slack farmer in the wasteland

Chapter 588 New Year's Eve
Cang Hai drank too much wine at night, not only woke up late the next day, but also forgot to clean up the embarrassment. The affairs in the village are usually heated up for two to three minutes, and there is no argument like embarrassment. No one mentioned in front of Cang Hai how big the waves were, and Cang Hai forgot about the things he had done so hard once he became leisurely in his day.

The people on Shang Qingyun's side wished that everyone would not mention it, so this matter quickly disappeared in front of everyone.

As the days go by, the new body is getting closer day by day, and the atmosphere of the New Year in the village is getting stronger day by day. There are not many people coming to the village to celebrate the New Year this year, like Shi Zhenbang's family. Shi Jie's family celebrates the New Year, and Qi Yue's family is planning to take advantage of the New Year to go abroad for a family trip. The teacher Guan Qidong's family is also not coming, it seems that because relatives are coming this year.

None of the regulars here came here, and the people living in the village have gone home for the New Year one after another. Now there are only Sijiaping villagers and a few outsiders left in the whole village.

Early in the morning, Cang Hai got up and started to get busy, because to give everyone New Year’s goods, the old man’s family must have a copy, and Qi Yue’s family does not need to send it today, because when going abroad, Cang Hai’s teacher Guan Qidong also has a copy. Cang Hai's friends also prepared a small portion. As for Wen Yiyi, I won't mention it. He wants whatever he likes, so Cang Hai doesn't need to make a special effort. ready.

"Don't put the salted duck eggs there, don't forget it when you leave," Shi Wei said to Cang Hai.

After hearing this, Cang Hai immediately reached out and picked up the salted duck eggs on the table: "Dad, are you going to eat these two boxes every day during the Chinese New Year?"

Shi Wei said: "No, my mother said it specially, saying that my uncle likes to eat this, last time I gave my uncle a dozen or so, and he ate it for almost half a month...".

Hearing what Shi Wei said, Cang Hai was speechless.

The couple was busy here, Hu Shijie walked in from the outside, and when he saw so many things in the room, he couldn't help sighing.

"Good guy, are you going to move?"

Hu Shijie saw that there were fish and meat in the house, and there were fruits besides these. Just looking at Hu Shijie, he knew that these were the fruits grown by the village.

I took an apple from the small basket in my hand and rubbed it on my body. I bit it down and the sweetness was slightly sour, which made people feel very refreshing.

"The fruit in the village is still delicious! I will plant a few more fruit trees when the spring blooms next year," Hu Shijie said.

Cang Hai asked, "What's the matter? There's not enough food at home?"

Hu Shijie nodded: "That's enough. Our family's fruit has been eaten up as soon as the winter comes. We are not as simple as your family. Our fruit comes to the twenty or so households who want it. Which one will it be given to?" It’s not good not to give it to anyone, and you can’t be too stingy if you give it away. You can’t give away a three-pound, five-pound one. Such a small basket per person, send it to your own home and eat it. It’s not bad if you can last until winter. ".

Hu Shijie's fruit planting is not small, but as he said, he has many relatives, and the two sons' homes do not have fruit trees, so the fruit for others must not come from Hu Shijie's house.

Just as he was talking, Zhang Jiusheng's voice came from outside: "Cang Hai, are everything ready? Hurry up and move the car up, we are leaving."

After the words fell, the man had already stood in the room, and seeing Hu Shijie was there, Zhang Jiusheng cupped his hands at Hu Shijie: "Grandpa Hu, let me wish you a happy new year first, and wish you an early year!"

Hu Shijie nodded lightly with a smile, and then joked with Zhang Jiusheng: "You boy stay at home well, why don't you go outside during the Chinese New Year? I didn't hear any reports on TV. When the Chinese celebrate the New Year, Europeans It's all Chinese faces!"

Zhang Jiusheng’s family is not at home for the New Year this year. They are not going to Europe as Hu Shijie said, but New Zealand. Not long ago, Zhang Jiusheng bought a house in New Zealand. It is said that the door faces the sea and the spring flowers are blooming. Xinxin Jiner went on vacation, and originally called Canghai's family, but Canghai and his wife really didn't want to run around during the New Year, so they decided to stay honestly in the village for the New Year.

"It's too cold here during the Chinese New Year. Let's change to a warmer place. We're going to the southern hemisphere. It's summer there now, which is the opposite of our climate. Why don't you go with me, old man, and I'll take you to the beach to see Look, Yishui babes!" Zhang Jiusheng joked.

After hearing this, Hu Shijie stretched his legs and made a gesture to kick the boy, but Zhang Jiusheng gave way to him lightly.

"All?"

"It's all!" Cang Hai nodded.

Zhang Jiusheng sighed: "Good guy, after I become friends with you, I don't need to buy anything during the Chinese New Year, I just need you to give it to me."

Cang Hai smiled and said, "It's nothing valuable!"

"It's worthless and I haven't seen you sell it to me!" Zhang Jiusheng said to Cang Hai with a smile.

