Chinese New Year's Eve
The clouds and mist rose at the foot of the Xiling Snow Mountain, the sky was very blue, and the pale golden sunlight sprinkled down from the branches, shining warmly.
Cheng Yun sat on the wooden bench and munched on melon seeds.
Old Man Cheng walked out of the back room, holding two hoes, one large and one small, and he handed the big one to Yin Nuxia: "I'll tell you, you have to hollow out the taro and bamboo shoots around first, so as not to dig them out." ”
"Gotta get it!"
Yin Nuxia carried the hoe on her shoulder.
The old man was already very old, and he handed the rusty mini hoe to little Lori, and laughed wrinkled into piles.
Little Lori didn't answer, but stared straight at the old man and tilted her head.
The old man was still smiling kindly.
He already has a certain understanding of Xiao Lori, this granddaughter-in-law's little cousin is so beautiful that she doesn't talk to her, but her personality is very cold, she doesn't pay attention to ordinary people talking to her, and no one can touch her, but Cheng Yun is an exception.
"Take it and play with it, this is what Cheng Yun played when he was a child. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Lori turned her head to look at Cheng Yun, and sure enough, she was interested and took the little hoe.
The small hoe is less than half a meter long.
It's so cute in the hands of little Lori.
After that, Cheng Qiuya took the two of them out to dig taro and winter bamboo shoots, and the three of them lined up in a column, from tall to short.
Cheng Yun did not forget to advise: "Dig more." ”
Yin Nuxia answered.
Little Lori also glanced back at him.
And the old man was angry with him: "You are too lazy!"
"I'm diligent. ”
Cheng Yun was still snorting melon seeds.
Beep beep.
This year, all the staff of Anju Hotel have come back for the New Year, as well as Boss Tang, who used to be diagonally opposite and is now next door. Little Lori turned into a human form and became Boss Tang's little cousin, because her father went abroad, so she has been following Boss Tang and Cheng Yun recently.
They came back 26.
On the same day, I went fishing and birds, and played all over the mountain.
27I went to a hot spring.
28 went to the town to catch up, ate hot and sour noodles, popped popcorn and cannon barrels, and bought fireworks.
Yesterday I went to the mountains and had a barbecue.
There are many fun things to do in the countryside, and the brothers and sisters at home have returned, which is even more lively.
It took about half an hour for the hoe trio to come back with a sack.
Yin Nuxia put it in front of Cheng Yun, opened the bag and showed it to him, and asked, "Is it enough?"
There are more than half sacks.
The taro and winter bamboo shoots are very complete, and none of them are rotten.
"That's enough. ”
"Hey, hey!"
Little Lori put down the little hoe, walked to Cheng Yun's side, wrapped her hands around his legs, and looked very well-behaved without saying a word.
Cheng Yun reached out and touched her hair, peeled off a melon seed and fed it to her, and at the same time said to Yin Nuxia: "Go kill a ** again, pick a big one that looks more delicious." ”
"Okay!"
Yin Nuxia has endless energy.
Cheng Yun also put down the melon seeds, clapped his hands, and looked down at the little Lori who was still holding his legs: "I'm going to start getting busy." ”
Little Lori looked up at him.
Cheng Yun patted her hand: "Let it go......"
Little Lori let go.
Cheng Yun walked to the kitchen.
Little Lori also followed.
Old Man Cheng smiled when he saw it, and said to Boss Tang: "Your sister is so sticky to Cheng Yun." ”
Boss Tang nodded: "She likes Cheng Yun." ”
……
Cheng Yun was too lazy to move.
According to Old Man Cheng's prediction, the hot and cold dishes prepared by their family yesterday will definitely not be eaten in a day or two, enough to eat until the first day of the new year - in previous years, the old Cheng family was like this.
But this year there are more variables.
So they are now going back to cooking, and there is a serious shortage of raw materials.
Cheng Yun pondered, wouldn't it be nice to cook two dishes less, and make one big pot or two large pots for each dish, which can save a lot of effort?
Thinking so, he also lowered his head and asked Xiao Lori's opinion.
Of course, little Lori nodded.
So it was decided.
A big pot of sauerkraut fish, a big pot of taro chicken and bamboo shoots roast beef, and then go to the street to buy some cold dishes and steam a retort of rice.
Perfect!
The afternoon sun was pleasant, and although it was winter, it was already possible to take off the coat. Cheng Yun took advantage of the weather to take a shower, and when he came out, he saw Cheng Qiuya and Miss Yu Dian playing badminton in the dam at the door, while Tang Qingying, Boss Tang and Cheng Yan were kicking shuttlecocks.
Yin Nuxia and Little Lori stood at the door and watched.
Seeing Cheng Yun come out, Little Lori immediately ran over again, standing beside him and grabbing his pants.
Cheng Yun came out of the Taishi chair, picked up the little Lori and put it on his lap, watching them play while basking in the sun.
Laughter spilled all over the floor.
Suddenly, I don't know what Cheng Qiuya thinks, she actually invited Yin Nuxia and Xiao Lori to play together. Yin Nuxia couldn't ask for it, and Xiao Lori also picked up the racket with Cheng Yun's encouragement.
