In the cold and snow, the whole village can be seen with high red lanterns in front of each house, and when night comes, firecrackers crackle one after another.

During the Chinese New Year, not only the children were happy, but Zhang Guoqing was also very happy.

As the children grow up and work in the future, the next time the family of five returns to their hometown for the New Year, this opportunity is rare, and he vows to make this Chinese New Year's Eve hot.

When Zhou Jiao finished distributing the New Year's money to the little radish heads, Zhang Guoqing didn't care about the absence of any nephews and daughters-in-law, so he pulled his daughter-in-law and called his sons to run home.

Before leaving, he didn't forget to shout: "Mother, you wait to come out with my father, your old son will set off fireworks for you." ”

Zhang's mother smiled from ear to ear, looked at the old son who ran away, and smiled disgustedly: "This child is really, he is about to be a father-in-law, and he loves to play so much." ”

As she spoke, she glanced at her grandson who ran out of the door with the child in her arms, and looked at the granddaughters-in-law present, "You all go to play, come back and clean up together." ”

Zhang Guoqing couldn't take care of them, so he ran home with his sons at this moment, plus Xiao Zhu and Xiao Liu, and began to move firecrackers and fireworks out of the open space outside the yard.

After moving, Zhang Guoqing lit the incense and stuffed it to Zhou Jiao, and then held her hand, "Don't be afraid, light that thread, and I'll run back with you." ”

Zhou Jiao wanted to say that she was not so timid, but when she looked at him with a smiling face, she still nodded with a smile. Her man thinks she is delicate, then she is weak!

When Wuyi heard this, he hurried up, "Dad, you are old, or I'll pick up my mother and run." ”

Ping'an and Brother Liuyi immediately burst into laughter when they heard it.

"Stinky boy!" Zhang Guoqing scolded with a smile and kicked him in the leg, "The skin is thick!" ”

"A gentleman doesn't move his hands." Wuyi flashed to the side and ran to the side of his brothers, "Dad, do you want your sons to cheer you up?" ”

Ping An patted him on the head, "Okay." A lot of people came. ”

Liuyi shook his head with a smile, and handed the camera in his hand to his younger brother, "Take a few more pictures for grandpa and bring them back." ”

"No problem." Wuyi took the camera, "You said that grandma and grandpa spent the New Year in a foreign country?" Could it be that you're thinking about us too? ”

"You're going to miss us."

"That's why I don't like to study abroad, but it's a pity ......"

Liuyi shook his head slightly, "Let's accompany our parents to celebrate the New Year first." "As for the future arrangement, that is a matter for the future, and there is no need to say it in my hometown.

The three brothers smiled at each other, then looked at their parents.

Early in the morning of the first day of the first lunar month, the children who enjoyed last night's fireworks ran to knock on the door of Zhang Guoqing Courtyard before dawn.

They know that Uncle Zhang/Fifth Master Zhang's house, on top of the big snowballs piled up in the yard, the red rock sugar gourds are theirs.

The three brothers of Ping'an, who finished their workout in the morning, faced the children who shouted Happy New Year and other congratulatory messages one by one, and gave one to one.

In the living room, Zhou Jiao also followed the customs of the village to put several baskets of fried goods and candies, dried fruits, melon seeds and "mixed mixes" on the kang.

Naturally, there is also a large plate of frozen pears and frozen persimmons on the ground.

The eldest daughter of the Xizi family, Nannan, leaned comfortably on the kang and looked at the little friends who took away the gifts, "Third grandma, are you going to come back next year?" ”

Zhou Jiao tugged at the little girl's braids, "If we don't come back for the New Year in the future, we will send you delicious food." ”

"I'm nine years old, I'm not a kid, and I don't care about food. If you and the third grandfather don't come back for the New Year, can you let me come back with Uncle Ping'an? ”

"You have to ask them, they make their own decisions."

"Third grandma, you are so good, I want to make my own decisions, but my mother doesn't agree. My dad said I had to grow up and maybe I could be the master of my own house. ”

Zhou Jiao pinched her little face with a smile, why is she so cute!

After many years, on the night of the first day of the first lunar month, the bonfire was burning, and the drying field in Zhangjia Village was filled with a rich aroma of meat, as well as bursts of laughter.

The three brothers Zhang Guofu, Zhang Lao Er and Zhang Guoqing, who got together, looked at the next two generations of the old Zhang family and sighed again.

At that time, the three brothers still lived together in the old home......

At that time, Ping An had just been born......

Back then, they were young......

Fortunately, everything is changing, and after twenty years, the relationship between the three brothers is still the same, and the father and mother in the distance are still laughing.

After a leisurely first day of the first lunar month, the second day of the new year can already start the New Year's greetings. Early in the morning, a family of five accompanied Zhang's mother and two elders to the two uncles' houses to pay New Year's greetings.

After the banquet when the old Aunt Zhang's aunt and grandmother returned to their parents' house, the family of five once again brought a small bag and went to the provincial capital to greet Zhao Chuanguang and them for the New Year.

After not accompanying Huang Huimin to have a good chat for so many years, Zhou Jiao naturally had to stay for a few more days, but she still couldn't escape from going to the elders to pay New Year's greetings.

Mr. Zhao and his wife are now old, and their health is not as good as day by day, compared to the old wife who is already so confused that he can't recognize the younger generations, the old man is still very happy about the arrival of their family.

It's just this goodbye, I don't know if it will be separated when we see each other next time?

Looking at the sad Zhao Chuanguang, Zhou Jiao could only comfort her godfather a few words, and she didn't know what to do with the rest, and she couldn't say that she was much better than her godmother.

At least his father-in-law, Mr. Huang, and the old man and the old couple took a big step to meet Marx, right?

She estimated that as soon as she said this, her godfather would knock her to death!

When Zhao Dashan paid New Year's greetings the next day, after so many years, Zhou Jiao saw him again, and her heart was even more emotional.

Compared with Zhao Chuanguang, who has always been a soldier, Zhao Dashan, who is over sixty years old, is also a lot older. is no longer the handsome uncle she remembers.

The personality hasn't changed.

Also, the work and family are happy, and the carefree days can't take away his cheerful personality. Only the passage of time cannot stop aging.

Similarly, Cheng Hongli also has white hair, according to her, she still dyes her hair, otherwise she will be white and look ugly next to her wife.

Hearing her words, Zhou Jiao was secretly glad that her mother Miao Lishan had lived younger and younger after so many years of careful service, at least without white hair.

Otherwise, standing next to her handsome Lao Tzu, how bad it would be!

The years are really unforgiving.

When they get together, they talk and laugh, talk and laugh, and they are happy, but they can't resist Zhou Jiao's inner melancholy. Her mother is not yet sixty, but her father is over sixty, and the days with her are getting less and less every day.

Zhang Guoqing knew that she was thinking hard, and deliberately took her out to the street to relax the day before returning to Zhangjia Village.

In the Northeast in the first month, the most important thing is the festive atmosphere.

Everyone seems to be borrowing the festival to drive away the cold, and people are excited to toss with joy. What a big Yanggeer, stepping on stilts, two people turning, how to be happy and how to come.
