The next morning, before dawn, the first rooster crowed and the oil lamps in the village began to light up one after another, mixed with the sounds of children playing.
Wei Ci, wearing a military coat that covered her from head to toe, followed Wei Qingfeng and climbed onto the tractor bed in a daze.
"Hello, Aunt Hua, Aunt Lingyu, and Aunt Rong."
After saying hello several times, she sat down next to Wei Man and Wei Yang and soon fell asleep again wrapped in her military coat. Her delicate little face, white as porcelain and tender as a rose, was half buried in her clothes, which made people feel soft in their hearts.
"Did you make her some hangover soup when you got home yesterday?"
Wei Man's mother Wu Rong touched the little girl's smooth face and felt her warm skin, then she felt relieved.
When this was mentioned, everyone in the car couldn't help but smile.
Although the pig-killing dinner at Third Grandma's house yesterday was simple, it was meat, so everyone was naturally happy to eat it. For some reason, Wei Ci was eating and didn't know who handed her the wine. The little girl was so excited that she took it and drank it.
As a result, the little girl who had never been exposed to alcohol was naturally drunk, but she didn't act crazy. She just sat there obediently and smiled at people.
"No, she fell asleep on the bed as soon as she got home. She couldn't be woken up even if we shouted."
Wei Qingfeng hid the helplessness in his eyes. The actual situation was that the little girl disappeared right in front of him, which almost scared him to death. But the next second she appeared with various fruits in her arms. She took a bite of one and handed it to him, then took another bite and handed it to him again, with a serious face, saying that she wanted to test the poison on him.
Good guy, in order to prevent her from waking up the next day and finding out that he had done something stupid, he ate the fruit that someone had bitten off all night long, and almost ate to death. As a result, the other person forgot everything she did yesterday the next day.
I must never let her touch alcohol again. This guy blurts out everything when he's drunk. She's almost spilled all the secrets, but she still can't remember them.
He got a headache when he thought of the rice and flour jars, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and a bunch of miscellaneous bacon, chicken, duck, and fruit that she had filled up overnight. What would he do if he got married in the future?
Not only Wei Ci, but Wei Yang and Wei Man also curled up into a ball and slept soundly. The sight of the three soft and sweet little girls sleeping huddled together was so heartwarming.
Uncle Hai was wearing a thin jacket. He glanced at the trucks that were filled with people coming in one after another, shouted, and started the tractor.
"Everything is ready. Be careful not to fall when you open it."
"Uncle Hai! Wait for me! We haven't sat down yet!"
Aunt Wei San hurried over with her daughter, but was stunned to see that the truck bed was already packed with people, leaving no room for her.
"Why are you so late? Do you think you can still squeeze in?"
Aunt Wei San was so anxious that she broke out in sweat. Her family hadn't prepared anything yet. If they missed this big fair, who would be able to go out when the mountain was blocked by heavy snow?
"Hey Jiankang, just follow the oxcart later. It's not like only tractors can carry people."
"Then why don't you sit down?"
The aunt who kindly reminded her didn't tolerate her being scolded, and directly rushed back: "I came early!"
Aunt Wei San was full of resentment. She had been exhausted recently because of her son's affairs. She looked more than ten years older, and her drooping eyelids made her look even more mean. Finally, she looked fixedly at the leisurely Wei Qingfeng and the sleeping Wei Ci. Her lips moved a few times, and she wanted to say something but swallowed it back.
"Brother Qingfeng, is this your package? Can you move it so that my mother and I can sit in it?"
Wei Qingqing pursed her lips and looked at Wei Qingfeng with hope and caution.
She didn't know much about what her family and her second uncle's family had done to her uncle's family, but she knew that people in the village called them ungrateful people behind their backs.
But her brother has already paid the price. Her parents quarrel every day, and her family and her second uncle's family have been beaten by her eldest cousin so that everyone is injured. Isn't this enough?
Why is it that her cousin, who used to be very gentle to her, always pretends not to see her or completely ignores her every time he sees her, even though it's clearly not her who did anything wrong?
Wei Qingfeng ignored the mother and daughter under the car. He would never forgive the people from the second and third wives.
The tractor gradually drove away, and the mother and daughter who remained there had different expressions. Aunt Wei San's eyes were gloomy, and no one knew what she was thinking, while Wei Qingqing's eyes were red with grievance.
When Wei Ci woke up from his nap at noon, he found himself on a busy street.
Her confused eyes looked around at the row of ox carts and donkey carts, and then at the countless people crowded together. The completely unfamiliar environment made her a little confused.
Someone lifted her up by the back of her neck, and the next second, she was safely on the ground. There was helplessness and a smile in her second brother's voice.
"You really can sleep."
Everyone on the truck had bought a lot and came back, but she was still asleep.
Wei Ci blushed in embarrassment. She was not actually a sleepy person. Wasn’t she a little dizzy from drinking a little wine?
"Second brother, I didn't get drunk last night, did I?"
I've never been drunk before, and I don't know how I handle alcohol.
Wei Qingfeng did not hide his gloating, and his big teeth were exposed.
"I have made a fortune, but I still can't repay you. Uncle Hai's two dogs were scared away by you."
Wei Ci's eyes widened in disbelief, and she subconsciously retorted: "Impossible!"
"You don't believe it? If you don't believe it, go back and ask the heavens and the earth, and see if they'll still pay attention to you."
Last night, she tortured the two dogs so much that she almost pulled out all the hair on their tails. In the end, she insisted on dragging the two dogs to dance. Not only did she want them to dance, she also wanted to do the Colorful Feather Dance, which tortured them so much that they ran away overnight.
Wei Ci's face fell, and she was taken by Wei Qingfeng to have breakfast.
"Brother! What do you want to eat?"
Wei Qingfeng looked back at Wei Ci, and seeing that she was still struggling, he smiled and pulled the two of them to his side: "What do you want to eat?"
Wei Ci sniffed, and the fragrant smell made her eyes light up.
"What is all this?"
"Oh my! Is this the older sister? She's so pretty. These big dumplings, stuffed with pickled cabbage and pork, are three for ten cents. These big fried dough sticks are two for five cents. Look at how greasy they are, they smell so good!"
Half an hour later.
Wei Ci held a pie in her right hand and a rice cake in her left hand, and she felt both curious and satisfied eating them.
Wei Qingfeng followed behind her, looking at her helplessly yet dotingly. This girl would just take a few bites of whatever she ate and then give it to him, mainly for the sake of novelty.
"Brother, what is this?"
"Frozen pear."
"What are frozen pears?"
"Frozen pears are delicious when eaten in the snow in winter."
They heat the kang in winter here, so the house is warm and eating a frozen pear when you are thirsty is so refreshing!
"So... is it delicious?!"
"Have you forgotten what we have at home? It's in the big vat in the yard."
Wei Ci thought about it and suddenly realized, oh, it was a tank of black balls, and she said why it looked so familiar.
"Aci! You finally woke up!"
