After a drink, how to get home, when he woke up in the morning, Lu Dong didn't stare at him after thinking for a long time, he only felt his head covered, and after asking Liu Qin, he realized that he had drunk a broken piece and was sent back by several people in three rounds. He didn't believe it, but he couldn't remember it.

Listening to the movement outside, it should be that my mother-in-law's breakfast has been prepared. Lu Dong said in his heart, maybe it would be time to shout for dinner in a while, so he was ready to get up. But as soon as he sat up, his head was dizzy again. Lu Dong was worried about the wine, so he simply lay on the bed again, resisted and didn't dare to move, and didn't even dare to eat breakfast. The good thing is that for a few days in a row, Lu Dong has almost run around with Liuqin's own family, and he has already become familiar with the scene, so he doesn't need to run around anymore.

Everyone is busy for the festival, but Lu Dong can only consume it, waiting for the strength of the wine to pass. It's easy to get to the afternoon, the wine is slowing down, and he wants to help, but he doesn't need him anymore. The dumplings are already plated, and making dumplings is the work of the women, and their white hands tend to be particularly dexterous at this time. Because Liu Jinqiang was in the team headquarters, there were occasional people in the team who came to the house, and the hospitality often fell on Liu Zheng's head, so he practiced the unique skill of preparing cold dishes, and it was even more useful to catch up with this time. Lu Dong knew this advantage of Liu Zheng, and he had tasted his craft many times, so he simply withdrew at this time and stopped helping, and went to talk to his father-in-law while leading the two children to play.

The sound of artillery came from time to time, and as the frequency became denser and denser, the sky became darker, and it was time for the dumplings to come out of the pot. Seeing the dumplings fished out, Liuqin's mother took a bowl first, brought the soup and water to the courtyard, and after a burst of prayer, as usual, the young and the young were given priority, and the young people were second, and the bowls were picked up in turn.

On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve in the countryside, killing time is called staying up, and in order to survive this long night, people will either continue to make dumplings on the morning of the new year after eating dumplings or gather at a wine stall or card stall to spend time while cooking. The same is naturally true of the Liuqin family. After eating, the women prepared dumplings again, and the men sat around the wine stall talking and eating, and they couldn't help but talk about Liuqin and the children during the conversation. Maybe it was the emotional cultivation in the past few days, Liuqin's father thought that the child would leave again in a few days, and he was reluctant, so he wanted to stay for a few more days, so he went to ask Lu Dong for advice: "When are you going to leave after the holiday?" ”

"The ninth day of the first month." Lu Dongdao.

"That's too short! I've just been back for a few days, and I haven't stabilized my mind yet, so I'm going to go back, can I stay at home for a few more days? Peng Peng just played maturation at home! There was a lot of reluctance in Liuqin's father's words.

"Stay longer? I'm afraid I can't, I left early when I came back, I didn't invite more, and now I will return late, and I am afraid that I will not want to. Otherwise, look at Liu Qin here, if there is nothing important at home, let her take the child to stay for a few days! Lu Dongdao.

When Liu Qin heard this, she said: "There is nothing important at home, that is, my grandfather is not in good health, my father-in-law is serving there, and my mother-in-law is left alone at home, although there are two sisters, they are also at work, and they can't help, as long as my mother-in-law has nothing to do there, I just stay for a few more days and it will not be affected." ”

"It's okay for our mother to do it, even if you lead Peng Peng to help her, otherwise, you can stop at home for a few more days, and I'll send you a telegram if there's anything." Lu Dong took the lead.

"Zhong, when I leave, I will also send you a telegram in advance, and you will pick up the children and us at the station." Liuqin said.

"Okay." Lu Dong readily agreed.

The family said yes, they were very happy, everyone gathered around the stove, wrapped dumplings, drank wine, talked, and unknowingly survived the Chinese New Year's Eve. At this time, the two children couldn't stay up and sleep.

If you go to bed early, you will wake up early. In the early hours of the morning, as soon as the firecrackers went off outside, Peng Peng woke up. In the bed, he was thinking about his new clothes, and he was eager to put them on immediately. Hearing the sound of firecrackers outside, Peng Peng sat up bare-chested. Liu Qin was afraid that he would freeze, so she hurriedly pressed him to lie down. Unexpectedly, just lying down for a while, Peng Peng sat up again, shouting to get up. Lu Dong couldn't be disturbed by him, so he asked Liu Qin to put on new clothes for him. Now it's okay, Peng Peng, who is wearing new clothes, flutters on the bed. There was a lot of fun here, and Liuqin's nephew got up and came over to play with Peng Peng. Only then did the two know that it was dawn outside. After listening carefully, I realized that my parents had already gotten up, and they were preparing to make dumplings, shouting to get up.

