Chapter 13: Chinese New Year's Eve

Since giving Liu Xin blood, she has been able to stay for a while during the day. According to the description of the "Tao Sutra", according to the description of the "Tao Sutra", she crosses blood every seven days, and as long as she crosses blood seven times in a row, her soul can be transformed into a yang god, and she can live like a normal person.www.biquge.info

But the problem also came, Liu Xin said that we already have a skin-to-skin relationship, and she must marry me! It didn't help if I let my throat smoke, and in the end we had to put the dispute aside and put the matter on hold. However, fortunately, she is no longer like a little woman, a slave family or something, and has begun to integrate into modern society.

I have been feeling sore and weak all over my body for the last few days, which are the sequelae of excessive blood loss. But it is also a blessing in disguise, because Liu Xin will open a small stove for me every day, and make some meals that nourish qi and blood for me to eat. In addition, I have a strong foundation and am in my teenage years, so these symptoms have eased a lot after two or three days.

Time flies, and day by day is approaching the end of the year. Tonight is Chinese New Year's Eve, so there are a lot of people who come to the grain and oil store to buy things. Everyone is busy buying New Year's goods, and the commonly used firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea are naturally indispensable, and the necessary things for the New Year, such as candy and melon seeds, cannot be bad! So I got busy, and after a few tosses, I was already dizzy, and I couldn't even find the north. When the crowd gradually receded, it was nearly three o'clock, and I remembered that it was time to go back to my hometown and go to Da Bo's for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

My aunt said a few days ago that I should go to my uncle's hometown for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in the evening, but when I think of their family having a happy reunion, am I not superfluous? So yesterday, when my uncle called my father to inform me to go to his place for Chinese New Year's Eve, I agreed in one bite.

When school started, the uncle's wife went out with his mother, and the uncle was home alone anyway. And my sister and her classmates participated in a college entrance examination training class, and I didn't have time to go home for the Chinese New Year, so I was also alone with my aunt. So when I received a call from my father, I was thinking that my uncle and I were also a family, and it would be more reasonable to go to him for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

After I had made it clear to my aunt, I was ready to go, but there were no more passenger vehicles on the street, not even the usual number of motorcycles. I had no choice but to walk back step by step on my feet.

Not only are there few vehicles on the road, but there are not even a few people, so everyone should be busy with the New Year! It is said that it is a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, but in fact, many people start the New Year reunion in the afternoon!

Looking at the busy scenes of people on both sides of the road, watching their faces full of laughter, and watching them decorate their houses with festive decorations, I can't help but go back to the scene of the Chinese New Year when my parents were at home.

"They must be sticking the Spring Festival and preparing a sumptuous Chinese New Year's Eve dinner!" I thought to myself.

The sound of firecrackers broke the silence not far away, and I walked alone on the road under the gray sky. The excitement belongs to them, and I, nothing.

"Xin'er, talk to me." I said to Liu Xin in the Qiankun Jade in a low mood. Since we had a "skin-to-skin relationship" with her, we have not been free from the previous constraints, and the title has become more intimate.

"Zijie, what's wrong with you? Isn't this New Year's celebration a joy to be habilitated? But you don't seem to be in a good mood! Liu Xin's gentle voice came out of the Qiankun Yujue, which made me feel less lonely.

"Seeing others celebrating the New Year while I ...... Alas......" I said with a sigh.

Just when I sighed, a circle of brilliance lit up on the Qiankun Yujue, and Liu Xin actually came out of the Qiankun Yujue directly! Fortunately, there is no one around, otherwise there may be people who have a restless life during the New Year. But what does it matter? Who would give me a second glance as a passerby?

Although it usually doesn't snow in winter in my hometown, Liu Xin is still a bit of an eyesore when she walks on the road in a long skirt, so I took off my coat and draped it over her.

"Don't freeze!" Actually, I don't know if the ghost will feel cold, but I think I should do it.

"You're so nice!" Liu Xin smiled faintly, she grabbed my left hand with both hands, and the whole person leaned on my shoulder.

I wanted to put a little bit of distance, but I thought about it. I felt my heart beating so fast, and a warm current was born in my heart.

In order to avoid meeting my parents' acquaintances on the road, I deliberately chose to take a small road, so that the distance will be shorter and can save a lot of time.

