Rebirth: Good Farming in the 90s

The fourteenth day of the seventh lunar month.

The family got up early to make breakfast to worship their ancestors. The four of them sat together to eat breakfast happily. Xiao Hei lay at Jiang Yu's feet and watched them eat. Those innocent and expectant black eyes were fixed. Staring at Jiang Yu, the little fool naturally couldn't bear it, and would clumsily pretend to pinch the food from time to time so that Xiao Hei could eat it.

Xiao Hei finished eating the egg with two slaps, then raised his head and stared at Jiang Yu silently.

Seeing Xiao Hei looking at him so openly, Jiang Yu was afraid of being found guilty, so he covered up and said: "You, don't look at me, I won't, I won't give you food, just now, I accidentally dropped it. Oh...I won't drop it."

Typical no silver here is 300 taels.

Qin Yang saw it funny, so he coughed lightly on purpose, Jiang Yu immediately turned his head to look at Qin Yang with a guilty conscience, and said dully: "Qin, Qin Yang, I didn't bring any food for you, let Xiao Hei eat it, yes, no Carefully drop it."

Qin Yang raised his eyebrows noncommittally, and gave Jiang Yu some food in a good mood.

Seeing that the other party didn't blame him, Jiang Yu felt relieved. After a few mouthfuls of food, he picked up another piece of cabbage and deliberately brought it to his mouth slowly. Then, when he let go, the cabbage fell to the ground again, and Xiao Hei immediately took a bite of it happily. He took the cabbage.

"Little fool, I found you wasting food! Are you afraid that you will be hacked by Lei Gonggong for wasting food?" Qin Feng threatened jokingly.

Sure enough, Jiang Yu was so frightened that he trembled, and murmured: "Well, then I won't, I won't waste it, Qin Feng, tell Eunuch Lei not to hit me."

Qin Feng said triumphantly: "Then you have to listen to me from now on, otherwise Eunuch Lei will kill you."

Jiang Yu hesitated and said: "Well, then I will listen to you from now on..."

"Haha!" Qin Feng smiled triumphantly, "You're so good, then you wash the dishes first after eating."

Jiang Yu nodded honestly, and looked at Xiao Hei with a troubled face, he didn't dare to add any more food to Xiao Hei.

Qin Yang said lightly: "Qin Feng frightened you, but next time don't feed the dog while eating, there is no rule, wait until the meal is over before feeding it."

"Huh?" Jiang Yu tilted his head in confusion, and it took a while to understand what it meant, so he said solemnly: "Qin Feng is, he is a big liar, and he will have his tongue cut off for lying... You, you have to be careful with white hair Granny Oh."

The white-haired old woman is a story circulated by adults to frighten children, saying that those who lie and deceive will be cut off by the old woman's tongue, and her toes and fingers will be gnawed on her back. Qin Feng was obviously also frightened by his mother since he was a child.

Qin Feng's face turned pale, and he resentfully said, "I'm not lying, little fool, don't talk nonsense."

"Obviously there is, you, you obviously lied to me..."

"no!"

"Yes, yes."

"No."

"You, you have."

Qin Feng: "..."

Qin Yang opened his mouth to help Qin Feng out of the siege: "Don't talk while eating."

Jiang Yu Qin Feng immediately ate obediently and stopped talking.

After breakfast, Qin Yang moved the table and put it in the shed, and moved Qin's father to the yard. The four of them sat around and wrote the burden according to what Qin's father said.

To write a burden, it is necessary to write the names and taboos of the ancestors on the burden, so that the ancestors can receive the money accurately when burning it to the ancestors.

Qin Yang just took the brush to write the burden, while Jiang Yu and Qin Feng sat on the side and followed Qin's father's instructions to make the burden.

The sun was very hot in the yard, and a few people sat in the shed, slapping the mosquitoes on their arms and ankles from time to time.

Jiang Yu seriously picked up a bundle of burnt paper, carefully stuffed it into the bundle, sealed it, and put it aside, watching with satisfaction that he had wrapped two bundles for a long time, and Qin Feng had already wrapped ten bundles. There are many.

"Little fool, this bag is too thick, and there is not enough burning paper, please put less."

Jiang Yu pursed his lips, took the bundle and unwrapped it, and divided most of it out.

After a few breaths.

"Little fool, why did you only pack more than ten sheets!"

Jiang Yu frowned lightly, then took the thin burden apart, and put some burnt paper in it.

"Little fool..."

Jiang Yu frowned and complained: "Qin Feng, yes, why don't you tell me how many you want, and I'll count them..."

