As soon as all the pickers arrived at home, the eldest aunt began to distribute the fish to be given to the relatives, and stuffed a piece of red paper on the fish's mouth.

Before going to bed, I also told the children to get up early tomorrow morning to deliver fish to each family!

At the same time as sending the fish, he also informed them that on the 29th, Xiaohu was going to move, and invited them all to come over and drink housewarming wine.

On the twenty-ninth day, because everyone was busy preparing the New Year's meal, they basically came in a hurry, just had a housewarming meal, and left in a hurry.

Erya didn't have any other ideas, but she felt that she was really embarrassed to make trouble for them when she was so busy.

Her mother and sister also left in a hurry, and the two younger brothers followed and ran away.

Her grandfather and father were at her house, looking very carefully.

"Two girls! Why didn't you find your basement!? "When her father heard that Erya's family had built a house with a basement, it was very novel.

But looking left and right, there is no shadow of the basement, and I am in a hurry!

The second girl hurriedly took her father to the kitchen, pointed to the hole in the pot stove, and the person sat on the wall where the fire was burning, and said, "The basement of this Westinghouse enters from here, because it is only three feet high, so you have to enter it with a cat's waist." ”

Er Ya pushed open the small door, (this door is a sliding door, different from a door with a hinge) first bent down sideways to enter, and then asked her father to follow.

"Daddy! Be careful, there are steps. ”

As soon as her father saw the black hole inside, he said, "It's too dark in here, it's not convenient to take things or anything, you!" I usually put a candle holder in the place at the door and light it before entering the door, wouldn't it be good! ”

The second girl hurriedly responded: "Yes! I haven't thought of it yet! ”

By a little light from the small doorway, I saw that the inside was big and flat, and it was really different from the hole dug out.

"Second girl, when Dad's Songhua Egg earns enough money, and Dad also builds such a house, you have to help find a master. Ay! That's right! There's something you don't know yet, right? ”

Erya asked: "Huh? What's up? ”

The second father replied: "I heard that the master who used to help your family make furniture is now very busy, and the job is scheduled for the next year." ”

Erya bent down and walked out of the basement, and reached out to pull her father out.

"You can rest assured, no matter what the master, as long as it is built according to my drawings, it doesn't matter if it has to be a certain master.

Besides! If you have that clever master, you can see it, so why do you have to hang yourself on that tree? ”

"Hey! You can't say that! The master who has done it is always reassuring! After all, the dowry is only once in a lifetime! ”

Erya nodded in understanding, but too! It is normal for people here to use a set of furniture for a lifetime, but it is not like changing furniture and decoration at every turn in later generations.

As soon as Erya came out of the basement with her father, her grandfather came to her and said that the fireplace in that house was good, and that he would help him build one too.

Erya replied: "There is no problem with helping you make a fireplace, you can do a good job in the flue, that is, when the smoke comes out, you have to make a hole in the wall, and our earthen wall may not be easy to do!"

There is also this gate, you see the double door I use, the outside is a large wooden door, and the inside is a mulberry paper door that can transmit light, which is for the dual role of keeping warm and taking light.

So, if we want to do it, the door frame will also have to be redone, although it won't take a lot of trouble, but I'm worried that our earthen wall can't stand this toss! ”

The second father said to his father next to him: "Dad, if you bear with me, we will be able to build a house like this next year, and we will bring my mother back to live when we bring it up." You can't keep the two of you separated like this. ”

In fact, this old man, the old lady lived with her eldest son, and when she ignored him, she was very annoyed at first.

Later, I regretted it, and I kept thinking about taking the old lady back, but I couldn't wipe my face.

There is also the fear that the old lady is unwilling to live with him in the second son's house, the old lady adheres to traditional habits, and it is reasonable for parents to live in the eldest son's house.

The old man was awkward, pretending to be indifferent and said, "Then you can do it!" ”

Erya looked at this grandfather and felt funny, and wanted to show the prestige of his parents, but he couldn't put it up, so he probably felt aggrieved, right? !

Grandpa had nothing to say to Erya again, "Second granddaughter! Your home is empty, why don't you add furniture? ”

Erya replied to her grandfather's words with a smile: "After the house is built, it is already Layue, and there are too many things at home to be busy." Later, my uncle and uncle will build their house, and then we will fight together! That would save a lot of trouble. ”

"Yes! No hurry, no hurry! ”

Dad and Grandpa went out to walk around again, from the daughter of the family to marry here, they were relatives in the real sense of the word.

Seeing the grandfather of the Wang family basking in the sun at the door, he stayed there to chat, thanking him for taking care of Erya, etc., and the three generations of the family stayed until dinner before going back.

In the evening, Xiaolong went to their bed early.

Xiaohu was anxious, and shouted at Xiaolong: "Didn't you get a small bed?" You're so old and still sleeping with us, what are you like? ”

Xiaolong stood on the bed with his head bowed and did not speak.

Er Ya hurriedly hugged Xiaolong and helped take off his coat, while discussing with Xiaohu: "Or, wait a little longer!" He's still young! Anzi doesn't come to accompany him these days, he sleeps alone, and I'm not at ease. ”

Xiaohu glared at Xiaolong, who pretended not to see it, and stood there with his sister-in-law helping him undress.

