This female barber is very skilled

Tang Qing, Wang Xinjie, and Wang Carpenter stayed up all night on New Year's Eve, and returned happily all the way from the Li's old house to the Tang's small courtyard.

On the first day of the new year, how many people are frowning?

But when he saw his father standing at the gate of the small courtyard early in the morning looking around anxiously, Tang Qing's mood fell from the sky to the bottom in an instant.

When Tang Qing's father saw Tang Qing coming home, together with Wang Xinjie and Wang Carpenter, the frown on his face immediately spread, and he congratulated Wang Carpenter with his fists in his hands:
"Master Wang, happy new year!"

"Manager Tang, happy new year, I wish you a happy new year!"

Carpenter Wang hurriedly cupped his fists in return.

"Xinjie, Happy New Year!"

"Grandpa Tang, Happy New Year!"

Tang Qing's father and Wang Xinjie wished each other a happy new year, but they didn t say hello to Tang Qing, or even look at her.

Tang Qing was anxious, and deliberately stepped forward to stand between his father and Wang Xinjie.

Tang Qing's father still ignored Tang Qing, as if he hadn't seen her, he turned around and greeted Carpenter Wang:
"Master Wang, come in quickly, come in quickly, the sugar tea has been brewed, it's delicious."

"Okay, okay, drink sugar tea, drink sugar tea!"

Tang Qing's father and Carpenter Wang walked into the small courtyard together with a smile.

Drinking sugar tea on the first day of the first lunar month is a Spring Festival custom for Shancheng people, which means "tasting the sweetness" and hoping for a sweet life in the new year.

Tang Qing looked at the back of his father, feeling angry in his heart, thinking, you just had a sad face, worried that something would happen if I didn t return all night.Seeing that I have nothing to do now, he deliberately put me aside and wanted to punish me.Hmph, let's see how I fix you, Manager Tang.

Tang Qing called Wang Xinjie to his side, and bit her ear for a while.

"Master Jiujin, isn't this bad?"

"What's wrong? Wouldn't it be good to let him exercise on the first day of the new year?"

"Master Jiujin, you are really bad, hee hee."

"Wait a minute and don't laugh."

Tang Qing and Wang Xinjie walked into the small courtyard one after the other.

Eunuch Tang Qing was just serving those onions, leeks and garlic in the small courtyard.

"Hey, Dad, why are you still at home?"

Tang Qing walked to his father-in-law.

The father-in-law raised his head and asked suspiciously:

"Where am I going if I'm not at home?"

"Oh, Dad, haven't you been notified? Today, the business system is holding an event. Retirees above the middle-level cadres climb the deer tire mountain. The first one to climb will get a New Year's red envelope of 1000 yuan!"

Tang Qing's voice was so loud that even people outside the small courtyard could hear it.

"A 1000 yuan New Year's red envelope? Alas, it's a pity that I'm just an ordinary employee, and your dad is a retiree above the middle level. Huh? Why didn't your dad go? I have to tell him, don't you know? "

Eunuch Tang Qing was honest, put down the small iron pick in his hand, turned around and ran to the main house.

"Don't listen to her nonsense, how could I not know about such activities?"

Tang Qing's father's voice came from the main house.

Tang Qing pretended not to hear, and watched those onions, leeks and garlic with Wang Xinjie on the ground.

"Qing'er, is your information accurate?"

Eunuch Tang Qing returned to his hometown to check with Tang Qing.

Tang Qing replied casually:

"I'm not sure if it's accurate or not. Anyway, the office director of the Commercial Bureau told me personally."…

"Did he tell you? It must be right."

Eunuch Tang Qing turned around and wanted to enter the main room to report to Tang Qing's father.

Tang Qing's father actually closed his ears early, and when Tang Qing said that the director of the office told her the news, he walked out of the main house and asked Tang Qing himself on the ground:

"When did you meet him?"

Tang Qing turned his head and ignored his father.

"Hey, let me ask you."

Tang Qing's father approached Tang Qing.

Tang Qing turned around, but still ignored him.

"Grandpa Tang, someone did tell Master Jiujin about this just now, and asked you if you went, saying that if you go late, the New Year's red envelopes will probably be snatched up."

Wang Xinjie interjected from the side, her voice was as low as that of a mosquito, and her confidence was obviously lacking.

"Ah? Is there such a thing? Why didn't anyone inform me? Don't they think I'm a retired cadre? I also retired from the position of manager of the people's barber shop, regardless of level or deputy department. No way. , I have to grab a New Year's red envelope!"

