Chinese New Year's Eve II 156
In the early morning, smoke from the chimneys of every house in the village seems to come sooner than usual to welcome the new year.
Tao Zhenkun and Liu Xingmei got up together, Tao Zhenkun wanted to feed the donkey, and Liu Xingmei had to cook. The two of them first went to the East House and asked their father and mother to say goodbye. Since Liu Xingmei married into the Tao family, she has developed this habit, which is also a traditional virtue of the Chinese.
Before I could eat, I heard the sound of a woman croaking a chicken in the east and west courtyards, as if a chicken had been lost.
Liu Xingmei went out of the house to hear what was going on, and she asked the East Courtyard in a loud voice: "Sister-in-law Yanping, have you lost your chicken?" ”
Li Yanping said in the east courtyard: "Yes, there is one less reed hen in the nest." Big sister, did you see that you went to your house? ”
Liu Xingmei looked around the yard, but there was no shadow of a chicken, so she replied, "No, I didn't hear that a wolf is coming again!" ”
Tao Zhenkun also came out.
"I have a chicken that was bitten to death by something, and it looks like a weasel!" The voice from the West Courtyard was Ruan Qingfang.
Tao Zhenkun didn't speak, so he rushed to the chicken coop.
Liu Xingmei said: "Don't look at it, those two chickens are here." ”
"It seems to be recruiting Lao Huang!" Tao Zhenkun said.
After breakfast, Tao Zhenkun picked up a bucket and went to the well in the village to carry water.
When leaving, Tao Zhenkun said to Liu Xingmei: "If you are fine, go and ask if the Meng family has found the chicken, and if not, help find it." ”
"Okay." Liu Xingmei responded.
There has been a custom in the village for many years, that is, every household must fill the tank with water before the year, and the latest is also limited to one morning on Chinese New Year's Eve, and at nearly noon, the people of the Wu family pasted a piece of hanging money and the character "Jingquan Longwang" on the well platform, and then lit a stick of incense, which is regarded as sealing the well, and it is not allowed to draw water until after the fifth day of the first month. This probably means that there is a meaning of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new.
The red sun rolled out of the thin clouds like a fireball, and the pale blue clouds were painted with a ruddy glow. Magpies, crows, and sparrows are noisy and noisy in the trees, and in such snowy days when food is hard to find, they sometimes fly around blindly in search of life-sustaining food. However, it is only when they cannot fill their stomachs at all that their tenacious will and vitality can be revealed.
In front of the well, people were fetching water in an endless stream, coming and going, although there was no queue, but it was also orderly. After the Chinese New Year, what people need is harmony and joy, even if there is friction, it will be resolved peacefully in tolerance. Everyone is wearing cotton clothes, cotton hats, cotton shoes, and cotton gloves. When it's cold, it can drip into ice, making it feel colder than everyday.
After Tao Zhenkun picked three picks of water into the tank, the tank was already full, but he still had to pick a fourth pick, which could be regarded as a reserve and could be used for two more days. Although this heavy snow is unique in many people's impressions, because of the use of saving, it is not like Liu Xingmei said, you can't carry water and turn snow water to eat. Liu Xingmei was not at home, probably went to Meng's house.
The sun rises high and makes people feel much warmer. On the way, he saw several families with adults and children pasting money and couplets, some of them pasted yesterday, but most of them were pasted on the day of the Chinese New Year.
When he came to the well again, there were only a few people who had come to fetch water. It was Zhu Le who was shaking in front of the well platform, and when he saw him slowly soaring, he had to stand aside and wait. Originally, a bucket could be filled with a bucket, but Zhu Le scored twice to fill a bucket, I am afraid that a whole bucket will not be able to hit, and there is a bucket on the side that is half drained. At this time, Zhu Le tilted his neck and squinted at him, still unhurried, as if he was deliberately delaying time. In his eyes, Tao Zhenkun clearly saw that he had the intention of provocation and was deliberately embarrassing him. So, he couldn't help but say angrily:
"Hurry up, don't rub your cunt, I'm still waiting!"
Zhu Le turned his head and smiled ambiguously, but then said coldly: "What's the hurry?" You don't have any nursing children!"
There was a thorn in his words, which made Tao Zhenkun feel angry when he heard it, but he still endured it, he was like Liu Xingmei, he really couldn't look down on this dwarf with half an eyeball. If he were to be replaced by another young man in the village, who was so outrageous, he would definitely be punished with punches and kicks. Maybe this "duck fart" (nickname) thinks he is weak and bulliable, which is why he is so arrogant and doesn't take him seriously.
"This well belongs to yours?"
"What's wrong with that?!"
"Why don't you move your kang head?" As soon as Tao Zhenkun said this, he suddenly felt like a woman who was messing around, looking bored and weak! Although he is a man, he does not have Liu Xingmei's domineering, if it were her, probably Zhu Le would not dare to be so rude!
Zhu Le held the roller in his hand and spat on the ground, as if he also thought that his words were too childish and ridiculous, so he smiled and said: "Your daughter-in-law looks like a man, but you look like a woman!" You said you were going to invite everyone to eat wolf meat, why did you give it to Widow Wu again?"
Tao Zhenkun felt awkward when he heard the word "widow", but he still swallowed his anger and said: "The wolf wears Miao Yunchang's unicorn copper lock around his neck, which is related to the Miao family, so——"
"Then you must have eaten wolf meat?"
"Of course!"
"Anything else?"
"Do you want to eat?"
"I just love that bite."
Tao Zhenkun couldn't help but sneered: "You love too much, who can satisfy you?" If you want to instigate bones, you have to go to my black tiger to be company, and if you want to smell it, you have to go to the pit to squat. ”
"What are you talking about, it sounds a little unpleasant!"
"I want to be pleasing to the ear unless I sing one to you, but unfortunately I'm not in that mood!"
"What are you talking about, you have learned to regulate people, have you learned from your wife?"
"You don't care about that."
Zhu Le felt bored, so he put an empty rubber bucket into the well, and then let go of the hand holding the roller handle, and the person hid to the side, the roller rotated faster with the speed of the rubber bucket descending, he stood on the edge of the well platform, and his foot on the ice skate suddenly slipped, and he was stumbling, and he was almost hit in the arm by the roller.
Tao Zhenkun scolded secretly when he looked at it from the sidelines: Why don't you let the roller beat you like a pole!
Zhu Le glanced at him hurriedly, slightly embarrassed. Tao Zhenkun pretended not to see it, he looked at the scenery elsewhere, but the smile that had not disappeared could still be caught at the corner of his lips.
