On New Year's Eve, Mother Lin took the whole family to watch TV, watching the big TV in the living room until the gala ended.
This is the happiest thing she has ever seen.
It doesn’t matter how good the show is, I don’t have too much burden on my heart, so I can naturally enjoy everything I watch.
Even if it's not a very funny sketch, it can still make you laugh.
Lin Xiaoda went around taking pictures with his new equipment at night, and Lin Qian bought him a video camera, which was like going back and forth with the pink woolen coat.
Lin Xiao was so curious that when he walked around the village, he would take pictures of anyone setting off fireworks or chatting.
When it was completely quiet outside, he could no longer take pictures of people and things, but he could still take pictures of the night scene in the sky.
Lin Qian fell asleep after watching the beginning of the show, lying on the sofa, still holding uneaten melon seeds in her hand.
"Why is this child so sleepy? He doesn't look like a young man at all. Look at Lin Xiao, that child has so much energy, it's as if he doesn't need to sleep." Father Lin ate the melon seeds in her hand, and then ate the melon seeds in her hand.
The shell was returned to her hand.
Mother Lin noticed and stepped over, "How old are you? You're here for the Chinese New Year, right?"
Father Lin was caught off guard by the pain and his teeth stuck out, "Oh! You are so evil."
"Wake the child up and let her go upstairs to sleep." Mother Lin ordered.
Father Lin bared his teeth and called people.
Lin Qian went upstairs in a daze.
The next day, the first day of the Lunar New Year.
At six o'clock in the morning, firecrackers were set off in the village. Tianlei opened the window of Lin Qian's bedroom and stretched out his head to look around.
The smell of sulfur drifted back into the room along the cracks, waking up Lin Qian from a deep sleep.
"Are you free to play today?" The moment Lin Qian woke up, she habitually gave herself a cleanse.
Tianlei stepped on the window sill and turned around, "Didn't you say you wouldn't hunt for exotic animals today?"
"Yeah, no digging." Lin Qian stood up lazily, "You have to rest, right?"
"That's right!" The moment Tianlei jumped off the window sill, he closed the window with his tail and followed Lin Qian happily, "Can I eat a lot during the Chinese New Year?"
"Ha!"
It is related to local customs. Here in Xialing Village, the first meal on the first day of the new year is very particular. The person who cooks must be the person in charge of the family, and what is cooked in the pot must be glutinous rice balls.
As soon as Lin Qian entered the kitchen, she saw Dad Lin making breakfast. In the big iron pot were hand-rolled glutinous rice balls that had not changed for decades.
There are many things that Lin Qian doesn't like to eat, and glutinous rice balls are among the things that she doesn't like to eat very much.
I can't escape, so I can only eat.
So she planned to eat half a pound of braised beef to pad her belly before eating glutinous rice balls.
"Dad, Happy New Year."
Father Lin served a spoonful of glutinous rice balls to Lin Qian, "Hey! You are happy too, your mother has New Year's money."
"Thank you."
"Why are you thanking me? It's too intrusive."
"Thank you for this bowl of glutinous rice balls."
Dad Lin: "It means reunion. You must eat it. Do you add white sugar or brown sugar?"
"Can I add chili pepper?"
"Can it be eaten with chili pepper? I'll give you a spoonful of brown sugar. The color is about the same."
The happiest thing about the Chinese New Year is receiving lucky money, but that is a benefit only for children. In the past, Lin Qian's family was poor, and it was a heavy burden for Lin's father and mother to raise two children. Lin Qian and Lin Xiao had always been able to receive lucky money. It is impossible to use it for them. Mother Lin wants to take it back and use it when she is giving red envelopes to other children.
It’s different when you have money.
The happiness you didn’t have when you were a child can be had when you have money.
Father Lin and Mother Lin prepared big red envelopes for their two children.
Ten thousand per person.
Of course, it is quite big for them.
Lin Xiao held the red envelope and felt it was hot to her hands. "I'm so old, it's not appropriate to collect New Year's money." He put it back on the coffee table.
"Take it!" Father Lin forced it into his hand, "We have this money at home, and your second aunt and I are willing to give it to you. What's wrong with it?"
"Yes, Xiaoxiao." Mother Lin played a nostalgic card, "When you were young, you could only covet others. Your second uncle and I had no ability before and couldn't make much money.
Now that we have money, we, the elders, want to make it up to you and satisfy our own wishes, so just accept it."
I don’t know how many times I have said similar words, but Lin Xiao just sticks to this.
He fawned over the good boy and said a lot of good things, until someone knocked on the courtyard door.
"Oh!" Dad Lin was happy, "Someone is coming to the door so early. Are the peanuts and melon seeds ready? I'll open the door!" Dad Lin thought it was people from the same village coming to pay New Year greetings, but he didn't expect it was three unexpected people.
Among the three is Xiaoliu, who sent him back from the city last time.
"Xiaoliu?"
Before Father Lin could react, the three people outside the door started Happy New Year and handed over gifts.
"Hey, aren't you Xiaoxiao's classmate?" Lin's father asked, "You know Xiaoliu."
Lin Mumu: "Yes, uncle, we are... uh, in a training class."
"Oh, it's not easy to attend a training class after going to college? Hey, what do you teach in that training class? I'll sign up for Xiaoxiao too."
"Mr. Lin." Liu Baihua stepped forward to block Lin's father's series of questions, "This is a training class for learning calligraphy, and I am the teacher.
We are here to pay New Year greetings to Boss Xiaolin, is she at home?"
Father Lin understood again. It was probably Xiaoliu who came here specifically to give gifts for work reasons. "Hey, you guys are so polite. She is at home, so please invite her in the house."
There was no need to invite anyone into the house, Lin Qian came out on her own.
Of course, Lin Xiao and Dahuang also followed.
What these people wanted to say to her would not be easy to say in front of her family, so after accepting the gift, Lin Qian said, "Will I take you around the village?"
"Okay, okay, just in time to experience the New Year in the countryside." Liu Baihua said, "Sorry to trouble you."
"Sister, I'll go with you too."
"Follow me as soon as I think about it." Lin Qian is now open-minded and no longer reminds Lin Xiao to keep a distance from the cultivators. After all, the level of cultivators here is far lower than she imagined, and Lin Xiao is really not a cultivator.
talent.
So, feel free to do whatever you want.
"Hey, old classmate!" Lin Xiao caught up with them and first greeted Lin Mumu, "I originally wanted to invite you to the village after the Chinese New Year, but I didn't expect you to come first. Didn't you go back to Binshi?" p>
"Hello old classmate in the New Year." Lin Mumu was very happy to see Lin Xiao as expected. It was rare to have someone with whom she could share happiness. "Master left me to spend the winter vacation in Green Mountain."
Hearing Green Mountain, Lin Xiao thought of the old man he met before the Chinese New Year, "I overheard that there are only three people in the sect you joined. Is it true?"
"It's true."
The two people chatted for a while, chatting at the end of the group.
"Immortal." Liu Baihua lowered his voice, "When we came here just now, Da Jing said that he sensed an unusual aura on the west side of the mountain, but when we stopped searching, we couldn't sense it. It's really strange.
.
This kid Dajing has a stronger sense than me, so there must be something abnormal on the west side of the mountain."
Lin Qian: "I put something over there, no need to make a fuss."
