"Sister, let me help you light the fire." Fangyuan said.

"No, you go wash your hands! You can eat soon."

"Oh! Okay then!"

Fangyuan took out the basin, poured some cold water first, then added some hot water, and washed his hands.

Just at this time, the second sister brought the last dish.

The meal tonight is very rich, including a fish, a stewed chicken, a braised pork, and a scrambled egg.

In addition to these, there is also a pimple soup, which is also Fangyuan's favorite.

The staple food is still dumplings, but I haven’t ordered them yet. At least I have to finish eating them first before ordering the dumplings!

"Second sister, you go call the old party secretary, and I'll set off the firecrackers."

"Yes!" The second sister nodded and went out.

Fangyuan took out a thousand-ring firecracker from the house, went outside, opened the firecracker, and spread it on the ground.

I took out the match and lit it, and the crackling sound started. From morning till now, three firecrackers in various sizes have been set off.

In the entire Zhaojiayu, no one except Fangyuan fired cannons, even if it was New Year's Eve.

This is not to say that people don’t want to shoot guns, but that buying guns requires money. With this money, it’s not a good idea to buy something.

As the saying goes, if you don't talk about the cannon after it goes off, it will be over after you fire it off. There is no use except listening to the sound.

So as soon as the thousands of firecrackers in the radius were set off, all the children of Zhao Jiayu ran out.

Of course these children came out to pick up firecrackers. Unfortunately, the quality of firecrackers at this time was so good that almost none of them failed to go off.

So after the firecrackers finished going off, a group of children searched among the piles of cannon paper for a long time, but no one was found.

Seeing this, Fangyuan turned around and went into the house, then took out several small hanging whips and opened them in front of these children.

After taking it apart, Fangyuan called the children in front of him and counted them, there were seventeen children in total.

Of course, this does not mean that Zhao Jiayu only has seventeen children. This refers to the children. The ones who are a little older may be sensible! They have not come over.

"Come on, come on, twenty for each person."

Hearing what Fangyuan said, these children immediately surrounded Fangyuan.

"Don't be crowded, there is something for everyone."

After finishing speaking, Fangyuan counted out twenty firecrackers and handed them to a child and said: "Those who have received them will wait aside. You cannot receive more. I will get you some candies later."

Seventeen children, three hundred and forty cannons, and Fangyuan dismantled four of them, which was four hundred. Fangyuan took the remaining cannons into the house, and then came out with an enamel basin.

The enamel basin contains peanuts and melon seeds and sugar cubes. Peanuts and melon seeds are easy to say. Each person can grab two handfuls, but the sugar cubes must be given according to the quantity.

Fangyuan's hands are very big, and he can grab a lot of them. Most of these children's clothes don't have pockets, and even if they have pockets, they can't fit in them.

So Fangyuan asked these children to hold up the clothes and then put them on.

A handful of peanuts, a handful of melon seeds, and ten candies for each child. This made these children extremely happy, including the little girl, the granddaughter of the old branch secretary.

"Okay, let's all go home!" After the distribution, Fangyuan said to these children.

When they heard Fangyuan telling them to go back, the children quickly ran home.

"Girl, wait a minute." Just as the little girl was about to go back, Fang Yuan called her.

"Uncle." The little girl came over and called out.

"Come in with me." Fang Yuan took the little girl's hand and pulled her into the house.

"Put the things in the basin, and you can take the basin back later." Fangyuan handed the basin filled with peanuts, melon seeds and candies to the little girl.

I just gave a lot to those children, but there is still half of the pot left in the pot. Of course, there is still a small half of the pot left, but this is already a lot.

"Uncle, this is too much, I can't have it." The little girl shook her head.

"Take it, uncle gave this to you, you must hold it."

"Oh!" The little girl lowered her head and took the enamel basin.

"That's right. Come on, put the basin aside and eat first." Fang Yuan said to the little girl.

