It was Hua Ou who opened the door, and when he came in with a bunch of food, he saw Shu Jianhua lowering his head and about to kiss Hua Qi.

Hua Qi glanced back when he heard the voice, although he found that it was Hua Ou, but Hua Qi was still a little embarrassed, so he hurriedly stepped forward, took the things in Hua Ou's hand and said: "If you don't come back, I will go out to eat with Mr. Shu, and I will starve to death." ”

Shu Jianhua also reacted and said, "Oh, then Mr. Hua will go out to eat with us, the things I bought should not be broken overnight, it's okay, right?" ”

At this time, Hua Qi had already arrived in the kitchen, put down the jade pendant into his clothes, and then hung the gold pendant in his hand around his neck, and then said: "I see that Hua Ou bought a lot of things, or Shu always stayed and ate with us." ”

Shu Jianhua hurriedly borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, excused himself and left.

After Hua Ou and the others confirmed that Shu Jianhua had gone away, he asked Hua Qi, "What's the matter?" What is he here for? ”

Hua Qi replied lightly: "It's nothing, it's just to visit the door." ”

Hua Ou has been so helpless by Hua Qi recently, seeing that Hua Qi didn't say anything, he said: "Okay, I don't care, you can do it yourself." But I'm also telling you, not every man can accept your attitude. ”

Saying that, Hua Ou started to eat, Hua Qi was silent and did not speak or move, Hua Ou was right, this is indeed a problem. But the big problem can't delay the meal, Hua Qi snorted and sat down at the table to eat.

Approaching the end of the year, because Huaqi has annual leave, she has already started to rest a few days in advance. Because the company was busy, Huaou did not have a holiday until noon on the Chinese New Year's Eve. Hua Qi was waiting for him to have a holiday, and as soon as Hua Ou was on vacation, Hua Qi hurriedly urged him to go home.

Hua Qi had already bought many years of goods and gifts for relatives and friends, and the two of them couldn't hold so many things, so they called Hua Qi's cousin Hua Rui and asked him to pick them up. At about two o'clock in the afternoon, the two of them set out on their way home.

The countryside has always been much more delicious than the city in the New Year, every household has to prepare a lot of New Year's goods, people with good conditions will also kill pigs, first invite the whole village to eat, the rest will be kept for the New Year, often a pig is enough for a family to eat a winter.

But in addition to meat, he also needs a lot of things, and what Hua Qi bought back is these bits and pieces that must be used.

As soon as they got home, Hua Qi began to show off their "booty" with her mother, and Hua Qi's mother was very happy, Hua Qi was still her first stable job since graduating from college, and it was also the first time she used her own money to buy things for the family.

Hua Qi asked his father about the situation of his relatives at home, and Hua Qi's father said that it was very good, but when it came to Hua Qi's grandfather, it was a little unnatural, and Hua Qi asked what was wrong.

Hua Qi's father said: "Your grandfather doesn't know what's wrong, his body has been getting worse day by day since the beginning of winter, it's too sudden." You know that your grandfather's health has always been good, so you should go and see it on the first day of junior high school. ”

Hua Qi agreed, began to help her mother cook, a lot of time-consuming and laborious things Hua Qi's mother has prepared, only some vegetables need to be washed and washed, and then cut it, as for the stir-fry is not Hua Qi's turn, this Chinese New Year's Eve meal for three people is very simple.

After eating, it was dark, the children had nothing to do, most of them set off fireworks outside, there was no ban on fireworks in the countryside, and gorgeous fireworks bloomed in the night sky, bursts of firecrackers resounded all over the land, this is the most lively night of the year in the quiet countryside.

Hua Qi also wanted to find the memories of his childhood, go out to set off fireworks or something, but Hua Qi's father only bought some firecrackers, and kept them every morning and evening before dinner, and did not prepare extra firecrackers for Hua Qi to relieve her boredom, Hua Qi was depressed, so she went to play with Hua Ou.

Hua Ou was also very boring, and he didn't have anything to play, so they went out to find someone to play, and finally Hua Qi and Hua Ou found all their peers in the Hua family to get together, and then went to Hua Qi's house to play poker and mahjong together.

These two things are almost the only entertainment items for rural people at home during the New Year, the countryside is originally vast and sparsely populated, there are almost no entertainment facilities and places, and it is too cold in winter, so you can only play mahjong and poker at home.

Some of the people brought mahjong from home, and some brought poker. Fortunately, Hua Qi has a lot of brothers and sisters, and he is not afraid of not being able to get together manpower, but after the final assignment, Hua Qi and Hua Ou are alone.

Hua Qi was just preparing tea and snacks for everyone, and Hua Ou helped her. Hua Qi's parents had long gone out to "party" with other relatives, and this place became a world for their peers.

The people in Huajia Village are all surnamed Hua, and they are all relatives, and the relationship between each family is like a family, so this group of people played together late and no family came to look for them, so they didn't rush back until late. And Hua Qi's parents didn't say anything when they came back and saw it.

Later, it was almost twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, because Chinese New Year's Eve was to be kept at home, everyone dispersed in twos and threes, but they all agreed to play together in the next few days of the New Year. Hua Qi said yes and sent everyone out the door.

Although it was Chinese New Year's Eve, Hua Qi forgot to watch the Spring Festival Gala while playing, until everyone left and saw her parents watching, she leaned over to take two looks.

The next day, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Hua Qi went to his grandfather early in the morning to pay New Year's greetings to his old man. When she arrived, she found that many people had arrived, and she was late. After saying hello to relatives, Hua Qi went to her grandfather.

Hua Qi walked up to his grandfather and took a look, his grandfather's complexion was really bad, and what his father said was conservative. Seeing Hua Qi coming, the old man's spirit changed significantly, and it seemed that he still loved his granddaughter.

Hua Qi first said a lot of auspicious words to make the old man happy, and then chatted with the old man, chatting and chatting, and the old man talked about going around the nearby woods in the autumn and passing by a cemetery. Hua Qi's aunt said that this was unlucky, and said something auspicious during the New Year, so Hua Qi had to change the topic.

But Hua Qi still put this matter in her heart. Grandpa used to be in good health, and suddenly he became like this, something must have happened, and the answer to this matter may be found in the cemetery.

After chatting for a while, Hua Qi left. Not far from her grandfather's house, Hua Qi heard someone calling her, and when she looked back, she saw that it was Hua Ou.

After Hua Ou walked in, he said a few polite words, and went straight to the point: "In your opinion, did your grandfather see a 'good friend'?" ”
