The second day is the third year of the new year.

Early in the morning, Zhou Ju took her three daughters-in-law and began to make dumplings.

Eating glutinous rice balls on the morning of the 31st represents the reunion of the whole family, which is a tradition in this area of Jianjian Village for thousands of years.

And now that the Tang family is living well, they no longer have to be like before. In order to save the filling, each person only eats one large rice ball with filling, and the rest is made into solid small rice balls.

This time, Zhou Ju is going to make all the stuffing.

And Zhou Ju also used all his energy to make many kinds of glutinous rice balls. For example, sesame brown sugar filling, peanut brown sugar, walnut brown sugar and so on. Let a few small gluttons stay in the kitchen.

Fortunately, the kitchen made by Ye Qiu is relatively large, and the stove is still pasted with a smooth and polished stone surface. Tang Chuanhe sighs every time he comes in and goes around, today's days are really good.

With so many fillings, children eat happily, adults also eat happily, and the whole Tang family is filled with strong happiness.

I don't know who rattled it, and the next moment I heard an exclamation.

"Ahhh I've got a copper coin. I've got a copper coin. Tang Guohua, the second eldest of Tang Weishi's family, shouted excitedly.

Copper coins are wrapped in glutinous rice balls, and they represent the rolling fortune of the coming year. Then one after another, some people ate copper coins, a total of four.

Ye Qiu didn't eat it, but Tang Weishan was lucky and ate a copper coin.

……

In the afternoon, it was a reunion dinner.

This meal was more hearty. After eating the glutinous rice balls, Ye Qiu, sister-in-law, and third sister-in-law helped Zhou Ju make it together, and it wasn't until one o'clock in the afternoon that the big bones and pig's trotters in the pot were stewed. And now that the policy is good, the reunion dinner of the Tang family no longer has to be eaten secretly. Now they have eaten openly, and their mouths are full of oil.

It's just that after seeing the visit from the same village, it is inevitable that I will not be a little envious. But the Tang family doesn't care about those, eat what should be eaten, and drink what should be drunk. After all, it wasn't stolen.

After eating the reunion dinner, everyone was able to rest.

The men got together to play with new gadgets, and Tang Weitian brought back a piece of mahjong. But there were only three people in the Tang family, so Ye Qiu went to call Tang Weiyong. By the way, let Wei Hongzhi also come to the house to sit.

The three men of the Tang family and Tang Weiyong, who came to play, got together, listened to Tang Weitian talk about the rules, and then fought.

Ye Qiu and Wei Hongzhi haven't seen each other for many years.

The year before last, Ye Qiu went home, and Wei Hongzhi went to the place of work in advance. And last year, Ye Qiu went to S City because of Tang Weishan's matter.

If you think about it, I haven't seen you for almost three years.

"The years are really urging people to get old, and before I know it, it's been three years, and the children are so old." Wei Hongzhi, Ye Qiu, and Xia Meihua sat on chairs in the yard, looking at a group of children playing. Wei Hongzhi couldn't help but sigh.

"yes, it's been three years in the blink of an eye."

Xia Meihua smiled, "When I don't have children, I think there is a lot of time." But with a child, it feels like time is short. In a blink of an eye, the child will be bigger, like grass growing in the wind, very fast. ”

Ye Qiu and Wei Hongzhi nodded, very agreeable.

While talking, sister-in-law Yao Xiaolan came out with a hot water kettle and a teacup and made tea for a few people.

"Sister-in-law is really born to eat this meal. Pick up the teacup and teapot, and the whole person becomes alive. Xia Meihua watched Yao Xiaolan make tea, and her movements were extremely elegant. It's very different from the usual feeling, and it feels very attractive.

Xia Meihua was shocked, and then looked at Ye Qiu and Wei Hongzhi beside her.

Ye Qiu was already beautiful, and because of the relationship between reading and painting, there was an indescribable smell of summer plum blossoms on his body. And Wei Hongzhi may be a teacher, and the whole person has a strong bookish atmosphere.

This kind of feeling, Xia Meihua also met in G City, is the old gentleman who taught Tang Weitian and his daughter Tang Guoyue.

Xia Meihua couldn't help but think of Tang Weitian's words about going to college. I can't help but wonder if I should read some books too? Even if you can't read anything, at least you have to read and read. Otherwise, in the future, wouldn't he be far from Yao Xiaolan Yeqiu?

Thinking like this, Xia Meihua also secretly made up her mind. When she went to G City after the New Year, she also went to school with Tang Weitian to try, if she could adapt, she should also learn something.

Wei Hongzhi took a sip of tea, and was shocked, "Sister-in-law, this black tea tastes thick and full, but it is not greasy or astringent, it is really good tea." When Wei Hongzhi was a child, her grandfather liked to drink tea very much, and she was also a little edified. Later, although I didn't drink tea, I still had the feeling of tasting tea.

"If you like it, I'll bring you some later." Yao Xiaolan said happily.

There is nothing happier about tea makers than that the tea leaves they make are sincerely liked. So although there are few tea leaves on this tea king tree, Yao Xiaolan is still willing to give one or two boxes.

Wei Hongzhi happily expressed her gratitude.

