In the afternoon, the whole compound is very lively.

Even Uncle Wang's family, which is usually very deserted, also came over with their children to celebrate the New Year together because of the Chinese New Year.

Wang Xuewu also joined the frolic in the compound.

It was more than four o'clock, Yang Xiaole felt that the time was almost up, so he said hello and rode to Suo Ye's place.

Walking on the road, I can already hear people setting off firecrackers from time to time.

"Master! Let's go! ”

When he entered the house, he looked at Suo Ye, who was sitting at the top of the hall, and said hello with a smile.

The old man was wearing a brocade dress at this time, a bit like the old men who used to watch TV wore it.

Also wearing a hat.

The hair is neatly combed and there is no excess hair exposed.

Incense candles had been lit on the incense table, and several fruit bowls had been set up, and some pastries were inside.

"Okay, let's go."

The old man nodded slightly, stood up, and picked up the cane next to him.

Yang Xiaole rolled his eyes when he saw this: "Your old body is very good, why do you have to be on crutches if you have nothing to do?" Really. ”

Hearing this, the old man glared at him: "Take the things." ”

As he spoke, he looked at something next to him.

"Wow! How willing? ”

The confectionery is Kyoto eight pieces.

The sauce elbow of the Tianfu.

BJ halva, one of the three famous sugars.

At the current price of pastries and sweets, that's all, dozens of dollars.

Eight pieces of pastries are one of the most expensive, 7 pieces and 6 pounds.

He was not polite, he carried things with a smile, and said with a smile: "Master, where did you buy this sauce elbow?" ”

Don't say that the meat wants a ticket.

It's a time-honored store, and ordinary people can't buy it if they want to.

"Find someone to buy it!"

The old man spoke, and walked outside on crutches.

Yang Xiaole naturally followed.

After coming outside and locking the door, he rode the old man to his home.

When I came back, there were still some people in the courtyard who were cooking.

"Xiaole? This is your master! ”

Aunt Wang was busy there, and when she saw the two of them coming in, she asked with a smile.

"Ang, this is my master! Just picked it up. ”

Yang Xiaole responded with a smile.

Seeing this, Aunt Wang smiled and said hello: "Brother, happy New Year!" ”

Seeing this, Suo Ye hugged his fist and smiled: "Happy New Year!" ”

"Aunt Wang, let's go in first!"

Yang Xiaole saw that his father and mother heard the news, and he hurriedly said hello.

"Hey, okay, you're busy!"

Aunt Wang agreed with a smile and continued to be busy.

"Old man (old man)! Happy New Year! ”

Yang Guangzhi and Wang Qiuju came out and shouted at Suo Ye.

"Hey, Happy New Year!"

Suo Ye responded one by one with a smile.

Yang Guangzhi handed the old man a cigarette and said with a smile: "Come in quickly, the meal is ready, just wait for you to be old, this is the first time we have met." ”

Seeing this, Suo Ye went in with a smile.

"Grandpa Suo (Grandpa)"

After coming in, everyone in the family was waiting in the house, and the eldest brother and sister-in-law also got up to greet them.

The incense and candles in the house have also been lit.

There was a strong sandalwood fragrance, and it was a little smoky, but fortunately, the curtain at the door was lifted.

"Okay, sit, let's all sit!"

Seeing this scene, Suo Ye greeted with a smile.

It's been a long time since it's been this lively.

"Old man, sit down, Xiaole, hurry up and get the cannonball, and eat when you release it."

Yang Guangzhi greeted the old man and explained to Yang Xiaole.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole smiled and agreed: "Okay, I'll put it, you eat first." ”

After saying that, he went to the back room, took a long cannon and went out, and went directly to the alley outside the gate.

The compound is not allowed to be put in.

lest there be a fire.

At this time, it was close to evening, and the sound of firecrackers outside was increasing, and the smell of sulfur was in the air.

"Roar, don't dare to let it go!"

After coming out, I saw that Qu Ying was looking for the waste paper next to her, piling it up at the lead.

Prepare the paper for a while and let the paper burn for a while.

This is who in the compound has already set off firecrackers.

Seeing this, Qu Ying turned around and nodded: "Well, this point won't up." ”

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole walked over.

Directly picked up the firecracker head, and said with a smile: "You wipe a match, I'll give you some light." It only makes sense to order it yourself, or I'll give you something. ”

Qu Ying bit her lip and said entangledly: "Can you do it?" Don't blow you up! ”

"Hey! How can a man say that he can't! It's okay, let's do it. ”

Hearing this, Qu Ying naturally didn't know about this stalk, so she wiped one with a match.

