The Sweet Little Fulang

Growing up so big, Shen Xuanqing has never been laughed at by anyone, let alone by the old and young Shen Yan.

The little girl has no eyesight, speaks bluntly, if she is two or three years younger, she can still talk like a child, but she is almost twelve, how can she speak so nonchalantly, and call her brother a fool.

Shen Xuanqing stood there thinking a lot, but when he looked at Lu Gu who bowed his head shyly, he couldn't walk with the brazier in his hand, and couldn't even speak to reprimand or refute Shen Yan.

When Ji Qiuyue heard Shen Yan's words, she couldn't help laughing immediately, and when she saw Shen Xuanqing's stupid way of keeping her eyes on Lu Gu, the goose really became a goose.

Wei Lanxiang who was tidying up in the room heard what they said, came out to look out of curiosity, saw his son staring at Fulang, and then looked at Lu Gu's shy appearance, who couldn't understand anything, and smiled until the creases on his face deepened.

There were too many people watching, and Shen Xuanqing finally came to his senses, with reddish ears, he hesitated and said, "I, I, I'll pour out the ashes first."

Using the charcoal brazier in his hand as an excuse, he finally slipped away without even daring to look back.

Shen Yan is heartless, and she only thinks about eating and playing on weekdays. She doesn't understand Lu Gu and Shen Xuanqing's reaction, but seeing her second brother fleeing to the backyard with a slightly embarrassed figure, she finds it interesting.

Seeing her laughing foolishly, Wei Lanxiang poked her on the forehead and said, "Little Nier, don't call your second brother stupid in the future, otherwise people will be beaten carefully when they hear you want to make a joke. But I can't control you."

When Shen Yanchu heard that she was going to be beaten, she was frightened, but when she turned her head and saw Lu Gu, she became more confident. With Gu Zi's elder brother around, the second elder brother would not dare to beat her.

"It's alright, alright, go wash your face, Auntie and Auntie will come later." Wei Lanxiang urged with a smile.

There will be guests at home today, the house has to be cleaned up, everyone in the family went to work on their own, Lu Gu was quietly relieved.

His cheeks were slightly hot, and Shen Xuanqing's reaction just now made him so shy that he didn't even dare to raise his head.

When he was combing his hair, he saw himself in the bronze mirror. Auntie was skillful, and the combed hair was much better than he usually tied it with cloth. Perhaps he was used to seeing himself, and rarely wore hairpins and silk flowers. I feel a bit awkward, I never thought that Shen Xuanqing would...

He took the broom leaning against the wall of the house and was about to clean the main room when Shen Xuanqing came from the backyard with an empty charcoal brazier.

The four eyes met, and the two were speechless.

Lu Gu's cheeks warmed up again, now that he was so close, seeing Shen Xuanqing staring at his Adam's apple moving, even made his ears turn red.

While no one saw the two of them at the moment, Shen Xuanqing whispered: "It looks good."

Lu Gu clenched the broom in his hand, feeling embarrassed and happy at the same time, trying to grab the corner of Shen Xuanqing's clothes, with a smile that couldn't be hidden on his face.

But at this time Shen Yaoqing came out from the main room, so frightened that he quickly withdrew his hands and hurried back to the room to sweep the floor.

Wearing new clothes on the first day of the Lunar New Year, the second room of Shen's family went out with silk flower hairpins on their heads, bracelets on their hands, and sachets hanging on their waists for Shen Yaoqing and his brothers, which can be described as brand new and beautiful.

Even when Shen Shunfu was here a few years ago, his family didn't have such a feeling of wearing gold and silver.

Because old Yangtou had money in the village before, the villagers knew at a glance that Shen Xuanqing made a lot of money as a hunter. Otherwise, how could he turn around in just a few years and live a better life than before.

Zhou Yunzhi saw the silver bracelet in Wei Lanxiang's hand, and then glanced at the Erfang family, feeling sour in his heart.