So, Lu Dong and Liu Qin also got up. After washing, the dumplings are out of the pot and prayers begin, while firecrackers are set off and the new year begins. New Year's money is indispensable. The children were happy and ran around playing. Adults are festive, meet and say auspicious words, and worship each other.

Lu Dong and Liu Qin were idle, standing at the door gossiping with their neighbors while watching a few children play.

In the middle of the morning, suddenly, there was a sound of gongs and drums on the main street. The rapid beat of the drums attracts children as well as adults. People all go to the sound of the sound, and from afar I see one of the four people ringing two people ticking, with an old man beating the drum, only to see the old man's feet and heels with the hands of the drum to wave together, the rapid drum with the drum to send out a stirring vibration, so that the earth is shocked, but also make the festive atmosphere of the festival more intense. People gathered around and discussed, and they didn't dare to get too far ahead of the impact of the sound. During this period, a few people who had the courage and felt that they would have itchy hands twice would also take advantage of the break to dance twice. Lu Dong and Liu Qin stared at Peng Peng, lest he run away, so they hugged him to watch the excitement, and only after listening to the discussion did they know that it was the gongs and drums bought by the village-run factory, and a few people on the street who loved to play tricks and knew how to beat the drum came to cheer everyone for the festival. After being lively for a while, the gong and drum team closed the stall and pulled away to change places. The two saw that it was almost time to cook, so they led the child home.

At home, Liu Zheng is busy in the kitchen. Lu Dong looked at it and hurried over to help. Liu Zheng said: "Isn't it lively? ”

Lu Dongdao: "Don't say it, when this drum is beaten, the atmosphere is different." ”

"Yes, in recent years, there have been small businesses in each village, some are individuals, some are in the team, and when they have money, some people pay attention to the quality of life." Liu Zheng said.

As soon as she said these two sentences, Liuqin's sister-in-law came in from outside, saw Lu Dong, and said, "Lu Dong, you just went to see the excitement, right?" ”

"Oh, what's wrong?"

"Then you should be careful tomorrow, a group of young people at the door just saw that they were going to slander you, I said where there is a slander on the first day of the new year, as soon as they heard about it, they changed it to tomorrow, it seems that you have been registered." Liuqin's sister-in-law said.

"No, it won't! I've been married for a few years, and I don't come back easily, and most of the young people at this door don't know me, how can they slander me? ”

"Don't believe it, they were still talking about you just now, saying that you have been hiding for several years, and they won't let you run away anymore." Liuqin's sister-in-law said.

"And what can they do to me? The big deal is two boxes of cigarettes! ”

"Don't think too easily, now that people have high incomes, this custom has changed, but it's not a matter of a box of cigarettes and a few pieces of candy when you are at home, I remember that they made several movies last year, and I guess it won't be bad this year." Liu Zheng interjected.

When Lu Dong heard this, he said: "Then this custom, no one can care about it, just walk and talk, you can't hide out anymore." ”

"Hide! Definitely not, you have to hide for five miles. Liuqin's sister-in-law said.

"That's it, since I can't hide, I'll be generous enough to give him the money, saving him a lot of shame, but it can't be too easy, isn't this interesting? You have to let them move hard, or the tide will rise. Lu Dongdao.

"But too."

Everyone was talking, knowing that this was an annual custom, and no one took it seriously, only Lu Dong occasionally thought about it.

Sure enough, by the next morning, a group of young people had gathered at the intersection of the street early in the morning, looking at the people who had come here to hang out with relatives. In such a situation, and at such a time, the discerning people knew their purpose at a glance, so in addition to some people who couldn't get oil and water to go here, those who had suffered the losses of the past years and were clever walked around secretly, they couldn't help but be a little anxious, so they changed their thinking, and prepared to start going door to door to find those who were hiding in the past. There are many people, and I don't know who first named Lu Dong's name, so Lu Dong came first. Everyone coaxed, the seniors walked to the front, and the seniors walked to the back, mighty. During the Spring Festival, there is not much entertainment in the countryside, and when you meet this, you will follow the coaxing, you can pick up some misses, and if you can't pick it up, you can watch the excitement. Walking and walking, the formation is getting bigger and bigger.

After a while, he came to the door of Liuqin's house. Because there were too many people and there was no consensus of opinion, a group of people elected Xiao Ding as the leader. He said: "There are too many of us, everyone goes in, the courtyard will definitely not be able to stand, let's go in less, but everyone rest assured, it's the same whether you enter or not, the purpose is the same as last year, that is, to act in a movie; If you give cigarettes and sugar, rest assured, if there are more, everyone will have a share; Less, let's come out and scatter it, whoever picks it up is who's! Do you say it's fair or not? ”

When everyone heard that, they all said, "Fair! ”

So, Xiao Ding led the seven or eight people in front of him into the courtyard. Liuqin's father was in the courtyard. When he saw that they were all people in front of the neighbors, he knew what they meant, so he invited them into the house to sit. Xiao Ding said respectfully: "Master, it's time to greet you!" ”

"Good! Good! Come in and sit down! ”

"Master, I won't go in, will I? There are so many people, I can't sit down when I go in, so you better let my uncle come out! Xiao Ding said with a smile.

