Deep in the bamboo forest is my home

My son-in-law's idea is so clear in his heart.At other times, Jia Xing'er didn't need to hint or wink, because the only little grandson must be the first to speak out.But things are different now.

The two sons, Yang Dashi and Yang Yan'er, are more than honest, but not astute. They rub their chests too much, and their shrewdness falls on Yang Dahe.At a young age, he can speak well, and he is more accurate in trying to figure out other people's thoughts.If He Xiaohua was honest, the marriage would be fine.It's a pity that He Xiaohua is smart and has ideas.When two smart people walk together, it is good to be in love with each other. If both parties are not satisfied, there will be no peace in the family after marriage.

Yang Dahe obviously doesn't like He Xiaohua.And He Xiaohua might not look down on Dahe either.Forget it, while Taimo was thinking, he grabbed Yang Dahe's hand that was squeezing his shoulder, "Tell me the truth, do you have a favorite brother?"

Yang Dahe rolled his eyes twice, "What the hell, it's too late. I don't want to lay down a career first, and then ask for my brother." The current brothers, even if they are God-sent, come from the countryside Yes, Yang Dahe was very worried.

Tai Meme glanced at her little grandson, "Be careful."

Yang Dahe didn't dare to fool his family's ancestors, the old man was very smart.Immediately smiled flatteringly, and his subordinates added [-]% more strength, "It's too bad, what else is uncomfortable?"

On the other side, Boss He led his family back to Nanhe Village.During the Chinese New Year, there are many things at home.On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the family stayed at home to rest for a day.On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, welcome to Mr. Zao.In the evening, Yang Yan'er set up a long table in the yard. On the table was a plate of fruits picked from the bamboo mountain, a plate of whole chicken, a plate of sweet steamed buns, and three glasses of water and wine. After setting up the incense table, the whole family knelt and kowtowed.

Yang Yan'er muttered something: "God bless you, the house is safe, and everyone has a happy life. Please count the number of people, a family of six, and worship the god." After finishing speaking, she kowtowed three times.

Brother He Xiaozhu knelt at the back, saw Yang Yan'er kowtow, and kowtowed too.After the ceremony was completed, the water and wine were sprinkled on the ground, and the golden clothes were burned to send to Master Zaojun. He Boss and He Xiaozhu set off a string of big firecrackers to show their respect to the god.

For dinner on the fourth day of junior high school, we don’t cook fresh dishes. We put together the leftover meals from the previous few days and cook them in water.He Xiaohua saw that Yang Yan'er mixed all kinds of vegetables in one pot, the red ones and the green ones didn't look the same, so she hurried up to grab the job.Separate everything. For winter vegetables, the He family only has fresh Shaowei vegetables. This is easy to handle. Take a big wooden basin, put the vegetable leaves on the bottom layer, and spread two layers, and then the chicken internal organs, scattered on the leaves , and then up is the chicken, surrounded by vegetable leaves, forming a small circle.The He family's New Year's meals are simple, the most in the family are chicken, eggs and Shaowei vegetables, so He Xiaohua didn't spend much effort, just arranging the things nicely.

Boil it in water, and heat the sweet buns in a small stove.This kind of sweet steamed bun is ground into powder with coarse grains, mixed with water and made into dough, put it for a day, then pinch out a piece, dig a hole in the middle with your fingers, and add prepared sweet fillings in it.The sweet steamed buns were made a few years ago, and they taste like steamed buns from the past.There are many choices of fillings. The sweet buns eaten at Shen Momo’s house have light yellow fillings, those eaten at Jia Xing’er’s have dark fillings, and Yang Yaner’s own fillings are light pink. No matter what kind of filling, the taste is the same, sweet, very sweet.

Yang Yan'er led her two sons to tidy up the house inside and out, and offered incense to the ancestors.

On the fifth day of the new year, the fifth day of the lunar new year, the family stays at home to make dumplings and eat them.After five days, everything is inappropriate, and the family members are not allowed to go out, let alone visit.But on this day, the gate of the courtyard must be open, and it cannot be closed from the early morning until the early morning of the sixth day of the new year.It is said that the gods in the sky look at the people under their jurisdiction. If any house is closed, the gods think that there is no one, so they will no longer take care of this house that year.

The job of making dumplings is the same no matter where, He Xiaohua makes it very smoothly, Yang Yan'er and the dough, knead into a small piece, press it into a round shape, put it aside, the filling is minced meat with chive leaves.Chive leaves were a gift from Jia Xinger on the second day of junior high school. Besides the chive leaves, there were also two dried salted fish pickled by herself.

