When the lunch was about to be ready, Qi Shan actually drove over, carrying two roast ducks, standing in the yard and sniffing vigorously, and said excitedly: "Haha! I can smell it, it's the smell of hot fat sausages! He sniffed hard again, "And fried kidney flowers!" ”

Lu Zhong said with a smile: "It coincides with the slaughter of pigs, and the water vegetables are being renovated in the stove room. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Qi Shan became more and more excited, "Water vegetables? Good! Good! I couldn't have come just in time! ”

Qi Feng really couldn't stand it, and pouted: "You obviously came here with a meal." ”

Qi Shan laughed, "It's still my son who understands me." ”

Qi Feng remembered that Yu Liang said that Qi Shan did not continue the string, and muttered, "I don't understand you." ”

Qi Shan looked at his son with a strange expression, "What's wrong?" Ran to stay at home for a few days, and changed sex? ”

Qi Feng felt ashamed and didn't mention this topic, "Dad, what are you doing here?" ”

"Take you back! By the way, I said goodbye to the Lu family. ”

"Resignation? Where to go? Qi Feng was puzzled.

Qi Shan glared at him and reprimanded him: "Your grandmother's sixtieth birthday, have you forgotten?" ”

Qi Feng was embarrassed, he really forgot.

Qi Shan was heartbroken: "Look, my unfilial son gave birth to you, an unfilial son, if it wasn't for your uncle who brought a letter, I would have forgotten about it." ”

"Go back to Jun'an's hometown?" Qi Feng screamed bitterly, to be honest, he really didn't want to go back, the seven aunts and eight aunts were annoying enough, and the grandmother who loved him very much was nagging around him all day long.

Qi Shan patted him on the back of the head, "What's wrong?" Can't go back? ”

Qi Feng nodded with a bitter face, "Go back, you can go back." ”

Qi Shan threw the two roast ducks in his hand to Qi Feng, "Go, take it to the stove room." ”

Lu Xiaoyi learned that Qi Feng was going back to his hometown. I was very happy in my heart, and finally sent the big bulb away, and she and the rest of the grain could live a crooked life again.

So, Xiao Yi was unprecedentedly excited, urging Yu Liang to go home and take the New Year's gift to Qi Shan and let him take it with him.

At first glance, Qishan is air-dried game and pickled dried fish, as well as some dried pine mushrooms and fungus. Rejoicing. not only praised the little couple for their life, but also compared the little couple and derogated Qi Feng as worthless.

Then it was about Qi Feng's family affairs. Qi Shan became more and more heartbroken, not only reprimanding Qi Feng for not being in tune, but also repeatedly emphasizing that unfilial piety is the greatest, and the scolded Qi Feng shrank his head and shrunk his feet to make a quail shape.

At last. Qi Shan made a predictive speech, so that Qi Feng was ready to go back to Jun'an's hometown for a blind date. At that time, his grandmother will be in charge, and his three aunts and six mothers-in-law will be assistants, and he will definitely set a good family for him.

Qi Feng's eyebrows were already wrinkled, and he looked at Yu Liang and Lu Xiaoyi with a bitter face.

Yu Liang comforted: "I wish you to marry a capable daughter-in-law." ”

Lu Xiaoyi also comforted him. "You can't put it off any longer, find someone to make do with, don't pick an older bachelor like you."

Qi Feng was furious. Pointing at her and the two disappointed, he said, "You two are really my good brothers!" ”

Lu Xiaoyi pursed his lips and smiled proudly, leaned over and whispered, "Yes." Good brothers have made a good couple, do you envy them? ”

Qi Feng was so angry that he took a few steps back, and gritted his teeth at Lu Xiaoyi: "I am very envious!" ”

Qi Shan laughed and said to Qi Feng: "Envy is useful, it is the right thing to start a family and give birth to a son early, this time I will go back to my hometown and bring more silver, if there is a suitable one, I will quickly marry you into the door, and bring a shop to cook for us." ”

Qi Feng was unhappy, "Dad, I married a daughter-in-law, not a cook!" ”

Qi Shan scratched his head, "Okay, if I'm wrong, let her take care of the housekeeper!" ”

Qi Feng was silent. In the past few days in the Yu family, he has also thought a lot, firstly, he is indeed not young, and he doesn't want his father to bother about him anymore, and secondly, when he sees Yu Liang and Xiaoyi's close relationship, he is also envious, and thinks that marrying a daughter-in-law is not bad.

