On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Chu Yi and Shen Luzhu's family went to Jiang's house early with their things, and Aunt Cui came out of the back room with Xiaobao in her arms and greeted her with a smile: "The third uncle of the Chu family, come quickly, come and sit in the house!" Ayi, you two are really, you guys took a bunch of things when they came to the door before, why do you take them again today? Next time I do this, auntie, I'm going to teach people a lesson!"

"Auntie can't see me and Chu Yi like this, it's just some snacks and something, bring it to Xiaobao to taste."

"Cheng Chengcheng, then I'll take it, thank his cousin and cousin for Xiaobao!"

Here Chu Yi and a few people entered the house with their front feet, and after sitting for a long time, the sound of calling the door sounded again outside the courtyard gate of the Jiang family over there, and Aunt Cui hurriedly rushed over to open the door.

Seeing that Ding An was holding a little girl outside the door, Aunt Cui couldn't help but be a little surprised, her family made an appointment with Ding An for lunch, I thought that it would be good for someone to be such a big official, and it would be good to agree to come over, but I was afraid that I would not come to the door until the point of fast dinner, but I didn't expect to come over at this hour, not to mention, and there were a lot of New Year's goods in my hand.

"Ding Zhutou is here, what else do you bring! This is Yaya, I heard my Juan'er mention it, this girl is so handsome, come on, come in, don't freeze the child outside!"

Ding An handed over a few bags of things in his hand: "Aunt Jiang doesn't have to be polite, just call me Ding An, these are all asked by my aunt, she said that for the New Year, how can anyone go to other people's houses empty-handed, and she is not afraid to make her aunt see the joke!" Yaya, call grandma."

After the Chinese New Year, Yaya, who is already six years old, is a sensible and sweet-mouthed little girl on weekdays, listened to Ding An's words, and stepped forward to greet Aunt Cui with a smile: "Grandma Jiang has a good New Year!"

"Good! Yaya is so good! Old man! Juan'er! Come out quickly, Ding Zhutou is coming!"

When Ding An saw Chu Yi and Shen Luzhu coming out of the house, he was slightly stunned, and then thought that the two families were cousins, and the relationship had always been good.

Chu Yi and Shen Luzhu had dealt with Ding An for a few days, and when they saw this, they took the lead in coming forward to say hello: "Ding Zhutou, I haven't seen you for many days."

Ding An bowed his hand and saluted back: "Boss Chu, Mrs. Chu, today is an ordinary walk and not a case, don't call it a head catcher, just call me Ding An!" In the previous case, it was really a duty, and if there was anything offended, I hope the two of you will bear with me."

Chu Yi and Shen Luzhu are not the kind of people with small stomachs, so naturally they will not hold a grudge against Ding An who just does things according to the rules, Chu Yi recalled a little, vaguely remembering that Ding An seemed to be a few years older than him, and responded: "Then let's call you Brother Ding, the previous thing Brother Ding was just a business, how can you not offend anything."

Shen Luzhu also smiled and said, "Yes, Brother Ding, thanks to you for finding out the truth, Chu Yi and I proved our innocence and were acquitted, in the end, we have to thank you!"

"Everywhere, everything should be done, then I'll call you Brother Chu!"

Everyone had lunch at Jiang's house and chatted for a long time, until Xiaobao and Yaya were a little sleepy, and Ding An took Yaya to say goodbye from Jiang's house.

After sending Ding An away, Chu Yi and his party also drove the ox cart back to the old house, Shen Luzhu sat next to Chu Yi, watching him catch the car, and said with emotion: "I really didn't expect that Ding Zhutou would have such a temperament in private, and he would be so approachable!"

Chu Yi didn't have much feeling about this, but he had always been based on Shen Luzhu's thoughts: "Xu used to treat us as criminals, but now it's different."

Shen Luzhu nodded, it was just a small talk, she didn't particularly care about what happened to Ding An, anyway, it is estimated that there will be no more intersections in the future, she is more concerned about another thing: "I really didn't expect that this Wang Tiecheng would not stop when he died, without him, his father and mother would actually go to his cousin's house, thanks to the fact that he happened to be bumped into by Ding Zhutou this time, otherwise I really don't know how much trouble it will go." It seems that I should pay more attention to my aunt's house in the future!"

