The next day, when the sky was bright and the roosters were crowing outside, Tong Xue got up, and as soon as she got up, she put the copper plate prepared in the morning into the red envelope, planning to give a few children as New Year's money.

This copper plate was specially asked by Tong Xue to change Xu Wenyuan, it looks relatively new, and it is suitable for New Year's money.

On the morning of the first day of the first lunar month, someone set off firecrackers, even people who sleep very well generally can't sleep lazy, they will be woken up.

Tong Xue had already ripped up the fabric for making clothes before the New Year, and asked Xu Wan to drive out the whole family's New Year's clothes.

Especially the two small ones, Tong Xue helped them buy red materials, and when they wore them, they were like children who came out of the year, looking festive, and the atmosphere of the festival was coming.

After everyone woke up, they came to Tong Xue's room to greet Tong Xue, "Sister-in-law, Happy New Year!" ”

Tong Xue also happily stuffed the red envelope to everyone, and the red envelopes of the four people were each wrapped with 20 yuan, "Happy New Year, this is the New Year's money for you, I hope you can study hard and make money well in the coming year, why don't you get better next year." ”

Wearing new clothes and taking New Year's money is probably the strongest expectation of children for the New Year, which is the only time a year for many people to get pocket money and new clothes.

The children of the Xu family are the same, they took the red envelope with a smile, and said sweetly thank you sister-in-law.

After breakfast in the morning, Tong Xue took her younger brothers and sisters to kowtow in front of the ranking, and when they had eaten, the sky was completely bright, and the whole family was ready to go. Walk towards the ancestral hall.

Compared with the last time the ancestral hall was opened, the Xu family stood close to the entrance of the ancestral hall, and the treatment this time was obviously much better, Xu Wenyuan was even taken to the second row, and the eyes of the people in the village looking at the Xu family became completely different.

The process of worshipping the ancestors of the people in the village is lengthy, and Li is about to say the main events of the past year in front of the ancestral shrine. Then pray for the blessing of the ancestors. Let the next year be smooth, and one qiē will become better.

Li Zheng's words focused on Xu Wenda's middle lift, as if the person who won the lift was his son. Perfect for what it is.

After coming out of the ancestral hall, Tong Xue felt that everyone's eyes had changed when they looked at her. Half a year ago, people in the village still said that she was a miserable person and married a short-lived ghost. is destined to be widowed, in just half a year. She became the lucky one in the mouths of these people, from a blunt village woman to a lady in one fell swoop.

No one disliked Xu Wan for not having her mother to teach, and someone was pulling Tong Xue openly and secretly. Tried to inquire about Xu Wan's marriage.

Tong Xue smiled and declined, "Wan'er is still too young, and his eldest brother and I don't feel comfortable handing her over to anyone." I still want to stay for two more years, when I can run the family. Remarry. ”

Tong Xue smiled at everyone, and when she got home, her whole face became sour, she hadn't maintained a smiling expression for so long since she was a child.

Compared with Tong Xue, Xu Wenzhao and Xu Jing's love appeared on their faces, how ugly the words these people once said, they can remember it, although children are forgetful, but they still remember the grudge very clearly.

By the time they got home, the family was exhausted and paralyzed. If Tong Xue hadn't closed the door very wittily, it is estimated that there would still be people who wanted to follow in.

The New Year is indeed a troublesome thing for the big family, after all, the New Year is the time to go to relatives, and which relatives to run every day are set, but for the Xu family, the New Year is idle, and it is basically fine.

After all, the situation of the Xu family is also special, Tong Xue and Xu Wenda both have their parents dead, and the closest people are gone, and the remaining relatives are basically disconnected, and there is no need to communicate, so naturally this year is extraordinarily leisurely.

