Chapter one hundred and forty nine

In the first lunar month, it is a day for friends, to eat, drink and have fun, and women cannot use needles and threads. People who have been busy for a year can have a real rest at this time.

On the third day of the first lunar month, Jingya and his wife returned to their parents' home, and the Xu family was all together. The old man and the old lady looked at the children and grandchildren in the room happily, feeling infinitely satisfied. The old lady ordered to make more delicious foods Mingyu sent so that everyone could taste them.

So, a lot of seafood was added at the lunch banquet.

Jingya and his wife stayed at the Xu family for a few days, and they didn't return to the Yue family until the sixth day of the lunar month. Chen wanted to keep them for a few more days, but Jingya was a little disgusted, so Pengcheng said it would be better to go back to the Yue family. The old lady was not good to keep them anymore, so she brought them a lot of delicious food and some supplements, and sent them away.

Wanting came back this time and had not seen her parents yet. So when she saw Jingya away, Zhixiang took Wanting and her children to the county in a carriage. Qingnian and Huixin lived in the Xu family for a lot of time, so they also said goodbye and went home. Zhide and his wife had dinner here during the day and went back to their own house to stay at night. After these people left, the room at home was still more relaxed.

On the seventh day of the lunar month, every household has to make dumplings. Everyone didn’t go out on that day and were all at home.

When the eighth day of the lunar month was about to go back to the village, the old man said he wanted to go back to the village, so a family of more than ten people returned to the village in a ox cart. Of course, everyone had to go to the old man's cousin, Xu Chengyuan's house first. At Xu Chengyuan's house, both sons led their daughter-in-law and children to their parents' house, and there were only two old people left in the house.

Of course, there were endless things to say when my cousins ​​met, so a few old men sat on the kang and chatted. When Xue and the others saw that there was no one else at home, they could only do it themselves? Prepare food and other things. Fortunately, they prepared a lot of food when they came, so they were not too busy.

"The head of the family? Take the children out for a walk and go to the village chief's house and to wish you a happy New Year's greetings to the village chief's house and several other families who have got along with us. Then tell them to ask them to come to our uncle's place for a drink at noon. We can come back a day and a half a year, so there will be less time for the villagers to meet in the future. Don't lose all the previous relationship." Xue entered the house and said when he saw Zhixin.

Zhixin nodded, "Okay? Then I'll go now." As he said that, he led the boys like Wen Han and the others out.

"Boss? Wait a little while, have we brought a lot of things, some of which are for the villagers. Do you take it? This New Year's Day? Bring some rare things? Let's try it out." Chen called out Zhixin.

"Hey? I understand, mom." Zhixin agreed and went out. When he came to the outer room, Xue found the prepared things. In fact, there was nothing? It was the dried seafood sent by Mingyu, such as shrimps, scallops, etc., each store had a pack of them? Let everyone try it.

Jinghan couldn't sit still in the house. She told Chen that she wanted to go out for a walk. How many girls are there in the village? They got along well before, and it was rare to come back and they had to meet them. I don't know if they are here or not.

Jinghan led Jingwan and Jingxian to the Lin family first. On the second day of the lunar month, Lin Xing's family took their family to Xu's family. Jinghan also met Zixuan and Yumei and had a meal together. Logically speaking, Zhixin should have brought his family here today, but they rarely went back to the village, so they had to go to other people's houses first. Fortunately, the relationship between the two families is very good, and no one cares about this.

By chance, He took his child back from his parents' home yesterday, and he was all at home now. Jinghan and his friends entered the yard and happened to see Ziwen playing with firecrackers in the yard. "Ziwen, we are here, are we uncle and aunt at home?" Jinghan asked.

"Oh, Sister Jinghan, you are here. My father, my mother, and my brother are all at home. Come and come and go into the house with me." As he said that, Ziwen quickly packed up the firecrackers in his hand and led Jinghan and the others into the house.

In the room, the old man and the old lady of the Lin family were also there. After the Lin Xing family split, the old couple lived with each son for a year, and it was the turn of Xing family this year.

When the Jinghan sisters entered the house, they first gave the old man and the old lady a gift, "Grandpa Lin, Grandma Lin, happy New Year."

"Oh, okay, all are fine. Sit down, look at the girls of the Xu family, they are all so beautiful, it's really painful." The old lady quickly called Jinghan and the others to sit down. The old couple already knew about Zixuan and Jinghan's marriage, so they became even more enthusiastic about Jinghan.

Zixuan and Yumei were also there, and Zixuan's eyes were always on Jinghan. Although he had met in the second year of junior high school, this person who was in love wanted to see his lover every day.

