The development of the economy makes the dishes of the farmer's New Year more and more abundant, and in previous years, the New Year is made from the willow side from snacks to large sauce duck, salted meat, etc., this year's table has a lot of fashionable dishes, even lobster, large yellow croaker these precious ingredients have appeared.

"Grandma, such a hearty, such a big lobster will be very expensive."

"It's not expensive, it's only more than 20 yuan, and this big yellow croaker is hundreds in previous years, and I have to ask someone to buy it, and this year there is only 30 in the town."

"It's all artificially farmed, but everyone has money, eat fresh, and taste what the lobster and big yellow croaker used to be eaten only by wealthy people." When Yang Liufang heard Abba's words, he remembered an ancient poem he learned when he was a child: "In the old days, Wang Xie Tang Qianyan flew into the homes of ordinary people." It's just different from the background of the swallows flying away caused by the curtain call of Wang Xie's family at that time, this is because the reform and opening up has promoted the economic development of the whole country, and the lives of the people have undergone earth-shaking changes.

Thinking of this, why not also by the spring breeze of reform and opening up, whether it is to start the workshop to make antique furniture Eight Immortal Table, Case, Luohan bed, etc., these in the Ming and Qing Dynasties only dignitaries or landlords and gentry have large pieces of furniture, a few years ago became a must-have in the rural home in the northwest, and now, the factory production of Simmons, sofas and other household products in developed countries in Europe and the United States, has gradually been applied to the hotels and hotels of Xizhou City University, There are also many customers who have built a new house or have children who need to get married to order from the supply and marketing cooperatives, as far as Yang Liufang knows, they can't finish the big orders of hotels and hotels, and these retail orders seem to have been rejected.

At the dinner table, a family of four chatted about the development of Xizhou and Wenzhou, and Yang's father saw that his godson and his own son worked together, and the car drove back, and now it was parked at the door of the house, although it was not a good car in Wenzhou, but it was enough to make himself proud in the village. After drinking a few more glasses, the old man said that he would renovate a two-story house for them, and the gate would be opened wider, so that the car could drive back to the courtyard directly.

"Your Abba has drunk too much, and has been poor for most of his life, so I'm happy to see that you have accomplished." Mother Yang said.

"Abba, you don't have to worry about renovating the house, my brother and I will do it." Li Tongfu comforted Yang's father.

"Abba, Grandma, what my brother said is that since we want to renovate, we will do it at one time, and we will build three layers at a time. When the time comes, let my master move back too, he is also older, Xiaoxia has also gone to college, there is nothing to worry about. When the time comes, I'll install the phone and everything for you, and I'll rest assured that you will live together. ”

"Yes, yes, let your master and sister move back. Hey, after all, people sold their ancestral homes for your development, since Xiaoxia went to Hangzhou to study, they are not familiar with each other in Wenzhou City, and they don't even have anyone to talk to. Why don't you come back, we talk, we ride the yellow croaker cart to our own fields together, and we can exercise. ”

"Grandma, I'll go see them tomorrow, and I don't know how they're prepared."

"Ready, Xiaoxia has come and gone, the child is filial, and she is more generous when she goes to college. I brought you Abba the West Lake Longjing and bought me lotus root flour and a silk scarf. The old lady said with a happy expression.

"Alas! We have nothing but beef and mutton in the northwest, so we brought a box of lilies, and we will keep half of them, and I will bring half of them to Master. ”

"Bring two more jars of rice wine brewed by your grandma, your master likes to drink it."

"Got it, Abba. I'll pour you water. ”

"I'll go." Li Tongfu put down the dishes and chopsticks to pour water.

After dinner, the sound of fireworks and firecrackers in the village gradually sounded, Yang Liufang turned up the sound of the TV to the maximum, listened to the songs in the Spring Festival party, and then set off a lot of fireworks and firecrackers in the yard with Li Tongfu and Abba and Auntie.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Yang Liufang and Li Tongfu got up early, because there were young people in the village who came to pay New Year's greetings to Abba and Grandma, and they wanted to participate in the reception. This is rare in previous years, although Yang Liufang's parents are older, but the economic foundation determines the superstructure, and this eternal truth is applicable everywhere. Yang's father took out the West Lake Longjing that Liu Xia brought to him to entertain the guests, and Yang's mother also packed out the melon seeds brought back by Yang Liufang from the northwest, so that the people who came to pay New Year's greetings could eat as much as they wanted, and they would bring some when they left.

Until ten o'clock, the talents of New Year's greetings gradually dispersed, and Yang Liufang pulled Li Tongfu and hurriedly drove to Wenzhou's master's house to pay New Year's greetings. Li Tongfu was reluctant to go, he felt that Yang Liufang was given to the master for a hundred years, and he didn't follow the past for any reason. Helplessly, Yang Liufang said that he wanted to accompany the master to drink, and asked Brother to drive for him, so he followed.