"Listen to Azhu!"

Driving the ox cart, the group of five soon arrived at home, the gate of the yard was locked, and there was no one in the family. The more Xu looked at Chu Yixiao, the more angry he became, and after Chinese New Year's Eve, Chu Aye followed Chu

Grandma almost stays at Uncle Chu's new house all day long.

According to Uncle Chu, Grandpa Chu has begun to urge Uncle Chu and Auntie Chu to clean up the house over there, thinking that they want to move over quickly, but from the occasional complaints from Grandma Chu, it seems that the cleaning up of the house on the other side of the new house does not seem to be going well, but no one knows what the specific reason is.

The little couple didn't have much feeling about this, the two of them had long lost any feelings for Grandpa Chu and Grandma Chu, but Uncle Chu was still a little maladaptable for a while, and every time they saw Grandma Chu packing up things, they were always inevitably a little melancholy and depressed.

In order to divert the attention of the third uncle Chu, the little couple took Chu Li and Xiuxiu to play cards in the third uncle's house when they had nothing to do recently, and sometimes Chu Ping and his father and mother would also come over to have a good time together.

When he wasn't playing cards, Shen Luzhu and Chu Yi pulled the third uncle to talk about their future plans, such as how to renovate the house and lay it out, which house the family would live in in the future, and how to repair the yard.

The days always pass quickly, in the blink of an eye, half of the first month has passed, and it looks like the Lantern Festival is coming, this year's Lantern Festival, Chu Yi plans to take his wife to the county town to visit the Lantern Festival, this Lantern Festival is still Chu Yi when he bought goods in the town before, I heard that every year on the fifteenth day of the first month, the county will hold the Lantern Festival, at that time Chu Yi thought that his wife would like it.

It's just that it was still a big family before, Grandpa Chu is an old antique, the Lantern Festival is necessary to have a reunion dinner in the old house, and now that the family is divided, there are only five of them in the family, and the third uncle has always been a reasonable elder, Chu Yi thought about taking the whole family out for a walk, if Shen Luzhu likes it, it is not impossible for them to go to the county seat for the Lantern Festival every year in the future.

After listening to Chu Yi's thoughts, Shen Luzhu's eyes suddenly lit up, and she was sitting in the kang upright, but she moved in front of Chu Yi in an instant: "Really? Fifteen, let's go to the county town to visit the lantern festival! I won't be able to come back that night!"

Chu Yi looked at his wife's happy little face, which didn't look like he was afraid of not coming back at all: "We have an ox cart, it's convenient to come back whenever we want, and if it's really late, it's a big deal to stay at an inn in the county seat for one night."

As soon as she heard that she could stay in the county inn for one night before leaving, Shen Luzhu was even more excited with the naked eye, she had lived two lifetimes, and she had never lived in the antique inn seen in film and television dramas!

If you have good things, you naturally have to share them with relatives and friends, so that the happiness will be doubled: "Chu Yi, except for a few of us, do you want to ask other people, when there are more people, it will be more lively!"

"Okay, listen to Azhu!"

Since dividing the family, Shen Luzhu feels that he is a happy bird, unrestrained every day, happy and comfortable! After discussing with Chu Yi and going to the county seat for the Lantern Festival, he went to various courtyards non-stop, first the nearest Chu Ping's house, and then went to his grandmother Cui's house, Shen's family, Zhao Cheng's family and Jiang Juan's house, and asked everyone he could think of.

Most of the elders were reluctant to follow to join in the fun, like Uncle Chu San, who didn't let go no matter how much he persuaded him this time, and in turn comforted Chu Yi that they could rest assured that they could celebrate the festival with the grandfather's family next door. On the contrary, the young ones are full of interest, like Chu Ping is the first to bear the brunt, in addition to Jiang Juan and Jiang Quan, Shen Changshan, the little cousin of Shen Luzhu's second uncle's family. There are also some people who want to go, but the situation is not very allowed, such as Zhao Cheng and Shen Songjie, either the children are still too young, or there are pregnant women at home, so it is not good to go out to play by themselves and leave their wives and children at home.