Before Qin Feng could answer, Qin Yang patiently said: "Counting is troublesome, you can put as much as you want, the ancestors won't mind."

Jiang Yu smiled silly at Qin Yang, nodded obediently, but began to imitate Qin Feng's gestures, seeing how much the other party took, and he also took as much.

Grandma Qin and Grandpa Qin also moved the table outside to write burdens and burdens. Qin Lei and Qin Xin watched from the side. The two children chattered around the two old people, and Grandma Qin would laugh and scold them happily. , let them not make trouble.

Every Chinese New Year, Qin Weiguo's family lives with the two old people. When Qin Yang didn't come back, Qin Feng could only help with things but had no holidays, because when it was time for dinner, Grandma Qin would ask Qin Feng to take the food to her home eat.

The two families in this yard don't regard Qin Yang's family as their relatives at all.

In the evening, the dinner dishes are very rich. Qin Feng fried the lean meat and eggs that had been offered to his ancestors for three days with green peppers and made a plate, and then added some spicy cabbage and pickled Qin Yang to make a sample of sauerkraut boiled for Zhang Wei to taste. I ordered a sauerkraut and potato soup, which made Jiang Yu's stomach full.

After dinner, Qin Yang went to get a basket to pack the wrapped burdens, while Qin Feng and Jiang Yu stood in front of the altar, coveting the tribute for a long time.

"Jiang Yu, you eat something quietly, my brother won't blame you." Qin Feng encouraged Jiang Yu to eat some fruit.

Jiang Yu smacked his mouth and said hesitantly: "No, you can't take it, Qin Feng, you can't take it either, Qin Yang said that the ancestors haven't left yet, and they can't eat until they are all gone. Otherwise, the ancestors will not protect, bless me..."

"Ok."

Qin Yang shouted from the side; "Jiang Yu, go get your boat and get ready to go."

"Okay!" Jiang Yuyou forgot to eat when he was playing, and ran out of the yard to get a pumpkin lantern from the next room.

"Qin Feng, are you going?"

Qin Feng immediately stood up and said excitedly: "Go!"

"Go and help me get a handful of incense and light it." Qin Yang said and looked at Qin's father, "It's okay for you to be alone at home."

Father Qin smiled kindly and said: "No problem, you three go, and help me talk to my ancestors while burning the paper, so that they can keep our family safe."

As soon as these words came out, Qin Yang immediately felt that the taste of home was stronger. As expected, there must be an elder in the family.

They carried baskets on their backs and pumpkins in their arms, while Qin Feng held a handful of lit incense sticks in his hand, and walked in front while inserting incense sticks to guide the ancestors.

There were a lot of people going out at this time, and everyone happily walked out of the village with their pumpkin lanterns in their arms. They also met Ma Tao's family and Wang Qiang's family, so the three families walked together, talking and laughing towards the river. side walk.

When we arrived at the river where a few people hung clam shells before, countless people had already gathered on the river bank, some of them were even setting off jack-o-lanterns. Build it into a rhombus-shaped tower-like column, leave a hole in the middle, and later stuff scattered burning paper into it to ignite.

There is also particularity in burning the burden. Everyone likes to build the burden high, which means that the ancestors can bless the younger generations to prosper.

The three families began to look for a place to build their burdens. Jiang Yu was dragged by the excited Qin Feng to watch the lights being put on. Qin Yang was left to do things alone. Over there, Wang Qiang and Ma Tao were not interested in doing their own things, so they came to help Qin Yang builds up and asks Qin Yang to brag.

Wang Qiang helped Qin Yang take out the burden from the back basket, while Ma Tao went to help Qin Yang find a wooden stick to support the chassis so that it could be burned from the beginning to the end.

"Qin Yang, I heard that you made a fortune with that fellow Yang Yue with Ma Tao, you can also bring me with you sometime." Wang Qiang squinted his eyes and said lightly, but in fact he was quite nervous , After all, it is a matter of making money, who wants to share the profit with others.

Qin Yang said happily: "Okay, but I don't have time this time, the field is going to be busy."

"That's right, I have to defend the ground." Wang Qiang suddenly realized, and said regretfully.

Every July and August, when the vegetables and crops in Zhengzheng are ripe, wild boars will always come to the mountains to spoil the food. In the past few years, when the fields were not divided into households, even thieves would steal the crops, and there are still people stealing them now. The phenomenon of crops in the field, so at this time of year, everyone will go to the field to guard the crops for a period of time.

Wang Qiang's family is naturally inevitable, after all, his family's land is all corn.

