Change your life: I leave my life to God

New Year's Eve coincides with the market day in the town. Almost all the residents of Yingkou Town are gathered on the street. Several nearby villages are rushing to the last market at the end of the year to buy new year's goods. To describe it in one word, it is - huge crowds of people.!

Food, entertainment, clothing, and daily necessities were all lined up on three streets. There was also a row of stalls selling couplets, New Year paintings, incense candles, and paper money in the middle of the widest street.

There is also a more remote street, where several stalls specializing in fireworks and firecrackers are also crowded with people. The sound of firecrackers sounds from time to time, making it lively and full of New Year flavor.

Brother Haonan was so excited that he finally saw such a lively market. He ran very fast with his short legs and squeezed into the crowd from time to time. However, the wool and shoes that his mother wanted to buy were on the innermost street. The little guy Seeing that the toy couldn't walk, Liao Xiaojuan could only throw him to Liao Cong and Su Tang.

It was a crowded place. Liao Cong held Haonan in one hand and Su Tang in the other. Both the big and small hands were holding a bunch of candied haws and eating them, with exactly the same naive expression. Liao Cong didn't dare to let go of Su Tang's hand. She was unfamiliar with her here, and she would be in trouble if she got lost. There were so many people, and he didn't see Su Tang's rosy face and happy expression on her eyes.

I bought candied haws, a toy golden hoop, and a monkey mask. Liao Cong refused to buy it for brother Haonan. Unless he said that his brother looked similar to Zhu Bajie, the two brothers argued. Liao Cong also hugged his little brother and moved away from the stall. It was so rough. It’s better to take a wine box and draw a nice mask yourself.

Walking to a bookstall, Brother Haonan suddenly struggled.When he was about to come down, he saw several familiar animated characters on the cover of the book and asked to read the book.

Liao Cong became interested when he looked at the row of three-finger-thick tomes. He put down his little brother and accompanied him to look through them in front of the bookstall.

The stall next to it was for buying jewelry. Su Tang told Liao Cong and looked at the stall to select. These shiny hairpins, brooches, and necklaces were very eye-catching.

The bookstall owner was slightly dissatisfied when he saw that the two brothers Liao Cong were not interested in buying. Who would he sell his books to?

Before he could say anything unpleasant, Brother Haonan had already lost interest in books and pointed at the pigeons, rabbits and other small animals in the street and was about to run over excitedly.

Liao Cong grabbed his little hand, reached out and picked him up, greeted Su Tang, and the three of them ran towards the flower, bird, fish and insect market.

Puppies, little rabbits, kittens, these little animals made Brother Haonan very jealous. He kept poking at him with his fingers. Liao Cong gently slapped his hand. Haven't you heard of rabbits biting people when they are anxious? What's more, there are dogs, even small puppies. Liao Cong felt uncomfortable even if he barked several times. Su Tang couldn't stop giggling when he saw this.

Liao Cong finally didn't return empty-handed. He bought a big bag of hawthorns to make candied haws. This thing is good for digestion during the Chinese New Year. There were no genuine books on the bookstall because the covers were shabby. The cheapest one costs five yuan. The school was much cheaper. Liao Cong negotiated the price and Fifteen got the two thickest books.

Su Tang walked around and only bought a few kinds of food, all for Brother Haonan. She also saw a person selling colored pens and bought a box, also for Brother Haonan.

The three of them first met up with Liao Cong's father who was buying firecrackers. Liao Cong's father handed the things to the three of them to look at, and then he squeezed into the market to buy the door god with the word"Fu".

In the afternoon, Liao Cong helped his father put up couplets, and helped his grandma put up the land of gods. The door gods Wei Chigong and Qin Shubao were also put up on the door, and brand new red lanterns were hung up.

Su Tang and Haonan followed, wearing masks on their heads that Liao Cong had drawn and cut out using cardboard from a wine box. Brother Haonan was a gourd baby, Su Tang was a bunny, she and Liao Huan were both rabbits, and they were bigger than Liao. Cong is one year older.