After sitting at home for a few days, Tong Xue couldn't sit still, called Xu Wenyuan over and asked, "Is there a lantern festival in the town?" ”

Xu Wenyuan replied honestly, "No, there are ones in the county, but after watching the lanterns, we can't come back." It's still quite dangerous to travel overnight. ”

Tong Xue tilted her head and thought in her heart, "Why don't we go to the county seat for one night?" ”

When Xu Wan heard this, she refused in her heart, and said with great hesitation, "Is this good?" ”

As a married woman, it is naturally not good to stay overnight, but with the male of the family following, it should be fine, "It should be fine, isn't there Wenyuan with you?" ”

Xu Wan continued, "But there must be a lot of people at the Lantern Festival, I heard that there are many people who just look at this day and catch children on the street and sell them, and many people's children are just lost, only the second brother follows, can it be done?" ”

Thinking that there were still two children at home, I immediately laughed at that thought, but I was still a little unwilling in my heart, "Then we have spent this year at home?" ”

Seeing that the whole family was silent for a moment, Tong Xue could only amuse herself and said, "Otherwise, how about we make a lantern ourselves?" ”

Xu Wan asked in shock, "Do it yourself?" ”

Tong Xue nodded as a matter of course, since she can't go out to have fun, at home, it's okay, "That's right, isn't Wenyuan able to write and draw, let's make a frame and paste the painting." ”

Xu Wan looked at Tong Xue suspiciously, according to her observation for so long, her sister-in-law, in addition to being more special in ideas, always getting along with strange ideas, and being exceptionally talented in eating, is really not flattering in other aspects, "But, sister-in-law, will you?" ”

Tong Xue hesitated, this lantern, she really hasn't been confused, she used to hang the lantern to go to the supermarket to buy it, who would have thought to do it herself, but I haven't eaten pork, I haven't talked about pig running, I've seen the frame, can't I copy it, "It's not that difficult." ”

After finishing speaking, seeing the eyes of the whole family sweeping over, he was inexplicably a little weak-hearted, and then said, "Try it and know?" ”

"Sister-in-law."

Xu Wenyuan replied helplessly, "Okay." ”

The lantern is easy to do, as long as the skeleton is made, it is still easy to make. But it's hard to say, and it's not that easy.

After all, it is also a technical job to consider whether the lantern is round when it is propped up, and whether the candle in the middle will burn to the stand next to it.

The Xu family is in full swing at home making lanterns, and Xu Wenda and Su Heng are also struggling whether to go to the lantern festival on the fifteenth.

Su Heng left the rented hut early in the morning and went to the street alone. I have to say. This capital is the capital, and when they came last year, it was close to the end of the year. In some places, the shops have been closed.

But now, all the shops are open, and there are two red lanterns hanging at the door. There is a street planned by the government, and the lantern festival is held there.

For today is fifteen. Although it is not yet night, not all the lanterns are hung out, and they look as beautiful during the day as they are lit at night, but there are still many vendors who hang out some rare lanterns......

Not only are there all kinds of lanterns along the street, but people are dazzled by the sight, and at the end of the street is wide. A high platform was also built, and it looked like he was going to invite a troupe to perform a show.

Just look at the posture during the day. I knew that tonight would definitely be a grand event, so Su Heng's heart began to move, "Today's Lantern Festival, there is a lantern festival in the capital, I heard that it is very lively, I went to take a walk, it is already crowded outside, and there must be more people at night." ”

Xu Wenda was holding a book in his hand, calm and relaxed, Su Heng felt that he could probably understand why Xu Wenda had kept two great filial pieties at home in a row, one for six years, but he could still get such a good score.

This person basically doesn't leave the book in his hand, because he didn't participate in the Luming Banquet in Qingyang Mansion, and the lifters in the same period didn't know Xu Wenda, so naturally they didn't invite him to travel with him, except for two parties, Xu Wenda followed Su Heng, and spent his time in the room on weekdays.

Su Heng said in his heart, he really suffered hardship, Fang is a master, in this prosperous Kyoto, outside the world of flowers, Xu Wenda can always be like water, just this point, he Su Heng is not comparable.

Su Heng told Xu Wenda about the situation outside, "This year is the year of the big exam, and young talents from all over the country have come to the capital, waiting for the next exam, so many girls will come to the lantern festival. ”

After Xu Wenda heard this, he glanced at Su Heng in surprise, "I have already married a wife." ”

Su Heng raised his forehead, he said this, just to highlight that this year's lantern festival is different from the previous two years, and it is more lively, "It's just for you to go and see the excitement, and it's not for you to marry other girls." We've never been to this capital, so you're not curious. ”

Su Heng continued to babble for a long time, but Xu Wenda didn't listen to it much, only the last sentence was heard, "I heard that many stalls that guess lantern riddles today have very rich lottery heads." ”

Jackpots? Xu Wenda thought about it, and his wife at home seemed to be about to die. Although he is in the capital, as a minister, he still has to approve a gift.

