Chapter 67: The Seventh Month
In a flash, it was the seventh day of the first month, that is, the day when Miao Qing invited Zhang Tian's family to be guests at home. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
This custom has always been practiced in the village, and before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, each family will set a day to invite relatives and friends to their homes, which is called "New Year's Day".
Later, because of the famine year, coupled with the burden of annual task food, every family wore a belt even during the New Year, and this custom was also shelved.
This year's harvest is good, and in addition to the grain to be handed over, the brigade finally has some cash in hand before the Chinese New Year, and every household has at least living money in their hands.
In the hearts of rural people, the Chinese New Year is the most important day of the year, so the hands are looser, and this custom has been picked up again.
I don't care about the quality of food, relatives and friends have a lively time together, which is also to add joy to the family, so that the next year's animal husbandry will be prosperous and the family will be healthy!
Tian Cheng and his parents went back after the fifth day of the new year, although they didn't know how long it would take for their families to reunite, but one day over there, they had to maintain a good relationship with the surrounding villagers so as not to be embarrassed.
When I came, I had a big bag, and when I left, it was still a big bag.
It's just replaced with bacon, small fish and shrimp, as well as tofu and vegetables and other daily necessities.
Although Li Ying shirked in every possible way, when Xi'er pointed to her house full of things, she said that it was all earned by her daughter selling fish and shrimp, and it was originally a gift for her parents and brother.
Li Ying hugged her eight-year-old daughter and cried silently, her daughter's sensibility and precociousness made the parents feel heartbroken.
Before coming here, the baby daughter was still an ignorant and innocent little girl, and every day she just had to be coquettish around her parents and grandfather, play tricks, and be the family's pistachios.
It's only been less than a year, and she's grown up like a little adult.
needs to manage the livelihood of grandparents and grandchildren, and even know how to make money to honor their parents.
Looking back at his own leather boy, he suddenly became angry.
Tian Cheng didn't understand whether he understood the murderous aura in his mother's eyes, or was stimulated by his sister's sensibility, so he hurriedly ran to his mother to express his determination.
"Mom, I won't be naughty in the future, I also have to learn laundry and cooking, and you won't have to work so hard when you go home in the future." After saying this, Li Ying's bulging bubbles were punctured all of a sudden, and then they were soaked in sour vinegar, and her nose and eyes were sour.
"Okay, it's all Mommy's good baby."
"That's what I said, look at Zhang Yi, not only help his father every day, but also don't forget to study every day, and then look at yourself." Tian Yuliang took the opportunity to quickly beat his son, for fear that he would play wild in the countryside and would not want to study.
Tian Cheng lowered his head and kicked his right foot around unconsciously on the ground.
"He's certainly not as smart as my brother, is he? Let's compete. Xi'er also hopes that her brother can pick up the knowledge, go to school smoothly, be admitted to junior high school and high school, and wait for the resumption of the college entrance examination The family can leave here.
"My sister thinks I'm smarter than Zhang Yi?" There were two small suns burning in Tian Cheng's eyes, and he almost melted Xi'er's serious expression.
"Of course!" With the arrogant expression, he quickly put his eyes away.
Tian Yuliang and Li Ying pursed their lips and snickered, watching their son fall into the pit dug by his daughter again.
"Hmph~~ Isn't it just learning? I can do it too! ”
"yes, isn't it just learning? Wait for the next time you come to ask grandpa to produce the test papers, and see which of you two is great? Come on, brother! "Xi'er dug the pit, but it was not deep enough, so hurry up and dig the pit bigger.
"Yes, my brother will definitely take the first place! Yes? Do you still have exams? When Tian Cheng reacted, the pit had already been buried.
"Isn't it just an exam? For my brother, it was a piece of cake! "After burying the pit, hurry up and step on two more feet, and step on it!
"Son, you have to come on! If he is compared to Zhang Yi, he will no longer be the most powerful brother in his sister's mind. Tian Yuliang held back a smile and added another fire.
Tian Cheng, who was holding his neck and wanted to fight for himself, was completely burned by his father's fire.
Then he raised his head and clenched his fists and swore again: "I must be the most powerful brother in my sister's heart!" Dad, it's all your fault, why don't you bring my textbooks? ”
Li Ying hurriedly promised to help him borrow the book when he went back.
The family cherishes the atmosphere of farewell, because Tian Cheng's high fighting spirit is no longer so sentimental.
Two days after her parents left, Xi'er finally got used to the desertion at home, and when Gu Liya came, the house immediately became lively again.
"Hurry up, it's very lively over there, why don't I see your people?"
"Wait, I'll get the stinky tofu and go over, otherwise the taste will be affected." Xi'er ignored her, and her little hands were still busy.
"I said little housekeeper, you can't compare to ordinary people this day!" Squatting there, looking at the originally fluffy piece of tofu in her white and tender little hand, it was taken care of in three or two clicks, square and square, as neat as if it had just been cut.
"Go, help me bring that big jar on the table." Xi'er doesn't raise her head, so that she evokes people but is very neat.
Gu Liya had the consciousness to be called at all, and she went to the hall to hug the heavy and big crockpot.
"How much are you going to make such a big jar?" Gu Liya felt hard to hug it.
"When you eat, you'll know whether it's more or less."
"Hehe, I'll help you, let's hurry up, didn't you say you wanted to see Gao Xian'er's study?"
"Don't bother me, make sure it's half as fast." Xi'er got up and went to the kitchen to bring out the dustpan, which was a mixture of chili powder and peppercorn powder prepared in advance.
Wrap the washed tofu cubes in peppercorn noodles, put them in the jar, and you can eat them in a few days.
When Xi'er finishes it, the winter sunflower also comes out, today is a good day!
After changing his clothes, he called Zhang Yi and walked towards the village amid Gu Liya's noise.
Zhang Qing and Old Man Tian were invited over early in the morning, one to help, and the other to accompany Old Man Gao to play chess.
There must be a lot of guests in Accountant Gao's house today, and he thought that the old man was a quiet person, and he would definitely not be able to read books in this case, so it would be better to find someone to play chess with him.
Gao Xiang had heard Miao Qing talk about the old man Tian a long time ago, so he didn't have to worry about his father's depression in the future.
"Are you sure we can go to their study?" Xi'er was a little skeptical, with so many people today, books are such a valuable thing, can people enter them casually?
"Do you think that the people here are just like us, treating books as treasures? They don't know a single word, what are they going to do? Gu Liya didn't have a good air.
Also, only people who love books will think that it is precious, and in the eyes of others, it is not too gray to use it to start a fire!
Xi'er thought that she would see these precious books later, and her mood immediately shone like the winter sun.
But there will always be one or two uninteresting people in life, like annoying flies, who drive away and fly back, over and over again.
Zhang Yi still kept his silence, but when he saw the corners of Xi'er's flying mouth, his eyes would quietly narrow, and if he didn't look carefully, he might not be able to find it.