Yang Xiaole stepped up, lit it, and threw the firecracker aside.

Suddenly there was a crackling sound.

And Qu Ying had already covered her ears and ran aside.

Yang Xiaole smiled when he saw this, took his own firecracker, and lit it behind him.

After a loud sound, he walked over: "Let's go, let's go in, by the way, where are you going at night?" I'll take you to play, and I'll have to send my master at night. It's nothing to do anyway. ”

Celebrating the New Year alone is actually quite lonely.

He felt the need to spend some time with her.

Qu Ying hesitated for a moment, but still shook her head: "Forget it, you can go back quickly." ”

Yang Xiaole was just about to speak, when he saw Zhao Shitang coming over with firecrackers.

smiled and said hello: "Uncle Zhao, set off firecrackers!" Ready? ”

"Ang, it's done, you have set off the artillery to eat, and you have also put it away?"

"Well, put it away, you're busy, let's go in first!"

"Hey, okay, let's go!"

Say hello, Yang Xiaole took Qu Ying in. Walking on the side of the Hanging Flower Gate, Yang Xiaole said in a low voice: "In this way, when you see me going out, go to Xidan, take the main road, and I will come to you after I pick up the master." I'll take you somewhere in a moment. You go late, twenty minutes late. ”

After sending the old man, it is impossible to leave immediately.

So let her be late.

After speaking, without waiting for Qu Ying's consent, he went to his house.

"Hey!"

Qu Ying watched him leave and wanted to shout, but this guy actually ignored himself.

Seeing that there were still people in the courtyard, she had no choice but to go back.

"Hurry up, brother, why is it so slow!!"

When Kiko saw him coming, she hurriedly shouted.

Yang Xiaole glared at him, sat next to his mother in the left-hand position, the eldest brother and sister-in-law sat opposite the two, and the three little guys sat down.

The old man naturally sat in the middle, and Yang Guangzhi sat next to him.

"Alright, let's eat!"

Yang Guangzhi's words, everyone began to eat.

In fact, everyone usually eats these dishes, but today's New Year is very lively, and the mood is different.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole picked up the Arctic Ocean soda in his hand and smiled: "Come, let's touch one together first!" Happy New Year. ”

"Happy New Year!"

Everyone stood up with a smile when they saw this.

Soda, naturally, is the old rule every year, and when the soda is about to end in autumn, I buy some and save it for the New Year.

The people drank from what they had in their hands.

"Master, I toast you!"

Yang Xiaole didn't sit down, but directly took a little wine in his hand and walked to the side behind the old man.

smiled and said, "Master is here today, I'll drink a little bit!" I wish you good health, all the best, happiness such as the East China Sea, and longevity than Nanshan! ”

Seeing this, the old man smiled and touched one with him.

Yang Xiaole lowered the cup by half a level, and after touching one, he took a sip.

Now his physical fitness is no worse than that of an adult.

Still, he only took a sip.

This thing has a spicy throat after drinking too much, and my head will still be dizzy, and I have already found it when I drank with Chen Zixing that day.

That was also the only time I drank more.

The old man smiled and took a sip.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole didn't stop, and smiled at Yang Guangzhi and the two: "Dad, mother, I also salute you two elders, it's hard work." ”

Yang Guangzhi nodded with a smile.

And Wang Qiuju naturally raised the juice in her hand.

Next is naturally the eldest brother and sister-in-law.

As for a few small ones, forget it.

"Big brother, I won't drink anymore, you can accompany Master and Dad to drink some, don't worry, this wine doesn't hurt after drinking."

Yang Xiaole greeted his eldest brother.

Anyway, this wine is filled with well water and peach blossoms, and it can't be a bad person, otherwise he wouldn't have persuaded him to drink.

Drinking too much is not a good thing.

Especially if you can't drink it, you can't drink it.

The eldest brother smiled and nodded: "It's okay, I know." ”

Then the wine table began to be lively.

Yang Guangzhi gave the old man a glass and said with a smile: "Old man, I will toast you." ”

The two took a sip.

Then he smiled and said: "Old man, Xiaole is still young and not very sensible, so you can take care of it more." ”

The old man smiled and said, "It's okay, when people are old, there is someone to talk to, and they are not so lonely." ”

"Grandpa Suo, I heard Sister Tiantian say, brother apprentice, or playing tricks!"

Suddenly, Xiaoli muttered.

Everyone was curious.

Yang Xiaole glared at her angrily: "Dare to demolish your brother's platform, right?" Audacious? ”

Xiaoli stuck out her tongue when she saw this.

