In the past few days, Chu Li always feels that the atmosphere at home is weird, and it looks no different from the past, but he always feels that something is different.

Chu Li went to ask his brother, and the brother said, "It's okay, don't think about it!" ”

I went to ask him about the third uncle again, but the third uncle just sighed and didn't say anything, which was really sad!

The school in the village because it is only to teach a 300,000, to the students to learn words, the homework task is not heavy, generally only half a day of classes every day, this day at noon, Chu Li as usual after school, and classmates returned home together, halfway to the road seems to hear someone call himself.

"Chu Li? You are Chu Li, I am Shen Luzhu's cousin Shen Changshan, we met on the day of the appointment! ”

Chu Li turned around and saw that he was really the cousin of the Shen family's sister, so he hurriedly stopped: "I'm Chu Li, good cousin of the Shen family!" ”

Shen Changshan was sent by his cousin to deliver something to Chu Yi, and he didn't want to just cross the river, so he saw Chu Li on the road, and stepped forward with a smile: "Brother Chu Li, my cousin has something to hand over to your brother, and I happened to meet you, so please please hand it over for me?" As he spoke, he handed the small clay pot in his hand to Chu Li.

Chu Li was holding the small clay pot, trotting all the way home, and when he entered the courtyard gate, he saw that his brother was cutting wood in the courtyard, and hurriedly ran over: "Brother, you see what I brought back, it was given to you by the Shen family's sister!" ”

Hearing this, Chu Yi took the clay pot, got up and looked at the courtyard gate: "Where did Ah Li see your sister of the Shen family?" ”

"It was sent by the cousin of the Shen family's sister, and it happened to catch me back home from school, Brother quickly open it and see what it is?"

Chu Yi lifted the lid of the clay pot, and there were three red eggs dyed inside, Xu was afraid that the clay pot would break the eggs, and carefully spread a lot of fine cloth in it.

took out the red egg, and saw a note pressed below: Chu Yi, see Xinyue! Today, I accompanied my grandmother to the village to celebrate her birthday, and my grandmother saw that I was cute and pleasing, and gave me three birthday eggs to make me happy, remembering that tomorrow's sixth day is your birthday, I will give it to you, don't forget, tomorrow morning, you must roll it on your body first, get rid of the disease, and then eat it! - Shen Luzhu.

At that time, people thought that the birth of the parents of the body was the day of the mother's suffering, so in Daqian, except for the newborn babies who would be one year old, only the elderly over 50 years old would have a birthday.

When I celebrate my birthday, I will boil some red eggs, one is to pray for the illness of the birthday star, and the other is to share it with the juniors in the family, hoping that they can be as blessed and long as the birthday star, Chu Yi couldn't help but want to laugh, except for Shen Luzhu in this world, probably no one will send birthday eggs on the first day of his birthday, and tell him to roll it again.

Chu Li was small, and he couldn't see what was written on the note when he looked up, but he could only see his brother holding the clay pot, which seemed to be ...... Laughing, Chu Li rarely saw too many expressions on his brother's face, and seeing that a small note from the Shen family's sister could make his brother laugh at once, he felt more and more that the Shen family's sister was really amazing!

"Brother, what did Sister Shen say?"

Chu Yi stretched out his hand, picked out two of the birthday eggs and handed them to his younger brother, and put the remaining one away along with the note: "The birthday egg sent by your sister of the Shen family, Ah Li took one to Xiuxiu and each other." Then he straightened his shirt and walked out of the courtyard with the clay pot in his hand.

"Brother, it's about to be lunch, where are you going?"

"Return the clay pot and come back soon."

In the Shen family's stove room, Shen's mother was taking Shen Luzhu to prepare lunch for the family, and she and her daughter had already eaten it when they went to give people longevity, but no one else in the family had eaten yet.

Originally, the work in the stove room, Shen's mother rarely let Shen Luzhu touch it, but now her daughter has already set a family, and the Qin mother-in-law who was a matchmaker yesterday also came to discuss the marriage date, and it was set for the next year, the eighteenth day of the first month, and there are not many days left, and the dowry and wedding clothes have to be prepared, and she doesn't have to worry about her daughter's needlework, but she doesn't have to worry about the work on the stove, and she hasn't done much at home, so she has to learn it quickly!

Shen Luzhu was listening to her aunt's teachings, and saw her eldest brother who was supposed to be in the pharmacy in the front yard enter the stove room, thinking that he was hungry, and just about to open his mouth, he heard the eldest brother Shen Chuanbai say: "Auntie, Chu Yi is here, and he is in the pharmacy in the front yard!" ”

Shen's mother was stunned for a moment, then looked at the daughter beside her, thinking that Chu Yi came at this time and didn't say what was the matter, it was estimated that she saw her daughter coming, anyway, the two families have already decided on the family matter, and the six wedding ceremonies have been carried out five times, and only the last marriage is left, and it is a good thing to cultivate more feelings before marriage: "Luzhu, you go to the front for A-Niang!" ”

"Yes!"

Although Shen Chuanbai knew that his sister's family affair was a foregone conclusion, Chu Yi was also a good one, it can be seen that A-Niang let her sister go out to see Chu Yi so easily, and her own sister's unreserved strength, she was really a little depressed, so she stopped Shen Luzhu: "Go and come back quickly, I'm still waiting for you to have lunch!" ”

Shen Luzhu looked at the eldest brother holding his hand, blinked, and instantly assured with a serious face: "Don't worry, big brother, I'll go and get him away and come back, and I will definitely not delay lunch!" Then he walked out with his head held high and with dignity!

