The matter of skipping a grade was postponed again and again, and just like that, the twelfth lunar month passed quietly, and it was the Chinese New Year in a blink of an eye.
The Chinese New Year in the countryside is very different from that in the 21st century. The countryside is not big, but the excitement starts early in the morning as soon as you enter the village, and the sound of firecrackers will not stop until the next morning.
It was lively, but there was also a disadvantage. The air was filled with smoke from firecrackers, and the smell was very choking.
Tian Yuan couldn't stand the smell, and she couldn't bear the cough all day long. Tian Biao and Tian Maochun felt very distressed when they saw it, and thought to themselves, why do people in this village keep setting off firecrackers?
"Yuanyuan, if it's really that uncomfortable, why don't you and your parents go back to the county town tomorrow? In this countryside, we've been waiting for the firecrackers for half a month. Seeing you coughing makes your face turn red." Tian Maochun felt distressed.
I just can’t understand why this child has become so squeamish now when he didn’t know how to do it before.
Could it be that after living in the county town, my physique has changed? But the custom here in the countryside is that when anyone comes to visit during the New Year, they must set off a string of firecrackers to wish the owner's family good luck. Every household has guests all day long, so these firecrackers
Of course it cannot be stopped.
"It's okay, grandpa. I got used to it after hearing it for two days. There is no family in the county during the Chinese New Year. Grandpa and third uncle are both at home." Tian Yuan had a headache, and her temples were throbbing, and her whole body was throbbing.
People feel dizzy.
"That's right, we are all from farmers' families, how can we be so delicate? It's not like there are no elderly people at home, so how can we go back to the county town to celebrate the New Year." Tian Biao pressed Tian Yuan and said so, but still frowned a little distressed.
, "This girl wouldn't be like this in previous years. Why is her health so bad this year? Could it be that she was so tired in the past six months?"
"Yuanyuan, why don't you go for a walk in the mountains and breathe in the fresh air? I'll call you after dinner." Li Shufen then told her, "It's cold, so don't walk too far."
Tian Yuan shook her head, "No, I'm too lazy to go. I'll go back to the house and lie down for a while."
Just as he was about to go out, he saw Lao Hu and his wife walking in. This was the first time that Lao Hu and his wife came to Tian's house. They brought gifts as a New Year greeting.
During the Chinese New Year, not only acquaintances but also strangers would smile at each other when they passed each other and made eye contact. Lao Hu and his wife came in, and the one named Le was the one.
Lao Hu's wife is a very precise person. She walked around Tian Yuan's house with a pair of eyes, then stopped on Tian Yuan's body and smiled, "Hey, this is a talented woman. Listen to your uncle Lao Hu."
He said, you have learned everything and your grades are getting better!"
"Auntie, you're complimenting me, please sit down quickly." Tian Yuan smiled. In fact, Tian Yuan couldn't say that she liked Lao Hu's wife, because she had the characteristics that a peasant woman was particularly famous for. She could do calculations and care about every little thing.
I am greedy for money as much as I can.
Lao Hu set off a string of thousand-ring firecrackers outside. The crackling sound attracted all the children in the Tian family's ancestral home. When Tian Lu and Tian Jiabao heard that they had guests, they immediately ran back.
There were many children following behind.
Lao Hu walked in and gave the red envelopes he had prepared in advance to the three siblings. Tian Jiabao and Tian Lu looked at the red envelopes and wanted to accept them but did not dare to accept them. They looked at Li Shufen.
"Since it was given to you by your Uncle Hu, just accept it. It is your lucky money. Thank you uncle." Li Shufen smiled happily, feeling very happy that her child was so sensible.
