Nongmen sisters and brothers are not simple

Chapter 139 New Years
It's more than half a child, the first day of the new year.

Firecrackers were ignited in the backyard of Xie's family, and they crackled, sounding the first sound of opening the door of wealth on the first day of the new year.

After setting off the firecrackers, the Xie family siblings said auspicious New Year greetings to Mrs. Zhang, his uncle, and Mrs. Qian. After receiving the red envelope from Mrs. Zhang, they finished the night watch and went back to their respective houses to sleep.

Because eating dumplings is not popular in the south, what is fancy is the first ring to open the door of wealth. After the first ring to open the door of wealth is sounded, the vigil will be completed.

On the second day, when the sky was just dawn, the sound of firecrackers sounded everywhere in Shangou Village. This was a new round of worship for the villagers, praying for the blessings of the Bodhisattva.

The siblings of the Xie family got up early, each put on new clothes, washed up, and prepared to go door-to-door to the villagers to pay New Year's greetings, except for Xie Fanxing, who needed to stay at home to entertain people who came to their house for New Year's greetings.

This is a habit of the villagers in Shangou Village. Every New Year, the villagers will go to each house to pay New Year's greetings. After all, their village is just these dozens of families who come and go. Get in touch.

Taking advantage of the New Year's greetings, it is not a good time to connect with each other.

"Sister, we are ready, we should go." After washing up, Fan Wen and Fan Yu came to Xie Fanxing's house, Fan Yu saw Sister Fanyue and they all washed up, and when their siblings went to the villager's house to celebrate the New Year together, Fan Yu smiled and said to her elder sister.

Her eldest sister told herself yesterday that she would lead the team when she went to the villagers' house to pay New Year's greetings today.

"Well! Go early and go back early. I will remember what I told you yesterday."

"Eldest sister, I've kept this in mind. For the villagers who have a good relationship with us, we will sit a little longer when we go to their house to pay New Year's greetings. For the villagers who are not related to us, let's just say a few words and leave." Fan Wen took the lead.

"Yes, that's right, you go!" After Xie Fanxing waited for Fanyu and the others to leave, she got busy herself, and she took out a stack of plates and a large disc from the kitchen.

She put pickled fruits, hot strips, dried meat, hot and sour radishes and other things into the plate. In the big round plate, filled with hanging melon seeds, golden melon seeds and frozen rice sugar, and then put some vine pears and stone persimmons, and put them on the plate. On the table in the main room, it is ready to be used to entertain people who come to pay New Year's greetings.

Xie Fanxing had just prepared these things. Wan Xiaojun, Wan Xiaohua, Wu Chen, Lu Linyi, and Wu Chen's younger sister Wu Xin seemed to have made an appointment.Come to their house to pay New Year's greetings.

As soon as Wan Xiaojun heard that Fanyang and the others had just left, they went to visit other villagers’ homes for New Year’s greetings. The five of them said something auspicious and pleasing to Xie Fanxing, and they hurried away, as if they wanted to chase Fanyang and the others and join them Go to the villager's house to pay New Year's greetings.

The sky gradually brightened, and many villagers came to their house to pay New Year's greetings. Xie Fanxing smiled and entertained the people to eat fruit, make tea and chat, and there were noises from the children.

The New Year's fruit she made was so delicious that the little boy had to take it away in his pocket after eating it, and Xie Fanxing didn't say anything about the big Chinese New Year's fruit.

And she didn't know how many New Year's fruits she brought back and forth in and out of the warehouse. Fortunately, she prepared a lot of New Year's fruits. , and the thief went to the empty building, and only two or three of the ten were left.

Xie Fanxing was exhausted from the busy work this early in the morning.

It has been busy until more than half of the time, and no villagers have come to their house to pay New Year's greetings.

Xie Fanxing slumped on the chair all of a sudden, pinching the center of his brows, he would have left Fanyue at home to greet those who came to pay New Year's greetings, so he can share some of the burden for himself.

"Sister, we're back." Fan Wenren's cheerful voice came in first.

"Sister, what's the matter with you, you're too tired." Xie Fanchen saw that her elder sister's complexion was slightly pale, and she stepped forward to hold her elder sister's wrist, feeling her pulse and asked.

"It's not possible to be tired of entertaining people who come to pay New Year's greetings during the Chinese New Year. There are waves of people coming, and there are some noisy children, and only the eldest sister greets you. It must be tiring." Fan Yu helped to clean up the table. residue, she said.

"I knew I would stay at home to help my eldest sister." Fanyue suddenly felt sorry for her elder sister.

Her eldest sister is really good, not only will put them in their place, but also make arrangements for them, and they don't need to worry about the things in life, they are all handled by the eldest sister, impartial.

"Sister, we are preparing so many New Year's fruits, why are there only so many left?" Fan Yang went into the warehouse with an empty plate, intending to pack the fruits and wait for someone to come to pay New Year's greetings. He just opened it and saw that so many New Year's Eve fruits were missing. Fruit, he asked in surprise.

"How much is left?" Fan Yue asked.

"Only two or three out of ten are left." Xie Fanyang said a little depressed.

It feels like his elder sister has worked so hard to eat it, as if it has been ruined, and there is not much left.

"This must be a child from our village who came to pay New Year's greetings. Seeing that the fruit made by the elder sister is delicious, after eating it, he put it in his pocket and took it home to eat." Fan Yu said affirmatively.

When she and Fanwen were younger, they did the same thing. When they came across something they liked, they had to put it in their pockets and take it home to eat. This was called eating and taking.

Her mother taught her and Fanwen a few times, but she and Fanwen didn't listen. It was her mother who beat her and Fanwen a few times, and they became honest. When they go to other people's houses to eat, they can't fight, and they can't pretend take it home.

"It's okay, the first wave of people who came to our house to celebrate the New Year has passed, and there are still some people who will come to pay New Year's greetings. These New Year's fruits are enough for us to entertain guests. You are back, then I will make breakfast first."

"Sister, you are tired, you should rest! I left a lot of leftovers yesterday, I will heat them up, and then I will make some pickles, steamed bacon, sausages, let's have a quick breakfast. "Fan Yue held down her elder sister and asked her to sit down, and she and Fan Yu went to work in the kitchen.

.

Time passed slowly, and soon the fifteenth day of the first lunar month passed.

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the taste of the year will fade away.

Those who should work should work, those who should repair farm tools should repair farm tools, and those who should go to the town to find work have gone to the town to find work.

As for their old Xie family, Xie Fanxing gave her aunt a seven-day vacation and asked them to come to work on the seventh day of the lunar new year.

Now, they are busy in full swing, and the work is divided into several waves.

Mrs. Zhang pulled the bullock cart and stepped on the mud. Her aunt and aunt made brick embryos. Her uncle fired bricks.

Last year, it was half-enclosed. After the next year, her uncle and uncle built the fence together, and finally completed the fence yesterday.

As for the blue bricks, they fired and stored more than 20 green bricks, and they piled up the backyard of his uncle's house so densely that they couldn't put them down.

Don't look at so many green bricks, in fact, they will be used up after a few uses.

Because they not only need to build houses this year, but also build factories and sell bricks. Naturally, the more green bricks there are, the better.