When Qi Shan saw his son agree, his heart blossomed, and he said excitedly: "Hurry up and set up the tables and chairs, let's rush back to the city after eating, pack up and leave early." ”

Qi Feng nodded.

Lu Zhong invited everyone from the West Courtyard, plus Qi Shan's father and son, and sat at two more tables.

Although it is Mrs. Lu's filial piety, the peasant family is not strict in terms of meat food, and meat food is only taboo in Qiqi, and it is not taboo after Qiqi, and the peasant family has to work in the field, and it is not good to eat vegetarian for a long time.

Qi Shan hadn't eaten such a sumptuous and delicious meal for a long time, especially after Chef Su Qing's sister-in-law, his stomach was even more tempered than ever, and now facing a table of home-cooked vegetables with an attractive aroma, he opened his belly to eat.

The Lu family was all polite, and after eating a meal, half of them went into Qishan's internal organs.

After the meal, Qi Shan touched his swollen stomach and said with satisfaction: "I'm full, I've drunk enough, and I'm ready to go on the road." ”

Mrs. Lu scolded him: "Can you speak?" Sounds so awkward! ”

Qi Shan laughed: "Aunt Lu taught me a lesson." ”

Mrs. Lu glanced at him, "It's rare to go back and honor your mother." ”

Qi Shan thanked Mrs. Lu for her teachings.

Mrs. Lu said again: "If I want to have an unfilial son like you who has been running away for a long time, I would have been driven out of the house long ago!" ”

Qi Shan smiled bitterly, "Don't hide it, I was disobedient when I was young, and my mother did have the intention to drive me out of the house." ”

In fact, when he was young, he ran around with a kung fu master who knew how to punch and kick kung fu, and his mother was worried about him, and did say that she would kick him out. At that time, his family was poor, he could fend for himself, his mother could only let him go, and later the dart earned some silver, he went home to marry a wife and have children to continue to run darts, his mother has never been less concerned about him.

Mrs. Lu looked him up and down, "As long as you go back, nothing will happen." ”

"Thank you Aunt Lu for your advice." Qi Shan bowed to Mrs. Lu seriously.

Mrs. Lu had never been treated so seriously and politely by anyone, and she obviously felt uncomfortable, so she waved her hand and urged: "Let's go, let's go." ”

Lu Shouzeng also smiled and said a few words, completely treating Qishan as his own family.

Lu Zhong said: "Jun'an County is quite far away from us, and the road is not very smooth at the end of the year, Brother Qi should be more careful along the way!" ”

"It's okay, I'm familiar with the way home!"

"Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, Brother Qi should not be careless."

Qi Shan nodded, "Don't worry, I'm a dart master!" ”

Lu Zhong knew that Qishan was thick on the outside and thin on the inside, and his experience in traveling was far richer than his own, so he didn't say much and sent him out.

Qi Feng drove the carriage over, before leaving. said to Yu Liang and Xiao Yi: "When I come back from my hometown, I will come to live at your house for a while!" After speaking, he winked at Xiao Yi, "Don't finish eating!" ”

Lu Xiaoyi immediately thought of the meat in the storage room, and gritted his teeth angrily.

Qi Feng laughed, threw the whip, and drove Qi Shan back to the city, the next day after returning to the city. Qi Shan asked Xu Wu to give Xiao Yi a pig's hind leg as a return gift.

The days that followed. Lu Xiaoyi successively sent his pickled mountain goods to his relatives, and the relatives also gave a lot of gifts in return, which was equivalent to a bartering process. The storeroom, which used to be a single mountain item, is now diverse.

