When the four of them returned home, Wei Sanniang and Fox Dayou were still keeping the New Year, and seeing Thirteen holding three radishes and a potato in their hands, Wei Sanniang had already guessed whose family it was.

"Qingbao's radish grows well this year, but where are these potatoes? I remember that Qingbao's family didn't grow potatoes in the field now? ”

Fox Xiaomei's eyes were thirteen, and she felt that this person was very strange, the big guys were stealing green in Wei Qingbao's vegetable field, he didn't move, and he didn't see him pick any vegetables after going back and forth in the two villages, but the group walked to Fox Xiaomei's vegetable field, Wei Qingbao was originally going to pick Fox Xiaomei's vegetables, who knew that Wei Qingzhu proposed that Fox Liyun steal green in their vegetable field, and also go to Fox Liyun and Fox Liyue's house. How can only two people go to the vegetable field of three families?

Everyone in the village knew the relationship between Wei Qingbao and Hu Xiaomei's family, and Hu Liyun said very generously: "It doesn't matter, whose family is not picking?" ”

Wei Qingbao is even more embarrassed, if he picks the fox fence cloud, he will inevitably have to pick the fox fence Yue's family, what should the fox Xiaomei's family do?

Wei Qingbao hesitated, it was not a big deal, but Hu Xiaomei felt depressed in her heart, but she didn't expect that Thirteen, who had not moved all night, dug a potato in the vegetable field of Hu Xiaomei's house.

Although Thirteen lives in Fox Xiaomei's house, he has no relationship with Fox Xiaomei's family, so this green can be stolen. Naturally, in the end, Wei Qingbao and Wei Qingzhu picked the vegetables of Fox Liyun and Fox Liyue's house.

Everyone seemed to have a tacit understanding, no one mentioned this, when Wei Sanniang asked, Hu Lixiang said: "Thirteen is not from our family, the first time to celebrate the New Year in this place, of course it is okay to steal our family's green!" ”

Wei Sanniang and Fox Dayou naturally had no doubts.

Keeping the New Year is just a meaning. When the child arrived, the whole family was resting.

The second day is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and there is a custom that the house cannot sweep the floor on this day, even if it is forced to sweep, it must be swept from the door to the yard. There is also the fact that women can't walk around casually on this day.

Fox Xiaomei took the melon and fruit out, and sat at home with Wei Sanniang, Fox Lixiang, Fox Dayou, and Thirteen eating snacks and chatting. The fox fence had breakfast and ran out early to play.

On the second day of the first month, the woman wants to go back to her parents' house.

Wei Sanniang and Hu Dayou took Hu Xiaomei and a few people back to Weijia Village. The two villages are close to each other. It's there in three or two steps. Wei Dahe and Kong had already begun to prepare for noon. There are still delicious snacks at home, but I am afraid that the three sisters and brothers of Fox Xiaomei and Fox Lixiang will be bored.

Wei Dahe and Kong are not stubborn people, and Thirteen has no relatives, so they came back with Wei Sanniang. The two were not at all unhappy. Affectionate greetings thirteen. Thirteen is also quite clever. Helping Kong Shi in and out.

After eating noon, a few people stayed for a while and then returned to Hujia Village.

After the second and third days of the first month. On the fourth day of the new year, you can go out and walk around, and the fifth and sixth girls have to stay at home, and the fox Xiaomei and the fox fence are not people who like to go out to play, and they have been staying at home since they came back from Weijia Village on the second day of the new year, until the Lantern Festival, the dragon boat racing activity begins!

The dragon boat race is held in the "Shunhe" ten miles outside the city of Wei County, the width of the river is dozens of zhang, passing through Wei County, the plate stretches long, there are countless branches and small streams in the middle, several large canals are connected in succession, and the upper and lower flows flow into the two major rivers.

The dragon boat race is held in the afternoon of the Lantern Festival, and in the morning, the county magistrate leads the officials of Wei County, and some large families worship the dragon king in Shun Hanoi.

Weijia Town is too far away from Wei County, even if Hu Xiaomei is itchy and unbearable, there is no way to watch, so she can only hear about the situation in the bazaar about the situation of previous years.

However, each township and village also has its own activity, that is, the dragon boat. It just so happens that there is a big river between Weijia Village and Hujia Village, and the dragon boat is carried out in that river every year.

In the middle of the afternoon, Wei Sanniang began to prepare dinner, and the fox fence prepared the skeleton dragon boat she bought before, wiped it with a soft cloth, and carefully held it in her hand. After dinner, the three sisters and brothers of the fox fence and the thirteenth went out of the house together. Wei Sanniang and the fox general simply cleaned up their house and went to the river.

There have been a lot of people by the river, the small river in each village is casual by themselves, and those who have the mind will pick some flowers or other beautiful things to hang on the tree, and some people have folded all kinds of paper flowers and hung them on the tree, so as to have a festive picture. Hujia Village is close to Deweijia Town, go up a road, you can see red lanterns hanging on the trees on both sides of the river, there are a lot of vendors set up stalls by the river, what to eat, play, use, paper boats, etc., on both sides of the street, and people on both sides of the river, wearing red and green, pretty shadow and beautiful back, handsome son, dignified lady, everyone wears gorgeous costumes and beautiful ornaments, very good-looking. The pretty sons and buddies walked together in twos and threes, and occasionally recited poems against each other. The daughters of Yingying Yanyan are gathered together, wearing all kinds of luxurious fur clothes, or covering their mouths and smiling, or charming and coquettish.