After staying there for a few days, Su Tang was no longer so shy when meeting outsiders, but she still spoke little and smiled a lot when meeting people. She only became more lively when she was with Liao Xin and the other girls.

Just after dinner, Liao Cong's parents went to Liao Xin's house diagonally across the door, carrying a bottle of wine and a big bag of Liao Cong's fried peanuts. You have to go early, otherwise it will be awkward to keep people waiting.

Liao Cong was originally going to attend a class reunion. Zhang Dai came to give instructions in the afternoon, but this guy just said he was going to Da Taozi's house and ran away. How could he have imagined that Liao Cong didn't know the Da Taozi he was talking about? I don’t even know where my family lives, and there was no one like him last time we played cards.

However, Zhang Dai still ran away on his motorcycle. Liao Cong, who was standing on a ladder hanging a lantern at that time, did not stop anyone and was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

Liao Cong was helpless. After dinner, he took Su Tang at the gate to watch the fireworks and wait to see if he could meet Zhang Dai again, or other classmates he knew.

On New Year's Eve, thousands of houses are lit with lights, and every household in Xihe Village sets off firecrackers. There are crackling firecrackers and fireworks. Several families nearby compete like you and me. Huge fireworks explode in the night sky to form unique shapes. Iron trees, silver flowers, Golden snakes dance wildly, monkeys pierce the sky, and children cheer one after another.

Su Tang didn't dare to shoot off the cannons, but she liked to watch them. She hid next to Liao Huan and covered her ears to peek. Liao Huan was quite like a general. He saw Liao Cong trying to light the incense stick for a long time but couldn't light it. He was also ignored from time to time. The younger sister-in-law was so frightened that she couldn't light it at first. She was too scared to eat, so she grabbed the incense and lit it a few times, then turned back and walked slowly.

"Bang... bang... clatter……"Against the background of the fireworks flying into the sky behind him, Liao Huan suddenly became much taller. Liao Cong's eyes were filled with brilliance, and a sentence came to his mind involuntarily: A real man never looks back to see the explosion!

Liao Cong still carefully lit a firecracker. After a burst of crackling, there was only a mess on the ground and a strong smell of gunpowder.

Su Tang and Haonan each held a bunch of spark sticks played by children. After lighting them, they shook their wrists. The sparks lit up her smiling face, and the crooked look on her eyebrows stunned Liao Cong again.

"Are you here?"Liao Xin ran over and hugged Liao Cong:"Come with me quickly, the materials are all ready and waiting for you!

Liao Cong didn't know why:"What?" Liao

Xin explained while dragging him away:"You have eaten all the peanuts you brought before it was served. Everyone said they were delicious, so I asked you to make some more.""

"I also prepared rice cakes and meatballs, please fry more!"

"Do I need to step in to blow something up? Didn’t you say you learned it?"

"You fried it deliciously!"

Chef Liao took his place, and just as he had time to say hello to his uncles and uncles, he was pulled into the kitchen by Liao Xin. After a while, the aroma spread into the living room, and Liao Xin also brought out plates of fried peanuts garnished with chili peppers with a smile.

Every time A pair of representatives from the family, plus the children who made up the numbers, filled the three tables.

Liao Xin's family had prepared quite a sumptuous meal, but for some reason, there were many other dishes, so they liked to eat the fried peanuts made by Liao Cong.

Shi Xuemei was happy Holding her belly, she said,"Your craftsmanship is pretty good. They're all fried peanuts. Why do you make them so delicious?""

Liao Cong looked at the face that was very similar to Shi Xuexia's, and couldn't help but feel a bit cordial:"Sister-in-law, they're not all peanuts, what's the difference?"

"It’s different. What you make is delicious, fragrant, spicy, and appetizing. You use seasonings from home. This must be the reason."Shi Xuemei was just pregnant and suffered from severe morning sickness. She struggled to eat. She sometimes vomited whatever she ate, but she was able to eat these fried peanuts. How amazing it was.