"What's wrong? What's the trick? ”

Wang Qiuju was curious.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just that the master tested me at that time,......"

Immediately told what had happened.

The few people who listened were there laughing.

And Yang Guangzhi and the others frowned.

In their opinion, apprenticeship is no different from that of their father.

How can there be such an apprentice?

Seeing this, the eldest sister snickered: "Xiaole is really capable of doing this kind of thing, he has a good brain." ”

Laughing as he spoke.

Seeing this, Suo Ye also smiled: "It's okay, child, if you don't be naughty at all, you won't have much success in the future." ”

Yang Xiaole rolled his eyes.

"Master, is it appropriate for you to say that? No one in the entire compound is taller than me, and it's a shame to say it. ”

Seeing this, the old man ignored him, and raised his glass with a smile and took a sip with Yang Guangzhi.

Xizi muttered there: "Then I must not have the best chance of the second brother, I don't have other skin." ”

"Smack!"

"Oh, brother, why are you beating me? How can there be a child who beats a child in the New Year. ”

Kiko touched her head, a little reluctantly.

Yang Xiaole rolled his eyes: "Nonsense, that's Daddy, I'm your brother, what's wrong with beating you?" ’

This caused a burst of laughter from the others.

"Humph!"

Kiko snorted and ate her meal quietly.

Didn't dare to provoke him again.

Yang Xiaole took a bite of sauce elbow.

In other words, the taste made by this chef is different, and it is really delicious.

A group of people, chatting while eating.

There are more than a dozen dishes, and they are all hard dishes.

In the end, I still didn't finish it.

However, if you don't fire on the first day of the new year, you can only eat these, and it's not a good thing to finish eating.

After eating, the old man took out a bunch of red paper bags.

In addition to his father and mother, one person gave a red envelope, and even the eldest brother and sister-in-law had it.

The eldest brother and sister-in-law naturally refused, but unfortunately they couldn't.

In the words of the old man: "The elder cannot give away, and it is disrespectful."

In the end, I reluctantly accepted it.

It's not small, three dollars per person.

Yang Xiaole took this three yuan, and this money will definitely appreciate in the future, but if there are more of these things, it will not work.

It's a good idea to keep a little collection.

It's not just three dollars, but everything else is worth the same amount.

But it's not like gold, it's worthless once you have too much.

The meal took a long time, and by the time it was over, it was already dark.

Kiko and the others went to play outside.

After waiting for a while for every household to finish eating, they began to "leave the New Year", and the eight pieces of Beijing and halva brought by Suo Ye in their hands were naturally in their hands.

Rest for an hour, drink some tea, and eliminate food.

The old man is going back.

Wang Qiuju saw that the old man was leaving, and explained to Yang Xiaole: "You ride slowly for a while, if you can't do it, go and bring your Uncle Li's board car over and pull your master back." ”

Drinking at night, a few people didn't know that it was okay to drink this wine, although it was already under control, but the old man really drank a lot.

People are a little dizzy.

Yang Xiaole naturally agreed: "Okay, I know." I'll send Master there! ”

After saying hello, he took the old man out.

The family sent the old man to the alley at the entrance of the compound, and watched the two leave before going back.

Yang Xiaole rode the car and observed the old man's state.

Not bad.

Didn't drink high.

But that's pretty much it.

Sent the old man to the place, gave him some water to wash, and confirmed that there was no problem, and then left.

The car rode along the main road.

After a while, I saw Qu Ying walking on the road.

"Crunch!"

The car stopped directly on the side of the other party.

Seeing this, Qu Ying said angrily: "It's so late, why are you still coming out!" ”

Yang Xiaole signaled to the pedestrians on the road when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Look at it, aren't there a lot of people!" ”

After eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, some people will go to relatives' houses to "say goodbye".

This kind of relatives generally live very closely.

Qu Ying rolled her eyes: "Quite a few? There are a lot of them! ”

Having said that, she still asked curiously, "Where are you going?" ”

Yang Xiaole looked around and said with a smile: "Actually, there is no place to go, I'll take you to the root of the city wall......"

"What are you doing there?"

Qu Ying was puzzled for a moment, but still got into the car.

Yang Xiaole rode towards Fuchengmen and rode away.

After a while, he came to a half-demolished city wall, and went up with her with a flashlight and a sack.

It is very close to the former elementary school.

Not far away are the inhabitants of the base of the city wall.

Since the city walls of Sijiu City were ready to be demolished, they have not been demolished one after another.

