Chapter 789 The Rabbit in the Rubber Boots and the Pheasant in the Sacrificial Stove (3/4)
ps: Please give me a vote... Snowflakes are falling, the New Year is finally here, I open the door in the morning, and the whole world is covered in silver. White has become the main theme between the whole sky and earth, the snowflakes have stopped, and the surroundings are quiet.
Li Feng pushed up the door curtain, and there was nearly a finger's worth of snow accumulated in the yard again. This was cleaned yesterday afternoon, and it snowed a lot overnight. Two nights and one day, at least a foot of snow fell, and the temperature dropped by five or six degrees.
Yesterday's forecast made Li Feng feel a big stone hanging in his heart these days.
Yesterday afternoon, Li Xiaoman called herself. Five thousand anti-skid chains had arrived. These anti-skid chains cost more than half of Li Feng's current worth. This was because Li Feng found an acquaintance at the manufacturer and only paid a 30% deposit. Even so,
Li Feng found that he had no money in his hand. These things were really not cheap. However, according to the weather forecast last night, Li Feng was relieved that there would be heavy snow in the next few days. As long as the heavy snow does not stop, the sales of this anti-skid chain will not be a problem.
Li Feng was quite happy and hummed a little tune. If the business was good this time, he might have been able to collect the money for his house a year ago. How could Li Feng not be happy? He casually picked up the rubber boots he put outside.
"No, why is it so heavy?" Before Li Feng could figure it out, he saw a gray shadow quickly come out, and the fat boy who was sleeping in the kennel rushed out. "Hare?" Li Feng couldn't believe it, how could a hare be harried?
They all got into their rubber boots. Under Li Feng's roof, there was a shed in this area, so the snow couldn't be swept in. This wild rabbit may have been hiding from the snow, and Fatty didn't even notice it. This guy must have had a heavy snowstorm last night. Li Feng checked
After removing the remaining rubber boots, there was actually a small wild rabbit sleeping beautifully in the baby's little fur boots.
Li Feng was very happy when he looked at it. This one was definitely not his. There was no such half-sized wild rabbit in his home. The sixteen little rabbits in Li Feng's family were not as big as the one in front of him. Someone must have come running in. Li Feng saw the little guy sleeping.
It was so beautiful that it didn't move. If it was left to sleep, I wouldn't be able to finish the hare. Not to mention that this little guy is so big and doesn't have even two ounces of meat.
Li Feng put on his rubber boots and launched the four-wheeled motorcycle. It was just right to ride the four-wheeled motorcycle at this time. As for the off-road vehicle, it was not impossible for Li Feng to drive it, but the road was too slippery and he didn't wear anti-skid chains. It was better to ride on the four-wheeled vehicle.
It is safer to ride a motorcycle slowly. Put on your coat and a set of winter motorcycle travel equipment, and get everything ready. Li Feng suddenly set off on the bike. I have a lot of things to buy today, Lao Zaoye. I must buy everything, and there are firecrackers.
I brought incense, fireworks, and yellow paper to visit the grave in the afternoon. Li Feng had a basket tied to the back of his four-wheeled motorcycle. The snow on the road had solidified a layer of ice due to the traffic coming and going. Li Feng drove very slowly, and it took him more than 20 years.
We arrived in the town just a few minutes ago. Although it was snowing heavily and the road out of the mountain was inconvenient, the young people did not dare to neglect. Li Feng thought he had arrived very early, but who knew that many people were earlier than him. The whole street stalls
It has been put out. Every house on the street is clearing away the snow.
"Uncle Six, why did you get up so early today?" Li Feng parked the car. There were many people on the street and it was difficult to drive, so it was better to park here. "Tingting, why haven't you gone back these days?" Li Feng looked inside.
Tingting asked casually. "This girl surfs the Internet every day. Not to mention going back to the village, she doesn't go downstairs without shouting a few times during dinner." Li Fuliang really had no choice in front of this daughter. Didn't Li Can mess with the computer?
Internet cables are cheap. Li Tingting chats with her classmates every day. She also plays small games when she has nothing to do.
"Dad, where can I be? Brother Xiaobao, you are so early. Where is my brother? Didn't he come back yesterday?" Li Tingting thought Li Can and Li Feng came back together.
"Your brother is definitely not up yet, Xiaobao. You have something to do, and you can rest assured that I will leave the car here." Uncle Liu hung up the clothes and started to move the wooden boards to set them up, and moved boxes of rubber boots.
Come out. Li Feng carried the basket without interrupting other people's busy work. Today there are many firecrackers. Please ask the old stove master. There are many yellow paper pins at home. There is food and drink. Li Feng goes straight to the grocery store. There is no specific store for fireworks and firecrackers.
, Gao Xiaosong said last time that he would solve this matter. Not knowing what happened, Li Feng walked into the store and felt a little stupid looking at the somewhat empty store.
"Boss, we don't sell fireworks here anymore?" Li Feng only saw some God of Wealth Gods, Old Stove Gods, some New Year paintings and the like, as well as money and yellow paper, but the firecrackers and fireworks were all gone.
"We won't sell them anymore. We won't let them sell them. Isn't it true that there is a shop selling fireworks and firecrackers next to the town government building? The fireworks and firecrackers from five or six stores on the street have been confiscated. Those who pass the test will be given back their money. No.
If it passes the test, it will be destroyed directly." The boss said weakly. He probably won't be able to celebrate the Spring Festival this year. Li Feng thinks this is good, at least it is safer. Gao Xiaosong is a very vigorous and resolute person.
