"Gee, how bad is that?

Yuanyuan is a child, and occasionally wins a prize in a competition, so it's not good to make a celebration party, right? ”

Xu Shiyan can understand the feelings of the team leader teacher and the province.

But this is about to be the New Year, if you go back to the provincial capital to have a celebration party, tossing all the way home, I am afraid that it will be a New Year when you get home.

"Don't, don't, Mr. Xu, this is what the leader means.

Please don't shirk Mr. Xu, and go back with us. The team leader said with a pleading face.

"Xu Haiyuan won the championship of this league, which is a glory for our province, and it is a great achievement."

This is the truth, over the years, Ji Province has not cared about junior high schools and high schools, and there have been many times when they have won the first prize in competitions.

But the national winner, this is really never before.

Everyone has said so, what else can Xu Shiyan say? Then I can only agree.

So I discussed it with the team leader, and everyone will return tomorrow.

In this way, the team leader took the students back to pack their things, and took everyone to go shopping in the afternoon.

Xu Shiyan set a table in Donglai and invited the children and teachers in the province to have a meal in the evening.

On the afternoon of the 24th, the group took the return train from the capital to Changchun, and arrived at the provincial capital on the morning of the 25th.

Thanks to Xu Shiyan, he called the leader in advance, everything in the winter is simple, don't be too grand.

Anyway, it wasn't like Xu Shiyan a few times before, wearing red and hanging colors, and he didn't arrange too many people to pick up the station outside the station.

When Xu Shiyan saw this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In this cold winter, if you get a group of students to wait outside the station for an hour, you won't have to freeze to death?

The four of them stayed in the provincial capital for two and a half days, and it was really a celebration of all kinds.

Many leaders of relevant departments attended, and they didn't know if it was against Xu Haiyuan or Xu Shiyan anyway.

In short, no matter who saw Xu Haiyuan, they praised him, and then praised Xu Shiyan and his wife, raised a good son, and so on.

The principals and directors of several key high schools in the province all came to fight for Xu Haiyuan, wanting Xu Haiyuan to study in their school.

The conditions are all old, and the fees are all free.

If you participate in the competition in high school and get a place, the minimum prize is 10,000 yuan, and there is no upper limit. There are also rewards for excellent results in the college entrance examination.

In a word, as long as Xu Haiyuan goes to study, they will agree to any conditions.

At this moment, Xu Shiyan didn't know what to do.

He really wanted to send Xu Haiyuan to the capital to study, even if he borrowed it.

In Xu Shiyan's heart, after all, it is the capital, the place with the highest concentration of resources in the country, and it cannot be compared with other places.

The educational resources in the capital are still very good, the teachers are there, and Xu Haiyuan did not suffer even if he borrowed in the past.

But as soon as these people in the province said it, Xu Shiyan was shaken again.

Provincial key high schools should not be much worse than the capital, right?

The main reason is that there are many benefits of coming to the province to study, regardless of those free tuition and miscellaneous fees, scholarships and the like.

The key is that Xu Haiyuan can directly establish a student status and take the college entrance examination directly in the provincial capital, which is much more convenient than the capital.

Xu Shiyan couldn't make a decision after thinking about it, so he simply told others that after discussing with the child and the child's grandparents, he would contact others.

Anyway, there is still half a year before the high school entrance examination, so I am in a hurry.

Those principals and directors also understand that so many people come to fight for it, and people will definitely not be able to directly agree.

Otherwise, in front of everyone, how embarrassing it would be for other schools.

After going back and discussing it, just contact it privately, and everyone looks good.

By the morning of the 28th, Xu Shiyan really couldn't live anymore, so he hurriedly talked to the leader and planned to go back.

"Okay, it's going to be the New Year soon, let's go home and reunite with my family."

The leader waved his hand with a smile and signaled that Xu Shiyan could go.

"One more thing, you have to go to the capital in the next year, and there is a training that lasts for a month and a half.

This is recommended by the province, and ordinary people do not have this opportunity to learn. Be sure to take advantage of the opportunity and don't be lazy. ”

The leader looked at Xu Shiyan with a smile and said an address.

When Xu Shiyan heard it, he was so young.

It is estimated that it is the best school in the country, and the most desirable place for all cadres who are eager for progress.

To go there for further study, the minimum must be at the county level, and you need to be recommended by the province, which is a very rare opportunity.

Those who have studied and trained there will not have a bad future in the future.

"Rest assured, I will study hard and definitely live up to the expectations of the leader." Xu Shiyan assured with a serious face.

