Chapter Forty-Eight: An Unforgettable Mid-Autumn Night
In the countryside, few people pay attention to National Day and May Day, but the annual Dragon Boat Festival and Chinese New Year's Eve are the three most important festivals, people who still get up early in the morning come to the fields with joy, because today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, the day of reunion, you can go home after a morning of work, take out the melon and fruit mooncakes that have been prepared, make a table of delicious dishes, the family has a long talk, telling what happiness and misfortune have been experienced in the days when they are separated from each other!
As a big family in Miaotou Village, the Zhao family attaches great importance to the Mid-Autumn Festival, and began to prepare early. It's true: the lanterns are colorful, the paper is cut out of flowers, the vegetables are picked and the dishes are washed!
Wu Nian's house at the head of the village, the golden frog tricycle stopped at the door, Uncle Wu went out to greet him, Leng Feng entered the door with both hands and fists to salute his uncle, the family members moved gifts to the courtyard in large bags, and the gifts filled the stone table of the pavilion, Uncle Wu has never been respected like this in his life for half his life, looking at Wu Nian dotingly, his face is full of smiles, people say that the first half of his life looks at his father and respects his son, and the second half of his life looks at his son and respects his father, it seems that Wu Nian will win glory for the family!
Under the sunlight, Leng Feng's bald head was particularly dazzling, and he gave Wu Nian a bear hug tightly, and warmly invited Uncle Wu to Zhao's house for the festival together, and finally Wu Nian politely refused because of his mother's inconvenience, and Leng Feng left after a few idle words, there are still many gifts in the car that have not been distributed, and the time is still very urgent!
After Uncle Wu packed up the gifts sent by Leng Feng, he moved out four boxes from the house, and he was very concerned about the details of the exchange of gifts in the simple countryside, on the occasion of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Wu Nian, as an uncle, should go to visit his father-in-law and mother-in-law!
After a period of ideological struggle, Wu Nian went to Zhao's house with gifts, and when she left, Aunt Wu also told her a bunch of etiquette, so that Wu Nian could listen to one head and two big!
After walking through the path countless times, Wu Nian felt so difficult for the first time, and the blind dates he met on the road took the initiative to greet Wu Nian, praising the child for being really sensible, and preparing so many gifts for his father-in-law and mother-in-law during the Mid-Autumn Festival, he will definitely be able to achieve great things in the future!
When he was about to arrive at Zhao's house, he hung up a phone call to Leng Yue in advance, although he couldn't see Leng Yue's expression, but he could hear the other party's surprised tone between the words, after all, it was the first time for the two of them to encounter this kind of thing, and they tacitly showed nervousness with each other!
After entering the door, Zhao Jian politely accepted the gift, led Wu Nian Lengyue to the living room, and entered the door, Wu Nian knelt on the ground stiffly, clasped his fists with both hands, and raised it above his head: "Little son-in-law Wu Nian, I wish my father-in-law and mother-in-law a happy Mid-Autumn Festival, a long life and good health!" Leng Yue's mother helped Wu Nian with a smile on her face, she was still very optimistic about this aunt Leng Yue's mother, and after ordering her to sit down, she politely asked about the situation of her family!
Leng Yue stood next to Wu Nian awkwardly, not daring to interject in the conversation between her parents and Wu Nian, half an hour later, Wu Nian Leng Yue walked out of the room, looking at Wu Nian who was sweating profusely, Leng Yue laughed out loud, took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat off Wu Nian's head, causing a burst of boos in the courtyard!
After instructing Wu Nian to go back and bring it to his uncle and aunt, Leng Yue was busy with sticker flowers, Wu Nian returned home with a sense of relief, and when she heard that everything was going well, Aunt Wu was relieved to prepare dinner!
At seven o'clock in the evening, the whole village is unified that it is dinner time, the village is filled with fireworks, firecrackers are ringing, children are playing in groups on the street, hearing the call of their mothers and reluctant to separate from their partners and return home!
Zhao Fu sat in the main seat in the restaurant, and the men and women of the Zhao family sat on the left and right sides according to the backup, after a brief summary, the dinner began, and there was a round moon hanging in the sky, the light set off the moonlight, and there was a strong festival smell between the cups and lamps!
A loud "knock" outside the door broke the peaceful atmosphere in the courtyard, Zhao Jian, the general manager, put down the chopsticks and went out to check, just went out for a few seconds, and flew upside down and fell back into the restaurant, the Zhao family was surprised, and walked into the compound under the leadership of Zhao Jianbang to see what was going on!
A black sarcophagus is placed in the center of the courtyard, the blood-red word on the coffin head is particularly dazzling, the lid of the hall is half open, and a person sitting on it is Qin Tianhong, and the four people behind him each have a black carbon steel Kaishan knife in their hands, seeing the Zhao family come out, Qin Tianhong said with a smile, "The Mid-Autumn Festival is boring, we have few people, come to your house to join in the fun, I didn't prepare any gifts, this sarcophagus is for you, whoever falls in love can come over and try the right one."
The words were full of contempt and arrogance, Zhao Fu stepped forward and asked, "Mr. Qin is not at home during the Mid-Autumn Festival, what is the purpose of running to me?" ”
"Ming people don't say secret words, I know the second of the four words, Zhao Rong's body is too decomposed and cannot be recognized, as long as you tell me the remaining two words, I can consider not killing the Zhao family within a year" Qin Tianhong didn't look at the Zhao family directly, and lowered his head to wipe the soil on the sarcophagus!
Zhao Fu looked at him without saying a word, his attitude was already obvious, he would not reveal half a word, he was the only person in the world who knew what the four-character mantra was, and Zhao Fu had no choice but to commit suicide and bring the news to the grave!
Leng Feng understood his grandfather's attitude, threw a chair casually, and after being blocked by Qin Tianhong with a wave of his hand, the war between the two sides was about to break out, and the strong and strong family members rushed into the melee with their weapons, but no one noticed that a man in black in the corner quickly sneaked into the residential area with the Zhao family's lost key disk, quietly opened a door, and walked in!
It is rare for the family to reunite, Wu Nian sandwiched the dishes for his parents at the dining table, chatting about the family scene, a figure stopped in the courtyard under the window, and said through the glass, "Wu Nian, give me the words that Zhao Fu wrote to you, I will protect your parents without worry, otherwise today is the death date of the three of you" After that, he pulled out a large bucket from behind him, and poured it around the house, and for a time the pungent smell of gasoline surrounded the whole house, and all the windows were installed with steel guards for safety purposes, blocking the bad guys from entering and also blocking their own people from going out, The door was supported by the man in black with a wooden stick outside, and at this moment, Wu Nian and the three of them could not escape from the room at all, if they could not satisfy the man in black, then the only thing waiting for them was to be burned alive......
