In the new year, there is joy everywhere. Tian Jiazhi also has two days off this year to spend time with his daughter and son at home.
But I will definitely go to the compound during the Chinese New Year.
In other families, the aunt picks up the girl back to her parents’ home on the second day of the Lunar New Year. Rentian Jiazhi said that we will talk about the second day of the Lunar New Year. Let’s take the girl back in the twelfth lunar month first and then send her back during the Chinese New Year. Let’s all be busy together.
.
Okay, whoever wants to keep the distance short, let him or her do whatever he wants.
Li Hongqi, who has been busy for more than half a year, now has a few days off to spend time with his parents and daughter-in-law at home.
My eldest uncle came to pick me up. Without saying a word, he brought his parents and Zhu Xiaosi over. In the words of the Li family couple, they had long wanted to come and stay for a few days on this street of Tianye's house.
, look at the excitement next year.
Of course, their daughter married far away. Let alone the second year of junior high school, she could not go back to her parents' home for several years. The old couple actually didn't have many relatives to go around. It was refreshing to go out for a walk.
Moreover, Li Hongqi’s father even wrote a couplets and put them next to Aunt Niu’s stall to test the waters. Just for fun.
Unfortunately, the effect was mediocre and not many people came to visit. Li Hongqi's father was very depressed. He pointed at his pair and said to Mrs. Niu: "Go around these stalls and see how many of them can compare to me. How come no one buys them?"
Woolen cloth."
Aunt Niu curled her lips without giving any face. Aunt Niu has now found confidence in this street.
As the most popular paper-cut stall, I have a lot to say: "People celebrate the New Year with celebrations. What's the use of your good handwriting? You have to write the same pairs as on their stall, write the happy ones that everyone knows.
.If no one knows how to come here, no one will buy it, and it takes up most of the space in my stall."
Li Hongqi's father was not happy anymore. They all wrote the same vulgar words. He didn't want to write.
Of course, it would be a bit shameful for people to say that they occupied the stall for free.
So when Li Hongqi and Zhu Xiaosi came home from buying New Year's goods, they saw an old man setting up a temporary stall at the gate of Tianye's house to write couplets for people. However, it was a bit deserted and not many people came to visit.
Li Hongqi almost smiled crookedly, this old man was competing with himself.
Everyone here is engaged in business. How many people know the crazy things you wrote? Who has nothing to do to put this ghost-like thing on the door?
I was watching the booming business over there, and Mrs. Niu was frequently protesting here. Oops, the old man is a little pitiful.
As the brightest paper-cut lady on this street, Lady Renniu felt that Li Hongqi's father was not very understanding, so she just said a few words to him and even set up the stall by herself. What a petty person.
Zhu Xiaosi pulled Li Hongqi: "Dad, it's cold outside, but your room is warm. I'll help you look at the stalls."
Li Hongqi's father: "No, I'm doing well here. It's lively. Your sister-in-law even gave me a charcoal basin."
So there were only one or two people at the stall who came here just to warm themselves up by the fire. Sincerely no one was there to support them.
Zhu Xiaosi looked around, thinking to increase his father-in-law's popularity: "Dad, I also want to write two paintings."
Li Hongqi's father has always had a very good attitude towards his daughter-in-law. This child is sensible and adorable: "Okay, your word is good."
Zhu Xiaosi took off his gloves and tested his hand: "I still need your guidance. Recently, my handwriting has improved a lot, and the teacher has praised me. I learned it all from you."
Father Li was instantly flattered by his daughter-in-law. He happily polished his ink for his daughter-in-law. Li Hongqi was shocked to see it. His father's figure was not that low.
The things written by Zhu Xiaosi are the most practical and festive. They are definitely not as good as those written by Li Hongqi's father. They are better than those written by Li Hongqi's father. They are more neat and can be understood by most people.
The couplet written by Zhu Xiaosi was bought by someone not long after it was put up. Li Hongqi's father's stall finally opened.
Old Man Li pointed out that his daughter-in-law must not be crazy. After hanging up the things she had written, someone actually bought them. Although Old Man Li himself was extremely disdainful of the things, he finally opened the business.
The old man's lips were raised. The atmosphere of life here is very good. Everyone likes this, so he has to follow the local customs.
If the daughter-in-law's calligraphy is good, that means their family's calligraphy is good. So people who are crazy about cursive writing will immediately stop insisting on it.
I was happy in the evening, and I took the whole family to write couplets together. Mrs. Niu was not happy anymore. The whole field was cut out of red paper. Who could help her cut the window grilles? Isn't this old man making trouble?
Aunt Niu's window grill business is the only one on this street. It's a good thing there's no competition.
The next day when the old man hung up the couplets, he was surrounded by people. Why? An acquaintance was here. He knew that the old man was selling couplets here, so he came over.
Usually I have to ask someone to write for me, so I got an advantage.
Li Hongqi's father was so happy when he saw an acquaintance choosing couplets that he wrote two Chinese characters for blessing and gave them away for free. Is this a good deal?
But it doesn’t matter how much money you get.
Chang Bao and Chang Shun of Tianye's family carried two thermos bottles of hot water outside to treat the guests to tea. The two children went to the stall and followed the greetings. Even those who didn't appreciate it came over and bought two pairs. They looked so comfortable.
In the yard, Aunt Li said: "The old man is so beautiful this year. Look at him being happy and finding something fun, right?"
Then he was disgusted: "The entrance to the house is blocked, making it inconvenient to go back and forth. He is so noisy."
Well, the life of an old couple is quite boring. It's rare that Li Hongqi's father can enjoy himself.
But at noon, the old man was talked to. Several small owners of stalls selling couplets came together, and their accents were all from other places.
In a circle of people, the little boss put his hands in his sleeves and wore a cotton hat: "Uncle, I think you are not short of these two dollars. The couplets are all given as gifts. We dragged the family members out, just for the two dollars.
, go home and buy a headband or something for your daughter, uncle, can you please stop competing with us for business."
The older man over there then said, "Just take pity on our business, we are all just waiting to make ends meet."
He said a few soft words, and Li Hongqi's father didn't know how to speak. This also blocked his way of making money. Please apologize if you are worried, but you said you can't share the money with others, and your daughter-in-law is still following you.
I have been busy for most of the day.
Old Man Li was in a dilemma. He had never encountered anything like this before.
Tian Tian opened the door and came out: "Go, don't fool other old men and women here. Your New Year picture only cost a lot of money. If it changes hands, you will lose half of it. You even bought a headband to wear it. One day you won't earn one or two hundred here."
Yeah. You see my uncle is very kind-hearted, right?"
A few of the honest faces holding their sleeves were said to blush a little: "Aren't we just looking to see if the uncle is not short of these two dollars?"
Tian Ye greeted with a smile: "Don't fool people here. My uncle sells things from acquaintances here, and he still gives away a lot. If you think that my uncle is not here, these people can be fooled by you."
Don’t you think this group of people coming here are fooling you? Just go and do what you have to do.”
