After it got dark, Abu, accompanied by Jinglong, went to the various guard parts of the basin to inspect it.

Yu Jinglong said that the staff on duty have been arranged, and the average sentry time of everyone is less than an hour, and they can get time to reunite with their families.

By the time Abu had finished inspecting all the posts and returned to the house, Yun Niang had already lit a charcoal fire.

The table in the room is full of all kinds of preserved fruits, pastries, and all kinds of fried meat and fruits.

People are sometimes really strange, usually reluctant to eat, reluctant to use the meat oil, but at the end of the year, but it is open to use. All kinds of delicious food should be fried in oil, as if this is the only way to taste more delicious.

Today, the three of Abu went to the hot springs to take a bath, washed themselves clean, and washed away the busyness and dust of the year.

Wu Ye's little face was red under the steaming charcoal steam.

Wu Ye's eating appearance is not very good, his mouth is always stuffed, but he still holds all kinds of delicious delicacies in his hands.

Yun Niang patted him lightly and told him to eat slowly, no one will rob you.

Wu Ye took a sip of yogurt, turned his head and asked Abu, "Master, what are we doing now?" ”

"Keep the New Year! According to the custom, you have to stay up late tonight and can't sleep. ”

"What are you doing with the New Year?"

"Today is the last day of the year, and after tonight, tomorrow will be the next year, and you will be a year older.

The reason why I stayed up a little longer tonight is to tell people to cherish time, and the past time will never come back.

There is also a theory that once upon a time, the year was a very ferocious monster.

It will only come out on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, and when everyone is asleep, it will come out to catch the children and eat. ”

After speaking, he grimaced, scaring Wu Ye with his teeth and claws.

Wu Ye also opened his teeth and claws, screamed in his mouth, and laughed with Abu; Yun Niang looked at it and giggled on the side.

After arguing with Wu Ye for a while, Abu continued: "But if people put red couplets on the door and keep watch in the house without sleeping, they will not dare to come in again. ”

"Then I won't sleep, so that it doesn't dare to come to our house." Wu Yeyuan said with his eyes open.

While he was eating next to him, he listened to Abu and Yun Niang chatting.

"In the past, when we were at Taichang Temple, the sisters would also keep vigil on Chinese New Year's Eve.

At that time, we would also take the time to go out, and we felt that all kinds of food and fun sold in the market were so attractive, and we couldn't smell enough of the aroma wafting on the street.

But we don't have much money, so we can only swallow saliva secretly, and try not to look at or smell it.

In the end, I walked through the whole market, and it was only enough to buy some cheap snacks to eat back.

In the evening, we hugged the quilt, hugged each other, ate some food we bought, and whispered......

At that time, I was left with the feeling that Chinese New Year's Eve was very dark, cold, and hungry.

Alas! I don't know how those sisters are doing now. ”

Yun Niang's voice said softly, as if she was recalling a distant dream.

Abu didn't disturb her memories either, and the two were silent for a long time by the warm stove.

Then Yun Niang suddenly seemed to wake up, raised her head and asked, "Tell me how you celebrated the New Year at that time." ”

"Oh, we were quite lively back then.

At night, the eyes are brightly lit, similar to the daytime.

On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, the Spring Festival Gala will be broadcast on TV.

The TV is a large rectangular glass, which can play all kinds of recorded programs, including songs, dances, cross talk, sketches, and so on.

But I've seen a lot, and that's it. In terms of eating and drinking, there may be more types than the current ones.

Some food manufacturers in later generations can prepare a variety of different flavors of food according to people's preferences.

But this situation is not too good, because many foods will put a lot of preservatives and additives......

Consuming this product for a long time can have a bad effect on the body. ”

The two chatted without a word, and suddenly felt that Wu Ye had not moved for a long time, and when he looked back, he found that the little guy who was still full of confidence and ready to keep the New Year together just now was already like a deflated ball, and fell softly next to Yun Niang.

The two of them stretched out their hands in unison, ready to pick up Wu Ye, so their hands touched together.

Abu rubbed Yun Niang's hand intentionally or unintentionally, Yun Niang looked at Abu, smiled toothily, and said, "I'll come." ”

After speaking, Yun Niang carefully picked up Wu Ye and placed him on the bed. Then they returned to the charcoal fire, and the two occasionally moved their hands to eat some delicious snacks while slowly chatting about homely things.

At the same time, Uncle Zhang's family, Zhang Caier's family of four, plus Li Yan, the atmosphere was much warmer.

Zhang Caier's brother Zhang Liang kept greeting Mr. Li Yan and pouring wine and vegetables.

Zhang Cai'er sat quietly next to her, and her thoughts were already out of the window, she was imagining what Mr. Abu and Mr. Female were doing and saying at this time.

She didn't even hear A-Niang ask her to eat vegetables, so she was blamed by Aunt Zhang, what's wrong with this girl, as if she has lost her soul, be careful that the Nian Beast will take you away.

Zhang Caier smiled apologetically, took some snacks in her hand, and continued to think about her thoughts. A-Niang can only sigh, her daughter has grown up, and she won't tell her mother about her heart.

Li Baotian's house, Li Baotian and Liu Yuanlu are together, like two brothers, holding each other's shoulders, and the content of their words has nothing to do with the New Year.

