Erhe spent her first New Year in this world at the He family. Strictly speaking, there was no such saying, as she was not a member of the He family, so how could she stay at the He family to celebrate the New Year? But Village Chief He also said that special circumstances require special treatment, and as long as the family agrees, nothing is impossible. From then on, every New Year would be celebrated by their family together, and now it would be regarded as an early adaptation.
Otherwise, Erhe would not believe a word Zou Yan said.
If Village Chief He and Wang Xiu are still not good enough.
Erhe doesn’t even know what kind of parents-in-law are good.
Although the general living conditions are very ordinary at this time, it is still very happy when it is time for celebration and fun at the end of a busy year.
The team distributed food and money. Parents with more money could give their children new clothes, although most of them could not. But no matter what, the team slaughtered the New Year pig and distributed pork, so they could always have a few delicious meals of meat, as well as fruits, candies, melon seeds and peanuts.
Although it may look like an inconspicuous snack, it is a favorite of both adults and children.
Village chief He has beautiful handwriting.
I also have to write couplets for the villagers every year.
Wang Xiu led a group of people of similar age in the village to cut the word "Fu". Each household took a few pieces home and pasted them on the doors or windows to bring prosperity and good luck.
Erhe is ready to make a move.
"Uncle He, let me try."
"Can you write?" It was the Zhao family's turn to write. The representative from the Zhao family was Sun Hongying. Zhao Yang's succession plan failed, and now the Zhao family has become much more low-key. Aunt Zhao felt ashamed, so she let Sun Hongying handle all the family matters.
Sun Hongying has experienced many embarrassing things, and now she is shameless.
Erhe held the brush and glanced at Sun Hongying. "I can't write. If you don't want it, go back."
After saying that, he looked directly behind Sun Hongying and said, "Come, the one behind."
"Sister Erhe," Li Xi came over, "I trust you. Please write one for our family."
Looking at her legs, Erhe remembered that she wanted to treat her legs. She had originally agreed to ask Chen Yuqin to treat her legs, but now forget it. Once they made money, any hospital could treat her legs.
"OK."
Erhe thought about it, picked up the pen and wrote a couplet.
May everything go smoothly every year and go well step by step. Horizontal banner: Good luck.
Just look at her calligraphy, it's extremely beautiful and the handwriting is grand, even better than Village Chief He's.
"Great handwriting!" He Zheng praised loudly, looking at his wife with pride, and also made fun of Sun Hongying, "Look, my Erhe's handwriting is better than my dad's."
Erhe: “…”
You are really so high-profile. Your biological father is right next to you. Don't you have any face?
Sun Hongying never thought that Erhe could write such beautiful characters. She wanted to say that it was nothing special, but it was indeed amazing. Not many girls in the village could write such beautiful characters. "You are amazing. Write one for me."
“No.”
He Zheng flatly refused and waved to the next person, "Hurry up and follow me. Writing couplets is tiring. Our Erhe doesn't write for everyone. Look at how beautiful the calligraphy is. It will look good and bring good luck if it's posted on the door!"
Erhe: “…”
After writing the Spring Festival couplets in great enthusiasm, Erhe found that his reputation in the village had improved a lot. Most people were still simple and honest, and thought it was great to be able to write beautiful characters.
Erhe didn’t think it was that amazing, after all, there were so many people who had beautiful handwriting.
Be humble.
In addition to writing couplets, she also carried candies in her pocket and gave some to the children in the village when she met them.
It’s not worth a lot of money, but it feels good to see the children happy.
Since it is the New Year, it should be lively and exciting.
The family was still preparing for her and He Zheng's wedding, mostly concerning etiquette and entertaining relatives and friends. Young people didn't understand these things, so Wang Xiu didn't want them to worry about them. She just told them to dress themselves up when the time came.
Because of the wedding, the He family’s New Year atmosphere was diluted a lot.
Erhe did receive two very nice gifts, one of which was a pair of leather shoes that Zou Zhou specially gave her for her to wear at her wedding.
Li Xi also gave her a sweater, also bright red, and asked her to wear it at her wedding.
Erhe rarely wore bright red clothes before, but since she was getting married, it was appropriate to wear something festive.
These two gifts were very much to her liking, so she accepted them without hesitation and planned to give them gifts in return after she had finished her important life activities.
After the New Year, it was soon the fourth day of the New Year, which was also the day before the wedding.
The uncles and aunts in the village all came to help, washing vegetables and setting the table.
Erhe had seen the lively atmosphere of wedding banquets in the countryside and found it quite fresh and exciting. Considering the convenience of the ceremony, the final result of the discussion was that Erhe would stay in a guesthouse the night before her wedding. She could only get a room with a letter of introduction from the village, otherwise she could not even stay in the guesthouse.
Erhe invited Li Xi and Zou Zhou to accompany her.
"Erhe, how are you? You're getting married tomorrow. Are you nervous?" It was Zou Zhou's first time accompanying a bride. Although she was not the one getting married, she was also very nervous.
"fine,"
Erhe thought about it seriously and was a little nervous, but not to the point of being extremely nervous.
"Yeah, I was too nervous. I believe you will be happy. I think He Zheng cares about you a lot and he will definitely treat you well." Although she had not seen He Zheng many times, Zou Zhou felt that this man was very reliable since she knew that He Zheng was willing to risk his life for Erhe. After all, life is so precious. If there is a man who is willing to sacrifice his life for her, she is willing to marry that man.
"I also think Brother He Zheng treats you very well," Li Xi said. He grew up in Kushui Village. His brother Li Dong has a good relationship with He Zheng and knows him very well. "When Brother He Zheng looks at you, his eyes light up and he can't help but smile foolishly."
Will it be like this again?
Erhe didn't notice it.
But she believed in He Zheng's feelings for her.
The three of them chatted in private for a while, and Zou Zhou and Li Xi advised her to go to bed early and get enough rest so that she could be the most beautiful bride tomorrow.
Erhe fell asleep and woke up in a daze in the middle of the night, as if she heard some noise outside.
Seeing that Zou Zhou and Li Xi were asleep, she tiptoed up, grabbed the flashlight beside the bed, turned it on, and pushed open the window. The room they lived in was on the first floor. There was indeed a person squatting under the window. When he heard the sound of the window opening, he quickly stood up.
Erhe shone the flashlight over there and saw He Zheng's face.
Although it was already midnight, he was wearing an army green coat, looking at her with bright eyes and grinning, revealing two rows of white teeth.
"Why aren't you sleeping?"
"You're still talking about me, what about you? Why are you squatting here instead of sleeping at home?"
He Zheng looked at her, smiling like an innocent boy. "I'm not sleepy, Erhe. I feel like I'm dreaming. You're really going to marry me. Are you going to disappear tomorrow morning?"
Erhe looked at him and said, "Give me your hand."
"Give!"
He Zheng didn't say anything and reached his hand into the window.
Erhe pinched the back of his hand lightly, and He Zheng cried out in pain without warning.
"Does it hurt? It hurts, it means you are not dreaming. Go back to sleep. I will stay here and not go anywhere, waiting for you to marry me."