"Medium!" When Liuqin's father heard this, he was about to call Lu Dong, but who knew that Lu Dong heard it in the house, and walked out with a cigarette in his hand without waiting for the shout. When Xiao Ding saw it, he took it directly and put it in his pocket, and then said: "Don't send it, uncle, there are many people who come today, and you can't send it, I'll keep it for you first!" As he spoke, he went over and grabbed Lu Dong and said, "Uncle, do you know what our rules are?" ”

"I'm from here, too, can you know?"

"Okay, just know, then I'll tell you, everyone was discussing it outside just now, you don't want much this year, you can charter the movie yourself."

"How much does a movie cost?"

"Forty bucks."

"Who said forty dollars? Everyone has a show for fifteen yuan! Liuqin's sister-in-law heard about it on the side, and immediately argued.

"You don't know, you can only take one piece for fifteen yuan, and it's not a combat film, who will watch it?" Someone in the crowd answered.

"Can't you have to worry too much? I remember that in previous years, there were four or five people who played a show, and if you wanted so much, he had to have miles! Liuqin's sister-in-law said.

"What do you know about a woman's family? I didn't follow it, who did you listen to? Xiao Ding said.

"yes, everybody knows anyway, who else can you hide?" Liuqin's sister-in-law deliberately made trouble.

"You're talking nonsense, there's nothing like that." Xiao Ding said.

"Don't tell her, just delay our time, let Liuqin and her man pay for it." Someone in the crowd proposed.

When Xiao Ding heard that, he went to Lu Dong again. Lu Dong was too much, so he argued again. Xiao Ding said: "You haven't come back for three or four years, and you won't suffer a loss." ”

"How can this be accumulated, there will be no such store in this village." Lu Dongdao. Liu Qin and her sister-in-law also helped argue.

Everyone shouted and quarreled for a while, but they couldn't agree on their opinions, so someone proposed to pull Lu Dong out. So, a group of people foolishly pushed and dragged Lu Dong to the street. The people outside were waiting to see the excitement, and when the people inside came out, they started to make a commotion. Lu Dong also did this in his hometown, and he knew in his heart that he couldn't make a fuss, and he wanted to join in the fun to see what they could do, so he played a scoundrel and let them show it.

As soon as everyone saw it, they came over and pushed Lu Dong in a circle, thinking about making him dizzy. Lu Dong turned around twice, and knew that he couldn't turn anymore, so he squatted on the ground. So everyone proposed that they were going to carry him and ram him. Lu Dong said in his heart, tamping is not a good thing, not to mention the soil, in the end you have to dig out some, so he was ready to stop and talk about the conditions, at this moment, Haihai took the child and Guizhi to ride out of the street corner, and when he saw everyone, it was too late to retreat. As soon as everyone saw it, some people ran over and grabbed the bicycle of the sea water and dragged him off.

Many of these people had kissed Gui Zhi and Liu Qin when they got married, and knowing that the relationship between the two of them was good, they pulled him over with Lu Dong and let the two of them act in a movie together.

When Lu Dong saw it, he couldn't help laughing. Seeing this, Haishui grimaced and shook his head helplessly: "There's really no way, I can get together with you." After speaking, he turned his head to a few people who were dragging him: "He hasn't come back for several years, you guys are more wrongful to him, and I won't get involved in your affairs." ”

Xiao Ding said: "It's okay if you don't mix, he will give twenty, and you will give ten, otherwise they will be tamped." ”

Having said this, Lu Dong knew that it was impossible to be less, and besides, it had been making trouble for a long time, and it would not give a good impression if he continued to make trouble, so he gladly accepted it. Haihai was still unwilling, but seeing that Lu Dong agreed, he had to agree.

He took out the money twice and sent the crowd away. The four of them stood and talked for a while, and Liu Qin told Gui Zhi that he would not leave after the New Year. Gui Zhi rarely had such an opportunity to get along with Liuqin, and he couldn't help but be happy, and he wanted to talk about it again but felt that it was too late, so he made an appointment with Liuqin to turn around and talk about it, and then he said goodbye and went home for dinner.

After this uproar, Lu Dong seemed to have voted for his name in Liuzhuang and became a member of the village. He became more and more familiar with everyone, and the living space became wider and wider, naturally, the next life was lively and comfortable, but after all, the time was limited, and the date of returning to the city soon came. He couldn't delay any longer, so he had to say goodbye to his family and friends and return to Xijing alone.
