Chapter 123: Stealing Green
The sound of crackling firecrackers rang out one after another, including Hujia Village, and the surrounding ten miles were immersed in the lively atmosphere of the New Year's Festival.
This Chinese New Year's Eve, not only lively, is simply sumptuous!
Roast hen, stewed chicken soup, braised fish, stir-fried back to the pot meat, stir-fried pork slices, and bacon. A table full of meat.
Wei Dahe and Kong sat on the top position, Fox Dayou and Wei Sanniang sat on the left and right sides of the two, one on one side, Kong's precious grandson, let the fox fence follow Fox Dayou to sit on one side, and the fox fence incense sat next to Wei Sanniang, so Hu Xiaomei had to sit at the bottom with Thirteen.
Fox Otomo deliberately came back from the bazaar, and the purity of the wine at this time was not high, it was all rice wine. The big guy was happy, not only Wei Dahe and Fox Dayou, but also Thirteen served wine, and even Wei Sanniang and Kong poured a small bowl of rice wine.
The rice wine is just like the modern mash, I don't feel anything when I drink it, as long as I drink too much, my head will be dizzy after that, but it doesn't have the stamina of spilling in vain, so I generally don't have hangovers and headaches.
Hu Xiaomei took a sip of Wei Sanniang's wine bowl, immediately lowered her mouth, frowned, and said, "Spicy!" "I don't know where Fox Otomo bought it, but this time the rice wine was even stronger than the moromi and only took a small sip, and it burned her throat hot. However, it still can't compare to modern liquor.
Everyone laughed when they heard this, and Wei Dahe took a big sip of it, and then immediately praised: "Good wine." Then he asked the fox friend: "Where did you get this wine, it tastes quite good!" ”
"I opened a new winery, and I saw a lot of people buying it. I just want to buy it back and try it. Dad, what do you think? Fox Otomo said.
Wei Dahe nodded: "Yes, I'll go here to buy it in the future." This is wine, and only then can it be strong! ”
The fox fence next to him was curious, and then took the wine bowl of the fox friend: "I'll taste it too." After taking a big mouthful, he immediately opened his mouth, stretched out his tongue like a puppy, and complained: "What's good, it's too spicy." Grandpa, your taste is too heavy. ”
Wei Dahe looked at the fox fence and smiled. The hand flicked on his head. laughed and scolded: "If you kid can't drink it, don't come and spoil things, this kind of wine can be called wine!" You know! As he spoke, he took an empty bowl, opened the wine jar and said, "You kid is not too young, you have to learn to drink." The one who can drink is the real man! ”
The fox fence hurriedly took the bowl away. Protect yourself behind you. smiled and said, "Grandpa, you should drink such a good thing with my father, I don't have that mouthful." ”
Women's families and men think differently. Seeing that Wei Dahe wanted to teach the fox fence to drink, Kong immediately began to protect the fox fence, snatched the wine jar from Wei Dahe's hand, and said: "What's the good thing about drinking, don't pass on your bad problems to San'er." He said to the fox fence again: "Little San, you are doing the right thing, what kind of drinking is a real man, and I don't know which bullshit is said without making sense." It's right not to drink and sprinkle, eat vegetables, eat more vegetables to grow well! As he spoke, he took a chicken leg and put it in the fox fence bowl.
The fragrant chicken leg makes people drool when they look at it, the fox fence has long taken a fancy to this chicken leg, but he is embarrassed to clip it, how can he take care of it again and Wei Dahe at this time, pick up the chicken leg and gnaw it.
The appearance of eating meat and bones makes people have an appetite, and everyone picks up chopsticks to eat.
A Chinese New Year's Eve meal was warm and lively, with fox fences playing treasures, Wei Dahe said a few more small jokes, and throughout the night, there was constant laughter at the dinner table. After dinner, you have to keep the New Year, Wei Dahe and Kong are old, so they go back first, Hu Xiaomei and Hu Lixiang helped Wei Sanniang clean up the dishes and chopsticks and put them in the kitchen, Wei Sanniang didn't let the two help.
"Aren't you going out and stealing green? I'll clean it up here, you don't have to worry about it. ”
Deling, Fox Xiaomei and Fox Fence Xiang, as well as Fox Fence shouted "yes" one after another! Each took a jacket and put it on his body, and a group of four went out.
Stealing green is that on the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, after eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, the children at home can also invite the children of other families to go to the field together, turn around, play, pick some green vegetables and the like, something that can be eaten, and take it home.
It means a good omen for the coming year.
Of course, whoever steals is up to you, generally speaking, everyone will pick the family that has a good relationship with their family, and it is said that the person who was stolen will not have anything bad because the food has been picked, but it is a good thing. From another meaning, the people who come out to steal green are all going back with a good omen, and they are blessed, and their own things can be valued, which is considered to be a blessing, so the people who are stolen generally will not say anything.
In the first two years, Fox Xiaomei would go out with Fox Fence Xiang and Fox Fence to steal green every year on the Chinese New Year's Eve, and this time she was already familiar with the road, but Thirteen, it seemed that it was the first time to do this kind of thing, and she listened carefully to the three of Fox Xiaomei along the way, very curious.
The three of them went directly to the direction of Weijia Village according to the custom of previous years.
Because their family doesn't have a good relationship with each other in Hujia Village, Wei Qingbao often likes to come to his house to help, so they are also willing to bring this blessing to Wei Qingbao's family. Of course, Wei Qingbao also goes to Hu Xiaomei's vegetable field every year to steal green.
The two groups met on the way.