After Erya helped him undress, he stuffed him into the quilt and explained to him: "Xiaolong, don't fall asleep!" There is water boiling in the pot, I will wash your hair and bathe you tonight, and tomorrow will be the New Year. Our little dragon is going to be white, handsome and good-looking! ”

The little dragon hiding in the quilt let out a muffled voice from inside: "Hmm! Little dragons don't sleep! ”

Xiaohu looked at the pile of arches out of the quilt and glared angrily.

Erya pulled him to the bathroom funny, and whispered to him: "He's still young!" Just let him rely on it for a few more days. Anyway, we are not in a hurry to have children now, and it doesn't matter if he sleeps with us. ”

Er Ya paused for a moment, and then said, "Have you noticed?" Since we came back from a trip for more than two months, Xiaolong hasn't talked much! Could it be that when we left, this kid was afraid that we didn't want him?!

I saw him several times, ran to my uncle's house, and secretly stopped outside the door to see if I was there!

I've seen it several times when I've been busy building houses with the masters here.

Maybe in Xiaolong's heart, the two of us are his real relatives.

If Xiaolong can't leave for a while, don't force him.

When he is a little older and sensible. Even if you don't ask him to divide the bed, he himself has to make trouble to sleep by himself! ”

Xiaohu listened to the sadness, yes! At the beginning, my father died suddenly, but fortunately, I still have my mother. Later, his mother died suddenly, and he was like losing his soul, fluttering, and he didn't know where he was every day and night! I still don't know how I survived at that time, and I can't even think about the days of that time.

When they all left, they left Xiaolong alone to follow the eldest aunt and second aunt, Xiaolong is so small, he has never left him, how scared he is!

When I think of this, I feel guilty.

Erya touched the water in the pot, it was just warm, a little hot, and it was just right to wash Xiaolong, so she went to the house and hugged Xiaolong out to wash her hair and take a bath.

Unexpectedly, Xiaolong hid in the cage and fell asleep for a while.

Erya didn't care if he fell asleep or not, so he gently hugged him and went to the bathroom.

"Little Tiger! Come, help take off Xiaolong's **, tell him not to sleep, he is still asleep. ”

Xiaohu responded while lightly undressing Xiaolong.

As soon as Erya put the bare-bottomed little dragon in the pot, the little dragon woke up and shouted, "Hot!" ”

The second girl is busy touching the water, it's not hot! Maybe the child has tender skin.

"Xiaohu, you come and remove the plug that is blocked and put some cold water in."

"Great!"

After washing Xiaolong's head and taking a bath, it should be two people washing their hair and taking a bath.

Erya first helped Xiaohu wash his hair, and then washed his hair herself. Then boiled water to take a bath, Xiaohu washed first, and washed himself later.

Tossing back and forth until the middle of the night, I washed up and went to bed!

The next day they got up early in the morning and went to the town to see the children and the women who had no home to return to.

Chicken, duck, pork, fish, mushrooms, fungus, garlic, bean sprouts, green vegetables, these dishes for the New Year, yesterday let Dahong and Xiangzi drive the carriage to send them.

But as the main family, I should go over to see everyone today, celebrate the New Year with everyone, and then send a red envelope to the children as New Year's money.

The two rode past as fast as they could, and when they got there, it was only dark.

However, the mothers-in-law and women were already busy in the kitchen. As soon as the two arrived at the gate of the compound, they smelled the fragrance of stewed meat wafting from the courtyard.

Xiaohu dismounted and pushed the door, only to find that the door was still tied inside. He shouted loudly: "Open the door!" ”

Immediately, a voice came from inside: "It's coming!" Here it comes! Who is it? ”

When he found out through the crack in the door that it was the owner, he hurriedly opened the door, and asked in surprise: "The owner!" Why are you still here in the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve? ”

Xiaohu was busy leashing the horse, and Erya replied with a smile: "We just don't worry about you, come and see if there is anything missing, and then have a meal with everyone, and go back!" ”

"Owner! You're so careful! We have everything, the door pairs have also been pasted up by the children, and the artillery battles have also been sent, chickens, ducks, fish, meat, vegetables, we have all been delivered, and we have nothing missing. ”

The woman, who was about forty years old, was talking while letting the second girl into the house.

"I went to the kitchen to see what was cooked, and then I didn't go into the hall." Erya said and turned into the kitchen.

The women who were busy in the kitchen, when they saw that it was the lady of the proprietor who had come, were ready to put down what they were doing and come forward to say hello.

Er Ya hurriedly raised her hand, "Don't! I'm just going to come over and have a meal with everyone, and I'll leave after eating, don't waste time for me. ”

And the women bowed, and went about their own work.

Chicken and pork are stewed in two large pots, one is in a large pot for somen noodles, and the other is in a large pot for next year's poop. It seems that they are preparing to eat noodle broth and boop broth in the morning.

The children also got up one after another, and the older children helped to dress the children and led them all to the yard, waiting for the adults to get hot water for them to wash.

Whether it is a big child or a small child, all of them are neatly dressed, and their hair is combed clearly, Er Ya asked in surprise: "These are all taken care of by themselves?" ”

The woman who opened the door for them laughed and said, "Yes! These children are fine, the older children know to help us take care of the children, and the younger children can listen to the older brothers and sisters. Much cleaner than when we took them. ”

Er Ya also laughed, this is really indescribable, the child with the child, no accommodation, no connivance, how can this child be better to bring?
