Lu An said: "You have studied the text of the oil seller, a truth, you will practice more, this is called making perfect." ”

After worshipping the ancestors and worshipping the Bodhisattva, they are all in a good mood, and the year of the two people is also festive.

It was cold outside, and as soon as the firecrackers were over, Lu An pulled her into the house, closed the door and pulled the latch, and ate the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

Lu An asked, "Do you want some soju tonight?" ”

Yu Guanzhi looked at the dishes on the table and said, "The dishes are good, have a drink." ”

Lu An poured two glasses of wine, put one in front of her, and asked, "Do you have any taboos for the New Year's holiday?" ”

Yu Guanzhi thought back and said no, "After eating the reunion dinner on Chinese New Year's Eve, I usually get together to watch the Spring Festival Gala and chat for a while. ”

Then she asked, "Do you still have taboos for the New Year?" ”

Lu An said: "It's a lot, for example, chopsticks can't fall to the ground, bones can't be said to be bones, and it is said to be wealth."

Don't say you can't eat, you have to say you've eaten, you can't pour water at the front door, you can't sweep the floor, you can't wash your hair, you can't comb your hair, you can't scold."

Seeing that she listened with relish, Lu An told her a lot of rural customs.

After listening, Yu Guanzhi smiled warmly: "I can't marry in the countryside in the future, and I am not qualified to be a rural daughter-in-law." ”

Lu An waved his hand: "In fact, just talking, there are children at home, chopsticks falling to the ground is always inevitable, we still have husbands and wives who often quarrel over who gets up to make Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, two lazy people always want each other to do it, eat ready-made by themselves, the result is often that the two of them do it while scolding, scolding and scolding until dawn." ”

"Come, Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, every year there is more, eat some fish, the meaning of fish is extremely good." Luan greeted.

"Okay."

Yu Guanzhi, who frequently plays chopsticks to Mao Xuewang, learns the same, eats every bowl and touches every bowl.

Since it was Chinese New Year's Eve, I had to hurry up early tomorrow morning, but I couldn't drink more, and one cup of shochu was enough, and then I concentrated on dealing with the dishes.

After the meal, Yu Guanzhi said to him: "I haven't had such an interesting New Year for many years, and it's really lively here." ”

Lu An said, "Then find a husband in Baoqing." ”

Later, he said: "Forget it, the people here are fierce, and it is estimated that no one can get into your eyes." ”

Yu Guanzhi smiled, didn't pick up the stubble, and got up to help clean up the dishes and chopsticks.

There is no TV at home, and they can't watch the Spring Festival Gala, so the two can only stare at each other, and finally Lu An opens the door and walks out: "The snow outside seems to be a little smaller, I'll go build a snowman." ”

Yu Guanzhi looked out the window, the snow was indeed much lighter than two hours ago, she took out a scarf from her suitcase and put it around her neck with great interest and said, "I'm with you." ”

Lu An handed him a vegetable shovel: "Let's divide the work, I'll roll the snowdrift, and you will shape it." ”

Yu Guanzhi took the vegetable shovel, and although he didn't speak, his eyes looked at him brightly.

The snow on the ground was thick, and he had two more strengths, so it was not too easy to roll the snowdrift, and after rolling the courtyard wall, he rolled out a head the size of a millstone.

Then he ran out of the courtyard, starting from the mouth of the alley, rolling all the way to the gate of the courtyard, and it was a large round ball with a diameter of about 50 centimeters. It's just that his mother's ball is big enough, and it took him a long time to get it to the yard.

By the time the two balls were overlapped, Luan was already sweating on his head.

Yu Guanzhi said to him: "You rest, and I'll take care of the rest." ”

Lu An asked worriedly: "Can you eat enough?" ”

Yu Guanzhi said: "Fortunately, my clothes are relatively warm, as long as it doesn't blow in the wind, it's fine." ”

Seeing that she was in high spirits, Lu An didn't spoil the fun, stomped her feet at the door, stomped off the snow on her body and feet, and went back to the house.

