happy farming

This winter, Taolin Village is still covered with snow.

Today is the third day of the first lunar month, and it is also the day for the Song family to entertain guests.In the early morning, when the sky was still slightly bright, the door of Song's courtyard was opened.Su Luo stood at the door and shrank his neck, saying, "Qiu Rong, I'm going out."

"Wait." Qiu Rong ran out of the house in a hurry, holding a sleeve in his hand.

Su Luo turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"

As Qiu Rong said, he stuffed the sleeves into Su Luo's hands, "Put this on, it will keep your hands warm."

Su Luo said with a smile, "This guy likes to use things, what do you do for me. Besides, I'm just going to Uncle Baihua's house, and I'll be back soon."

Qiu Rong frowned, and replied perfunctorily, "Well, I know. You go, be careful on the road."

Su Luo smiled, then turned and went out.

When Qiu Rong returned to the room, Song Lin also came out from the back room, covered his mouth and yawned, and greeted vaguely, "Qiu Rong, good morning."

"Brother, why did you wake up so early? Didn't you agree that you don't care about anything today?" Qiu Rong was a little surprised.

Song Lin lowered his head and straightened the cotton-padded jacket on his bed, and said with a smile, "Then you are not so tired that you lie down, and Su Luo will not scold me to death."

Qiu Rong blushed, and said falteringly, "Is there any help, how can I get down tired. Uh, second brother, are they awake?"

"No, they're still sleeping. What do you want for breakfast?" After speaking, Song Lin walked into the kitchen.

Qiu Rong sat in front of the stove and lit the firewood, "We'll start preparing dishes later, so let's eat whatever we want."

Song Lin responded, cleaned the pot, scooped two ladles of clean water into it, dug out a bowl of rice from the rice tank, washed it, poured it in, and asked Qiu Rong to light the small stove and give Su Qingwen the medicine.

Every year after the Chinese New Year in Taolin Village, every household has a custom to invite relatives and friends to play at home, which is also called hospitality.However, although the Song family and the Su family have no relatives, this custom is still necessary.In addition, Su Qing's godfather Xie Nanjin also kept saying that he wanted to come to Song's house, so Song Lin discussed with Su Qing and decided to entertain guests at home on the third day of the first lunar month every year.Su Qing didn't specifically tell anyone about this, and the Li family didn't know about it, and they probably wouldn't come even if they knew, so they just asked Bai Hua to accompany Su Luo back to pay homage to the ancestors of the Li family.

Yan Yuran and the others had been clamoring to come and play, and when Su Luo went to say that his house was going to entertain guests in the third year of junior high school, Yan Yuran immediately agreed happily, and said that the whole family would come together.

Song Lin thought about it, Yan Yuran, Nianyue, Qi Shi, and Yan Yuran's father, so there would be five people, plus Xie Nanjin and Yan Guiping's family, about ten people would come to the city.Finally, adding Zhao Shi and the others and Bai Hua's family, it is estimated that there will be two tables.

"Brother, what are you thinking?" Qiu Rong asked when Song Lin was in a daze.

Song Lin sighed, "We are counting how many people will come, so we can see how many dishes are suitable."

Qiu Rong stood up with a smile, took out a pile of lettuce and put it on the ground, picked up a knife and began to peel it, and said, "I told you to leave it alone, but you still don't believe it. I already counted it yesterday, plus we have a total of 19 people, if you count the big bags, there will be 20 people."

"It's so many..." Song Lin sighed sincerely. Except when he and Su Qing were married, there had never been so many people in the house at one go. He was not used to so many people coming all at once.

"Haha, yes. But I have already thought about what to cook, so don't worry about it."

Song Lin nodded, smiled, and said shamelessly, "Hey, it's really the best thing, you will always love me so much."

"If Momo sees you like this, he will laugh and scold you again." Qiu Rong shook his head helplessly. The eldest brother of his family is also a man of Ahmao, and he is not young at all. It really hasn't changed, it's been that way all these years, very casual.It seems that except for the second brother's matter, which can keep him frowning, the rest are all random in his eyes.

Song Lin smiled nonchalantly, "I don't want to part with you. From childhood to adulthood, only you, Brother Bai Xun, were scolded, and I always laughed on the sidelines."

When Bai Xun was mentioned, Qiu Rong was taken aback, "Brother, Liu Qian and Bai Chufan will also come."

Perhaps Liu Qian deliberately avoided Song Lin. After the Houshan incident, Song Lin never saw Liu Qian again. This time he came to bring Chufan to the Song family. Song Lin was naturally happy and said with a smile, "Here we are." Well, I haven't seen Chufan for a long time, I miss you."

When he was young, he didn't know much about the affairs between Bai Xun, Song Lin and Su Qing, but as he grew up, he more or less understood everything about the three of them.Originally, he was a little worried that Song Lin would feel awkward, but now he didn't care about it, and he was embarrassed to expose the scar again, so he murmured, "Uh...here, as long as you think it's okay."

