pastoral little wife

Chapter 228 New Year's Day (5)
Seeing that Yunying couldn't help but finish drinking, she had already drank four glasses, even fruit wine would still get on her head, and she was a little dizzy.

Yun Duo was also a little dizzy.

After eating some more, Nie Dalang said, "Grandma Yang is probably asleep too. We don't need to watch the year, just go to bed! Just wake up early tomorrow!"

Thinking that Grandma Yang was still waiting to open the door, Yun Ying hurriedly cleared the table, hugged Yun and went out laughing.

Yun Duo followed Nie Dalang and sent them to Granny Yang's house.

After being blown by the wind outside, Yun Duo just felt a little clear, and then came up again.Walking is also a little wobbly.

"Let you drink so much, come on?" Nie Dalang supported her.

Yun Duo pouted, hugged his arm and walked, "It's fruit wine, I can't get drunk, I just don't want to walk."

Seeing the little man holding his arm, almost leaning towards him, Nie Dalang's heart throbbed.The little girl was already relying on him.With a flick of his eyes, he supported Yun Duo and squatted down, "I'm carrying you behind my back."

Yun Duo is not confused, Nie Dalang is a frail young man who has been ill for ten years, and she is not serious, so how can he let him carry it.Reach out and pull him up, "I'll hold your arm."

Nie Dalang turned his back and took her by the hand, pulled her onto his back, and started to carry her, "You are only a few catties, and I carried all the deer I picked up on the mountain."

Yun Duo lay on his back and laughed, "You obviously dragged it back."

Nie Dalang turned to look at her with a smile, and carried her home.

Every household is watching the year, the lights are on in the house, and the whole family stays together.Yun Duo turned his head and looked again and again, feeling disappointed.

When they got home, Nie Dalang scooped up hot water, the two of them soaked their feet, and sat on the kang. Yun Duo asked, "Should we keep the New Year's Eve? I think everyone in the village is watching the New Year's Eve!"

"Let's just turn on the lights, let's go to sleep!" Nie Dalang pulled the quilt up and told her to lie down quickly.

Yun Duo nodded, yawned, and fell asleep.

I don't know if it was because of drinking or being too tired from the busy day, but Yun Duo quickly fell asleep.

Nie Dalang did not sleep, staring at her sleeping face.While eating, he could see that Yun Duo was not as happy as on the surface. The loss and longing in her eyes made him couldn't help but question himself in his heart.Just keep her like this, leave her without considering her, such a selfish way, is it really right?

During the festive season, she misses her relatives a lot, and her relatives are not Yunying and Yunxiao, otherwise she would not say that she is destined, and not knowing Yunying would also be missing and disappointed.She makes herself happy and makes others happy.My heart is lonely.There are no relatives here to make her miss.

Nie Dalang caressed her little face gently, and suddenly became jealous of the person she missed.Besides parents and family, who else is there?

Yun Duo turned over in his sleep, and stretched out his hand to hold Nie Dalang's hand.

Nie Dalang was startled and almost withdrew his hand.

"Dad..." Yun Duo rubbed his hand, thinking it belonged to her father.

Nie Dalang was full of doubts, bully?Who is this person?For the first time in so long, she called out such a person's name.There is no first and last name, so intimately called a person, a man's name...

Yun Duo had a good night's sleep, but Nie Dalang almost sat like a sculpture, his eyebrows were knotted.

The sound of firecrackers sounded outside, and Yun Duo woke up, "We're all up so early."

"Do you want to sleep again?" Nie Dalang asked her gently.

"Don't sleep anymore." Yun Duo shook his head.Although she was still sleepy, it was impossible for the firecrackers to be set off by only one family, so it was impossible for her to fall asleep if the firecrackers sounded all the time.

Nie Dalang got up, first poured the hot water on the stove to wash, opened the door, and fired the door cannon.

Yun Duo also got up, washed up, and started cooking dumplings.

Nie Dalang placed an offering on the table, including apples, pears, oranges, red dates, steamed buns, meat, and a Chinese cabbage.The altar table was set, and Nie Dalang burned incense.

Clouds boil water.

Over there, Yunying hugged Yun and smiled.Putting down Yun Xiao, she went to help.

Yun Duo mixed the cold salad and seasoning sauce that he had made last night, served it to the table, grabbed the steamed buns, and served dumplings.The mutton stuffing and the pork stuffing are divided into half.

After the dumplings were put into the pot, Nie Dalang lit firecrackers in the yard.

There was a crackling sound, Yun Xiao covered his ears and hid behind the door.

When the firecrackers were set off, the dumplings just came out of the pot, and the offered dumplings were served, one bowl for each person. The dumplings in the pot could not be scooped up, and there were some left over.

It was only a few hours after eating, and it was still dark, but the outside was already bustling with excitement. Nie Shen ran over wearing a new cotton coat, "Sister Yunduo! Big Brother! I'm here to celebrate the New Year!"

Followed by Nie Shenniang, told him not to run so fast.