He plans to take a bath, and in the custom of returning to the county, taking a bath represents removing the old and welcoming the new, and the meaning is extremely good.

Even those lazy people who don't get wet all year round have to take a shower every year, twist their hair, lose their nails, and have a good year.

After taking a bath and changing his clothes, when he reappeared in the yard, the snowman had already become, with distinct facial features, eyes made of charcoal, an orange nose, two red ribbons in his mouth, and the scarf around Yu Guanzhi's neck was gone, and it was on the snowman's neck.

Hearing the sound of footsteps behind him, Yu Guanzhi, who was bending over to shape himself, didn't look back, and asked happily: "Is it good-looking?" ”

Lu An walked around the snowman and said, "It's good, but this bare head is almost meaningless." ”

Yu Guanzhi's gaze moved to the top of the snowman's head, "I didn't bring a winter hat. ”

Lu An's eyes slipped around, ran to the kitchen and took out the iron pot, put it on it, and it was all over.

Yu Guanzhi glanced at him, and then at the snowman, and the smile on his face bloomed like a flower, opening layer after layer.

She came out of the house with her camera and said to him, "Stand up and I'll take a picture of you." ”

"Okay."

Lu An leaned over, obeyed her command, and took four or five shots in a row.

"Give me the camera, and you can have a picture of the fruits of your labor." Luan reached out.

"Hmm."

Yu Guanzhi is a very reserved person on weekdays, but in the face of the snowman he created, he still happily posed a few not too exaggerated poses.

In the tube building, behind the window glass on the second floor, Liao Shiqi looked at the two people in the courtyard and asked the mother next to her: "Widow Zhang, are you jealous?" ”

Widow Zhang patted the dead child, who was neither big nor small, and turned her head back to the bed.

Liao Shiqi continued to watch condescendingly for a while, and finally closed the curtains and said to Widow Zhang on the bed: "I will also study hard in my next life." ”

Widow Zhang took the wool and beat it alive, "It's good to die, you are not the material for reading, and our family doesn't have that." ”

Liao Shiqi never treated her as a mother, and directly scolded her: "That's better than you crawling on someone's bed in the middle of the night." ”

These days have been used to her daughter, and Widow Zhang has long been invulnerable at this time.

Seeing that she couldn't hit her mother, Liao Shiqi sighed and said, "If you succeed that night, I can't really change the Liao family's inability to study." ”

Widow Zhang said: "Then it's not the Liao family's seed. ”

Liao Shiqi was so angry that she directly moved the portrait of her father and put it on the bed.

Widow Zhang's eyes fell on the black and white posthumous photo, and after a while, she suddenly said to her daughter: "You still have three months to finish your studies, and then we will leave Guifei Lane." ”

Liao Shiqi asked, "Where to go?" ”

Widow Zhang said: "Mom has already contacted your aunt, you go to Changshi to join her, and I will go back to your father's hometown." ”

Liao Shiqi asked: "You always wanted to be a city man before, why did you leave?" ”

Widow Zhang didn't make a sound for the first time, and only replied "tired of it" for a long time.

After getting busy, Lu An and Yu Guanzhi returned to the house, he pointed to the scarf on the snowman and asked:

"You won't take it back?"

Yu Guanzhi shook his head lightly: "Building a snowman is my childhood memory, it's not easy to have one time, I'm very happy today, leave it as a souvenir." ”

When she cleaned the snowflakes off her head, Lu An said, "The hot water is readily available now, or you should take a shower too, otherwise it will be cold." ”

Yu Guanzhi almost didn't hesitate and said yes.

Meng Qingchi is very clean on weekdays, loves to take a bath, the shower room has a bathtub, as long as you carry a few buckets of hot water and put it inside, and then close the door, it is very warm.

