Ni Yinghong came suddenly and left hastily. She waved her sleeves and took away some of the milky white clouds before she came, leaving only a wisp of fragrant wind blooming alone in the empty and lonely room.
"well!"
Chu Heng, who was once again a widower, looked at the chair where the girl had sat and sighed quietly, then got up to set up a pot to boil water and prepare to eat dumplings.
"Gululu!"
The fire in the coal stove was burning very brightly, and soon the water in the pot began to boil. The rising water vapor was misty and graceful, resembling someone very much.
Seeing that the water was boiling, Chu Heng quickly poured the dumplings sent by Miss Ni into it. After the water in the pot boiled three times and cold water was added three times, he took out the cooked dumplings and put them on a plate and served them to the table.
Finally, I brought Xiaodie, poured some vinegar on it, peeled two garlic cloves, and finally took out a bottle of wine. All the preparations were completed.
Oh, and we have to set off firecrackers.
Chu Heng took out another cigarette, lit it, held it in his mouth, took a bunch of firecrackers from the warehouse, and hurried out of the house.
He didn't go too far, so he directly laid the firecrackers on the ground under the window, used the light to find the fuse, took out the cigarette from his mouth, lit it, and ran back.
"Hey!"
"Crackling..."
As soon as the firecrackers sounded, a group of children who had not slept yet jumped out of the darkness in all directions, staring intently at the crackling firecrackers on the ground.
After a while, the firecrackers were all burned out, and the children swarmed forward, looking for the unlit firecrackers.
The familiar scene instantly overlapped with a certain memory in Chu Heng's mind. He sighed and stood aside for a while, waiting for a cigarette to be finished before going back to the house to eat dumplings.
As the saying goes, dumplings are like wine, the more you drink, the better.
As the saying goes, these are not as delicious as dumplings, but they are fun... Yeah!
The dumplings sent by Miss Ni were actually not very tasty, with more vegetables and less meat, and even no oil stars could be seen. But when he thought that the dumplings were sent by the girl in the cold night, Chu Heng felt that they were particularly delicious.
A mouthful of dumplings and a sip of wine, he ate it with gusto.
After he had eaten and drank enough, Chu Heng simply cleared the table and quickly poured water to wash up. Around eleven o'clock, he had already got into bed and fell into a deep sleep.
Good night, Mahler...
The next day.
"Dangdangdang..."
When Chu Heng was having breakfast, he suddenly remembered the sound of gongs in the courtyard. He was stunned for a moment before he remembered that the courtyard had decided to hold a group visit on the first day of the new year this year. He also vaguely remembered that the group visit in the original plot seemed like
There is melon to eat!
He hurriedly ate the buns in his hand in three mouthfuls, gulped down the porridge in the bowl, and ran to the courtyard with his clothes on.
Food and melons are both worth it!
When Chu Heng came over, a lot of people had gathered in the middle courtyard. He stood and walked around, and soon found the best place to eat melon in a small corner. He quickly ran over and stood there, secretly poking at it.
A crowd arose.
It didn't take long for everyone in the courtyard to be basically gathered, and then three uncles appeared on the stage each holding a tea cup.
After the three old men sat down at the Eight Immortals table in the middle, the first uncle opened the ceremony as usual. He stood up with a smile and said loudly: "Today is the first day of the first day of the Lunar New Year. The second uncle and the third uncle have proposed.
I think this form of group worship is particularly good, as it can avoid all kinds of unpleasant things that happened during the Spring Festival in previous years."
"You are like in the past. Rich people could get some New Year's money for their children, but some really couldn't!"
"I think starting from today, we will form a system and have a group worship every year."
"The second uncle asked me to start first, so I will say a few words."
"Everyone in our hospital is happy, everyone is healthy, and every household is safe. I wish you all a happy New Year!"
Amidst the applause, the old man who finished his speech sat back down again.
Seeing this, the second uncle, who had been brewing for a long time, couldn't wait to get up and said a few words of Wen Zou Zou's New Year's greetings, which also won a burst of applause.
The third uncle came next. The old man pushed his eyes on the bridge of his nose, glared at Silly Zhu fiercely, and slowly stood up.
Chu Heng knew that the main show was about to begin, so he quickly put out the cigarette in his hand, held his breath and concentrated, tightened his abdomen and raised his buttocks, and eagerly waited to eat the melon.
After the third uncle said a few auspicious words, he immediately launched an attack on Shazhu and told everyone that the guy took Qin Huairu's three children to his house early in the morning and knelt down to ask for lucky money.
The old man has been careful for most of his life and has to break every penny into two flowers. Now he gives out three red envelopes in one breath. Do you think it costs his life?
As soon as the third uncle finished speaking, Xu Damao also cursed and talked about how he was forced to take away three yuan by three children this morning.
The reason why Silly Zhu did this was to take personal revenge. The third uncle ruined his marriage, and Xu Damao had not dealt with him since they were young, so he came up with this method to make the three children feel disgusted with these two people.
However, this matter broke the rules. A few of them had just decided to hold a group meeting today, saying that there was no need to pay New Year's greetings to each other one by one. The neighbors in the yard also agreed with both hands, but now he took people there.
I asked for money to pay New Year greetings, but I didn't mean to go against the people. I was instantly criticized by everyone.
However, Ren Shazhu was not panicked at all, and the old god was standing there cracking melon seeds.
When everyone finished talking happily and suggested that he return the money, this guy grinned and had something to say.
He can return the money.
But those three children knelt down and kowtowed during the New Year greetings. Do they have to give them back?
This stuck the bug. How could the third uncle and Xu Damao kowtow to him? They could only accept this dumb loss with their noses pinched in disgrace.
Chu Heng was so happy watching on the side that his stomach hurt from laughing. There was so much joy in Sijiu City, half of it was in the courtyard!
Who says Shazhu is stupid? He seems so wise and foolish!
This meal of melon is very satisfying.
Chu Heng quietly gave Si Zhu a thumbs up, wiped himself away from the crowd, went home, packed up, and rode his bike to work.
When he arrived at the unit, almost all the employees in the shop were here. They were all listless and yawning. It was obvious that they had stayed up late last night.
Chu Heng entered the room and first wished all the aunts New Year's greetings. Then he angrily began to tell the story of what happened in the courtyard this morning, including the cause and effect of the incident.
Ouch!
When the aunts heard this, they were no longer confused. They held a tea party in high spirits and discussed in depth the affairs between Silly Zhu and Widow Qin.
Chu Heng:???
He was immediately confused and doubted himself a little.
Did I say that Silly Zhu and the others broke their shoes?
No?
But why did the topic suddenly go off the rails!
Although what they talked about was very exciting, it made him, a divider of the divide, very disappointed!
As a newcomer to Gua Tian, Chu Heng listened angrily to the side for a while, and soon began to admire the aunts.
The ability of these old ladies to spread rumors is really terrifying.
Silly Zhu and Widow Qin were nowhere to be seen. They just made up an affair scene.
Time, place, conversation, posture, time, posture, time, place, posture, time...
This set of procedures was so detailed that Chu Heng almost believed it!