Song Lin brought a stool and sat beside Qiu Rong. He also picked up a piece of lettuce and said slowly, "Qiu Rong, do you know? Actually, I really don't want to talk about this matter with anyone. I The matter with Bai Xun is old and old. You really don't need to think about it. Bai Xun is gentle and treats me very well. I admit that I once thought he was really good, even Selfishly think that if you have to choose, he is also good. However, it is not the love between lovers. I like him, just like my younger brother likes to rely on his elder brother. Maybe he has never understood why we have come to this situation Hmm... I think it's probably at an ignorant age, and I did and said some ignorant things. If anyone owes someone, it's me, Song Lin, who owes him. Just like this life, I thought I wouldn't Like anyone, but I was still wrong, people make mistakes."

Speaking of this, Song Lin paused for a moment, and said with a smile, "It's four words, there is no destiny. I think it's good now, and don't bring up these things again in the future. Your second brother also said last night, wait for Su When Luo was 16 years old, I gave you rabbits to make for yourself, and now I know a little bit, and you have also learned it, so we can rest assured."

Qiu Rong paused, frowned and said earnestly, "Why does this sound a bit awkward to me? Are you going to drive me and Su Luo out to live?"

Song Lin chuckled, "What are you thinking about, you little head. How is this possible? We are still waiting for you to retire. Your second brother means, now I have to carry a big bag, and I don't have time to do other things, understand Yet?"

Qiu Rong then nodded knowingly, "That's good, otherwise we will definitely not agree."

The two chatted for a while, and Song Lin suddenly remembered that Yan Nianyue liked to eat hairy chestnuts, so he asked, "By the way, where did we put the wild hairy chestnuts we picked last time?"

Qiu Rong turned around and added some firewood to the stove, and said, "What are you looking for in that pile of wet sand in the corner?"

"Nianyue likes to eat it. I'll get it out. When it's cooked, I'll make roasted chicken with chestnuts. I'll save some for snacks." Song Lin clapped his hands, took the wooden basin to the corner of the wall, and slowly threw away the sand. Start to pick carefully, throw the broken ones aside, and put the good ones in the tub.

"Brother, the medicine is ready." Qiu Rong reminded.

Song Lin blinked, looked at the chestnuts on the ground, and then at the back room, and said, "Oh, then I'll see if Qing'er is awake, otherwise the longer it is, the more bitter it will be, and Qing'er will find a reason not to eat it. "

Qiu Rong came over and said helplessly, "You go, I'll get this. The meal is almost ready, let's eat after the second brother finishes taking the medicine."

Song Lin chuckled, "Hey, Qiu Rong has grown up and started to dislike big brother."

Qiu Rong glanced at him, then bent him with his elbow, "Yes, yes, I despise you, go to the side quickly."

Song Lin smiled, washed his hands and entered the room.

When he entered the room, he saw that Su Qing and Su Dabao had already woken up, and Su Qing was teasing Su Dabao with his body sideways.

Song Lin deliberately bowed his head and walked to the bed, "Qing'er, get up when you wake up, the medicine is ready."

Su Qing lowered her eyes, didn't look at him, but said lightly, "Brother, I won't drink."

Song Lin tilted his head, sighed, and looked at Su Dabao with his black eyes rolling around, "If you don't drink, don't drink. Anyway, that's it, it's up to you."

Su Qing finally noticed that something was wrong with this person, looked up at him and asked, "What's wrong?"

Song Lin shook his head, "It's okay, it's just that my hands hurt a little."

hand?pain?Su Qing raised her eyebrows, "What happened to your hand?"

Song Lin leaned over to pick up Da Bao, gently squeezed Da Bao's chubby face with his hands, and said sadly, "Da Bao blows to Ah Mo, that medicine jar is so hot, look at Ah Mo's hands are all red , it hurts."

The corner of Su Qing's mouth twitched, and he sat up, "I'm up, go get the medicine."

Song Lin nodded with a smile, put Su Dabao back in the shaker, and ran out to fetch the medicine himself.

Su Qing rubbed his forehead, he was almost in good health, but Song Lin insisted on following the doctor's instructions, forcing him to drink all the medicines sooner or later, otherwise he would always have a bitter face, and would not give up. It's not that he can say Su Qing, he still depends on Su Qing in everything, but that day he didn't smile and didn't pay much attention to Su Qing.

There are visitors at home today, so Su Qing naturally needs to leave the house. Song Lin rummaged through the boxes and found a set of cotton jackets that Su Qing liked, and handed them to him. Put on the big bag.

As for why it is not red, because for some reason Su Dabao himself seems to hate red very much, every time he sees something red, he will cry for no reason.

But now Su Dabao is almost half a year old, and the person he likes the most is his father Su Qing.Every time I stay with Su Qing, I never cry, and when I have nothing to do, I will take the initiative to grin to make Su Qing happy, which makes Song Lin almost die of jealousy.

