Firecrackers cannot be set off in cities, as the New Year atmosphere is lighter, but firecrackers can be set off in rural areas. In the evening of New Year's Eve, every household will set off firecrackers when offering sacrifices to the gods of heaven and earth, and the sound is endless.
In the faint smell of smoke and the continuous sound of firecrackers, the strong atmosphere of the New Year has gradually reached its peak.
The elders of the Chao family have been busy for a long time, preparing more than a dozen special dishes, worshiping the gods in the evening, and setting the table for the New Year's dinner when it gets dark.
While the people in the south were having lunch around the table, the herdsmen on the Wula Grassland in the far north also celebrated the festival according to their own national traditions.
A few years ago, old Mrs. Baoyin's winter was too cold, so her children and grandchildren in the city took her to a heated city to spend the winter, and then returned to the grassland in spring when the flowers bloomed.
This year, Mrs. Baoyin is in good health and insists on celebrating the New Year on the grassland.
In the past, herders had no fixed residence, but now they are semi-sedentary, with fixed residences and fixed grazing areas. They go to live in pastoral areas in spring, and then return to settled areas after grazing breaks.
Old Mrs. Baoyin has been living with her eldest son. Her eldest son's eldest daughter-in-law has passed away, so she lives with her eldest grandson. Her other sons and grandsons also help her eldest grandson and take care of the elderly together. The big family is very harmonious.
In the winter, there is no grazing, and the children and grandchildren who are close to each other drive their cattle and sheep back to the place where their ancestors settled early. The brothers of a large family join together to celebrate the festival.
Old Mrs. Baoyin has a son who settled in Hulun Grassland, which is far away. Every year, the descendants of that branch take turns arranging for people to stay behind to take care of the livestock, and some of them go back to their old mother and grandmother to celebrate the New Year.
There is another child who has settled in an area where planting is the main area and returns to the Wula Grassland during the Chinese New Year.
The children and grandchildren gather together before the Chinese New Year to visit each other and hold various activities with the herdsmen in the settlement area. Every day is lively.
Mrs. Baoyin and her sons ate roasted whole lamb around the fire in the evening, drank wine, sang and danced.
During a short break, Mrs. Baoyin announced to her children and grandchildren the news that she had found her relatives, and explained in detail the reasons for the separation and which relatives she still had in her natal family.
She also told her decision that she would go to meet her parents at Qingming Festival next spring.
When the young and old of the Le family heard that the old grandmother had found her natal family, they cheered with excitement. They also supported the old grandmother in identifying her relatives, and discussed that each branch would send representatives to accompany the old grandmother to worship their maternal ancestors.
Because of the good news, the men, women, and children were excited, toasted to the old grandmother, and happily sang and danced around the old grandmother.
The Le family's place was very lively. The neighbors also brought barbecue and wine, and gathered around the fire to drink and sing. Some people also played the matouqin, and everyone celebrated the festival together.
White snow covers the grassland, but it cannot stop the herdsmen's passionate mood, and their beautiful songs float on the grassland.
The Le family's New Year's Eve dinner lasted for more than three hours. They ate in a lively manner, and then sat and watched the New Year's Eve, eating melon seeds and drinking tea, which was comfortable and leisurely.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to watch the New Year's Eve, classmate Le also found his great-aunt, who told the family that she would visit Jiudao's grave in Jiudao next year during the Qingming Festival, so that the family could be mentally prepared.
After telling her the good news, she naturally also explained who her aunt was and why she had been separated for so many years.
The Chao family is one of our own, and Handsome Yan and Handsome Lan can be considered members of the same camp. Classmate Le Xiao did not hide the origins and experiences of his great-grandfather.
Only when everyone knows the truth, can everyone work together and communicate to the outside world in a unified manner, so as to avoid being unable to keep up with the rhythm when cooperation is needed because no one knows the reason, and thus falling off the chain in the middle.
