At night, Pan Dumb and Shang Tao slept together.

The next day, it was just dawn, and Pan was dumb to leave.

Of course, they were left with contact information.

There is a phone number, and there is also an address to write a letter.

Shang Tao took his address and said in amazement: "Yiming, you said it in the middle of the night last night, and I only found out this morning that the school you go to is the No. 8 Middle School in the city! You are really a genius to be the first in the exam in such a school!"

Yang Wanwan was slightly stunned when he heard this.

Shenshi No. 8 Middle School, as she knows in later generations, is a key middle school among the key ones.

How could a dumb man get into a school like that?

Pan smiled dumbly but did not answer, put away the gifts he brought back to the three sisters and brothers one by one, took the dried fish and bacon and tempeh specially prepared for him by Yang Wanwan, and strode away.

In the morning mist, Pan Dumb soon walked out of sight.

Last year, since Pan's disappearance, Liu Bamei has been insulting Pan's mute everywhere in the village.

After scolding for a few months, I gradually became less scolded.

The disappearance of Pan's mute did not make the people in the village feel anything unusual, and no one came to ask about it.

As soon as Pan was dumbfounded, the three sisters and brothers talked about their aunt.

Shang Tao said: "Auntie will be here tomorrow, I haven't seen my aunt for a long time! Auntie used to come back a lot, but in the second half of this year, I don't know what's going on, and there are fewer of them." ”

Erye also said: "Yes, my aunt loves the three of us the most." She hasn't been back for a few months, only brought some food, and there must be something very important at home that she can't leave. ”

Shang Tao said: "I guess, it's not a good thing. Otherwise, the eldest and second uncles bullied us so much, and she didn't come back. Grandma probably knows a little bit about it, and I guess I didn't tell my aunt much about things at home. ”

Yang Wanwan also fell into deep thought.

She tried hard to recall that at this time in her previous life, something happened to Aunt Yang, but she couldn't remember anything.

Next.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Aunt Yang and others came with their families.

The rest of the people naturally won't come to Yang Wanwan's house, Aunt Yang went to Grandpa Yang's side first, and then came to Yang Wanwan's house.

The daughters who go back to their parents' homes here are basically like this.

Aunt Yang took her daughter Hu Youjin and son Hu Youkai to give Grandpa Yang and Grandma Yang New Year's greetings.

Grandpa Yang asked, "Xiaojia, why didn't Aimin come today?"

Hu Aimin is a businessman, very good at saving face, if there is nothing else in the past, he will come to his father-in-law's house every year to pay New Year's greetings.

Aunt Yang's face flashed a hint of unnaturalness, and said: "He is a little busy in business, he can't come today, he will be free in a few days, don't be surprised, parents." ”

Grandma Yang seemed to be hiding something, and hurriedly said: "Business is important, business is important, come every year, it doesn't matter if you don't come once." Youjin, Youkai, come here, let grandma see, I haven't been to grandma's house for months. ”

Hu Youjin is the same age as Yang Wanwan, she laughs and chats with Grandma Yang, and she is very good at talking.

Hu Youkai is the same age as Erye, it is the age of naughty, dancing and gesturing, Grandpa Yang and Grandma Yang were amused by him.

Aunt Yang took Hu Youjin's sister and brother to pay a hasty New Year's greeting at Yang Dali and Yang Youneng's house, and then carried things to Yang Wanwan's house.

As soon as I entered the door, I greeted Yang Wanwan with firecrackers, everyone said auspicious words to each other, and after greeting the New Year, Yang Wanwan "crackled" and set off firecrackers to welcome guests.

Hu Youjin went into the stove house, "Bend, grandma said that you may have done it, I have to learn." ”

Aunt Yang also got in, and without saying anything, she checked the things in the kitchen, and was surprised: "Wanwan, this is all made by your sister and brother?" Ah, let me see, fat roosters, fish, meatballs, pig's trotters...... It's all there, it's all fresh and good! Okay, it's as capable as your mother! It's amazing! If there's anything else you need to help with, your aunt will do it. ”

As she spoke, Aunt Yang rolled up her sleeves.