He Xiaohua picked up a piece of noodle cake, scooped out the thumb-sized filling with a spoon in one hand, stuffed it, pinched it, and pinched four frilly edges neatly.He Xiaohu also made dumplings. He held the dough cake in his hand, dug a spoon full with the other hand, and stuffed it in. The dough cake couldn't cover it, the left side was wrapped in, the right side protruded, the right side was pressed down, and a small tail fell out from the left side.In a fit of rage, He Xiaohu took another piece of bread and covered it up. It was done. It was completely wrapped, but it was not a dumpling, it looked like a bun with a round belly. It stood abruptly among a large group of dumplings wearing beautiful pleated skirts. How conspicuous it is.

Yang Yan'er looked at it dumbfounded, and told Xiaohu not to spoil the dough he worked so hard to make.However, He Xiaohu met the noodles, and he wanted to make a beautiful dumpling like Xiaohua Bao, otherwise he would not give up.

Boss He and He Xiaozhu, who thought he was already an adult, picked up a branch and drew on the ground, discussing how to build the house, how many rooms to prepare, what materials to buy, who to ask for help in the village, how many days to build, etc.

He Xiaosi obediently sat on the table, blinking his eyes to see his brothers making dumplings, his little mouth opened one by one, and the saliva dripped down.

He Xiaohua took a look at the picture drawn by He Boss and He Xiaozhu, good guy, it's fully twice the size of the original one.The old house will not be demolished, it will be kept, and a row of three houses will be built ten meters behind, and the two rows of houses in the front and back will be connected together with a fence. The room where Xiaozhu and Xiaohu used to live is converted into a kitchen.Fortunately, the He family's house was built at the foot of the mountain, and there were few people living nearby, leaving a large space in front and back of the house.This expansion of the He family does not need to worry about problems such as being connected to other courtyard walls.

He Xiaohua quickly reached out her hand, "I want the kitchen."

Yang Yan'er smiled and said, "You are indispensable for the kitchen work."

"I want the old kitchen. There are too few chicken coops now. It needs to be bigger."

Speaking of raising chickens, Boss He thought about sending chickens to the restaurant on the first ten days, "Xiao Hua, send chickens once every 15 days. Are there enough chickens in our family? It takes at least four months for the chickens to grow up and be able to be eaten and slaughtered. I There are only about sixty chickens at home..." In fact, He's family already raises the most chickens in Nanhe Village. There are about sixty hens, roosters and chicks. Look in front of the door.But according to He Xiaohua's request to Mu Shaodong, these sixty chickens are far from enough.

He Xiaohua was stunned for a moment, she was only thinking about the money, but she didn't think that her chicken farm had the ability.He Xiaohua bit her lip, thought and thought, "Why don't we talk to Mu Shaodong again on the tenth day of the Lunar New Year."

Yang Yan'er was dissatisfied, "Brother can just stay at home and do things, talk about business, see that the shopkeeper is made by men, what are you going to do?"

He Xiaohua kicked Xiaohu under the table, and Xiaohu swayed, "Ah, the chickens at home are taken care of by Xiaohua, he knows how many chickens our family can exchange for money every month. Ah, let Xiaohua go. "

"He knew clearly that he wouldn't just agree to another family's Shaodong." Yang Yan'er was still not happy about He Xiaohua's self-assessment, but she didn't say no to letting Xiaohua go.

Seeing that the family had no other opinions, Boss He made a final decision and gave He Xiaohua the right to use the old kitchen, letting him slowly consider how to remodel it.

The family happily ate the dumplings on the fifth day, and came to the sixth day in a blink of an eye.

On the sixth day of the lunar new year, businessmen open the market, officials work for half a day, students and civilians leave their homes one after another to visit friends.Yang Yan'er picked up Xiao Si, pulled Xiao Hua, beamed and went to other houses to visit and say some congratulations.In the afternoon, the sun shone on the body, and it was so warm that the adults and children in the village gathered under the big tree to chat.During the Chinese New Year, all they talked about was festive talk, and somehow they talked about the boy from the Liang family.

What can I say, the boy from the Liang family came back on the night of New Year's Eve.I came back with Liang Momo.

An uncle said that during the Chinese New Year, the door of the Liang family had never been opened except on the day of welcoming the gods, so it must be something.

A person who is somewhat related to Pan Lian lowered his voice and said mysteriously, this boy from the Liang family committed a crime this year, and the Liang family was very worried about him. My life was lost.

Someone asked curiously, where did the Liang family boy get hurt?

Wherever it can hurt, it will break a few pieces of skin and bleed a few drops of blood.Some people say it very disdainfully.

Immediately there was another retort, where there were a few drops of blood, the whole clothes were stained red.

A group of me, uncle, you say, I say, they all said the gossip they thought was correct.Yang Yan'er could hear her heart go up and down, she covered her mouth from time to time, and asked with wide eyes, really?