Su Heng said that his mouth was dry, and in the end, he didn't see the excitement from Xu Wenda, and finally tried to say, "Brother Xu, you can go with me." ”

"Okay."

"Brother Xu, did you agree?" Su Heng was so happy that he was about to go outside with Xu Wenda, but as soon as he went out, he ran into someone who came to deliver the letter.

Su Heng didn't expect that the letter he sent back would receive a reply so quickly, he could only say that Su Heng gave the silver too happily when he sent the letter, and money can make the ghost grind, not to mention that the road is faster?

There are two letters in total, Su Heng's one is as thin as a cicada's wings, and when you touch it, you know that there are no more than two pieces of paper in it, and Su Heng originally thought it was okay.

But looking at Xu Wenda's envelope again, I really want to drop the cup, can this still be called a letter? This thickness is enough to be worth a book, and I don't know what the Xu family has written, which is so thick.

Xu Wenda was also surprised when he saw it, his home writing was thick, just because he recorded the scenery and stories along the way, it was one thing to tell his family that he was okay all the way, and he also wrote some interesting articles for his younger brothers and sisters to see.

In fact, if he wanted to tell his younger brothers and sisters, he wrote a page, he is not a person who likes to vent his emotions, but he didn't expect that the reply he received was twice as thick as his?

After Xu Wenda opened it, he knew what was going on with such a thick body, each of his younger brothers and sisters wrote a letter to him, Xu Wan and Xu Wenyuan were older after all, and they had studied longer, and they could express their meaning clearly.

Xu Wenzhao and Xu Jing couldn't write, so they drew circles directly, and Xu Wenda couldn't help but laugh when he saw it, and the smile on his face couldn't stop at all.

Especially the letter written by Xu Wenzhao to him, it was written at the beginning that the eldest brother went far away, and the second brother said that he went to the scientific examination and would not come back for the New Year, I was a little angry, how could the eldest brother not come back for the New Year? My sister-in-law came up with an idea, saying that we should make a lot of delicious things, and then sued him, so that he wanted to eat but couldn't eat it, and starved him to death, I thought it was great, and decided to write down all the delicious things that my sister-in-law made every day to show my eldest brother.

Xu Wenda couldn't laugh or cry when he saw it, and he dared to love Wen Zhao's eyes, he was a foodie.

Xu Wenzhao had racked his brains to try his best to use all the beautiful words he had learned to describe the food made by Tong Xue, but in Xu Wenda's eyes, every few words, a circle appeared, and he didn't want to eat, and he laughed because of this.

The content of the letters from the other younger siblings was relatively normal, mainly saying what he had done, hoping that he would be able to take the exam in the capital with peace of mind and not worry about them.

At the end, I found that inside the large envelope, there was a thin envelope, the envelope was sealed, but there was no word on it.

Tong Xue's words, Xu Wenda's impression is still very deep, for Xu Wenda, it can only be described in four words, that is, it is unsightly. It was because he was so impressed, so he knew that Tong Xue did not write a word of him in these letters just now.

Xu Wendama held the unwritten envelope, thinking to himself, this should be written by Tong Xue to him.

Gently tore open the envelope, only a piece of paper fell out of it, and the words on it were really as ugly as he remembered, and after looking at it twice, he recognized what Tong Xue was, and he had read it, and his home was fine.

Xu Wenda couldn't help but laugh when he saw Tong Xue's words. He thought it was to write Tong Xue's eight words, but he hesitated for a long time before writing it before the table, but he didn't know how long it took Tong Xue to?

Or is it because you feel that you are writing too short, so you are so concise in reply? (To be continued.) )

ps: I feel that the power of the desolation in my body has been unable to control my nose and tears, and the cold is too strict!! /(tot)/~~>