The half of the pork belly that her mother's family gave her, she made it into cured meat; The hind leg of the pig that Qi Shan gave her, she chopped the lean meat and added seasonings to make a sausage; Cousin Chunyun gave her pig ears and pig tail. She also made cured meats; Wang Dongmei caught two big roosters for her, which she kept temporarily; There are also eggs sent back by Xiao Bing's daughter-in-law.

Lu Xiaoyi said to Yu Liang proudly: "I want to be a man in my next life." I must marry a capable daughter-in-law like me! ”

Yu Liang glanced at her with a smile, "You will still be a woman in your next life!" ”

"Why?"

"I'll marry you in the next life." Yu Liang said seriously.

Lu Xiaoyi smiled so much that he couldn't see his teeth, and said solemnly!

Soon it was Chinese New Year's Eve, and the Lu family did not post couplets because of filial piety. I didn't buy firecrackers, Xiao Yi and Yu Liang spent Chinese New Year's Eve together for the first time, and the feeling was very warm and sour. Damn custom, why don't you allow married daughters to go home to spend Chinese New Year's Eve and the first day of the new year together.

Yu Liang explained to her with a smile: "Because the deceased ancestors at home have come back to enjoy the offerings in the past two days." A married girl like you is already an outsider, and the ancestor is small-minded, and he will be unhappy when he sees an outsider at home, so a married girl like you can only return to the door when the second ancestor is gone. ”

Lu Xiaoyi pursed his mouth and did not make a comment on such ancient folk customs.

Yu Liang saw her look of disdain, and knew that she was unhappy, and said with a smile: "Don't think about it, I'll help you chop the dumpling filling!" ”

"Well, you chop it first, I'll go to the vegetable cellar to get two Chinese cabbage, and let's make cabbage-stuffed dumplings at night."

Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, not only dumplings, but also have to add a few dishes, Lu Xiaoyi took a kitchen knife to the storage room for a walk, returned to the stove room to cook and cook and steam, when served, there were sliced pig ears, sliced sausages, braised dried fish, fried crispy meat and meatball soup.

Lu Xiaoyi rubbed his hands and smiled: "What, for the New Year, let's not be a vegetarian." ”

In fact, the vegetable cellar was only in the experimental stage, and it was improvisable at first, but then it didn't work, and the cabbage and radish were rotten a lot, and she picked and chose to find two decent cabbages to make dumpling filling, and the other vegetables were all wiped out.

Yu Liang smiled and said he didn't mind.

Lu Xiaoyi poured a pot of wine, "Good food with good wine, Brother Liang, let's drink some?" ”

Yu Liang nodded and brought two bowls.

Lu Xiaoyi had a black line, and still poured the wine into the bowl proudly.

So, a man and a woman ate meat and drank wine, and a cat and a dog ate meat and gnawed bones.

It looked like a crystal clear elixir, but it was in full swing when he drank it, burning from his throat to his heart, Lu Xiaoyi only took a sip, and then he didn't dare to try again, and handed the wine bowl to the remaining grain.

Yu Liang smiled, took the wine bowl, and set it aside.

The two talked and ate vegetables, and finally they couldn't eat dumplings anymore.

When the firecrackers sounded at midnight, the two stood at the gate of the courtyard wrapped in quilts and watched the lively scenery at the bottom of the mountain.

In the past, I was in it, and now I am outside, looking at the sparkling fires under the mountain, there is a feeling that people outside the world are looking at the world, and even the fireworks that I have to look up to in previous years are now just looking at it, which is actually a different experience.

Lu Xiaoyi was overjoyed, looked up at the remaining grain, and saw a little fireworks reflected in his eyes, like two shrunken fireworks.

Yu Liang lowered his head and saw that Xiao Yi's slender eyes were curved like the moon, and his faint lips were like small wildflowers in the mountains and forests.

The two looked at each other, and they didn't care what firecrackers and fireworks, so they went to the house with the quilt on their heads, and as for what to do, of course, they did something more beautiful than fireworks.

When they returned to their parents' house in the second year of junior high school, the two cleaned up and went down the mountain with the gift.