Thinking that he wanted to make Su Dabao laugh once, he thought of all kinds of tricks, pretending to be a clown, cute, and pitiful, but Su Dabao just didn't give him face, he would pull the corners of his mouth when he was happy, and just flirtatious when he was not happy He glanced at Song Lin, then closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Song Lin was speechless about this.

After breakfast, people came to the house one after another.Yan Nianyue not only bought a lot of toys, but also sealed a big red envelope for Su Dabao. Su Dabao held the red paper in his small hands, blinked, blinked again, and really burst into tears.

This cry was not good, and it made everyone anxious again.

Zhao Shi hurried over from the kitchen, hugged Su Dabao, and cursed at a room full of young people.When Su Dabao stopped, Zhao Shi frowned and thought about it for a long time, saying that he had to go to the back mountain to burn incense another day, maybe it was Song Lin who saw too much blood that day that affected Su Dabao.

Song Lin's face turned black when he was listening, and Yan Nianyue secretly pinched Su Dabao's buttocks, but because the clothes were too thick, he couldn't pinch the flesh, so Su Dabao didn't seem to feel it, and continued to suck. Fingers watched everyone being scolded.Su Qing and Yan Yuran laughed lightly, while Xie Nanjin and Qi Shi Bai Lianqi laughed loudly outside the house.

After a while, the sound of a carriage came from outside the yard, and Bai Xun arrived with Liu Qian.

When my family met, it was inevitable that there would be another round of greetings. After the greetings, we went into the back room together.The three-year-old Bai Chufan is a good-looking boy, not like the chubby Bai Xun when he was a child, but rather like Liu Qian.

Bai Chufan is very obedient, after calling the people in the house one by one, he moved the small bench by himself, sat quietly beside the rocking bed, blinked and said, "What the hell, let my brother in, Fan'er shakes it." He's sleeping."

Zhao Shi smiled lovingly, put Su Dabao in, and asked Bai Chufan what he had done recently, and whether he behaved or not.Bai Chufan answered obediently, and finally said that he missed Zhao Shi very much, which made Zhao Shi narrow his eyes with a smile.

After Zhao Shi went out, there was only a room full of young people left in the room.

The three of Su Qing and the others were sitting at the desk chatting. Song Lin looked at it and said, "Nianyue, you have some dry goods in your house, you can take them out, and there are boiled chestnuts in the kitchen, you and Liu Qian like it yourself. Take what you eat, and I will help them cook."

After the first dish was cooked, Su Luo also came back, and Bai Hua and his family were also wearing new clothes, all smiling.After the winter, Bai Dong'er met a boy from the next village, and both of them met their father, and they got married after the beginning of spring.

When people are in good spirits on happy occasions, as soon as Bai Dong'er sees Yan Nianyue and the others, she drags them to play in the yard to build a snowman, and Su Luo also joins in since she has nothing to do.

Later, I don't know who started it first. At first, it was piled up well, and then several people had a snowball fight in the yard.Until the dishes were served, Zhao Shi urged them several times, and several people went into the room to wash their hands and eat.

Yan Nianyue was at the end, Yan Yuran walked over slowly, with a doting look in his eyes, he whispered, "Why do you keep beating him?"

Yan Nianyue snorted softly, and said sloppy-eyed, "Do I have it? Am I such a narrow-minded person? Besides, when it comes to playing, who can see who? That bastard Su Luo keeps hitting me. "

Yan Yuran shook his head, "You..."

Yan Nianyue chuckled, "Let's go, I'm hungry."

At noon, Su Qing also left the house, while Song Lin was sitting next to him with a big bag, and the meal was lively.

After dinner, Bai Lianqi and the others played long cards in the main room, while Su Qing and the others went back to the room to chat.

After a busy day, Song Lin was so tired that his waist was sore and his legs were weak. Now he lay on the bed, took a long breath of relief, and said, "I'm really tired. Next year, the bag will be bigger. It will be easier if I don't need someone to carry it."

Su Qing smiled lowly, "Well, if you feel tired, just stop doing it in the future."

Song Lin shook his head hastily, "No, it's good, it's great for everyone to get together."

Su Qing covered the quilt for him, and said softly, "Brother, today I made an agreement with Yu Ran that we will build a tomb for them in the back mountain after the beginning of spring."

Song Lin was taken aback, and turned to hug him, "Well, good, so they are finally counted together. So many hurts and pains, let's bury them together."

The corner of Su Qing's mouth curled up, and he whispered something in his ear.

Song Lin stared wide-eyed, and refused with a weird expression, "Your body is better, it doesn't suit you, don't think about it, let's go to bed. Also, I will get up at night to change Dabao's diaper, so don't secretly..."

Su Qing smiled softly, without waiting for his consent, she got up and sealed the mouth that was still chattering.

The house is as warm as spring, and it is destined to be a spring tonight.
