Chapter Ninety-Nine: It's New Year

"Let's go later, a few of them are really amazing." The stall owner on the side smiled when he saw it.

Because they watched Liu Man'er and the others eat from the previous family.

"It's rare for children to come to the county seat, so I'll take them to eat enough." Liu Man'er smiled at the stall owner.

Liu Fusheng and the others on the other side are also not good, they are three people to share a share, Liu Man'er and Ye Yuan and the little monkey share a share, but although it doesn't seem to be much, there are many things that can't be relied on.

"You guys still can't eat much." Liu Man'er looked at the small basket in front of her and said, "There are so many things here." ”

"I can't eat it." Liu Fusheng waved his hand and said, "Sister, my belly is bursting." ”

"Let's go, let's take a walk and digest it, overeating like this is actually not good for the body." After resting for a while, Liu Man'er stood up.

"You know it's not good, you still deliberately take us to eat like this?" Ye Yuan heard her say this, and there was nothing he could do with her.

"It's hard to make a trip, so don't care about these little details." Liu Man'er said with a grin, after resting for a while, she felt that her stomach was much more comfortable.

We walked around the store for a while, bought some fabrics, the New Year, Liu Man'er generously bought brocade for everyone, she said to buy a cloak for everyone, but the hair on the cloak is not very good, she thought that anyway, she has fur at home, and she doesn't have to spend this money, and she goes home to make a cloak.

It just so happened that Ye Yuan had saved a lot of fluffy rabbit hair, and when the time came, he would take it to the town and ask a special master to order it, put it on thick cotton, and make it with fine brocade, that would be great.

After a year of study, Liu Man'er has barely learned to make clothes, and she bought a kind of brocade, which is half brocade and half cotton, which is cheaper than brocade and looks better than cotton.

This year, I can be regarded as earning some money, and after building a house, there is some leftover, so Liu Man'er bought these brocade cotton, planning to make clothes for everyone.

The weather was cold, and I bought some lard paste for everyone to wipe their hands and feet in the shop selling rouge gouache, and then bought some candied fruit and other things, and Liu Man'er and his party went back.

Then it was a couplet that was sold a few times, and there were only a few days left before the New Year, and Liu Man'er finally stopped jumping, so she enjoyed this kind of leisure time.

You don't have to do anything, go to bed early and get up late, eat every day, take the children to play, and the days go by quickly.

In the blink of an eye, it was the thirtieth of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and on this day the house was cleaned up, the tables were wiped and the floor was wiped down, everything was cleaned and arranged in an orderly manner.

Ye Yuan was cutting bamboo chips early in the morning, he said that he wanted to make lanterns for everyone, Liu Man'er watched with great interest, and then she helped Ye Yuan paint various patterns on the red cloth with paint.

In the afternoon, the lantern frames around Ye Yuan were piled up all over the corner, and Fang Clan came over to help paste the lanterns.

Liu Man'er has never seen anyone make a lantern, in fact, it is quite interesting, put a red candle in the lantern, Liu Man'er made a tassel to hang it, and lit the candle, this lantern is instantly presentable.

"Wait until it's dark, don't worry now." Fang Shi saw that she couldn't wait to light the lantern and reminded her.

"Okay, I got it." Liu Man'er put the lit lantern aside, but it was not blown out, she felt that the year should be prosperous, and it was unlucky to blow out the candle.

In the evening, the Fang clan made a big meal for everyone, there was a lot of fish and meat, Liu Man'er had a great appetite, Ye Yuan set off firecrackers outside, and the year was over.

After eating the reunion dinner together, Liu Man'er and the others were busy hanging lanterns, Ye Yuan did a lot, and the whole house was full of hanging in front of and behind the house, and the red one was so enviable.

After chatting for a while in the evening, everyone went to take a New Year's bath, washed their bodies cleanly, and removed the dust of the old year.

After that, it was the New Year's Keeper, Fang's brought the dumplings for the New Year, it was hot, it happened to be a little hungry at night, Liu Man'er took the lead in eating one, but he didn't expect to eat the dumplings with copper coins all of a sudden.

"I'm going to make a fortune next year." Liu Man'er took the copper plate and said with a smile.

Fang also nodded, "That is, if our family doesn't get rich, who will get rich." ”

Everyone laughed, the Ye family has not been so lively for many years, this year's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is also more hearty than usual, in the past family to cook a piece of meat, also can not eat, until the future cooking is really no longer able to cook, willing to take it out to eat.

But this year, you can let go of your belly to eat, Ye Qing watched everyone laugh happily on the side, although he refused to admit it, but he also had to admit that during the time he was working outside, the family had really changed a lot.

He just wants to go out next year, and his family will definitely not let him go out, after all, she has been working outside for almost a year, and the silver she got is not a tael of silver, and her sister-in-law went out to sell some peanuts and Spring Festival couplets, and there are several taels of silver.

