The news that Lu Chengcheng contracted the reservoir spread throughout the village again, but now everyone is no longer surprised. After all, Lu Chengcheng is not an ordinary person and cannot be viewed with ordinary eyes.

This incident was news to some people, but it was also an opportunity to some others - Lu Chengcheng had contracted the reservoir, and she would definitely need help, so she would hire someone when the time came, so she had to go find her quickly and negotiate the job.

Now Lu Chengcheng is still thinking about how to control the water and has not thought about finding anyone to do the work.

At night, Lu Chengcheng fetched some river water and brought it into the space.

In the space, Lu Chengcheng built a pavilion and planted some green plants. The scenery is fresh and beautiful. It looks like a leisure place in the wild, very beautiful and natural.

Lu Chengcheng put the river water aside and poured some into a white basin. She then went to get some gourd water, poured a drop into it, and then observed the reaction.

The river water in the basin became clean and clear in all directions with the water drop as the center, and finally the whole basin of water turned colorless.

This gourd water is really amazing, it can even purify water.

Lu Chengcheng was quite satisfied.

"If calabash water can purify water, then we can put some into the river. Before putting it in, buy a boat for easy operation."

“How do I buy a boat?”

……

Lu Chengcheng asked Qiao Yaojun: "Cousin, I need your help with something."

Qiao Yaojun was particularly happy: "What favor do you need? Just tell me. As long as you ask, I will definitely get it done for you."

Lu Chengcheng then spoke up: "I want to buy a boat so that I can observe the situation in the river."

Qiao Yaojun asked: "What kind of boat do you want?"

Lu Chengcheng described it as: "It can seat four or five people and carry a load of 1,000 kilograms. It is not too heavy and is easy to operate."

"Okay, I got it. I'll arrange it right away." Qiao Yaojun went to the side to make a phone call, and when he came back he told Lu Chengcheng that everything had been arranged and they just had to wait until the first month of the year to receive the goods.

Lu Chengcheng thanked: "Thank you, cousin."

Qiao Yaojun straightened his chest and said, "It's no big deal."

Things are almost settled and New Year's Eve is here.

On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, people worship the Kitchen God. On New Year's Eve, they put up couplets, paper-cuts on windows, and worship their ancestors...

Lu Chengcheng got busy early in the morning and asked sisters Qiao Yaojun and Lin Xiangyun to put up Spring Festival couplets. Lu Chengcheng caught the big rooster and asked the villagers to help kill it, then plucked its feathers and prepared it, and finally put it in the pot to cook it.

After the skin is cooked firmly, place the chicken in a kneeling position on a large plate and place it in the main room.

Then they fried the fish. Lou Shaotang had come to help early in the morning. He was frying the fish, frying the whole fish. The room was filled with the aroma of oil, which was particularly fragrant.

After frying the fish, put it on a large plate and bring it to the main room.

The other one is the buttocks with the pig's tail, which Lu Chengcheng specially left behind. He put it in a pot to boil, then put it on a large plate and brought it to the main room.

The three-piece set for ancestor worship is ready here.

The third aunt has already prepared the paper money and can burn it when Lu Chengcheng comes.

Lu Chengcheng poured three cups of wine, placed them on the table, and then went to burn paper with his third aunt.

Grandma and her friends were watching from the sidelines. They were city people and didn’t know how to do these things, but they found it fresh and interesting.

Old Man Lou was also sitting on the sofa watching, his eyes full of nostalgia. When he was a child, his family celebrated New Year’s Eve like this. After he moved to the city, it was never like this again.

After Lu Chengcheng lit the incense, Mr. Lou also went to light three incense sticks: "I have been waiting to worship my old brother, and today I can finally do it."

Lu Chengcheng looked at Mr. Lou and said, "Grandpa, if my grandfather knew that you came to see him, he would be very happy."

Mr. Lou said regretfully: "It would be great if your grandfather were alive now."

Lu Chengcheng said: "I think so too, you can have a drink together."

Mr. Lou smiled and said, "Yes, drinking and playing chess are so pleasant. I just didn't expect that it would be our farewell forever. If I had known, I would definitely not let him go."

Lu Chengcheng said: "Grandpa, don't be too sad, grandpa will be worried about you."

Mr. Lou's eyes were slightly moist. He bowed three times and inserted the incense into the incense burner: "Brother, I will go down to accompany you in a few years. Please wait for me."

Lu Chengcheng couldn't help but be moved when he heard this: "Grandpa..."

Lou Shaotang came over and supported Grandpa Lou: "Grandpa, don't be too sad. Grandpa Lu will be worried when he sees you like this."

Mr. Lou was filled with sorrow: "If he was worried, he wouldn't have left."

Lou Shaotang said: "That's not why Grandpa Lu wants to leave."

Mr. Lou sat on the sofa, looking at the burning incense and candles, and missed his youth more and more.

Lu Chengcheng said: "Everyone go to the yard and burn paper money. It will irritate your eyes."

Everyone walked into the yard.

Lu Chengcheng started burning the paper money. The flames gradually spread and burned all the paper money.

After the paper money was burned, Lu Chengcheng set off firecrackers. After that, there was nothing to do but to prepare lunch.

Every household in the village was offering sacrifices to their ancestors, and the sound of firecrackers continued. The sound of firecrackers could also be heard in the distance, as if they were responding to each other.

Crackling, there will be the sound of firecrackers throughout the next day.

The third aunt drove Lu Chengcheng out of the kitchen: "Chengcheng, the third aunt will cook today, you go and play."

Lu Chengcheng said: "Let me help."

The third aunt stopped at the door and said, "On New Year's Eve, the children are playing outside and the parents are here to cook."

Lu Chengcheng said, "With so many people here, Third Aunt can't cook by herself. I'll help and the meal will be ready soon."

Lou Shaotang rolled up his sleeves and said, "I'll do it."

The third aunt also refused: "Go out, there is no reason for the younger generation to cook today, go play, go play."

Lou Shaotang said: "Let me do it..."

The Third Auntie drove them away: "No, all of you get out, don't waste my time, or I won't be able to finish it later."

Lu Chengcheng and Lou Shaotang looked at each other helplessly and had to leave.

The two of them came outside, but did not go out to play. Instead, they were busy preparing other things they needed to eat for lunch.

Lou Shaotang looked at Lu Chengcheng and said, "Weren't you scared when you lit the firecrackers just now?"

Lu Chengcheng said: "What's there to be afraid of? This isn't the first time."

Lou Shaotang asked: "Do you do this often?"

Lu Chengcheng had already developed his courage: "No, I just know how to do some things. The factory opened, and I also ordered it myself for the New Year's Eve ancestor worship last year. It's nothing."

Lou Shaotang said: "A woman has done everything a man does."

Lu Chengcheng laughed: "If I needed it at that time, I couldn't find a man, right?"

Lou Shaotang pursed his lips and said, "If you need me for anything in the future, just tell me. As long as I can do it, I will do it."

Lu Chengcheng raised her eyes and looked into Lou Shaotang's eyes, with a smile in her eyes: "Okay, I won't be polite."
