As New Year’s Eve draws closer, the atmosphere is filled with the tension of the upcoming New Year.
Some people are rushing back to their hometowns to celebrate the New Year, some are buying New Year's goods, some are still cleaning, and some are cutting window decorations and making lanterns.
On New Year's Eve, Guo Yu and Zhou Feng came back in the cold wind carrying large and small bags of things.
When they arrived, Guo Youxing was hanging lanterns and pasting Spring Festival couplets at the door with a few children.
The brothers Guo Jianping and Guo Jianjun were killing chickens and fish in the yard. The fish were delivered by Aunt Guo on the 28th day of the lunar year, and each of the three families got one.
Deng Qingling and Li Chunyan went to the well to wash vegetables, while Liang Xueying stayed in the house listening to the two little babies waking up, and peeled chestnuts with Guo Ninghuan.
This is to prepare the chestnut stewed chicken for dinner.
These chestnuts are dried and preserved in the autumn, otherwise they would be uneaten.
When Zhou Jiazhen saw his parents, he ran towards them.
When Zhou Feng saw his son running towards him, he was very happy. He immediately put down the package on his body and opened his arms, ready to pick up his son if he ran over.
Soon Zhou Jiazhen pounced on Zhou Feng's thighs. Zhou Feng picked him up and put his face against his.
The other children surrounded Guo Yu.
Chattering to my aunt.
They didn't feel unfamiliar at all.
Although my aunt and uncle rarely come back, they often receive things sent by my aunt at home.
Yes, Guo Yu basically sends a letter back to her parents' home every month.
Occasionally, I would send back some candies, dried fruits, pencils, notebooks, toys, etc.
The children also miss this aunt.
In the autumn, they picked up a lot of chestnuts and acorns. They didn't eat much themselves, so they asked Deng Qingling to send them to their aunt.
For a moment, everyone was having fun.
After kissing his father for a while, Zhou Jiazhen saw his mother surrounded by his brothers and sisters.
He was extremely anxious and turned to Zhou Feng and said, "Dad, please let me down. I want to go to my mom."
Hearing his son's request, Zhou Feng let go and put him down.
Then Zhou Feng picked up the luggage on the ground and walked to his father-in-law, and the two of them exchanged greetings.
Zhou Jiazhen quickly squeezed in front of his mother and told her how much he missed her.
Guo Yu smiled and gave some of the lighter things in his hands to his nephew so that he could free up his hands to hold his eldest son's hand.
...............................................................
Guo Yu pulled Zhou Jiazhen and walked in front of Guo Youxing with a smile, "Dad."
Seeing his daughter standing in front of him, Guo Youxing's smile almost reached his ears.
"Hey, you must be exhausted after traveling all the way. Give the things to dad." As he said that, Guo Youxing directly took the things from Guo Yu's hand.
Then he added, "Come on, everyone, go inside. Last night your mother and I were talking about you guys, but you didn't write home. We didn't know when you would arrive in the county town, otherwise we could have called you and told you, so you wouldn't have to come back."
Originally, he wanted to have lunch and then ask his eldest son to send the child back to the county town to be taken care of by his in-laws, so that his daughter wouldn't have to make the trip.
Guo Yu pulled Zhou Jiazhen along and followed Guo Youxing, saying as they walked, "I'm thinking of giving my parents a surprise."
Two days ago, Zhou Feng's father said that he was coming to the countryside to pick up the two children.
Guo Yu disagreed. She said she was afraid the child would make a fuss, so it would be better to wait for her to come back and pick up the child.
In fact, she wanted to go back to her parents' home to spend more time with them.
Guo Youxing: "You."
After several months, he also missed his daughter.
Everyone walked into the yard, talking and laughing.
As soon as they entered, Guo Yu and Zhou Feng saw two people working in the yard, so they hurriedly greeted them:
"Brother, we are back."
The two men who heard the sound looked up and saw their sister and brother-in-law coming back. They were very happy.
"Ayu and Afeng are back. You go into the house with Dad first. We'll talk later. This is almost done." Guo Jianping said with a smile.
Guo Yu smiled and said, "Okay."
... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
When Liang Xueying saw her daughter coming back, she quickly put down the chestnuts in her hand, stood up and walked towards Guo Yu.
I haven't seen my daughter for just a few months, and she seems to have lost weight.
Liang Xueying grabbed Guo Yu and scolded him, "Mom, you look so thin and your face is pale. Didn't you eat well?" As she spoke, she pinched Guo Yu's arm.
Even with thick clothes on, the flesh on my arms didn't get pinched.
Guo Yu took Liang Xueying's arm and walked towards where she had just sat. "Oh, Mom, it's a cold wind, it's normal to look a little pale."
Hearing this, Liang Xueying patted Guo Yu's hand and said, "Sit down, Mom will make you some ginger tea."
Without waiting for Guo Yu to speak, Liang Xueying turned and went into the kitchen.
"Aunt, uncle." Guo Ninghuan said.
"Oh, that's good."
"Come here, uncle will give you some candy." Zhou Feng said with a smile.
After hearing this, the children quickly surrounded Zhou Feng.
Zhou Jiazhen also instantly let go of Guo Yu and walked towards Zhou Feng.
After Guo Yu sat down, he looked around and said to Guo Youxing, "Dad, where's Jiahua? Did he go out to visit with his sister-in-law?"
"Jiahua and Haojie are taking a nap in the room." Guo Youxing said.
Guo Yu: "Did they wake up very early this morning? Why did they go back to sleep so quickly?"
"When the rooster crowed, it woke up the two little ones. Your sister-in-law and second sister-in-law went to the well to wash vegetables." Guo Youxing said.
At this time, Liang Xueying's voice was heard.
“Ginger tea is here”
As Liang Xueying entered the room, a strong smell of ginger instantly filled the room.
Smelling the rich aroma of ginger tea, Zhou Feng frowned slightly.
Looking at the bowl of "heavy maternal love" in front of him, Guo Yu swallowed hard and said, "Mom, is the ginger harvest good this year?"
The smell is so strong it can kill people.
A wise child is better than his mother.
Although Guo Yu didn't say the latter part, Liang Xueying heard it.
"To get rid of the cold, stronger ginger tea will be more effective," said Liang Xueying.
Zhou Feng's face couldn't help but twitch. This must be billions of dollars.
Guo Yusheng replied helplessly, "Oh."
Guo Yu and his wife looked at each other and picked up the bowl of strong ginger tea on the table.
I finished it as quickly as I could.
hot.
Very spicy.
After drinking it, my whole body felt warm and hot.
Guo Yu and his friend felt that they never wanted to see ginger again in their lifetime.
