Chapter 811: Chinese New Year
After Li Xiaobao finished delivering things to the people of the village committee, he went to the town a few days later to get an old sow to divide it with Zhang Shan's two families.
Seeing that the smell of the New Year in the village is getting stronger and stronger, many children who went to school outside have returned, and everyone is visiting the door while setting off firecrackers.
Originally, Li Xiaobao still wanted to go to Heiwan, but Li Detian felt that it was not necessary.
"What are you going to do, call your grandfather to see what's going on, what are you going to do after the New Year tomorrow?"
Li Detian sat in the room and smoked leisurely, it is estimated that he will be more leisurely at this time of the year, and he will start to get busy early tomorrow morning.
"Okay!"
Li Xiaobao listened to Li Detian's words, nodded lightly, and called Luo Changgeng.
"Don't worry, there's nothing to worry about here!"
Luo Changgeng was very happy to receive Li Xiaobao's call, and said: "Everyone has a day off today, and they will start working shifts early tomorrow morning, so they can't delay things!"
"Okay!"
Li Xiaobao was relieved when he heard that there was nothing going on in the greenhouse, and nodded lightly.
In the afternoon, Li Xiaobao went to Zhang Ling's house and helped Zhang Ling clean up, not to mention anything else, Zhang Shan and Wang Fen helped themselves a lot on the fish pond this year.
The key is that Zhang Shan and Wang Fen are also their future fathers-in-law and mothers-in-law, so they have to behave themselves.
How could Zhang Ling not understand Li Xiaobao's thoughts, watching him close his mouth happily next to him, and let Li Xiaobao do this and that, making Wang Fen glare at her angrily.
"How can you let Xiaobao do it?
Wang Fen has been relatively good to Li Xiaobao since she was a child, and since Li Xiaobao planted a greenhouse, the more she looks at her future son-in-law, the happier she is.
"Come, Xiaobao, just sit and rest for a while, let Zhang Ling do it!"
Wang Fen said and brought a bench for Li Xiaobao and asked him to rest.
"It's okay, auntie, I'm not tired!"
Li Xiaobao smiled hesitantly and did not put down the work in his hand.
When the sky was about to darken, I don't know who in the village set off the first firecracker first, and then the rest of the people also began to put it up, and the crackling sound of firecrackers made the New Year more flavorful.
"Uncle, let's go over for dinner!"
Li Xiaobao cleaned up Zhang Shan's house for an afternoon, and then went to the village committee to walk around, and then came back and asked Zhang Shan's family to go to his house for dinner.
Anyway, there are three people in Zhang Shan's family, and there are not many people in his own family, just four, and the total is only seven, so let's have a good time.
"Okay, you and Zhang Ling go over first, and I'll go over with your aunt in a while!"
Zhang Shan listened to Li Xiaobao's words, smiled and waved his hand, and let Zhang Ling and Li Xiaobao go back first.
Dinner has not yet started, and the sound of firecrackers in the entire mountain village has become louder and louder, because this year, the people in the village have made a lot of money by planting gastrodia with Li Xiaobao, and in order to have a happy holiday, every household has bought a lot of firecrackers and fireworks.
Originally, Li Xiaobao still wanted to buy some fireworks for the village committee to send and put some there, but Song Liang said no, he had already bought all the fireworks in the village committee, and waited for everyone to go to the village committee early tomorrow morning to set off firecrackers, and set off fireworks at night.
Li Xiaobao did not refuse when he heard this, and only bought his own firecrackers.
"Xiaobao, you guys also go out to set off two firecrackers after eating, if they want to sound, they must sound, haha!"
Zhang Shan said with a smile while drinking wine with Li Detian.
"Yes, it must ring, so that next year our days can be better!"
Li Detian also laughed when he heard Zhang Shan's words.
"Okay!"
Listening to Li Detian and Zhang Shan's words, Li Xiaobao smiled faintly, he knew that they were also trying to comfort themselves.
After Li Xiaobao got up early the next morning, he saw that Li Detian had already put on new clothes with a smile on his face, waiting for the people who came to pay New Year's greetings.
"Xiaobao, if you go out for a walk, I won't go!"
Li Detian was talking about asking Li Xiaobao to pay New Year's greetings to the elders in the village.
"Okay, Dad!"
Li Xiaobao listened to Li Detian's words and nodded gently, he knew that although he was the head of the mountain village, the etiquette of the New Year still had to be followed.
After breakfast, Li Xiaobao first went to Zhang Shan's house to worship Zhang Shan and Wang Fen for a year, and then went to Li Lei's house, after all, Li Lei is the second uncle of his own family.
After coming out of Li Lei's house, he went to Li Desheng's house.
Li Desheng and Li Hu took the workers to arrange Li Xiaobao to Heiwan, and it happened that today was the first day of the Lunar New Year, and Luo Changgeng arranged for their team to rest first.
"Xiaobao, here!"
Li Desheng saw Li Xiaobao coming, and hurriedly opened the door to greet him, and his wife was busy bringing candy for Li Xiaobao to eat.
"Uncle, aunt, don't be busy, I'll sit and leave, I'll go to the village committee later!"
Li Xiaobao entered the house, bowed Li Desheng for a year, chatted with them for a few words, and then left Li Desheng's yard.
"Look at you kid, let's have lunch here before leaving!"
Li Desheng kept sending Li Xiaobao outside the gate.
"No, you can go back, uncle!"
Li Xiaobao said: "I still have to go to Deshui and Uncle Deyin!"
Li Xiaobao made almost half of the mountain village all the way down, and the villagers greeted him warmly after seeing him, and they had to let him go to sit at home.
By the time he finished turning, it was almost noon.
"Village Chief, why are you here?"
Li Xiaobao had just arrived at the door of the village committee when he heard Ma Liang say excitedly: "Everyone has been waiting for you for a long time!"
"What are you waiting for me to do, you can just let it go first!"
Li Xiaobao looked at Ma Liang and said with a smile.
"You are the village chief, we don't dare to let you go if you don't come!"
Ma Liang said, pointing to the firecrackers that had already been hung in the yard and said.
"Yes, you're a big village chief, you're really busy, haha!"
"Haha, yes, we've been waiting for you for a long time!"
At this time, Song Deyin and Li Lei walked out of the office and said to Li Xiaobao.
Li Xiaobao looked at the smiles on their faces and sighed helplessly, he went to Li Lei's house when he came out of Zhang Shan's house, and now Li Lei and they have been waiting in the village committee all morning.
"What's that, Xiaobao, it's the New Year, you have the first firecracker, I hope our backing village can be prosperous this year!"
Song Deyin said and handed a lighter to Li Xiaobao.
"Okay, then I'll order it first!"
Li Xiaobao listened to Song Deyin's words and was not polite, and directly lit a firecracker.
With the crackling sound of firecrackers, everyone's faces were full of excitement, as if they really saw the prosperous scene of the mountain village this year.
In the sound of firecrackers, a happy smile appeared on everyone's faces.
