Night, slightly cool.

The wanderer who returned home added a bit of excitement and festivity to the originally deserted and lonely road.

Father and son walked one after the other. Several times, the father wanted to stop his son, maybe the scene just left the father with shock, he was worried about what his son would do if he went down the wrong path, how would he go to see his mother in the future?

Yang Gang's back seemed to have eyes, or it was because of the connection between father and son, so he stopped and took his father's hand and said, "Dad, I know what you're worried about, but please rest assured, these are completely my normal labor income, no robbing of the house, let alone cheating, everything depends on your son's hands." ”

"......"

"Dad, you still don't believe in your son! I have taken the principles you taught me to be a human being since I was a child, and I have taken it to heart. ”

"But how can you have such a high income if you don't do illegal things?"

Seeing that his father still didn't believe it, Yang Gang felt that if he didn't make his matter clear, his father might be afraid and worried about his son in the future. It wasn't what he wanted to see.

After weighing, Yang Gang roughly confessed to his father what he had done when he came out of school, but the time he was injured had been omitted. After hearing that what his son did did not violate benevolence and morality, the worry on his face gradually subsided.

Feeling the stronger and stronger flavor of the New Year, the father and son walked side by side, arm in arm, in the direction of home, this scene in the eyes of passers-by, I don't know how many people envy.

Lunar calendar, the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month.

"Dad, you got up so early!" saw that my father was busy in the kitchen, and a few dishes were already set on the dining table in the living room.

"You didn't get home until three o'clock yesterday, I thought I'd call you when everything was ready, I wanted you to sleep a little longer, since you're up, then you wash your face first, and I'll start eating when I'll cook three more dishes." ”

"Dad, you make so much, it's not the New Year, can we finish eating?

"What are you talking about! I don't usually eat it, I wait until the New Year to eat, and I won't kill myself for that meal!"

"Eh, okay, listen to you!"

After breakfast, the two of them began to plan for tomorrow's dinner. Yang Gang naturally only has the share of hands, and with his skills, he may be okay to cook instant noodles, but it is estimated that he has to learn hard to meet the standards of the kitchen.

After a busy day, Yang Gang carefully counted the fruits of today's labor; he hadn't found it before, but now when he looked closely, he realized that his father had hidden a hand before. Plum cabbage button pork, braised pig's trotters, green onion egg rolls, etc. are readily available, and he can't help but eat a piece secretly, which is more delicious than the chef of the hotel.

After a tiring day, the father and son had dinner early and went to rest.

Lunar calendar, Chinese New Year's Eve.

I don't know which kid used the fireworks that were supposed to be night in the early morning. Under the call of an unknown child, the door of the house was opened, as if an alarm clock had been installed for every household, and there was no time to see any displeasure on the faces of these people, but more of a picture of smiling faces. When I heard the call of a woman or a man in the house, I knew that today was a special day, so I hurriedly said goodbye and went to take care of myself.

Yang Gang was no exception, he got up and simply washed up and pasted the couplets on the door, and the couplets were exquisite. It is also called "spring sticker" and "door pair", to the battle neat, concise and exquisite text to depict a beautiful image, express good wishes, the number of words up and down is not limited, but to be equal, both sides should echo each other, when people in their own door to paste couplets and blessings, it means that the New Year officially kicked off; The front door of ten thousand households on the day, always replace the new peach with the old charm. Sticking it on is a sign that the coming year will be prosperous and all wishes will come true.

Before I knew it, it was three o'clock in the afternoon, and the two of them counted the necessary items for the New Year, except for not putting the wine on the table.

"Dad, do you want to have a drink?"

"You're still young, drink it when you're older. ”

"I'm almost nineteen, I'm an adult, I can drink, today is the New Year, let's drink a little bit to increase the atmosphere. ”

Seeing that he couldn't resist his son, and on today's special day, his father also nodded in agreement, and after getting his father's approval, Yang Gang hurriedly ran to get a bottle of wine and came out, and immediately poured two glasses.

"Come, Dad, I toast you, you've worked hard for so many years!"

Hearing his son's words, his lips moved slightly, and he wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them again, raised his wine glass and drank it all.

At the dinner table, the father and son talked very happily. My father's words began to increase.

"Yang Gang, I'm sorry for you and your mother, I blame me for not being capable, so you haven't been able to look at your mother for so many years, you won't blame me in your heart!"

"How can it be, Dad, you are a father and a mother during your mother's absence, and you never let me suffer a little grievance, although we live in poverty, but I live very happily. It's really not easy for you, you may think about your mother all the time in your heart!"

