At this time, Liu Yuanhe walked out of the hall again, and glared at Liu Qingshan angrily: "You go away." ”

Liu Qingshan thought it was funny, he just wanted to help his mother dye her hair, why did he still attract such a big reaction from you.

Wu Cuimei saw that her son didn't seem to understand, so she taught: "Qingshan, when your grandfather died, who arranged your grandfather's clothes and hair?"

Liu Qingshan recalled a little confused, frowned and replied, "My dad." ”

As he spoke, he woke up from a dream and suddenly said, "Oh, what age is it now, why are you still superstitious?"

There is a local custom that children are not allowed to comb their parents' hair. Only after the parents have been 100 years old, when they are buried in the coffin, can the children comb their parents' hair.

Therefore, in normal times, parents in the mountains do not let their children comb their hair to avoid bad luck.

"If you don't do it, don't do it. Wu Cuimei said and glanced casually at the bare head of Liu Yuanhe behind her from the mirror, and said, "Tomorrow Panwang Festival, there will definitely be many guests at your third uncle's house." ”

"You go, I don't go. Liu Yuanhe spit out three words sullenly?

"Why don't you go?" Liu Qingshan smiled evilly, "I bought you a new mobile phone, you can just use it to show off." ”

As he spoke, Liu Qingshan took out a box from the bag. The box was so beautiful that the old couple had never seen it.

As soon as she saw the box, Wu Cuimei was surprised: "Even the box is so beautiful, isn't the mobile phone very expensive?"

"It's not expensive. Liu Qingshan opened the box, took out a mobile phone from it, and shook it in front of him, "More than a thousand, Dad, don't forget to give money." I bought it for 1,000, and you have to give me at least 1,000 dollars. Otherwise, don't think I'll teach you how to use it. ”

"Che, I want you to teach? Liu Yuanhe was disdainful.

Wu Cuimei asked, "Then will you go tomorrow?"

"Don't go, say nothing and don't go. The hair has been made like this stinky boy, how can you go?" Liu Yuanhe was very resentful, and glared at his son again, "Don't think that if you buy me a new mobile phone, I will forgive you." ”

Liu Qingshan said with a smile: "If you don't go, you won't go, as if someone is begging you to go, tomorrow my third uncle will ask me why you didn't come, and I will say, your hair is burned, and you are embarrassed to go out." ”

"You dare?"

"You see if I dare. ”

In fact, today is the fifteenth day of the tenth month of the lunar calendar, according to the practice of previous years, today is to make glutinous rice cakes for the festival. But because this year, the uncle said that he would not come until the winter solstice, so he will not do it today. The family simply ate some yam stewed chicken, braised fish, egg custard, stuffed tofu, braised pork and so on.

After all, I have to go to the third uncle's house tomorrow to help, so there is no need to make it too complicated.

......

The third uncle's house is not very far from Xishan Village, a total of more than a dozen kilometers away.

If you don't take the village road, if you take the mountain road, you can go over the mountain in front of Liu Qingshan's house, and then climb a few mountains one after another, and you can also reach the village where the third uncle went to the door.

The village was quite large and populous, and Xinjie Town was a relatively large village, with a population of several thousand.

Liu Qingshan rode a motorcycle, and when he arrived at the third uncle's house, before he could stop the car, the two cousins ran out cheering.

The eldest cousin should be twenty years old, slim and elegant, although a round and full face is not as three-dimensional as a TV star, but the immature face, white and delicate skin, and doll-like clear eyes are also incomparable to most TV stars.

As for the little cousin, she is still in high school. The appearance is not much different from the eldest cousin, but it looks a little darker and thin.

As soon as the two guys saw Liu Qingshan, they pounced, hugged the broken motorcycle that Liu Qingshan was riding, and rummaged through it.

Wu Cuimei smiled: "Oh, you two stupid, what's so good about this broken motorcycle." ”

When Liu Yuanjiang heard the movement, he hurriedly greeted him: "Sister-in-law, you are here, come into the house and have a cup of tea." Eh, where's my big brother? Didn't my big brother come?"

"My dad burned his hair from stir-frying and refused to go out. Liu Qingshan smiled evilly.