"We'll talk about it after the crops are harvested and planted." Qin Yang piled up the burden seriously, while looking up to find Jiang Yu and Qin Feng's figure. The two were standing peacefully by the river watching others put up lanterns.

"Okay, when the time comes, you need help when you have a way, and I will be there whenever you call!" Wang Qiang said boldly, then thought of another thing, and hurriedly said: "By the way, is your land the same as Wang Laoer's? A few yuan, it seems to be quite close to my house."

Qin Yang nodded, and asked, "Is your family's land also at the foot of the mountain?"

Wang Qiang said with a smile: "Isn't it? If it's not the time, let's form a partnership. We can just build one shed. It's too laborious to set up two. Let's live together."

Qin Yang thought for a while and said, "Yes, but the building needs to be bigger, and Jiang Yu probably has to follow."

Wang Qiang laughed, and said with some incomprehension: "It's that little fool again, you take him with you wherever you go, it doesn't bother you, why bother to be so serious about him, if his parents come back to ask for someone later, your efforts are not in vain gone."

Qin Yang paused, and then said: "His parents are really coming, if Jiang Yu is willing to follow them, I naturally have to respect his idea, I never thought that taking care of him is for the benefit of him .”

Wang Qiang rubbed his nose in embarrassment and didn't say anything else. Ma Tao just happened to come back with two firewood and complained, "Almost all the firewood around here has been picked up. If I had known, I would have brought some firewood from home."

Wang Qiang said: "Two sticks are enough, stuff them down."

The three of them started to get together to make burdens.

After more than ten minutes, Qin Yang's burden began to burn.

At this time, Jiang Yu ran over to Qin Yang with a pumpkin in his arms, grabbed Qin Yang's hand and said, "Qin Yang, Qin Yang, what are we going to do, when are we going to light the lights?"

Qin Yang patted Jiang Yu's head and said, "Wait until the burden is burnt before going."

Wang Qiang said at the right time: "You go, Ma Tao and I will guard for you."

Qin Yang raised his eyebrows and asked, "Aren't you going?"

"What are you going to do? I didn't make lights this year."

Qin Yang said with a smile: "Then you help me watch for a while, it's best to talk to my ancestors again, let them bless me and lead you to make a fortune."

Ma Tao and Wang Qiang burst out laughing, obviously agreeing with Qin Yang's proposal.

There are countless jack-o-lanterns with candles floating in the river. Children and adults gather around the river bank, and some even carry bamboo poles to push their jack-o-lanterns towards the center of the river.

This jack-o-lantern was used as a boat for the ancestors. Let the ancestors sit in the lantern, light candles on the lantern, put the boat into a river, and let the lantern float along the water, carrying people's beliefs and respect. The ancestors went back along the river.

Qin Yang took Jiang Yu to find a place with few people, and dripped wax liquid into the jack-o-lantern to stabilize the candles, because the river bank was relatively high from the river, so Jiang Yu quickly lay down on the grass, hugged the jack-o-lantern and was about to Put it in the water.

"You can't reach it, let me come." Qin Yang patted Jiang Yu's back to take over the lamp from his hand.

"Yes, yes." Jiang Yu looked at Qin Yang and said, "Yes, or you can pull me, okay?"

Qin Yang hummed, grabbed Jiang Yu's clothes on the back, and asked Jiang Yu to shrink down to put the lamp.

After putting the gourd lantern into the water, Qin Yang immediately pulled Qin Yang up.

Jiang Yu threw himself into Qin Yang's arms with all his strength, and threw him down on the grass. Jiang Yu smiled excitedly: "It's fun...Qin Yang, let's get the gourd lantern up again and put it on again, okay?" .”

Qin Yang couldn't help rubbing Jiang Yu's head, "No, get up and sit down."

Jiang Yu pursed his lips, smiled obediently and said, "It's very comfortable to lie on my stomach, I don't want to sit up..." After speaking, he simply leaned his head on Qin Yang's shoulder and rubbed it back and forth.

Qin Yang couldn't help it. Looking at the people around him, he felt that it was indecent for the two of them to lie down like this, so he had to sit up holding Jiang Yu and look at the gourd lanterns floating in the river. Feeling the lively and familiar atmosphere, he thought of Wang Qiang just now. What he said, he couldn't help but gradually lost his mind.

If Jiang Yu's parents really come back, and Jiang Yu is willing to go with them, can he really be as calm and willing as he said just now?

No, his parents should not come back, Qin Yang frowned slightly, thinking so.
