Chapter 222 Happy New Year

Seeing the harmonious atmosphere on the street, Lu Shaoqian looked at his wife affectionately, all of this was due to her.

It's a new year, and the men are reluctant to rest, and the common people are busy for another year.

Over the past few decades, nothing has changed here, and it is still as poor as ever.

But this year is very different, there are smiles on their numb faces, because they not only eat meat but also snacks.

A big family will borrow a fat pig from the head of the house, and a small family will borrow a fat pig together.

According to the head's wife, they could still use their labor to pay off the debt, so everyone hurriedly borrowed the fat pig and killed it.

There is hope in life, and everyone is not as anxious as in previous years.

Every household tore the cloth back to make new clothes for the family, so under the big gossip tree at the entrance of the village.

A group of women and girls sat happily under the big tree and made new clothes for the new year.

The children were still eating snacks, which had never happened in previous years, and everyone was still discussing which one looked better.

"Aunt Li, help me take a look, does the sample I made for the man look good?"

"It's very good, the color of this fabric is really beautiful." Aunt Li said with a smile, she is the mother of the village chief.

"Aunt Li, how about showing me this? I made clothes for my eldest son."

"Sister-in-law of the Zhang family, help your eldest son make such beautiful clothes, do you want to marry your daughter-in-law?"

"I think so, I don't know which girl is willing to marry into our family!"

"The way I see it, let's live another year, and many girls want to marry people from our village."

When the women were chatting happily, a child shouted loudly, "Grandma, there are many carriages coming from the entrance of the village."

Aunt Li urged while taking out the soles of the shoes: "Let's go and have a look quickly, maybe the head and his wife came back from shopping for New Year's goods in the big city, let's go meet them."

"Ouch!" A woman said coquettishly: "Aunt Li, you are obviously trying to curry favor with the head and madam."

Aunt Li said unhappily: "I am also thinking of all of us. We can eat pork this Chinese New Year. Can't we thank the head and his wife?"

"That's right, I see you, it's just that you have too many thoughts. The head and his wife are so kind to us, so we should go to greet us."

Aunt Zhang echoed Aunt Li and said that she was very grateful in her heart.

"Sister-in-law Zhang, look at what you said so well, you are still thinking about the pork." The woman said with a white look at them.

Aunt Li said with a smile: "You don't understand, I'm going to meet Mrs. Sect Leader and Sect Leader because we all eat pork during Chinese New Year."

"Hmph, the head of the sect doesn't want you to greet me." The woman said unconvincedly before. "You guys want to take the opportunity to curry favor with the head."

Mrs. Zhang was in a hurry: "I just want to curry favor with the head and his wife, come and bite me."

"All right, all right, let's all stop talking." Aunt Li held Sister-in-law Zhang back.

Smiling to the other women, "It's not that you don't know Zhang's daughter-in-law's temper, she's just too straightforward."

"Fuck, she's not sincere, she's just a flattering villain." The woman who spoke earlier murmured dissatisfied.

Mrs. Zhang was so angry that she wanted to hit someone, "Who are you talking about? Don't your family eat pork?"

Seeing this, Aunt Li quickly said: "I said, little aunt, please stop for a while, we are all waiting for you to welcome the head and wife."

The young woman shut up reluctantly, and after everyone tidied up, they walked towards the entrance of the village.

At this time, the sun had already set, and the setting sun shone out of the whole village.

Aunt Li led everyone to the entrance of the village, and saw more than a dozen carriages coming from the entrance of the village.

A tall man was sitting on a tall horse driving a carriage, with a gentle smile on his face, looking forward.

His eyes fell on the group of women at the entrance of the village, with a pensive look on his brows, he slowed down the carriage.

Aunt Li ran over with a smile on her face, and said respectfully: "Sect Leader, Mrs. Sect Leader, we are here to welcome you."

Lin Yong nodded slightly, then turned to ask the master in the carriage: "Master, ma'am, a large group of women came from the entrance of the village."

A soft and crisp voice came from the carriage: "Tell them, anyone who is building the city wall.

Tomorrow we will go to the village chief’s house to get biscuits and candies for the new year. We are also a little tired today and need to go back to rest. "

"Obey." Lin Yong responded, turned around and told everyone loudly with internal strength.

"Listen up everyone, our master is a little tired today, let everyone go back to rest.

Tomorrow we will send people to deliver various supplies to the village chief's house, and hope everyone will be satisfied. "

"And biscuits and candies, thank you, thank you."

"It's really great, thank you head, thank you Mrs. head."

A group of women suddenly beamed with joy, bowing and thanking.

"Master, madam, go back and rest quickly, all of you go away and let the carriage of the master and madam pass by."

Aunt Li said with a smile.

"Well, thank you ma'am."

Lin Yong nodded, and then drove the carriage towards Huangni Mountain.

The women and children dispersed one after another, making way for a wide driveway for the carriage to pass.

Aunt Li took the village mother-in-law, daughter-in-law and juniors, and stood by the roadside watching the carriage go away.

"This head and his wife are so handsome, it's like a fairy descending from the earth."

"That's right, I'm really envious of us."

A group of women talked about it.

"Ms. Li, let's continue making clothes." Someone urged.

Aunt Li said with a smile: "Okay, let's do our own work."

Everyone went under the big tree to continue making clothes and collecting shoe soles.

The women talked about the biscuits and candies they wanted tomorrow, and their gratitude was palpable.

Everyone chatted and said that the head is good-looking, and the head's wife is as beautiful as a fairy.

That girl was filled with jealousy, why didn't she get this kind of treatment?
She can be regarded as the flower of the village, but unfortunately the head of the village and those young people have never looked at her directly.

My father and brothers are helping the head of the house, why didn't the head of the house notice her?

Thinking of this, resentment welled up in her heart.

She gritted her teeth and looked at the front, with a vicious gleam in her eyes, she absolutely couldn't lose to that woman.

"Hey~" Suddenly, she shouted to Aunt Li.

"Huh?" Aunt Li looked at her suspiciously, not knowing why she called her, was she trying to pick something up again?

She didn't want to cause trouble for her upper body, so Aunt Li pretended she didn't know who she was calling, and lowered her head to happily accept the soles of her shoes.

"Aunt Li, please help me with something~" the girl said with a pitiful look.

"what's up?"

"I want to go to Huangni Mountain to find a man to marry." The girl said with a blushing face.
