Look! Penji got a really big incense. Let's paste the new couplets! Is your teeth still causing you pain? Yes. How come? Are you eating a piece of candy, dear? No. Does it hurt a lot? It's swollen. Take some medicine. I'll paste them. OK. Burn them and get rid of the bad luck from last year. Let's light this big incense. Can you stick it in that, grandma? Yeah. Wealth and prosperity. Penjie! Thank you. If you hadn't gone to town today, I'd have had to get it myself. You tied it so tightly! I have to. It's too heavy. Be careful. OK. Let's see if they're still alive. They were sent from a distant place. It's opening and closing its mouth! I've never seen that before. Be careful. Don't get pinched. It does have eight legs. Uncle Aping, take it! I'm scared. I'm scared too. Oh, dear! What's this? It's not a lobster, is it? It's a crab. This is a crab with eight legs. Here you go. It's really big, about 1.5 kilograms. If you don't secure the pincers properly, they could injure your fingers. I'll get rid of it. Too bad. You can't eat this big crab today. Why's that? You have a toothache. I must eat it even if all my teeth come out. Oh, my! I've never seen that before. Let me cook them, grandma. Old man, can you guess how much they cost? Aren't they nice, grandpa? Very nice. Come on. I'll take them away. Sis! Are you back? Yeah! Where's Dawang? He's at the shop. I don't think it'll survive much longer.

It can be used as a bowl. I'll grab some for grandpa. Grandpa, here you are. Try it. Can we eat this? Of course. Is it good? I've never eaten anything like this in my life. How can it not be good? It's delicious. Let me have a piece of it. Gosh, the thorns are so hard. So many thorns. Here, Axia. It's for me? Yes, I've shelled it Eat it. Penjie, it'll taste better in the spicy hot pot. No. Just eat it like this. Here, Uncle Aping. It's so good. So much meat. Yeah. Eat more. It tastes like lean meat. Lean chicken? Yeah. New Year arrives. It's 2024. Come on. Cheers. Happy New Year! Grandma, have some pork belly if you don't enjoy the lobster. OK. Give it to me. How many pieces are there? Have all the three pieces. This year, we are all wearing simple clothes. That's not true. Dad and grandma are wearing similar scarves. Grandma will have a lot of energy after eating the meat. Later, she may pick peas instead of going to bed. Here's a piece of lobster for you. Guys, try it. Have a try. Is it good? -It's sweet. -Good? Very good. Take your time to eat, Uncle Aping. Why are you all asking? He hasn't even tasted it yet. It's so tender. I love this. Yeah. It's very fresh and sweet. Is it good? Great. Good? You see, I've finished all the meat and the shell tastes great too. It's tasty. Have some sliced raw fish. It's also very good. That's the best. Have a try. I can't eat that much. Eat till you're full. Is it sweet? Yeah, it's sweet. Give some to grandpa. Is it supposed to be sweet? Uh-huh. Axia! Let's have mushrooms! It's so beautiful I'll have one too. I don't think anyone can cook hairtails better than I can. I can't describe the taste. It's the taste of mountain and sea. Just bite it. I have a toothache. So much meat! So much meat! Why is it empty? No! Do you want to dip it in vinegar? Does it taste good? Ahao, that's a special way to eat it. He doesn't dip anything. It's all fish and meat. I want some fruit. Have some hawthorn fruits. Here, Ahao. You should try a little bit of each dish. Come on. -Come on. - One more drink. Grandpa, one more. One more drink. Cheers! Happy New Year! 2024
Wish you good health!
May all go well with you!