With Liu Xin's company, I walked very fast, and it didn't take long for me to see a small dirt slope, as long as I crossed this dirt slope, I arrived.

"Xin'er, I'm here!" I said to Liu Xin, who was quietly snuggling up to me.

"Oh, well!" Liu Xin put on her coat for me, and reluctantly entered the Qiankun Yujue.

I quickened my pace to the door of my uncle's house, and it happened that he was also looking at this time, and I couldn't help but think of my father when I saw my uncle's face.

"I'm sorry uncle, there are no cars on the street, I came on foot......" I said to him apologetically. It can be seen that he has been waiting for a long time.

"Out of the way, out of the way. It's just that the dishes are cold, and I'll be hot again. ”

After saying that, the uncle brought a table full of dishes into the kitchen, and I followed into the kitchen to help.

"Zijie, you sit and watch TV for a while, I'll heat up the dishes, and it will be ready soon."

"It's okay uncle, I'll help light the fire."

In the countryside, they basically burn firewood for cooking, and it is estimated that the uncle is busy enough to cook so many dishes alone.

After the fire was boiling, the uncle saw that the bottom of the pot was already hot, so he poured the vegetables into the pot and kept stir-frying with a spatula. With the sound of "snort", the enticing aroma fills the kitchen.

I used to like to cook at home when my mom was cooking, because I felt comfortable and I could learn how to stir-fry from my mom.

I once heard my father mention that my uncle also suffered a lot when he was a child, and at that time, my grandfather was not at home all the year round in order to earn a living, and my uncle, my father and my uncle could only be self-reliant. And the uncle, as the eldest in the family, also cooks, so his cooking tastes good, but he has never had the opportunity to taste it.

"I don't know how Grandpa is doing?" I muttered.

Chinese New Year's Eve was originally a time for family reunions, and I couldn't help but think of my grandfather who was still adrift when he was a lot older. In the past, my mother would ask me to call my grandfather home during the Chinese New Year, but now ...... It's definitely not going to be possible this year anyway.

The relationship between my uncle's family and my grandfather has always been very bad, so I don't dare to mention it openly. Dad and uncle have been working outside, and the uncle doesn't support grandpa, so grandpa is still living alone in his seventies.

Speaking of which, there are two reasons why the relationship between grandpa and uncle is so bad: one is that grandma's death has a lot to do with the uncle's daughter, and I heard that it was to save the uncle's daughter who fell into the manure pit. The second is that when grandma passed away, Mr. Feng Shui said that he would use his uncle to accompany him to the funeral in order to calm his grandmother's resentment, which made grandpa and uncle completely fall out! Although it was later confirmed that Mr. Feng Shui was my grandmother's cousin, the one who caused our family to get along, the estrangement between father and son has not been eliminated.

As soon as I entered the door, the uncle began to talk to me about some trivial things, and I naturally listened carefully and responded from time to time. Uncle is a native of the countryside, and he has taken money very seriously all his life, and he has to bargain with doctors for medical treatment and medicine.

What he said was nothing more than how many catties of rice were harvested this year, how much corn kernels were sold, and so on. But I didn't know anything about it, so I talked to him so as not to spoil the atmosphere.

Soon, the hot meal was served to the table, and the uncle came out with white wine and wine. Naturally, he drank the liquor, and the wine was naturally mine.

It's more appropriate to say that it's a little alcohol in a grape-flavored sugar water, and you can buy two bottles for a dozen dollars, which is a child's favorite in our country.

When I was a child, I looked forward to the New Year, and in addition to new clothes, I was most looking forward to this wine.

After that, you have to worship heaven and earth and sacrifice to the god of the stove. It is also necessary to burn yellow mounting paper and burn dead coins for deceased relatives. The last is to set off firecrackers, close the door and splash rice. Of course, these are all done by the uncle, I just silently bow to the side, silently recite incense mantras in my heart, etc.

After drinking and eating, the uncle was also slightly drunk.

"Actually, this New Year's holiday, I also want to bring your grandfather back, and everyone has a reunion dinner together, why not? But as soon as he met me, he cursed me......"

Uncle took advantage of the wine to say a lot, and I once heard my father mention that in fact, before my grandmother passed away, my grandfather's favorite among the three sons was my uncle. But after experiencing those things, the father and son have become like fire and water. If you don't meet, it's enough, if you don't have anyone to dissuade you from meeting, you will definitely fight!

