Chapter 83 Year 28
Soon it was Xiaonian, and on this day, the village was full of excitement.In addition to the traditional "New Year's 28, clean the sloppy", there is a custom in the village to do "粫" to kill the chicken and respect the stove king.At this time, people who were away from home all returned to the village from the city. It was bustling, and everyone's face was full of joy.

In the morning, when my mother and sister-in-law took me and Qin Rong to wash clothes by the river, the river was already very lively.Because no matter men, women, young or old, all the tables, chairs, dishes and chopsticks at home are moved to the river to be washed, so the laundry slate by the river has long been crowded with people, which is even more sensational than when my mother and I went to the supermarket for a big sale in the previous life. It's almost like spring travel.

"Sister, I want to go down too." Qin Rong is already more acquainted than me in the village, and his popularity made me ashamed.She even knew which hen laid a few eggs.

"Hmm..." I looked at the river with black lines on my forehead like dumpling, I really don't understand why Qin Rong is so interested.

"Let's go and wash all the things at home, shall we?" Qin Rong watched enviously as he carried the wooden tables into the river, washed them with water, and brushed them cheerfully with a sun-dried loofah ladle, as if wishing to Brush away the dust, dirt, and bad luck accumulated over the past year.

"..." I couldn't even utter a single word after hearing this. As for the long table in our house, which is comparable to a conference table, if it is lifted out, I can't imagine the sensation it will cause.Just like when the table was ready and delivered to the door, no matter the villagers, tourists, or passers-by were talking about it, it really didn't conform to our low-key habit.

"Sister..." Qin Rong snickered in her heart, but she was actually teasing me, because my sister is really boring, she is so silent every day.She likes to see her sister's helpless appearance, as interesting as it can be!It seems that my own pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger is quite good, but my sister didn't see through it.

"Mom and the others have already washed the tables and chairs at home." I spoke carefully, trying to dispel Qin Rong's whim.To Qin Rong, I really feel overwhelmed, saying that she looks like a child, but apart from her simple personality, everything else is pretty normal.For her, I really can't do what I did with my two cousins.However, it was useless.

"Then let's remove the mosquito net and wash it." Qin Rong scratched subconsciously with both hands, looking at her sister's cautious appearance, it is really tempting to commit crimes!This is simply telling myself to pinch her face.

"Everything in the house has been cleaned. If you like to play, we will come back tomorrow when there are not so many people after today." I avoided her big watery eyes. She looked at me like this, which made me feel good. feel guilty.That's right, no wonder she, she's been alone in the space for hundreds of years, she must be suffocated, so now she thinks it's fun to see everything.

"Okay then, but don't lie!" Qin Rong still didn't have the guts to pinch her sister's face, and she finally understood why her sister always liked to pinch her own face.Because if you really don't pinch it, you will be too sorry for that cute little face!

I didn't make a sound, just looked away.As the sun rises, the whole village gradually emerges from the mist, and the soft, transparent sunlight shines on every corner like that. Even though the village is very lively, even if the pop music of Hong Kong City is playing everywhere, even so, the sun is still there. Slowly rising from the east, driving away the mist over the village, driving away the continuous moisture on the mountain, until the whole world is glowing with new brilliance because of the sun.

This kind of scenery is really, really good!Although in my previous life I had never experienced the feeling of standing at the highest place and being overwhelmed by the cold, I still miss the simple life of farming at sunrise and working at sunset in this small village in the urban Shishi forest.When I was a child, the chirping of cicadas during a nap in the summer, and the lighting of fireflies after the shower at night were all irreplaceable beauty for me.Not to mention that the dogtail grass is withered in winter, and everyone hides in the grass talking about boundless dreams, listening to the aunt bird that only calls "aunt" and "aunt" in winter.

The adults in the family will take the trouble to tell the children that the aunt bird is a disobedient bird, because it didn't listen to the adults when it was a child, and ate the dishes on the stove while cooking, but was knocked to death by the stove master with a spatula up.The story is simple, just the level of education is open to question.I think of when I was told such a story by an adult when I was a child, I only knew that I couldn’t eat it secretly, and if I happened to be unlucky, I would be rewarded with a spatula when the kitchen god appeared, and even more unlucky, I would be beaten to death . (PS: As far as I know, the aunt bird is a kind of partridge bird, but because the sound is very similar to calling aunt, it was named aunt bird by the people in the village. It is a silent tribute for the innocent aunt who was involved... )
