Chinese New Year's Eve.

The night family has always had the custom of going back to their hometown early in the morning to worship at the Gong Temple.

After Chen Xing was woken up by Ye Bangyue, he first sent a good morning to Jun Muyi, and then he was a little helpless to accompany Ye Bangyue to post the couplets of his hometown.

They had already posted that home in Sioux City, so they didn't have to worry about it at the moment.

"Okay, brother, your craftsmanship is still quite good."

"Go, go, don't tease me, don't you just post a couplet?"

Chen Xing came down from the escalator, looked at the crooked couplet in front of him, and clapped his hands: "Let's go, sister, aren't you going back to the village?" ”

"Let's have breakfast first, come, I'll give you steamed dumplings." Ye Bangyue was biting a dumpling, and at the same time, she was not afraid of being hot, and she took the steaming drawer and approached Chen Xing.

Afraid that this person would be burned, Chen Xing hurriedly took over the steaming drawer in her hand, and after feeling that it was not hot, he looked at a few dumplings with fillings pouring out of it, and said a little strangely: "Sister, did you wrap it?" ”

"yes, give it a try? I think it's okay. ”

Ye Bangyue ate a dumpling in two or three bites and clapped her hands.

"Uh... Shall I try it? ”

Chen Xing picked one up, took a bite, and then it was salty.

This salt is not mixed evenly!

Chen Xing wanted to cry and swallowed without tears, and hurriedly ran to drink water.

He shouldn't have tried his sister's craft! You can't easily believe the words of someone who is not a good cook!

Even if the things he made look good!

Ye Bangyue, who stayed in place, looked at Chen Xing who went to drink water blankly, picked up a dumpling and ate it.

Hey, why doesn't this smell good?

...

After buying some artillery and incense paper, the siblings drove back to Yejia's village.

Chen Xing looked at the village in front of him that was unlikely to come back, but now he had to come back, and sighed.

Getting out of the car and going to the trunk to pick up things, Chen Xing met Ye Bangyue's really sensible eyes and followed her towards their residence.

Only Zhao Yao lives in their old house now, and even the nanny doesn't live there, so it's actually a bit dangerous, but I heard that Zhao Yao asked for it, and Chen Xing couldn't understand his grandmother's thoughts.

Looking at some very dilapidated houses passing by, Chen Xing looked at Ye Bangyue with some strange eyes.

After Ye Bangyue noticed it, she said: "The old man is gone, and the juniors of their branch are too lazy to come back." ”

"Even if we're a night house?"

"In the family, no one knows the true situation of the Ye family except for those who are close to us. For those who haven't been home, our night family is only giving them a night surname at most. ”

Chen Xing knew it and didn't think about it anymore.

After following Ye Bangyue back to their family's old house, Chen Xing also saw Zhao Yao again.

After calling his grandmother, Chen Xing began to prepare to pack up his things and go to the Gong Temple.

Zhao Yao looked at the busy figure of her grandson, and patted Ye Bangyue, who was sitting next to her and had nothing to do: "Yue'er, you go and help Xiaoxing." ”

"Grandma~ I've been busy by myself for so many years, so I want to let him, the only man in our family, come over and do something, right?"

Ye Bangyue was talking when she was knocked on the head by Zhao Yao.

There was some pain, and the woman in the black dress was holding her head weakly, and she didn't look like a head of the house at all.

Zhao Yao looked at her and shook her head: "You're just lazy." ”

"Hey, hey."

...

After Chen Xing finished cleaning up, he turned his head to look at the grandfather and grandson who were still laughing not far away, and said, "Sister, let's go!" ”

"It's coming, it's coming."

After Ye Bangyue said a few words to Zhao Yao, she quickly followed Chen Xing's pace.

Seeing his younger brother pick up the flat burden, Ye Bangyue quickly took out his mobile phone, and the camera took a photo of Chen Xing.

But there was a click, and some people were annoyed that they had forgotten the sound, while others turned their heads to look at it with a puzzled expression.

Ye Bangyue scratched her head in embarrassment: "It's okay, it's okay, I'll take a picture of the roof, and someone will repair it later." ”

"Sister, the next time you say this, can you stop holding the camera and continuing to point it at me?"

Chen Xing said helplessly, and sighed when he saw that Ye Bangyue didn't pay attention to it and operated the mobile phone.

His sister can fight with his family in some places.

Chen Xing didn't know that his sister behind him was sending the photo he had just taken to his family.

When I came to the Gong Temple, there were already some people worshipping in front of the Gong Temple.

It is customary to bring a whole chicken, rice, and wine to worship at the night house.

When Chen Xing was secretly studying on the side, he suddenly heard someone come over and ask him which family he was from.

Chen Xing blinked and looked at Ye Bangyue.

Ye Bangyue, who was still sending messages, noticed it and raised her hand, "Uncle Ming, this is my brother!" Long Star! ”

"Oh, it's you, young man, you sisters and brothers really look alike, remember to come over and play on the first day of tomorrow's new year." The middle-aged man who was called Uncle Ming by Ye Bangyue patted Changxing's shoulder and laughed loudly.

"Okay, okay..."Chen Xing nodded, and replied with a smile.

The customs are different in various places, Chen Xing is already used to visiting after the second year of junior high school in Sucheng, and now he is going to visit the door on the first day of junior high school, and he is suddenly a little unaccustomed to it.

But tomorrow, let's deal with it tomorrow, what we need to do now...

Forehead...

Chen Xing, who came back to his senses from his heart, looked at a group of people who seemed to be relatives coming around, and suddenly felt a little confused.

"Oh, is this the kid that the old family just recognized?"

"Call Changxing, Xiaoxing is good, call Aunt Sheng to listen."

"Oh yo, what about me, Xiaoxing shouted Auntie!"

...

Chen Xing never expected that the people in his family would be so enthusiastic.

He was caught and left to ask questions... What's more, he originally thought that there were only a dozen people, but these people in the back almost called the people who were now in the village...

The sacrificial temple, which could have been completed in ten minutes, ended up dragging on for more than an hour.

Carrying the flat burden back to the tablet of his house, Chen Xing glanced at Ye Bangyue, who was starting to get serious, and said softly: "Sister, when I visit the door tomorrow, is that when I am questioned by them?" ”

After Ye Bangyue heard it, she nodded: "That's right... In fact, after finishing tomorrow's first day of the new year, it's almost over, can you see if you can go back early? ”

"Hmm... I took a look and there were no other flights. ”

"Back to Sioux City?"

"That's right."

Ye Bangyue laughed: "Don't you look at the one who went to Qingcheng?" ”

Chen Xing lit the incense a little helplessly, "I've also seen it, there are fewer flights needed from Jiangcheng to Qingcheng, and those who have vacant seats will be after the eighth day of the Lunar New Year." ”

"Uh-huh. So how long do you plan to stay in Jiangcheng? ”

"Now I've booked a ticket back to Sioux City for the sixth day of the first month. The rest... Take your time. ”

Chen Xing looked at the signs in front of him, and after lingering on the names of his parents and grandfather for a while, he inserted the incense in his hand on the incense altar.

As he moved, a little ash from the incense fell, revealing a spark.
