Among the fleeing fish, there was a golden-tailed koi three or four feet long, which was hugged by young children, and fled into a small ditch in a panic.

The water in this ditch is so shallow, no matter how much it jumps, it can't jump out of this little ditch. And the day, it actually started to snow.

Duanxue Mega Year. Not for fish. The water in the ditch was so shallow that it soon froze, and the fish gradually lost their vitality under the ice.

No one knew there was a fish there, because it jumped into the ditch after everyone had left.

Ning Caichen was having fun.

Is it just this year-old?

Ning Caichen really can't imagine how these ancients survived this long night when there were no computers and no televisions. Even if there is a deck of poker, it is good to spend this long night together with three or five people.

It's a pity that this is ancient, not to mention that poker was not invented, even if it was made now, it also has to be caught and taught from 1 to 13 sizes.

Teach numbers, it's nothing, he definitely does it. But this is Chinese New Year's Eve, the ancient Chinese New Year's Eve, there is no such thing as sneaking into the door, let alone keeping vigil in other people's homes. Where to find these three or five people?

With such a New Year's Eve, Ning Caichen was a little disappointed and unwilling to be a companion. But it's not okay not to accompany him, this is ancient times, and he can't keep the year, so he still has to survive.

"Chen'er, hold on a little longer, and you can sleep when the rooster crows. Ning's mother encouraged him.

Chicken crow?

Ning Caichen suddenly had an idea. With the help of urine, he hurried out, hurried back, and then the rooster crowed.

Chickens are silly. What the sun rises, the rooster crows, it's just a fairy tale. There are many ways to make a chicken crow, and learning to crow is only the easiest one.

As soon as the rooster crowed, the children of the village were relieved, they played so crazy during the day, they were already too sleepy to stand it, and when the rooster crowed, it was like a sleeping alarm clock, and they fell into a deep sleep in an instant.

This year, the rooster crows a little early, but who cares?

After eating the Chinese New Year's Eve Chinese New Year's Eve, Ning Caichen sent Ning's mother to rest, and he immediately fell asleep.

The only pity is that it was snowing outside, and the temperature instantly went below zero. Ning Caichen stayed up for so long at night, his body had already turned cold, and the quilt was not warm for a while, and the beads were also not working from time to time. "If only there were electric blankets. ”

Where did the electric blanket come from in ancient times, even if there was, he did not have 220 volts of alternating current.

Ning Caichen naturally knew this, so when he got up early the next morning, he wrote and painted.

He is not practicing calligraphy, with these Spring Festival couplets, he feels that he will not use writing for a year. He's designing hot water bottles.

Yes, design. This is in ancient times without plastic, and cloth is even worse. Originally, the fat of marine fish was the best, but this is ancient times, who would go to the deep sea to fish? That's not fishing, that's suicide.

Burning the kang is also a way, but now it's winter, and if you want to make the kang, you have to wait for the weather to warm up and the land to thaw. And this kang can only be enjoyed by Ning's mother, don't forget that he has already entered school, so what he needs more is a warm water bag that can be taken with him.

Maybe use leather, but how to nitrate, how to not leak, this has to ask the merchant.

During the Chinese New Year, businesses will not be open. This is ancient, not modern. The ancients obviously valued the reunion of relatives more than monetary income. Have a bite of a reunion Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together.

Chinese New Year's Eve has passed, and the next time is to greet the New Year. In previous years, Ning Caichen's family did not have any relatives, so no one gave them New Year's greetings, but this year is different, they have one more relative, so Ning Caichen's family did not go anywhere, and honestly waited for someone to come to them to pay New Year's greetings.

Uh, when they went home, the two of them didn't go anywhere.

But the meaning is definitely different. In previous years, there were no relatives, and there was no place to go if you wanted to pay New Year's greetings. In addition, under the snow every year, the sky and the earth are cold, and they have no clothes to cover the cold, so they naturally have to stay at home to survive this cold season.

In the afternoon, Li Gongfu's family really came and brought New Year's gifts. Ning Caichen, as an elder, in addition to the indispensable red envelope, also has some scenes to say.

The young admonished the elderly, no matter how you look at it, you feel awkward, but this is Huaxia, and it has been inherited for thousands of years. The seniors are always the elders, and they do not change with age.

What's more, what Ning Caichen said, Li Gongfu himself did not feel ashamed, but felt very kind.

Ning Caichen's identity, although the villagers all know it, but after all, the scholars are separated from them, and it is far less related to their pity than tolerance.

Ning Caichen's family has a duke to pay New Year's greetings, and the fact that he is related to the duke, they only know it now.

This not only will not damage Ning Caichen's status among the villagers, but will make the villagers look down on Ning Caichen even more. After all, this Ning Caichen will be an official in the future, and it will be in the future, and for the sake of an official, he will not necessarily be in the local area.

The public is different, the public is right in front of him, and it is the kind that must be dealt with.

It's not that Ning Caichen's family is thin and there are no old people, so the village can't wait to give his family a place for the three elders immediately.

The so-called three elders are the township officials who were in charge of education in ancient times. There were three elders in the Warring States Wei period, three elders in Qinzhi Township, three elders in the Han Dynasty, and three elders in the county after the Eastern Han Dynasty, and three elders in the country.

The three elders are similar to the patriarch and the like, and naturally have great power, but the object of the patriarch is a clan, and the three elders are often regional surnames.

Since it is a New Year's greeting, it is natural to talk about the feelings of relatives and friends. Ning's mother recounted the life and survival of the Ning family, and Li Gongfu also talked about his, which had a lot of emotion.

Ning's father died in labor, but Li Gongfu's family looked even more miserable, a plague took the lives of two old people, which seemed to be worse than Ning Caichen's family. Not to mention the identities of the two now, one is a scholar with an infinitely bright future, and the other is a lowly job of a Xu official.

has a good life, and for Li Gongfu, a descendant, Ning's mother is a great pity. "Father-in-law, I often go to the house in the future, and if there is anything, I can discuss it. ”

Xu Jiaorong heard this, and immediately knelt down in front of Ning's mother.

"What did you say? Hurry up, get up!" Mother Ning panicked and got up to help her up.

Xu Jiaorong didn't get up, but said: "Grandma, my father-in-law and I both had parents who died early, and only one younger brother depended on me for his life. My younger brother followed me, and in the future, I will definitely hold on to my cheap business, and I hope that my grandmother can let my uncle transfer his household registration in Chinese. ”

As she spoke, she pulled Xu Xian to kneel down and said, "Hanwen kneel down quickly, beg grandma." ”

Xu Jiaorong's behavior was something Li Gongfu did not expect. Yes, Li Gongfu also has such thoughts, but this matter is in a hurry, so he has to take his time. Coupled with the recent case, it's sad.

The county magistrate didn't want to spend money, and ordered them to solve the case, if it wasn't for the quiet of those monsters in this year, even this year, they probably shouldn't think about it.
