Another World Baixin

On the 27th of the twelfth lunar month, Bai Xin asked the Jiang family to buy a pair of couplets for the Lin family to paste. On the 28th, the boss Bai accompanied the Jiang family back to the Jiang family with the child, and on the 29th, the Qin family and the Mei family came to give things to the old man and the Zheng family.

At thirty, the whole family dresses up one after another, and those who have new clothes put them on.The Zheng family, the Fu family, and the Jiang family got up early to cook rice. They put a bowl of Stove Lord on the stove, leaning against the wall, and put a stick of incense on the rice.Because Mr. Bai was not a native of the country, and he didn’t even remember his parents, so the Bai family did not set up an ancestral tablet, and there was no ancestral hall in the village for ancestors, so Mr. Bai led the whole family to set up an incense table in the yard. Tribute, a simple sacrifice to heaven; then move to the kitchen to pay homage to God Stove, and that's it.

The Bai family slaughtered a chicken and a duck today. The old man did it himself, and the others did it.Bai Baoshu was four years old after the Chinese New Year. Seeing the bloody scene, he didn't care to be afraid. He was so happy to think of having meat to eat at night, so he ran back and forth with the adults.Until Er Fu passed by Er Fu, Er Fu casually gave him a slap, beating him up.Bai Xin likes Baoshu very much. When he sees him being beaten, he hugs him to comfort him. Who would have thought that he would be dazed and self-absorbed, not knowing what he was having fun with, so he broke free from Bai Xin's arms and went after chicken and duck. Ignore Bai Xin.

Seeing this, Boss Bai asked Bai Xin to take the treasure book and play with the children in the village.When those children saw Bai Xin, they either ran away in fright or boldly came up to bully him, who would want to play with him.Boss Bai just said that he didn't think about it at all.

For Chinese New Year, Jiang wanted Baoshu to have fun, so he asked Baoli to lead the younger siblings to Qin Jiamei's house.The girls didn't go out to play very often, so they didn't like it when they heard it, so they went to Qin's house first with fried potatoes and potatoes with garlic and shells.

The Qin family is pasting the door couplets. The sweet potato powder is boiled with water and stirred to make a very useful paste. It is best used to glue the couplets.Six-year-old Qin Shuang'an had a greedy mouth. Before the paste got on the couplet, he had his mouth covered with paste. His little hands were all sticky. The little guy licked his fingers greedily. The twin sisters Shuanghua and Shuangshu were beside him. Laugh at him.

Baoli led the younger siblings in and said with a smile, "You're only posting couplets now, have you finished posting them yet?"

Qin Shuangping looked back at so many people, and was overjoyed: "It will be finished soon, I got up early in the morning to post it; if it wasn't for Xiao An who was making trouble, it would have been done already. You go in and sit down first."

Bai Baoli was not polite to him, and led everyone into the main room.The Qin family's house is small, and although the specifications are the same as the Lin's, it has no back yard, only a front yard. One of the four rooms in the main house has been used as a utility room, and the other has been used as a kitchen.When Qin Jian was away earning money, Qin Shuangping shared a room with Shuang'an, and the twins slept with Amu Baiqimei; after Qin Jian came back, the four children shared the same room and put more boards in.

Not long after, Qin Shuangping came over.In the hall, there are twelve square tables for entertaining guests, and a group of people sit crowded together.Bai Baoli took out the dry goods she brought, and Qin Shuangping also put out snacks prepared by herself—although the Qin family is poor, Qin Jian and Qin Bai's family are generous to the children. Then the life becomes rich: there are spicy dried fish, fragrant melon seeds, fried broad beans and homemade fried green beans brought from the north. Even the potatoes that are common but not often eaten by ordinary people are dimmed in front of these snacks.All of a sudden, the children from the Bai family ate quickly, reaching out to take it before they finished chewing.

At this time, Mei Qing and Mei Fanglin from the Mei family came together.It turned out that the two of them went to Bai's house first, and found out that everyone was here, so they looked for them.

Sitting between Bai Baoli and Qin Shuangping, Bai Baohua, who was busy eating, stood up at this moment, pulled Fang Lin affectionately and said: "A Lin, come and sit down," and then smiled at Mei Qing and shouted: "Ah Qing Brother!"

Mei Qing nodded with her smile unchanged, and only told her good brother, "A Lin is here to play with them, and I will pick you up later." It turned out that he sent Mei Fanglin here specially, and he went to find his little friend. played.

Bai Xin casually glanced at Bai Baohua's face.Sure enough, seeing Mei Qing disappear, a disappointed expression immediately appeared on her face.

The speed at which eleven poor children eat is astonishing.Bai Baoli was quite embarrassed, after all, she came here to play together, but ended up patronizing to eat, and almost ate up everything from the host's house.She came up with an idea and said, "Let's tell stories and ancient times! If you tell a good story, you can eat; if you don't speak well, you can walk around the yard with a precious book on your back!"

After Baoshu understood the last sentence, he applauded decisively.Mei Fanglin made fun of him on purpose: "Baoshu doesn't know how to tell stories, so you have to go to the yard behind your back!"

Sure enough, Baoshu was bluffed, and he didn't expect him to walk behind his back, everyone laughed together.