What Yang Xiaogu said in her mouth was lively, but her face was pale, her body was thin, and her body was obviously not good.

Shang Tao said: "Auntie, you just have to wait to eat, you don't need your help, we are all done." ”

Yang Wanwan was cutting side dishes at this time, peppers, ginger, onions and garlic, and when he heard the words, he said, "Auntie, Shang Tao is right, everything is done." Shang Tao, you take your aunt and Youjin to eat fruit. Auntie, don't get your clothes dirty in the stove house. ”

Aunt Yang laughed, "Wanwan, the way you talk is really similar to your mother! Your mother is right, her hands and feet are nimble, she can do everything quickly, and she does it well." Now that you've got it all figured out, my aunt will be at ease for a while. ”

As he spoke, he sat down in front of the stove door, pinching the tongs, which was to light a fire for them.

Yang Wanwan stopped driving her away, she sat here and wanted to chat with Yang Wanwan.

Hu Youjin stood next to the big stove, looked at Yang Wanwan cutting vegetables, and said in amazement: "Wanwan, you can cut vegetables so well." I cut this ginger shredded, it's very thick. ”

Yang Wanwan said: "Practice makes perfect, I cut half a year's braised pork last year. ”

Chatting and chatting, Hu Youjin asked about Yang Wanwan's study, and heard that she won the first place at the end of the year, and became more and more happy.

Aunt Yang sat in front of the stove door, occasionally interjecting a sentence or two, but she seemed a little preoccupied.

She asked Yang Dali and Yang Youneng about it again, Hu Youjin and Hu Youkai were very angry when they heard it, and they all said that they would never go to Yang Dali and Yang Youneng's house again.

I shouldn't have gone just now for the New Year!

Yang Wanwan asked Hu Youjin: "Youjin, why didn't my uncle come?"

Hu Youjin couldn't help but look at Aunt Yang, and Aunt Yang said with an unnatural expression: "Oh, your uncle, he has something to do." ”

Yang Wanwan knew it in his heart.

Yang Wanwan tried hard to recall the things about his uncle and aunt in his previous life.

However, it was too long, she went to the capital at that time, and later she and her aunt also made occasional phone calls, but her aunt did not say anything to herself, so she had no way of knowing what happened between her uncle and aunt.

She only remembered that Grandma Yang once muttered on the phone, saying that her aunt was not in good health and needed a lot of money for treatment. At that time, Grandpa Yang said something next to him, and Grandma Yang stopped the topic.

After thinking about it, Yang Wanwan said to Hu Youjin: "Youjin, we haven't seen each other for a long time, don't go home today, how about staying at my house for a few days?"

Hu Youjin immediately said: "Okay, okay! Mom, I want to stay at Wanwan's house for a few days before I return!"

Aunt Yang was stunned for a moment and said, "I was going to stay for one night." ”

Only then did Hu Youjin remember that their family was far away, and they wanted to stay at Yang's house for one night every year.

When it was time to eat, after chatting for a while, Hu Youjin and his sister and brother helped Erye and Shang Tao arrange tables, chairs, benches and chopsticks.

Yang Wanwan called everyone to sit at the table, and she cooked alone.

After a while, she served with a bowl of fresh meat and small intestines with fungus.

Yang Wanwan put the bowl down on the table and said to Aunt Yang: "Auntie, today our family serves food according to the way it is served, and it is hot to eat." This is the first bowl, how about you taste the saltiness. ”

Qingshan Town sits on red and white ceremonies, generally serving eight to ten bowls of dishes, commonly known as host dishes. These dishes are not served at the same time, but one bowl after the other. The first bowl is almost finished before the second bowl is served, so that each bowl is guaranteed to be hot.

The dishes of the host dish are basically conventional, but there must be a difference between the actual banquet and this noon, depending on what the host prefers.
