Wang's little lady

Hongdou returned home with a somewhat depressed mood. Mrs. Xie, Ms. Zhang and A Mao Juhua were cutting cloth with a few children.

The year is coming to an end, so why not make more new clothes for the family? Especially in winter, you have to stuff it with thicker cotton to keep it warm.

"Sister, Sister Xiaoya. You are back." Brother Tuan saw the two coming back and ran over to greet them with a smile. Others also asked casually when they saw them:

"Dou, why did Mr. Xu ask you to come over? By the way, the Chinese New Year will be here in a few days. Would you like to have a family reunion dinner, sir?"

Mrs. Xie asked, her hands moving smoothly.

Hongdou looked at everyone who was beaming with joy. She didn't want to say the news she just learned from Mr. Xu, lest it destroy the tranquility.

Seeing that her granddaughter didn't speak for a long time, Mrs. Xie had to put down the things in her hands, looked at Hongdou and asked, "Did something happen?"

Anko shook her head slightly and approached with these smiles to help. But everyone rejected it.

Mrs. Zhang was a little funny: "You don't know how to sew, so don't make trouble. Mom is making white fungus soup in the kitchen. You and Xiaoya go have a bowl to warm yourself up."

"Then let's go, grandma, mother, let's make more clothes, and ask Aunt Qu and the others to make more clothes, so that each of us will have at least two new winter clothes."

After Hongdou said that, she took Xiaoya to the kitchen. Ms. Zhang agreed. They had planned to make more clothes for the Chinese New Year, and there was enough fabric anyway.

Only Mrs. Xie felt that something was wrong when she looked at Hongdou's appearance just now. When no one was paying attention, I looked for Hongdou to talk.

"Dou, why do you feel something is wrong when you go out? Tell me what happened."

"You two juniors already know it, so you can't hide it from me."

Hongdou swallowed the white fungus in her mouth and saw that everyone was outside, so she told Granny Xie the news that Mr. Xu informed them of their arrival:

"Grandma, there's a fight at the border. Didn't something happen to the Fang family, the general who was originally guarding the city?"

"Now the government still doesn't know who can take his place. I always feel a little uneasy. Our good days have just begun. If we really lose..."

If we are really defeated and the country cannot become a country, how can people like them have a good life?

Mrs. Xie's expression paused, and she couldn't hold on to the smile on her face. She spoke forcefully: "Hey, what did I think it was about? Isn't it just a war?"

"Whenever we don't fight, if the Fang family is gone, there will always be other generals around. That's what the emperor needs to worry about. Let's just live a good life."

I said that, and I wasn't worried that it was a lie, but I couldn't live without hearing about the war, right? They are far away from the border.

If they were worried every day, would the people nearby still be alive?

"Let me tell you, you bought so many things in the past few days. I thought it would take a long time for such a family to eat, and I told Juhua to buy more food when we go back."

"So you bought more and saved it on purpose?"

Mrs. Xie thought of her granddaughter's behavior a few days ago, and then she reacted.

"Isn't this just in case? It won't go bad if you buy more and save them." Hongdou explained. Buying more made her feel more at ease.

She also bought some for Grandpa Sun, not to mention Zhuangzi. Anyway, they are all daily needs, so there are not too many.

On New Year's Eve, the Xie family prepared several tables full of meals and called Mr. Xu, Dr. Sun, the Juhua family, and everyone in the village.

There must be someone on duty at Zhuangzi, so Hongdou asked the people from Zhuangzi to come to the town in two groups, some of them came for lunch and some of them came in the evening.

This way everyone can get together and it will be considered complete.

That night, while everyone was eating, it snowed heavily again. The white snow fell one after another, which made the children very happy.

He only ate a few bites of food in a hurry, and then ran out to make a fuss about building a snowman. During the Chinese New Year, every household will not take too much care of their children. As long as you don't make too much noise, just follow them and have fun.

There was the sound of firecrackers outside and the house was filled with joy. If nothing happened after that, this would have been the best year Hongdou had since arriving in Daqing.

It's a pity that God is not kind!

At midnight, most people in Shimen Town fell asleep. This night everyone had a rare good meal and wore new clothes.

Another good night's sleep will surely bode well for the coming year.

"Ah..." Hongdou suddenly woke up from the nightmare for some reason, and at the same time alerted Xiaoya who was sleeping in the same room with her.

Xiaoya stood up and patted Hongdou on the back to express comfort.

After Hongdou calmed down, she realized that she was just dreaming. Then she breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from her forehead. But after a while, Hongdou still noticed something was wrong.

"Xiaoya, did you hear anything?" Hongdou couldn't help but ask, she seemed to hear something and screamed.

Xiaoya listened carefully and couldn't help but nodded. There was indeed a sound.

"It sounds like Meihua and Ma are barking from the backyard. I'll go out and have a look." Hongdou was not sleepy now, so she just got up and checked, which would put her at ease.

Moreover, except for the moment when Meihua was uneasy when she was first bought back, she is usually very peaceful and rarely calls out. The same goes for the horses bought later.

Xiaoya also got up and went out to check with Hongdou. After all, it was late at night, so she had to be careful even at home.

In the backyard, it turned out that Meihua kept barking for some reason, and even the horses in the stables nearby also barked.

Hongdou thought they were hungry, but when she saw there was still some food in the trough.

"Meihua, you're up late at night, why are you barking?" Hongdou said, stroking the stubborn donkey's head as if to teach him a lesson.

But something was obviously wrong with Meihua tonight, and Anko's comfort was of no use. Not only that, but even the wild dogs and cats nearby began to bark uncontrollably.

Even in the middle of the night, there were actually a flock of birds flying in the sky. I wonder if these animals have made an agreement to cause trouble at the same time tonight.

Anko was a little angry at first, but suddenly something came to her mind.

She was a little flustered and immediately went to the wellhead to check. Sure enough, the well water was not only turbid, but was even bubbling and bubbling.

"It's broken. Xiaoya, hurry up and get everyone up. Something is going to happen now, immediately." After Hongdou said that, she took Xiaoya and ran into the house.

The Xie mother-in-law, Zhang family, Tuan Ge'er's children, Ah Mao and Ju Hua who are staying here tonight are forced to call out.

Xu Shi noticed Hong Dou's serious expression, and no one lost his temper. He just wondered why he had to wake people up in the middle of the night.

"Dou, why did you wake us up in the middle of the night? Is there something wrong?" Mrs. Xie asked as she put on her clothes in a daze.

Everyone knew that Hongdou was not a random person, but it was too late now.

Seeing everyone getting up and standing in the courtyard, Hongdou said in a panic:

"Grandma, mother, I suspect it's an earth dragon turning over."

"It's late at night, what kind of earthly dragon and heavenly dragon." Mrs. Xie said casually.

But after he repeated the word "earth dragon" again, his mind suddenly became clear.

She looked at Hongdou and shouted in horror: "What did you say, Earth Dragon turned over?"
