I answered the phone, and the voice on the other end of the phone was very heavy, saying, "Are you Chen Baxian?" ”

"Well, which one are you? Name? ”

The other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, and said: "Your surname is Yan, nickname Yan Seventeen, our boss's mother may die in the past few days, I want to ask someone to contract all the funeral, there is only one request, I am not afraid of no money, I am afraid that it will not be lively." ”

Listening to this tone, it seemed that he was a rich man, and I asked suspiciously, "How much do you plan to spend on the funeral?" ”

"A million!"

Made, I was stunned, when the eight immortals for such a long time, the rich people who spent more than 100,000 or 200,000 yuan on funerals, I met one or two. Made, a million for a funeral, the first time I encountered it, I was a little short of breath, and without hesitation, I said, "Where?" When? How many people are needed? ”

"I'll contact you then!" The other end of the phone said such a sentence and hung up the phone.

I feel a little inexplicable, I won't be entertained during the New Year, right? I wanted to dial the number again, and I felt that there was no need to deal with strangers in the Chinese New Year's Eve.

At this time, Guo Fatty and Chen Tiannan came over, they have been living in my house during this time, close to the New Year, Guo Fatty Mother's urged a few calls, this goods did not leave my house, until the Chinese New Year's Eve, planning to rush home before the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

As for Chen Tiannan, who is even more sad, his parents have been urging him to go home for a reunion with thirty or forty phone calls a day since he was a child, and he only said one sentence at a time, "One day with her at home, I won't go back." ”

"Brother Jiu!" Guo Fatzi walked up to me, put one hand on my shoulder, and said, "Brother Tian thinks the countryside is too boring, and plans to go back to the county seat with me for the New Year, are you interested in going to my house for the New Year?" ”

I stopped and said, "I'm at home with my parents for the New Year, you two go to the county seat to be honest, don't stay in the Internet café all day long to play legends!" ”

After speaking, I turned my head to look at Chen Tiannan and said, "For the Chinese New Year, parents are looking forward to their children coming home for reunion?" You're really not going back? ”

He nodded and said, "I also want to go home for the New Year, the problem is, that shrew is at my house, and once I go back, I guess I won't be able to come out in this life." ”

I nodded helplessly, and I couldn't say anything, everyone insisted on something different, so I had to say: "Pay attention to safety on the road, and call you two when you have work." ”

"Good Ratcha!" Guo Fatzi and the two of them shouted, left my house shoulder to shoulder, and went back to the county seat.

After they left, I turned around and walked into the kitchen, my mother was sitting on the stove and the fire was cooking, and my father was busy stir-frying. ”

I hummed, sat down beside my mother, and said, "Mother, your legs and feet are still a little inconvenient, let me make a fire, you can go to bed and rest for a while!" When the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is ready, I will call you. ”

Mother took a look, smiled, and said, "Jiu Yanzi, since I moved your grandfather's grave, my legs have gradually recovered, although I am a little lame, it is still no problem to make a fire." ”

I nodded, and sat down on the stove with my mother, who interjected from time to time. Although our family is a little deserted during the New Year, there are more smiling faces than usual. Poor! There is always a way to celebrate the New Year, you can't eat the delicacies of the mountains and seas, just be happy in your heart.

After preparing the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, it was already approaching dusk. According to the custom of our side, when it is late, it is necessary to paste the Spring Festival couplets, and then each family brings three animals to the hall house for the ancestors, and then discusses the distribution of some things in the village next year, such as who will the pond be contracted to this year, and which family will it be the turn of the village chief?

My mother's legs and feet are inconvenient, and the work of pasting Spring Festival couplets is done by me and my father, who stands at the door with rice cereal, and I dip rice cereal in the door.

Compared with the desertion of my house, the other families in the village are very lively, and the stereo of every household floats out of Zhuo Yiting's New Year's song, no matter how many years have passed, this New Year's song will always be those songs, although I am a little tired of listening, but I am still quite happy to listen to it, because this is the unique music of the New Year! I don't usually get this ear blessing.

"Nine guys, paste the Spring Festival couplet?" Lao Wang walked out of the room with a few couplets in his hand, followed by a girl, I forgot what the big name was, I knew that the nickname was Erya, two or three years older than me, and he was quite handsome.

"Lao Wang, last time you said that you introduced your daughter to me as a daughter-in-law, why did the second girl come back for so long, and you didn't have a sound!" I smiled and quipped at Wang.

"Jiu Yanzi, don't think about it, Lao Wang's daughter is a famous college student, where can I see you as a coffin bearer!" Father laughed from the side.

"Lao Chen! You're wrong! If your nine sons can take a fancy to my second girl, and hold an engagement banquet for them tomorrow, what do you think! Lao Wang put down the Spring Festival couplets in his hand and walked over, took out a pack of cigarettes, and handed it to my father and me.

I took the cigarette and glanced at the cigarette box, good guy, Furong King, usually Lao Wang is 5 yuan Baisha, and the grade of smoking during the New Year is higher. I lit a cigarette, took a few deep breaths, and quipped at Erya: "Sister Erya, your father promised you to me, do you have any ideas?" ”

"I was raised by my father, and I listened to my father's arrangement for major marriage events!" The second girl shyly buried her head very low.

She didn't mean that she liked me, but that Erya, a girl who is well-known for her filial piety in our village, has never disobeyed Lao Wang since she was a child, and she listens to what Lao Wang says. Therefore, Lao Wang also loves these two girls very much, and usually let his daughter eat whatever is delicious, and then give the rest to his son to eat.

On this matter, Lao Wang and his daughter-in-law quarreled a lot, her daughter-in-law always scolded like this, you are a one-eyed dragon, don't be patriarchal, you are actually patriarchal, you actually prefer women over men, and I don't know which grave of your ancestors was buried in the wrong place, and you were beaten down.

Don't really say it, Erya's words blocked me speechless, which made Lao Wang laugh a few times on the side, and then, a few of us chatted for a while, and several times Lao Wang wanted to say something else, but the words came to his mouth and swallowed again.

Seeing Lao Wang's expression, I knew that he might have something to do with me, and this matter may be related to the funeral, if it is normal, he must have opened his mouth to say it, but now it is the New Year, such words as funerals, it is unlucky to say it, and it will also cause my father to be disgusted.

I gave Lao Wang a look, meaning to go to his house and say, he nodded, and said to his father, "Lao Chen! My family bought a bottle of good wine, anyway, there is still some time to go to the village for the ancestors, I will go with Jiu Yanzi to take a few sips of wine, and he will bring you some back. ”