Her eyeballs kept looking at other people's jewelry, Wei Lanxiang smiled, raised her hands deliberately to cover her hair, so that the silver bracelet was more visible, and said: "Sister-in-law, look at our Qiuyue, you have to comb my hair , They are all old and immortal, combed so young, and insisted on wearing flowers for me, I just said one flower, but she didn't, she insisted on putting so many flowers on my hair."

When Zhou Yunzhi heard it, her sour water could come out. She always hated the poor and loved the rich. When she saw that the Erfang family was indeed rich, she stopped looking up, and even seemed a little flattered, saying: "You too, Mr. During the Chinese New Year, a young daughter-in-law is filial, so don't spoil your child's wishes."

"Look, the flowers on my head were bought by my eldest daughter-in-law. I didn't want to wear them on my hair at first, but after thinking about it, I can't make my child sad." She lightly touched the big silk flowers on her head with her hands, It's a pity that the silver bracelet on the wrist is thinner than Wei Lanxiang's, and it's still old.

"Oh, it's so pretty." Wei Lanxiang boasted smoothly, and when Zhou Yunzhi glanced straight at her wrist, she knew she was showing off. Her sister-in-law must be feeling very sour at the moment, and her mood improved.

The two sisters-in-law were talking insincerely, and Zhou Xiangjun, who was less talkative, laughed and said nothing. After a while, Shen Yan and Shen Yu called the eldest aunt to come outside, and they rushed out to welcome her.

Because the eldest house served the elderly and lived in the old courtyard, Shen Xuanqing's two aunts and three aunts would stay here for dinner when they came back, and the second and third families would also come over to have a reunion dinner together.

Now even if his grandpa and grandma are gone, the rules of cooking and eating at Da Fang's house have not changed.

Aunt Shen Xuanqing married far away, and she only came back to her mother's house during the Chinese New Year throughout the year, so naturally she also went to their house and Sanfang's house to sit and have a look.

Lu Gu went home first, brought out the eight dishes of pastries and dried fruits prepared at home, put them in the main room, and poured boiling water into the teapot to pour tea. After Wei Lanxiang and the others entered the door talking and laughing, the tea was also poured.

"Eldest aunt, drink tea." Lu Gu served the tea obediently.

The chubby old woman with a pair of gold bracelets on her hands glanced at him, nodded and smiled, and after tasting the tea, she took his hand and asked about his age and some homely words.

Shen Shuyun is older than Shen Shunde, she is the eldest sister of their generation, and she has a fierce temper, even Shen Shunde, who usually puts on the airs of the eldest son, dare not show off in front of her.

Grandpa Shen Xuanqing loves her youngest son Shen Shunwang the most, and she loves her fourth brother Shen Shunfu the most. She has nothing else but thinks that Fudi's insight is different from ordinary people.When Shen Shunfu had an accident, she did her best to send money and medicine, so Wei Lanxiang respected her very much.

On the way here just now, Wei Lanxiang and Shen Xuanqing both told her how Lu Gu was, now seeing that Lu Gu was well-behaved and he looked like an honest boy, she felt relieved.

"Elder sister, try this sugar cake. I boiled the syrup with a wooden crutch." Wei Lanxiang sat beside her and chatted with her.

Shen Shuyun didn't look at her age, but she could tell that she didn't like the big house very much. The second room and the third room were well-behaved, and the smile on her face never stopped when she came here.

"Erqing, hurry up and take the horse away from Nannan and the others." Wei Lanxiang said again.

Shen Shuyun goes back to her natal home once a year, mostly with her family and her family. There are several grandchildren, and the more lively it is, the grandchildren will get closer to their uncle's family.

Shen Xuanqing went to pick it up as told, as long as the children had something to play with and something to eat, they were very happy, and the courtyard was full of children's laughter.

Wei Lanxiang refilled tea and said: "I was in a hurry to go there in the morning, and I forgot to bring beef. Daqing bought it specially, and I will wait for you to come to eat."

Beef is more expensive than other meats. In fact, she didn’t bring it on purpose. When her relatives came, she took it to Dafang’s house in front of relatives, so that they all knew that the beef was bought by her family. The big house has nothing to do with it, otherwise Zhou Yunzhi's shameless bastard would definitely take the credit.

