Reborn farm girl

Chapter 14

After the reunion at my grandmother's house, the family also began to prepare to bring my aunt back for a reunion, and the day was set on the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month. On the [-]th day, Mrs. Song and Zhang took their two daughters-in-law to push out the glutinous rice with a mill, and prepared to eat glutinous rice balls tomorrow morning.On the morning of the [-]th day, the whole family got up early, cooked and ate the glutinous rice balls, and prepared for the New Year.

Because it was the Chinese New Year, Mrs. Song and Mrs. Zhang were generous once in a while and asked Mrs. Lin to kill an old hen that didn't lay much eggs.Liuya took out the half of the pig's head again.Although a hen was killed, Mrs. Song and Zhang only brought out two catties of meat, which was not enough for such a large family.

Naturally, during the meal, he was praised by Old Man Song and Auntie.However, Liu Ya has calmed down after hearing too many compliments.

After eating, the aunt's family didn't stay any longer, and went home directly.As soon as the aunt's house left, the whole family started to blow up dust, washed everything that needed to be washed, sewed everything that needed to be sewn, and fixed everything.Because tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year, we will live on our heads, we cannot use needles, knives, or house sweeping.

When you are busy, time flies very fast.In the evening, reheat the leftovers and eat them casually.I was busy making noodles, stomping meat, rolling out dumpling wrappers, and making dumplings.The whole family is very busy.

After the dumplings are made, everyone starts to watch the year, and children like Liuya don't have to participate in the activity of watching the year.However, this is simply a piece of cake for those who used to stay up late.But now that she is a child, she can't be too independent, so she goes to bed with Qiya and the others.

As soon as the time came, he heard someone setting off firecrackers outside, so old man Song asked Boss Song to set off firecrackers, while Mrs. Lin and Mrs. He went to boil the dumplings.After the dumplings were cooked, they called Liu Ya and the others to eat the dumplings.

Throughout the year in the Song family, it is rare to eat dumplings once, and even if you eat once, you can't enjoy it to your heart's content.Like Liuya and the others, there are only six in each bowl, no more and no less.This is what Mrs. Song and Zhang scooped into the bowl by counting on the stove.Daya and Erya are older and there are eight each.There are only ten Lin and He families.However, the three sons, Song Zhang is still willing to, twenty in each bowl, Zhang old man is the head of the family, only 25.Song Zhang's status in the Song family is not comparable to that of ordinary people, and there are only fifteen in her bowl.Mrs. Li is in confinement, and this year, she will receive the same treatment as Song and Zhang's fifteen.And there is no baby boy like Yaya.

When Liu Ya saw Mrs. Song and Zhang on the stove, counting and scooping up the dumplings, she didn't even know she gave Song and Zhang's eyes several times.It's just once a year, and I don't want to let people eat enough. It's really more Grandet than that Grandet.

There are only six dumplings in the area, and they are all finished in six, three, five, and two.I still want to eat, but everyone has so little, so bear with it.When she finds a way to make money, she must have eaten enough.

After eating the dumplings, it was time to pay New Year's greetings to Old Man Song and Mrs. Song Zhang. First, Mr. Song brought Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Da Ya to pay New Year's greetings to the two elders, and Mr. Song gave Mrs. Song a red envelope.Then there was Song Laoer's family again. Now, Song Zhang's face was not very good-looking, not for anything else, but for the seven children of the second room. Even if one penny was put in the red envelope, it would add up to seven pennies.Adding in what old man Song gave, that's fourteen Wen.These fourteen pennies can buy half a catty of meat, and it hurts to think about it.No matter how unwilling Song Zhang is to give red envelopes, the New Year's money must be given no matter what.

The next thing was Song Laosan alone representing Sanfang to pay New Year's greetings. This time Song and Zhang gave red envelopes very happily.Neither Song Laosi nor Song Xiaogu had a family, so the two elders also gave red envelopes.

This is New Year's greetings for the old couple of the Song family, and they are going to pay New Year's greetings to the old man Song's brothers.This time it was Old Song who took the right lead and dispatched with his sons and granddaughters.And Song Zhang and his two daughters-in-law stayed in the house, in case there was no one at home when others came to pay New Year's greetings.

Since it was not yet dawn, two torches were lit.After leaving the gate, it was very lively outside.Many people in the village are lighting torches to pay New Year's greetings.On the way, I met several families.

As soon as I arrived at the grandpa's house, the grandma took out the melon seeds, candy and so on that she bought to entertain a few children.Liuya and the others were not polite, and put them directly in their pockets.The big ones are not as good as Liu Ya and the small ones, but they just mean that each of them grabbed a handful.

But no matter how you take it today, adults will not say anything.Because, wait a minute, their children will return it when they pay New Year's greetings.After leaving the grandpa's house, I went to the second grandpa's house.When leaving the second grandpa's house, Liuya's two pockets were full, and the result was very good.

Not long after old man Song and the others came back, the grandpa, the son and grandson of the second grandpa's family came to pay New Year's greetings.In the same way, Mrs. Song and Zhang will take out the prepared snacks and let the children grab them.

This group of people is also not polite, it is like locusts crossing the border, there is no basket of melon seeds left.Ever since Song Zhang took out the basket, Liu Ya has been looking at Song Zhang, seeing the heartache on Song Zhang's face, Liu Ya almost couldn't help laughing, but Si Ya pinched her beside her. She didn't laugh for a moment.

This year's prayers are over, and everyone is going to visit the Song family's ancestors' graves. However, girls like Liu Ya and the others don't have their share in this matter.

Mrs. Song and Zhang looked at the other two families with their sons and grandchildren, and their third house, the old man Song with four sons, did not have a grandson behind him.Don't mention how uncomfortable it is in my heart, today is the first day of the year, and I can't swear, Song Zhang can only stare at Lin and He a few times, and then relieve some hatred.

As soon as Mrs. Song and Zhang left, Liuya and the others also went back to their room, ready to go to bed.

"Mother, can you give me the red envelope we got today?" As soon as we got back to the house, Liu Ya started thinking about the red envelope.

"Don't you have it yourself? Why do you want ours?" Si Ya asked with a frown.She also wanted to use the two pennies to buy candy.

"That's right, what are you doing with the money?" He asked puzzled.

"Mom, I want to buy some pig offal. Last time I made the bacon, everyone said it was delicious, so I wanted to make more and put it in the house. It's spring, and our family is going to be busy. At that time, we can also eat meat." There is no separation, and she can't make money for the family, so she can only start from the aspect of life, so that the family can live a better life.

"I think it's okay. After we go to your grandma's house to pay a visit, we'll buy some more. Save it for when you're busy." Mrs. He also felt that this method was feasible, and agreed to Liuya's proposal.

Seeing that Mr. He agreed, several children handed it over without any objection.It's just that Si Ya felt very distressed. Seeing that the sisters had all brought them out, she had no choice but to hand them over.