"Uncle, I can't eat at your house." The little girl shook her head quickly.

"Why?"

"My grandpa said this is not good."

Hearing what the little girl said, Fangyuan said: "Your grandpa is right! This is not good, but what your grandpa said is to go to other people's houses. It's okay to come to my uncle's house for dinner, and your grandpa will come over soon."

Fangyuan's words made the little girl's eyes light up and she asked: "Uncle, will my grandpa really come?"

"Of course, uncle never lied to you."

"Yeah!" The little girl glanced at the food on the table as she nodded, her mouth watering. She must have never eaten such a meal in her entire life!

"Here, let's eat a chicken leg first." Fangyuan took out a chicken drumstick from the stewed chicken and handed it to the little girl.

"Uncle, you haven't eaten yet!" The little girl didn't answer, but looked at Fang Yuan and said.

"Uncle will eat later, you eat first."

The little girl shook her head and said, "If uncle doesn't eat, I can't eat either."

Fangyuan knew that the little girl might have her own rules in her heart, so she didn't force herself. She put the chicken legs down and said, "Okay, let's eat together later."

"Um!"

At this time, the second sister came in dragging the old party secretary.

"You kid, you can just eat. Why did you bring me here?" The old party secretary came in and was still talking to the second sister.

"Old party secretary, I asked my second sister to call you, just to have a drink with you, otherwise it would be boring for me to drink alone."

Fangyuan said as he opened a bottle of Liangdu Laojiao.

Seeing the wine opened by Fangyuan, the old party secretary said: "This is good wine!"

"Old party secretary, since I know it's good wine, let's drink some."

"Drink some."

If it was just eating, the old party secretary might be modest, but drinking, he would not be modest.

Besides, the wine provided by Fangyuan is really good, at least in the local area.

Fangyuan took two cups, filled them two full cups, placed one cup in front of the old branch secretary, and then gave himself another cup.

"Come here, old branch secretary, and I'll pay you a compliment."

"Try it briefly!" the old branch secretary said as he picked it up.

"As you wish."

To be honest, it was also the first time for Fangyuan to drink this wine, so he had a small taste first.

Not to mention, this wine is not bad. Although it cannot compare with Maotai, Wuliangye and Xinghuacun, it still tastes good.

"Come and eat food."

"good."

Fangyuan put a piece of meat into his mouth and said to the second sister: "Sister, you and the little girl can eat it! Don't worry about us, let's have some wine."

"Well! You drink! Let's eat."

"good."

The little girl was no longer polite at this time, because her grandfather and Fangyuan had already moved their chopsticks, so she could eat.

The little girl held a chicken leg and gnawed it with a happy smile on her face.

"Old party secretary, let me pay you one more tribute and thank you for taking care of my second sister for so long."

"Don't, don't say that. To be honest, I really haven't taken care of your second sister very much, even for these children who came to the mountains and countryside."

Of course Fangyuan knew that. This didn't mean that the old party secretary didn't want to take care of him, but that he was powerless and because of his relationship with the working group.

Of course, even if there is no working group, he cannot take care of them. If it is just one or two people, there may be so many people, he cannot take care of them at all.

"Old party secretary, don't say that. Since my second sister has come to your village, she will take care of you."

After speaking, Fangyuan took a sip of the wine in the glass.

The old branch secretary also quickly took a sip, just like this, you didn't eat much food, but you didn't drink less wine.

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, the two of them had almost finished drinking and eating, especially the little girl, but she didn't eat less.

Of course, because her stomach is relatively short of oil and water, when Fang Shuli picks up vegetables for her, she tries to pick something lighter.

Because there were a lot of dishes, and there were only four people to eat, after finishing the meal, there was still more than half of it left, so Fang Yuan winked at the second sister.

The second sister quickly poured the vegetables into a basin, and there was also half a basin of dumplings, ready to be served to the old party secretary's family.

At this time, Fangyuan took out a red envelope and handed it to the little girl.