"Well, knowing you're a reliable guy, so be it.

Go back and bring a good child to your parents, it's almost the New Year, even if I give the second elder a New Year's greeting in advance. The leader waved his hand and let Xu Shiyan go.

With that, the four of them got on the train and walked back.

When I arrived at the Hunjiang River, it was four or five o'clock in the morning on the 29th.

Xu Shiyan thought there was nothing wrong, just wait for breakfast and then take the car back to Songjiang River.

As a result, as soon as I got off the train, I didn't wait to get out of the train station, and I was taken away by the station attendant.

Guan Enxue had already arranged for someone to wait at the station, just because he was afraid that Xu Shiyan would sneak away with his wife and children.

No way, spent another day in the city.

The city also prepared a very grand celebration and commendation meeting, and also gave Xu Haiyuan prizes and bonuses.

In the evening, a celebration banquet was prepared, and even Guan Enxue and others attended.

"You kid, if I don't arrange someone in advance and intercept you at the station, you will definitely lead your daughter-in-law and son and run away."

As soon as Guan Enxue saw Xu Shiyan, he complained.

"It's still like a god to manage the secretary.

The main reason is that the Chinese New Year is approaching, and I want to go home early. ”

What can Xu Shiyan say? Said that he was afraid that the workers in the city would mobilize the crowd to organize those celebrations? How can you talk like that?

I can only excuse myself for being homesick and go over.

"Well, seeing the Chinese New Year, it's understandable that I'm homesick.

I won't keep you much here, and after the celebration banquet is over tonight, I will arrange for someone to send you home directly tomorrow morning. ”

Guan Enxue nodded. Going out to the capital to compete, this walk is half a month, and it is normal to be homesick.

"No, no, the road is slippery in winter, and it is more troublesome to drive. We'll just take the train tomorrow morning, and we'll be home at one o'clock in the afternoon. ”

Xu Shiyan hurriedly waved his hand and walked from Hunjiang River to Songjiang River, and the driving was basically the same as the route of the train.

If you can't run fast in winter, it's better to take the train safely.

Xu Shiyan insisted, Guan Enxue didn't fight him, and it happened that other people came to say hello, so the topic was diverted.

Many leaders in the city attended the celebration banquet, and the education mouth came the most.

Xu Shiyan also took the opportunity to discuss the matter of this high school with the leaders of the Education Bureau.

"Oh, Mr. Xu looks like a layman.

In terms of grades, the key high schools in our three eastern provinces are no worse than those in the capital.

If you want me to say, Mr. Xu shouldn't bother with that, going all the way to the capital to study, or borrowing it, it's not cost-effective. ”

When the director heard this, he laughed.

"The High School Attached to Northeast Normal University in our provincial capital is a well-known good school.

If you listen to me, let your child go there and keep it.

Besides, this side is close to home, and the student status falls directly, how convenient it is. ”

Xu Shiyan hasn't studied for a few years in total, and Donggang is a very remote place, so he can't usually get in touch with it, how can he understand this?

Originally, Xu Shiyan also planned to go back and find someone who understood, ask carefully, and make a decision after inquiring clearly.

Listening to what the director said at this moment, Xu Shiyan understood.

After making trouble for a long time, he almost gave up his son to send his son to the capital.

"Hey young, thank you Feng Ju for your guidance, you said I don't understand any of this, that's really for nothing.

Thanks to meeting Feng Ju today, thank you very much, come, I salute Feng Ju with a cup. ”

This is also a great help, of course Xu Shiyan wants to express his gratitude and hurry up to toast.

The celebration banquet was very lively, and it didn't end until more than nine o'clock.

Xu Shiyan and others stayed in the hotel, rested for a night, got up early the next morning, had a casual meal and went straight to the train station.

By the time the train arrived at Songjianghe Station, it was already January 30th, and it was more than one o'clock in the afternoon of the 26th day of the lunar month.

"Oh my God, this trip is longer than the last time.

If this is delayed a little longer, we will come back directly to the Chinese New Year's Eve. ”

When the train arrived at the station, Xu Shiyan sighed with emotion while walking down with his luggage.

Su Anying and Xu Haiyuan behind him were all happy, and the chemistry teacher over there couldn't hold back his laughter.

The group just got off the bus, walked out along the crowd, and went straight to the exit of the station.

Before they could find out, they heard someone shouting to them.

Take a closer look, good guys, Xu Haibo, Xu Haitao, Xu Jinfeng, Xu Jinxiu, these nephews and nieces in the family are all wearing thick and solid clothes, waving inside outside the station.