There are a lot of cars on the street, all of them are relatives to pay New Year's greetings, perhaps because of vanity, even if it is a kilometer or two away from the neighboring villages, they all drive over. Yang Liufang and Li Tongfu's technology was immature, and the scarcity of land in the south of the Yangtze River made the countryside relatively narrow, and the car was delayed for a while, and they did not arrive at the master's house until noon. Because he hadn't told the master about the purchase of the vehicle in the factory and himself, Yang Liufang surprised the master and made the master happy, knocked on the door and hid in the car.

When the master and the master heard the knock on the door, they felt that Yang Liufang should arrive, so they hurriedly opened the door with Liu Xia to greet them, but they didn't expect to open the door only to see a brand-new Santana parked at the door, and muttered: "Who, no eyes, the car blocking our door for the New Year." Then, like all people living in a strange city, he hung up and closed the door again.

Liu Xia was still smart, turned around and opened the door to look at the license plate, and found that it was "West A", and shouted excitedly: "Abba, Grandma, it's Brother." The old couple came back again. Yang Liufang laughed and got up from the seat he had put down in the car and got out of the door.

"Master, Master, let's give you New Year's greetings."

Only then did the master come over excitedly and hold his hand: "My son, all 19 years old, is still as naughty as when he first entered the apprenticeship when he was a child. ”

Master went over to shake hands with Li Tongfu, and everyone went to open the trunk to get gifts, there were two jars of home-brewed rice wine, half a box of lilies, half a sheep, and a piece of cooked beef.

"Oh, every time I come back, I bring so much, and the two of us can't finish eating, and your sister shouts to lose weight every day, and she doesn't even eat meat." The teacher rebuked him dotingly.

When I was about to enter the door, Master asked, "So new, newly bought?" ”

"Yes, Master, I bought two of them, and this one is in my own name. There is another one in the factory. ”

"Oh, you kid, you just had two dollars and tossed away. It is better to save more, so as not to be stretched thin. ”

"Master, don't worry, we will never be as embarrassed as before. There are still millions of dollars in the bank, and our family spends 10,000 yuan a day, and we can't spend it in two years. ”

"Then you have to save, as the old saying goes, making money is like a swallow pecking at the mud, and spending money is like a river bursting its banks."

"Master, I made a note of it."

"Brother, I want to learn to drive, Liu Xia said with a jar of wine next to Yang Liufang and tilted her head."

"Okay, wait a while to pay New Year's greetings to Master and Master, and you can open it casually. Don't move, the key is for you. Saying that, Yang Liufang took out the car keys from his pocket with one hand and put them in the pocket of his junior sister's coat.

"Ah Fang, you, you are used to her. Not presentable. ”

"That is, just this one sister, she is the youngest in the family, poor and rich daughters, and we are not short of money, so we can't get used to it."

"That's it, Grandma." The two of them argued as they walked into the living room. When Shi Niang waited for them, she had already prepared four cold dishes, and after beckoning them to take a seat, she asked Liu Xia to go to the kitchen to help her with the hot dishes. It was busy until one o'clock in the afternoon before everyone sat around to eat. As in previous years, before the meal, Yang Liufang worshiped the tablet on the back wall of the living room of the master's house, and then said New Year's greetings to the master and his wife.

"Now that I'm older, you can't look down on the little New Year's money given by Master and Master. So I don't dig it. My wife saved up money for your marriage. ”

"How's your personal concern?"

"What's the matter?"

"Get married."

"Ah, Master, I'm just 19, I didn't think about it."

"It's big, it's time to think about it, Ah Fu, what about you?"

"Uncle, I'm busy every day, how can I have time to think about it, let's talk about it when my career is bigger."

"Aren't there a lot of people in the supply and marketing cooperative? Still so busy? ”

"Well, we have recently opened a tannery, and I still have to help your apprentice take care of the daily affairs of several companies, and I also have to go on a business trip, busy."

"Oh, it's better for young people to be busy, anyway, everyone doesn't have the same age of marriage as it used to be."

While chatting, Yang Liufang accompanied the master for a drink, and unconsciously talked about the renovation of the house at home.

"Master, our family's ancestral house is going to be bought, will the buyer still sell it? Whatever it takes. ”

"I guess I can't, now we used to make Yongtai Electric Appliances for people to make transportation frameworks, they have become bigger, it is said that there are sales points all over the country, and they have become the richest man in Yueqing. Let's buy it, and people don't necessarily sell it. ”

"Oh, then Master, I want to renovate the house at home, and my Abba and Aunt said that you will go back to live when the renovation is completed. After my sister went to school and left, you two didn't know each other well here, and you didn't even have anyone to talk to, so you can go to the fields to plant something in your hometown. ”

"Well, uncle and aunt, after you go back, we will install a phone for you at home, so that our brothers and sisters can call at any time when they are outside, and they can rest assured." Li Tongfu said.

"Okay, I don't want to live here after your sister gets admitted to college. Your mother and I worked in the fields for a while, and our health was better. Shi Niang also interjected.

"Well, Master, I plan to build three floors, the first floor is a garage, the second floor is a kitchen, living room, bathroom and bedroom, and the third floor is also a bedroom, and we will come back to live."

"In this way, you can put your things on the second floor, and you won't have to move things to higher places on typhoon days." Li Tongfu echoed.