Yan Xing heard Xiao Loli mention the origin of the Le family. He, his teammates and Liu helped check the Le family in H Nannan City and the Le family in Xi City. He and Lan San knew the general situation, so they were relatively calm.
Le's father, Zhou Qiufeng, and nine members of the Chao family, young and old, were shocked when they heard about the origin of the Le family's twists and turns.
After the shock, they calmed down and unanimously remembered Xiaotuanzi's words to the outside world. They also welcomed the lost aunt of the Le family for returning to her hometown to pay homage to her father.
Because it snowed heavily, on New Year's Eve, only the houses next to each other visited each other, and the houses far apart did not visit each other. Each family stayed at home to watch the New Year.
Stay up until early in the morning and set off firecrackers to welcome the New Year.
Because the Chao family came all the way to Meicun to celebrate the New Year, Le’s father also bought three boxes of fireworks and let the three children set off the fireworks.
So, the two "children" who were already over the legal marriage age and the innocent child Le Yun, under the eager anticipation of their elders, took the incense sticks and lit the fireworks.
The old year passed with laughter, and the new year came with laughter.
After welcoming the New Year, people also go to catch up on their sleep.
As people went to rest one after another, the night in the countryside finally became quiet.
The beautiful young man had to be on duty on the first day of the Lunar New Year. The Le family couple were afraid of missing the time, so they set the alarm clock and slept until five o'clock when they got up to make breakfast.
The young and old of the Chao family also got up one after another, and everyone made a lively breakfast together and ate it together to get a good omen, which meant reunion and perfection in the new year.
It was nearly seven o'clock after a lively breakfast.
Lan San flew Master Chao to Shishi in a helicopter and sent him to the municipal employee residential area in Shishi.
The beautiful young man brought a trailer of medicinal food from Chao's house. He sent the luggage back to the dormitory first, and only took a gift for the colleague on duty to the municipal office building to hand over the shift.
After Le's father and others sent Brother Bo to work, they prepared candies for the children who came home to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the new year. They also set up tables and chairs in advance and lit a brazier.
The children of Plum Village still go to Lejia for New Year greetings as they did in previous years.
It is a very interesting custom for children in the countryside to visit New Year's greetings on the first day of the new year. It was the first time for the Chao family's Sanjun and his wife to enjoy the fun of a festival full of traditional flavor and they were extremely happy.
At noon, Sanjun and his wife also saw the popularity of Xiao Lele in Jiudao Township - there were nineteen tables of children in the Le family at noon!
The children, big and small, had a wonderful lunch at Lejia, and when they left, each of them had candies and snacks wrapped in lotus leaves.
The children came happily and went home happy.
After seeing off the little guests, the Chao family members also breathed a sigh of relief. They felt that entertaining children was more tiring than hosting a banquet in Beijing.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, classmate Le entertained the children. On the second day of the Lunar New Year, he took his younger brother to Grandpa Man and Aunt Man’s house to pay New Year greetings. He also visited several neighbors in the surrounding area and just went about his own business.
Mr. Li Zhao, who went back to Qiongdao to celebrate the New Year, and Mr. Yan who went back to his hometown to celebrate the New Year, both returned to Lejia in Meicun on the afternoon of the second day of the lunar new year.
Lan San and Young Master Yan helped the Le family entertain the guests who were visiting each other for the New Year. On the evening of the third day of the Lunar New Year, they went to pick up the market and brought Master Chao to the Le family.
Yi Laoyanlao was back, and someone was protecting his family. Classmate Le was relieved and went into the mountains with his luggage bag on the afternoon of the fourth day.
The reason is to collect the morning dew on the day of the beginning of spring and observe certain medicinal materials. If there are new roots and sprouts growing under certain medicinal materials, she will wait for a while and dig out the sprouts before returning home.
She expected to set off for southern Xinjiang after returning from the mountains, so that handsome boys Lan San and handsome Yan did not have to wait for her, so that they could go back to the capital first and help bring the Chao elders and her baby brother, Mr. Li, back to Beijing.