Liu Yuanjiang followed and smiled: "That's okay, you kid is here, you're busy today." ”

"Big brother, where are the gifts?" After rummaging for a moment to find something that they didn't understand, the two girls crossed their waists and stood aside, staring at Liu Qingshan.

During the Spring Festival, this big liar came to the house, but he didn't buy a gift, saying that he had forgotten it, and said that he would definitely buy it next time. But I didn't buy it this time.

"Last time you said you would buy me lipstick. The eldest cousin grabbed Liu Qingshan's arm and pinched it fiercely.

Liu Qingshan screamed in pain: "Oops, I forgot, I forgot." Buy it next time. ”

"Next time?" the little cousin picked up his arm and bit him hard.

Wu Cuimei heard the screams, walked out with a bowl of hot tea, and saw that her son was bullied by her two cousins quite embarrassed, and couldn't help laughing: "Look at it, this is retribution, you always bully your father at home, and the two cousins can be regarded as seeking justice for your father." ”

Liu Qingshan looked at his mother with a dark face: "Mom, who is your biological child?"

"You two go to work, have you washed the vegetables?" Liu Laosan saw that the two daughters were pestering their nephews and abusing their nephews, so they burst into a loud shout, which frightened the two girls and fled.

Liu Qingshan rubbed the tooth marks on his arm that was almost red, and said, "This girl is really ruthless." I'm going to see blood on my arm, third uncle, you have to treat me well at noon today. ”

"Okay, okay, you go get some tea, and then help me chop up the pork bones, and invite you to drink queen bee wine at noon. ”

"Hehe, you still know me, third uncle. ”

The third uncle's family is not very wealthy.

At least, in this place with a large population and a higher per capita living standard than Xishan Village, the third uncle's family is not wealthy, but can only be regarded as a middle and lower level.

But even so, the third uncle's family still built a two-story cement building.

The cement building is built with burnt red bricks, and the floor is poured with reinforced concrete. This is a very common building in the local area. Only the kind of small villas with beautiful tiles on the exterior wall and various flowers and plants planted at the entrance of the courtyard are relatively rare.

The third aunt is cooking oil tea in the kitchen with an induction cooker at this time. The old mother sat aside, holding a bowl, and looked at the third aunt's kitchen with envy.

The third aunt's kitchen is not very big, but it has everything.

The modern gas stove is inlaid with a dark and shiny marble cabinet top, and there are also electric appliances such as rice cookers, electric water heaters, and induction cookers.

A straight faucet sits between two sinks, and a range hood sits above the gas stove.

In addition to these common kitchen appliances in farmers, in the kitchen of the third aunt, there are microwave ovens, electric cookers and so on, which are relatively rare in rural areas.

Wu Cuimei drank tea, looked at the third aunt's kitchen, and asked enviously: "Your kitchen should have spent a lot of money just to buy these things." ”

The third aunt is about forty years old, taller and fatter than Wu Cuimei, and naturally younger.

She has neat short hair and a plain red striped blouse, which makes her round face quite shiny.

When a smile hits the corners of her mouth and eyebrows, it will give people a very warm and peaceful feeling.

"It doesn't take a lot of money. The third aunt said, "It's less than 10,000 yuan in total." ”

"10,000 yuan is not much. Wu Cuimei opened her mouth slightly, thinking in surprise, I don't know when I will have such a kitchen.

Women, especially those who like to cook, always want to have a more perfect kitchen.

Although the earthen stove at home is also used very well, when Wu Cuimei looks at the third aunt's kitchen, she still can't help but envy and can't help but fantasize, if she can also have such a kitchen, how good it would be.

The third aunt laughed: "Other things are not expensive, that is, the cabinet and refrigerator are a little expensive." ”

"Oh, I see. Wu Cuimei looked at the induction cooker, rice cooker and other things in the kitchen, and her eyes almost popped out of stars.

Liu Qingshan squatted next to the faucet at the kitchen door, cleaning the pork bones. He saw his mother looking at the third aunt's kitchen with starry eyes, and thought of his father's hair being burned the day before yesterday, and suddenly had an idea in his heart.

After a while, the other guests of the third uncle's family came one after another, and everyone was busy.

Liu Qingshan and the third uncle are in charge of the kitchen, the two cousins are in charge, and the third aunt and the mother are responsible for greeting these guests.