Originally, my uncle wanted to keep me at his house for the first day of the Lunar New Year, but I had some recognition of the bed, and it was difficult to sleep well in other people's homes, so I finally chose to go back.

This time I didn't take the trail, mainly because it was not early, and the road was slippery when it was dark and prone to accidents. Moreover, there will be almost no one on the road of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and I am not afraid that anyone will recognize me.

As soon as she walked out of the village, Liu Xin couldn't wait to come out of the Qiankun Yujue, holding my hand and walking side by side with me.

When I walked out into the street, I saw that there was still a stall selling fireworks on the side of the road, so I went up and bought a few packs of artillery for children to play with, as well as two boxes of electric fireworks and two lighters.

Artillery is an indispensable toy for children to celebrate the New Year, light a cannon primer, quickly throw it in the distance, in the water or in the mud, waiting for the explosion. Cheering for the splash of water that was blown up, and even more excited about the big crater in the mud.

There is a custom in the countryside that winter melons and pumpkins cannot be celebrated at home. One year, when I saw my mother carrying the winter melon and pumpkin outside the house, I thought I didn't want it, so I used artillery to blow up the winter melon and pumpkin. When my mother was about to move back after the Chinese New Year, she found that there was still a complete winter melon and pumpkin? So that year, every time my mother wanted to eat winter melon or pumpkin, she had to take it out and talk about it, but that kind of warm scene had already left me!

"You must not have played this, have you?"

I took out two of them from the box of the electric light flower, lit them with a lighter, and let Liu Xin hold them.

The electric flower does not explode, and when ignited, it bursts into beautiful fireworks, just like the scattered flowers of the goddess.

"Hehe......"

Liu Xin danced the electric flower in her hand and smiled happily. The firelight from the electric light flower reflected her face very brightly, and it was intoxicating to watch.

"Why not?" Liu Xin said dissatisfied.

It turned out that the electric spark had burned to the end, and the beautiful spark was gone.

At night, the sound of firecrackers around is getting more and more intense, this is because there are many people in the New Year at this time.

"Come on, let's play with this artillery. I'll set this on fire in a moment and tell you to throw it away, understand? "I handed Liu Xin a cannon.

"Throw it, it's going to explode! Fast! ”

After I lit it, I immediately asked Liu Xin to throw it away, and Liu Xin was very obedient and immediately threw the cannon far away.

The cannon that was thrown away by Liu Xin slowly spit out smoke at the end of the primer. After a few seconds, all you hear is "Bang! The cannon exploded.

The sudden sound startled Liu Xin, and she suddenly came over and hugged me.

I wanted to comfort her, but she immediately lit another one, then put her hands over her ears and waited nervously for the cannon to explode.

I couldn't help but laugh when I saw Liu Xin's nervous appearance, but I was also happy from the bottom of my heart to see her having so much fun.

Along the way, Liu Xin's laughter lingered in my ears. She had all the artillery in my hand and she was still having some fun.

"I can't walk, carry me!" Liu Xin said coquettishly.

"I really can't help you, come up!" I bowed down and said helplessly.

Liu Xin cheered, jumped directly on my back, and hugged my neck with both hands.

Her weight is almost negligible, and if I hadn't crossed her blood the other day, where would there be any weight? It's just that the close contact of the body is inevitably a little strange, and I slapped her on the buttocks on a whim.

"Badass!" Liu Xin said softly.

I smiled noncommittally, and walked towards OJ Town step by step with Liu Xin on my back.

At this time, the gorgeous fireworks burst out in the sky, the colorful beams of light were very beautiful, and Liu Xin on her back couldn't help cheering.

Walking to the store, my aunt and they hadn't returned home for the New Year, because my uncle hadn't gotten off work yet. My aunt made an exception and told me to rest early, so I took the key and went to the store.

This is naturally the best, after going up to the suite, I boiled water to take a shower, Liu Xin helped me wash my clothes, and then fell asleep with her. There's no way, since I helped her cross the blood, it's time to go to bed, no matter what I say, she doesn't want to go back to Qiankun Yujue.

In this way, with Liu Xin by my side, I spent the first Chinese New Year's Eve without my family.
