Chapter 106: The Red Lantern
"Third master, are you busy, have you eaten?" Boss Song came in from outside with his arm between his arms, and greeted Shen Sanye with a smile, Shen Sanye nodded: "Come and sit." ”
It is worthy of being contaminated with the atmosphere of literature and ink, and his every move is not quite the same as the people in this village.
In the words of Boss Song, there is a feeling of literary crepe, which is not the same as them at all.
Shen Sanye smiled very kindly, he had a beard and wore a gown like a tree: "I'm eating, have you come to eat so early?" ”
Boss Song put the red paper on Shen Sanye's desk: "Eat, Sanye, you help write a subcouplet and write two blessing characters." "Fortunately, there are a lot of red paper hoards, otherwise there would be no New Year's flavor in this New Year.
Shen Sanye touched his beard and nodded: "You put it on the table, and I'll write it for you." He rolled up his sleeves and picked up the brush, and very pity to dip some ink to write for Boss Song, the ink is too expensive, if it runs out, it will not be used.
I don't know why the two in the back haven't come in yet, Boss Song hurriedly took out the two housebirds wrapped in straw paper from his arms and put them on the table: "Third master, this is the housefinch that I went out to call a few days ago, you just tell others that there is this thing, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to tell people about it." ”
Shen Sanye hurriedly put down the brush: "This can't make you take it back and eat it, this thing is so expensive." ”
Boss Song, who can nibble on two almost every few days, has a slightly red cheek: "Third master, don't see you like this, stay, this is what my father and mother specially explained." "Actually, you can take a few more, there were no good things in previous years, and the third master also wrote to you with a smile, this year there is still something to take two, which is actually a bit less, but if you take more, you are afraid that the ceremony will weigh on people.
The two of them were just right, and after pushing and shoving for a long time, Shen Sanye accepted the house sparrow: "Okay, thank you, I can still open a meat." You can still remember me, send me some. ”
Many people in the village are looking for the third master to write, but there is the kind of old man who comes empty-handed every year, not only does not give the third master anything to eat, but also points to the red paper given by others.
This is called a shameless, that is, the third master has a good temper, and no one cares about them when they change others.
After accepting these two family sparrows, the third master was warm in his heart.
"That kid is here just now, I can't feel sorry when I see that kid is wearing thin clothes, why did my old brother give birth to Shen Dongsheng's unsophisticated child, and his own son is also cruel and cruel like that."
Shen Sanye talked to Boss Song while writing, and when he talked about Shen Hannian, Boss Song was also upset: "Yes, we don't live next door, not only the kid in Hannian, the cold heart is even more miserable, and our family can't listen to the cry of the little doll." ”
The atmosphere in the room was a little depressing, but fortunately, the daughter-in-law of the Niu family and the daughter-in-law of Lao Zheng came in and pulled some other knocks.
Lao Zheng's daughter-in-law brought two dumplings to Shen Sanye, and the daughter-in-law of the Niu family brought a large cake.
Shen Sanye put the house finches brought by Boss Song in the cabinet, for fear of being seen, and put other people's things next to the table, and also wanted to remind those who came over with empty gloves and white wolves, others will take them, and you don't play those careful thoughts and don't take them.
The words on the red paper dried, and Boss Song carefully rolled it up and hugged it in his arms and left: "Third master, I'll go back first when the eldest sister of the Zheng family and the sister of the Niu family come to my house one day." ”
"Well, you can go back first."
On the way home, Boss Song saw many people walking towards Shen Sanye's house, carrying red paper in his pocket, and he was hungry, and Boss Song saw that he was ready to come back, and stretched out his hand and pointed at him with a smile: "You kid is enough to be a ghost, and you will run away without eating in the morning." ”
"What, what nonsense, my family has an early meal." Boss Song chatted with the man for a few idle words, and couldn't bear the cold and hurriedly went home.
This little year has made every family very happy.
Song Ye took out the red lantern from the warehouse and hung it under the eaves, this red lantern is a treasure of the Song family, and it will be taken out and hung every New Year.
"It's back, Boss."
Grandma Song came out of the warehouse with a dustpan, kicked the door of the warehouse with her foot, and in the dustpan was placed Song Changning's dried medicinal herbs, she thought that this is not easy to cough and fever in winter, prepare it first, and put some food in each room.
"Mother, what are you doing here?"