After lunch during the Lantern Festival, everyone went to the old house of the Chu family one after another according to the discussion, laid out the quilt on the ox cart, put two carbon stoves, and a group of nine people sat on the ox cart and set off towards the county seat.

The ox cart walked on the road for more than an hour, and everyone finally arrived at the county seat, and it was still early to come out, and there was still a lot of time to wait for the Lantern Festival at night, Chu Yi took everyone to the street to find an inn to rest first, and drink some hot tea to warm up by the way.

In the evening, everyone had dinner in a famous restaurant in the county, and when the lights came on, various lantern stalls were set up on the main street

There are rabbits, tigers and other animal shapes that children like, peach blossoms, lotuses, lotus flowers and other patterns, as well as palace lanterns, dragon lanterns, square, round, cylindrical and polygonal, everything.

There are also many wealthy businessmen who charter a boat to enjoy the lanterns on the river, and the cruise ship is also decorated with various colored lanterns and lanterns, and floats on the water with the current, which has also become a beautiful scenery.

The group walked up the main street with the flow of people, Chu Yi took Shen Luzhu's hand and walked in the front, behind him were Chu Ping with Chu Li, Xiuxiu and Shen Changshan and several children, and at the end was Jiang Juan and Jiang Quan with Xiaobao.

As he walked, Shen Luzhu suddenly heard that someone next to him seemed to be calling him and Chu Yi, and turned his head to see that it was Ding An who had also come out to visit the Lantern Festival with Yaya.

"Brother Chu, brother and sister, and Miss Jiang, such a coincidence! Did you come to town specifically to see the lantern festival?" When he met Chu Yi at the lantern festival, Ding An was obviously a little unexpected.

"Brother Ding!"

"Brother Ding also took the girl out to enjoy the lanterns!"

"Yes, after dinner, there is nothing to do, so I took the girl out to join in the fun, the girl is called, we just met a few days ago, do you remember?"

"It's Aunt Jiang, Uncle Chu and Auntie, and Brother Xiaobao!"

After everyone greeted each other, they naturally got together to visit the lantern festival, Yaya seemed to like Xiaobao very much, and ran to Xiaobao with Ding An, Ding An did not stop it, so he simply stood outside Yaya, while taking care of the children, while doing his best to the friendship of the landlord, and told the big guy about the various Lantern Festival lanterns he knew.

Wandering around, I don't know when Chu Yi was holding Shen Luzhu and walking behind Jiang Juan and the others, looking at Ding An, who had already turned out to be Xiaobao in his arms, and Jiang Juan who was holding Yaya, Shen Luzhu fell into deep thought.

"Azhu, do you want to buy a lantern to hold?"

"Azhu?"

"Huh? What?"

Chu Yi looked at his stunned wife and was a little funny: "I asked if you want to buy a lantern, what do you want to be so fascinated?"

Shen Luzhu wrinkled his nose slightly, feeling that his idea was too ridiculous, but he couldn't help it, and after thinking about it, he still asked Chu Yi: "Chu Yi, why didn't I see Ding Zhutou and his wife go out to visit the Lantern Festival together, and it was also in the village before, it seems that only Ding Zhutou and Yaya are alone, and I don't know if they are divorced or ......."

Chu Yi looked at Ding An, who was not far ahead, and shook his head: "Why is Ah Zhu suddenly so concerned about Ding Zhutou's matter?"

"It's nothing, forget it!"

Shen Luzhu shook his head, wanting to shake off the ridiculous thoughts in his mind: "Let's go buy lanterns, I want that rabbit, buy one for Ah Li and them."

"Okay."

"Ah Li, Xiuxiu, Chang Shan, as well as Xiaobao and Yaya, come over and see what kind of lantern you want. Come, come!"

As soon as Chu Li heard that he could buy a lantern by himself, he rushed over happily in an instant, and Xiaobao also struggled to get out of Ding An's arms, and ran towards Shen Luzhu as soon as he was placed on the ground.

Each of the children chose a lantern they liked, and Shen Luzhu also bought her favorite rabbit lantern, and the group continued to walk down. The vendor on the side of the road ate a bowl of steaming Lantern Festival, went to the river to watch the cruise ship, and put a river lantern on the riverside by the way, and walked until the time of Kuaizi, and then went home.
