The husband of the time-travelling ruffian
Chapter 41 Watching Lanterns on the 5th of the First Lunar New Year!
It was the fifteenth day in a blink of an eye, and it snowed a few times. The old patriarch laughed out of wrinkled faces, seeing Tian'er chanting at home, the auspicious snow heralds a good year.
Zhao Xuan went out early in the morning and went crazy for a while, and ran into his brother's house when he came back.
"Brother, if you continue to be lazy, you'll become a pig!" Zhao Xuan climbed onto the kang and lay beside Zhao Chen's head, his big round eyes were eye to eye with his brother's.
Zhao Chen stretched out his hand, slapped Zhao Xuan aside, and continued to lie on the kang as a corpse.
Thinking about it, he has never been free since he started wearing it. Now that he finally has time, how could he not have a good rest?Lying on the kang, I don't want to get up.
Mrs. Li Bin really spread the word to him in the village as he said last time. Zhao Chen's family has nothing to do with Zhao Daliang's family.
Why do you say that?Because Zhao Chen said it himself!
When he mentioned this, Xia Chun's nonsense was self-defeating, but Xia Chun was also capable of making up nonsense.
Standing in the middle of a group of nuns stretched his arms and yelled, who said Xia Chun was telling lies! ?He Xia Chun was not wrong at all!
It was because of Zhao Chen's relationship that Zhao Ruyi met the Young Master's family!Isn't this Zhao Chen's matchmaking? ?Where did he say it wrong! ?
When he mentioned this, many people in the village rolled their eyes at him, but they really couldn't say anything to refute.In the end, I can only go with him.
When Zhao Chen heard this, he didn't think about going to trouble with Zhao Daliang's family anymore. No matter what, Xia Chun's words got him out.As long as it wasn't that he, Zhao Chen, took the initiative to set up a bridge and act as a matchmaker, which caused this trouble.He doesn't care what Xia Chun does.
Zhao Chen was comfortable and lazy at home until fifteen, and said a few words to Zhang Xu every day, and talked about homework with Aunt Zhang Xu. Occasionally, when Old Man Li came to ask him for a drink, he would push a few words and say it later, Xiao What a comfortable life!
On the [-]th day of the first lunar month, Zhao Chen wanted to sleep through the festivities. Although the festive lanterns were good, Zhang Xu couldn't go if the children couldn't go. It wouldn't be interesting for him to go by himself, so he didn't want to.But he doesn't want to, it doesn't mean Zhao Xuan doesn't want to.
Zhao Xuan had been yelling at Zhao Chen to watch the lanterns five days ago, and his little mouth was chattering endlessly, because he had studied in school for two days, and occasionally he could say a few words: "Brother, get up, today It's fifteen, and you've been lying down for days! Zi said, it's better to be alone than to be happy together! Brother, it's so boring for us to spend the holidays at home! It's better to go to the town to see the lanterns and have a happy holiday with everyone!"
Zhao Chen closed his eyes and didn't even look at him: "Why can't your sister-in-law go, don't go!"
Zhao Xuan was aggrieved: "Brother, do you want to stay with sister-in-law at home? I understand, but you can't stop me from going because of your personal reasons!"
Zhao Chen was overjoyed, turned over and sat up on the kang: "You still know what personal reasons, why, you still want to go by yourself? Have you become more courageous, are you not afraid of being kidnapped by someone!?"
Zhao Xuan frowned at what was said, thought for a while, and then his eyes lit up: "Brother, let Brother Rui go with me, so the two of us won't be abducted. Brother, just promise!"
Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, Zhao Xuan is really not as courageous as ordinary calves.Thinking about being taken away by Fatty Bai at the beginning, he is the biggest in the world for what he is doing now!
Zhao Chen looked at him, his head hurting: "Boy Rui is only thirteen, he is still a child, and he can't even protect himself, so just tell me, if you are taken away, which adult can he beat you? How did you snatch it?"
Zhao Xuan stopped talking, and went out pouted and sat on the small bench by the stove, sulking all by himself, and his actions were done in one go!
Seeing that he really wanted to go, Zhang Xu persuaded Zhao Chen, "Why don't you take him there, and take Ah Mo there too."
"Then leave you alone at home? If you have already given birth, I don't worry about leaving you at home. Now what if someone suddenly comes to the house who is uneasy and kind? You play with the ball?"
Zhang Xu's face darkened, he pushed him, and returned the ball?Your children are the ball!Zhao Chen is eloquent and can say anything, sometimes he says that his stomach is a puppy, and the next moment it is a ball.
Sometimes Zhang Xu really doesn't want to talk to him, it can make him mad.
Zhao Xuan was not honest for a while, and began to be restless again. Sitting on the bench, he looked back at Zhao Chen for a while, and then again, and finally stared at his brother eagerly, with eyes full of eagerness that I wanted to see the lantern.