"Take out the herbs and divide them." Grandma Song opened the door curtain and went in, Boss Song followed, except for this blessing word, the words on the couplet were not recognized by others, Boss Song called Song Changning to hand it over to everyone to read, Song Changning finished reading, Boss Song clapped his hands: "That's right, that's what the third master said, I didn't expect my family Ning to know so many words." ”
Boss Song never doubted whether Song Changning could read or write, but he didn't know how many words Song Changning knew, so it seems that this kid is powerful.
She still recognizes the words written by Xiucai, and what she says is similar to that of the third master.
"That's not what's wrong, our parents would rather be here."
Today, Song Changning and Song Xiaoyu put on their new skirts, and the jujube red on the clothes is particularly New Year's flavor, Song Changning came out of Song's milk house and stood under the eaves with Song Xiaoyu to look at the red lanterns: "Sister-in-law, this lamp is so beautiful." ”
Song Xiaoyu clapped her hands and laughed, Song Changning couldn't help but reach out and pinch Song Xiaoyu's face when she saw her soft appearance: "Yu's cheeks are so soft, has Xiaoyu ever eaten a rock sugar gourd?" ”
Song Xiaoyu was pinched off by Song Changning, and his heart was beautiful, covering his little face and lowering his head shyly: "What is that?" ”
"The rock sugar gourd is like this red lantern strung together, wrapped in sugar, red and sweet."
Song Changning bought her a sugar gourd after going to the town, she had eaten it, that thing was expensive, and she needed a copper plate for a string, and she was reluctant to eat it even if she had silver behind her.
But she thought about it this time, if she has silver in the future, she will enjoy it, this thing will not be brought to life and death, what are you doing if you don't eat it, and give it to others?
But a few words hooked Song Xiaoyu's saliva: "Little sister-in-law, Xiaoyu really wants to eat." ”
"When we can go out in the future, I'll buy it for Xiaoyu, okay?" Song Changning hugged Song Xiaoyu and whispered to her, Song Xiaoyu looked at Song Changning longingly, and held Song Changning's slender fingers tightly with his little hands: "Sister-in-law, let's pull the hook." ”
"Okay, pull the hook."
"Don't cheat if you hang yourself on a hook for a hundred years."
At the end of the hook, Song Xiaoyu threw herself into Song Changning's arms and coquettishly behaved, and now she relies more on Song Changning than Qian Guifeng: "Sister-in-law, why can't this lamp be seen by Xiaoyu every day?" ”
Song Changning rubbed Song Xiaoyu's chubby face, he has meat to eat every day recently, and he raised Song Xiaoyu white and fat: "Because the lantern is hung every day, it is not red, but you can let Xiaoyu see it once a year, and you can still see it next year, and you can also see it the year after tomorrow." ”
It's just that Song Changning didn't expect that Song Xiaoyu would not be able to see it in the coming year...
Song Xiangming didn't know when she stood by and watched them talk: "This guy is tired of the two of you, I don't know if he deliberately showed it to me." "Song Changning likes to do these useless things.
Hearing Song Xiangming's voice, Song Changning pulled Song Xiaoyu back to the house, she didn't want to quarrel with Song Xiangming during the New Year.
In the kitchen, the potato rice has been cooked, and there are not only potatoes in the potato rice, but also shredded pheasant, stewed together and sticky and fragrant, Qian Guifeng picked up a small piece of wood and threw it into the stove, and he didn't know how many times he swallowed his saliva.
The radish rabbit meat stewed in the big pot next door, the aroma of the meat mixed with the aroma of radish seems to suck people into this pot, the kitchen is quiet, and the three daughters-in-law are waiting for the meal to be good.
"It's so fragrant, why is it not good?"
Liu Mudan couldn't help but ask, Qin Hong's eyes looked at the hot air coming out of the lid of the pot: "It is estimated that it will be fine soon." ”
Waiting until noon, Qian Guifeng lifted the lid of the pot: "Put it on the table to eat." ”
Qin Hong hurriedly ran out to set the table, Liu Peony was busy bringing the plates, Qian Guifeng put the plates, the water and heat filled the entire kitchen, Qian Guifeng and Liu Peony were very close, and they couldn't find each other.
Although opening the door can dissipate the air, I am afraid that the smell will be dispersed, and if a good nose escapes the smell and asks what to eat.
"It's so fragrant, we cooked a lot today, and we can let go of our belly and eat it." Liu Mudan took the hot plate, and was not afraid of the hot hand and walked quickly to the old house with the plate.
