The laughter of Toshi and Yamachunhua in the courtyard makes it difficult to ignore.

Shan Tao was led by Sanzhu, ran out of the room, and when he saw Shan Saburo who came back, he sighed and muttered in a low voice: "Why did the third uncle come back so early......

After talking to his mother and sister, Shan Saburo saw Shan Tao at a glance, and looked at her now that her face was round, wearing clean new clothes and combing two pigtails, and she didn't dare to recognize it for a while: "Sanzhu, you are holding Siya?" It's grown. ”

I originally wanted to show my care as an elder in front of Shan Tao, but seeing that people were better off than themselves, I didn't say anything.

Even if they don't like it, but the junior's courtesy is not costly, Sanzhu and Shan Tao waved at Shan Saburo and shouted in unison to the third uncle.

"Okay, Siya, the third uncle brought you sugar." Shan Saburo acted according to the original plan, squeezed out a smile that he thought was kind, and sighed again, "The second brother is young and gone, you and Qiu Niang are suffering, don't worry, the third uncle is still ......"

Sugar Shan Tao took it and stuffed it directly to Sanzhu, raised his head and showed a big smile at Shan Saburo, interrupting him, "Third uncle, are you stupid?" My dad is fine, and now he's in the room. ”

Shan Chunhua, who was ignored by his brother, puffed out his cheeks, and didn't understand why Shan Saburo came back and sold well to Siya, so he sarcastically said angrily, "Third brother, people have fathers, so I don't need you to be courteous here." ”

It's just that the delicious mountain spring flower got the appreciative eyes of the mountain peach, and the white eyes rolled and became even more angry.

Shan Erlang, who had heard enough of the corner of the room in the room, walked out with a smile at this time, and he also put on the new clothes that Du Yingqiu had made before leaving.

The pine-gray robe lined him neatly and cleanly, and he recuperated his injuries and ate better, and by the way, his complexion was also whiter, and then lined with that bookish atmosphere, he was more like a scholar than Yamazaburo, a county school student.

"The third brother is back? It's hard work on the road, it's cold this day, and it's all freezing nonsense. ”

The father and daughter teamed up to tease people, and Yamazaburo's face was visibly eggplant-colored, and he said in disbelief: "You're not dead?!" ”

Du Shi on the side also saw the abnormality of Shan Saburo, and was worried about the monthly filial piety of the second room, and slapped people on the back: "The New Year, what is not dead, how unlucky." Are you hungry when you come back from the road? The daughter-in-law of the big house, hurry up and put down a bowl of noodles for San Lang, cut more of your meat, and get an egg. ”

Jin, who had washed his hands just now, snorted in his heart, turned around and went back to the room, he didn't pass the exam for so many years, and he knew how to eat white food.

Sanzhu smashed the candy and finished eating, and then pulled the peach and chattered, "The third uncle loves to preach the most, and he is very slammering, this time he actually gave you sugar, he must not be well-intentioned." ”

"Third brother, you are so smart, you can see it." Shan Tao's praise was not distracted, he only squeezed a look at his father, and then pulled the three pillars to eavesdrop on the corner.

There were only Du Shi and Shan Saburo in the main house, and even Shan Chunhua was not allowed to enter, Shan Chunhua stomped her foot and turned her head to go out to find her little friend.

Although the sound insulation effect of this dilapidated house is very poor, the whispers of this level are still inaudible, but Du Shi did not suppress a word and exclaimed.

"What are you talking about!?"

After being suppressed by Yamazaburo's voice again, Yama Tao walked around the house, and finally found the right direction, and used immortal magic to see the scene in the house.

Du Shi held a piece of paper in his hand, and Yamazaburo sat next to him with a sullen expression.

The two muttered for a while, but they still reached an agreement.

Du Shi glanced at the direction of the second room through the window, and his face was a little hesitant, "Siya is only six years old when he turns the new year...... You're too ......."

"Mother, she's just a girl, your son and I still have a long future in the future." Shan Saburo has been weak from the beginning to now, and the more he talks, the more convinced he is that his decision is right, "In the future, my son will earn a life for you and come back, so that you can also be an old lady of the official family." ”

Du Shi didn't admit to this, but his face did soothe it, and things that hurt others and benefit themselves were naturally good to their mother and son.

The third day of Sanzaburo's return was Chinese New Year's Eve.

This year, the weather is a little dry, and the harvest in the field is not good, which is a thin year for Qingshan Village, but the big wild boar has added meat and vegetables to every household, so it will not be too bleak.

Children don't understand this, they only know that they can always eat delicious food during the New Year's holidays, even if they don't have it at home, they can smell the fragrance of other people's houses to satisfy their hunger.

Early in the morning, a table was set up in the courtyard of the mountain house, with red paper in the middle, pen and ink on the right, and a basket on the left.

Yama Saburo was wearing a clean long shirt, and he didn't even wear a thick coat for the sake of demeanor, so he was sitting in a precarious position, and there was a mountain spring flower standing on the side who was also wearing a new clothes, and he was prepared to grind ink and wore a pink beaded flower on his head that he was reluctant to wear on weekdays.

The mountain peach that was dug out of the bed by his father was still a little awake, rubbed his eyes and looked at the scene outside the door, speechless for a while, "Third uncle, isn't he cold?" ”

"People play with red sleeves and add fragrance." Shan Erlang helped Shan Tao tie his braids, which was not better than Du Yingqiu's, and it was a little crooked, but with two red velvet bands with small bells, it looked particularly festive.

The clothes are dressed by Shan Tao, the madder-colored fine linen jacket is filled with warm kapok, and the bulging jacket wraps the thin little person, and it seems to be rounded up, like a lucky doll.

Even the wolf cub didn't fall, he was caught by Shan Tao and tied a red rope around his neck, and the wolf cub who ate bones every day in the second room had learned what it meant to know the times, and he didn't struggle at all.

Morning Eater Yamajiro personally cooked thick rice porridge, boiled two eggs, and served it with pickles that Kim "accidentally" fell into the kitchen and served on a small plate, and the father and daughter ate it beautifully.

The fragrance of the room wafted into the yard, and Yama Saburo, who already felt cold, was even more unbearable, and his eyes couldn't help but glance at the room, "Don't you say that the second room is firing alone?" It tastes better than what we eat. ”

After the father and daughter of the second room were full of food and drink, they also began to prepare, and like Yamazaburo, they put a small table and red paper near the door of the second house, and waited for someone to come with their hands.

Before Yama Saburo and Yama Haruka could understand, the guests waiting for the two teams had already come to the door.

The first to come was Uncle Sun, who didn't look at Yama Saburo as soon as he entered the yard, and went straight to Shan Erlang, and laughed loudly: "Happy New Year, I'm tired." ”

After saying that, Uncle Sun stuffed a small red envelope and gave it to Shan Tao, and then Shan Tao said an auspicious word, and Shan Erlang spread out the pen and paper and wrote a couplet with a happy meaning.

It is an ancient tradition to post couplets for the New Year, and this is also the day that Yama Saburo and Shan Chunhua look forward to the most every year, because there is only one scholar in Aoyama Village.

A pair of couplets collects five pennies, using inferior paper and ink, and can make a sum of New Year's money every year, compared to before, the most important thing is a long face.

This year, however, the situation has clearly turned.

From Uncle Sun, one after another, the villagers who came to the door to ask for couplets invariably walked to the door of the second room, some elders came to give Shan Tao a penny or two of New Year's money, and there were also pinched vegetables or an egg, and there were many empty-handed.

The second room is fully accepted according to the order, not the copper plates, but only a festive and auspicious.

Yamazaburo is not happy, eh, they are happy in the second room.