Li Feng smiled and shook his head and walked out of the grocery store. He went to buy firecrackers first, otherwise there would be too many people and it would be troublesome. Li Feng came to the store and looked at the sign, which pointed out the fireworks and firecrackers specialization, as well as the tobacco specialization. Li Feng arrived
In the store, I looked a lot more comfortable than before.
"Here you go, why don't you come up with something?" Li Feng walked back and forth. There were no customers in the store yet, and a middle-aged man in his forties was welcoming him warmly.
"One set is not enough. Today is the first year of my daughter's and my son's first year. You can prepare some fireworks and the like." Li Feng chuckled. The layout here is really good, well-organized, and much safer than the messy grocery stores in the past.
"Congratulations, congratulations, you have both a son and a daughter. This is not a small matter, and you can't take it lightly." The middle-aged man said and Li Feng nodded. This is not the first year that he can't say anything casually during the Chinese New Year at home. The child is already five years old.
This is the first time I’m celebrating Chinese New Year at home. As a father, I owe you too much.
"You can do it, you're not afraid of spending money." Li Feng really didn't care about the small amount of money. The middle-aged man happily made Li Feng a cup of tea. He was a big customer. There were a lot of firecrackers and fireworks. He finally asked
Did Li Feng invite the Stove Lord to give him a pair? This man is very good at doing business, but when he paid, Li Feng secretly exclaimed, "It's more than four hundred." After paying, Li Feng was a little embarrassed. How can he do it by himself?
There are still many things to buy.
"Boss, is it okay to leave these with you first?" "No problem, don't worry, there will be no problem at all. You bought the vegetables, please come and get them." The middle-aged man agreed, this is not the Spring Festival, ten
The five people might still buy it. Wouldn't I be stupid if I didn't keep such a big customer?
Although Li Feng spent a lot of money, he was in a good mood. He bought a lot of things needed for the New Year with a basket, and this time it was another basket. There was no way, Li Feng bought a tricycle, which usually cost five yuan, but today it actually cost
I paid ten yuan. People said it was good, but the snow was too heavy, so I finally agreed on eight yuan. Li Feng went back and rode a four-wheeled motorcycle to load his own bamboo basket, followed by a tricycle loaded with firecrackers, and the fireworks followed.
Along the way, I met many people riding motorcycles and wrestling. Many people looked at Li Feng's four-wheeled motorcycle and were very envious. Lin Ying bought Li Feng's four-wheeled motorcycle. It has a big frame, enough weight, and is very stable.
, but the price is relatively high. When I returned home at around 20 minutes, a group of children ran out after hearing the sound of motorcycles.
"Dad, you are back. Go in and take a look. There is a pheasant in the pot hole. It was not fed outside." As soon as Li Baobao came out, he pulled Li Feng and said that he discovered it.
"Well, when Mengmeng saw that it was so big, Grandpa Zhang said he could cook a pot of vegetables for us to eat at noon." Mengmeng gestured, and Li Feng sounded confused. However, the tricycle was still waiting, and Li Feng was now
Didn't ask in detail.
"Okay, daddy knows, help daddy move things quickly, uncle is already impatient." Li Feng called a few little girls to help, Xiaoqing came out, and Xiaoqing's brother and sister-in-law came out to help, which made Li Feng very unhappy.
Good riddance. "Really, if there are any guests to help me, please sit down quickly and drink tea. Drink tea. You're welcome."
Li Feng met Mengmeng's parents last time. They didn't stay too long and went back together. However, Mengmeng didn't go back. The little girl said that she wanted to stay and teach sister Lingdang how to play the piano. In fact, Mengmeng's piano skills are better than the baby's.
Not much better, the two little girls are only half as good as each other.
"Don't be naughty and cause trouble, uncle still has a lot of things to do." Mengmeng's mother told her daughter a few words, and said hello to Mengmeng's father and Li Feng before going back. They had come to see Li Feng's parents, but they were taking care of the elderly.
Young Master, why can't you not take a look? Yesterday, Xiaoqing's mother came over specially, and today her brother and sister-in-law came over.
Li Feng sent him out of the yard and returned home. He then started to put some yellow paper and firecrackers used for visiting graves in the afternoon into snakeskin bags and put them under the eaves. During the Chinese New Year, firecrackers were set off, and the fireworks were moved into the house and set up. This year's firecrackers were used.
Candles need to be burned and incense must be burned. Please bring out the portrait of the Stove God. In my old house, there is a shrine of the Stove God carved with wooden boards. It has been there for many years. Today, the main thing is to put up the portrait in the old yard.
That’s it.
The sacrifices there are much more complicated. Li Feng's family has filled in the population this year, and these major events must be reported to God. Although some people say these are superstitious, the old people believe it, and even Grandpa and Grandma Qizaki treat this matter with caution.
Li Feng's father Li Shan started to arrange the arrangements early in the morning. Now Xiao Qing's brother and sister-in-law came over and only his mother was here to greet the guests.
"Mom, how are dad's preparations going?" Li Feng will sort out the candles, incense and firecrackers in a while. If there are any other bad things, the family didn't rush to the street to buy them back. It's still early.
"Your father is looking for the second master this time. He has packed his things and will be there in a while. I'm going to talk to the two children." Li Feng felt relieved when he heard that the second master was coming. These old rules will always apply to him.
Dad doesn’t know everything. As for whether he has seen it or actually said it, he really doesn’t know clearly. (To be continued) rq!~!