Canghai's food is delicious, and now the whole village recognizes it. Whether it's meat or pickled things, Canghai's is the best.However, everyone can still buy beef and sheep, such as bacon, which is not easy to open your mouth. After all, every household has the habit of salting, so you can't rely on the little things pickled by Cang Hai's family to live.

"Pack it up!"

Cang Hai took out the bamboo basket next to the door, and put the things that had been divided on the table into it one by one. Hu Shijie and Zhang Jiusheng also came to help when they saw this, and quickly divided the things under the four people's busy work. Pick it up.

When the things were loaded onto the car, sporadic snowflakes began to float in the sky.

"Auspicious snow heralds a good year, next year will definitely be another good year!"

Seeing the snowflakes falling, Hu Shijie, who had just gotten into the car, took off his gloves, gently caught a snowflake, saw the snowflake slowly turning into a small water stain in his palm, and said with a smile.

Zhang Jiusheng's next sentence completely wiped out the bit of literary spirit that Hu Shijie had managed to sustain.

"Then let's go quickly, lest it will be difficult to walk when the snow is heavy! Well, Cang Hai, Shi Wei, I'm leaving. Grandpa Hu, don't be angry with me, go home early and squat on the kang Go play mahjong," Zhang Jiusheng said with a smile.

Hu Shijie said: "Can't you stop being so philistine?"

"I'm just a small businessman. If I'm not a philistine, what would I do? Be a poet. That's fine. I don't want to talk anymore. I have to leave quickly. I don't know how long the snow will last."

As he said that, Zhang Jiusheng signaled his workers to start off in their cars, then waved his hands at Cang Hai and ran towards his home with Xiao Pao.

Cang Hai and Shi Wei sent off Zhang Jiusheng and Hu Shijie.

After entering the house, Shi Wei remembered: "Cang Hai, send these two baskets of fruit to Grandpa Hu's house."

"Where did they come from?" Cang Hai looked curiously at the fruits in the house. The things in the house were all given away, and he didn't see Shi Wei going to the water tower, so why suddenly there were two more baskets of fruits.

Cang Hai came to the side of the small basket, opened it, and saw that the box above his head happened to be the small apples that Hu Shijie ate just now, and the box below was filled with pears. He said that the baskets are actually not big, and each basket can hold about ten Pounds of fruit.

Now Cang Hai will not give people away as fiercely as before. They are all small baskets of about ten kilograms. Pick up four or five kinds, or make four baskets, or make six baskets to get an auspicious number. The total weight is about fifty or sixty catties, which is enough for a normal family of four or five to live a good year.

"I withheld it from the pile of things I gave to my brother's house," Shi Wei said.

After hearing this, Cang Hai said unintentionally: "Didn't Yan Li's mother like to eat fruit? Shi Jie also specially asked you to give more!"

Shi Wei said: "Her mother likes to eat, so she can buy it herself. Why does my sister have to care if my brother and mother-in-law like it or not?"

Cang Hai suddenly understood that Shi Wei still had a problem with the matter of looking after the child, and felt that Shi Jie's mother-in-law was a little unreasonable.

Of course, Cang Hai's position has always been very stable, he is completely on the side of his wife.In fact, both of them understood that almost all the things given to Shijie were sent to his old mother-in-law as soon as the boy turned his face.Now this matter is also normal. Generally speaking, if there are more powerful women in the family, the mother's family will naturally get more benefits, or how can I say that having a son is a loser now.I was in a rush to buy a house and a car for him to marry a wife, but it turned out that there was an extra free long-term worker on the other side of the in-laws.

It's just that standing in line and returning to the line, Cang Hai doesn't want to talk about other people's affairs.

As for the fruit that the mother-in-law who cares about Shi Jie eats or not, it is even more nonsense. Cang Hai never thought of this at all. Hearing that Shi Wei took the fruit from Shi Jie, he held it in his hand without saying a word Walked towards Hu Shijie's house.

When I arrived at Grandpa Hu's house, I found that the old man was practicing calligraphy in the room alone.

"Look, I didn't mean to ask you to bring fruit over!" Seeing Cang Hai carrying two baskets, Hu Shijie immediately put down the pen in his hand and said in embarrassment.

Cang Hai smiled and said: "You are an elder, you have to remember that we are juniors, you are welcome, this fruit was withheld from his younger brother by Shi Wei...".

Hu Shijie heard about the key point, so he could only smile, seeing Cang Hai put down his things, he said to Cang Hai: "Come and see, how do I write these two characters?"

Calligraphy was brought over by two old men, Qu Guowei and Xu Sheng, and promoted. Now the old men in the village practice their strokes when they have nothing to do. It's not like it's a hundred and eight thousand miles away.But the writing is horizontal and straight, and it looks quite regular.

"That's right, that's right, what you've written already has the essence of three-point facial features!" Cang Hai boasted very hypocritically.

Hu Shijie knew his own affairs, so he didn't care about Cang Hai's bragging. He just looked at the work in front of him and began to tell Cang Hai about his shortcomings.

After talking for a while, the old man let Cang Hai leave.

As soon as Cang Hai went out, he found that the snowflakes in the sky were much bigger than before. The whole sky was gray, and the small village was covered in snow like goose feathers.
