The eldest aunt didn't wait for Xiaohu to speak, so she took the initiative to come forward and say hello: "Ouch! Little Tiger is here! It's all to blame for my aunt's absence from home and for not entertaining her! Come into the house and let my aunt cook for you! ”

Xiaohu's stiff face, he wanted to laugh but couldn't laugh, he squeezed a smile that was more ugly than crying, and said, "Don't bother, there are many things today, let's take my uncle away!" ”

When the eldest aunt heard this, she was anxious: "That's not good! How can you just ask your uncle to go over alone, and I don't go like anything? You wait for me, I'll change my clothes and comb and comb! ”

Xiaohu said in a cold tone: "We can't take you, we can only take my uncle and this grandson of your family with us." ”

The eldest aunt was not happy, but looking at the three horses, there was really nothing for them to ride. So he asked dissatisfiedly, "Since you have come to pick up people, why don't you take the lead and come with a donkey?" ”

Xiaolong muttered, "What kind of donkey does my uncle ride on a big man?" ”

Xiaohu glared at Xiaolong with his eyes, and didn't let him quarrel with a woman! Then he asked the uncle who was very embarrassed on the side: "Uncle, can you go?" ”★★.

Uncle nodded hurriedly, "It's okay!" OK! Then he pulled out the eldest grandson who was holding his thigh and said, "Da Mingzi, let go!" Ride a big horse with my cousin! ”

The eldest aunt wanted to be mad when she saw that Xiaohu Li ignored herself. But when I saw that there was a man in his thirties who was dressed luxuriously and elegantly next to him, he was standing aside with a smile on his face, a little embarrassed to be embarrassed in front of such a person, so he had to bear the unhappiness in his heart. He hurriedly said, "Oops! Wait a while, I'll wash Akiko's face, comb her hair, and change into a new dress. ”

The uncle also said, "Yes! Yes! Then I'll go in and change my clothes. ”

The eldest aunt shouted at the eldest uncle disdainfully: "What do you have to exchange!" Not all are the same! ”

The uncle said weakly: "Then I should also change to a clean one!" I'll wash it myself when I come back! ”

As soon as the eldest aunt looked up and saw Xiaohu staring at her with unkind eyes, she took her grandson into the house to change clothes and wash.

When my uncle came out, he wore a slightly better dress than just now. But there are still patches and patches, and there is a patch that is about to fall off, hanging under the armpits.

Xiaohu didn't say anything, just asked Xiaolong to take his uncle and Brother Chen to go first, and he waited for his uncle's grandson for a while, and then!

Little Tiger arrives home. Only the nurse took Wenchao at home, and the second girl went to her parents' house and didn't come back, Xiaohu wanted to pick them up, but the uncle got a letter to come over to accompany the uncle, and he was interrupted, so he had to boil water and make tea at home to accompany the guests.

After drinking two cups of tea at home, I went to the sunbath to watch the excitement. The third uncle went to the town to bring back all the pork from other people, but the result was not enough, so he had to quickly invite the butcher Xie to come over. Kill the pigs.

The place where the pig is killed is placed on the side of the drying field, and the adults and children are full of it this time, which is much more refreshing to see than in the small place in the yard.

When the pigs were killed, the screams of the pigs could not drown out the excited and frightened, nervous screams of the children, and the noise of the adults laughing loudly.

The uncle nervously held his grandson's hand, and his tilted body trembled slightly. Growing up, he didn't have the opportunity to watch pigs killed. The pigs raised at home have always been pulled directly by the pig butcher. When someone else's family kills a pig, he can't catch it. Because of disability. No one wanted to play with him, and no one wanted to let him in. He was standing outside the house, listening to the screams of pigs, the boiling of people, and the exaggerated screams of children, imagining the lively and excited scenes inside.

Today he could finally see up close, the pig was pressed by the crowd on all fours, dragged by the tail, and the butcher held the pig's head in one hand. Holding a knife in one hand, he stabbed the pig in the throat and pulled it out, and with a scream, the blood in the throat was like a blood-red arrow. A large wooden basin placed on the ground in front of it squirted out. Gradually, the limbs that struggled with all their strength twitched and stopped, until they did not move at all, and the butcher holding the pig's head let go of his hand, and the people who were holding the pig's leg and pulling the tail also raised their arms while laughing, shaking and relaxing.

When blood foamed from the pig's neck, the butcher asked the pig to remove the large wooden basin containing the blood, carried the pig into a large oblong wooden barrel, cut a small hole in the pig's leg, and took a small bamboo tube to the small mouth, and blew the pig to the swelling and swelling.

The uncle watched with great interest, and the original nervousness and fear were unconsciously left behind.

His grandson couldn't enjoy it, so he looked up and said to his grandfather, "Grandpa! Our family also kills pigs, okay! ”

Uncle nodded unconsciously, "Hmm! Good! Our family also kills pigs. Suddenly, he remembered that he couldn't count what he said, so he coaxed his grandson: "When I get home, I'll tell your grandmother that we will kill pigs during the Chinese New Year this year!" ”

The grandson happily added: "Then you must say it!" ”

When the pig's belly was broken, Erya came back with a large family of her mother's family, a team of lion dancers and flower boats.

When the children saw the colorful group, they gave up the excitement here, and they all rushed to the flower boat and the lion dance, touching this and poking that for a while. The invited artists looked at the children nervously, for fear that they would not be serious and break their props.