Seeing that his father was deep in thought, Yang Gang continued: "Those people took my mother away from us, one day I will take my mother back, let those bad people pay the price, it will be." At the end, Yang Gang's tone became more and more firm.

"Son, you may not know their power, so don't think about it, otherwise it won't be good for us or your mother, and your mother doesn't want to see us hurt, you must not do anything stupid!"

"Dad, how could it be!" although he said this, he already had a plan in his heart.

When he felt the festive smell outside, Yang just found that this bottle of wine had bottomed out, and his father was already drunk and hazy, you must know that most of this bottle of wine was digested by Yang Gang, it seems that his father's alcohol volume has declined, or even the wine is sad, and everyone is drunk if the wine is not drunk.

After helping his father to bed and settling down, and after cleaning, Yang just walked out of the door. When I saw the usually sparsely populated alleys, at this time, there were villagers doing chattering in twos and threes, children, you chased me, what a lively scene.

"Yang just finished dinner! What about your father? Usually he comes out early at this time, what's wrong today?"

Feeling this most simple style, the right way is: distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Yang Gang smiled and said, "Uncle, today is not the New Year, my dad drank a few more drinks when he was happy, why didn't you drink a few drinks with your aunt!"

"I'm going to go to the street later, I can't walk when I'm drunk, isn't there a dragon dance performance in Jinji Square!"

"Okay, you can have a good time later, and I wish you all a happy new year and good health. Yang Gang said goodbye to him and the few people next to him, and then walked to the center of the city.

Along the way, there are people who have nothing to do after Chinese New Year's Eve dinner; looking at the buildings on both sides of the road, some windows are brightly lit, maybe some of them are sitting on sofas waiting for the annual gala, and some are family and friends gathering to talk about it.

An inexplicable melancholy welled up in my heart, in the past 18 years, I and my father have relied on each other, seeing others are a happy family, on this day of family reunion, I and my father were forced to come to this unaccompanied place, it can be said that there is a family and can not go back; a trace of sorrow and farewell wet Yang Gang's eyes, there is a way: men have tears and do not flick, but they have not reached the sad place.

When Yang Gang came to Jinji Square, it was said that this is Jinji Square, just because there is an ancient legend here. This county is said to have a Jinji Mountain in the early years (the specific time can not be verified), the mountain is high and the road is steep, it is difficult to climb with the strength of ordinary people, from the foot of the mountain to look up is always covered by a layer of clouds and mist, can not see its whole picture; and the top of the mountain every day there is a high-pitched and loud rooster crow comes out, and its sound is to cover the whole county. For so many years, there was a generation of medicine pickers who made a living, relying on their youth and strength, and learned the art of rock climbing from their ancestors, and came and went on the cliff with their bare hands. In addition, people talk about the treasure on the top of this mountain, get the wealth and wealth, suddenly came to the interest, one day under the attention of everyone, began to slowly go up to the top of the Golden Rooster Mountain; only to see him into the clouds, after a stick of incense only to see a rooster rise to the sky, straight into the sky, three roosters after the crow of the difficult to find. After the herb picker returned, everyone learned that after reaching the top of the mountain, they saw a chicken that was no different, but its eyes were very bright, and people were still too late, and they were trying to catch it home, only to see it fly into the air and disappear. And when the herb picker woke up the next day, he was like he had been in an evil spirit, and he was still holding a chicken in his hands all day, and a few years later, he was dead.

This story has been handed down from this, so many place names in this county are related to the Golden Rooster, and this is the origin of the "Golden Rooster Square".

Seeing that the Golden Rooster Square is now overcrowded, there are not many dragon shapes of different styles and half of the square are placed. Among them, there are teams from different places, and there are also teams composed of folk dragon dancers...... They all seemed to be holding back their energy and wanted to win a good place in this dragon dance competition. You must know that if you get the ranking, it is also an explanation for their own hard training for a period of time, and more will get more sponsorship, which provides a strong guarantee for competing for a higher ranking in the coming year.

With the beginning of the dragon dance performance, one by one the dragons seem to be alive, under the control of the dragon's head, high and low, swallowing and spitting letters, winding and rugged, all kinds of shapes are indescribable, and the cheers from the crowd come one after another, but also make those helmsmen excited, a more difficult, more wonderful dragon dance conference presented in the eyes of people.

Yang Gang was also carried away at this time, but when he saw the dazzling fireworks in the sky, he knew that the time had reached twelve o'clock. People here light a lot of fireworks at 12 o'clock at midnight, and those who can't afford fireworks will also prepare a few rolls of firecrackers.

"Jingle Bell"

Yang Gang looked at his phone, and it read: Manager Yuan......