In previous years, on the second day of the Lunar New Year, Yulan would take her children back to Wangjiaba, but now that Xiaoyi is coming back, Yulan will postpone the day of returning to Wangjiaba to the third day of the Lunar New Year.

Lu Xiaoyi prepared a small red envelope for his younger brothers and sisters, Xiao Ding Xiaogeng developed a habit and handed it to Yulan after taking the red envelope, but Xiao Rui did not, he turned out a small jar from the corner, and deducted the copper coins in the red envelope and threw it into the small jar.

Yulan smiled: "Our family's little money fans are very good at saving money. ”

Xiao Rui picked up the small jar and shook it, and then the thief glanced at everyone awkwardly, and mysteriously went to hide the jar.

Lu Xiaoyi tiptoed to his heels, was discovered by Xiaorui, and changed the place where the money was hidden.

Lu Xiaoyi said with a smile: "Now, there is a little squirrel that likes to hide pine nuts in winter, and it can't even find itself." ”

Xiao Rui looked at Xiao Yi suspiciously, "Is that little squirrel stupid?" ”

"Huh?"

"It's a fool who can't find what he's hiding, huh!" Xiao Rui went to another room with the small jar, and when he came back, he whispered in Lu Zhong's ear: "Dad, the little jar is hidden in the kang cabinet, you can help me remember it." ”

Lu Zhong laughed, picked up his youngest son and threw him high, "Okay, dad will help you remember." ”

Xiao Rui giggled and called out to his father affectionately.

This picture is too familiar, Lu Zhong also threw Xiao Geng high like this, Xiao Geng also giggled and shouted Dad, now Xiao Geng has grown into a polite young man, although he is a little envious, he still shows the demeanor and bearing that the eldest son should have.

Lu Xiaoyi went to see Xiao Geng, only to see that his tall figure was like a sturdy little poplar, the corners of his mouth were upturned and he smiled slightly, his eyes were shining like the waves of Qi Xi, and he exuded the unique vigor and vitality of the young man, mixed with a faint smell of books, and unconsciously Xiao Geng grew into a charming young man.

My family has a younger brother who has just grown up, Lu Xiaoyi was very relieved, and asked Xiao Geng with a smile: "Who will refer to the county test in February?" ”

Xiao Geng's face flashed with loss, "Mr. said that Shen Qiang, Liu Bao and Wu Feng can give it a try, saying that I am young and need to study in meditation for three years." ”

Lu Xiaoyi said: "Mr. is right, you see Bingyu is the best example, he was enlightened at the age of three to know a thousand words, five years old can memorize poems, seven years old began to read four books and five classics, just like that, he also studied until the age of fourteen before reference, although a test is successful, but the ranking is behind, what does this mean, it shows that there are people who are harder than him, harder than him, and more talented than him." ”

Xiao Geng was silent.

Yulan also said: "There are people outside the sky, there are so many people who read in the world, who is not a hard reader in Xia Sanfu and Dong Sanjiu, don't think that only you are working hard, there are more people than you who are diligent." ”

Xiao Geng said: "Mother, I didn't underestimate others. ”

Yulan smiled and said, "It's good that you don't underestimate it, you're only ten years old, and there's no harm in studying quietly for a few years." ”

Xiao Geng nodded.

Lu Zhong put Xiao Rui down, walked up to Xiao Geng, and patted his shoulder, "Boy, if you don't pass the exam, you'll come back to sell cakes." ”

Xiaorui was anxious, "Dad, Dad, I sell cakes and let my brother study." ”

"Look, our second boy is definitely a businessman when he grows up." Lu Zhong picked up Xiao Rui again and held him in his arms.

Lu Xiaoyi said to Xiao Geng: "Your brother-in-law has also studied for a few years, you two go to talk and talk, if you can't even compare with his knowledge, you can study in peace!" ”

Yu Liang said embarrassedly: "I'm ashamed, I wasted a few years, and the things I learned have already been returned to my husband." ”

Xiao Geng has always been close to Yu Liang and invited him to the study to talk, but Yu Liang had no choice but to get up and go with him. (To be continued.) )