Shen Shuyun heard that she could afford beef, so she said: "That's the way it is, the better the days go by."

"That's not it." Wei Lanxiang loved hearing such words the most, with a smile on her face.

Two aunts and three aunts came to the first day of the new year, and there were a lot of people. It was the first time for Lu Gu to cook at Dafang’s house. Because he was not familiar with the land and his seniority, he and Ji Qiuyue started fighting in the kitchen. Today, they were outside, serving hot dishes. Wine is his job, and Shen Xuanqing sits at the table with relatives to eat and drink.

A lot of people came, and it was so warm today, so we set up four tables in the courtyard.

Lu Gu delivered food to the drinking man's table, he was a little cautious because he was not familiar with it, but fortunately Shen Xuanqing sat near the kitchen, every time he came over Shen Xuanqing helped him put the dishes away, so he didn't have to talk to others .

Shen Xuanqing took down the empty plate and handed it to him, and asked, "Are you hungry? Let mother leave some food for you on the stove."

"I'm not hungry, I just ate some unfinished dishes." Lu Gu smiled slightly, afraid of delaying the kitchen serving the dishes, and left, only heard how the relatives at the table made fun of Shen Xuanqing.

With so many people, talking in the yard is noisy, and the first day of the new year has passed like this.

Lu Gu is not familiar with his relatives, but just listening and watching from the sidelines makes him feel happy.

By the next day, it was time for them to go to a relative's house.

When Lu Gu was washing his face early in the morning, he saw the broken palace lantern in the yard. Shen Xuanqing wiped his face and followed his gaze, and said with a smile: "It's okay, when I was young, I went to my aunt's house and broke a lot of things in her house. If so, I will take you to the town to buy another one during the Lantern Festival, and buy one that looks better than this."

Lu Gu just felt that it was a pity that the palace lanterns were expensive, but he didn't really mean to blame others. Children played like this, and he also broke the lanterns bought by his mother when he was a child.

In the middle of the morning, they packed up, packed candied fruit, pastries, bacon and dried fish, Ji Qiuyue and Shen Yaoqing went to Ji's house, because they had cut off contact with Lu's house directly, and Lu Gu had no natal family to go back to, so Wei Lanxiang took her with her. The two of them went to Wei's house with Shen Yan.

Chinese New Year is like this, relatives are either visiting or visiting. From the first day to the fifteenth day of the new year, they are busy. Some old relatives and distant relatives do not move around frequently, but you must also pay attention. His relatives will definitely not go to Da Fang's house to eat. If one day comes, their family will have to prepare a good meal.

Their family's life is better now, when poorer relatives come over, Wei Lanxiang doesn't look down on them, they cook fish and meat, not to mention the adults, at least let the relatives' children eat more meat to satisfy their cravings, what a pity .

The days passed like a god.

Before the New Year's Eve, Lu Gu was nervous about the New Year's Eve, but when it came to the New Year's Eve, he felt nothing. Shen Xuanqing was always where he could see him, and he felt at ease.

The day before the Lantern Festival, Wang Li Village set up an opera stage at the entrance of the village, saying that Landlord Li had invited an opera troupe to sing a big opera.

Wangli Village is a little far away from their village, but many people in the village called their friends and made an appointment to watch a big show together tomorrow.

In the evening, Wei Lanxiang came back from a visit, and said that she had made an appointment with Quan Ziniang and A Jinnai, and that she would bring Lu Gu with her.

Shen Xuanqing is happy with this, it's also good to go out to listen to the opera.

Wei Lanxiang said, and said again: "When I came back, Uncle Ajin's cow was about to calve, go over and have a look later."

Even if the dog has a litter of puppies in the village, someone will go to see it, let alone a calf.

Shen Xuanqing had been paying attention to the calves in Uncle Ajin's house for a long time, and now when he heard that it was time, he said to go there together.

There will be more fields in the future, and it will be too tiring to rely on people to plow and plow the land. It would be better if there are cattle, because the cattle for farming are precious, and no one will easily sell the family cattle for borrowing, and the calves will be more intimate with themselves when they are raised from a young age.