Looking behind the children, Xu Shi'an and Xu Shixiang were also there.

"Young, second brother, fifth brother, why are you all here at the station? Came to pick us up? ”

When Xu Shiyan saw his brothers and nephews coming to pick him up at the station, he suddenly felt warm in his heart.

"That's a must, isn't this here to welcome our champion?

Let me tell you, since our father knew that Yuan Yuan won the award, he was so happy that he didn't know what to do.

Give us a couple of calls and let's all come back, we have to give Yuanyuan a welcome ceremony. ”

Xu Shi'an stepped forward with a smile and picked up Xu Haiyuan.

"It has to be my eldest nephew, it's really amazing, promising, the second uncle is the rarest of you."

Don't look at Xu Haiyuan, he is not short, but in front of Xu Shi'an, who is more than 1.8 meters tall and has great strength, he still doesn't look at it enough, and he is easily picked up.

Xu Haiyuan is about to be fifteen years old, and he is still being picked up, which is actually quite terrifying.

"Second uncle, you let me down first."

There were many people outside the station, Xu Haiyuan's face was full of embarrassment, and he couldn't shout loudly, so he could only speak weakly.

"Hahaha, my eldest nephew is embarrassed. Okay, put you down. ”

Xu Shi'an laughed, then put Xu Haiyuan down and patted his nephew on the shoulder.

"Good boy, I don't know who to follow this smart man, in the life of the old Xu family, I really pointed to you to serve the food.

Let's go, get in the car and go home, your grandfather and your grandmother are waiting at home.

To celebrate your win, a pig was killed in the house today. ”

When Xu Shiyan and the others were returning from the capital, they called home and told them that they would be home on the 29th or 30th at the latest.

After Xu Chenghou received the call, he called Xu Shixian and them to discuss, so that his sons must all come back and celebrate together.

There were no pigs at home, so Xu Chenghou specially bought a pig from someone and made a plan to kill the pig today.

It doesn't matter if Xu Shiyan comes back on the twenty-ninth or the thirties, the pigs have to be killed.

The Xu Shixian brothers discussed, each asked for leave, and came back yesterday afternoon.

Early this morning, the big fat pig was tied up and sent to the guillotine.

At this time, it has become a fragrant stew, blood sausage, and big bones in the pot.

"Oh my God, our dad can do it."

When Xu Shiyan heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head, this old man, the older he gets, the more he can toss.

"Let's go, third brother, let's get in the car first and go home." Xu Shixiang greeted the big guys with a smile and hurried to get in the car.

Xu Shixiang drove the unit's car, Xu Shi'an drove the farm, and Xu Haibo drove Su Anying's car at home.

In this way, the three cars left the railway station and went straight to Donggang.

When they arrived at the martyr's tomb, Xu Shiyan and others got out of the car, and wanted to drag the chemistry teacher to their home to be lively together.

Where is the chemistry teacher? This is the reunion of the Xu family, and he is embarrassed to participate as an outsider.

There was no way, so Xu Shiyan asked Xu Haibo to drive and send the chemistry teacher home.

He also said that he was busy with his work, and he would visit others, and he must thank the teacher.

Everyone carried their luggage and entered the gate with a smile.

As soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw the big iron pot in the courtyard.

At this moment, there is still a fire burning under the iron pot, and the pot is steaming, and the aroma of stewed meat wafts out with the heat.

This taste, that's old-fashioned.

"Oh, it's the third uncle and the third aunt who are back. Grandpa, grandma, my third uncle and three aunts, and Yuanyuan are back. ”

Xu Haibin is leading Xu Haiyang and Xu Haiqing to play in the yard.

Seeing Xu Shiyan and others entering the door, Xu Haibin ran into the house, shouting as he ran.

As soon as the people in the house heard the movement, a large area came out of the hulala.

Xu Shixian, Xu Shide, Xue Xiulin, Wei Mingrong, Su Anfang, Li Zongliang, Su Anhua and others all came out of the house and stepped forward with smiles on their faces.

"Oh, my eldest nephew is back, this kid is really promising, it's too rare.

Quick, hurry into the house, your grandfather and your grandmother are talking all day long. ”

Xue Xiulin stepped forward and grabbed Xu Haiyuan's hand, and the others also came around, and just hugged Xu Haiyuan into the house.

Xu Chenghou, Zhou Guilan, Chu Xuanhuai, Su Weizhong, Han Cai'e, and the five old men are all sitting on the kang in the east house.

