The next day.

At breakfast, Xia Youzhi felt that the three women in the family were obviously wrong when they looked at him.

Explore...... Dodging again.

"Mom, why do you keep staring at me?"

When Xia Mu peeked over again, Xia Youzhi put down his chopsticks and looked at Xia Mu with a frown.

Xia Mu didn't expect to be caught by Xia Youzhi coldly.

She was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Zhang Xiuxia and Zhang Qingqing, who were pretending to eat on the side.

Seeing this, Xia Youzhi glanced at the two of them.

It's greasy!

Early in the morning, her uncle took Xia Qingbo to deliver the goods.

Now there are only the three of them and Shen Jingmei and his wife at the dinner table.

Hearing Xia Youzhi's words, Shen Jingmei and his wife also looked at Xia's mother.

"It's nothing, I'm just thinking about whether I should buy some New Year's goods again, I haven't bought these Spring Festival couplets yet, hehe."

Xia Mu laughed twice.

Immediately, she avoided Xia Youzhi's inquiring eyes, and looked at Shen Jingmei and his wife with a weak heart, "But I'm afraid that Senior Sister Shen, you will feel tired, there are quite a lot of people on the street now." ”

can only take Shen Jingmei and his wife in the way!

"No, we like to be lively, I used to live with Lao Zhao, it was deserted, and now I go to buy New Year's goods with everyone, I am very happy, I don't feel tired."

Shen Jingmei looked at Xia Mu, her eyes full of joy.

When Xia Mu heard this, she felt a little sad.

Although my family used to be poor, it was a lively New Year!

She smiled and put her hand on Shen Jingmei's hand, "Sister Shen, as long as you don't dislike it, you will treat this place as your own home, and you will come here for the New Year's holidays." ”

"Yes, we don't have much fun in the countryside, and the food and clothing are definitely not comparable to those in the city, but we are lively here."

Zhang Xiuxia, the aunt on the side, also accosted her with a smile.

"Thank you." Shen Jingmei was a little excited.

Zhao Decheng hurriedly patted her on the shoulder to comfort her.

"Then let's go to the street after dinner in a while, and buy all the things we didn't buy."

Xia Youzhi smiled lightly and changed the topic.

She didn't want Shen Jingmei to be immersed in sadness.

At this time, Xia Qinglin, who was playing outside, ran back in a hurry.

"What are you going to buy? I'll go too! ”

Xia Qinglin heard a few adults outside the house saying that they were going to the street, so he quickened his pace and rushed in.

Xia Youzhi turned her head to look, just as Xia Qinglin rushed to her.

Xia Youzhi hurriedly caught him.

She smiled and hugged Xia Qinglin, "Hurry up, I'm afraid we won't take you to eat something delicious?" But you're going to be a little fat now, and you still eat so much? ”

Xia Youzhi teased Xia Qinglin.

When the others heard this, they all laughed.

Xia Qinglin in her arms was heavier.

This year, his changes are visible to the naked eye.

He weighed a lot, his height was much taller than his peers, and even his skin was ruddy and white.

There is no longer the appearance of the skinny and flat little boy at the beginning.

"Hmph, sister, you just don't want to take me!" Xia Qinglin pouted angrily, turned his back and ignored Xia Youzhi, "I'll find my eldest brother to take me!" ”

When everyone heard Xia Qinglin's childish words, they all laughed.

"Qinglin, your eldest brother went to deliver the goods, and he is not at home today, so I can't take you there."

Zhang Xiuxia laughed and teased Xia Qinglin.

When Xia Qinglin heard this, his eyes widened, and he turned to look at the smiling adults at this table.

Immediately, as if thinking of something, he frowned and looked at Zhang Xiuxia.

"Auntie, you deceive people, usually you and your uncle go to deliver goods, and they come back at noon, how can you still learn to deceive children?"

Xia Qinglin curled his lips with a look of contempt.

This person's appearance of being a big ghost made everyone laugh again.

"Hahaha......"

"It seems that Qinglin is a big child, and he can't be blinded anymore."

"It's not, this number in my heart knows better than anyone else, hahaha."

At the table, you laugh one by one.

Xia Youzhi's heart fluctuated a little, she raised her hand and touched Xia Qinglin's hair, and laughed in a low voice, "I will definitely take you." ”

Hearing Xia Youzhi's assurance, Xia Qinglin smiled.

Immediately, he tore off Xia Youzhi's shoulder and whispered in her ear, "Sister, I just teased you, I know that sister, you will definitely not leave me." ”

After Xia Youzhi listened, his eyes gently rubbed Xia Qinglin's hair.

This year, Xia Qinglin has changed more than his body, he is no longer the cowardly little boy who was beaten.

Now he is confident and generous, and he can tease people.

Xia Youzhi was very relieved.

After breakfast, the group cleaned up and headed out into the street east of town.

There is the market in the town, and the villagers love to go there when they are in the market.

A few people walked all the way, and the town was full of market people.

Everyone had a smile on their faces, carrying things in large bags and small bags.

The small vendors kept shouting and shouting, and it was very lively.

"If we continue to sell lo-mei, we can still make a lot of money now."

Zhang Xiuxia looked at the crowded scene on the street, and felt a little pity.

Xia Youzhi smiled, "Auntie, we have earned money for so long, and we should take a break during the New Year."

Besides, now that the Chinese New Year is over, every household kills pigs and chickens, and our cooked food is not easy to sell, so now it can be delivered to the unit normally. ”

When the unit is on holiday, the family will be completely rested.

Hearing Xia Youzhi's words, Zhang Xiuxia nodded.

"Sister-in-law, don't be a pity, how tired you are, take a good rest, there will be a lot of banquets to order our dishes after the New Year." Xia Mu should be reconciled.

