Ye Yaodong carried a basket in his hand and placed two little puppies in it. When he got home, Lin Xiuqing had not come back, and his mother had not come back.
He and his father had to clean up first, do what they should be slaughtered first, and do the fine or cooked things before they come back.
Ye’s father was also constantly complaining, “Every day, I can’t run away every day, and I run out every day. Is there anything so good and lively about other people’s affairs?”
"It's time, and I don't know if I'm back. There are a lot of vegetables waiting for them to pack up. Is it still possible to cook them? It's not the New Year."
"The big ones don't see people, the small ones don't see people, and the old ones don't see people. These ones hurt here and there all day long, all fake--"
"Dongzi, go and call them back. If you don't come back, you'll have to have lunch."
Ye Yaodong swung the kitchen knife in his hand on the wooden cutting board and stood there, watching Ye's father trembling.
"Then———I'll go."
After saying that, Ye's father wiped his hands on his body, put his hands behind him, and shook his head, "These ones,
I have a bad temper and can't even scream - I'm angry -
Ye Yaodong had just taken the rag on the side to wipe his hands. Seeing his father like that, he was a little confused.
What are you talking about?
When Ye’s father left, no one was seen again.
Ye Yaodong even washed the vegetables, but he still didn't see anyone. He even wondered if his father was deliberately lazy and escaped.
It was not until he heard the noise from afar that he thought that he would be back now and that the show should end.
Neighbors saw no one anymore, and his father also came back with the large army.
"I didn't see you so active in the big show in the Tianhou Palace. There are no people running around. Do you know today's New Year's Eve?"
"If you don't do anything, just run away. Who will you keep it for? It's time to order food, why don't you just stay there for a meal?"
"And you!" Ye Yaodong said to his father, "I told them to call them back, and then ran away. Are you going to call them? Are you going to join them.
,
"You guys don't know anything."
He glared at the old lady again, "And you, you are old, and you still have to join in the fun with crutches. Is it reasonable? If anyone touches you casually, you really want Amitabha."
The old lady said with a compliment: "I just wanted to buy some candy, so I just took a walk-in-
"Come on, then go with them?"
Ye’s mother rolled up her sleeves and said, “How much work can there be? There are so many people, just do it casually. I’ll do it, I’ll do it.”
"I've done everything I should do, but it's not yours."
Lin Xiuqing smiled and angrily glanced at him, "Is it just right that you are coming back? You have done everything you should do, and the rest is up to us. You go and rest. Ye Xiaojiu - come back--"
When Ye Xiaoxi heard the call, he rushed in from outside at some corner, and there was a series of followers behind him.
"I'm here, mom, you call me?"
"Press your father's legs. Thank you for your father's hard work. Let him give you New Year's money tonight."
Her eyes lit up, "Little ones, come on!"
The string of followers of all sizes rushed towards Ye Yaodong.
Ye Yaodong's eyes widened, and he watched a group of small radish heads rushing towards him, and some even hit his legs and sat on the ground.
Some of them moved stools for him, wiped their sleeves, and pulled him down.
Some even moved two small stools, picked up his legs, and made him raise his feet.
"What are you doing? You are very skilled in your business?" Ye Yaodong followed these little kids to play with them funny.
"Ahai, Ajiang and the others trained." Lin Xiuqing said with a smile on her apron.
At this time, the group of children had already pinched their shoulders, their legs, and their backs.
"These two brats are quite good at enjoying it? Are they still trying to help them?"
"Isn't it? It's different when you make money. You buy a bag of candy, then tease these children, pinch their shoulders and massage their backs, and when you feel comfortable, you will be rewarded with a candy."
Ye Yaodong looked at Ye Xiaoxi and laughed, "Is a candy going to buy you?"
"This is what I earn, of course it's different, and everyone has it, they like to eat candy."
A group of small radish heads all agreed, and they like to eat candy the most.
"You've become older than a big sister? You've also developed a group of small followers?"
Ye Xiaoxi was proud, "Of course, I have many toys, so they all listened to me.
