Xiao Budian wearing a tiger hat struggled to pull his eyes out of a cannon booth and trotted all the way to Fireworks Alley.
“Knock Knock~” IDX=”3″> After a blaze of incense kung fu, in the fireworks alley, Xiao Budian gently knocked on the courtyard door of a house.
“Ah Fei, come in.”
a majestic voice sounded in the courtyard.
“crunch~”
“7”> Xiao Budian slowly pushed open the courtyard door and walked in.
……
in the main house.
A man dressed in sheepskin and a beard, about the age of Mo Yan, gathered a dozen letters and put them in his baggage.
After handing over the burden to Xiao Budian, the man said while untying the money bag around his waist: “Ah Fei, a total of nineteen letters, this is nineteen copper plates, take it, don’t lose it.” ”
Xiao Budian stretched out his hands, took nineteen copper plates, carefully stuffed them into his waist purse one by one.
“Uncle Guo, rest assured, if you are there, you will believe.”
man rolled his eyes and said, “I mean the copper plate.” If something happens to your boy, your mother will not be allowed to pick me up and cramp? ”
“Kid, don’t you always have a smiling face on weekdays?” Today’s pulls are longer than the donkey of the Niu Maran family! ”
Xiaobu sighed.
“Uncle Guo, my mother always coughs non-stop these days, drinks a few doses, and is not good.”
“I go to the sacred wood forest every day to bow down to the gods, but unfortunately it is useless.”
man pulled out a brass dry cigarette stick inserted in his waist, lit it, took two puffs, and spit out choking smoke.
“Kid, it’s useless because you’re dishonest.”
Xiao Bu blinked his big eyes, “Uncle Guo, I think I’m very sincere, quite sincere.” ”
“Honest fart.”
two plumes of smoke erupted from the man’s nostrils, saying, “As the old saying goes, there are gods when you raise your head.” < p idx="24"> “What the man of the world has said and done, the gods of heaven, see clearly.”
“Boy, don’t hide from you, uncle, I have an ancient method to make it knock on the gods, and it is very effective.”
Xiaobu nodded like a copper bell, “Please uncle teach me!” ”
……
Wherever there are people, there are rich and poor.

Loess courtyard that squints when the wind blows, and there are broken tile houses that are still breathing.
and a few alleys located on the northeastern boundary represent the wealth of the town.
deep house compound, green bricks and green tiles.
crisscrossed, cobbled roadways, not even a single pile of can be found.
simply not too clean.
If it is not for the delivery of letters, even if you live in a small town for a lifetime, it will be difficult to set foot in this place.
“arrived~” IDX=”39″> At this moment, Xiao Budian was standing in front of the gate of a mansion in Wolong Lane.
gilt plaque hanging high on the mansion, with the word ‘Zhao Mansion’ written on it.
two majestic stone lions stand at the gate.
Xiao Bu stepped forward and knocked lightly.
“Knock Knock~” IDX=”44″> After a while, the vermilion gate creaked and opened a crack.
The face of an expressionless youth, looking down condescendingly at Xiao Budian.
his expression was cold, his voice was not mixed with the slightest emotion, and said: “What happened?” ”
“There is a letter from Zhaofu.”
Xiao Budian stretched out his hands and handed the envelope over.
young man leaned out a calloused hand from behind the gate and gently pinched the corner of the envelope.

The younger generation of the town knows that in the depths of Wuyi Lane, there are orphans and widows.
the woman was rumored to be covered in flesh and blood and rotting and covered with maggots.

“Son, what did you buy?”
woman smiles gently.
“Mom, you’re so beautiful today!”

“Niang is more beautiful today than yesterday, and tomorrow is more beautiful than today.”
“The beauty of the mother, more every day.”
woman’s eyes, bent into two crescents in an instant.
“My son’s small mouth is so sweet, and he will definitely be liked by girls in the future.”
Xiao Budian immediately blushed shyly.
“Mother, today I earned nineteen copper coins from Uncle Guo.”
“I bought the door god, spring coupling, and lantern in advance, but I didn’t buy window flowers.”
“The window flowers on the market are not as good as those cut out by the mother.”
Xiao Bu Dian said and showed it.
“son.”
“Mom, what?”
“My mother has bitter in her mouth and wants to eat sugar gourd.”
“Mom, you wait, I’ll go buy it for you.”
“Buy two strings, let’s each string one string.”
“Got it.”
……
half an hour later.
Xiaobu is back.
“Mother, Grandpa Liu is sick in bed, and he will have to wait until next year to eat sugar gourd.”
“But I bought a few pieces of cane sugar.”
Xiaobu opened the oil paper, and there were several boxy, yellow cane sugar lying inside.

“Son, open your mouth.”

The woman put the cane sugar block into her son’s mouth, looked at the little joyful look,
then smiled and pinched the second piece and sent it to her own mouth.
“Mom, sweet?”
“Well, it’s sweet.”
“Mom, this Chinese New Year’s Eve, I want to eat pork and green onion stuffed dumplings.”
“No problem, when the time comes, you roll the skin, and the mother will wrap it.”
“Mom, it looks like it’s going to snow.”
“Son, go outside for my mother to see the snow.”

woman whispered: “Son, after your mother leaves, you must listen to your sister Cui’er, listen to your master’s words.” ”
“In this life, my mother only allows you to owe you the kindness of Sister Cui’er and your master.”
“Although there is only corn and rice, you must eat enough for two meals a day.”
“Remember to take a bath once in three days and wash yourself clean.”
“Keep the habit of soaking your feet every day, because then the body will be warm and comfortable.”
“Son, ten to twenty years old cotton jacket cotton pants, and new shoes, my mother has handed over to you Cui’er.”
“Son, no matter how busy you are, don’t forget that you should eat hot and drink more water.”
“Son, mother likes peach blossoms.”
“Every year when the grass grows and the warblers fly, don’t forget to pick a peach blossom and put it on your mother’s grave.”
look at the tiger head hat, stretching out his little hand, and then the snowflake.
the woman’s bright eyes gradually dimmed.
“How can there be such kind and lovely children in this world.” How could it be my son of Nan Jinping. ”
“Son, my mother will turn into a star that is not so bright and not so dark, and in heaven, will always look at you.”
“Son, mother is gone~”
