Chapter 165: Dragon Boat Festival

"Then you can't lie in the ditch, you look at him as a white little offspring, and he is wearing a dress that should not be low, you just let him kneel in the ditch with mud, and you can't say it." The hands of the fifth aunt were distressed, but she couldn't throw them on the ground at will, because there were people cleaning them outside the village every day, and Hao Hao and Gao Shaoan paid them to hire them.

"It's okay, he's honest, and he's been entertained with good food and drink recently, and he's gained a lot of weight, so I let him move to lose weight. Fifth aunt, I see that you were angry just now, who provoked you? Hao Hao glanced at her pouting husband with a smile, then covered her mouth and snickered, and then suddenly remembered the expression of the fifth aunt when she came, which was obviously angry, but this time she returned to normal, with a smile on her face.

"I remember your reminder, I just saw Xu Yan at the entrance of the village, just asked, and then saw her dressed in black, I felt a little funny inexplicably, so I secretly laughed, guess what?" Hao Hao didn't remind it, but as soon as she reminded her, Aunt Xu, who had just returned to normal, found an outlet, she didn't care about having a young and good-looking offspring, anyway, she was also so old, and she was not afraid of losing face, so she moved a few more steps, trying to get closer to Hao Hao, her round face and facial muscles were tense.

"Did she scold you?" Hao Hao asked tentatively.

"Your baby guessed accurately, she opened her mouth and scolded, saying that I was as fat as a pig, and then walked away." The fifth aunt looked down at her white and fat hands, although her belly was smaller than before, but where the tonnage was, it was impossible to reduce it all at once, so when she saw the little thumb that was squeezed out of the ring by the ring, she shrank embarrassedly, and then said indignantly.

"She really scolded you, and it really didn't go well." Hao Hao smiled helplessly, Xu Yan has experienced things that ordinary people can't imagine, and the gap between the two is too big, so the psychology will be a little unbalanced, and it will slowly become distorted.

"You mean Xu Yan is not doing well at her mother-in-law's house?" The fifth aunt is really the originator of gossip in the village, and she was still indignant just now, but she will become eager to try again, and such a big change makes Hao Hao even more helpless.

"Aunt Wu's current question is whether you are angry or not, not whether Xu Yan is doing well or not, even if she is not doing well, it is her business, she has to find a way to reverse the current predicament, instead of blindly accommodating others, or venting her emotional dissatisfaction to others. So for now, don't be angry, and the rest will be talked about later. Hao Hao is not interested in Xu Yan's affairs, but she is also a woman, and she will inevitably have some sympathy for her experience, as for the other sorry, she is not a saint and has no time to take care of it.

"You're right, it doesn't matter to me whether Xu Yan is doing well now, I'm just afraid that girl will do something out of the ordinary." The fifth aunt has lived in Xiahe Village for decades, and she has a thorough understanding of the people in the village, Xu Youcai used to rely on her good family background, and she was always superior, I thought that this situation would last for a long time, but I didn't expect that Hao Hao, who was not optimistic about everyone, became a dark horse, and belonged to the kind of dark horse with divine assistance, regardless of her age, just looking at her life, and background, no one dared to offend, and Xu Youcai was pressed to death, and everyone was unhappy because of some small contradictions a few days ago. So this contradiction is even greater, when Xu Yan goes home today, she thinks it won't be so simple. Then he reminded.

"I know, Aunt Five, I see that you have been doing well these days, you have permed your hair and changed into new clothes, you are really good-looking." Hao Hao understood what the fifth aunt meant, with Xu Yan's small belly and chicken intestines, she was not a good stubble, but she Hao Hao was not easy to mess with, last time she was hindered by a village Plus she has no support, but now she not only has helpers, but also many small animals, and when these people are resting, they are staring.

It can be said that it can achieve all-round supervision and supervision.

"You roar, your mouth is so sweet, have you eaten honey?" The fifth aunt laughed and trembled, no woman doesn't like to be praised, the fifth aunt knows that she is not good-looking, but she is still praised flutteringly.

"What I said is true, you wore a rose-red dress today, your skin is already white, this color makes you look even better, the fifth aunt must continue to work hard." Hao Hao clenched his fists and waved at the fifth aunt, smiling and cheering.

"Hahaha" The fifth aunt was amused by Hao Hao's small movements, and the anger just now disappeared in an instant. Then a pair of small eyes rolled around, thinking about how to make themselves more beautiful.

Next, everything went well.

Now the family doesn't need to do it at all, since Sun Jian came down from the mining area, he talked to Hao Hao that day, and then went back to the house, and after talking to his daughter-in-law, he brought himself with a big bag and a small bag, and then performed his own duties, but when he first came, he lacked a helper. And this helper is the little chef he wants, but unfortunately the people in the village are busy, and those who come with him can only eat and can't cook, which is sad for him.

Time passed quietly, and it was noon in a flash.