The base of the city wall is more than 20 meters wide, and the top is also more than 10 meters.

Because the walls are made of blue bricks on both sides and rammed earth structures in the middle, they have now been planted with food by various units.

"Hey, it's cold, what are you doing here?"

Qu Ying felt the cold wind on the city wall and asked curiously.

Yang Xiaole took a kettle and handed it to her: "Take a sip, warm up, brother will take you to watch the fireworks." ”

"Fireworks?"

Hearing this, Qu Ying's eyes lit up.

took something and took a sip, then reacted and hit him: "What nonsense are you talking about?" Who do you want to call you brother? ”

"Hey, hey!"

Yang Xiaole smiled, ignored her, and pulled her along the city wall for a long time, and then took out the contents of the bag.

I'm worried that someone will come over and run away.

Firework.

It has been there since ancient times, it has been in the Republic of China period, and it is naturally impossible to do without it now.

The ceremonial flower factories in the countryside of Sijiucheng are now all exported.

It's just that because of the shortage of fireworks now, and fireworks are dangerous goods, people can only buy firecrackers.

Or a child's scrub, a cannon, or a hand-held type.

If you want to watch fireworks, you have to watch a large-scale event organized by the government.

But there is another category of people that can be bought.

That is, it can only be bought by overseas Chinese or some military compounds, and it can be regarded as some special care for these people.

It's just that you need to register to buy this kind of thing.

lest thou take it and do evil.

In these years, if anyone holds a sky monkey, it is the most beautiful boy.

When things were ready, he walked over and stood in the middle of the wall, which was twelve meters high, and the buildings on both sides were very low.

It is common to see the two people sticking out of the middle.

"Is it cold?"

After coming over, he hugged each other and kissed each other, and asked with a smile.

Qu Ying shook her head: "It's not cold, what is this?" Sweet? ”

"Hey, good stuff, don't tell you."

After saying that, he pulled her over.

He handed her the firework he was holding.

I took one that only burned and glowed, and lit it.

"Hee-hee~"

Qu Ying was holding something and shaking it there, with a hint of joy on her face.

Yang Xiaole smiled when he saw this, these things were all bought by him from Hong Kong Island, and the manufacturer was still from the mainland.

As for the home, he didn't get it.

It's too ostentatious.

It's still okay to put a sister.

"Have you played it before?"

Hearing this, Qu Ying nodded lightly: "Well, I played with it when I was a child, and that was when I was six years old." That's it, but I've only played it once, and I haven't played it since. ”

When he spoke, there was a hint of nostalgia in his eyes.

Yang Xiaole nodded slightly.

It was okay before the liberation, but for a period of time after the liberation, there was basically no shadow of fireworks, and even the amount of firecrackers was very small.

There is no way, in order to ensure people's livelihood, the fireworks are very short, and they will disappear after a few sounds.

Where like now a volume.

But even now, there are very few rolls to buy.

The others were lit, and Yang Xiaole was there watching quietly.

At this time, Qu Ying was holding things and spinning around there, having a lot of fun.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole smiled and planted hand-held fireworks around him, and Qu Ying was curious for a while.

"What are you doing? And put a lead in the middle? ”

"Look at it!"

Yang Xiaole smiled.

Just now, he also had a whim, thinking of the scenes of fireworks chasing girls in later generations.

We haven't talked about it.

But it's not that I haven't seen it.

I've never eaten pork, and I've never seen a pig run!

After getting ready, he smiled and beckoned: "Come here!" ”

Qu Ying walked over curiously.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole lit the lead.

A few heads together to order.

After a while, a bright firework surrounded the two of them.

Qu Ying looked at the fireworks around her, and her eyes lit up with little stars: "It's so beautiful!" ”

"Good-looking? So what shape does this have? ”

Yang Xiaole said with a smile.

"Shape? What shape? ”

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole rolled her eyes, hugged her thighs, and raised them up in her exclamation.

"See?"

After turning around, the fireworks have burned out, and after putting it down, he asked.

But seeing Qu Ying's blank face, Yang Xiaole was speechless for a while, maybe it was too big.

In other words, women at this time are not so sensitive to the shape of the heart.

"Well, I didn't get it."

Qu Ying smiled when she saw this; "Just say it! If you don't say this, how do I know! ”

Yang Xiaole rolled his eyes.

The high ascension that I had prepared before was lit.

"Chirp~~Smack~~"

A piercing sound exploded directly in the air.

Qu Ying's eyes were attracted again.

It's not just here, it's also found elsewhere, but it's very sporadic.

There were several in a row.

I felt bored, and lit the last ten big fireworks.

