Ordinary people's rice bowl

Chapter 279 Day Spring Morning
The TV Spring Festival Gala attracts people's nerves. People in Xiaowangzhuang Village fall asleep. The time has passed. Because it is the first day of the new year, the ugly time has just passed and the Yin time has just arrived. Basin Symphony.

Ma Hanbang's daughter-in-law is from the mountains. According to her, according to the local customs, if you want to make a lot of money for a year, you must eat dumplings early on the first day of the Lunar New Year. Before it rises, you have to go to the village to call the pig. This pig has a lot of background and represents the meaning of "rich pig".According to his wife's wishes, Ma Hanbang cooked a pot of dumplings amidst the sound of firecrackers in the middle of the night. He filled more than half a bowl of dumplings and placed them in the middle of the Eight Immortals table in the main room, calling it "respecting the gods". A small half bowl, everyone ate some. Looking at the remaining bowl of dumplings on the edge of the ground pot, Ma Hanbang had a victorious smile on his face, and the remaining dumplings represented "surplus every year".

After tidying up the dishes and chopsticks, Ma Hanbang was woken up by the alarm clock next to his pillow, and stood up quickly from the bed. I didn't take off any clothes at all before, and went to sleep with my clothes on. Now, naturally, it was much faster than usual, and then the "jingling" kitchen "symphony" sounded in front of the stove.In fact, Ma Hanbang's meal is still very simple, just like before going to bed, boiled dumplings.

Ma Hanbang's daughter-in-law didn't say anything, she moved to the east of the village like a flash, and the words that her family kept telling her when she went back to her mother's house before the festival kept flashing in her mind: "On the first day of the new year, you must get up early to call the pigs. , whoever wakes up first will be the first to usher in 'wealth energy'!"

Before Ma Hanbang's daughter-in-law came back, the water in the pot boiled, and when the dumplings were about to be put into the pot, they called the early-rising children in the yard to light the [-]-headed firecrackers prepared last night. The sound is like a thunderbolt in the silence, and it immediately makes the village lively. Needless to say, the sound of "jingle" in the kitchen, especially the continuous follow-up sound of firecrackers, even surpassed the movement at midnight. I don't know whose baby was caught. The sound of firecrackers woke me up, and I kept crying "Wow!" I don't know which dog was hit by the popped firecrackers and barked "Aww", let alone whose children ran to the street to let go. With a vigorous two-pedal kick, there was a muffled thunder on the ground, and it went straight to the sky, and then a "boom" exploded in the air, not only shaking Xiaowangzhuang Village, but also the village of Zhouzhuan.

When Ma Hanbang's daughter-in-law came back, the dumplings at home were also cooked.Ma Hanbang watched the whole family eat the first dumplings in the village, and the joy in his heart naturally showed on his face. He smiled like a sunflower seeing the sun, blooming with joy.

Just after Yin time, people in the village began to leave their homes.

The first day of the first month of the lunar calendar is the most leisurely day for rural people, and it is also the day with the most taboos. On this day, no matter how much work you have, you should put it aside and rest your hands.

On this day, you just go out and say "Happy New Year" to everyone you meet. No matter how many grievances and grievances there are between each other, on this day, all of them will be written off, because this is the beginning of the new year. , the past has become history, just like those blessings written in the Spring Festival couplets, "New Year, new people, new atmosphere, good year, good times and good spirit". There are holiday smiles hanging on the face, and everyone's heart is full of good wishes...
