sun and moon return

The early morning of the New Year's Eve was extremely lively. When the sky just dawned, firecrackers sounded from the streets and alleys.

After Xiao Bo set off firecrackers in the alley, he asked Lu Hezhe and Zheli to look after the shop. Today the family was going back to worship their ancestors, so they cooked a whole chicken early in the morning.

Before noon, the group came back, and Xi'er took out the New Year pictures bought a few days ago, asked Lu Hezhe to help paste them, and hung the big red lantern at the main entrance.

After a simple lunch at noon, the family began to work on the reunion dinner in the evening and the ingredients for the Lantern Festival the next day.

Feidao agreed to Zheli to make sweet-scented osmanthus New Year cakes for him, and when they were busy, he asked Xiao's mother for some sweet-scented osmanthus, glutinous rice, brown sugar and soybean flour, and borrowed the treasured place in the kitchen.

Zheli wandered around Feidao, pretending to be a helper, but in fact he was just admiring his master's heroic cooking.

Lu Hezhe was also standing at the door, holding a handful of melon seeds, like an old lady watching the fun on the street.It doesn't matter if you don't care, and you have to comment on it from time to time.

Zheli thought he was noisy and pushed him out again.

When night fell, Xi'er moved the stool, solemnly lit a red candle and put it in the lantern.

He also directed Zhe Li and He Zhe to stack the tables and stools in the store together, leaving a big table full of delicious food.

Everyone sat down, Father Xiao took the wine he had collected for many years, filled it up for everyone, took a glass and got up: "Today is a good day for reunion, old man, first of all, I want to thank Mr. Su, and thank you Mr. Su for your support in times of crisis." We help."

Father Xiao raised his glass as he spoke.

Zheli hurriedly said: "Uncle Xiao, I can't bear it, you drink slowly, you are all from your own family, so don't say polite words."

Father Xiao waved his hand, then turned to Fei and said, "Young Master Xiao is here to travel, and I hope you will have a good time." He looked at Hexuan again, "Hexuan, from now on, you will treat this place as your home and us as your home." Writer."

"Young Master Su is right, we are all one family, you are all welcome, I drink, you can do whatever you want, whatever you want." Father Xiao said, and drank that big glass again.

"Let me tell you, what's so good drinking alone," Xi'er said with a smile, "Let's have a drink together on such a happy day."

Everyone toasted, and after drinking, they tasted the result of the busy day.

Zheli was the first to take a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus New Year's Cake, put it into his mouth, and swallowed it, leaving a fragrance on his teeth and cheeks.

"En!" Zheli exclaimed in satisfaction, "Mr. Xiao, this pastry is really delicious."

Lu Hezhe, who was moved by the sound, also hurriedly got up and took a piece. After eating, he showed a pleasant expression: "Sweet but not greasy, the fragrance is long, and it melts in the mouth. It's really good."

"Yo, I can't tell you still have a few drops of ink in your stomach." Xi'er joked, she also picked up one with her chopsticks, and nodded frequently after eating.

"I really can't see that Mr. Xiao is so proficient in cooking." Myolie said.

Feidao responded with a smile to these compliments, and Zheli was naturally proud, after all, Feidao learned these dishes for him.

After eating too much dinner, Zheli went back to the room with his stomach in his arms. After a while, Feidao slowly came up. Seeing him lying down comfortably, he couldn't help but take a second look.

Zheli was rubbing his stomach and pretending to be dead, seeing him looking at him frequently, he panicked, and asked with a bitter face: "Master, why don't you go to practice today..."

Feidao asked, "Why?"

"Ah~" Zheli was in pain, "It's Chinese New Year... let's take a rest."

Fei Dao smiled lightly: "You lift the pillow."

Zhe Li was puzzled, but he followed suit. He turned over and lifted the pillow, and there were two copper coins under it.

Zheli's eyes brightened.

"When I was making the bed, I saw a pillow under the pillow. I heard that the human world has a custom of giving lucky money during the New Year."

Zheli picked up two copper coins, put them in the palm of his hand, and looked at them over and over again.

Before going to Qingwu, every year Tang would secretly give himself lucky money.

Zheli looked at the two copper coins, and felt a little puzzled: "Then the other one... Master, did you put it?"

"En." Feidao looked at him.

Zhe Li pouted and silently put away the two copper coins.

One sect is the head of the sect, the other sect is in person, and the yearly lucky money is only one copper coin, how stingy this is! ! !Excessive!Zheli wants to cry but has no tears.

The next day, he was awakened by the sound of firecrackers to say goodbye to the old year and welcome the new year. Dimly, Zheli suddenly found himself hugging Feidao's arm, and his leg was also unscrupulously pressed on Feidao's body, and he couldn't help sweating a little.

Feidao was still lying upright, just like when he fell asleep.Zheli glanced at him, hurriedly and silently withdrew his hands and feet and retreated from the side of Feidao, rolled twice and returned to the inside.

After a while, there was the sound of clothes being rubbed beside him, and Zheli pretended to be awake and stretched: "Good morning, master, did you sleep well last night?"

Feidao glanced at him with a half-smile: "Fortunately, it's just a little sinking."

Zheli covered his face: "If I press Master again in the future, Master will push me away, so don't feel sorry..."

