Chapter 442: The Taste of the New Year
"This way, this way, the lantern is hung." In order to create the taste of the New Year, He Min and the others went to the county seat once and brought back a large number of New Year's decorations. Lanterns, blessing characters, door gods, spring couplets, a lot, are now loaded high in the square of the base.
In fact, the busy work and study in the past and the pressure of life have made the taste of the New Year weaker and weaker. People in the city are less and less able to feel the joyful taste of the New Year when they were children. Leng Yang himself didn't care much about it before, he just took advantage of the New Year's discount to buy food.
But in this last days, when Leng Yang mentioned that everyone had a New Year, everyone took action. The college students who didn't care about the New Year at all before, and the golden collar Li Zhetian, who was tortured during the New Year, all happily participated.
The thousands of years of Chinese tradition naturally have its meaning, and in this cruel last days, people can feel that life is not easy. The red lantern that I didn't care about before, it seems to have become warm in people's hearts at this time. The couplet that hung on the door without looking at it a few times before was also silently recited by many people in their hearts at this time.
In that time there was peace and tranquility, no matter how hard and tiring it was, it was better than now, not to mention the most important festival of the year. The reason people are so greedy today to set things up and create an atmosphere is because they want to remember their past, the one that brought tears to their eyes.
Zhou Yu, He Xiaoxiao, these girls are responsible for pasting Spring Festival couplets on the doors of each dormitory, "Triumphant farewell to the old year, horses welcome the new year." The fiery Spring Festival couplets were pressed against the door by the girls, and each of them had a happy smile on their faces. In this apocalyptic world, it seems like a dream when I still enjoy the New Year again.
Women are responsible for the delicate little work, while men naturally have to take the lead. "It's crooked, it's crooked, Jiang Jianhong, it's taller over there." People are hanging large decorations in the square of the base, and behind them, a crane is lifting a huge "Fu" character, Li Tianbao sits in the cab meticulously comparing the height.
"Hey, hey, this flower bed is good, it's beautiful and edible." Wu Shanwei moved the flower pot while tearing off a chrysanthemum by himself, putting it in his mouth and chewing it gently. A large number of carnations and asters have been moved to form neat flower beds, which were all used by the Ministry of Agriculture as a reserve, but of course they are not used much now.
In the past, people had eaten everything they could in the mountains and forests, and flowers and plants were already very good food. But they want to go back to the old days, to the real old days, and these flowers were only used as decorations. They're on their way, aren't they?
Li Jiaguo smiled, ignored him, but beckoned his comrades-in-arms, and everyone worked together to put a red Chinese knot-shaped lighting in the center of the flower bed. This Chinese knot is more than two meters tall, and when the electricity is turned on, a flash of red light illuminates everyone's heart.
Guo Mingfan was not idle at this time, he was taking Liu Ying and them to wrap small strings of colored lanterns on the lampposts of the street lamps. It's a pity that there are too few trees in the base, so I need to transplant some in the future, and the elm leaves can also be eaten.
Just beside Liu Ying, Qi Dan and Yi Minghao and a group of junior high school students wanted to come forward to help, but they were resolutely pushed away. "A few little guys, now is the time for you to play, now you are not our comrades-in-arms, but our juniors."
Several junior high school students are very unaccustomed to the clothes on their bodies, and they are wearing brand-new, well-fitting brand-name children's clothes that Liu Ying selected for them. They are no longer interested in these outfits, which they used to envy. In the last days they seem to be more accustomed to the black coat and fiery red helmet.
"Teacher, let's help, everyone is working, we don't feel comfortable doing things." Yi Minghao's little face was flushed, they had always regarded themselves as warriors. They had forgotten that they were still fourteen years old.
"Go, go, you guys' task is to give us a good time, play to our heart's content. If you are happy, Liu Ying will be happy. Guo Mingfan grabbed his little comrade-in-arms with a solemn face, "Enjoy the days we have and the happiness we have, this is life." ”
This year, people can get a place to survive in the cracks of the zombie group, but who can know what will happen in the future. Thinking about the hundreds of millions or even billions of zombies in the entire Huaxia, people shudder. They want to enjoy their day to the fullest, because at this time, they are still alive.
Just when Qi Dan and the others seemed to understand, the little girl's crisp laughter came from a distance, and the joy in this sound was like a stream flowing into everyone's hearts. Yan Junjun was chasing Li Mingming in front of her in a snow-white trumpet down jacket, and the two children laughed and ran away.