》
"I'm so irritating! You guys do it well. I feel comfortable when I pinch it, so I'll buy you candy."
"Thank you, Uncle San—"
"Thank you, Uncle Dong—"
Ye's mother muttered, "I'm all in my early 30s, and I still learn from Ah Hai and the others who are not in tune with each other. I can play with such a group of kids."
Lin Xiuqing smiled and said, "I will fry the meatballs later and I will share them with them to eat.
2
"Okay~"
Ye Xiaoxi cheered happily, and the others cheered.
Ye Yaodong asked, "When you watch the fun in the morning, what are you going to see?"
"What else can you do? If you pay, how can you celebrate the New Year if you don't pay? It will make you restless, give you 5,000 yuan
It was settled under the witness of the villagers. From now on, the two have nothing to do with each other and they will not owe each other."
After Lin Xiuqing said that, Ye’s mother added again.
"It was the woman who came over, but she said that she had paid the money so that Chen Wei could go out to the village to make money. Then, it seemed that he was holding some lifeline. Chen Wei responded and went to get the money. His wife refused at the time, but she ended up giving it to her.
He slapped, and then the people next to him tried to fight and pulled the money and dispersed the people."
"Then the other person took the money and left, and the couple started fighting again. What's the matter?"
"Isn't it good to live a good life in a good family? I have to make trouble. If I have a wife and children at home, I still have sex. I deserve to pay a lot of money. I think they just sleep for casually?"
"I've been making a fuss for a few days, and the whole village has been watching it for several days. It's really more lively than singing a big show."
The old lady said with a swearing voice: "It's New Year's Eve today, so when you leave, you're gone, and you can't have a good time."
"The person is gone?"
Ye’s mother held the colorful washbasin and said, “Let’s go, the couple fought and was pulled away by someone. Then Chen Wei took a password box similar to yours and left.”
"Depend on."
"I guess I wanted to leave a long time ago, but I was blocked by someone at my doorstep for several days and couldn't go anywhere. I ran away now."
"It's not even a year."
Ye’s father interrupted, “What’s the New Year? It’s so much trouble. The family is restless. Can you still have the heart to celebrate the New Year? No one can cook the meal.”
Ye’s mother said, “Dongzi, you can’t learn from such people, you can’t learn bad things outside.”
"How could I do such a thing? Most of the strong laborers in the village supervise me, and my father."
"That's true, my son will definitely not be able to do such a thing."
"Then you still hit me."
"I would like to remind you that you should not be complacent if you have money."
"knew."
Ye Yaodong was not in a good mood to enjoy the service of the little radish leaders. He waved his hand and told them not to do it. He also touched 50 cents to give it to Ye Xiaoxi.
"Please buy candy for everyone to eat."
"That's great, go to the convenience store~"
"Run~"
A little fat man ran in the front, with a bunch of children behind him, not only those who were younger than her, but also those who were older than her.
"These are so noisy-
"Oh? Why are there two more puppies?" Lin Xiuqing spoke in the room.
"The one I just caught was two wolf dogs. When I first got it back, the dogs at home kept barking at them. These two little dogs were very fierce, and they also jumped out of the basket to attack the local dogs.
Barking, if I hadn't stopped, I would have to fight. So I carried the basket into the house."
It is also because these two are a little small, and they probably just looked weaned and were worried that they would freeze outside, so they put them in the house.
"Wolf dog? No wonder it looks different. How do you raise it? Two dogs have to fight?"
"I don't know, I haven't raised it before, so I put it in the house and I will take it with me when I go to the boat market."
"All right."
Lin Xiuqing took out the basket and showed it to everyone, then took it back, and placed it on the pile of firewood next to the stove. The whole house was the warmest place except for the quilt.
The two dogs were not discovered by the children at home until lunch.
Everyone didn't bother to eat. They all held rice bowls and surrounded by the firewood, looked at the two little puppies, and then fed them with their own food.
If it weren't for the adults' stop, they could have carried the little puppy on their legs and had a meal with them.
