Not far from Akaba Castle, there is a small village, it is the middle of winter, the village is already covered with snow, and it does not have the scent of wild rice flowers that it used to have. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

As the New Year approaches, the village is supposed to be made by sunrise and sunset, but at this time, it is just the time for children to celebrate.

They were all dressed in cotton clothes, braving the falling snow, standing at the entrance of the village, looking into the distance, as if waiting for something.

"Oh~ Look, it's Daddy and they're back!" Suddenly, a boy who was only eleven or twelve years old saw some dark shadows appearing in the sky, and couldn't help but point there excitedly and cheered.

"Haha~ Daddy, they're finally back, and now I have new clothes to wear!"

"My clothes are still my brother's year before last, his body is growing fast, I wore just right last year, so I didn't buy new clothes, and now I can finally have new clothes!"

More than a dozen children cheered and excited, and as the New Year approached, what they most hoped for was their parents, who went to the city to buy New Year's goods, and could bring back new clothes for them.

"It's a pity that Sister Xue'er is not here, so I can't eat the rice cakes she made!" While being happy, the eleven or twelve-year-old boy from before was suddenly a little depressed and said in a low voice.

"Sister Xue'er, it's been three years since she left the village, I don't know if she's okay now?"

"I was young when Sister Xue'er left, but maybe because of that horrible scene, I will never forget it!"

For a while, when this topic was mentioned, from twelve or thirteen years old to seven or eight years old, the children's faces were devoid of that joy.

In their hearts, the dusty scene kept emerging, impacting their consciousness.

Three years ago, Cher left her village, and before that, a group of bandits who were inferior to animals attacked their village, leaving many children unrelievable.

The ground seemed to be stained red with blood, and the sorrow was unforgettable.

At that time, if it weren't for a genius boy who happened to pass by here and killed those bandits with unimaginable strength, perhaps, their village would have ceased to exist a long time ago.

Xue'er left with that young man, maybe she will have a very happy life, very happy!

"Hey~ Babies, we're back!"

Suddenly, a hearty shout rang out, pulling the children's thoughts back.

I saw that when they were immersed in painful memories, the figures on the horizon were gradually approaching.

It was seven or eight stout men, and three wagons full of goods, all with happy smiles on their faces.

"Daddy, where's my new clothes?"

"And me, I want new clothes too!"

The children, who were young after all, were instantly attracted by the carriage full of goods, and immediately howled excitedly to meet them.

"Haha~ There are all of them, everyone has new clothes this year, and there will be no one less!"

The stout men laughed loudly, and they worked hard and tired, just to be able to share their family with their wives and children.

"Okay, okay~ I finally have new clothes to wear this year, so I don't have to wear my brother's!"

"Dad, you're walking too slowly, I'm going back quickly to tell everyone you're back!"

"I'm going too, wait for me!"

A group of children cheered, chased, and ran quickly towards the village.

"Daddy, they're back, they've brought a lot of goods, everyone come and see!"

"Auntie, Brother, Daddy and Uncle, they are back, and I also have new clothes to wear this year!"

In a few moments, the voices of the children were already resounding in this small village.

"Yo~ It's just sunset, the meal is ready, and I'm back in time!"

"Hehe~ Dalong, you have been going for three days, and you are finally back!"

"There are a lot of goods purchased this year, three cars full, I'm afraid it's half more than last year, right?"

When the people of the village heard the cheers of the children, they could not help but come out with curiosity, and when they saw the three carriages that were fully loaded, they could not help but be quite surprised and delighted.

In the past, when the end of the year was approaching, the men of the village would take the beast skins and furs they had obtained during the year to the town and sell them in exchange for New Year's goods.

However, the New Year's goods brought back by the men in previous years are not as old as they are now, and it may not be that there are some good things on the road.

Of course, the villagers don't care too much about good things or bad things, they only care about the safety of the men.

The men are the pillars of the village, if they are unfortunate enough to encounter bandits or something, then leave them with a group of old and young women and children, how can they live?

"Hehe~ Come on, come on, a few of you will take a handle and unload all these goods. ”

"Mother-in-law, you also have to come to the handle, distribute these goods, every family, no less!"

The men beckoned to the approaching villagers, there is a lot of strength, everyone can work together, you can finish the task early and go home for dinner.

"Be careful, there are a lot of firecrackers here, don't light them!"

"Oh, this is the baby's clothes, everyone has it!"

The village was not large, and there were not many people, so people gathered, and twenty or thirty people worked together, and they were quickly distributed.

"Old man, this is a crutch for you, your one is all polished and slippery, beware of falling!" a man took out a finely workman's crutch from a large cargo, and walked towards an old man.

That is the village chief of Gujiazhuang, Xue'er's grandfather, with the increase of age, although he is still vigorous, but without crutches, it is a little difficult to work.

"Hehe~ I'm an old bone, I don't know when I'm going to go into the ground, you still do this for me. The village chief took it and smiled happily.

This is some of the thoughts of everyone, and he can only accept it.

"What did you say, old man, you have a long life, and now you are only in your early seventies, and the days to come are still long!"

When the villagers heard this, they spoke out one after another to express their relief.

Parting from life and death is a necessary reincarnation in life, but in this world, as long as there is no disease and no pain, even ordinary people can live to be eighty or ninety years old, or even a hundred years old.

And the old man of the village chief is full of blood and energy, like a fifty or sixty-year-old prime, not to mention a hundred years old, at least he can live for more than ten years.

"Hehe~ I don't dare to think about a long life, I just hope that I can take a look at Xue'er again before I die!" The old man of the village chief smiled slightly, but shook his head and said.

Thirty and stand, forty and not confused, fifty and know the destiny of heaven, sixty and obedient, seventy and do what the heart wants.

At his age, he has long looked down on life and death, and he will not expect too much, the only thing he looks forward to is to be able to see the peace and happiness of his descendants, that's all.
