Chapter 84 It's New Year's Eve
The busy days always pass very quickly. In a blink of an eye, it was the twelfth lunar month again. The weather gradually became colder. At the end of the winter month, Jinghan asked Zhiming to tell the restaurant that the yield of mushrooms may not be that good in the twelfth lunar month. Sure enough, when the twelfth lunar month came, the mushrooms were sparse than before. Jinghan also understood that this was because of the cold weather. Even if there were too many burns in the house, the warmth of the house was too poor, so the temperature still couldn't be raised. This cannot be solved for the time being, so it can only be like this. These mushrooms have also produced mushrooms that have been almost two months old, and it should be stopped for a while. In the past two months, I have earned almost thirty taels of silver just by selling mushrooms, which made Jinghan very happy.
Wenhan and his school started holidays from the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, and Jingya all returned to the mountain. Huixin's mother-in-law, Jinghui gradually grew up, and Huixin asked Jingya to come back for the New Year. Jingya has been in the town for almost a year and can only come back occasionally, so when she meets her family, she is naturally very intimate. Wenxuan and Wenchang have left home for such a long time, and when they get home, they hold Chen and refuse to let go. Chen is also happy and uncomfortable when he looks at these grandchildren.
"Okay, don't mess with your grandma there. It's not until the 20th day of the first lunar month in your school. There is time for home, so we make these new clothes first. It's the New Year, let's make two new clothes for you." Xue was holding needles and thread in her hand and was making clothes for the children. This year, the family is rich in money, so the old lady said that she would make two sets of clothes for everyone, especially for the children, who must make the materials.
Wenhan looked at the two younger brothers, "Didn't you say you want to see the mushrooms grown by Jinghan? Why don't you go with me to take a look?"
When the two little guys heard this, they quickly went downstairs to see the mushrooms with Wenhan. When they arrived at the two houses, Jinghan was still burning the fire wall inside. Wenxuan hugged Jinghan and said, "Sister, I'm back."
Jinghan looked at Wenxuan. This little fat man was still the same and didn't see much weight. "Wenxuan, Wenchang, how are you doing in the school? What have you learned?" Jinghan rubbed Wenxuan's face. The fleshy feel was so fun.
Wenxuan saw that he had become a toy delivered to the door, so he quickly ran aside, "Second sister, why do you always play with my face? I hate it." Wenxuan looked at the mushrooms, and there were sparse small mushrooms on them, with bright yellow little heads, which looked very cute. "Sister, are these the mushrooms you grow? It's quite fun."
Wenhan, Wencheng, and Wenchang were also looking at the mushrooms. Wenhan looked carefully at the mushrooms, then looked at the mushrooms on them, and touched the small mushrooms with his hands. "I really didn't expect that you could really grow mushrooms. These mushrooms should be very good, right?"
Jinghan nodded and talked about the benefits of this mushroom. "Brother, I want to get a few more mushrooms next year. In addition, I also need to plant black fungus. This kind of fungus is much better than looking for them everywhere, and the amount is also larger. There is no need to make this fungus in winter. If it grows in summer, it will be dried and sold in winter." Jinghan said his thoughts.
Wen Han looked at his sister. When Jinghan talked about making money, his eyes shone. Wen Han couldn't help but smile. It was said that poor children had become a family, so Jinghan could say that this was the case. Because the family was poor, the first thing this little girl thought of when she saw something was exchanged. It was because her mind was thinking about making money all day long that she could come up with such good ideas. "Jinghan, you have lost weight again, and our family is getting better now, so you don't have to worry too much. Eat well and grow more meat is the real thing." Wen Han looked at Jinghan's slightly thin cheeks with some distress.
Jinghan felt warm when she heard the elder brother's words, "Brother, why am I losing weight? I am greedy for growth. Didn't you see that I am taller again?"
Wen Han gave Jinghan a blank look, "You are just talking too much and you are greedy for a long time. Okay, go back to the house over there with us, Jingya is back. You haven't seen each other for a long time, Jingya misses you very much." Wen Han rubbed Jinghan's hair and said.
"The eldest sister is back, why didn't you say it earlier? I miss the eldest sister." When Jinghan heard that Jingya was back, she ignored everything and was about to go out.
"It's so furious, why don't you put on thick clothes first? If you go out like this, you won't be frigid?" Wen Han grabbed Jinghan and put on the clothes hanging on Jinghan, unable to help but mutter. "You, you have always been in a prosperous and prosperous life, so can't you be more stable? Don't do this in the future. What's the best thing if it's frozen in the middle of winter?"
Jinghan listened to the elder brother's chant with a smile, and knew that the elder brother felt sorry for him. He put on his clothes, tied the cloth buckles on it, and then went out with everyone, closed the door, and returned to the house where he lived there. As soon as Jinghan entered the house, he saw Jingya. Jingya was making clothes with Xue and the others on the kang. Jinghan jumped onto the kang, hugged the elder sister and stopped letting go. "Sister, you are back, I miss you so much."
