Looking at the vegetable dumplings that were rushing towards him with excitement, Song Ci reached out and picked her up.

"Isn't it boring to be alone?" Song Ci asked.

Cai Gyoza nodded honestly.

"Auntie went back to see Nuan Nuan, Sister Millet went home, Sister Little Butterfly also went home, and no one talked to me and played with me." The vegetable dumplings are a little aggrieved and authentic.

"Then you can go to the village and play with other children?"

Cai Dumpling shook his head again when he heard this.

Then he said: "They won't come out today, wait for the incense burned by Mom and Dad." ”

"That's right." Song Ci looked at the village below the mountain.

"They should be happy today."

The vegetable dumpling who was held in his arms shook his head when he heard this.

"There are also unhappy people, and some children's parents have forgotten him."

"Then why doesn't he return to the Sea of Souls and choose a new mom and dad?"

Song Ci also felt very funny after asking.

Cai Dumpling himself is still a child, how can he answer this question.

What I didn't expect was Cai Dumpling and said directly: "Because they haven't forgotten their parents." ”

Song Ci was silent when he heard this.

A word came to his mind.

"Lonely ghosts."

Those who are forgotten but cannot be forgotten are the most pitiful.

Looking at the "cooking smoke" curling down the slope, Song Ci stretched out his hand and waved it gently, the whole world seemed to be filled with a sense of festivity, red lanterns were suspended in the air, like a little star, colorful ribbons hung down on the treetops, fluttering in the wind, and birds singing on the treetops......

These are not changed by making a wish, but by using the original incense of Taoyuan Village, just like the incense used to transform the entire Taoyuan Village in the past.

After the Spring Festival, these things will turn into incense again, filling the entire Taoyuan Village, everywhere, everywhere, quietly waiting for Song Ci to use them again.

"Wow, that's beautiful."

The dumplings looked up at the sky, and the red lanterns formed a galaxy, winding to the horizon, endlessly, and even covering the sun in the sky.

"At night, do they light up?" Cai Dumpling asked curiously.

"Of course."

By the time the evening comes, the world will be more beautiful.

And the villagers of Taoyuan Village also came out of the house one after another, curiously watching the changes in the world.

Someone reached out and touched an unknown wildflower next to him, and the flowers suddenly burst out with colorful fireworks, the person was first startled, then laughed happily, and then reached out and stroked the flowers around him one by one, and for a time countless fireworks rose into the air, like a dream.

Some people found that the peach blossoms on the peach tree were withering one after another, bearing fruit at a speed visible to the naked eye, exuding a pungent fragrance, and tried to pick one, but when they took a bite, they were surprised to find that they ate the taste of apples.

Surprised, I picked another one and took a bite, but it tasted like a banana.

Only then did it suddenly dawn on a tree with a hundred fruits, each with a different taste.

The whole Taoyuan Village is filled with joy.

It's nice to celebrate the New Year!

………………

Cai Lichun brought a plate of braised pork ribs out of the kitchen, but saw Liu Hongyu sitting on the sofa, looking at the opposite wall in a daze.

Following her gaze, there was a hundred days of vegetable dumplings hanging there.

The vegetable dumplings that have just been born for 100 days, crawling on the plush blanket with bare butts, several knots of fleshy arms, trying to look up at the front curiously with their short necks, a pair of big black eyes, clear as a lake, with curiosity about the world.

The hair on his head is sparse, and there is a string of shiny saliva hanging from the corner of his mouth.

Such a fleshy little hairy head, anyone who sees it will show a knowing smile, because she touches the softness of people's hearts.

Outsiders are like this, not to mention Liu Hongyu as a mother, so she can't see enough of it.

"Don't look at it, you can help me in the kitchen." Cai Lichun interrupted Liu Hongyu's thoughts.

He was worried that Liu Hongyu would see too much, and he would inevitably be sad again, so he should not be too sad for the New Year.

Liu Hongyu did not agree, but said: "The vegetable dumplings are really long, pick our advantages, if she can grow up healthy and healthy, she will definitely be a beautiful girl in the future." ”

The reason why Liu Hongyu said this is because the appearance of the husband and wife is actually not outstanding.

Cai Lichun has big eyes and a collapsed nose, and the shape of his mouth is not good-looking, but his ears are thick and fleshy, and he is very beautiful.

And Liu Hongyu is short and fat, with a big face and small eyes, an upturned mouth, a thick waist and short legs, just an ordinary woman.

