"Fourth brother, not only do you have this feeling, but I also have it." Yang Huazhou said in a deep voice.

Yang Huazhong said: "How about sending two people to follow him? I'm afraid he will get lost."

Yang Yongjin said: "Third uncle, I don't think it's necessary, right? My eldest brother said it's okay, not to mention he's in his early thirties and not a child."

Yang Huazhong looked at the others again. Yang Yongzhi was carrying Hong'er on his back and was panting. He definitely wouldn't go.

Yang Yongqing raised his hands directly: "I want to go home and take care of my daughter. Third uncle, please don't look for me."

The rest are Da'an, Xiao'an and Dabaokang.

Daan put Feng'er into Xiaoan's hand: "I'll go."

Xiao An said: "Brother, it's better for me to go. You will have to help your sister-in-law with the Fuwa when you go back later!"

Dabao said: "I'll go with Brother An!"

Yang Huazhong nodded: "You two, hurry up and catch up with your eldest cousin and be his companion."

…

Yang Huazhong led a group of people back home, and everyone went back to their homes and started working.

The women have to be busy in the kitchen and preparing for the New Year's Eve dinner, while the men have to be busy mixing rice paste and pasting couplets, door gods, and window grilles.

If a person can't stick it, someone will stop him. The person who sticks it will step on a stool, hold up a bright couplet in his hand, and ask the person standing on the ground next to him: "Is it upright?"

The people below were gesturing, "It's not crooked, it's done!"

The couplets on the door were pasted, and the couplets on the doorways of other houses were also pasted.

Yang Huazhong and Luo Tiejiang prepared many couplets. Even the pig pens in the backyard and the front of the chicken coop had the couplets saying "Six Livestocks Are Prosperous".

In the main room, a "Tong Yan Wu Ji" was posted, all for the purpose of seeking good luck and praying for good weather in the coming year, peace for the family and prosperity for people and animals.

At Yang Huazhong's house, Yang Huazhong and Daan and his son were busy posting couplets. Xiaohua helped Sun cook the New Year's Eve dinner. Fuwa was sleeping in the cradle in the house, and Feng'er was practicing calligraphy and accompanying his sister.

My parents had previously told me that if my sister woke up, they would call them immediately.

The situation in the Luo family's yard, separated by a wall, is similar. In the kitchen, Yang Ruoqing is in charge and Wang Cuilian is in charge.

In the courtyard, Luo Fengtang and Blacksmith Luo posted couplets, cleaned the courtyard, carried the Eight Immortals table in the main room to the middle of the room, lit red candles in front of the shrine, and placed plates of snacks, melons and fruits in a straight line.

Luo Baobao was taking a bath in her room, and Tuoba Xian was watching over her, arranging the new clothes and skirts she would wear for the New Year one by one.

As the sun sets in the west, more and more people gather in front of the Tutu Temple at the south end of the village.

The Luo family also took firecrackers and joss sticks and went out, while the women in the backyard speeded up the process of cooking, because it would be time for the New Year's Eve dinner when the men came back.

"Mom, where are my father and eldest brother?"

Xiao An came back, Feng Feng Huo Huo entered the kitchen and asked.

Sun said: "I'm going to the Earth Temple. You should go quickly."

Xiao An turned around and walked out, and happened to meet Luo Fengtang and the others on the road at the entrance of the courtyard.

After saying hello, we walked together to the Earth Temple. On the way, Luo Fengtang asked Xiao An casually: "My father-in-law sent you and Dabao to keep your cousin company. Are they both back?"

Xiao An said: "To be honest with my brother-in-law, I was just looking for my father about this matter, and I lost him!"

"What?" Luo Fengtang was surprised.

There is only one big road to burn incense, and there are only a few ancestral graves of Lao Yang's family, and most of them are concentrated in one place. How can two people lose track of one person?

"What's going on?" Luo Fengtang asked again.

Xiao An said: "I originally thought that my cousin was a scholar with weak legs, but I didn't expect that when he entered the mountain, he would be like a dragon returning to the sea and a bird entering the forest. Dabao and I were only separated by a short time before he left us.

It’s quite a journey.”

"The two of us stopped him and explained our intention. He didn't refuse our company at that time and even said a few words of gratitude. But before we left for a while, he said he had a stomachache and asked us to wait for him by the woods. As a result, we both waited.

I haven't seen him come out for almost half an hour."

"Dabao and I went in to search. We searched the entire forest and found no one else. There were no signs of fighting or wild beasts on the ground, but the people were gone."

"Dabao and I panicked. We hurried down the mountain and told our family, brother-in-law, I won't tell you now. I have to go find my father and tell him about this."

Xiao An ran away, and on the other side, Dabao also went to find Yang Huazhou to tell him about this.

When Luo Fengtang heard this, his brows knitted together and a thought flashed through his mind.

Blacksmith Luo also heard it and said, "Why don't you go and see if there's anything you can do to help?"

Luo Fengtang said: "Don't worry, let's burn the incense before we talk."

Soon, Yang Huazhong and Yang Huazhou knew about this, and everyone was anxious. They hurriedly burned the incense and rushed home.

Luo Fengtang had already returned home first and told Yang Ruoqing about the matter.

Yang Ruoqing thought about it for a moment, "I think it's probably because they used the excuse of relieving themselves to throw away Xiao An and Dabao and ran away on their own."

Luo Fengtang said: "I just heard Xiao An say this, and my first impression was the same. However, I can't think of his motive for running away from Xiao An and Dabao."

Isn't it just going up the mountain to burn incense? Is there anything secretive about it?

Yang Ruoqing held her chin and thought for a moment, "It proves what my fourth uncle said, my cousin is so sneaky in everything he does, I no longer even have the interest to despise him."

Luo Fengtang said: "My father-in-law and the others must be in a hurry right now. They might summon people to go up the mountain to look for..."

Yang Ruoqing immediately said: "Tangyazi, hurry up and check with my father. If they really want to go up the mountain, you should persuade them to send someone to go to my father's place at the entrance of the village first. Maybe the eldest cousin has quietly

It’s time to go down the mountain!”

Luo Fengtang nodded, turned around and left like a gust of wind.

Wang Cuilian came to the door of the kitchen and discussed with Yang Ruoqing: "The New Year's Eve dinner is almost ready. When will it be put on the table?"

Yang Ruoqing turned around and said to her with a smile: "Aunt, don't worry, we'll deal with it when Tang Yazi comes back."

Wang Cuilian nodded and took off the handkerchief on her head, "Then I'll take advantage of this time to wash my hair and wash it clean for the New Year."

Yang Ruoqing pursed her lips and smiled: "Okay, there is a lot of hot water in the earthen pot, I will help you wash it, aunt."

Wang Cuilian was flattered, "No, no, it's just a hair wash. I can do it myself..."

"Auntie, I have nothing to do at the moment, so let me help you wash it. It will be faster, so don't delay it." Yang Ruoqing pulled Wang Cuilian to her bedroom, because in her bedroom

The bathroom is specially designed with one-stop service for washing and washing.

Yang Ruoqing followed the living habits of her previous life, washing her hair every three days, and the toiletries in her bedroom were complete.

It is really not easy for rural women in this era, especially elderly women, to wash their heads two or three times a month.

Especially in winter, there is no hair dryer, hair is long and plentiful, and the clothes you wear are bulky, so washing your hair is even more difficult.

Taking the initiative to wash Wang Cuilian's hair, Yang Ruoqing felt that this was what she should do as a junior.