A huge fire lit up in the sky, and a huge fire exploded.

Not as explosive as the afterlife.

But in this era, it is already a high-end product.

I've seen some of the big events held in the city.

Yang Xiaole watched the fireworks come over and hugged Qu Ying, who was covering her ears.

"Where are you from?"

"Where do you care where you came from? Isn't it good-looking? ”

"Well, it's good-looking!"

Yang Xiaole smiled and nodded, don't talk about now, it is the future generations, once someone sets off large fireworks, young people love to watch them.

watched Qu Ying put down her ears and hugged her in her arms.

Look at the fireworks in the sky.

Qu Ying snuggled in his arms, her eyes shining brightly, every time she exploded, she would subconsciously hide.

Although it is useless.

Ten of them were put quickly.

Yang Xiaole took two more barrels and lit them.

This time it's even more lively.

"Run!"

In the middle of his thoughts, there was the light of a flashlight in the distance, and Yang Xiaole hurriedly smiled.

Qu Ying turned her head to look at it and said anxiously: "Quick, go quickly." ”

She is not afraid of being caught setting off fireworks, but she is worried that the relationship between the two people will be seen and it will be over.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole hurriedly pulled her away, and the road was not very easy to walk in the dark.

hugged her horizontally. Run fast on the ground you are targeting.

As for the people behind him, he was thrown away.

And these people are not arrested, after all, there are not no fireworks in the city, so they are not so active.

"Quick, get in the car!"

After running for a while, returning to the original place, Yang Xiaole greeted the nervous Qu Ying with a smile.

I rode away on my bike.

After riding for a while, I stopped in a dark alley.

Yang Xiaole looked at Qu Ying, who was slightly relaxed, and smiled: "What are you afraid of?" ”

Qu Ying was carefully looking into the distance to see if anyone was chasing after her.

Wen Yan turned his head and rolled his eyes: "What do you say!" How humiliating would it be if this was caught? So what are you running? ”

"Hehe, I ran, naturally there is a reason, I'm not afraid of being embarrassed, besides, what's the shame."

He was worried that the fireworks were coming from the wrong way and would not be seen and explained clearly.

It's better to run.

After speaking, he hugged the other party in his arms.

The atmosphere fell silent.

Qu Ying bit her lip, knowing that this guy was going to do something bad.

"Let's hurry back to ...... Woo~"

Really.

As soon as he was about to speak, his mouth was sealed.

In the darkness, there was only the sound of the squeeze and the chirping......

Reverie.

Yang Xiaole sat on a large rock in the alley.

Qu Ying was held in his arms.

Ten minutes later, he let Qu Ying, who was already weak, laugh in a low voice; "Or ...... I'll go to you in the evening! ”

"Good! If you dare to come here! ”

This time, Qu Ying didn't say that he was crazy, but agreed with a smile.

This Chinese New Year's Eve, how could he be on his side.

This made Yang Xiaole embarrassed.

looked at Qu Ying, who was blushing, pouting, and proud.

Where can he admit defeat!

He smiled and said, "Okay! I won't go back tonight, but I will say that I slept with my master. ”

"Huh?"

Qu Ying was dumbfounded.

Think about it...... This guy seems to be able to do it!

I can only laugh and say: "I'll just kidding, you better go back!" ”

"That won't do! You said yes! ”

"I ...... Woo~~"

Before he finished speaking, his mouth was sealed again.

After a long time, it felt like the time was almost up, and he could only reluctantly withdraw his hand from his clothes.

"Let's go, let's go back!"

At this time, Qu Ying was already like a lump of mud.

When I heard the voice, I could only hum softly.

"Hey, hey!"

Yang Xiaole smiled, picked her up, and put her in the car.

As soon as the cold wind blew, Qu Ying also woke up.

After sitting down, the two rushed home.

said that it was in Qu Ying's room tonight, which was just a joke.

Of course, if it could be more in-depth, Yang Xiaole didn't care about going back in the early morning like that day.

Anyway, there is Suo Ye to cover today.

But he also knew that this woman would be able to get to this point in the short term.

It's already good.

When she came to the vicinity of the compound, Qu Ying went in first.

After waiting for a while, Yang Xiaole came in from outside pushing the car alone.

At this time, the courtyard is naturally brightly lit, and the lively sound of Uncle Wang's house is not necessary to know that this is the sound of playing cards.

PS: I'll take a day off tomorrow, I'm sorry brothers and sisters.

I have to fast forward later, because Sijiu City was difficult at that time, but with support, it won't be as sad as other places.
