The next day, Jiang Nan and the others were busy killing chickens and ducks, because there were too many people to do it until the Chinese New Year's Eve.

Xiao Jingheng accompanied Xiao Zhengde to the Xiao family's old house, Xiao Jingwen didn't go, but Xiao Zhengde went to sit down, and these juniors went to pay New Year's greetings after the year.

Qi Lin and Chang Huan also came over to help, Yuanyuan watched curiously, running around, Jiang Xiaowu accompanied Luo Yuanpei and Gu Xiancheng to watch and gossip, and the courtyard was very lively.

Jiang Nan is very happy, last year was at Yang Zhengang's house, and this year in his own house is more lively than last year.

In the afternoon, Hua Muchen moved a few charcoal stoves, there are too many things to burn during the New Year, and a few more stoves will burn quickly.

I also bought firecrackers, couplets, etc., which are indispensable for the New Year.

Finally reached the Chinese New Year's Eve.

Everyone got up early in the morning.

Aunt Yang helped Jiang Nan chop the killed chickens and ducks, and stewed them later.

Yang Lifeng helped chop the pig's feet, and he had a lot of strength.

Jiang Xiaowu put a pile of firewood by the stove and waited for it to burn for a while, and Chang Huan helped wash a large stack of pots and bowls to be ready for a while.

Jiang Nan began to knead the dough and roll out the dumpling skin, and Hua Muchen helped chop the meat filling.

After a while, Ji Xianlin and Qi Lin also came over.

"It's so lively!" Ji Xianlin said with a smile, he hadn't had such a lively year for a long time.

Although there are several apprentices, several of them have their own families, and every year he and Qi Lin live together, and they are deserted.

With Jiang Nan this year, you can also have a lively year.

"Do you want me to help?" Qi Lin asked.

"Senior brother, you can help me put up all the couplets everywhere!" Jiang Nan said with a smile: "It's mainly the gate, and the biggest one!" ”

"Great!" Qi Lin responded cheerfully, his temperament likes to be lively, and he is happiest with so many people this year.

Qi Lin took out the couplet and took out the largest one, which looked like an auspicious couplet. On one side is the beautiful scenery of Sanyang Kaitai everywhere, and on the other side is the five blessings of the five grains.

"Which is the upper link and which is the lower link?" Qi Lin asked.

"You've read all this book in vain, and you don't know what the upper and lower links are?" Ji Xianlin glanced at him.

Qi Lin scratched his head, "I won't either!" ”

Jiang Nan poked his head out with a smile, "Use the flat method to distinguish, the last word in the upper link is generally the sound of the voice, and the last word in the lower link is the sound of the voice." ”

Qi Lin read it again, "That Sanyang Kaitai is everywhere Sanchun beautiful scenery is the upper link, this is the lower link!" ”

"Is it on the left or right?" Qi Lin asked again.

Ji Xianlin simply didn't have an eye, did he learn Western medicine and lose all the things of his ancestors?

"Generally the upper link is on the right and the lower link is on the left. However, some words are written from left to right according to the current custom, so the upper link is on the left, and the lower link is on the right. If you look at the characters in the horizontal batch, is it from left to right or right to left? Jiang Nan said.

"I'll see." Qi Lin picked up the horizontal batch and looked at it, "It's written from right to left." ”

"Then the upper link is on the right, and the lower link is on the left!" Jiang Nan said with a smile.

Ji Xianlin walked up to Gu Xiancheng and them, "Let you see the smile!" ”

"It's understandable that young people nowadays don't understand this!" Luo Yuanpei smiled, "There are a lot of older people, but they don't understand these things if they don't have culture." ”

"General Gu is feeling better?" Ji Xianlin asked.

"It's much better, it's good to see their juniors." Gu Xiancheng nodded.

"I'll help you take another look?" Ji Xianlin asked.