Lu An handed her a new towel: "The conditions are a little simpler, you will get down." ”

Yu Guanzhi didn't answer, but found a pile of things such as towels and shower gel from his suitcase, "It's already good, much better than I imagined, thank you." ”

It is very troublesome for women to take a bath in winter, and Lu An didn't expect it to be good right away, so he simply found the textbook and reviewed it on the sofa.

It may be the reason for the Chinese New Year, or it may be that the sound of firecrackers outside is too noisy, and it is difficult to calm down at this time, and the book is distracted when I look at it.

He thought of the eldest sister and the third sister, thought of Qingchi, and thought of many other people, in this life, in the previous life, and suddenly burst into tears when he thought about it, because he thought of his children, his children and grandchildren, and the more than 10 million in his bank card.

In his previous life, he was brainwashed every day by those self-media who claimed to be experts, always saying that the future economy would not be good, and always saying that the future would be difficult, which caused him to save money and save a lot of money.

But now, flying.

Alas, it's not easy to think about it, and I don't know if the confidante saw him fall, drank the red wine in the cup and left, or hugged himself and cried.

I don't know how long it has been, when Lu An was still immersed in his own world, Yu Guanzhi came out of the shower room and walked over.

Seeing that his face was full of tears, she was silent for a while, and then asked softly, "Homesick?" ”

Lu An stretched out his hand and rubbed it on his face, squeezed a smile and said, "No, I don't know how, I shed tears when I sat down, you said that the north wind didn't blow in, why did you get sand in your eyes?" ”

Seeing that he was still in a poor mood, Yu Guanzhi smiled, and then took out the eldest brother from the bedroom and handed it to him: "It's the New Year, call home." ”

Lu An didn't answer, "Thank you, I don't have a landline at home, and I have to go to another home to answer the phone, which is inconvenient for the New Year." ”

Yu Guanzhi asked: "Meng Qingchi's doesn't fight either?" ”

Lu An shook his head, "Then you can't fight." ”

Yu Guanzhi was stunned for a moment, then reacted, looked at him with meaningful eyes, and teased: "I hope Meng Qingchi will see you clearly as soon as possible, you are not a good match." ”

Looking at each other, Lu An retorted: "Comrade Yu Guanzhi, please be a good person, don't make a mess of yourself, if you look crooked and cracked, I will call this phone as soon as I say it." ”

Yu Guanzhi glanced at him with a faint smile, and did not quarrel with him, took out a small box of tea leaves and put it on the table and said:

"You invite me to celebrate the New Year, I invite you to drink good tea."

Leaning forward slightly, Lu An stared at the tea leaves for a while, but he didn't see anything, and couldn't help asking:

"What breed is this?"

Yu Guanzhi said: "Have you heard of the big red robe of Wuyi Mountain? ”

Lu An was surprised: "This is the big red robe?" ”

"Hmm."

Yu Guanzhi nodded lightly, "I don't have much, I usually drink a little when I'm hungry." ”

Lu An reached out and grabbed a small handful of tea leaves, put it in his palm and smelled it, urging her to quickly brew two cups and taste them.

Yu Guanzhi bowed his head and brewed a cup of hot water for him.

It was too hot, Lu An couldn't wait to blow the wind with his mouth, then took a small sip, and said at the end: "There is a strong fragrance of orchids?" ”

Yu Guanzhi said: "Yes, the most outstanding feature of the quality of Da Hong Pao is that the aroma is rich and orchid-scented. ”

The big red robe is very resistant, and after brewing three or four cups in a row, the fragrance of tea is still very strong.

There are too many people near Guifei Lane, the population is too dense, and the sound of firecrackers is endless, and it is difficult for the two of them to speak, and they have to be loud to hear.

chatted with their throats for a while, and then the two looked at each other silently and smiled, simply stopped talking, drank tea slowly, flipped through the book casually, and finally went to bed when it was time.