The two sisters haven't met for a while, so they chatted together. Jingwan and Jingxian also came over. The four girls returned to their house and laughed and made fun of each other.
When the Chinese New Year is coming, the family naturally has to be more busy. This year, they are spending the Chinese New Year in the mountains, so Zhixin and others often go to the town to buy New Year goods. This year, their family life is good, so Chen said that they should have a rich New Year and everything should be prepared. This time, the children are so beautiful that the girls want flowers and the kids want fucks, and they shout at what they want one by one.
Chen and the old man looked at the children and nodded constantly to meet their small requirements. This year, the family was pretty good. The children wanted some small things, so they naturally bought them all. So Zhixin and Xue went to the town and pulled a lot of things into the house.
This year, my family raised two pigs. Chen said that he would kill one during the Chinese New Year and the other would kill the other until the spring is over. Zhixin at home would kill pigs. On the 16th day of the 12th lunar month, I caught the big pig in the pigpen and tied it to a long bench.
Living in the mountains, we naturally cannot invite relatives and friends to eat pig-killing vegetables. Chen left some meat and asked Zhixin to take the time to bring it to the town to give Zhide and his wisdom.
On the 18th day of the twelfth lunar month, a few people suddenly came outside, and were driving a carriage. Wenhan and Wencheng went out to check it out. It turned out that Zhixiang sent someone to deliver the New Year gift. The people outside were still the ones who gave the gifts back last year.
Wenhan quickly asked everyone to come in, and everyone moved the things in the car together, and then led the way in to see the old man and the old lady. "Old man, old lady, Mr. Xu is very good in the south. The magistrate has been there for almost three years, and there will be a promotion next year. So Mr. Xu asked us to bring us back, saying that if we have a chance next year, we will definitely come back to see you two. He also said that he must take care of himself. Mr. Xu often talks outside."
When the old man heard that his son was good outside, he let go of his heart. "Okay, go back and tell him to do it well. A real man naturally has to do something for his career. Don't worry about his family, we are all very good."
The old lady had prepared the money long ago and asked Zhixin to give it to these people. "You have worked hard enough when you come back from a long distance. You have a little bit of heart. It's the New Year, make a pot of wine." The old lady said.
Those people were all here last year, and this time they didn't refuse. They thanked the old man and Chen directly, and then said goodbye. Zhixin sent them out of the venue and then came back.
There were several large boxes on the ground, and there were still various southern items. Everyone looked at the things in a similar manner, and then Chen asked everyone to choose a few. The rest of the things, Chen stayed, preparing to leave the favors. "We live in the mountains and have little contact with them. The families in the village get along well, waiting to take the time to go back and take a look, and walk around each other. In addition, the Yue family and the manager of Baiweilou in the town should send some things over. We don't have these things, they are all rare things. I think they are good things to keep for people."
The old man nodded after hearing this, "Yes, you should think more thoughtfully. You must not neglect these relationships. Okay, you can do this just by doing it. No need for too heavy gifts. They are all rich and noble families. No matter how valuable they are, they can still be better for others? Just those novel things and the local products on our mountain, and don't make people feel that we are currying favors." The old man instructed.
The next day, Zhixin and Wenhan drove the ox cart to the town. They first went to Yue's house. When Yue Pengcheng's father Yue Siyuan heard that it was the Xu family, he quickly asked someone to invite Zhixin and his son to the living room, and then asked someone to call Pengcheng. When Zhixin and his son came in, Yue Pengcheng's father welcomed them very enthusiastically. "Brother Xu, hurry up, invite him to sit down. Come on, have some good tea."
Zhixin and Wenhan both sat down, and Wenhan handed over the gift list. Yue Siyuan took the list and looked at it, then smiled and said, "Brother Xu, look at you, why are you doing this? Pengcheng brought back some good things last time. You are also very bitter on the mountain, so don't spend so much in the future."
"It's okay, they are all things on the mountain, and they don't spend any money. They are all made on weekdays, so they are not valuable." Zhixin smiled, "By the way, this time I sent them, there are ten kilograms of fresh elm and yam mushrooms. This is what the little girl planted without any trouble, so she can keep it for Brother Yue to taste fresh. Don't put this outside, as it will be bad if it's frozen." Zhixin reminded.
Yue Siyuan just glanced briefly, but he didn't see it. After hearing what Zhixin said, he quickly asked someone to go out and take the mushrooms in. When the servant brought the mushrooms in, Yue Siyuan was surprised when he saw them. "Brother, this is really amazing. It's really strange that it's so strange that it can grow such fresh mushrooms in the middle of winter. I think the mushrooms sold in Baiweilou these days are given to your family, right?"
