At eight o'clock in the evening, Gu Mingli came to call Gu Mingtang and took the two babies to roll the ice, isn't there a well in the village, in winter, there is ice all around here.

Every year on Chinese New Year's Eve, adults will bring their children here to roll, which means that all the diseases are gone, and tomorrow is the first day of the new year, and the new year is healthy and healthy.

I don't know where the custom is.

Anyway, every year, Lu Liangzhou will take the children to roll.

As for that Gu Mingtang, don't mention it.

The original body is either noisy or noisy, or scolding and finding faults, in short, it is like being possessed by a rat in the gutter.

Not this year, after eating Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Lu Hui took Gu Mingtang's hand, red eyes, and quietly asked, "Mom, will our family still eat New Year's dinner like this next year?" ”

Gu Mingtang touched Lu Hui's head.

How to say that?

Do you promise to come down?

"As long as I'm here, I'll always be like this." She said so, felt it for a moment, and then said, "Mom will always be there, don't worry." ”

Lu Liangzhou, who was standing at the door, looked unpredictable.

Gu Mingli didn't expect that her brother-in-law's family was dispatched, and she was very frightened, but she suddenly took it for granted.

A group of people came to the well.

Gu Mingtang saw Zhou Zongming who rushed towards her and called her second aunt here.

saw the three girls of Ma Dafeng's family, the big one was called Ma Zhaodi, and saw Gu Mingtang smile shyly,

Lu Xueyan insisted that her parents hug her and roll together.

"Aren't you pie then?" Gu Mingtang funnily pinched the red ball on her hat, "Go yourself." ”

Ma Zhaodi ran over, and the ten-year-old girl actually volunteered to protect Lu Hui and Lu Xueyan by the side.

Gu Mingtang stood aside with Lu Liangzhou.

Lili and Xiaoxue ran over, the two big girls were playing with flowers in their hands, and they were giggling in front of Gu Mingtang, and Lu Liangzhou saw it, as if there were a lot of stars falling in Gu Mingtang's eyes.

After going back, Lu Liangzhou took the initiative to chop the stuffing with the noodles, while Gu Mingtang pondered preparing a few red envelopes.

Tomorrow is the first day of the new year, and I will give New Year's money.

Zhou Zongming will definitely come, Jiang Aiguo next door, Ma Zhaodi's girl don't look small, she has her own little wisdom, and she will come if she doesn't make trouble.

Not to mention his own niece Chunya.

Then prepare ten.

You can't just give it, you have to have a red envelope to put it.

There happened to be big red paper, and Gu Mingtang made ten red envelopes with paste.

Lu Liangzhou finished his work and entered the house, and saw Gu Mingtang loading a brand-new corner of the gross ticket inside.

"What time do you make dumplings?" Lu Liangzhou asked.

"It'll be packed in a minute, it's too late and they'll be sleepy."

Lu Hui was in high spirits, "I'm not sleepy, I'll have to go with Zong Ming to set off the cannon later." ”

The two babies looked at Gu Mingtang with blazing eyes, and Lu Xueyan asked, "Mom, can you give the New Year's money now?" ”

"No, it's not until midnight."

After putting away the red envelopes and making dumplings, Gu Mingtang asked Lu Liangzhou, "When are you leaving?" ”

Lu Liangzhou paused for a moment, raised his eyes to look at Gu Mingtang, who was pinching dumplings with interest, his eyes fell on her long eyelashes, and said lightly, "The third year of junior high school, it's not to go back to Lu's house, it's a business trip, and you can only go back to school before school starts." ”

Actually, he should have left tomorrow.

Recently, the situation has been a bit complicated, and he has to rush to the base to participate in a secret mission.

However, he found that Gu Mingtang was a woman who paid great attention to the sense of ceremony.

For example, what to do every day during the Chinese New Year, she meticulously follows it, and said that this is thousands of years of traditional culture and the sustenance of people's beautiful souls.

In the dumplings, she didn't put coins, but put celery leaves, and told the child that whoever eats it is a lucky baby.

And the second day of the Lunar New Year is the day when the married girl in the Northern Wilderness returns to her parents' home.

He never went back with her.

……

In the past, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, at the gate of Gu Mingtang's house, even the big yellow dog was reluctant to pass by, but this year, why is it so lively.

First, Zhou Zongming came to knock on the door, and when he entered the door, he knelt down for Gu Mingtang, kowtowed three times in a row, and shouted that the second aunt had a good New Year.

Then Lu Hui remembered what happened last night and had a bad premonition.

He began to correct, "Zong Ming, you can't call the second aunt, your mother and my mother are not close sisters, you shouted wrong." ”

"Is it wrong?" Zhou Zongming scratched his head blankly.

"Well, my brother is right, you shouted it." The little grandmother Bao Xueyan hurriedly mended the knife, "Your mother is not surnamed Gu, you can't call Aunt Ai." ”

Zhou Zongming blinked his eyes, he couldn't understand such a relationship, but he wanted to shout like this, so he discussed with Lu Hui and asked Gu Mingtang to be his second aunt.

Lu Hui was resolute, "No, it's not a kiss, you can't shout nonsense." ”

Gu Mingtang hurriedly took out the red envelope, and before that, Lu Hui and Lu Xueyan had already got it under the pillow.

Don't you have to put it under your pillow?

Lu Hui was diverted, because he didn't know how much New Year's money was in it, so he coaxed Zhou Zongming to open it, and only after finding out that it was a dime, he expressed his satisfaction, he and his sister were ten Gaga new dime tickets.

Lu Liangzhou took the children to visit the New Year.

Gu Mingtang took this opportunity to enter the space to get a pair of cotton gloves, Lu Liangzhou's gloves were worn out when the snow was clearing, and she had to find them for him.

didn't wait to get in, Ma Zhaodi really came.

She was the only one, she gave Gu Mingtang a New Year's greeting, she was very shy, but she didn't flinch, and gave Lu Xueyan a shuttlecock she had just made.

It's combed with castor beans, and it's made into strips, and it looks good to kick.

Gu Mingtang handed Ma Zhaodi a red envelope, Ma Zhaodi was so frightened that she turned her back on her hand, glanced at Gu Mingtang, and ran away, but after running a few steps and stopping, she said very timidly, "Thank you, Aunt Lu." ”

Aunt Lu?

What a fresh salutation.

"Come here, get the New Year's money, and why thank me?" Gu Mingtang didn't chase her, but he couldn't tell how this little girl could suddenly get close to her.

Zhou Zongming: That's the exception.

Ma Zhaodi said, "Aunt Lu, my dad beat my mom, only you stretched out your hand to pull it away." ”

Gu Mingtang, "That's what others haven't met, and if they do, they will help." ”

"No, my dad beat my mom in the yard, and many people saw it, but no one cared."

"Ma Zhaodi, do you blame them?" Gu Mingtang was interested.

Ma Zhaodi shook her head violently, "Don't complain, my mother said, helping you is a favor, not helping is your duty, my mother also said that she is not to blame for this life." ”

After speaking, Ma Zhaodi showed a big smile at Gu Mingtang, and then ran away.

That's her life, the sins she did in her previous life or the ones she owed him in her previous life......

Gu Mingtang found that many women in this village love to say these things.

It's normal, I can't fight against fate, and I can only accept my fate in the end.