To be honest, they couldn't sit still at Xu Haibin's voice just now, and they were looking out at the outhouse with their heads sticking out.

Seeing Xu Haiyuan coming in accompanied by his aunt, these old men and ladies were also very happy, not to mention how happy they were.

"Grandpa, grandma, grandpa, grandpa, grandma." Xu Haiyuan stepped forward with a smile and greeted the five elders.

"Hey, hey. Hurry up and sit on the kang, it's cold outside, and it's frozen when you come back by train all the way, right? The upper kang head is warm. ”

Zhou Guilan hurriedly moved to the kang, gave way to her grandson, and beckoned Xu Haiyuan to sit beside her.

"Hurry up, take off your shoes and go to the kang, it's warm on the kang."

"Milk, it's okay today, it's not too cold, and it's going to be on the train."

How can Xu Haiyuan really take off his shoes and get on the kang? So next to Zhou Guilan, he sat on the edge of the kang.

Xu Haiyuan said as he took out the award certificate from his backpack.

"Grandpa, grandma, grandpa, grandpa, grandma, this is my award certificate."

The certificate of the national competition is definitely different from that of the provincial competition, whether it is printed or produced, it is more exquisite.

The certificate shell of the big red flannel, with a few big characters gilded on it, looks festive and atmospheric.

Xu Chenghou took turns holding the certificate and looking at it, it was really indescribable joy.

"Good boy, the ancestors of the old Xu family are eight generations, and there has never been such a good child as you.

If this is put aside, is it considered a champion or something? Can you be an official, right? ”

Xu Chenghou held the certificate, couldn't put it down, looked at it over and over again, and was still chattering in his mouth.

"Dad, it doesn't seem to be like that.

Yuanyuan won the chemistry competition, if it was the Qing Dynasty, it should be the Bagu Wen.

However, our level is really high, and I feel that if we put aside the ancient times, it will be quite powerful.

will definitely be able to enter the jinshi, and if you can't keep it together, you can still be a marquis or something, then it will really be glorious to your ancestors. ”

Xu Shide was beside him, pondered for a while, and explained to his father.

"I don't care if it's eight shares or nine shares, I know that our family has a steady stream of income."

Xu Chenghou waved his hand, he didn't bother to care about what kind of text.

Anyway, he knows a little bit, in the old Xu family's life, there are children who are promising.

The Xu Shiyan brothers looked at each other and smiled, don't fight with the old man at this time, say whatever you like.

"Yes, what my father said is reasonable, the children of our younger generation are quite good.

You see Xiaobo at Agricultural University, Jin Feng at Bank University, followed by Xiaotao and Xiuxiu, I look good.

Source change app】

Pingping, Jingwen, and Jingyi are also very good at learning. In the future, we will definitely be able to come out with several college students. ”

Xu Shiyan sat on the edge of the kang, looked at the nephews and nieces in the house, and said with joy.

"Well, that's good, your mother and I don't look forward to anything else in this life, we just hope that our old Xu family will be prosperous and future generations will be prosperous."

Xu Chenghou's gaze swept over the children and grandchildren, and he nodded very gratifyingly.

"Alright, old man, stop talking nonsense.

The third child has just arrived home, they must be hungry, let's hurry up and eat, and then chatter after eating. ”

Zhou Guilan saw that her daughter-in-law and granddaughters had already packed up the meals, and hurriedly beckoned the big guys to eat.

Xu Shiyan: They ate in the Hunjiang River in the morning.

At this time, the car is too crowded, it is good to have a seat, where is there time to eat?

It's two o'clock, can you not be hungry?

Especially the aroma of stewed sauerkraut all over the house, I feel even more hungry.

In order to celebrate Xu Haiyuan's award, today the family killed a big fat pig of nearly 300 catties.

So this meal, that has to be an authentic pig-killing dish.

Sauerkraut, white meat, blood sausage, sauce big bones, deboned meat, pork heart, pork liver, pig tongue platter, fried meatballs, sweet and sour pork ribs, pork ears mixed with cucumbers, square meat dipped in garlic sauce.

Don't look at only these dishes, but the amount of dishes is not small, and several of them are directly served in the basin.

Especially the square meat, the choice is all three-layered loin meat with skin.

The palm-sized square meat is cooked in a pot and cooled, then cut into slices with a knife.

Mash the garlic cloves and put some soy sauce in them, which is what Northeast people often call garlic sauce.

A large piece of cooked meat trembles, dipped in a little garlic sauce, not firewood or greasy, the meat is fragrant, and the storage is still eating, and I can't stop at all.