Everyone who is working can't help but look at them, people's genes are deeply engraved with the love for children, these little people's every move can warm people's hearts. Children are the greatest hope of mankind, and with them there will be a future for mankind.
Chai Lubing finally turned his phoenix eyes around, and continued to hang various lights between the buildings. Now she's fully integrated into the team. Even when he was checking his body, he took the initiative to promote the benefits of the team to Gong Xiuli and them. Maybe it's a demon, but such a demon full of temptation, Chai Lubing is willing to fall into the devil's cave.
The entire base became prosperous under the people's costumes, and even the city walls were lit up one by one by firewood, so that the whole new base slowly began to become the same as before, full of festive atmosphere.
is different from the people who are singing and laughing in the base, "Huhu, Wang Dong, you kid will wait, huhu, wait for yourself to consciously make three bottles of wine to compensate for everyone, huhu, make amends!" "The bald man is sweating profusely now, and he can't speak.
"Yes!" "That's it, that's it, you're talking about it, we're tired enough." Several people around him echoed loudly.
Wang Dong beside him kept smiling, "There is no problem, there is no problem, it's all my fault." "They are now shoveling snow on the highest hill, and the melee group and Zhou Lei are in a row. There are also two trucks parked on the road, ready to be used to load the snow and ice.
Originally, it rarely snowed in the Jiangcheng area in winter, and people didn't think about building a snowman at first. But Wang Dong, a man from the Northeast, suddenly said that there is no snow on the mountain, now it's okay, Xiang Yuning's eyes are shining. Then, there is no then.
A group of big men were driven up the hill in the bitterly cold winter, and they worked hard to shovel snow and bring it back to the base, ready to build a few snowmen. In fact, everyone is willing to do so, but Wang Dong can't let him go easily.
Li Sisi and Qin Qing are really getting up early and greedy for darkness these days, preparing all kinds of food, and they have to have a New Year. This is the best reward for people's life in the previous year, and the best wishes for future life.
He Min and Zhang Limeng sat together, and in front of them was a large pile of dumpling wrappers and flour. The women's calloused hands did not pick up the guns, but wrapped the dumplings again like housewives.
From time to time, they laughed and talked about interesting things in the team, letting white flour splash between their eyebrows, dyeing these delicate women who once did not touch the spring water into white people. From time to time, there were people shuttling around them, and the whole kitchen was brightly lit, and the scattered powder gave it a hazy beauty.
"Ahh Shi Yifan casually threw a catfish weighing about four catties onto the boat, a little frustrated. In the cold wind, he was naked, soaking in the icy river water, but his heart was hot.
The Chinese New Year, there are more than every year, there are naturally fish, and the Admiralty is determined to find a big fish to give the team a good omen. More than 20 of them showed their magical powers, fishing, using nets, and going down to the river in person, almost stirring up hundreds of meters of the riverbank.
In fact, these are symbols, and people know them. But they are willing to put in the effort for the sake of this symbol. Because they are living a good life now, and it is worth their dedication.
A sound of water woke up Shi Yifan's contemplation. He only saw that the fishing line in Wen Haidong's hand, which was just a few dozen meters away, was stretched straight, and there was a large and constant struggle on the water. ", Haidong steady, we're here, this is a big guy!"
A few team members on the side kicked off their military boots and jumped into the river without even taking off their clothes. The fish was a meter long, to say the least, and they had to hurry to help so that it wouldn't get off the hook. For these crew members who live by the river, they can do it in the winter, but they won't do it if it's not for something important.
Compared to the people who decorate and arrange food at the base, the personnel of the technical department are much harder, and they are the only ones who have a dangerous job. With the sound of explosion, an orange paintball was shot into the sky. Draw a long trail in the sky, shining like a bright meteor.
Looking at the fireworks bombs that were shining in the air, Yan Shibin and their darkened faces all smiled. They have firecrackers, but there are no fireworks in the county, so they have to make them themselves, which took them two days.
Leng Yang didn't expect that he was just fantasizing about a New Year, and everyone would make it out decently. Looking at the strings of colored lanterns in the base that began to be electrified, looking at the red lanterns and sparkling Spring Festival couplets in front of each dormitory, Leng Yang really smelled the smell of the New Year, the strong smell of the New Year.
Unlike before, when he was alone, this New Year, there will be many, many people to spend with him. There is a cute little Lori, his loyal comrades-in-arms, his intimate face that never gives up on life and death, and many people who are looking forward to this new year in the last days with him.