Zhao Chen wasn't even afraid of the look in his eyes that wanted to kill him, how could he be afraid of this?He spread out on the kang and knocked pine nuts calmly.It was Zhao Xuan who couldn't sit still anymore, looked at Zhao Chen with tears in his eyes, then rubbed his stubble-grown head with both hands, seeing that his brother ignored him, he yelled and rushed out the door.
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!"
Zhao Chen was complacent and unmoved at all!
But with so many obstructions, Zhao Xuan finally found a way to go to see the lanterns at night.
In the evening, Zhou Dafu, the patriarch's son, came to Zhao Chen and said that Zhou Tai went to visit the lanterns by himself, and felt that it was boring without Zhao Xuan.Come and ask if you can let Zhao Xuan go with you.
Zhao Chen looked at Zhao Xuan who was secretly hiding at the door and looking inside.Not to mention, once in a while this kid gets smart, there is still something to be desired.This all knows how to find the guardian of the door.If Zhao Chen doesn't let him go, he will be really disregarding human feelings.
Zhao Chen smiled and said, "Okay, then let him go. Brother really troubled you."
Zhou Dafu laughed dryly: "It's okay, I have to take Zhou Tai anyway, just to see one more child." This is really a big trouble!
Zhou Dafu actually didn't want his children to go. Recently, he heard that the county had lost many children, and every family in the county didn't dare to let them out again.It's too late to hold the child at home, where can I get it out! ?What's more, this is Zhao Xuan, and there is Zhao Chen behind Zhao Xuan. If something happens to Zhao Xuan, Zhao Chen won't settle the score with him?
Even if his father is the head of the patriarch, the head of the patriarch can't ask you to settle the loss of his child, and he still uses his power to be unreasonable, right?
But he was also quarreled by Zhou Tai and couldn't help it. The child would do anything to fight and roll around, and he was also afraid that if he disagreed, wouldn't it be more dangerous for the child to run out by himself! ?Thinking of this, he frowned and nodded in agreement.
When Zhao Chen let go, Zhao Xuanle jumped up and hurriedly went to talk to Zhou Tai.
Zhou Dafu said helplessly: "Zhou Tai is the only kid in the family, this is spoiled, if you don't let him go, he will be spoiled!"
Zhao Chen waved his hand: "Boy Xuan is not the same, boys of this age are all playful, there is no way."
Zhou Dafu sighed, Zhao Chen thought for a while and said, "Cao Rui lives with me now, let him go with him, let him have fun, and half a boy can help you take care of those two boys .”
Adults and children often can't talk together, and if one is not paying attention, the child will not know where to go.Although Cao Rui was older than Zhao Xuan and the others, he was not an adult like them. Zhao Xuan and Cao Rui were familiar with each other again, and would only play with Cao Rui, and Cao Rui could take care of those two cubs by the way.Of course Zhou Dafu did not refuse.Don't say that he didn't refuse, he was really looking forward to it, with Cao Rui around, even if something happened, he couldn't blame their family entirely! ?
Zhao Xuan and Cao Rui went to visit the lanterns that night.Zhao Chen originally asked Zhang Xu if he wanted to go, but Zhang Xu shook his head. He was still not used to crowded places, so he didn't want to join in the fun.In the evening, Zhao Chen set off firecrackers, and Ama Zhang Xu made Lantern Festival.There are red bean paste, sesame, and walnut.Zhao Chen doesn't like sweet ones, and then there are dried bean curds, pickled vegetables, stuffed meat and stuffed vegetables that are fried and cooked. The stuffing is what Zhao Chen said, and Zhang Xu made it. Zhao Chen eats it with a face full of satisfaction .
Zhang Xu tasted a few and thought it was pretty good: "I've never heard of this stuffing before, where did you hear about it?"
Zhao Chen rubbed his nose and said haha: "I accidentally ate it when I was messing around at the pier, sugar is expensive, they can't afford it, so they just eat this." It seemed to be true.
Zhang Xu glanced at him, and his dark eyes seemed to have pierced him: "Oh."
After eating the Lantern Festival, Ama Zhang Xu took out a pack of candles from the cabinet, cut a candle with scissors to the length of a finger, and took the candle with Zhao Chen and Zhang Xu to go out to light the lights.
Putting lights in the village is also called sending lights. The kerosene lamps in the countrymen’s homes last all night, and then in front of and behind their houses, as well as a section of the road near their homes, a candle is lit at intervals to illuminate the road. I also want to send a few lights, which means sending Ding Qizi to keep him safe.Zhao Chen helped Zhang Xu and Zhang Xu's aunt out the door, and there were already many people sending out lamps outside, and there were dimly lit candles on the side of the road.The days have started to warm up over the years.But the snow has not yet melted, and there are snowdrifts piled up during road clearing on both sides of the road. Villagers step on the snowdrifts to make a snow nest, and then sit and light candles in it to ensure that the candles will not burn. Blown out by the wind.