Wei Qingbao took Wei Qingzhu with him, followed by Fox Liyun and Fox Liyue, and was walking towards Hujia Village.
Fox Fence Xiang, Fox Xiaomei, Fox Fence, Thirteen, and four people are walking towards Weijia Village.
"Brother Qingbao, where are you going?" Fox Xiaomei looked at the two of them strangely behind Wei Qingbao.
It's not strange that Fox Liyun and Fox Liyue came out to steal Qingqing, but why did they go with Wei Qingbao?
"I'm going to go to your vegetable patch with Qingbao to steal green!" Wei Qingbao said with a smile, and asked her again: "Where are you going?" Seeing that Fox Lixiang and the others were looking at the fox Liyun behind them, they explained: "As soon as I entered the Fox Village, I saw the Liyun sisters wandering around the village, so they were together." ”
"Oh, yes!" Hu Xiaomei said with a smile, she didn't doubt Wei Qingbao's words, but she didn't have a good impression of Hu Liyun, and it was impossible to see her following Wei Qingbao at this time, without feeling uncomfortable. However, this person can't be too selfish, she had politely rejected Wei Qingbao's intention before, and it didn't make sense to care what woman he was dealing with at this time, and last time Wei Qingbao said that the family was already in Zhang Luo's family, he had good facial features, he was calm when he was only a teenager, and he could do business; And the fox fence cloud looks dignified and graceful, and the two are unexpectedly suitable together. The two hardly intersect on weekdays, but they can come together tonight?
Hu Xiaomei was suddenly shocked by this thought in her heart, could Wei Shiming really want to kiss Hu Yingdi?
After thinking about it like this, Hu Xiaomei didn't want to say more to Wei Qingbao, if it was really Wei Qingbao who took the fox fence cloud in the future, the relationship between their family and Wei Qingbao would be far away.
Hu Xiaomei turned around and pulled Hu Lixiang's arm, and said to Wei Qingbao: "Then Brother Qingbao, let's go first." ”
Wei Qingbao was a little confused, before Hu Xiaomei met him, they were all together, either go to the vegetable field of Wei Qingbao's house in Weijia Village first, or go to the vegetable field of Hu Xiaomei's house in Hujia Village first, and wait for the big guys to steal the green, and then go back, so that he can talk a lot to Hu Xiaomei in a circle in the two villages.
This time, Hu Xiaomei didn't invite him to join him.
Wei Qingbao wondered in his heart, when the two of them staggered by, he suddenly took two steps and shouted to Hu Xiaomei: "Second sister, anyway, it's all out to play, it's better for us to be together, there are more people to be lively!" ”
Then he pulled the reluctant Wei Qingzhu and followed Hu Xiaomei and his party back, and Wei Qingzhu kept calling the hesitant Hu Liyun: "Sister Liyun, let's go, hurry, let's go together, and I'll turn back later." ”
At Wei Qingzhu's strong request, Hu Liyun had no choice but to follow Hu Xiaomei and the others to Weijia Village with Hu Liyue.
There are a few more fox fence clouds, and the four of them are much quieter than before, and a few people came to Wei Qingbao's vegetable field, which is two points large, and the ground is full of radishes, white radishes and red-skinned and white-hearted radish.
"Brother Qingbao, why do you grow so many radishes in your family?" Hu Xiaomei said in surprise.
"I eat radish in winter and ginger in summer, I can eat it myself, and I can sell it. This thing is very easy to sell at this time, and after the New Year, I will start to grow other vegetables. Wei Qingbao said, watching Hu Xiaomei's eyes turn in the vegetable field, and didn't speak again.
The owner of the vegetable field cannot take the initiative to invite others to steal his own vegetables.
After choosing for a while, Hu Xiaomei decisively pulled out a big and thick white radish, and she laughed: "Such a big one is enough for stewed soup!" ”
"It's so dark, second sister, your eyes are still so good!" Wei Qingbao looked at Hu Xiaomei gently, she couldn't see the expression on her face clearly in the dark night, but her black eyes like jewels were particularly bright.
Then the fox fence also plucked a white radish, and the fox fence incense plucked a red-skinned and white-hearted radish.
"Take it and cut it into slices, soak it and eat it."
Seeing that the three of them all pulled radishes in Wei Qingbao's house, Fox Liyun also went to the field to pull out a white radish, and Fox Liyun picked them all, and Hu Liyue had to pick vegetables at Wei Qingbao's house. The more people, the better, but the loss of Wei Qingbao's family is not small, and the radishes in the circle of feet have been pulled.
Fox Xiaomei glanced at Fox Liyun with a smile, and said to Wei Qingbao: "Fortunately, only these people came over, if the whole village steals green people come over, Brother Qingbao, your radish field will definitely have to be pulled out." ”
"How can it be so exaggerated, besides, this is not a normal day, Chinese New Year's Eve, stealing Qing is not stealing." Wei Qingbao said with a smile, happy that Hu Xiaomei was talking and laughing with himself again, and he didn't hear the other meaning of Hu Xiaomei's words.
Except for those who were thinking in other places, those who didn't pay attention to listening could hear what the fox was saying.
Fox Fence Xiang looked at Fox Fence Cloud expressionlessly, took the radish in the hands of Fox Xiaomei and Fox Fence, tied them together, and carried them in his hand. And the fox fence cloud's expression froze, and then it returned to normal.
After Hu Xiaomei and a few people stole the green, it was time for Wei Qingbao to turn around, and the group left Weijia Village and returned to Hujia Village. (To be continued......)
