"Yes! My young lady is fine, although she can only go home to visit relatives for half a day and stay for one night, compared to those who can't go back to visit relatives, I feel quite happy. ”

When the plum blossom asked the uncle, he answered very honestly.

"Well, it seems that you have come to the bitter end, has the master ordered your mother-in-law's house for you?"

Uncle has also heard about Meihua's previous incident in the mountains, he was a guest in the county seat, and the daughter of the Jian family has not come back to visit the family for many years, and many people will be curious.

As soon as I inquired in the county seat, I knew that the daughter of the family followed the young lady up the mountain and went for several years.

"Uncle, why are you asking me about this again? Can't you leave it unasked? ”

"Hehe, the male should get married, the female should get married, it's normal for the elders to see you and ask, haven't you ever thought about getting married?"

"Uncle, what's the good of getting married? I really haven't thought about getting married, so I'll talk about it later! ”

"Is it your master's family that won't let you get married?"

"Of course not, our young lady is fine, but it's not time for me to get married."

"Girl, you're 16, aren't you? It's not the time to get married, no matter how old you are, people of the same age as you can buy soy sauce, and a good young man has also been picked by others, and there is no such young man in the same year as you! ”

"It doesn't matter, it's a big deal not to marry."

They chatted and chatted and returned to the village, where the uncle stopped the ox cart at the village gate.

Meihua paid the uncle's car money.

The uncle held the money in his hand and said with a smile:

"Girl, I have time to come to my uncle's house to play."

"Oh......" Meihua happily agreed, but did not think about really going to visit other people's homes, the uncle and their family are different, a surname, the same surname in this afternoon half a day, to visit is not enough.

I didn't follow my mother to my grandmother's house for many years, nor did I follow my grandmother to my grandmother's house.

Tomorrow, the second day of the Lunar New Year, I could have followed the elders to pay New Year's greetings.

It's just that she has become a big girl now, and it's not good to follow her elders to pay New Year's greetings.

I don't have time to go to New Year's greetings tomorrow.

Plum Blossom was walking home with a big bag in her hand and a bag in her other hand, and when she saw the children of the same village, they looked at her with their eyes open, feeling very curious, familiar and strange.

I saw the elders of the village again, many people haven't seen her for many years, and when they saw her at once, they just thought it was a beautiful girl from somewhere.

They all watched with curiosity wide open.

Meihua has not seen these elders for many years, and many elders do not know who and who they are.

Under the gaze of others, she walked briskly with her head down, walked through the fish pond, and came to her door.

She stopped in front of the door, and the gate of the courtyard was pasted with the same door painting as many people's homes, Heavenly Soldiers.

Banners and couplets written on red paper, plum blossoms can't recognize the words on the door, these years in the family temple, can not recognize and write.

Except for learning to calculate as a child, she is a person who does not know many words.

That time I followed the young lady to Chancheng, and saw the young ladies writing, and the writing was so beautiful, which made her envious.

In the mind of the plum blossom, people who can write are talented, and they admire Miss very much, who can study medicine in the days when they are sick, and can dream of gods in their dreams, and they have learned to write.

How could she not be so lucky?

The fairy gave her a dream so that she could learn to write, and now she can also help the young lady write.

It's a pity that she doesn't have that kind of talent, and her writing is like chicken feet, and she can't write as well as Begonia.

Meihua thought silently for a while, and heard a very lively sound in the yard, not just their family at home.

She remembered the small workshop that her family had opened, and perhaps some of the people in the family now were the same people who helped the family.

"I'm back!"

Meihua walked into the yard, and sure enough, she saw five or six ladies about the same age as her mother in the yard, and they were washing sweet potatoes and grinding sweet potato flour.

Her mother was also helping, and her mother heard her daughter's voice and looked happily in the direction of the door.

Some of the other ladies heard the sound and looked at each other, and when they saw a plum blossom that was more beautiful than the most beautiful girl in the village, with a white little face and a ruddy face, and a better dress on her head than the girl in the village.

The dress was even better than that of the women in the village, and they all heard that the eldest girl of the family had brought their family the business of opening a workshop.

In the past, many people laughed at the family that sold their daughters and their daughters couldn't come to visit their relatives.

But they didn't expect that one day, they would only have envy, and the daughter they sold would bring so many benefits to the family.

Let these people who don't sell women be envious and jealous, in order to make a little money, they also come here to do this work during the New Year to make some money.

There was no rest on the first day of the new year, and the main family gave them double the salary, and they also worked here willingly.

Some of the people who have been working here for more than ten days have already learned this job.

But they didn't do it boldly, one reason is that what they did was not marketable.

The other is that they don't dare to do this business, and they feel that the process is very troublesome when they do a little bit at home for them to eat at home.

"Yo, the eldest girl is back, and she came back to visit relatives on the first day of the new year."

"The daughter of the Jian family is really smart, I still don't believe it when I hear others say it before, hehe."

"Big girl, this big bag is back to visit relatives, sister-in-law Jane, your family is going to get rich again."

One after another the eldest lady was envious and jealous, looking at the plum blossom dressed up, and the things in the plum blossom's hand.

"Hello ladies and daughters, happy new year ladies and mothers, I'm back."

Plum blossoms first to others New Year's language.

Then he walked quickly to his mother's side and took his mother's hand with a smile.

"Coming back? Come into the house and warm up, the house is cooking, and tell your grandma to cook more. ”

Jane's mother washed her hands and checked them in her apron, stood up, and turned to go into the kitchen.

"Grandma, daughter-in-law, the big girl is back, you are going to cook a little more."

Jane's mother said a word at the kitchen door.

"Oh......"

Meihua glanced at the ladies present suspiciously, don't these ladies eat it?

But that's right, their homes are so close, let them work here, and if they don't have to eat with a little more salary, they don't have to cook for them so much trouble at home.

Cooking is also a technical job, many people cook at home to save fuel and fuel, but it is different to greet outsiders to eat, you must eat a little, and there must be meat in the dish.

The family can eat casually, maybe the green vegetables and radishes are also a meal.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, there is a custom, that is, the leftover dishes eaten on the 30th night of the New Year, fried and eaten today.

Today it is forbidden to kill, and there are many people who fast, and after the first day of the new year, there is no such taboo on the second day of the new year.

Today, you can't sweep the floor with a broom, or chop vegetables with a knife, but who doesn't cook?

For example, today they are in the workshop, and it is not the first day of the new year to work.

"Let's go inside and have tea." Jane's mother finished explaining the kitchen and took her daughter into the living room.