Ye Qiu knew that this tea was from the tea king tree, but the tea garden was the first-hand experience of her sister-in-law Yao Xiaolan, and Ye Qiu would not ask anything. Turning to look at Wei Hongzhi, he asked, "Sister Hongzhi, how are you doing in the field?" ”

"The place I went to was a county seat, and I taught high school. Life is also a passing one. ”

"Wei Yong is still a chef?"

"Yes. In the county People's Hotel. Wei Hongzhi said, "However, after the beginning of the year, I plan to use my savings in the past two years to let him open a restaurant, and it is better to do it myself than to go to work." ”

"It's time to do it yourself." Xia Meihua answered, "Today's business is easy to do, hurry up and do it first." In the future, when there are more people, it will be difficult. ”

Ye Qiu didn't expect Xia Meihua to have such foresight.

But what Xia Meihua said is also true. In the early 80s, no matter what business you did, as long as you worked steadfastly, you could make money.

is like Tang Weishan's second sister and second brother-in-law, Tang Guifang and Li Weiguo. After returning from City B before, I set up a shop in the town to sell braised meat. Now, for more than half a year, they have bought the shop. These two also tasted the sweetness of doing business, and heard that the two were going to open a chain store in the county after the year.

Wei Hongzhi and Tang Weiyong should have saved some money in the past few years, Ye Qiu said with a smile, "Sister Hongzhi, in the future, you will open all parts of the country in your restaurant, and then you will have food and accommodation every time you go to a place." ”

When Wei Hongzhi heard this, a smile filled her face, "Okay, I've taken your good words." ”

"Hey, there is tea, no wonder it's so fragrant." My sister Tang Guizhi is still in the early stages of pregnancy, and she is very sleepy. After eating, he went upstairs to rest. When I woke up, I heard a lot of noise downstairs, so I walked down.

In the living room, the brothers are playing mahjong. Tang Guizhi went out without much interest, and then saw several sisters-in-law drinking tea together. Smelling the fragrance, Tang Guizhi also wanted to drink it. So he walked over and said, and at the same time picked up a new teacup, ready to let his sister-in-law Yao Xiaolan pour tea.

Ye Qiu stood up and stopped, "Sister, you are not feeling well, you can't drink this." ”

Hearing that Tang Guizhi was not feeling well, several other people surrounded her and became concerned.

It wasn't until Ye Qiu made a nonsense that he didn't forget it. The name of unmarried pregnancy is still not good, and now in addition to Ye Qiu and Zhou Ju in the family, Tang Guizhi himself knows.

……

The time for chatting was also very fast, and in a blink of an eye, the canopy was drawn. Tang Guizhi and Tang Weiyong returned home with their son.

When Zhou Ju and his daughters-in-law were preparing dinner, there was a sudden buzz outside, with the sound of blowing grain and playing music.

Everyone was a little curious and went out to have a look.

On the road, there was a group of people dressed in strange costumes, and their clothes were all strangely shaped. At the front are lion dancers, then there are flower boats, masks and ghosts, and dances. It was followed by some strange-looking people.

These people were holding torches, flashlights, etc., illuminating a large area of the road in front of Ye Qiu's house.

And the lion dancers stood in front of Ye Qiu's house and danced the lion dance, dancing horse lanterns, singing flower boats, and at the same time there were suona drummers with soundtrack.

The person who sang the flower boat swayed the shape of the boat, one after the other, and sang at the same time, "The night of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the night of the reunion of the main family." The whole family is happy to celebrate the New Year, and the coming year will be prosperous and make a lot of money! Step by step, auspicious, the whole family is happy... Big... Year....... ”

A series of auspicious words came out of the man's mouth.

Tang Chuanhe was so excited that he hurriedly shouted, "The third, the fifth, hurry up and give Geely money." ”

Tang Weitian gave eight pieces of eight, and Tang Weishan was actually a little blindsided. However, when he heard Tang Chuanhe's words, he also saw Tang Weitian's movements, so he took out eight pieces of eight and gave them to the leader.

The people who sing auspicious words are even more energetic.

Their team began to perform on the night of the 30th night of the Chinese New Year's Eve and continued until the 15th. But also in the village. Then the village chief symbolically gave a little hardship fee. Generally, an auspicious number is given, with numbers of six and eight, but most of them are given a piece of eight.

I was going to Jianshe Village just now. But when I walked around the corner and looked at this magnificent and chic house, I remembered those rumors about the wealth of the Tang family, so I made people jump again. Unexpectedly, I received two cents of auspicious money today. It's still more, and the income of the first few villages is up.

So the man who received the money and played the gong and drum poured out all the auspicious words in his belly.

This movement naturally attracted many people from the village, who came out to watch.

The road is brightly lit, singing flower boats, dancing horse lanterns, teasing lions, and dancing...... It's not lively. This is a big surprise in today's rural areas where entertainment is poor. All of them watched intently.

After the performance, the group thanked the host. Then he got off the road and headed towards the center of the village. A group of people who followed behind also held torches and flashlights.

Ye Qiu looked at those people and couldn't help but shake his head. This star-chasing is really regardless of age and age. And the next words of Liuliu confirm this fact.

"Mom, I want to see the lions, I want to see the horses and the boats." Liuliu grabbed Ye Qiu's hand and wanted to follow.

As soon as 66 opened his mouth, several other children of the Tang family were eager to try.

"The third, the fifth, you take the children to see." Tang Chuanhe was in a good mood, waved his big hand, and hurriedly said.