Gu Xiancheng stretched out his wrist, Ji Xianlin took the pulse, and nodded, "It's okay, it's relatively stable, but you still have to pay attention to your diet, eat less meat dishes for the New Year, and don't eat dishes with big oil and salt." ”

"What's wrong with General Gu's health?" Xiao Zhengde and Luo Yuanpei hurriedly asked.

"One side of the kidney was removed." Ji Xianlin said.

"Yo, that's a matter of attention." Xiao Zhengde said, "We are old, and we don't have many good bodies. ”

"Who's to say no, how many of us don't have a wound on our bodies? When you get old, your body will not work. Luo Yuanpei was also emotional.

"Two chiefs, can I help you take a look?" Ji Xianlin said.

"That's trouble!" Xiao Zhengde and Luo Yuanpei nodded.

Ji Xianlin took the pulse of the two, "The hearts of the two are not very good!" ”

"But no, Jiang Nan saved me from an accident before, and I didn't know she was my granddaughter at that time, do you think there is fate?" Xiao Zhengde said with a smile, speaking of Jiang Nan, he was really satisfied.

Luo Yuanpei also nodded, "I also always have a quick-acting heart pill!" ”

"This disease must avoid great joy and sorrow, the mood fluctuates too much, the diet is also less oily, and cardiovascular disease is the most common when people are old!" Ji Xianlin said.

Everyone nodded, looking at the vibrant young people in the courtyard, and they all sighed that they were still young.

Qi Lin posted the couplet of the door and started the second door again, and then Yang Zhengang walked in from the outside, "I'm back!" ”

Jiang Nan was pleasantly surprised, he came back quite early, and when he looked at it, Xiao Jingzhong also followed.

"Big brother!" Jiang Nan shouted.

Xiao Jingzhong saw Xiao Zhengde hurriedly running over, "Grandpa! ”

Seeing several old chiefs, he saluted again, "Good chief!" ”

"Coming back?" Several old men smiled.

Yang Zhengang was stunned for a moment when he saw Gu Xiancheng, although he knew that Jiang Nan would pick him up, but it was still a little unnatural to meet him, and he first gave a military salute to a few old people, "Hello chief!" ”

"Zhengang is back?" Several people laughed.

Yang Zhengang looked at Gu Xiancheng, and then saw Jiang Nan's suggestive eyes, his face was a little stiff, and he still called "Dad".

Gu Xiancheng's eyes turned red suddenly, and he couldn't speak excitedly.

In the kitchen, Yang Lifeng and his wife heard Yang Zhengang's voice and hurriedly came out to look, Yang Zhengang walked over, "Dad, Mom, are you all here?" ”

"Coming back? Let Mom take a look! Aunt Yang hurriedly pulled her son, looked at it from head to toe, and nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, spirited, energetic!" ”

On the side, Luo Yuanpei and Xiao Zhengde were comforting Gu Xiancheng, "It's good to admit it, it's good to admit it!" ”

Yang Lifeng looked over there and whispered to Yang Zhengang: "You went to talk to your father, and he is pitiful now." ”

Yang Zhengang was a little hesitant, he really didn't know what to say, and now there are so many people.

"I'll help Jiang Nan do things!" He said.

Aunt Yang and Yang Lifeng glanced at each other, a little helpless, but relieved, her son gave them peace of mind to his own relatives, and this son was not raised in vain.

But Gu Xiancheng was a little pitiful there, especially when he heard about his lover and children, they were all upset for him.

However, the son can understand that there is a gap in his heart, anyway, there is time for the New Year, as long as he recognizes it, it will be easy to do.

Yang Zhengang washed his hands and went over to help Jiang Nan make dumplings.

"Are you tired, do you want to rest for a while?" Jiang Nan asked.

"I'm not tired of seeing you!" Yang Zhengang said, taking advantage of others' inattention to secretly kiss Jiang Nan's face.

Jiang Nan smiled, and the man's mouth became sweeter and sweeter.
