The young and middle-aged people in the village have arrived, and Huang Yishan and others have already come over and are eager to try, even Huang Xiangdong is no exception.

"Xiao Shang, do you want to play, it's fun. ”

Boxes of firecrackers are put aside, a small hanging five yuan, the prizes of previous years are bicycles and electric vehicles, this year is also simple, they are all mobile phones, the most expensive one is Apple X.

The rules of the siege of the artillery city are very simple, set up 1-2 guards of the city, the number of siege "gunners" is not limited, at the beginning of the siege, the gunners will be the firecrackers they bought in advance to ignite, aimed at the artillery city, who is lucky to throw the firecrackers on the city wall to trigger the cannon on the city wall, causing the explosion of the artillery city, it is the winner, you can get a rich reward.

It is rumored that the game evolved from the activities of the ancient military camp, when Zheng Chenggong trained the sailors in southern Fujian, and the general Hong Xu created this game, allowing soldiers to throw, practice aiming skills, and improve combat ability.

Many of the origins and legends of Whitewater are related to this big man.

The siege of artillery city is spread in Baishui Prefecture, Yizhou area, Chongrenli is no exception, every year from the first day of the Lunar New Year to the fifth day of the new year, Chongren has the program of attacking artillery city.

Don't look at it as a small gamble, some people will spend one or two hundred yuan and may not be willing to leave.

The young adults stood very close, the children moved forward despite the obstacles of the adults, and the female audience was afraid, most of them were far away, and Huang Yixi was no exception.

Huang Xiangdong and the others were on the playground just now, and only Shang Luoyu accompanied Huang Yixi to stand on the hill behind the playground.

Watching many gunners light all kinds of firecrackers, or single or in a string, from the bottom to the top of the "city wall" throwing, for a time, 10,000 cannons bombarded, firecrackers crackled in the air from time to time to explode, paper flowers flying, wisps of white smoke drifted with the wind, it was very spectacular.

Huang Yixi's heart also beats.

It was not easy to storm the artillery city, wave after wave of people were defeated again and again, and there were a few successful, the crowd of onlookers shouted and cheered for the gunners, and as soon as someone succeeded, everyone feasted their eyes.

"Wow, this is the golden turtle mushroom", Huang Xiangdong wanted to take advantage of the chaos, but was pulled by Huang Yishan to Huang Yixi's side, and several other children also followed.

"How do you know?" The surroundings were too noisy, and Huang Yixi could only shout loudly.

"I've seen the master doing this, tying countless rat cubs (i.e., thin pipes of oblique reed bamboo filled with pyrotechnic ingredients) on a bamboo ring the size of a rice sieve, and connecting them with a powder core. ”

Before Huang Xiangdong's voice fell, Huang Xianglan had already shouted, "The little uncle threw it, the little uncle threw it." ”

After Huang flashed over, he dragged Shang Luoyu off the field, he looked at it for a while but quickly mastered the skill, at this time the burning fireworks thrown in the fire turned into the image of an immortal, and the bundle of paintings in his hand suddenly unfolded downward, showing a big "Shou" word.

This is not easy, although there is no age, gender and number of restrictions on the siege gunners, but this activity requires eyesight, hand strength, intelligence and courage to work closely together, but also to have good momentum, although someone throws it, but the luck is not good, the lit firecracker is about to blow up the "city wall", but unexpectedly there is a "sandwich squib", people often sigh.

After Shang Luoyu threw it, he stepped back and received the prize, although he was not a grand prize, but he was also an Apple 7, when he was looking for Huang Yixi to show off, he didn't see her, and asked Huang Xianglan to know that Huang Yixi went a little farther away to answer an important call.

What phone is so important, Shang Luoyu was a little strange, walked in the direction pointed by Huang Xianglan, and after a while, he saw Huang Yixi coming over after answering the phone.

"Give. Shang Luoyu directly stuffed the Apple 7 into Huang Yixi's arms, "Didn't you say that you wanted to buy a new mobile phone for your aunt, this time it will be saved." ”

Huang Yixi is not polite, take it over and enjoy it, she has an apple 6P in her hand, 128G, the memory is enough, and she doesn't want to change it.

The two of them glanced at each other and smiled, neither of them had the idea of using it well and then eliminating it to their parents.

The two of them no longer went back to the playground, sent a message to Huang Xianglan, and turned back.

"Who is Director Chen?" Shang Luoyu asked casually when he heard that it was this title that came to call.

Huang Yixi told the leader he met when he went to open the certificate again.

"I don't know what he thinks, he insisted that I take this case, he urged me to go to Songjiang Mansion as soon as possible, and talk about it while his brothers and sisters haven't gone to work yet, to see if I can solve it privately. Huang Yixi was a little distressed, she didn't want to take this case, and planned to take her mother out for a walk the day after tomorrow.

All year round, my mother is bored at home alone, and even the New Year can't be relaxed.

"Look at you, what a big deal, let's go together, I'll drive you and your aunt together, when you get to Songjiang Mansion, you go to do something, I'll accompany my aunt for a walk, and when things are done, we will slowly play all the way back." Shang Luoyu said with a smile.

On the way to Chongrenli, he knew Huang Yixi's plans, and he also planned to go out for a walk and cultivate his feelings.

After so many years, he couldn't help it.

Huang Yixi's eyes lit up, "Then why don't I talk to my mother, and we'll leave tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow?" Shang Luoyu hesitated a little, "Tomorrow is son-in-law's day, won't your aunt come back?"

Baishui Prefecture folklore says that the second day of the first lunar month is "son-in-law day", and all married daughters must go back to their parents' homes with their sons-in-law and children, who are known as "half sons", on the second day of the first lunar month.

There is a proverb: "There is a father and a mother, and there is no father and no mother to fight for the burden" which means that the daughter-in-law whose parents are still alive will definitely come to pick her up in the second and third years of junior high school to be a "guest".

Chinese people like to compare, children will show off the New Year's money received at their grandmother's house, and sons-in-law are more subtle, at most joking with each other, "Have you gone to your mother-in-law to touch your head?" ”

Shang Luoyu was surprised that on such a day, why Lin Shufang, the most polite mother-in-law-to-be, didn't go back.

Speaking of this, Huang Yixi couldn't help but sigh.

Lin Shufang's maiden family is actually much higher than the Huang family's ancestors, but due to the lack of Ding, it has declined.

Lin Shufang's grandfather was a "piglet" who was sold to Southeast Asia, and he stayed up in Yangon for decades, knew several Chinese, and also did the work of selling "piglets", and later cross-border trade and even private remittances and other businesses, the family property was quite rich, it is said that the government in Yangon at that time did not have a car, they were all rented from him.

You must know that it is not easy to send money privately, going abroad is the prototype of Western Union decades later, and the "piglets" who go abroad are not normal procedures, and the money earned is naturally impossible to return through normal channels, so you can only go to the underground bank, which will test the character of the boss of the bank.
