On the twenty-third day of the lunar month, also known as the New Year, every household has begun to prepare for meat, many people go to the street to buy New Year's goods, and the cities and towns suddenly look lively and extraordinary.

Many shopkeepers in the town have also found that more people are buying New Year's goods this year than in previous years.

The same is true of Xinghua Village, where every villager's face is full of festive colors.

In previous years, many villagers were reluctant to cut an extra piece of meat, but now they are cut in large pieces and go home, and children who have not changed new clothes for a long time also buy new clothes on this day.

With the new clothes, the children can't wait to wear them out and deal with their friends.

However, compared with the past, they did not jump around, but were afraid of soiling the new clothes they were going to wear for the New Year, and looked left and right like little girls.

Even the most reluctant people in the village to buy new clothes still see other people's children put on new clothes, they grit their teeth and buy new clothes for their own children.

In previous years, they were reluctant to buy it, after all, for many families in difficulty, it was better to buy more pork if they had money to buy new clothes.

But this is not the case, because they have some chickens to make some money, and they sell eggs enough for them to have a good year.

The He family is no exception, He Da became a fast catcher, and several children of the He family worked hard in Niu to earn a lot of silver, and the He family bought new clothes and new shoes for each child.

Originally, He didn't plan to buy new shoes for his child at all, but because He Chongba said, "Although the broken shoes are broken, they can be worn!"

He thought of something, and without saying a word, he took the child to the town to buy new shoes.

Niu Dali has also been very busy recently, because there are too many villagers in the town to buy New Year's goods, and the few families in the village with ox carts are simply not enough.

Later, some familiar villagers found Niu Dali and asked Niu Dali to give them a ride.

At first, it didn't work, but gradually more and more villagers borrowed ox carts.

In this way, Niu Dali worked as a coachman for three days, and his income was not low, he earned more than 500 wen in three days, and Niu Dali's children were generally not charged.

After all, if it were usual, Zhou Laozhu's ox cart children would not charge money, but now that the Chinese New Year is approaching, many families have begun to prepare for the New Year, and many children follow to play in the town.

And an ox cart that could originally sit on the ** person couldn't sit too many children at all, causing the children to also start charging a penny, not only the children collected money, but the adults usually only charge a penny, but now it has risen to two pennies.

However, although the price of ox carts has risen, it cannot resist the enthusiasm of the villagers for the Chinese New Year, after all, it is only once a year.

But there are still some villagers who are reluctant to spend money on ox carts, so they go to the town to buy some New Year's goods as a family.

Generally, when encountering such villagers on the road, Niu Dali will take them back to the village when the ox cart can sit down.

Fortunately, his ox cart is wider and longer than ordinary ox carts, and other people's families can squeeze up to about ten people at most, but Niu Dali's ox cart can seat fifteen or sixteen people, not including those who sit with children.

Not only that, Niu Dali's ox cart is also faster than other people's ox carts, and other people's families come to Broken Leaf Town, and Niu Dali's rhubarb goes back and forth twice.

Gradually, Niu Dali's ox cart was highly praised, not only fast, but also very stable, and the price was low, and the children did not need money, causing many villagers to talk to Li Xianglan in the town to see if there was a place.

But some people are red-eyed.

For example, Zhou Laozhu's family, who lives on ox carts.

Zhou Laozhu's daughter-in-law Zhou was a little angry, other people's ox carts have risen in price, but Niu Dali's ox cart has not risen, so many families in the village take Niu Dali's ox cart.

is the so-called robbery business, such as killing parents, if it weren't for the family's business being good, the Zhou family would have planned to make trouble with Niu Dali's family.

Erya saw that many friends were wearing new clothes and ran home, her little face was slightly red, shouting to wear new clothes, Li Xianglan was helpless, and taught Erya a lesson.

If you don't teach a lesson, you can't do it!

The clothes worn by Er Ya were made only two months ago, and for ordinary people, this is already a new clothes, but this little girl is still thinking about new clothes.

It's not that there are no new clothes, but the new clothes are intended to be worn by Erya for the New Year.

When he was making clothes, Brother Dali told him to make two more pieces, so that the two girls could be replaced.

But this little girl has only lived a few good days, and she always wants to wear new clothes, and she doesn't want to think that when she was in Lao Niu's house before, a piece of clothing could be worn for several years.

Besides, tell me what a little girl is doing when she plays beautifully.

"What's wrong?

Niu Dali happened to come back from the town, and when he heard Li Xianglan teaching Erya, he saw the little girl pouting and looking at him aggrievedly, her watery eyes flashing with pity and helplessness.

"It's not that she wants to wear new clothes, those new clothes are intended for them to wear for the New Year, how can they get dirty at this time. Li Xianglan said.

"Many children in the village are wearing new clothes, and even a few children from the He family are wearing new clothes, and our family is not wearing them. Niu Dali stepped forward and touched Erya's little head, "Besides, clothes are meant to be worn by people, so let Erya wear them if she wants to!"

Erya's aggrieved little face immediately showed joy.

Li Xianglan glanced at him, "You love the child!"

Niu Dali smiled innocently.

The second girl who changed into new clothes was going to pull the big girl out of the house, and naturally went to play with the little sisters.

"What are you anxious about, little girl?"

Niu vigorously stopped the two girls and gave the eldest girl the candied fruit he had bought from the town.

As soon as Erya saw the candied fruit on the oil paper, she picked up the candied date and put it in her mouth, her eyes narrowed, revealing a cute little appearance of enjoyment.

"Delicious!"

"Take it and give it to your friends!" Niu Dali laughed.

"Uh-huh!" the two little heads connected.

After that, the two girls went out.

"Do you love the child so much?" Li Xianglan shook her head.

"I also bought a gift for you!" Niu Dali smiled honestly and took out a plum blossom silver hairpin from his waist.

"You!" Without waiting for Li Xianglan to speak, Niu Dali walked up to Li Xianglan, took off the wooden hairpin inserted on Li Xianglan's head, and inserted the plum blossom silver hairpin.

"It's so beautiful!" Niu Dali said with a heartfelt smile.

Li Xianglan's face turned red, her eyes drooped, and she was delicate.

"By the way, Xianglan, are we going to buy some New Year's goods too?" Niu Dali said: "Do we go to the town to buy the couplet, or let Zhongyun write a picture for us." ”

Usually the villagers will buy red paper for the village readers to write, after all, the couplets bought in the town are much more expensive than the ones written by the readers.

Li Xianglan's face flushed, "Listen to you!"

The cow scratched its head vigorously.

It's a really hard choice!