Yun Duo called his wife to come in, and hurriedly brought melon seeds, candy and snacks to them.

Nie Shenniang smiled, "Shen'er! You see, my sister's house hasn't finished eating yet, let's go to another house first, and we will play with my sister later!"

"Okay! I'll come back later!" Nie Shen nodded obediently.

Yun Duo smiled and patted his head.

Before the meal was finished, other people came, and the peers did not say New Year's greetings, but said auspicious new year, and wished a happy new year, but there are still many elders in the village, whether they are surnamed Nie or Yang.Therefore, the younger generation will go to various houses to pay New Year's greetings together.

In the past at this time, Nie Dalang would always be nestled in the house, wrapped in a quilt, or sick, and Nie Erlang and Nie Sanlang would go to pay New Year's greetings.

Shangen's younger brother Nie Baogen, four or five boys, and a few girls all came over.

Yun Duo's dumplings were getting cold, so he simply took the basket and handed it to them, letting them eat whatever they wanted.

From time to time, Nie Erlang brought Sun Yinger, Nie Sanlang, Nie Silang, and Nie Mei Nielan over.

Most of the peanuts, melon seeds and candies in the basket had gone down, and Nie Silang was busy grabbing the basket, filling two big bags full.

Nie Lan snatched him over, "If you're done pretending, the people behind will still eat!"

"There are more of them!" Nie Silang rolled his eyes.

Yun Duo pursed her lips and hurriedly ate.

Yunying put away the bowls and chopsticks.She was not in the mood to wash the pot, and she couldn't empty the pot from the first day to the fifth day of the new year, so she cleaned the bowls and chopsticks, and asked Nie Dalang and Yun Duo to go out to pay New Year's greetings, and she happened to be at home watching the door.

Yun Duo and Nie Dalang first went to the old house to pay New Year greetings to the Gan family, old man Nie, and Zhang family Nie Dagui.She didn't do the kowtow, she just imitated Nie Dalang, arching her hands and bending over.

Liu's dissatisfaction reminded, "Is it just like this for New Year's greetings? You don't even kowtow!?"

Yun Duo pretended not to hear.Chinese etiquette should be carried forward, but before she arrives, no matter who she is, she kowtows.

Nie Dalang paid New Year's greetings, and said, "We got up late, and we don't know when the New Year's greetings will be until, so let's go around first."

"Go! Let Erlang Saburo and the others join you!" Gan nodded.

Nie Dalang led Yun Duo out without saying anything.

Nie Erlang and the others followed suit.

First I went to Granny Yang's house, she was the highest seniority in the village, then I went to Nie Lizheng's house, and then I started to visit people with the same surname.

Some will prepare peanuts and melon seeds, or candies, balls, etc., as well as fried hemp leaves and sanzi.Except for those whose family conditions were really bad, they prepared some food, and when they saw Yun Duo and Nie Dalang coming, they brought them out to greet them.

Nie Silang discovered that following these two people can eat a lot of things and take a lot of things. In the past, when they paid New Year's greetings, many people didn't have anything to eat for them.

Nie Lan's pocket was also full several times. She put everything in her pocket home and came out again.

Everyone in the village also noticed that Nie Erlang and his party followed Nie Dalang and Yun Duo. Take a little to taste, it's cheaper to give Nie Silang a few.

Those with sharp eyesight and quick hands saw Nie Erlang following, and immediately stopped taking food out.

Nie Silang muttered in the back about the stinginess of the few who didn't give anything.

After turning around, Nie Erlang called Nie Dalang to stop, "Everyone else's family has gone, Fan Ju's family should also go to pay New Year's greetings, right?" The relationship was so good before, but they stopped seeing each other all of a sudden, and didn't even ask a question during the New Year?
Nie Dalang looked coldly, "Fan Ju's family has a lot of people coming and going, and none of them are from the village. It's better not to bother me at this meeting."

"I see that many people in the village have gone, no matter what, we should go to pay New Year's greetings!" Nie Erlang laughed, "I don't know why I offended Fan Ju before, so let's take this opportunity, Take it easy. After all, our village still depends on the protection of the Fan family."

Nie Dalang pursed his lips and smiled, "How do you know that I offended someone? Do you think it can be eased just by passing the New Year's greetings?" He took a deep look at him, and took Yun Duo home, "There are two more It’s late, we’ll wait until it’s daylight before we go.”

Yun Duo responded and followed him home.

Nie Erlang looked at the backs of the two of them and frowned.What's the matter, making such a fuss?Let Nie Dalang dare to offend Fan Ju and not ask for peace?
Nie Lan took a look, then pulled Nie Mei and Nie Dalang Yunduo away.

Nie Dalang looked at the two people who followed him, but said nothing.

It's just that before the few people got home, they saw a few people around the door, some were crying, and Mrs. Yamane's sister-in-law said loudly, "Go find her! Then she will come. If you dare to steal the money from the offering, you can hide." Can't hide from her!"