After the meal, they couldn't stop them from holding the puppy in their arms, running around to play, showing off that they had two more little wolf dogs.
Ye Yaodong was worried that they would be fooled and would not grow up.
It seems that he can't take these two dogs away.
Not only could he not take it away, when he finished his meal and went out for a walk, all three of his family had already started training these two little wolf dogs.
I took a wire ring and let the two little dogs drill, and I was still there, so I couldn't burn a fire ring to drill them.
"Damn, you can't abuse animals."
When Ye Yaodong saw the two little puppies placed on the ground, waiting to drill into the iron ring, he quickly picked them up and put them in his arms. They also tied ropes and tied bones to tempt them to jump away.
"This is how circus dances, and there is also a fire ring.
2
"Damn, I'm not at home, what are you all playing? Have you played with new tricks?"
"Uncle San, they said that there was a fire ring in the circus and then let the bear digging, which looked so good."
"Dad, our dogs are OK too. Huahua~ stand up and wave your hand~"
Ye Chenghu showed his instructions to the dog on the side, and the spotted dog on the side moved over without expectation, and then his two front hooves stood up.
"Turn another circle."
He held the dog's paws in one hand, and then the spotted dog could really make a profit.
Ye Chenghu said excitedly, "Dad, look, our dogs can do it."
"It's not easy for them to have a dog to live with you---"
"We asked my mother to buy bones and pig lungs for it!"
Ye Xiaoxi also said excitedly: "Dad, Xiao Hei can do it, so I've taught Xiao Hei too. Come here, come here, why are you running away? Come here?"
The more she screamed, the more the little black dog retreated. When she chased her, the little black dog ran away.
It's still the kind of running while running.
Ye Yaodong couldn't help but hold his forehead, these few.
"Can you stop using the circus set on dogs? It's okay to simply train them, and don't bully and abuse them."
"No, how could we abuse them? We like them." Ye Chengyang also retorted loudly.
Ye Yaodong touched the two in his arms, "These two small ones are not allowed to be carried around and played around. They have just been weaned, so don't touch the candle."
After saying that, he also carried the two little puppies back first, and was really worried that these two would be played to death.
This is very small, but it cannot withstand their troubles.
"Okay, then dad, you take it back first, let's train other dogs."
The other dogs also ran away at this time.
I guess I'm afraid of them too.
"Your mother told you to go home and take a shower. Taking advantage of the sun at noon, it's not cold to take a shower.
Change into new clothes.”
"Ah, are you wearing new clothes? Go home and take a shower and wear new clothes~"
Ye Yaodong walked back slowly.
When the children around him heard that they wanted to take a shower and wear new clothes, they hurriedly ran to their homes and prepared to take a shower and wear new clothes, and they scattered.
The dogs who had run away slowly gathered at his feet.
Some bite his trouser legs, some whisper a few times, some stand up directly, put their front legs on his arms, and then bark loudly at the two little wolf dogs in his arms.
The two little wolf dogs in his arms also turned their heads and barked at the local dogs, revealing their sharp tiger teeth, as if they were about to fight at any time.
Ye Yaodong threw the dog on his arm down, "Go, go and play by yourself."
Lin Xiuqing was busy all over the room. As soon as the three children came back, they wanted to take a shower and wear new clothes. Her head was too big and she was out of the way.
As soon as he saw Ye Yaodong coming back, he quickly asked him to help and stop playing with dogs.
On New Year's Eve, the whole village seemed to be lit up by festive lanterns.
A big red lantern lit up in front of every household's door, and the warm red swayed gently in the cold wind, illuminating the originally dim door.
The halo of the lantern is projected on the mottled walls, with light and shadow intertwined, like a flowing scroll.
After the children finished their New Year’s Eve dinner and received their New Year’s money red envelopes, they all ran to the door happily to set off firecrackers.
The adults also went to the village to find friends to chat and play cards, and only Lin Xiuqing was still busy cleaning up the mess.