Yu Guanzhi brushed a handful of ear traces with his right hand, and asked him softly, "How many days will you get up tomorrow morning?" ”

Lu An said: "You can sleep more, get up at 6 o'clock, get up and eat, it's just dawn after eating." ”

Yu Guanzhi said yes quietly and entered the bedroom.

In the early hours of the morning, there was the sound of firecrackers, and many people of the older generation believed that the Chinese New Year's Eve was the time when all the gods and goddesses came down to enjoy the fireworks in the world, and if anyone could grab a lottery on the first day of the new year, then there would be everything in the coming year.

If you don't grab the lottery, then you have to open the door as soon as possible to welcome the gods, and please come home before the gods are full of food and drink, otherwise people will return to heaven when they are full, and they will not be able to catch anything.

After four o'clock in the morning, Lu An opened his eyes in a daze, turned sideways to the window and looked, hey, good guy, Guifei Lane has already been lit up, and his mother's co-authors are up.

When he got dressed and got out of bed, he walked into the kitchen and found that Yu Guanzhi was also up. The coal stove was blazing, with a pot of boiling water on it, and she sat by the charcoal fire and read a book.

Hearing the movement, Yu Guanzhi greeted with a smile: "Lu An, Happy New Year!" ”

"Happy New Year!"

Lu An replied with a salute, and then asked, "Why did you get up?" ”

Yu Guanzhi explained: "It's too noisy outside, I can't sleep. ”

In fact, he didn't sleep well, and he was woken up countless times in the middle, but most of the time, there was nothing to talk about.

Lu An said: "After eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, the sound of firecrackers will almost stop at dawn, and then we will make up for sleep together." ”

Yu Guanzhi glanced at him and didn't answer.

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu An realized that he had said the wrong thing, so he joked:

"Don't think too much about it, I didn't mean that, I belong to Sister Qingchi in my life."

Yu Guanzhi smiled and said nothing.

The dishes were prepared yesterday afternoon, and this morning they only need to be heated or stir-fried.

Since it is necessary to worship the ancestors and invite the Bodhisattva to eat, the dishes of the New Year cannot be reused, and the dishes eaten last night cannot be served on the table this morning, saying that these dishes have been eaten and are now empty.

Lu An saw that she loved Mao Xuewang last night and asked, "Do you still eat Mao Xuewang this morning?" ”

Yu Guanzhi replied to the question, and raised his head slightly: "How many days do you plan to stay here?" ”

Lu An looked up at the sky, "The snow has stopped, it is estimated that it will take two days, and it will take two days to have a car home." ”

Hearing this, Yu Guanzhi asked: "Is that the third year of junior high school?" ”

Lu An nodded: "Almost, there is still something at home, if you have a car in the third year of junior high school, you have to go." ”

Yu Guanzhi said: "Then I will also leave the third year of junior high school, there are still two days to go, I won't eat Mao Xuewang this morning, I want to eat the back pot meat you made, the back pot meat made by Meng Qingchi last time was very good, and I still remember the taste." ”

"Back to the pot, huh? It's simple. Lu An first washed his face with hot water, rinsed his mouth, and then got busy.

At this time, Yu Guanzhi completely lost the smell of fireworks that he didn't like on the outside, put down the book, and did his best to help him do something.

Lu An asked, "Are you usually so diligent at home?" ”

Yu Guanzhi said: "Occasionally, most of the time I eat ready-made. ”

Lu An looked back at her, "Those two days deserve praise." ”

Yu Guanzhi smiled knowingly: "The main thing is that the New Year with you is very interesting, and the novelty is still there." ”

"Huh? In this way, isn't the novelty gone, and you have returned to the nature of the eldest lady? What is it called, the limbs are not extended, the five bodies are not diligent, the mouth is opened when the meal comes, and the mouth is not opened if it does not come. ”

Yu Guanzhi smiled and peeled a bowl of garlic particles for him.