However, the vegetable dumplings have big eyes, a high nose bridge, thick, meaty and shaped ears, and a natural slightly upturned mouth, giving people a feeling of joy.

Whoever sees it will praise him for being a blessed baby in the future.

Cai Lichun and his wife have always thought so, thinking that their daughter will definitely have a good life when she grows up, and she will have a good life, unlike them who work hard.

Until Cai Dumpling fell ill, they no longer believed these nonsense, and they did not pray that Cai Dumpling would be rich and rich in the future, but only that she would be safe and sound, but even so, fate still took Cai Dumpling away from them.

Cai Lichun was grief-stricken, otherwise he would not have found a job in the cemetery of Cai Dumpling, just so that he could stand in front of Cai Dumpling's grave every day, tell her stories, pick wild flowers, buy toys, and wipe tombstones......

However, since Cai Dumpling met Song Ci, they suddenly felt that everyone said that Cai Dumpling was a blessed baby, and it didn't seem to be wrong.

If she is not blessed, can she meet Mr. Song? If she is not blessed, can she get Mr. Song's love and become a trick? What a blessing this is to have such a great opportunity.

"Okay, don't think about these things, let's hurry up and prepare all the meals, and we'll go to burn paper money for the dumplings later, didn't Mr. Song say it? Burn more paper money, it will be good for vegetable dumplings. ”

"Then you have to be sincere."

"Definitely, the gold ingots and silver ingots are all folded out by the two of us one by one."

Liu Hongyu also grinned happily when she heard this, stood up and prepared to help her husband prepare the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together.

This is their most sumptuous Chinese New Year's Eve meal in recent years.

Because Cai Dumpling has been sick and hospitalized before, and he can't come back even during the New Year, so the couple has been going to settle for a while.

And after the death of the vegetable dumplings, the family has been immersed in sadness, and the reunion day of the New Year makes them feel guilty, and naturally they don't have much thought about the New Year, basically it is a hasty thing, and there is not much difference from weekdays, at most it is just to add one or two dishes.

"If only the dumplings could celebrate the New Year with us?" Liu Hongyu said suddenly.

Cai Lichun pursed his lips when he heard this, and then said seriously: "Maybe the dumplings are in the house now, but we can't see her, she likes to be lively, she will definitely come back to celebrate the New Year with us, I also bought her fireworks, and New Year's gifts." ”

"Is that really the case?" Liu Hongyu asked with a look of surprise.

Cai Lichun nodded and said: "I heard Cai Dumpling say before, Mr. Song does not forbid them to go home, she also said that she came back to see us several times, but we couldn't see her, since this is the case, she will definitely come back for the New Year, Cai Dumpling has always been very well-behaved." ”

"Yes, you're right, why don't we go burn the paper now? Don't make the dumplings wait too long. Liu Hongyu said excitedly.

"Okay."

Cai Lichun was originally going to cook it after cooking, and now it is the same.

The place where they burn paper is behind the house, and the place where they live belongs to the suburbs, there are not so many rules, which is why Cai Lichun is ready to burn the Chinese New Year's Eve meal and then burn the paper, which is really convenient.

When the two came to the house, Liu Hongyu picked up a branch and drew an opening circle on the ground.

Cai Lichun used a lighter to light the yellow paper money and put it in the center, and at the same time said with words in his mouth: "Vegetable dumplings, come and collect money." ”

And Liu Hongyu drew a few other circles next to it, these belong to the deceased elders in the family.

Cai Lichun repeated the previous operation, chanting a different name each time.

Until the last one, he said: "The lonely grave and wild ghosts come to collect money, don't fight, don't rob, the next life will be prosperous and rich." ”

When there was burning paper money in each circle, Cai Lichun took out two large bags, gold ingots, silver ingots, dark coins, silver yuans, etc., and stuffed them into the circle belonging to the vegetable dumplings.

Liu Hongyu carefully picked up the yellow paper money with a branch and let it burn fully.

And Cai Lichun lit firecrackers and thunderbolts on the side.

With the crackling sound of firecrackers and the crackling sound of explosions in the air, the smoke curled up, full of human fireworks, blurring the vision of the two.

There seems to be a faint figure.

Before they could see who was coming, they heard a familiar voice.

"Wow, that's scary, Dad, stand far away, be careful of the firecrackers blowing your ass."

"Vegetable dumplings?"

Cai Lichun didn't care about the firecracker confetti flying around, and rushed directly through the thick fog, and then saw Song Ci appear in front of him with vegetable dumplings.