It's not about how to change the color of the glass, or how you can improve the efficiency of soap.

Speaking of excitement, he raised his glass and touched it, craned his neck and drank it all, followed by a hearty laugh.

While Wei and the child were eating, they secretly resented Li Baotian next to him: What does it look like to throw away his wife and children and hug a big man during the New Year!

In Li Yuhong's house, Huang took a tiger's head and fiddled with an iron shelf in the house, on which were pieces of mutton skewered with bamboo sticks.

Mr. Abu said that the lamb roasted in this way is tender and delicious. Hutou asked while eating barbecue, I don't know how Uncle Yuhong is now, whether he has barbecue to eat.

Huang comforted him that his uncle was an adult and could take care of himself, and his heart added a sense of longing and sorrow.

At Lao Yang Tou's house, Lao Yang Tou and his children Da Zhuang and Er Zhuang touched their glasses, and the two strong young men were spicy and bared their teeth at the same time: "Dad, what kind of wine is this, why is it so spicy!" ”

"Hehe, rabbit cub, the legendary elixir and jade liquid, that's it, this is a condensed rice wine, all grain * Hua."

Lao Yang Tou finally distilled the rice wine he brewed, and the concentrated high-concentration liquor is really strong enough to drink!

At the same time, thousands of miles away, Zhang Cuihu and the three of them followed Abu's teachings along the way, paying attention to the products of various places, inquiring about outstanding people, and circled a lot of information on the map.

After a long journey, it has now entered the boundary of Shangzhou, the eastern province of Shannan. Unfortunately, it was snowing heavily and they couldn't move forward, and there were only three of them left in the entire store. The shopkeeper was also kind and invited the three of them to join their families for Chinese New Year's Eve.

When asked about the itinerary of the three of them, they said that they were going to Nanyang, Dengzhou, to look for people who could make water exhaust windmills.

The shopkeeper thought for a while, patted his thigh, and said I remembered something: a few years ago, a father and daughter were sharpening in the store, and an official eunuch saw that the woman was handsome, so he stepped forward to tease. Of course, the man who was the father did not allow it, and stepped forward to stop him, and was punched and kicked by the dog slave who followed, breaking one of his legs.

The father was also angry, and he didn't make a sound to beg for mercy, I was afraid that someone would die, so I stepped forward to dissuade him. The prince was originally the grandson of a retired high-ranking official, and the relationship between the DPRK and China was intertwined, and no one dared to provoke the local officials in the jurisdiction of the state capital in this area, so he had to be allowed to go away.

Later, I helped find Lang Zhong to see his illness, and during the chat, he said that he originally inherited his ancestral business and made a living by making water and windmills.

After the decline of the family, I came to Lantian to look for relatives, I saw that although the man was riddled with injuries, he still spoke freely and elegantly, so he was very impressed.

After hearing this, the three of them looked at each other, saying this, it turned out that they had gone too far!

Late at night, the three of them thanked the store for their hospitality and went back to the room to rest, and after several discussions, it was agreed that they would return to Lantian to look for it first, which was not far from Shangzhou anyway. If there is no result, it is not too late to go back to Nanyang.

At this time, Abu was talking to Yun Niang about whether there were any beautiful women, close friends or anything in Taichang Temple, and whether they needed to be rescued and released.

Yun Niang sneered: "Look at it, fully expose someone's perverted nature; In addition, as far as the walnuts and dates in your pocket are concerned, people don't look down on them at all.

If you want to free a person, you have to spend a lot of money, and it is a bottomless pit at all, and you can't fill it up no matter how you fill it. ”

Abu sighed, look at what you said, I'm not afraid that you will be lonely here, I want to find you a good sister to be a companion, what is really biting Lu Dongbin, I don't know the hearts of good people.

Yun Niang asked what kind of allusion this was, so Abu told her the story about the immortal Lu Dongbin.

After hearing this, Yun Niang slapped him on the shoulder and scolded with a smile: "Okay, it turns out that you are scolding me for being a puppy." ”

Abu took the opportunity to grab her hand, held it in his hand, and said with a smile: "This is what you said, I didn't say anything." ”

Yun Niang twitched, didn't pull out her hand, and let him hold it. The white and soft hands exude a light fragrance and refresh people's hearts.

For a moment, both of them were silent, and the atmosphere became subtle and charming. Occasionally, Yun Niang turned her head and looked at Abu's hot and affectionate eyes, and her eyes were gentle and drunk.

I don't know how long it took, but Abu asked, "Do you want to go back to your hometown and see if there are any other relatives?" ”

Yun Niang sighed, she didn't expect how Abu would ask this question, and gently withdrew her hand and put it on her lap. said that he had thought about it before, but the distance was too far, and he had to make a sea boat, so he forgot about it.

Abu said, "When Kaichun is busy with some things, let's go to sea together and go to Silla to see if your parents are still alive, and then bring them together." ”

Yun Niang was excited for a while, she could go back to her hometown in her memory, but she had been hovering in her heart for a long, long time.

Abu's next words made her shy and embarrassed.

"It's not a matter for us to go on like this, we have to hurry up, hurry up and pay homage to the high hall, and get married."

So she could only stare at Abu with those beautiful, crescent-like eyes, without the slightest lethal force.

Abu smiled and looked back at her, no matter how much he looked, he couldn't get enough of it!