The TV in the house was playing the Spring Festival Gala, cheerful music and humorous sketches, making Lin Xiuqing feel busier and more energetic as she listened.
These years have been the happiest and richest years she has lived. Even if she is busy alone, her face is filled with a joyful and happy smile.
There were two little puppies running out of the nest at her feet and circling around her feet.
She was worried that she would step on it, so she kicked it gently, but the little wolf dog turned around and ran over to her feet.
In an instant, she seemed to understand why the whole family seemed to like dogs very much.
After she finished cleaning up the inside and outside of the house, she had time to take a shower and clean herself up, and she had time to wear a gold necklace and a gold bracelet.
Ye Yaodong found out that she was wearing a gold necklace and bracelet at night, and was even more satisfied.
1988, first day of the New Year.
It started to rain heavily in the early morning. The sound of the rain couldn't extinguish the children's enthusiasm for running out. They all had a bag of firecrackers yet.
Ye Chenghu and Ye Chengyang were wearing rain boots, each holding an umbrella, standing in the rain with an umbrella, and seeing Ye Xiaoxi jumped straight under the corridor.
Ye Yaodong woke up from their noise.
"Dad, my brother won't give me an umbrella."
"Then let's beat my brother on the first day of the Lunar New Year."
Ye Xiaoxi immediately turned around and went to get the whip.
The two brothers were immediately confused when they saw the whip being delivered to Ye Yaodong's hands.
"Dad, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year——
"You know the first day of the Lunar New Year? Take a look at the water on your body and your heels."
The two brothers looked down and saw that their new cotton jacket was half wet and half a thousand, and their heels were even more terrifying. At some point, the pants below their butt had already thrown a large pool of mud spots.
"Dad, I'll go to my hometown to ask my grandma to come and have a meal." Ye Cheng ran away frantically.
Ye Chenghu also ran with an umbrella, "I'll go too."
"I want it too."
Ye Xiaoxi was so anxious that he wanted to rush into the rain, so Ye Yaodong quickly grabbed her collar.
"Do you want to be beaten to death? It's raining and rushing out."
When she saw the whip, she didn't want to move it anymore. She stuffed the whip into his father's hand.
"I'll go find a dog."
She bent and fled under him, then got into the room.
Ye Yaodong also felt that his three were really making noise. He didn't stay at home, so he just came back the evening before yesterday.
I felt a little overwhelmed after just one day.
He also went into the house and then told Ah Qing about the two gangsters.
How can he not know about that trick?
He was obviously playing in the rain and got wet and dirty, but when he called his parents to come over for dinner, he had a perfect reason and could shirk responsibility.
"It actually rained on the first day of the New Year, but it was still heavy."
Lin Xiuqing agreed, "Yes, it seems that I don't know when the rain will stop, and there is no atmosphere during the New Year.
"Well, there was an atmosphere before the New Year, but now the atmosphere during the New Year is gone. If there is rain tomorrow, I can't accompany you to your parents' home."
"It doesn't matter. When the road conditions are better, go when it's raining. It doesn't matter if you don't go. When they go to the city, it doesn't matter if we go again."
"I'm worried that I don't have time, and the shop will be open on the fifth day of the lunar month. At about the tenth day of the lunar month, I will go to the provincial capital and stay for about four or five days. Regardless of whether there is any harvest, I will come back around the 14th day, watch the fun of the 15th day, and the sixteenth day of the 16th day of the 16th day of the 15th day of the 16th day of
It was about seventeen to set out on the boat market.”
"You can arrange it according to your time. It doesn't matter if I am here, let's see it then."
"Um."
The drizzle in Zhejiang and Zhejiang lasted for several days, and the New Year atmosphere was gone.
I didn't see a few people on the road for several days, and I could only hear some children throwing firecrackers into the rain and puddles intermittently.
Every household can only stay at home, and the village suddenly feels silent.
But when you go to some people's homes, you can find that silence is fake, and outdoor activities are concentrated in the room, and smoke is everywhere. Everyone is holding a handful of money in their hands and standing on a stool.
Chapter completed!