"I'll send you a pack later."Liao Cong smiled and knew what he was selling. That was a secret recipe he inherited from a Sichuan cuisine master.

Shi Xuemei grinned and said a little aggressively:"Then it's settled. If you forget about me, I'll go to your house. It's right across the street anyway!"

Liao Feng also came to help. Liao Cong was a big help today. The more lively the happy event, the more festive it is. But he still had to drink with him. He put his arm around Liao Cong's shoulder and laughed for a few words before going out.

"Is my brother Feng good to you?"

"good."Shi Xuemei and Liao Feng met on a blind date through someone else's introduction, and the time of contact was not short. The stage of falling in love is always different from that after marriage. She has not yet adapted well, and she is about to become an expectant mother. This news is very important to her. It was not just pure joy, but also deep anxiety. She always felt that she was not ready to be a mother yet, as if it was a little too fast.

The sounds of drinking and fisting outside could be heard inside, and Liao Cong was still busy, with many people The aunts and aunts were no longer satisfied with eating, and boldly asked to take them home. Some of the smart ones even ordered the daughters-in-law to go home and get peanuts.

Liao Xin's mother hurriedly stopped her, and said grandly how much a bag of peanuts was worth. Money, their family has grown a lot this year, and they are happy today. They can eat it and take it without any problem!

This is very difficult for Liao Cong. However, he has no human rights and can only be busy pot after pot.

Shi Xuemei can't smell it now. Because of the smell of alcohol, An Sheng hid in the kitchen and pretended to help.

Liao Cong and Shi Xuemei asked about Shi Xuexia's news. However, Shi Xuemei had not returned to her parents' home for a while. The specific news was not known. They only knew that Shi Xuexia had a younger brother. I don't know why. , the full moon banquet has not been held yet.

Liao Cong was silent for a while. Since the holiday, Shi Xuexia has contributed nearly a hundred bond points to herself. Both the frequency and the value are weird. It is impossible for him not to think more:"Sister-in-law, Are you going back to your parents’ home on the second day of junior high school? Shi

Xuemei nodded:"Come back, your brother has agreed with Liao Hui's family to borrow their car when the time comes.""Even if you borrow a car, it's a big face-saving thing.

Liao Cong wrote down the date and prepared to make some snacks for Shi Xuemei to bring to Shi Xuexia, and to find out what she was like.

Zhang Dai rescued Liao Cong, and he seemed to have already After drinking some wine, I waited and waited for Liao Cong to come, but Wu Yanling still showed off the paintings drawn by Liao Cong, so she volunteered to arrest Liao Cong and returned to the team.

Walking on the already deserted street, Zhang Dai punched Hammering on Liao Cong's shoulder:"Good boy, you've only been back for a few days and you're already hooking up with Wu Yanling?

Liao Cong chuckled:"I just happened to bump into him when I was getting a haircut, so I only said a few words."

Zhang Dai, smelling of alcohol, put his arms around Liao Cong's neck:"Just happened to touch him?" You're lying, that painting makes all the girls jealous, just wait for them to ask you for it. Liao Cong paused and said,"

Why don't I go?""

"dare!"Zhang Dai glared at Liao Cong. How could this guy be so cowardly to attract girls? He just tried his best to please Jiang Honghong, but with little success. Picking up girls is really a skill. He is very different from Liao Cong in this aspect. Far away.

Zhang Dai shook his head gently:"You'd better stay away from Wu Yanling"

"What's wrong? Zhang

Dai sneered:"This girl is not simple. She said she was working in Shishi City, but she didn't say anything when asked what she was doing. However, Dafei and Huzi told others that she was working as a bartender in Shishi City.……"

Liao Cong frowned:"Isn't this nonsense?"

Zhang Dai patted Liao Cong on the shoulder:"Anyway, just be careful and don't mess with that girl."