"Mr. Song." Cai Lichun couldn't hide his excitement, but his eyes were always on his daughter.

And Song Ci was also bending down to put down the vegetable dumplings.

"Vegetable dumplings."

At this time, Liu Hongyu also threw away the branch in her hand, rushed up, and hugged her daughter.

Cai Dumpling buried her head in her mother's arms, feeling relieved and less afraid of the splashing firecrackers.

"Okay, have a good New Year with my parents, I'll go first."

Song Ci said that he was about to leave, but was stopped by Cai Lichun.

"Mr. Song."

"What's wrong?"

"I want to visit you after the holiday, I don't know if it will disturb you."

"Don't be so troublesome, there's nothing to visit, live your life well, it's the best for the dumplings." Song Ci directly shook his head and refused.

"Mr. Song, I ...... I bought something, and I know that with your ability, there must be no shortage of these, but this is a piece of our heart. ”

Seeing that he was so sincere, Song Ci looked at the burning yellow paper money next to him, the flames rose, and the smoke swirled, forming columns of smoke and disappearing into the sky.

"That's it, if you really want to express some thoughts, buy more yellow paper money and come back, when you burn it, say that it will be burned to the lonely souls and wild ghosts in Taoyuan Village, so that they can collect the money, of course, when you burn it, you also need your true feelings."

"Is that all?" Cai Lichun asked with some surprise.

It couldn't have been easier for him, even if they could afford it.

"That's all."

Song Ci nodded slightly, and then disappeared in front of them in an instant.

"Huh? Brother Fairy is gone? I haven't said goodbye to him yet. The vegetable dumplings that realized it later raised their heads from their mother's arms.

"Cai dumplings, let's go home, Dad made a lot of delicious food, and bought you fireworks and gifts." Cai Lichun reached out and took the dumplings from his wife's arms.

"Gift, Brother Fairy also gave me a gift."

Cai Dumpling raised her hand excitedly, and Cai Lichun noticed that she was holding a small mirror with a simple style in her hand.

This is an oval mirror with a handle, and the handle and back are slightly moire, which looks ordinary and nothing special.

But Cai Dumpling said excitedly: "This mirror is like a TV, you can see a lot of interesting places in it, and you can also see small butterflies and millet grains, hehehehe......"

But Cai Lichun can only see himself in the mirror, and he doesn't know whether what the dumplings say is true or not.

In fact, the telescope of the little butterfly, the crystal ball of millet grains and the small mirror of vegetable dumplings are actually almost the same, and they can all peek into the distant scene.

Of course, since it is almost the same, there must be some slight differences, so let's not show it for the time being, and when they find out for themselves, it can be regarded as a small surprise.

And the reason why Song Ci gave them such props is because the little ones who are walkers are actually extremely lonely, have no friends, and don't have much entertainment.

This is completely inconsistent with the nature of children, and with such props, they can be used to peek into the excitement of the world, which can be regarded as an entertainment prop.

………………

When Song Ci returned home, Nuan Nuan was obediently following behind Yun Chuyao, helping to paste couplets.

"This is not a painting, this is a blessing word, and the blessing word should be pasted upside down, which means blessing." Yun Chuyao explained to Nuan Nuan while sticking it.

Nuan Nuan kept nodding her head, looking like she understood, and she didn't know if she really understood or fakely understood.

Seeing Song Ci coming back, Nuan Nuan glanced at him, then moved away and looked at Yun Chuyao again.

This is really with a mother, and Dad directly aside.

To stay before, when Song Ci came back, she would definitely rush up to hug her as soon as possible.

"You're back, is this done?"

Yun Chuyao saw Song Ci come back, his eyes were full of tenderness.

Song Ci nodded, and then said, "Have you finished pasting the couplets?" Need my help? ”

"The house is all pasted, and the gate and courtyard gate are left waiting for you to come back and post them."

According to the rules, the couplets in the Chinese New Year should be pasted by the men in the family, either by the father, or by the children and grandchildren, especially the eldest sons and grandchildren.

So these things should be handed over to Yun Wanli to do, but he can't come back because of work, so he can only get up from time to time and post couplets.

However, the Yun family didn't pay so much attention to it, and directly handed over this job to Yun Chuyao and Nuan Nuan.

But as the most important gate couplet, it was left to Song Ci.

After all, a son-in-law is half a son, and Yun Wanli is not there, so Song Ci must be worthy of this family.