"Let's eat here at noon. Let's go and call Xiaoxiu and Xiaojuan. You guys have a day off. Xiaoxiu and Xiaojuan have also been engaged. Maybe they will get married in autumn, and it will be even more difficult to meet at that time." He naturally wanted to get along with Jinghan more, and his son's eyes were always on others.

"Auntie, it's really not OK today. My father will probably be able to come here later. Today I will serve wine at my grandfather's place and let everyone in the village drink. Let's do this, go to my grandfather's place first. When our family comes to my aunt's house alone one day, we will be more lively. Anyway, there is still some free time in this first month." Jinghan said with a smile.

Before Jinghan finished speaking, Lin Xing's family came in outside, "Wife, I'll go to Uncle Xu's place for dinner at noon today. Brother Zhixin and the others have all come here, and I want to let me go." Lin Xing's family entered the house, and then found that Jinghan and the others were also there. "Oh, it turns out that Jinghan is here. Haha, okay, you sit down, I'll go to your grandpa's place first. I've discussed with your father just now. The day after tomorrow, your family will come here, let's have fun together."

Jinghan quickly agreed. "Since Uncle Lin and my father have agreed, that's fine. We all come at that time, and aunt must prepare some delicious food."

"Oh, okay, my aunt will definitely make some special dishes for you to try." He agreed with a smile, and then turned around and told Xingjia, "Don't drink too much when you go out. You have been drinking all these days, be careful."

Xingjia didn't say anything, but turned around and said to the old man, "Dad, you can go with me too, let's go."

The old lady of the Lin family glared at Xingjia, "Your father can't drink. He will feel uncomfortable after smelling the wine in his life. Don't you know?" The old man fell into the wine cellar when he was a child and almost drowned. After that, he couldn't touch the little wine.

Xingjia scratched his head and smiled. "Mom, am I happy? Haha, okay, then I'll leave. You guys can have dinner at home." As he said that, he went out.

Jinghan and the others sat in the Lin family for a while, and then they were going to find Xiaoxiu and the others. Yumei followed Jinghan and the others out, and everyone walked to the east end of the village to find their former friends.

Xiaoxiu didn't come back after leaving. Xiaojuan was at home. Everyone chatted at Zhao's house for a while. Jinghan guessed that the house might be about to have dinner, so she took Jingwan and Jingxian to say goodbye to Xiaojuan, and then returned to the Xu family.

At Xu Chengyuan's house, Xue and the others had already cooked almost all the food. When Xue saw Jinghan coming back, she asked Jinghan to help put the table on and prepare for the meal. The Xu family's table was not enough, Wen Han ran to the neighbor's house next door to borrow two tables, and then placed two tables in each room, and then they all sat down.

Xu Chengkuan and his cousin sat at the same table, with Village Chief Zhou and the old men from the Wu and Li families, who were all the same age, and everyone chatted together.

"Not to mention, Brother Xu and the others came back this time, and they felt like returning home in glory. At the beginning, the family had a lot of things and even sold the house and land. Now they not only bought a house in the town, but also bought land. This life is dozens of times more than before. What if they say, thirty years from Hedong to Hexi in thirty years. Look, now, there is a juren, two scholars, and a serious scholarly family. Zhixiang has become an official outside, and these juniors have to take the scientific exam. If they get another Jinshi, it would be really amazing." Zhou Village Chief sighed.

"It's thanks to everyone, right? We didn't even have a place to stay. If we hadn't been for the village to visit us, we wouldn't have known that we would be squatting in the corner." The old man smiled.

"Brother Xu's words are wrong. If your family doesn't go to visit the village, our village will not be able to go up one by one? In recent years, you have not lost any sticks on the mountain, but also boiled water and hot rice for everyone. It's a lot of convenience for us. Last year, the venue changed places. Many people in our village thought that you made money from visiting the village and wanted to go to the mountain to visit the village. But, this work is not that easy to do. Look at the Erlu family, who went to visit the frozen skin last autumn, but what happened? In less than two months, they couldn't stand the hardships on the mountain, so they quarreled to stop working. This year, they had to find another person to open the village. Alas, I'm so worried that no one can work so sincerely like the eldest brother's family." Village Chief Zhou sighed. The Xu family was on the mountain and really didn't have to worry about anything in the village. Now that people have changed, they really have to worry about it.

Xu Chengkuan couldn't say anything. Now his family does not need this fee for attending. The entire venue will be launched next year. The old man is not going to let his sons suffer again, so he can't help the village chief. "The village chief doesn't have to worry. Erlu is a little uncontrollable, so it's better not to need him. This job of attending is actually not too troublesome. As long as you can steadily sit on the mountain. Besides, it's only one year before, it's only about two thousand feet long, so it's so beautiful." Anyway, it's impossible for his family to go to another area to visit the village chief.