Su Weizhong and his wife, Su Anfang, Su Anhua and others all came, and the three tables were full.

The five old men are all on the kang table, Xu Haiyuan is the protagonist today, and of course he is also on the kang.

Xu Shiyan and Su Anying were also on the kang table with their sons.

The children of Su Anfang and Su Anhua are small, and it just so happens that Su Weizhong and Han Cai'e hugged one and coaxed them to eat.

On the twenty-sixth day of the lunar month, there are only a few days left before the New Year.

Xu Shixian and the others all came back directly from a long vacation, planning to go back after the New Year here.

In the spring of this year, Xu Shixian and Xu Shixiang both bought buildings in the county.

This living building is much more convenient than a bungalow, as soon as the door is locked, there is no need to worry about burning fires all day long.

Xu Shide's family lives in the public housing of the Beigang Town Government, and there is no need to worry about having someone take care of them anyway.

The brothers have all discussed, and they all stayed here to celebrate the New Year at their parents' place.

After all, Xu Chenghou and his family are getting older and older, so they should accompany the elderly more during the New Year's holidays, and don't leave regrets in the future.

The children and grandchildren all stayed for the New Year, and the happiest thing was Xu Chenghou and his wife.

Killed a pig during the Chinese New Year this year, plus the benefits of Xu Shiyan's unit, Guo Shouye, Yang Junxian, Huang Shengli and other brothers and buddies sent things, there is nothing missing at home.

Since the twenty-seventh day of the lunar month, the old lady has led her daughter-in-law and granddaughters to prepare things for the New Year.

Braised meat in a large pot, sauce elbows, pig's trotters, boiled skin jelly.

In the morning, two large pots of noodles are made, and at noon, steamed jujube steamed buns, hair cakes, and steamed buns and flower rolls are sugar-triangled.

Zhou Guilan can make good pasta, jujube steamed buns can make various colors, and can also make goldfish, hedgehogs, rabbits and other steamed buns.

In the sugar triangle, white sugar is mixed with walnut kernels, peanut kernels, and sesame seeds, and a bite is called a fragrant and sweet.

The cake is fermented with rice flour and white flour, and topped with chopped dates, honey peas, raisins, etc.

The steamed cake is soft and sweet, not to mention how delicious.

Not only that, Zhou Guilan also brought out the Jiang rice, zongzi leaves, and dates that had been prepared in advance, and led her daughters-in-law to wrap the zongzi.

In the Northeast dialect pronunciation, zongzi is actually called earning, Zhou Guilan put money and jujube in the zongzi, which is called making money early, which means very good.

After finishing the main food, fry some snacks.

Put a big spoon on the stove, croquettes, dried fruits, crispy little twist flowers, rings, mushrooms, eggplant boxes, meat segments, etc.

Anyway, the smell in the kitchen has never stopped, so the children are guarding outside the kitchen one by one, staring at what is delicious inside.

On the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, Su Anfen and Ji Tongzhong, who were far away in Yangcheng, as well as Su Anzhen and Nan Zhendong in the capital, all rushed back.

No one expected that on the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, Han Liwei and Xu Shiqin also came back with their children.

Last year, the two of them spent the New Year in Yangcheng, so they plan to come back this year.

But Han Liwei was temporarily delayed for a few days, and he didn't arrive home until the twenty-ninth of the lunar month.

Chinese New Year's Eve Chinese New Year's Eve, don't mention how lively it is on the Xu family's side.

As soon as he got up in the morning, Xu Haibo and Xu Haitao led his younger brothers to erect lantern poles, hang string lights, and paste couplets of blessing characters outside.

The boys were mischievous and working, and from time to time they would light a firecracker and throw it away.

The firecrackers exploded, and a few small ones were there clapping their hands happily.

The girls were not idle, sticking window grilles in the house and helping with the cooking.

At the reunion dinner at three o'clock in the afternoon, there were more than 20 people in a big family, not to mention how lively the scene was, Xu Chenghou and Zhou Guilan were laughing from morning to night, and their mouths couldn't close.

In the evening, the women make dumplings, the men get together to laugh and chat, and the children play with flowers.

Xu Haibo led his younger brothers to find the glass cans and bottles, wrapped them around the mouth of the bottles with iron wires, made a handle on them, and carried them with a small stick.

Then a small wooden block is nailed, and the candle sits on the small wooden block and is placed on the bottom of the can and bottle, which becomes a simple lantern.

A few small people have a lantern in their hands, and then they are neatly dressed, covered tightly, and go out to play with the lantern.