"You have nothing to pity." Feidao replied lightly.

Zheli only felt a heavy blow.

Feidao went downstairs and helped to make some breakfast.

Yuanxiao, white jade meatballs, and crystal steamed dumplings are all at your fingertips.

After eating this breakfast, everyone was amazed by Feidao.

"Sir, your cooking skills are too good!" Xi'er was full of praise, anyone who knows how to cook can't resist the temptation.

"Someone in the family likes food, and if they study a lot, they will naturally get it." Feidao just regarded this as an ordinary thing.

"Your family is really blessed." Xing'er smiled, "It must be Mr. Xiao's favorite person."

Xi'er paused for a moment, revealing a gossip look: "Has Mister married yet?"

The food in his mouth became stale in an instant, and Zheli scooped up a Yuanxiao and stuffed it into his mouth: "Ouch."

With a "crack", Zheli spat out a copper coin from his mouth in amazement: "Why are there still copper coins growing in this Lantern Festival?"

Xi'er chuckled and said, "Only idiots get copper coins!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a "cracking" sound came from the non-daokou.

Six pairs of eyes looked over at the same time, and Feidao spit out the copper plate lightly, making everyone laugh.

Xi'er laughed embarrassingly: "Sir, don't take it seriously, if you get a copper coin, it means you are lucky!"

"Oh, I'm stupid if I dare to eat it, and I'm lucky if Mr. Xiao eats it. Xi'er, how can you be so partial?" Zheli teased.

"Then you are a blessed fool." Xi'er shot him a look, "Listen, how well I praised."

The two started arguing again, Xi'er caught a glimpse of Lu Hezhe like a hamster from the corner of his eye, he didn't stop talking, and was about to inhale the whole plate of crystal dumplings in a storm, so she quickly grabbed the plate: "Hey, you Just know how to eat, save some for us!"

Lu Hezhe swallowed the food in his mouth, and replied angrily: "I don't think you need to eat, you will be tired enough to panic."

"What nonsense are you talking about?!" Xi'er glared at him fiercely.

"Okay, Xi'er," Xiao's mother held her back, "why don't you look like a girl anymore, eat well."

There was another moment of silence at the dinner table.

The schedule of the first day of junior high school is to visit relatives and friends, or meet to go shopping.

There were fewer traveling merchants from outside these days, but the local merchants still blocked the main street, and the street was very lively with people coming and going.

From the second day of the first lunar month, there will be lantern shows one after another at night until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

During the day, the four members of Xiao's family went to visit relatives and friends, and went to shop together, so Feidao grabbed a discount and went up the mountain.

When night fell, the group went out to the night market, bought lanterns, released sky lanterns, guessed lantern riddles, and wrote pairs.

"Egrets go up to the blue sky, play an anagram." Zheli picked up a lamp, on which a group of egrets were painted flying into the sky, with a few strokes, the charm was already there.

Xi'er and Lu Hezhe surrounded them, chattering and discussing, and Zheli laughed while listening.

Xi'er looked at him: "Why are you laughing, but you guessed it? I paid for it!"

"It's a road sign," Zheli picked up the lamp, "Look, the bird has flown away, what's left."

The two suddenly realized that they hurriedly told the boss and took the lamp away.

After a while, Zheli was wandering around a lantern shop, and his eyes fell on a blue square palace lantern on the lampstand. The lantern was decorated with a lotus flower and tassels underneath.

This lamp has a name called "Love".

"The wind passes without a trace,

The snow falls silently,

The smile has entered the heart, "

Before he finished reading it, he saw a green hand take off the lamp before him, and paid the money quickly.

"Xi'er!" Zheli was speechless, "What did you buy that lamp for?"

Xi'er ignored him, took the lamp and ran away happily.

Seeing that he couldn't catch up with her, Zheli looked back at the lamps on the shelf, but he couldn't see any of them, so he sighed. , went to the sugar seller's shop again, picked a rabbit and stuck it on Feidao's head, and laughed so hard.

Feidao took down the sugar figurine, stuffed it into Zheli's mouth, Zheli ate it, and dragged him to try on the mask.

Fighting all the way to the river.

There is a big tree with five people hugging each other by the river. It is said to be hundreds of years old. The tree is covered with red cloth and marriage lottery. .

Xi'er glanced at the old Taoist several times, and those people all went forward to look at the paper palace on the water.The palace was exquisitely made, lifelike, floating on the water, attracting many onlookers.

Seeing that they were engrossed in watching, Xi'er went back to the old tree and asked the old Taoist to ask for a lottery.

Signed, "Floating clouds cover the eyes, and the people in front of you when you return."

The old Taoist stroked his beard and said, "It seems that the girl's fate has arrived, but there are still some ups and downs."

Xi'er blinked her big eyes, hiding the sadness in her smile, took the thin bamboo stick and held it in her palm, as if this could give her more courage to fight for this shallow fate.She took the red silk, paid the money, thanked the old Taoist, took her lantern and ran away.

Zhe Li was discussing the figure in the palace with Fei Dao, when he felt someone pulling him from behind, he turned his head, Xi'er looked away unnaturally: "Come here, I have something to say to you."

Zheli was a little puzzled, talked to Feidao, and followed.