Qin Shuangping wanted Bai Xin to show off more, so he suggested, "Ah Xin, let's have one first." Bai Baoli cooperated very tacitly and agreed, and the others had no choice whether they were sincere or not.

Bai Xin was very face-saving, and in order to enhance the atmosphere, he even put on the posture of a storyteller, patted the table and said: "It is said that there used to be a banyan tree village, and there was a 300-year-old banyan tree in the village. Under the banyan tree lived Orion and his family. Son Da Mao. Orion told his son Da Mao about ancient times when he was free. He also specially told the story of "one man walks the world with one knife and one horse", commonly known as "walking the rivers and lakes". Seeing injustice, he draws his sword to help, and comes and goes like the wind. The big cat heard it too much, and his heart itch, so when he was 15 years old, he took the Orion's hatchet and ran out secretly!"

The children gradually listened with fascination. Although they didn't quite understand the meaning of some words, they still found them interesting.Bai Xin went on to say: "Orion didn't see his son and hatchet, so he went to ask the neighbors. The neighbor's child told him: 'The big cat said he went to the rivers and lakes!' Immediately, Orion was stunned. Then he ran away. The big cat outside, with a hatchet, joined a small pier gang in the local area. After a few years, the big cat will fight and play a few tricks. Be a "big cat man"! He thinks he is a hero, he can beat local ruffians and bandits. When he heard that a rich man moved there, big cat man decided to take out the money from the rich man's house Give to the poor."

"That night, the big cat ran to the rich man's house and searched for a long time, but he couldn't find the rich man's warehouse, only the rich man's bedroom. There was nothing valuable in the bedroom, so the big cat wondered if it was a good thing that was stolen. He hid it on the bed. So he secretly lifted the curtain of the bed—how could he have thought that there was an old man sitting on the bed staring at him with wide eyes!" Bai Xin pulled down the eyelids of his eyes and stared blankly come over.

"Ah!—" Immediately, several children screamed out of fright.Only the youngest ones who didn't understand well were not frightened.

Bai Baoli scolded with a stern face: "Ah Xin! Don't scare people indiscriminately."

Bai Xin said innocently: "I didn't scare you, the old man is alive."

"What?!" Mei Fanglin was upset, "Since he is alive, why is he sitting on the bed in the middle of the night and scaring people?!"

So Bai Xin went on to say: "The old man heard the sound when the big cat entered the bedroom, and was going to scare the thief who came to steal things in the middle of the night. He only heard the big cat screaming strangely: 'Father?!' The old man took a closer look, Jumping off the bed, he rushed towards the big cat and yelled: "You are a heartless brat! You still know that I am your father! You sneaked away from home for several years and didn't come back!" It turned out that this old man was the big cat's father , the Orion who lives under the banyan tree. He has earned a lot of money in the past few years, so he moved out hoping to find his son, and he did. "

The two sisters, Shuanghua and Shuangshu, were not familiar with Bai Xin, so they wanted to ask a question but didn't dare to ask, so they asked Bai Baoqian to come forward and ask, "What happened next? Did the big cat go back with his father?"

Bai Xin shook his head and told the audience: "I don't know, Orion is still teaching his son a lesson, and we won't know the result until he finishes his lesson."

Qin Shuangping, who understood the meaning, was overjoyed. The other innocent children didn't figure it out yet, but it's a pity that they didn't know the outcome of the story.

The children had a great time this day.At dinner in the evening, the members of the Bai family hadn't calmed down their energy during the day, and they were even more delighted to see stewed chicken and duck on the table. It's up for grabs.

It's so easy to have a particularly sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner all year round, and Mrs. Zheng didn't disappoint, so she picked a piece of duck leg for the old man and started dinner. "Oh——" Baoshu was probably too excited to stop playing, he actually yelled, and immediately asked Jiang to pinch his leg.This meal was not eaten separately, the two tables were joined together, and everyone sat in order of seniority.

Chicken stew head, duck stewed with wild mushrooms, scrambled eggs with carrots, fried cauliflower, fried mustard greens, roasted cabbage, shredded garlic kelp, and green garlic flowers are eaten raw with sauce and vinegar (green garlic is taken from the white head One section, cut the thick end into silk, it is easy to taste when dipping), the staple food is a bowl of rice.It was so rich that even Bai Xin moved his chopsticks quickly.In the past, there were people talking and talking about things at the dinner table, but today I saw everyone with their heads down and trying to stuff things into their mouths.

The old man didn't compete with the children, he poured himself a glass of soju and sipped it. From time to time, dishes that Mrs. Zheng gave him would appear in his bowl.

Seeing that we are about to finish eating, we are preparing for the night watch.However, Mrs. Fu uttered an astonishing sentence: "Father, Ah Fu and Er Fu have been born, and Ah Feng and I are both grandparents. Now that everyone is here, let's discuss it." Let's talk about the separation!"

My aunt posted the article late on the first day. In the article, the author made up a short story. If you are interested, please leave a comment, and the author will think about the following story.

According to my mother, ginger and brown sugar water is very comfortable to drink. If the girls are too lazy to cook, you can add ginger slices to brown sugar and pour boiling water for brewing. Hehe