The little girl chose to kick the shuttlecock.
An hour later.
Cheng Qiuya sat silently on the edge of Cheng Yun, watching Yin Nuxia and Xiao Lori go back and forth, she was a little tired of waiting.
An afternoon flies by in the blink of an eye.
After dinner, Yin Nuxia played with fireworks in the dam, Yu Dian's little girl leaned on the door to watch her play, and the rest of the people sat in the hall, eating snacks and chatting and playing with mobile phones while listening to the Spring Festival Gala.
Check out interesting programs when you come across them.
If not, it's the background music.
Time passed slowly.
Until there was a faint sound of fireworks exploding outside, Yin Nuxia poked her head in from the door: "Stationmaster, when are we going to set off fireworks?"
Cheng Yun looked at the time: "Just now." ”
After speaking, he patted the little Lori.
Little Lori immediately got off him.
Cheng Yun got up and walked upstairs.
Little Lori followed.
In an instant, the hall was empty, and everyone gathered on the roof of the building, staring at the two barrels of fireworks.
Cheng Yun took out two lighters, handed one to Yin Nuxia, and the other to Xiao Lori, and patted Xiao Lori's head.
So two people, one big and one young, stepped forward and lit fireworks.
"...... Bang!"
Huge colored lights exploded in the air.
It was divided into countless small fireworks, which rattled.
It's beautiful.
"Bang!"
The roof of the building was illuminated for a moment, and soon it became dark, and more than a dozen faces looking up were reflected in a colorful light.
Cheng Yun felt that Boss Tang next to him was holding his hand.
On the other side, there was also a hand quietly stretched out, grabbed one of his fingers and held it in the palm of his hand, the palm was soft and warm.
As soon as Cheng Yun turned his head, he saw Tang Qingying looking up at the sky intently, the fireworks exploded, and the brilliant light was reflected in her eyes, judging from her expression, the movements in her hands seemed to have nothing to do with her.
Cheng Yun retracted his gaze, and pretended not to know.
But suddenly, Tang Qingying's question came from his ears again, and the heat spat on his ear: "Brother-in-law, isn't the sting exciting?"
Cheng Yun: ......
Sorry, didn't hear that.
The fireworks end quickly, but there are plenty of small fireworks.
Half an hour later, everyone went downstairs.
Cheng Yun saw that Yin Nuxia was blushing and seemed to be very excited, and he asked, "What time do you go to bed at night?"
"I don't sleep, I'm going to play all night!"
"Firecrackers are going to be set off at the door at twelve o'clock, will you put them?"
"Okay!"
Yin Nuxia agreed.
Cheng Yun pursed his lips, he was no longer interested in the Spring Festival Gala, so he bent down and picked up the little Lori and said, "Little Lori is sleepy, I went upstairs to coax her to sleep, you can play." ”
Little Lori's eyes were bright and she let him hold them.
Boss Tang continued to sit and chat with her second cousin, and when she went upstairs to the room after eleven o'clock, Cheng Yun, who coaxed Xiao Lori to sleep, had already fallen asleep on the bed, and Xiao Lori was still sitting on the edge of the bed playing with her mobile phone.
Boss Tang walked up to Xiao Lori and squatted down, took out a red envelope and handed it to her: "For you, Happy New Year." ”
Little Lori took the red envelope and stared straight at her.
Not long after, the second cousin also came to give out red envelopes.
After giving the red envelope, she wanted to reach out and pinch the little Lori's face, but the little Lori dodged it, and she couldn't help laughing: "I can't buy you for the red envelope, I don't know how Cheng Yun coaxed you." ”
Boss Tang also smiled slightly: "I don't understand either." ”
"The weather forecast says it will rain tomorrow. ”
"Really?"
"Yes, it's raining here, and it's definitely snowing on the mountains. The second cousin was a little envious, "It would be nice if it snowed here too, I haven't seen snow for a long time." ”
"It's so cold in the snow. ”
"It's pretty. ”
"Yes. ”
“……”
The two of you are talking about it sentence by sentence.
Little Lori pinched two red envelopes, and her eyes wandered over them.
The countdown on the TV is gradually approaching zero, the bell rings in the early morning, Old Man Cheng is lying on the sofa and drowsy, Yin Nuxia pushes open the door with a slight movement, and looks up.
"It's snowing!"
"Ruixue Mega Year!"
Yin Nuxia snatched this sentence out of her mind, she grinned, and took out the lighter.
The firecrackers have been laid.
Yin Nuxia found the lead at a glance, but just as she leaned over and was about to ignite it, the lead burned on its own!
Scarlet sparks popped up and snorted.
Yin Nuxia did not retreat but advanced, and instantly turned her head to look upstairs, only to see that half of her little head was rapidly retracting.
"Too much deception!"
"Bang ......"
The sound of firecrackers rang out from house to house.
It's a new year.
Many firecrackers were shot at Yin Nuxia, but they were blocked by an invisible barrier, she secretly gritted her teeth and went back to the room, if it weren't for the room where the little thing slept with the station master, she would have to find her to theorize well!