Yan Xing was so angry that he secretly blew his beard and glared, and the little Loli left his bodyguards and went on her own!
No matter how angry he was, there was nothing he could do. The little loli wouldn't let anyone follow her, so they couldn't follow her quietly even if they wanted to.
The depressed Young Master Yan stayed at Lejia for another day, and with the Chao family, Li Zhaole returned to Beijing on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year and took Young Master Chao to Shishi along the way.
Young Master Yan and Lan San sent the eight elders of the Chao family to Mr. Chao's villa, and then returned to the paradise to unload the ingredients that Little Lolita had given to Brother Fu and the children.
Little Loli also asked them to transport a few chickens to the paradise and put them in the poultry yard.
Because he didn’t know when Little Loli would go to southern Xinjiang, Young Master Yan did not go to Province X immediately and waited for news in the capital.
Li Zhao took his junior brother to the paradise and started teaching again. He gave lessons to his junior brother and a group of little carrots on time every day.
After entering the mountains, classmate Le first went to the secret medicinal field in Shennong Mountain to look at the medicinal materials. After one o'clock in the dead of night, he went straight to Tianwang Mountain in Shonan Province, which is adjacent to E North.
She is going to find the source of her great-grandfather’s medical skills.
Tianwang Mountain is Qingyan Mountain, the most famous scenic spot in southern Hunan, also called Tianzi Mountain.
Grandpa Le Tai, the founder of the Le family, once traveled to southern Hunan Province for business needs. He encountered bandits in the Tianwang Mountain area. He fled into the mountains and lost his way. He strayed into a certain place. By chance, he had an adventure and obtained the Le family.
The lost ancestral item and some prescriptions.
Tianwang Mountain is less than 400 kilometers away from Jiudao Township. If you take a plane and walk in a straight line, it will take at most an hour. Because of the snow, the sky and the earth are completely white, and the visibility is extremely high at night. Le Xiaololi does not dare to walk in a straight line.
, try to fly over the mountains away from human habitation.
Braving the severe cold, it took her an hour and a half to get to Tianwang Mountain.
Tianwang Mountain is a scenic spot and is crowded with tourists all year round. Currently, because it is the Chinese New Year season and the mountain is covered with heavy snow, climbing is too dangerous, so there are no tourists in the scenic spot.
The Tianwang Mountain covered with white snow is like white bamboo shoots sprouting from the ground, glowing with a misty white light in the night, and the deep valleys and ravines are a bit eerie.
When Leyun arrived outside Tianwang Mountain, she put away the aircraft and flew with her flying sword, overlooking the scenic spot from a high altitude while flying.
Tianwang Mountain has been developed into a scenic spot. There are many artificial architectural attractions and plank roads and cable bridges, which to a certain extent actually damage the natural ornamental value and beauty of the natural wonder.
The scenery in the mountains varies with the four seasons, each with its own merits. In winter, the mountains are covered with silver makeup, and the peaks under the stars and moon are like a cold beauty in white robes, cold and arrogant.
Tianwang Mountain stretches for more than 40 kilometers and is surrounded by valleys and valleys.
After wandering around at high altitude, Leyun easily identified which ravine was the place where her great-grandfather had an adventure.
Tianwang Mountain has steep cliffs and deep ravines, with numerous cliffs and narrow valleys. In many places, the walls are as sharp as a knife, making it difficult for monkeys to climb. The valley below is so deep and deep that it is difficult to explore its bottom, and there is no way to explore it.
What the deep valleys among the cliffs and dangerous peaks look like and what they contain is still a mystery.
Two of the deep valleys contain secrets. It is speculated that they were caves or temporary cultivation places for some immortal cultivators a long time ago.
After finding the unique valleys and comparing them, Le Yun knew which valley was where her great-grandfather had been, and she flew to the top of the deep valley with her flying sword.