Tang Qing's father pushed open the courtyard door while talking, and hurriedly ran towards Lushan Park.

"Master Jiujin, Grandpa Tang has really gone up."

Seeing Tang Qing's father go out, Wang Xinjie came over and pulled the corner of Tang Qing's clothes, feeling very sorry.

Tang Qing smiled at Wang Xinjie, patted her hand, and comforted her:
"Didn't I say it? Climbing the Deer Tail Mountain on the first day of the Lunar New Year is a very auspicious thing. He should thank you."

"But I lied after all?"

"My heart is clean, white lies are sometimes more beneficial than the truth. Don't think too much, go drink sugar tea."

Tang Qing took Wang Xinjie's hand and walked towards the main room.

"Mom, the eldest mother-in-law gave me this thing."

As soon as Tang Qing walked into the main room, Xiaoqiang came forward with a jade pendant in his hand.

Tang Qing took the jade pendant and looked at it, his expression changed drastically.

I saw that this piece of jade pendant was light yellow, translucent, and the hanging eye was a Siamese Pixiu.There is a branch of wintersweet in full bloom engraved on the body, and on one of the flowers of wintersweet is a cursive "Li character" with strong strokes, which complements the lifelike wintersweet and the lifelike Pixiu.

Although Tang Qing doesn't understand antiques, he understands that their value must be high.

"Where's the eldest grandma?"

"Still on the bed, grandma is dressing her."

Tang Qing walked into the room where the elder mother lived.

The eldest mother-in-law and Tang Qing's mother live in the same room for easy care.

"It's cold today, the elder mother-in-law should not get up, right?"

"The elder mother-in-law must get up, she said that she doesn't want to lie in bed on the first day of the new year."

Tang Qing's mother responded to Tang Qing while dressing the elder mother-in-law.

Tang Qing walked up to the elder mother-in-law, and asked her loudly in her ear:
"Do you want to visit the South Bridge?"

"Ok!"

Grandma nodded.

"That's good, you get up first, drink sugar tea and have breakfast, and when the sun comes out, we will accompany you to the South Bridge."

"Thank you!"

"Thank you, but Xiaoqiang can't take it. You should give it to her when she comes to see you."

Tang Qing stuffed the jade pendant into Grandma Chang's hand.

The eldest mother-in-law held the jade pendant tightly with only one skin left, and asked Tang Qing:

"Will she come to see me?"  …

"meeting!"

"Then I'll wait for her."

The elder mother-in-law's muddy eyes shed muddy tears.

"Tang Qing, come out for me!"

Tang Qing's father's voice rang out in the small courtyard.

Tang Qing heard that his father's voice was full of anger, and hurried to his mother and said softly:

"I'll dress the eldest grandma, you go and extinguish his fire."

"You, teased your dad on New Year's Day."

Tang Qing's mother walked out of the room, came to Daodi, and saw her husband with his hands on his hips, looking very angry.

Eunuch Tang Qing and Carpenter Wang stood under the eaves of the main house, trying to persuade them but dared not go forward.

Wang Xinjie and Xiaoqiang hid behind the kitchen door, and looked up and down with their heads up and down.

"Father Qing, did you come down from Lushan Park so quickly? Has the statue of the deer been destroyed?"

"Who dares to destroy the deer statue?"

"Then why are you angry? Come here and help me take out my breakfast. The elder mother-in-law has woken up."

"Oh."

Tang Qing's father put down his hands on his waist and walked to the kitchen.

Wang Xinjie and Xiaoqiang hurriedly picked up the rice dumplings and steamed buns and walked out of the kitchen.

In addition to drinking sugar tea on the first day of the first lunar month, Yancheng people usually have brown sugar dumplings and brown sugar steamed buns as the staple food for breakfast, implying that the new year will be prosperous and sweet.

At the dining table, Tang Qing grabbed a brown sugar steamed bun and approached Wang Xinjie, and said softly:
"Is my mother amazing? A few spit stars can easily suppress my father's raging fire."

"Master Jiujin, when Grandma Tang mentioned the statue of the deer, Grandpa Tang understood immediately, right?"

"Of course, always be grateful and avoid unreasonable anger. My grandfather often taught us this way."

"Eunuch Tang is really a great folk philosopher!"

Near noon, Tang Qing, Wang Xinjie, and Xiaoqiang pushed the eldest mother-in-law out of the courtyard to Nanqiaotou.

Along the way, the elder mother-in-law kept murmuring:
"Xiao Li, I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for you..."

Tang Qing felt that there must be hidden secrets in it, unusual hidden secrets.