Ye Qing didn't quite understand, when did this money make such a good profit?

In the old year, it is natural to make a plan for the new year, Liu Man'er is to raise more chickens and ducks, rabbits and sheep, but also to buy cattle to raise, in addition to plant a lot of fruit trees, and finally develop their own small workshop.

Ye Yuan said that he would listen to Liu Man'er's arrangement anyway, help with the work when the time comes, and then go hunting in the mountains in his spare time.

Ye Qing knew that he couldn't go to the restaurant, so he said that he would leave the matter of sending these prey, boiled eggs, and preserved eggs to the restaurant in the future, and he would take care of several acres of land, and be responsible for cutting grass for rabbits, cattle and sheep to eat, etc.

Ye Feng and Liu Fusheng are still studying hard, Ye Feng said that he will go to the Tongsheng exam next year and strive to pass once, Liu Fusheng said that he will strive to recognize more words in the new year.

Ye He and Cao Er followed Liu Man'er and helped Liu Man'er to work, Fu Lu was still doing housework, and Fang's was leading the whole family, helping to take care of the children, cooking, etc.

Well, the plans for next year have been made, and if there are no surprises, that's it.

After all, the long night is long, and a few children can't keep it anymore, so they go to sleep, Liu Man'er leans on Ye Yuan, her spirit is very good, she decided to keep this year, after all, she is an adult, and she has to follow Ye Yuan to welcome the God of Wealth.

But sitting dry is also boring, eating some melons and fruits, and taking out the book "Qi Min Technique" to read carefully, slowly, the time has come.

This is a big festival, the chief of each village struck the gong once, and then there was the sound of firecrackers, and Liu Man'er also hurriedly burned tea, took incense candles out to welcome the God of Wealth.

After welcoming the God of Wealth, Fang's family, Ye Qing and the others also went to sleep, but Liu Man'er was completely sleepy, she pulled Ye Yuan and said, "Why don't we go outside and pick up some firewood and come back?" ”

"In the middle of the night, aren't you afraid of the cold?" Ye Yuan said.

"What are you afraid of cold, I have a cloak and cloak, and besides, where is it in the middle of the night? It's the New Year. Liu Man'er took Ye Yuan's arm and said, "Let's go, let's go, we have to bring firewood home first, so that we can make a fortune this year." ”

Ye Yuan couldn't resist her, so he went to the room to get a cloak, carried a lantern, and went out with her.

Not far from the village, they broke off two branches from a tree, and the two returned.

Yes, the custom here is to celebrate the Spring Festival, to break some branches from the tree and come back, and this branch is firewood.

Liu Man'er specially found a clean bottle, inserted the branch into it, and placed it on the most conspicuous cabinet at the main entrance.

"How? Who can be sooner than me? After plugging it in, she said with a little excitement.

"No one." Ye Yuan nodded and said, "I said, why did you suddenly buy a vase and come back, it turned out to be used to plant this firewood." ”

"Of course, let's go, go to sleep, it's cold." Liu Man'er stomped her feet, closed the door, and went upstairs to sleep.

The quilt has long been warmed by the soup woman, and it is very comfortable to sleep in, lying on the bed, thinking of the past events of last year, Liu Man'er can't help but be a little excited.

As if none of this is true, she has been here for a year, and in this year's time, she has finally lived a good life with her own hands, although she is not rich, but she can barely eat and wear, not worse than others.

Wait for next year's hard work and buy more land, and then she can be a landlord with peace of mind.

Originally, thinking about these willow vines, she felt that she couldn't sleep, but in fact, when Ye Yuan packed everything and climbed into bed, she hugged him and quickly fell asleep.

Oh, yes, there is one more person by her side for the Chinese New Year this year, and now all she thinks about is this Ye Yuan beside her, and unconsciously, the Ye Yuan in her memory has already gradually faded away.

The person she likes, although he is serious and cold on the surface, but in fact he is extremely warm, although he can't say some warm words, and he doesn't smile often, but he always silently is a warm man by her side.

"Ye Yuan, do you love me?" Liu Man'er thought that there was one more person beside her, so she raised her head and asked.

"Well, isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to ask me so boldly?" Ye Yuan was still a little resistant to Liu Man'er's bold words, in his opinion, what he loved or didn't loved was in his heart, how embarrassing it should be to say it like this.

"Speak, do you love me?" Liu Man'er shook his arm coquettishly.

Ye Yuan only felt that there was a pair of soft hands scratching on his heart, which made him feel a little uneasy.

"I think it's better for me to prove this problem with my behavior." Ye Yuan said and bullied up.

"Hey, I'm asking you what you're talking about." Liu Man'er tried hard to push him away.

"I'm answering you."

Ye Yuan said vaguely......

"Hmm......"
