Chapter 140
When the crackling firecrackers next door were completely extinguished, Wen Run returned to the house with a thin layer of snowflakes. At that time, Su Nianzhen was already comfortable and drowsy in the warm quilt, and vaguely felt that he was coming back, squinting his eyes and saying a few vague words in his sleep, and then completely fell asleep.
Wen Run was afraid that the cold brought from outside would freeze her, so she had already entered the space to take a combat bath outside, and even her hair was dried before she came out, and she specially wore the home clothes she had just bought for him not long ago. Seeing that she didn't open her eyes, she just fell asleep in an alien language that no one could understand, so she could only smile helplessly, followed into the warm quilt next to her, and said "good night" softly, and then closed her eyes as well.
Even if she officially goes to work again, Su Nianzhen's biological clock is very regular, and if there is no accident, she usually goes to bed before eleven o'clock. After staying up until the early hours of the morning yesterday, on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, I really overslept "living up to expectations".
However, she and Wen Run, who also overslept, have no kinship with the people in the village, so they don't have to go out early in the morning to pay New Year's greetings. And the objects they wanted to pay New Year's greetings -- the old couple of the Jiang family and Lao Bai -- didn't care about these customary rites whether they were late or not, so they didn't call them, and even the firecrackers that were to be set off early in the morning waited for them to wake up before they sounded in the courtyard.
Different from the two who are free, Ding He is a native of the country, even if he has not returned to his hometown for nearly ten years to pay New Year's greetings, now that he has returned, and he has the heart to bring the people in the village to get rich, he naturally can't be the same as before. So he got up at dawn. It's a pity that the snow is too heavy at night, and the road is covered with snow. He rode a bicycle before he could walk fast, so he simply trotted to Xiaoding Village as if he had practiced exercises in the morning when he was in the army, and did not return until almost ten o'clock.
Everyone stayed up too late last night, and even the two energetic little fat men woke up in a daze at almost ten o'clock, missing several groups of children who came home to pay New Year's greetings.
As soon as everyone arrived, the dumplings and noodles, which symbolized the reunion for a long time, were immediately put into the pot.
Although Mr. Jiang is a foreigner in the village, his mother is a real member of the Kong clan, and she is considered to be a relatively senior in the village, plus because of the straw products business. The Jiang family is not as withdrawn as it used to be. I have more contacts with the people in the village, and the first day of the new year will naturally not be as cold as in previous years.
This is not? When the family had a late breakfast, they came several times to pay New Year's greetings. There was a group of people who walked together, and there were three or two of them. There was also a man who came alone. Celebrate the New Year. The young people who had been working outside the home have returned. There are also many children who look at the birth of their eyes, but it is lively.
There was a lot of noise at home, and the two elders were not annoyed at all. On the contrary, he was happy, enthusiastically holding peanuts, melon seeds and candies, and stuffing them into the pockets of the juniors one by one.
Where has An Anle ever seen this meeting? Especially after seeing children about the same size as them, they didn't even want to eat fragrant dumplings, humming and chirping and stretching out their arms and kicking their legs, and they wanted to go out with their little brothers and sisters to pay New Year's greetings.
It's snowing so hard outside, the road is not easy to walk, and the grandparents have to stay at home to entertain people who come to pay New Year's greetings, so they definitely can't go out with them. It's just that the two little guys are rarely willful, and they look strange and pitiful, Wen Run, who didn't plan to go out, had to carry Ding He on his shoulders one by one, and followed a few familiar villagers to go door-to-door to pay New Year's greetings.
Su Nianzhen escaped the catastrophe and hurried back to the house after eating. There is no way, the country is easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change, even if she partners with friends to open a company, she still doesn't like this kind of meaningless communication. Greeting people she doesn't know well or something, she would rather nest in the house and put on a net or lie down for a while.
Probably a little tired some time ago, Su Nianzhen originally just wanted to lie down for a while, but she didn't expect to fall asleep unconsciously. It wasn't until Wen Run, who returned from running for most of the village with Lele to pay New Year's greetings, that she returned to the house, and saw that she was lying on the sofa and sleeping soundly, without even covering a blanket, and accidentally woke her up when she cautiously wanted to carry her to the kang.
"You're back?" Unwary of the overly familiar atmosphere, Su Nianzhen asked in a daze, and was about to turn over and continue to sleep, but she didn't expect it to move!
"Don't move, go and sleep on the kang." Wen Run took a few quick steps and put someone who was moving on the kang that had not yet faded from the residual warmth.
Mu Du was taken off his coat and pants and stuffed into the quilt, and Su Nianzhen's sleepy head was a little dazed before it returned to normal operation after a while. Realizing what had just happened, Su Nianzhen couldn't help but blush, and buried her head in the pillow with some embarrassment. She couldn't tell whether the strong emotions that suddenly appeared in her heart were shame, embarrassment or excitement, she only felt like a steamed shrimp, hot all over, and in winter, she felt too hot in the bed, and people couldn't help but want to fan the wind to cool down.
When the deliberately light footsteps gradually disappeared, Su Nianzhen pulled out her flushed face from the pillow. Holding his hands and smirking for a while, he thought to himself, it seems that after the age of ten, no one has ever hugged himself like this!
Different from the soft and fragrant embrace of his mother in his memory, his arms are strong, his chest is solid, and there is no refreshing fragrance on his body, but the unique breath makes people extremely reassuring, as if no matter what happens, there is no need to worry, with him, everything is fine. It's nice to have such a loved one who she can trust with all her heart!
Su Nianzhen thought about it ramblingly, rubbed the very tactile futon, yawned silently, and fell asleep again after a while.
The snow that began to fall on Chinese New Year's Eve did not stop until the end of Su Nianzhen's holiday. Thanks to the blessing of this heavy snowfall, the three girls of the Jiang family all used the bad weather to travel inconveniently, and the girls who married out in the third year of junior high school did not come when they should go to their parents' house, but there was a lot less trouble.
This holiday, Su Nianzhen, who has really worked hard for a long time, finally experienced the essence of leisure. Sure enough, there is a busy comparison to better understand the preciousness of the holiday.
“…… Now the shops on the street may not be open, and I will wrap you with a drawer of steamed buns, which is enough for you to last a few days, but don't skip breakfast in order to save trouble, practice yourself at a young age, and you will know that it is powerful when you are old......"
Before leaving, the old lady stuffed food into the trunk as usual, as if they would starve to death when they arrived in the city. But this is the old man's heart, and they do like the food that their grandmother cooks, so she stuffs it until the whole trunk is filled.
Knowing that they would meet again in a few days, the two little ones were still a little reluctant, but they didn't cry like before and didn't let them go. (To be continued......)
