Early in the morning of the second day, Liu Yihao led Liu Yiyang to the town to pay respects.

At home, the second sister led the third sister to the mountain to collect firewood.

This year, the village picked up cicadas and molted their shells, plus the Liu family built a house, and the fields had to harvest crops, the Liu family did not pick up much firewood, fortunately a lot of corn stalks and corn cobs were collected from the ground, these burned first, temporarily improvised, while it was not yet cold, pick up more firewood, otherwise it will be cold, and when the snow closes the mountain, there will be no firewood to pick up.

The town is full of incense.

After the two Liu Yihao brothers knocked on the door, they didn't expect that it was Zhang Xin who opened the door.

"Yihao is you! You ....., but I haven't seen your brother and sister for a while, what have you been busy with lately? ”。 After Zhang Xin opened the door, he saw that it was Liu Yihao, first he was full of joy, and then, Zhang Xin first looked behind Liu Yihao, and after seeing that Liu Yihao did not see the person he was thinking of, Zhang Xin suddenly fell down.

"Brother Xin, my family has been busy building a house recently? After the house is built, it's the autumn harvest again, and the crops in the field should be harvested. ”。 Liu Yihao said, handing the invitation he had prepared earlier to Zhang Xin.

"Your family has built a house, why don't you ask me to help ......, Cheng, I'll give this invitation to my father later, and in three days, my father and I will definitely go to your house to visit and chatter." Zhang Xin first opened the invitation and took a look, and then, Zhang Xin didn't know what he thought, and said with a smile on his face.

"I still have an invitation here for Brother Huzi, why didn't I see Brother Huzi open the door today, where did Brother Huzi go." Liu Yihao raised the other invitation card in his hand and scratched his head.

"Huzi has been home from vacation for a few days, and he has been busy with the family's fields, hey, didn't Huzi tell you? Huzi is also a villager in Shangou Village, your village? ”。

"Isn't that really? Maybe Brother Huzi forgot, Brother Xin, let's talk about it here for the time being today, how many other places will I go to send invitations? In three days' time, welcome to the city." Liu Yihao said, and after arching his hand to Zhang Xin, he left with Liu Yiyang.

After Liu Yihao sent the invitation to the Huang shopkeeper of the Splendid Cloth Store and the old man of Derentang, they responded one by one, and three days later, they must go to Liu's house to nag one or two.

When the two Liu Yihao brothers returned to the village, they bought a few catties of pork, a pig's trotter, and several catties of fine rice, and bought some star anise, fennel, bay leaves, cinnamon and other spices by the way.

There are not many of these things, but they cost nearly five yuan, which made Liu Yiyang, who was watching from the sidelines, feel distressed, but these things were bought by the eldest sister to her fifth brother, and the seventh brother was just distressed about the money, but he didn't ask much and say anything.

When returning to the village, Liu Yihao passed by the door of Wang's house, and Liu Yihao paused and said to Liu Yiyang, "Seventh brother, you take these things back first, I have something to do to go to Uncle Wang's house."

"Yes, fifth brother, I'm afraid I'm going to have lunch now, don't delay too long, let's wait for you to come back for dinner?"

"Well, the fifth brother knows, is our seventh brother really sensible?" Liu Yihao thought of what the eldest sister said, let the seventh brother read to the private school, and seeing that the seventh brother was well-behaved and sensible, Liu Yihao touched Liu Yiyang's head.

After Liu Yihao saw the seventh brother go away, he walked to Wang's house.

"Yihao, why are you here, it's time for lunch, I'll stay here to eat today, and my aunt will go cook for you." Aunt Wang's family was also grinding cornmeal in the compound, and when Aunt Wang saw Liu Yihao coming, she hurriedly said.

"Auntie, you are resting, I just want to inquire about something for you?" Liu Yihao pulled Aunt Wang and said.

"What's the matter? Yihao, you said come and tell your aunt to see if your aunt knows? ”。

"Is there a young man named Wang Hu in our village, who looks like he is about fifteen or sixteen years old?"

"Do you have to let my aunt think about this?"

"Mother, what Brother Yihao wants to inquire, isn't it Brother Huzi of Aunt Zhou's family?" At this time, the second dog said.

"It's Xiaoying's tiger! Alas! Their family is also good enough, Huzi's family has a sick grandmother, dad from the town to work, something happened, the leg was broken, can't do heavy work, not to mention, but also from time to time to take a decoction to raise, Huzi has a ten-year-old brother and a twelve-year-old sister under the ground, the family, all rely on Xiaoying to support, Huzi is less than twelve years old, he went to the town to work in the restaurant to fill the family, Xiaoying is also a good person, Yihao, you inquire about Huzi's family, what is this for? ”。

"It's okay, I just asked casually." Subsequently, Liu Yihao nagged in Wang's house for a while.

After inquiring about the route of Wang Hu's house again, he left Wang's house and went home.

"What's the matter, I have something on my mind, I'll talk about other things after dinner, don't let grandma and my mother wait for a long time." Liu Yiyu, who was waiting for Liu Yihao to go home at the door, saw Liu Yihao thinking about something, and wanted to say something on his face, Liu Yiyu waved his hand.

After Liu Yihao finished eating, Liu Yihao couldn't wait to pull Liu Yiyu aside and told Liu Yiyu about Huzi's family.

"Well, I know about this, we don't care about the situation of Huzi's family, Huzi has also helped our family, if Huzi's family is not happy, our family will also help, later, you go to Huzi's house as usual to send invitations, whether they come or not is their business, whether they send it or not is our business."

"Well, the fifth brother knows, so let's go."

"Big sister, what did you sister and brother say? It's so mysterious, three days later, can you think of what kind of dishes to prepare for your guests? ”。 Liu Li was discussing with Liu Zhang's and the second sister about what dishes to prepare to entertain the guests after three days, and after Liu Li didn't see the eldest sister, he saw the eldest sister and Wulang talking mysteriously on the side, and Liu Li hurriedly beckoned the two of them to come over.

"Well, you go to Huzi's house to place an invitation first, and my mother has me here?"

"Eldest sister, Gorou just finished eating, where is this going?" After Liu Li saw Liu Yihao leaving, he asked Liu Yiyu a little strangely.

"Mother, didn't the eldest sister tell you about Wang Hu, who works in Xiangmanlou in the town? This is a coincidence, this Wang Hu is actually from our village? The fifth brother is going to Huzi's house to deliver invitations."

"What a coincidence?" Liu Zhang said.

After the third sister heard that Wang Hu was from Shangou Village, the third sister was overjoyed.

"This is not true, the third sister can also go home often in the future?" Liu Yiyu saw that the third sister had a happy look on her face, and said with a smile.

"Eldest sister, you know how to bully the third sister." The third sister stomped her feet and said with a flushed face.