The adults came over to stop the children from touching blindly, and broke other people's things, and secretly touched them once or twice, wanting to see if the tiger head was really a tiger head.

The entertainment program is arranged for a period of time after lunch and before dinner, so those artists who come early are arranged to watch the props not be spoiled by the children, some try the sound of gongs and drums and suona, some go to the side to watch the excitement, and some go to inquire about the happy event of the Wang family today.

The big grandmother has brought people to eat on the table, and there are still people who went out to pick up relatives and haven't come back!

Grandpa Tai instructed the uncle: "You go first and ask the guests who come first to eat the first trough, the tribesmen in the north eat the second trough, our own family eats the third trough, and the guests who come later will catch up with which trough and which trough!" ”

The uncle answered, and went to arrange. Standing in the center of the drying field, he shouted at a few piles of people watching the excitement: "The guests invited by each family have all served on the table to eat, and the guests will be the first to eat!" The people of the Northland will have the second table, and our own family will eat the third! ”

Seeing the lively children, they all ran to the table that had already been set up and sat down, and some adults followed their children to sit next to them. Some sat with people they knew well.

Nowadays, it is no longer difficult to buy alcohol, and the price is not very expensive, so two jars of liquor are placed on a dining table, and some children are hungry for wine, while the adults have not yet served it. has already secretly drunk a sip of spicy liquor, sticking out his tongue spicily, while spicy to the children around him, making trouble, and playing with each other.

This banquet is different from the regular wedding banquet and the children's nine-day banquet, just like the usual dinner, there are no balls, thousands of pieces, and large pieces of meat, and these dishes that must be served to please the tone do not need to be served one by one in order.

Today, the dishes are all home-cooked dishes that everyone usually eats. What braised pork, shredded chili pork, chili eggs, braised chicken nuggets, rice noodle goose, rice noodle meat, mushroom stewed chicken, etc., when serving, it is also cooked and served, two dishes at a time, and four dishes are served. Everyone is just eating and drinking.

The uncle kept saying loudly: "You all eat and drink well, don't worry!" It's still early! ”

Because the woman and the child did not drink, they got off the table as quickly as possible, and then put the men who were still drinking. Make a table and let them continue drinking. The table that is vacated here continues to be placed in the second slot.

This time the men all sat together, the woman and the child did it together, and Father Shi looked at the four large jars of liquor on the table (two of which were taken from the woman and the child), and his smiling eyes narrowed into a line.

Aunt Shi was a little uneasy when she saw her grandfather like that. He went behind his back and said, "You can't drink too much today, otherwise this will be a big shame." ”

Daddy Shi nodded and agreed: "Hey! I know! I don't drink much, I don't drink too much. ”

Aunt Shi returned to her dinner table with confidence and ate with everyone.

Uncle Xiaohu originally wanted to get off the table when he ate well, but he was pulled by Erya's father. I had to drink a few more glasses. Because he usually doesn't have the opportunity to drink, even during the New Year, he also touches his lips, so the amount of alcohol is very small, and he drinks a little too much after only three glasses of wine. When he was dizzy, he saw his mother-in-law coming over, and he was so frightened that he suddenly woke up.

Hurriedly greeted him, pulled his mother-in-law and whispered: "Why are you here, you, you can't make trouble today!" ”

Before the uncle finished speaking, the eldest aunt rolled her eyes and shouted in a low voice: "Who said I came to make trouble?" I'm here for dinner, you've already eaten? Still drinking? ”

The uncle replied, "Yes! We are the first to eat, and my niece and daughter-in-law's father wants to drink two drinks with me, and we haven't finished the table yet, so you can either see if there is any vacancy and sit down to eat first. If not, wait for the third slot, and there are many people behind who have not yet been served. No hurry! ”

The eldest aunt waved her hand, "Okay!" You don't have to worry about me, I know how to find it myself. ”

She turned around, and really found a vacant seat, sat down and ate, the people of the North did not know the relatives of the people of the South Land, so no one made a fuss.

By the time the family members in the south come to the table, the relatives who should have come have already arrived, and after this slot is finished, you can put away the dining table and stools, clean up the venue, and let the lion dancers and flower boats play!

Of course, the family will not chew and swallow slowly, and the children have already eaten in the first two troughs, all of them are adults, and after eating in a hurry, they will clean up the table, get out of the way, and give the jugglers the play.

First of all, there are no women among these artists, men and women, young and old, all of them are dressed up by men with specially made headgear, costumes, big flowers, and makeup.

The child is a man wearing a large helmet made like a smiling doll, and in the front, one left and one right, front and back.

The old woman is a big man with a big red flower on his head, wearing a red and willow green costume, and his cheeks are rubbed red, which looks funny and festive. The boat gang holding the girl, holding a flower handkerchief in one hand, twisting his ass and shaking his head one after the other while playing tricks.

The girl is also a man wearing a red costume and a princess tiara, her face is red and rubbed with rouge powder, and she is shyly holding the two gangs of the flower boat, lowering her head and following the steps of the old woman outside, swaying one after the other.

Followed by a large group of children from the Wang family and children from relatives, they learned to twist their buttocks, shake their heads, and play tricks, and in the end, they made those who originally watched the flower boat turn around and laugh at the children playing treasure. (To be continued......)
