Chapter 233: Year after Year

It has been proved that the couplets written by Wang Gong are still quite popular. Who said that the peasants were rewarded, they unanimously agreed that Wang Gong's handwriting was more pleasing to the eye than the fat man.

Just because of the two words that are pleasing to the eye, the fat man was squeezed out of the calligraphy world, and like Qiqi, he became a member of the miscellaneous team, helping to cut paper and pour ink.

The fat man was also a little indignant: We can't take care of other people's homes, and we still have the final say in our own homes.

So I found a vacancy, took out the red paper I bought, snatched the brush from Wang Gong's hand, and the fat man also waved it: the heirloom is only thick, and everything is strange but straightforward.

Wang Gong was also full of praise: "Good couplet, it is most suitable to be posted in the fat man's house, but this word is a little ugly." ”

The fat man was angry and decided to buy ready-made couplets next year.

However, in the end, the fat man still got a consolation prize: Wang Sanpao personally invited the fat man to his home and wrote a picture to worship the three generations of clansmen. It's just that except for Wang Sanpao's family, it is not enough to be an outsider.

Although he was hit a little, the fat brother is famous for his heartlessness, so where will he take it to heart. On the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, the fat man called the boss of the car, and together with Captain Li, went to the goose factory to comfort the comrades who stuck there.

By the way, also bring that flower-faced fox and become a member of the rat hunting army. In other words, this flower-faced fox is more alternative, and it is not salty or light to others, and even Qiqi's influence on it is not obvious, but it is just a little affectionate. There is no such thing as Mao Mao or Wei Wei and Stupid, who are extremely attached to Kiki.

According to the fat man's speculation, this may have something to do with the fox's nature, and in addition, maybe it also once possessed charm and was more resistant. In short, it became a maverick member of the fat animal family.

In order to repatriate Honghong. Naturally, Kiki sat in the carriage as well. She reached into her little hand into the warm red hair. The mouth keeps admonishing. It's like beating a girl out of the house.

The flower-faced fox squatted on top of the carriage. Crystal eyes staring at the reckless snowfield. In the opinion of the fat man. Its gaze seemed to be incomparably deep.

What a freak! The fat man sighed in his heart. He even doubted. It is possible for the flower-faced fox to escape the grasp. Become a member of Daqingshan Land again. But. If only that were the case. It is also the place where the fat man hopes. So he didn't care.

There are mainly some New Year's goods in the car. Most of the land is used for eating. There is also a bag of frozen dumplings. It is specially for Li Liuye to pack the land. Because the family is not complete. You can't make dumplings at the goose factory. And the thirtieth night and the first day of the new year these two dumplings. That's essential. No matter how poor you are. This can't be dealt with either. Yang Bailao was poor back then. I have to weigh back two catties of noodles for the New Year.

After more than two hours of travel. The carriage arrived at the goose factory. Kiki led the flower-faced fox to jump out of the car first. Immediately attracted a dog bite and noise.

Monkey ran out to take a look. Surprised: "Strange." What are you doing with a vixen?"

"With you. The fat man happily took over.

"No, Honghong is also here to catch mice, it's amazing. Kiki patted the flower-faced fox on the head, squinted his eyes, and wagged his big fluffy tail a few times, and then began to wander around the goose factory, like a monarch patrolling his territory.

"This guy won't catch ducks and geese to eat, right?"

At this time, Cheng Lei and Li Liuye also came out, and Captain Li led everyone to move things, melon seeds, sugar cubes, frozen pears, frozen persimmons, etc., a lot. In the end, Qiqi also took out more than ten strings of sugar gourds and handed them to Li Liuye: "Sixth grandfather, this is for you to eat." ”

Li Liuye opened his mouth, revealing a mouth full of open teeth: "Haha, Sixth Grandpa's teeth, I'm afraid I can't gnaw this thing." ”

Qiqi patted his cerebellum, and then took out a handful of sorghum syrup from his pocket: "This is a gummy, specially brought for the sixth grandfather." ”

The folds on Li Liuye's face are all happy: "Good girl, more filial than my granddaughter." I'll just say, Qiqi is so loving to animals, let alone people, I don't know who will be blessed in the future, please Qiqi as a wife. ”

Kiki blinked wide, and then jumped up and ran towards the barn, and at the door of the barn, several small heads had already poked out. It seems that this girl is still too young, and she talked about marriage a little earlier.

The New Year's goods were all moved to the house, and the fat man took out the colorful paper from it and told everyone to stick the lantern rod. The lantern is also a ready-made red gauze lamp, which the fat man has prepared for a long time.

In addition, the couplet Fu character hanging money, including New Year's paintings, etc., are a full set, the same lot. Even the firecrackers are well prepared.

Cheng Lei took the firecracker and looked at it and was happy: "Fat brother, why do you still ask us to release a little foreign whip?"

This is the smallest kind of firecracker, half an inch long, as thick as a matchstick, and it is generally put by a little baby or a little girl under the age of ten. When Qiqi celebrated the New Year last year, he also put two small foreign whips.

The fat man smiled evilly: "It's good to have this, if you put up two kicks and hemp thunder, it is estimated that the ducks and geese will be frightened, and what if you are so scared that you don't lay eggs at the beginning of spring?"

When the lantern pole was erected, the goose factory, which was originally slightly desolate, immediately had a bit of a New Year's atmosphere. Kiki ran out of the barn, looked up, and exclaimed, "It's so high."