Now a lot of deposits have been made.

As you can imagine, it will be much busier after the year!

When Zhang Xiuxia heard this, she nodded, "I just think it's a pity, so many people go to the market, if they sell braised meat, they can still make some money." ”

"Hey, Mom, you're really working hard."

Zhang Qingqing on the side held Xia Youzhi's arm. looked at Zhang Xiuxia and teased.

In a word, it made everyone laugh.

Xia Youzhi looked at the lively street with a light smile.

This is the first time she has spent the New Year at Xia's house.

She hadn't had it once in her previous life, so she was looking forward to it, and her heart was full of joy.

A few people walked all the way and found that the New Year's market really had a lot of new gadgets for sale.

"Young, look, this year's couplets are really good."

Zhang Qingqing pointed to the stall selling couplets across the street.

At this point, it's already crowded!

Xia Youzhi looked fixedly.

The couplets are printed in gold letters, and there are some flowers and plants on both sides.

And the style is much better.

This is indeed very different from the previous handwritten couplets in Mashan Town.

"Let's go check it out."

After Zhang Qingqing glanced back at the group, he pulled Xia Youzhi to the stall.

"Slow down." Xia Youzhi frowned.

She is still holding Xia Qinglin.

"Hehe, when you see the wind, it is rain."

Zhang Xiuxia looked at Zhang Qingqing, who was drilling into the pile, very helpless.

The heart is so heavy, and he said that he wanted to deal with the object!

"This kid has been a pistachio since he was a child." Xia Mu said with a smile.

Then he looked at Shen Jingmei and his wife on the side and said with a smile, "Sister Shen, let's go to the front first, we can't squeeze in that pile, hehe." ”

Shen Jingmei and her husband were old and didn't like to join in the fun, so they agreed with a smile.

Then, Zhang Xiuxia ran to the crowd and shouted a few times.

After greeting Xia Youzhi and the others, the few of them continued to walk forward.

Here, Zhang Qingqing flipped through the couplets in front of the stall, and did not forget to bargain with the boss.

Xia Youzhi smiled in his heart.

There are too many people, she and Xia Qinglin really can't squeeze in!

"Sister."

Xia Qinglin tugged at Xia Youzhi's sleeve.

"Huh?"

Xia Youzhi bent down slightly and looked at Xia Qinglin suspiciously.

"My cousin is really good at bargaining, and she can be shy in front of Uncle Luo." Xia Qinglin whispered in Xia Youzhi's ear.

Uncle Luo?

Xia You was stunned, and then realized that the "Uncle Luo" Xia Qinglin said was Luo Peng.

She snorted and laughed.

She glanced at Zhang Qingqing through the gap in the crowd.

With his hands on his hips, where is the shyness when he saw Luo Peng!

Xia Youzhi smiled and retracted his gaze, but he caught a glimpse of a person looking at him.

She looked up.

Forehead......

It's her cousin...... Summer orchids?

Seeing that Xia Youzhi had already seen herself, Xia Lanhua's eyes were a little cramped.

The booth was not big, and she was standing diagonally opposite Xia Youzhi.

Then, she smiled at Xia Youzhi.

Xia Youzhi nodded lightly.

Seeing this, Xia Lanhua hesitated for a moment, then walked through the crowd and squeezed to Xia Youzhi's side.

"You're back? Young. Xia Lanhua smiled awkwardly.

Xia Youzhi nodded.

Immediately, the two were silent for a while.

Xia Qinglin on the side looked at Xia Youzhi and then at Xia Lanhua.

But he was quiet and silent.

"Uh...... When will I return to the village for the Chinese New Year? Xia Lanhua didn't have anything to say.

As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Lanhua was embarrassed first.

Because her third aunt had already sent a message home, saying that they would go back like this at the age of twenty-eight.

"Well, in two days." Xia Youzhi said simply.

But seeing that Xia Lanhua seemed to be nervous, she thought for a while and added, "Wait for my dad to come back in the next two days." ”

Hearing this, Xia Lanhua's two eyes were bent into crescents.

She also worked in the county store during this time, so she naturally knew that Xia Guomin would stay until the end.

"Well, thank you for working in the store."

Xia Lanhua thought about it and mustered up the courage to thank Xia Youdao.

When Xia Youzhi heard this, he shook his head.

"It's okay, I also need someone over there, and my family will help, I will be more at ease." Xia Youzhi said lightly.

Family?

Hearing Xia Youzhi's words, Xia Lanhua's smile became more obvious.

She was about to say something, but was interrupted by a voice from outside the crowd.

"You dead girl, let you buy a couplet that grinds and chirps, I've bought all the dishes." Huang Lianzhi shouted sharply at the crowd.

Xia Lanhua was taken aback, and then said quickly, "Youzhi, I'll go back first." ”

Saying that, Xia Lanhua didn't wait for Xia Youzhi's reaction, and walked out as if fleeing.

Like a frightened bird.

Xia Youzhi retracted her gaze suspiciously, and it happened that Zhang Qingqing walked towards her with the "loot".

"I just saw Xia Lanhua?" Zhang Qingqing asked suspiciously.

She and Xia Lanhua both work in the county, so they naturally know each other.

Xia Youzhi nodded, "Let's go." ”

Zhang Qingqing asked with a smile as she walked, "Why did you meet her?" What is she looking for you? Seek help? ”

Zhang Qingqing's eyes flashed with gossip.

Xia Youzhi glanced at her, "Say hello, what do you ask for?" ”

"Youzhi, you really don't know about your cousin?"

Zhang Qingqing saw that Xia Youzhi's expression was indifferent, and he exclaimed.
