"But I see that a boy is born in the village, and there is a girl in the family, and the girl's life is not much better."

"At least we don't have to be beaten or scolded." Xu Zhaodi clasped her hands together and said, "In the new year, let's make a wish for our mother to give birth to a son for the Xu family." ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" The two of them also made a wish together, "Give birth to a son, and we will have a better life." ”

"What if I can't give birth to a son?"

"No, everyone can give birth to a son, and so can a mother." Xu Zhaodi said stubbornly, convinced.

"Eldest sister, can we stay here for a few more days?"

"Let me stay for two more days, and then go back and get beaten! I think I can stand it. ”

"Okay! Let's stay for two more days, Ming'er and I beg Mrs. Ye. Xu Zhaodi said softly, "Let's have a little eyes, do more work, don't let people dislike it." ”

"This is still up to my sister! I want Mrs. Ye to like us. ”

"Sometimes I think it's better for him to beat us to death, so that he can be reincarnated, maybe he can be reincarnated, maybe he can be a good person."

"Are there any good people? If we die, they will be married like Sister He. Hearing this, Xu Zhaodi turned around and looked at them and said, "Don't die!" You have to live well, isn't it just to be beaten? I'm used to it, I'm not afraid! The pain will pass. ”

"I know that they will go even further than the He family."

"Don't hang yourself, you won't be able to go to heaven." Xu Zhaodi looked at them with a small face and said through the light of the fire in the stove.

"No, no." Two immature little faces, sparkling eyes, looked at her and reassured in unison.

"Good!" Xu Zhaodi looked at them with a smile on her face and said, "Sleep." ”

"Uh-huh!" The two little ones obediently closed their eyes.

They soon fell asleep, snoring one after another.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, it stands to reason that I should go to the village to pay New Year's greetings, but because the Ye family is in the filial piety period, this New Year's greeting will be exempted.

Early in the morning, the sound of firecrackers in the village is endless, and they are all vying for who will light the first cannon.

Ye Sanniang was woken up by the sound of firecrackers before dawn.

Ye Sanniang sat up and stroked her forehead, it was really the same in ancient and modern times.

"Woke you up." Hearing the movement, the kite opened her eyes and muttered, "It's still dark!" The first time I spent the New Year in the countryside, it was really this firecracker, so loud. ”

"How big is the Bai family's house! It can't be compared to the village. Ye Sanniang shook her head and said with a smile.

"When we first entered the Bai family, firecrackers and fireworks were set off vigorously, but then there were only firecrackers, and the more they were released, the smaller they became." Ori Kite couldn't help but sigh, "The loser is really only in a moment. ”

"When the filial piety period is over, let's set off firecrackers and jump away from bad luck." Ye Sanniang chuckled and said, "I still have to hurry up and hang up the cannon." ”

"Hehe......" A small smile overflowed the lips of the origa, "You still believe this, don't you believe it?" ”

"If you don't believe it, you can't play." Ye Sanniang said with crooked eyebrows, and then said, "Forget it, don't fight with them for this, people are seeking money, and we are better off than others." ”

"The sound of firecrackers didn't wake up the children, did it?" Ye Sanniang asked with concern.

"No, I should have woken up a long time ago, I slept later than usual yesterday." Fold Kite stretched out his hand and touched the two children beside him, and when he heard the squirming voice, he asked, "Why do you still have to get up and go for a morning run on the first day of the new year?" ”

"I'm awake, get up!" Ye Sanniang got dressed and said, "The first day of the Lunar New Year won't affect our morning run!" He smiled and said, "No one has come to pay New Year's greetings, do you want to sleep for a while, it's not dawn yet." ”

"I'll lie down! You have to light a candle when you get up. The kite wrapped the futon around her body and said.

"You don't have to be so economical." Ye Sanniang said with a smile when she heard this.

"It's not saving, what do you think I'm up for? During the Chinese New Year, I couldn't move the needle and thread, so I sat dry! Ori Kite said with a smile on her face.

"Why can't you move the needle?" Ye Sanniang asked curiously.

"You have to rest for a few days during the New Year! I'm going to work for another year! The yamen is still resting! It's not good to be pricked with a needle. Ori Kite said with a smile.

"There are so many taboos for the New Year." Ye Sanniang said with a smile on her eyebrows when she heard this.

"It's also easy to discern, don't do the bad ones, in short, it's been a hard year, take a good rest." Ori Kite said softly.

"Then you can sleep for a while, anyway, the dumplings in the morning, they were already wrapped yesterday, and the water was boiled, which is rice." Ye Sanniang got up, put on her shoes, stood in front of the kang and said.

"Good!" The kite lay down in peace.

Ye Sanniang went out of the backyard and walked to the front yard, and saw that her son was already standing under the corridor.

"I thought I had to call you so early?" Ye Sanniang looked at them with dark shining eyes and said.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, there is no moon, the sky is not dawn, and the sky is full of stars, twinkling at your fingertips.

"The sound of firecrackers woke us up, and we were startled." Ye Yanxing walked down the steps and walked in front of her.

"I was woken up, and I couldn't sleep and got up." Ye Luoxing jumped and landed in front of his mother.

"What about raspberries? Got up? Ye Sanniang's eyes fell on the side room, and she heard the door creak open.

"I'm up." Yao Raspberry walked over with the door.

"Then let's go!" Ye Sanniang said softly.

"Woo-woo......" clumsily wagged his tail and walked over.

"I can't forget you." Ye Sanniang said with a smile in her eyebrows.

After this guy was brought, he always followed them on his morning run.

Rejoice!

Ye Sanniang opened the door and walked out of the house, and the strong smell of sulfur came to her face.

"That's how many firecrackers have been set off! Such a big smell. Ye Luoxing pinched his nose and said in a thick nasal voice.

"This year is good, so I have spare money to buy firecrackers." Ye Sanniang's clear eyes were as clear as water and looked at the village road of the black hole.

"Yes! The year is not good, where is willing to buy firecrackers. Ye Yanxing smiled when he heard this, "Let's go!" ”

The road of morning running is so familiar that you can run with your eyes closed.

After running for about half an hour, the sky was slightly bright, and the four of them punched and sweated.

It's very exciting!

When she returned home after morning exercise, Ye Sanniang watched Xu Zhaodi sweep the gate with a broom.

"Down, down!" Ye Sanniang's inky eyes looked at Xu Zhaodi, who was not yet as tall as a broom, and said, "What are you doing sweeping the gate?" ”

"I said I was going to work." Xu Zhaodi stopped and said.

"You're thinly dressed, it's cold outside, get in." Ye Sanniang reached out and took the big broom in her hand and said, "And you can't sweep the floor before the fifth day of the Lunar New Year." ”

"Why?" Xu Zhaodi looked at her puzzled and said.