Chu Yi and Grandpa Shen were chatting in the pharmacy in the front yard of the Shen family, when they heard someone push open the back door of the pharmacy, the two looked back together, and saw that it was their granddaughter, Grandpa Shen said with a smile: "Xu is lunch is ready, come and call me back to eat, Luzhu, you come to help Grandpa entertain Chu Yi, the old man can't stand the hunger!" ”

Shen Luzhu smiled and helped Shen Grandpa out of the back door of the pharmacy before turning around and talking to Chu Yi: "Why did this hour come, did you receive the things?" ”

"Well, come and return your jar." Chu Yi just suddenly wanted to see Shen Luzhu, but when he really arrived at the Shen family, he didn't know what to say, and he was a little worried about whether he was impulsive!

Shen Luzhu took the jar and held it in his hand, seeing that Chu Yi was just standing expressionlessly, guessing if he was the same as the original Shen family, he felt that except for the elderly and children who were over the age of one, they should not celebrate their birthdays, so they came to educate her!

She heard that some people who are particularly excessive, and even think that it is unfilial to be too happy on the day of their birthday: "The child's birthday is A-Niang's Good Friday, and it really shouldn't be celebrated, how can there be a celebration of A-Niang's suffering, isn't it?" If I have a child in the future, I will beat him up every year on my birthday, otherwise how can I be worthy of the hardships I have suffered! ”

Chu Yi listened to the voice of the girl in front of him, a little distracted, it was really hard for him to imagine the picture of a person like a sweet peach beating a child in front of him, if there was a day, would he help the child or help her, he should be able to help her, who would bear to refuse her!

Seeing that although Chu Yi didn't speak, his expression seemed to be quite gentle, Shen Luzhu continued: "But if you think about it, this child is quite pitiful, although the body is affected by the parents, but when the father and mother didn't discuss it with him, they gave birth to him, so if he takes good care of his body and grows up well, it's not impossible not to beat him!" If he wants to commemorate how brave A-Niang was and celebrate A-Niang's greatness, it's not impossible, so it's okay to roll up bad luck and eat a birthday egg, isn't it? ”

Chu Yi thought that Shen Luzhu had said so much, because he was afraid that he would not listen to her tomorrow, so he couldn't help but laugh a little: "You're right!" ”

Shen Luzhu admitted that she had more or less some words, but now that Chu Yi opened her mouth, she looked at herself and didn't speak, so that she was a little speechless for a while: "What are you watching me do?" ”

"I'm thinking, today's birthday grandma has such a good eye!" His deer bamboo is really cute and cute!

Shen Luzhu felt that he had been deceived, who said that Chu Yi, who was married to her, had few serious words, this was clearly an invisible wingman!

In winter, the days are short, time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the twenty-eighth month of the lunar month, more than two months ago, Shen Luzhu is in the wedding dress and her aunt to learn to do some housework, this day is following Shen's mother to count the New Year's goods, learning which relatives to give New Year's gifts, and what to give, I heard the second aunt Zheng said, Chu Yi came with Chu gifts to send things!

When Shen Luzhu followed Shen's mother into the hall, Chu Yi was accompanying Shen's father and the future second uncle Shen Songjie to have tea, and Chu Li was called to the warehouse by his cousin Shen Changshan to see the two geese sent when he was hired.

In the past half a month or so, my cousin Chu Ping had nothing to do, so he went to the mountains to take a turn, picked some mountain goods such as pine nuts and hazelnuts, and also caught two pheasants and a nest of hares, and privately gave Chu Yi some, and Chu Yi brought a pheasant and a few bags of mountain goods to the Shen family.

"It's not easy to get into the snowy mountains, I'm afraid it took a lot of effort to keep these things at home, how good is it to keep them for the New Year?" Mother Shen is really getting more and more pleasing to the eye when she looks at Chu Yi now, this child is really good!

"It was made by my cousin Chu Ping, and I sent it to my grandfather and uncle and aunt to try it."

Shen's father put down the tea bowl in his hand and told Shen's mother: "His mother will make a few more dishes in a while, and then blanch some wine." Then he said to Chu Yi: "Since you are here, you will stay at home for lunch and come back later!" ”

At noon, Chu Yi and Chu Li stayed at the Shen family for dinner, Chu Yi also accompanied the men of the Shen family to use a lot of wine, and was left by Shen's mother to sober up in her cousin Shen Changshan's house, and did not lead Chu Li to say goodbye until mid-afternoon.

The Chu and Shen families have not officially married, Chu Yi is not the son-in-law of the Shen family now, according to local customs, the two families do not need to give each other New Year's gifts this year, so Shen's mother is really not ready to give the Chu family something.

Fortunately, a few days ago at home, the pig was killed, and Shen's mother cut two knives of fine pork belly, and took a jar of home-made bacon for Chu Yi to mention: "This pig is self-fed, it is very fat, and the bacon is also made by my aunt herself, so I will bring it back to you to taste my aunt's craftsmanship!" ”

"Auntie, how embarrassing is this."

"What's so embarrassing about this, my aunt let you take it, it's a New Year's gift from my grandfather and grandma, just think you helped me run back my legs, and my aunt has to thank you!"

Seeing that Chu Yi still refused to continue, Shen's mother gave Shen Luzhu on the side a look, thinking of asking her daughter to help persuade her, and I don't know if Shen Luzhu would be wrong, so she took the meat in Shen's mother's hand and stuffed it into Chu Yi's hand, and then pushed Chu Yi to walk out of the courtyard, saying as she walked: "Okay, okay, A-Niang never tells lies, let you take it!" ”

After speaking, he turned around and winked at her aunt!

While Chu Yi was still stunned by the warm touch behind him, Shen Luzhu had already pushed people outside the courtyard, Chu Yi couldn't help but smile again, felt a small purse from his chest and handed it to the person in front of him: "For you, open it again on Chinese New Year's Eve, go!" ”