It turns out that the pine pole used to make the lantern pole is still the ground left when building a house, which is similar to the flagpole, and the trees on it are also large

The lanterns are hung high, the golden ears are flying in the wind, and the whole goose factory is scarce.

The fat man scratched the back of his head, thinking in his heart: Well, it's a bit of a new Dragon Gate Inn.

When I came back from the goose factory, everything was done, and I was waiting for the New Year. This year's backer is very different from last year, and many people's lanterns have also been replaced with shotguns, and the original candles have been turned into electric lights.

The first place to do this was the fat man's house, Wang Gong pulled a flower thread out of the crack in the window, connected a lamp head, and screwed a 50-degree bulb.

At night, when the lights are turned on, it is bright, attracting adults and children to watch. The next day, Wang Gong was dragged by a large group of old ladies to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy wires and lamps and other things, and after coming back, he went door to door to pick up the lights, as if he became a bright messenger.

Qiqi and Yaya also began to prepare the portable lantern, Qiqi's canned bottle lantern last year was still hanging in the warehouse, and it could be used when it was taken out and scrubbed, but when Wang Gong saw it, he immediately shook his head again and again. He found a thin wire, connected a battery to a small light bulb for a flashlight, removed the switch from the old flashlight, and made two "small lights".

The light bulb hung inside the can and bottle, and the switch was fixed on the small wooden stick carrying the lantern. When it was dark, I went outside to swing around, and when it was lit up and extinguished, it was like two fireflies, and I saw that the two fat men were smacking their lips vigorously, and they were so envious that they were dying of envy.

In the end, Er Feizi coaxed the lantern that Qiqi eliminated last year, and then stopped. Qiqi came back in a circle, and begged Wang Gong to make one, and sent it to Erya, who dared to love Erya and wiped her tears at home.

Seeing this change, the fat man was also very happy: this is the manifestation of the progress of life, although it is only a small change, but after all, it is in the direction of light.

Compared with last year's Chinese New Year, the fat man's house is also much more lively, with more Lin Qingshan and Wang Gong. The fat man is like the head of the family, eating, drinking, and Lazar, all of them are in front. Originally, this house was his.

On the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, as soon as the firecrackers were set off, the people who relied on the mountains began to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new. Year after year, year after year, year after year, everyone has a rush in their hearts, their faces are beaming, and the old and young are smiling haha, this is the New Year, a festive and lively life.

After breakfast, the fat man assigned the task, Lin Qingshan brushed the rice, Wang Gong was responsible for hanging the word Qian Fu in the house, the fat man was responsible for the couplets outside and the joy when he went out, Qiqi and Yaya were like a marquee, passing back and forth.

In the blink of an eye, the house and the outside of the house took on a new look, and the two girls shouted vigorously: "New Year's Day-"

They both mixed up in new clothes, with bows tied in their pigtails, and even the clumsy and hairy ones were also dipped in a lot of joy.

A handful of hair was pulled up on the clumsy head, and then tied with red silk, dressed like a wolf grandmother. This guy is still beautiful, forgetting that he was originally a "son".

Mao Mao and one of them mixed with a vest and pants, and it was one-piece, and after wearing it, they also looked like dogs.

The only bad thing is that there are always firecrackers, Mao Mao is fine, I know that when I cover my ears, Da Mao and Er Mao are a little miserable, and as soon as the cannon fights go off, I will tremble. Later, Kiki got some cotton balls and stuffed them in their ears, which made them feel better.

Even the howling in the yard went into the kennel for the first time, and when the fat man saw it, he simply led it to the chicken farm, where it was relatively quiet.

After dinner, the fat man and the three adults began to make dumplings, Qiqi found a few steel and threw them on the panel, and then carried the lantern to go out, but Erya came first, holding a new weapon made by Wang Gong, and his spirit was vivid.

"Kiki, my grandmother told me to tell you that if you take a few strokes on the threshold, you will grow taller next year. I've finished carrying it all, and I've grown a lot. Erya simply told Qiqi about a traditional custom.

It is said that there are also some interesting customs in the local New Year, such as carrying the upper edge of the door frame on Chinese New Year's Eve twice, children can grow taller, and for example, girls and guys are a little older and can't find a partner, when the mother will ask them to move the meat oil jar, take its meaning of moving meat (moving marriage).

When Qiqi heard this, of course, he also thought it was funny, so he and the girl grabbed to reach the upper edge of the door frame, but the two girls were indeed too short to reach the door frame.

The fat man and Lin Qingshan went out in person, the fat man held Qiqi, Lin Qingshan hugged the girl, and the two little girls finally dangled a few times on the door frame as they wished.

After Kiki jumped down, he shouted that he wanted to compete with Erya. The two girls stood together, and the fat man judged them.

The fat man is most willing to mess around with the child, and after shouting to stand upright, he bent down on the cat, looked at this happily, smiled at that, and finally slapped his face: "One side is high." ”

The wizard didn't believe him, and pulled Lin Qingshan to judge, Lin Qingshan glanced at it and said, "It's still a little taller." ”

"Last year's Chinese New Year, I was still one piece taller than Erya?" Qiqi's eyes widened, a little unconvinced.

"You little girl has a long heart, no one grows up fast. Lin Qingshan teased her.

But when they heard the fat man next to him, everyone looked at it, only to see the fat man frowning, staring at Qiqi, with a contemplative look on his face, and suddenly, he asked Lin Qingshan thoughtlessly: "Do you think I'm getting younger and younger?"