It didn't snow today, and the air was still a bit cold, which couldn't stop people's enthusiasm for sending lanterns.Zhang Xu carried the lantern, Zhang Xu held the candle and lit it and handed it to Zhao Chen. Zhao Chen stepped down and put the candle on the snow nest.
Zhao Chen had never experienced this kind of experience before, and only felt it was fresh.It was the first time that he had someone to accompany him through the festival.In these days, it is impossible to say that he is not enthusiastic.Zhang Xu who was sitting on the kang, Ah Mo who was chattering, and Zhao Xuan who gave him a headache.
After the last candle was lit, the streets and alleys in the village were illuminated by candles from every household.Zhao Chen lived in the city before, and these customs have long been forgotten by the city people.He looked at the scattered candles in the village, and couldn't help but said, "It's very beautiful."
Zhang Xu said: "You can go for a walk on the road, this is also the lantern festival in our village."
Zhao Chen smiled, and looked back at Zhang Xu by the dim light of the candle. Behind Zhang Xu was their house, and beside him was Ah Mo who was also supporting him. Inside the clear phoenix eyes were the lights of thousands of families in the village, calm and peaceful. peaceful.
Zhao Chen said: "Next year we will go to the city to see together. The snow on the road has not yet melted, and it is very slippery. Let's go back today." Zhang Xu nodded, and Zhao Chen carefully helped him back, "We are young , we will spend more time looking at the lights together in the future."
Zhang Xu thought for a while before humming.
Zhang Xu couldn't stay up all night, so he went to bed first, while Zhao Chen sat on the kang and waited for Zhao Xuan.The county magistrate had fun with the people. There was no curfew in the county seat today, and the city gates didn't close until midnight. Before leaving, Zhou Dafu told him that he would come back with those who went to see the lanterns in the village that day.
Zhao Chen was killing time with the ledger in his hand, which was sent by Master Wanda.A businessman is a businessman.Don't forget to talk about business during Chinese New Year.Wang's Winery didn't stop making wine during the Chinese New Year, and paid three times the wages to ask the staff to work overtime.What Zhao Chen had in his hands was the sales volume of drinks from the previous year, and it was also a guarantee for Zhao Chen that he would not cheat his dividends.
Zhao Chen doesn't know many characters, and he can even understand Meng Dai's guessing. He has read too many account books, and now he can recognize the traditional Chinese characters best, but he can't even read the ten numbers. It's going to be big.No way, people don't know Arabic numerals, so he can only do as the Romans do.Later, I couldn't take it anymore, so I went to the stove to find a piece of charcoal, and marked the Arabic numerals behind the traditional numbers, so that it looked more comfortable.
In fact, he just looked at it blindly, and he didn't even calculate how much money he should get. Thinking that before the wine was profitable, shopkeeper Wan dared to lend him 200 taels of silver, and Zhao Chen didn't think that Fulinmen could cheat him.What's more, Zhao Chen thought, no matter how much money he got, if he took it out and put it at home, he might as well just put it in Fulinmen and get some when he uses it, which is more convenient!Right now it's just a matter of finding something to do for myself.
He marked halfway, and there was a chattering sound outside the door.Zhao Chen went down to open the door, and shushed Zhao Xuan with his index finger on his lips: "Why are you yelling, what time is it, don't you know your sister-in-law, are they all asleep?" Xuan got a slap on the back of the head.
Zhao Xuan was used to the beating, and he wasn't angry, not to mention he was excited, the lanterns in the city were so beautiful, if Cao Rui hadn't said he had to go home, he would have wanted to live in the city, he hadn't stayed in an inn yet.
"Brother! Aren't I happy? The lantern is so beautiful!" Zhao Xuan's eyes were shining brightly, and he hugged Zhao Chen's thigh and raised his face and whispered.
Zhao Chen pulled the person out disgustedly: "Okay, okay, it looks good, you're satisfied this time, go wash up and go to sleep, just because I'm sleepy waiting for you two bastards! I'll hear you talk about the lamp tomorrow!"
Zhao Xuan followed his strength and walked out, but he was still not happy, feeling that his excitement had not been conveyed well.He dragged Cao Rui out all the way, talking about this lamp and that lamp, waiting for Cao Rui to have a good time, and do it again with his brother tomorrow!Not only lanterns, but also lion dances in the county, and stilts in the county!Such tall stilts, my God, those people are so brave, they dare to step on them!
There was no excitement on Cao Rui's face. He seemed to have something to say to Zhao Chen, but before he could speak, he was dragged away by Zhao Xuan.He followed Zhao Xuan on his feet, and at the same time looked back at Zhao Chen, with a dignified look as if he had encountered something serious.I saw Zhao Chen yawned again, his eyelids were clenched, and it was getting late, but he still didn't say anything in the end.
Zhao Xuan went out early in the morning and went crazy for a while, and ran into his brother's house when he came back.
"Brother, if you continue to be lazy, you'll become a pig!" Zhao Xuan climbed onto the kang and lay beside Zhao Chen's head, his big round eyes were eye to eye with his brother's.