Even the eyes of Hu Xiaomei, who is a woman, are straight!

The lively atmosphere is a hundred times stronger than in the village!

Fox Xiaomei four people along the river all the way to Weijia Town, this year seems to be more lively in previous years, the river surrounded people, Hu Xiaomei found a gap place to drill in, a look, there are already sparse river lights in the river, but there is no dragon boat.

The river lights twinkling in the wind are more conspicuous than the dragon boats!

"Sister, why didn't I know that I could still put river lanterns?" The fox Xiaomei said discouragedly, I knew that buying a river lantern was cheaper than a dragon boat, and it was even better!

"It's not just this year, but every year, but we didn't come to the town before, and the big guy in the village, Tujili, put the dragon boat." Fox Fence Xiang said.

Fifteen dragon boat races, dragon boats, dragon boats, related to dragons, of course, it is a blessed thing, the big guy Tujili, want to get more blessings, I hope that the dragon king can bless the canal and have a good harvest in the coming year.

Looking at the people on the shore again, except for some rich ladies, the son holds beautiful river lanterns, and more people are holding dragon boats, big and small, so not magnificent! In this way, Hu Xiaomei didn't complain in her heart, anyway, the things had already been bought. The only blame is that she cared too little about these things before.

A few people found a slightly looser position, and one of the three people held a dragon boat in his hand, and the dragon boat in the hands of the fox Xiaomei was the most conspicuous, the palm was big, and the flowers were green, and they were put into the river, but they would be instantly submerged by the dragon boat army, and they couldn't see it.

Fox Xiaomei pouted, unwilling, she didn't want to put her dragon boat into the river and not be able to see it, she looked around, picked some flowers in the grass, and then wrapped the flowers and vines together, made a wreath, tied the wreath to the stern of the boat and threw it into the river, such a big ball of flowers will always be conspicuous.

The idea was quite good, but after Thirteen glanced at her, he bluntly hit her: "Your garland is too heavy, and when the time comes, when it is immersed in water, although it will not sink to the bottom of the water, it will still sink below the surface of the water, and it will inevitably pull the boat down when the time comes!" ”

When the time comes, if something is entangled again, her dragon ship will be completely scrapped!

Hu Xiaomei had no choice but to throw away the garland, looked at Thirteen, and said, "Then what do you say?" ”

Thirteen dark eyes looked at her, her eyes flashed, and the corners of her mouth were slightly hooked, giving people the illusion of smiling but not smiling: "It's not simple, go buy some oil paper, let's fold some paper boats together, all tied to the back of the dragon boat, you can't attract people's attention." ”

A long string of oil-paper boats can be seen even from a high bridge!

Fox Xiaomei clapped her hands and applauded, and immediately called the fox fence to buy oil paper, and told the two of them her thoughts, and the fox fence also felt that this method was very good, and when the time came, all the dragon boats of the three people would be lined up together, and that would be good-looking!

The fox fence rushed to the pen and ink paper shop to buy oil paper, cut it, the four of them found a place to sit down, and immediately folded it quickly, the sky gradually darkened, and the people by the river gathered more and more, because the red lanterns were lit, the hazy light red light shone on the shore, adding a touch of hazy beauty to the people on the shore. Many young men and women who had already made an appointment also took the opportunity to quietly get together at this time.

There are more and more river lights in the river, and the shadows are abundant, and the light is dotted, flowing and drifting in a winding river, just like the stars in the sky!

I don't know who was the first to do it, put down the first dragon boat, and there were dragon boats drifting down from the upstream one after another.

Fox Xiaomei quickly glanced at the river, folded the last piece of oil paper, and the oil paper dragon boats were all tied together with threads, there were one or two hundred, a long line, which was eye-catching!

Finally, the dragon boat of the four people of Fox Xiaomei was tied to the front in turn, not to mention the fox fence, even the fox fence and Fox Xiaomei were very excited, the four of them walked all the way upstream along the river, and finally found a place with few people, Fox Xiaomei gently put the three dragon boats into the river, and a long string of small oil-paper boats behind, four or five meters long, like a dragon in the water, amazed the people on both sides of the river.

"Wow, look, what's that, it's long!"

Someone was the first to discover the dragon boat of the four of Hu Xiaomei, and someone shouted out, which naturally attracted the attention of other people, and immediately some people exclaimed one after another.

"It's so beautiful! That dragon boat is so long! ”

"Hey, it doesn't seem to be one, one, two, three, there are actually three dragon boats tied together, what is a long list behind it...... It's actually a dragon ship...... Oh no, it's a paper boat...... Oh my God, who thought of it, it's so pretty! ”

As soon as the dragon fleet of three dragon boats rushed into the middle of the river, it attracted everyone's attention, it was like a king of water, coming and going in the water freely, more than countless exquisite and beautiful dragon boats, they were mediocre, not even elaborate, but the most eye-catching. The black skull dragon boat dragon boat head rises high, leaving a long series of winding waterlines behind it!

The four of Hu Xiaomei excitedly followed the dragon fleet along the river bank, and as the dragon fleet entered the dense release area, more and more people noticed the dragon boat of Hu Xiaomei. Even some rich kids are attracted by this little dragon fleet!

On the high arch bridge on the river, a handsome man with a jade tree facing the wind was looking at the small dragon fleet in the middle of the river lightly, and a man who was traveling with him bumped his elbow against him, and said with a smile: "There are so many exquisite and beautiful boats, but in terms of unique innovation, I think that small dragon fleet is the first!" What do you think, Brother Wei! (To be continued......)
