After Zhou Jiao forced Zhang Guoqing to finish eating, she immediately went to sleep and rested, and went out with the child in her arms. Standing at the gate, looking at the old mansion not far away, she was a little embarrassed to go over - it was a shame just now.

After waiting for a while, she saw Zhang's mother coming, and she was overjoyed and beckoned.

Facing Zhang's mother's ridiculous eyes, Zhou Jiao hurriedly pulled her to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Zhou Jiao opened her eyes wide, leaning on her arms safely, and the mother and son stared at Zhang's mother, waiting for her to speak.

Mother Zhang touched her grandson's head, and the expressions of the two women were really similar. She smiled: "You didn't ask Xiao Wu? It will depend on whether he dares to tell you the truth? ”

"I think he's too tired, let him sleep first. Mother, he won't be in danger to save others, right? Was it an internal injury? ”

Mother Zhang hurriedly pulled her, "Don't worry. He's fine! Your father said that it was none of Xiao Wu's business, and he had to follow Old Man Wang and them together. Do you see the clothes on him? It's all caught by wolves. Luckily he wasn't hurt, or it would have been up to me to clean him up. ”

Zhou Jiao breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this.

"A good set of clothes was just scrapped by him. It's a pity! ”|

Zhou Jiaomin smiled. Then she frowned, thinking that although the clothes were trivial, what if she accidentally got hurt? You'll have to wait until he's rested before punishing him.

"Do you know how many wolves they killed this time? Your father said there were more than 200 heads. Primary 5 has at least 20 heads per person. That's right. Divide the things of the small five, and your father asked your Uncle Dashan to take them back to the county seat. Xiao Wu got off the mountain, didn't say a word, and ran home, your father was so frightened that he ran all the way back with him, and now he can't get up while lying on the kang. ”

"Is Daddy alright?"

"It's okay, I'm tired. The two of them, father and son, slept and waited for a meeting in better spirits than us. Your father said that the village must organize to go up the mountain in the next two days, so that you don't rush back to the county seat and take this opportunity to save more things. ”

Zhou Jiao nodded helplessly. There is no shortage of food at home, but she doesn't want Zhang Guoqing to go up the mountain again. Who knows if there are wolves in such a big green mountain.

Then Zhang's mother talked about the number of injuries this time and what she had gained.

Zhou Jiao listened absentmindedly. It has nothing to do with other people's injuries, she doesn't know anyone, she doesn't bother to pay attention. In her heart, she was worried about the pig-killing dishes in the village, and she couldn't cook the taste.

When it came to the meal, Zhou Jiao was reluctant to go to the cafeteria anymore and sent Zhang's mother away. After she finished dinner with the child, closed the door, and the mother quietly returned to the living room.

Zhang Guoqing woke up again, lying on the kang and listening to Zhou Jiao whispering fables outside, and his son laughed in a low voice. I looked at the time and saw that it was already late at night.

He lay down for a while, got off the kang and came to the living room, "I slept so comfortably." Have you eaten yet? Son, it's time for you to sleep. Wake up early tomorrow and Dad will play with you. ”

"Daddy hugged me to sleep."

Zhang Guoqing reached out to take the child, held the child in his arms, and patted him gently. It seems that not only the daughter-in-law is scared, but the child also lacks a sense of security.

The couple also did not dare to speak, fearing that the child would not be able to sleep. The two glanced at each other and smiled at each other, Zhou Jiao stood up and washed her hands and began to wrap beanbags on the kang.

A few days ago, she was not in the mood, and with Zhang's mother here, her actions were greatly resisted. Now that everyone is back, it is time to prepare more steamed buns and bean buns.

Zhang Guoqing saw that the child was asleep, gently placed it on the kang head, and covered the quilt. Standing in front of the kang and watching for a while, he saw that the child was sleeping like a pig, he laughed in a low voice: "This sleep skill is really good." ”

"Are you hungry? Would you like to have a bite to eat? ”

"Don't eat yet. While no one is moving around now, I'll go to the kitchen to steam the buns, and you sleep with your son. ”

Zhou Jiao happily brushed her hand, "I can't sleep now." Let's go, let's go together. I found that there is nothing to do with steamed buns, which are suitable for eating anytime, anywhere. ”

Zhang Guoqing picked up a coat to help her put it on, and carried her back to the kitchen.

When the couple saw that it was snowing heavily outside and blowing strong winds, they snickered happily.

Zhang Guoqing didn't say that he could come back today, but Old Man Wang felt that the sky was wrong and it was not safe in the mountains. He is now trying to make Zhou Jiao forget, so as not to settle accounts after the autumn.

Early in the morning, Zhang Guoqing woke up and went out of the room lightly. After washing, I wrote a note and put it in the living room, and rode my bicycle to the unit in the heavy snow.

Yesterday, he hurried home, and he didn't have time to talk to Zhao Dashan and them in detail. Then his vacation came, and he planned to take a vacation first.

In the unit, the atmosphere today was joyful and warm, and everyone was talking about hunting fun.

Zhang Guoqing did a good job and received his own benefits. As for wolf meat, no one in their family was interested, so they contributed half of it to the canteen, pulling the remaining wolf meat and other wild things to store in the warehouse in the yard.

It was close to noon when they returned to the small courtyard in the village, and the couple hadn't talked a few words. Many people came one after another and invited him to go up the mountain together, but Zhang Guoqing refused with a smile.

After Zhou Jiao and the others dispersed, they looked at him curiously.

"It's too cold, it's easy to get white-haired, and just after fighting the wolf, that thing holds a grudge, and it's not safe to go up the mountain now. There is no shortage of food or clothing in our family, so there is no need to take risks. ”

After speaking, he really saw Zhou Jiao smiling happily. made him even more determined to worry his daughter-in-law in the short term, never going up the mountain again.

"I have a holiday next, so I can spend time at home with you and my son. What do you think you need me to do? Do you need to prepare anything before the year? ”

Zhou Jiao rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "Twenty-five makes tofu, and twenty-six boils meat." These two things alone require you to exert mental and physical strength. Those two pigs should be dealt with. ”

Zhang Guoqing nodded in agreement. If you don't deal with it now, there will be no place in the future. He looked around and thought it was possible. In the dead of night, you can deal with it without knowing it.

Approaching the end of the year, the couple began to prepare New Year's paintings, firecrackers, couplets and other New Year's goods during the day, learned to make tofu, and killed pigs at night to fill blood sausages.

After Zhang Guoqing's five-day holiday, the arrangements were finally made, and the family of three packed up and returned to the county seat. The only thing that made Zhou Jiao regret was that she couldn't eat pig-killing dishes. The family is worried that the fragrance will overflow, and the village will kill the pig on the 26th day of the lunar month.

Fortunately, in the county seat, the family has a fair and honest wild thing, and with the addition of the supply of the New Year's holiday, she can take the opportunity to boil some meat and blood sausage at night, which is in vain for her to remember the whole year.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, a family of three made a wish with a red candle.

In order to seek peace and auspiciousness, the couple made a red lantern with a light bulb.

In the early morning of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the family got up early, pasted door links, peach charms, and spring strips at the gate, in the warehouse, and in the kitchen, pasted windows on each window, and hung New Year paintings in the living room to reunite the knot.

Immediately after that, the longevity lamp on the wooden frame was erected high and connected to the power supply. Looking at the red lanterns, the couple laughed happily - they would not worry that it would not be until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

After a busy day, Zhang Guoqing went to the post office to the capital to take a telegram to his father-in-law to greet the New Year in advance, and finally carried a large bag and a small bag, accompanied by his wife and son, and went back to his hometown to accompany his parents for a reunion dinner.