He Xiaohua hid behind Yang Yan'er's buttocks, dozing off from hearing it.He wanted to go home and have a good night's sleep, but he was afraid that Yang Yan'er would be dragging him and he couldn't run, so he could only lean on Yang Yan'er's back and move his little head little by little.

A little brother in the village asked Xiaohua to play with throwing handkerchiefs and picking flower ropes. He Xiaohua held her eyelids and dealt with it twice, but she was so bored by the children's games that she was about to fall asleep.Seeing that Yang Yan'er didn't intend to go home at all, He Xiaohua simply taught the children to play with the traffic lights and not to move.

The little brother asked why the red light should stand up straight, don't move, and the green light should run, why can't it be reversed?

He Xiaohua twitched the corners of her mouth, and said, "There are so many reasons, are you playing or not? If you don't play, you will fall down."

It is rare for a group of children to have a new game. Seeing that it was a gift from heaven, the boys wanted to play, so they ran over after practice, jumping and jumping, having fun.

He Xiaohua acted as the person who shouted the order twice, "One, two, three, the traffic light, the red light is on, don't move." She turned around abruptly.The dolls posed in various exaggerated poses and stopped in place, standing on one foot, with their legs spread wide, turning around to run.He Xiaohua checked them one by one, and whoever turned his waist secretly and turned his head was immediately caught and smeared the juice from the grass leaves on his face.But after a while, five or six little brothers were caught, their little faces painted green.The little buddies were unhappy and clamored for a replacement, He Xiaohua was immediately given up the position where the order was called, and she was happy to stay on the sidelines as a supervisor.

A large group of children ran over and over again.He Xiaohua suddenly noticed that the boy who was following Liang Qi quietly hid aside, looking enviously at the children playing.

He Xiaohua walked over slowly, and slapped the boy on the shoulder, "Are you the boy with Liang Qi?"

Xiao Liu was taken aback suddenly, turned around and saw that it was the younger brother of the He family, and said, "Well, I am my Xiao Liu."

"Xiao Liu, has Liang Qi returned to the village?" He Xiaohua moved closer to Xiao Liu, the boy spoke too softly, I couldn't hear clearly unless he got closer.

"Ah?" Xiao Liu shrank back, "Young master, the young master is back. Fu Lang said that the young master can't blow the wind, so he won't let the young master go out."

"Then what are you still doing here? Not with your young master?"

"The young master said that he wanted me to come and see you. Ah..." Xiao Liu covered his mouth, realizing that he had said something he shouldn't have said, but it was too late, and He Xiaohua looked at him strangely.

"Come see what I'm doing? I'll do it well and let him take care of himself."

Xiao Liu immediately nodded desperately, "I, I'll go back to the young master right now." Turned around and ran away.

He Xiaohua thought, Xiao Liu wasn't worried at all, it seems that Liang Qi's injury shouldn't be a problem.But it's strange, for no reason, how to let Xiao Liu come to see him.He Xiaohua looked at her arms and legs, and took a good look.Turn around and forget about it.

Boss He and He Xiaozhu also took advantage of the good weather to drop by.The ground cannot be broken in the first month, but it does not prevent them from finding familiar villagers to make an appointment to come and help build the house.Whoever builds a house in the village can find a few acquaintances and provide two meals a day, and it can be built in half a month.Shen Memo heard that the He family was going to build a house, so she came to inquire about the news, and knowing that she was going to move the place for Xiao Zhu to get married, she immediately went back with a smile.After a while, Yang Li's father, the boss of the Yang family, ran over to help with advice.

From the sixth day to the fifteenth day of the new year, the days are the most leisurely. You don't have to go to the fields to work, and you wake up to visit relatives, and the days pass slowly.On the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, Boss He kept in mind the agreement with the restaurant, borrowed a donkey cart from Li Gensheng's family, put a tied rooster and a sunflower basket of eggs on the cart, carried Xiao Hua into the cart, and sat in front of the cart to drive the donkey.

For Chinese New Year, no one wants to run to the county town at this time. On the trail leading to the county town, Boss He is alone driving a donkey cart.He Xiaohua hugged the sunflower basket and followed the donkey cart. Sleepy people ran out one after another, squinted their eyes and rested for a while, and suddenly Boss He in front spoke.

"Oh, this, isn't this Dong Mu's house?"

He Xiaohua opened her eyes suddenly, and saw two handsome horses running towards the donkey cart, one of them, dressed in white, was none other than Young Master Mu, the owner of the restaurant.

Boss He jumped off the donkey cart and pulled it aside, trying to make way for Mu Dong's family.

Mu Sheng saw He Xiaohua on the carriage board at a glance, and immediately raised his hand to signal Boss He not to give way. He turned his horse around, waited for Boss He's donkey cart to pass, and rode to the side.

"Master, Fulang is waiting for you to go back."

"You go back first and tell Ah, I must be home before dinner."
