The first day of the first lunar month.

As early as the morning, the whole team became lively.

The children who usually sleep in did not sleep in today. They got up early and made an appointment with their brothers, sisters and friends to go to New Year greetings together.

At this time, when people pay New Year greetings, they are not looking for new year's money, but for the food of others.

No matter how stingy you are, the door to your home will be open on this day, and some melon seeds, peanuts, or rice krispies fried by yourself will be placed on the table in the main room. When the children in the brigade come to pay New Year greetings, they will be welcomed into the house in a friendly manner. Give each person a little food to eat, and then let him go.

A child who runs fast and has a sweet mouth can save enough snacks for a month by visiting the house to pay New Year greetings on this day.

Men get up early and go out in large groups to pay their respects to the New Year.

The so-called running for the New Year means running to greet the New Year!When you go to each house, you only say a few words of New Year greetings, and everything goes well, then you turn around and go out to the next house.

We had to rush through almost all the people we had good relations with in the brigade before lunch, which was indeed a bit physically demanding.

Women also had no time to spare and stayed at home, boiling water and making tea.

Not only do we have to entertain the men who come to pay New Year's greetings, we also have to entertain the children who come to pay New Year's greetings, and we don't even touch the floor all morning.

As the Romans do in the countryside, Gu Zhiyuan got up early in the morning and went to the home of the team leader and party secretary to pay New Year greetings.

Xu Ningyan stayed at home, opened the door to her room, and put some important things that should not be seen by outsiders into the box.

The heating stove was burning brightly, with a pot of hot water sitting on it, and a stack of bowls and a bag of brown sugar next to it. When someone came, they would make a bowl of brown sugar tea for Tiantianzui.

The child is here, after all, it is the first day of the first lunar month. Although the clothes are still patched, they are all washed clean. The usually dirty little face has also been washed clean, and it looks more pleasing to the eye.

Tie Zhu and Xu Ningyan established an iron-clad relationship through fruit candies and gossip.

After entering the courtyard with a group of friends, they began to send New Year greetings to Xu Ningyan: "New Year greetings to Aunt Siya! Congratulations on getting rich! Good luck in the New Year!"

Xu Ningyan smiled and asked them to line up, and each of them stuffed a fruit candy, a handful of melon seeds and peanuts, and a small piece of rice krispie treats.

These children were so happy that some stuffed it into their mouths on the spot, while others were reluctant to eat it and put it in their purses to save for later.

The children also came in a swarm to pay New Year greetings and ran away in a swarm.

Before Tiezhu left, he was stopped by Xu Ningyan and secretly gave him a handful of White Rabbit toffee.

Then he made a "shhhhhhh" gesture.

Tie Zhu understood it and knew that Xu Ningyan had given it to him alone. He nodded with a wink and put the White Rabbit toffee into the purse inside his blouse, and then he went to chase his friends.

There is an endless stream of people coming to pay New Year greetings, no less than the captain and party secretary.

Firstly, thanks to Xu Ningyan, everyone has earned more money this year.

Secondly, knowing that Xu Ningyan and Gu Zhiyuan are now the most promising people in the Unity Team, who wouldn't want to sell them well?

Not to mention the children, who heard that they could get a piece of candy, peanuts, melon seeds and rice krispie treats for New Year greetings to Xu Ningyan.

As the morning passed, except for the snacks that Xu Ningyan specially kept to entertain guests for the next two days, everything else was taken away by these children who came to pay New Year's greetings.

There were also children who came late and refused to leave looking at the empty plates on the table and the bags beside them.

Xu Ningyan had no choice but to make brown sugar tea for them, one bowl for each person. After finishing the drink, she reluctantly left with a pout on her lips.

Beating her waist, Xu Ningyan looked at the mess on the table and smiled bitterly.

Two pots of water on the heating stove were drained, and a bag of brown sugar was washed away. It was almost time for lunch, and the number of people coming to pay New Year greetings was slowly decreasing.

Gu Zhiyuan originally only planned to pay New Year's greetings to the brigade leader, party secretary, Uncle Xie and a few other families who had treated them well before and then go home.

But when he went to the brigade leader's and party secretary's house, he was grabbed and dragged along to pay New Year's greetings to the home of an extremely respected old man in the brigade before he was let back.

After coming back, they waited for a while, but no one came to wish them a happy New Year. The two of them let out a sigh of relief and closed the courtyard door.

Looking at each other, they felt that this was more tiring than going to work.

Fortunately, everyone would rest at home in the afternoon. As soon as they closed the yard door and let go, they blocked many children who were still unwilling to come back in the afternoon to ask for sweets.

Finally got a clean slate.

The next day is the second day of the Lunar New Year.

The day when the daughter returns to her parents’ home.

There are a lot fewer children in the brigade, who have all gone back to their parents' homes with their parents, and there are also a lot more strange children, all of whom are married and brought back men and children from the brigade.

Xu Ningyan had no family to return to, so the two of them thought they would be able to live in peace for a day.

Unexpectedly, after breakfast, Uncle Xie came to her door and wanted Xu Ningyan and Gu Zhiyuan to go to her house today to help accompany her son-in-law, daughter-in-law and their family when they returned.

By the way, Uncle Xie is also a miserable person.

She was not a local, but was sold by traffickers to a family in the next village as a child bride.

Everyone knows what kind of life the child bride lived. She finally survived until the son of that family grew up. The two consummated their marriage and gave birth to a son.

Later, she became pregnant again, a girl.

The girl was not even one year old when she was born, but the man fell ill and died.

The parents-in-law were dissatisfied and felt that Uncle Xie and their newborn daughter had killed their son. They did not like to see Uncle Xie and the little girl.

He only kept his eldest grandson by his side, and drove Uncle Xie and his youngest daughter to live in a shack, regardless of their mother and daughter's life or death.

Uncle Xie has a really difficult life with her little daughter, who has to take care of the child and earn money to support herself.

Fortunately, Uncle Xie had learned a few herbs from a man before, and also learned how to deliver babies.

With her skills in delivering babies and her knowledge of herbal medicine, she could barely make ends meet.

Although Uncle Xie didn't talk much when she was young, she was very helpful and was very popular in several nearby villages.

She was attracted by an uncle of the Xu family. This uncle also had a daughter-in-law. After the two got married, they had no children for many years.

Uncle Xu liked children very much, so he fell in love with Uncle Xie. He felt that she had given birth to two children before, and if she married him, she would definitely be able to give him several children.

When I get home, I want to divorce my original wife.

The original daughter-in-law could not have children. If she was divorced and returned to her parents' home without a place to stay, she would naturally refuse.

They had been arguing for a long time, but when they saw that Uncle Xu wouldn't let go and wanted to divorce her, they simply lost almost all the family fortune that Uncle Xu had earned, and then returned to her parents' home with hatred.

As long as Uncle Xu can divorce his original wife, he will follow her in everything.

As soon as the original daughter-in-law returned to her parents' home, she found someone to propose marriage to Uncle Xie, and took the initiative to treat Uncle Xie's daughter as her own.

Uncle Xie didn't believe it at first, but later she saw that Uncle Xu was indeed sincere, so she agreed.