Hao Hao and Tian Runsheng made an appointment to go home, and as soon as they entered the door, they smelled a strong fragrance, the two looked at each other and smiled, and then held hands and threw the tender grass back into the cattle pen.

"You put these ears of wheat here first, I will sit and clean up, and you will put the rest in the yard to remove the moisture, if you eat it directly, you are afraid that the cow will have diarrhea, and others will be easy to get sick after eating it." Hao Hao took advantage of the situation to hold Tian Runsheng's hand, and when the two entered the courtyard, they saw that it was crowded with people, each stretching their necks, holding bowls in their hands and waiting to be fed. Hao Hao agreed with Sun Jian's approach, but he didn't expect him to come up with such a good idea, this idea can avoid chaos, and secondly, to exercise everyone's body, killing two birds with one stone.

When everyone saw that Hao Hao and his wife were back, they all turned around and greeted them with a smile.

"I'm back."

"yes, you're going to get ready to line up for dinner." Hao Hao smiled in return, moving his legs that were a little swollen and walked very slowly, I don't know what happened in the past few days, the whole person was swollen, and the small arms and legs that used to be swollen have become swollen at the moment, although the stomach has not changed much, but she understands that it is late edema, but it does not affect her beauty.

"Well, after Master Sun came, he implemented this system, which is quite good." Wang Aiguo was the first to speak, although it was occasionally a little crowded, but this feeling was good, not to mention that the food cooked by others was also exceptionally delicious.

"That's the same, eat more if it's delicious, it's the Dragon Boat Festival in a few days, I don't know if there are any good activities in the village." Hao Hao helped the guard to slide down with difficulty, but before she fell off the bench, she eased up a little, she was very interested in the Dragon Boat Festival here, she remembered that she had the Dragon Boat Festival when she was a child, and she was prepared a few days in advance, and the adults in the village cut down a book in advance, and then designated a family to carry firewood and some dry branches from their wheat fields, and all kinds of materials were piled up into a high mountain. Then on the morning of the Dragon Boat Festival, regardless of men, women and children, the important livestock of the family will go to the open space in front of the temple fair to see the burning mountains.

Presumably it is to pray for a good omen this year.

After the temple fair, they will wear a purse, eat flower buns and boiled eggs, and then go to visit relatives.

The happiest time in Hao Hao's life was childhood, although it was a little heavy, boring, and poor, but she was simply happy.

But now I have a lot of thoughts that I shouldn't have, so I'm a lot sadder.

"Speaking of the Dragon Boat Festival, I have to say, take Yanjing as an example, on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, you want to worship your ancestors? Eat zongzi, hanging calamus, cherries, bucket herbs, etc., but these can grow down. Wang Aiguo is an expert in folklore, and he always has a lot to say when it comes to the Dragon Boat Festival.

"Sir, tell us about Yanjing's ancestor worship, I haven't heard of it yet." Hao Hao held his chin and looked at Wang Aiguo in the crowd, since he came, he has been much more energetic, and his complexion is more healthy and ruddy, probably because he eats well and sleeps well.

"Okay, I didn't tell you." Wang Aiguo coughed heavily, then made a gesture, and under everyone's gaze, began the popularization of Dragon Boat Festival knowledge.

The origin of the Dragon Boat Festival is related to many cultural celebrities, most of these cultural celebrities have two common characteristics, one is that they are loyal and filial people, and the other is related to "water": Qu Yuan threw himself into the river, Wu Zixu was thrown into the water after his death, and Cao E was thrown into the river to save his father. The most widespread and influential among the people is to commemorate the great patriotic poet Chu Dafu Qu Yuan. In order to commend Qu Yuan's loyalty, the Song Dynasty posthumously awarded him the title of Loyal Martyr, and officially held the Dragon Boat Festival on May 5. The literati in Beijing have the tradition of offering incense to the Erzha Sanzhong Temple during the Dragon Boat Festival, and Zhuge Liang, Yue Fei and Wen Tianxiang are enshrined in the temple. The ancestral hall is spacious, and there is a pavilion behind the ancestral hall that is facing the Tonghui River. This is the origin of Hao Hao's memory of the Dragon Boat Festival sacrifice in Beijing, but today I heard Wang Aiguo say that the Chinese Dragon Boat Festival ancestor worship is not to commemorate those celebrities, but to commemorate and remember the Communist fighters who have made great contributions to China, such as the soldiers of the Red First Division who did not survive in the Long March, as well as the people who died in the major battles, Hao Hao listened carefully, and unconsciously many Red Army soldiers who paid their lives for the construction of New China appeared in his mind. How distressing and regrettable. Hao Hao was not the only one present who was sad and cried, the rest of the people were the same, even Wang Aiguo was in tears, and his voice trembled a little.

For a while, the courtyard was quiet, only the summer breeze whistling in his ears, Hao Hao looked at the ears of wheat on the table in front of him, and gradually fell into deep thought.

Because this topic is not simply sad, but a vibration of the soul, and this kind of stirring thing can best break through people's mental defenses.
