After Xiao Zhen and his friends took a hot spring bath, he asked his grandfather to take him, his cousin Wenming, his cousin Wenying and his grandmother to take a bath in Beibei's Beiwen Hot Spring.
He had heard that soaking more often was good for the health of the elderly, so he persuaded his grandson to drive for more than an hour to Beibei to soak in the hot springs.
Xiao Zhen didn't feel anything special, but the smell of sulfur was stronger.
While taking a bath, his cousin, who is 20 years old this year, was urged by his grandparents to go on a blind date.
His cousin Wenying interrupted and asked if there was anyone suitable in the wholesale department. There were very few girls in the wholesale department, and all of the 20 or so girls in his family were beautiful women with very attractive looks.
Of course, since they are all girls, in case something gets difficult to handle, seven of his father’s comrades-in-arms were left behind to provide support.
During this period, although the crackdown was very severe, the naughty kids were still rampant, not to mention Chaotianmen!
It was around the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month, and my cousin and his sister went home early. As for my cousin's matchmaking task, she had to start looking for time on the fourth day of the first lunar month. My cousin and his friends started working calmly on the tenth day of the first lunar month.
The production base in Shenzhen, Guangdong will start work a little later, after the 15th day of the first lunar month and the 18th day of the first lunar month.
Xiao Zhengtang was willing to give his factory workers nearly a month's paid annual leave.
Daily overtime pay is also paid on time. Of course, the accommodation conditions are the same as those in other factories, but they will be greatly improved after March. The apartment dormitories will be renovated with rooms for couples, and each worker will have a small suite and a separate room.
This is to avoid inconvenience for young people who can't control their temper. However, if you are not staying in the same factory, you need to register your ID card before you are allowed to stay overnight.
Without an ID card, people are not allowed to enter the factory. Huaguang is still a production base with some technical content.
Xiao Zhen helped his grandparents to make glutinous rice flour, but his grandfather insisted that the flour produced by the machine smelled like engine oil.
I had previously asked a stonemason to make a stone mill myself. On the 22nd day of the twelfth lunar month, I drove to call his second uncle to bring a rope to go to the stonemason Wang to pull the stone mill.
He brought it back and installed the stone mill that his grandfather had been longing for in the warehouse next to the kitchen.
Wash and scrub clean, and after lunch, slowly grind the soaked glutinous rice and sticky rice into rice slurry in a certain proportion.
Xiao Zhen thought it was fun, so he volunteered to add rice with a spoon while his grandpa and grandma pushed the millstone for a while.
His grandfather likes to eat glutinous rice balls, so he grinds them a little more.
The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren worked for an entire afternoon to grind the glutinous rice ball flour. They then had to wrap it in gauze to press out the water and then put it into earthenware jars.
Xiao Zhen looked at the stone mill. To be honest, Wang the stonemason's craftsmanship was really good. His grandfather told him that Wang the stonemason also specialized in carving tombstones, pines, cranes, lions and so on!
This is a master of folk crafts. Xiao Zhen praised him so much that he said he would like his grandfather to take him to learn relief carving from Grandpa Wang!
His grandfather knew that when his father passed away, he said that if Xiao Zhen wanted to learn, he could arrange for him to study, as long as he was polite.
His grandfather agreed to Xiao Zhen's idea of learning stone relief carving from Lao Wang. Carving lions is a physical job, and in fact, stone carving is also a physical job.
Xiao Zhen also wanted to learn to play the suona, so he asked his grandfather about it that day. His grandfather said he would arrange for him to learn it at the beginning of the new year.
We started cleaning on the 25th and 26th of the twelfth lunar month. We went to my grandparents' house first. As soon as we got there, we saw my eldest and second uncles leading people to renovate the roof!
Xiao Zhen was just downstairs, passing and installing tiles, and he could still do the job.
When his grandmother saw it, his little hands were already covered with red cuts. It was normal to get scratches while working.
But the whole family dotes on this little prodigy and never lets him do any heavy work.
His eldest uncle and second uncle were both nearly 40 years old and were lectured by the old empress dowager for a long time.
Xiao Zhen hurriedly persuaded his grandmother, saying that he was fine and that his grandmother didn't let him do it because she felt sorry for him.
Something like "the top scholar's hands shouldn't be ruined like this" made Xiao Zhen blush for the first time.
As soon as his cousins came back from the fields with the fertilizer soil, their grandmother took them one by one to the yard to move tiles and weed.
After cleaning up his grandpa, uncle and second uncle's houses, which took most of the day, his grandmother took them all to Chalukou and Xiaozhen's hometown to re-roof their houses. Fortunately, the small villa at Chalukou was a bungalow and did not need to be re-roofed.
We celebrated the New Year's Eve at my grandfather's house on the 28th, at my eldest uncle's house on the 29th, and at my second uncle's house on the 30th.
On the afternoon of New Year's Eve, we have to go up the mountain to worship our ancestors and burn paper money. Xiao Zhen also returned to his hometown of Dahuangjushu in the afternoon. He knows how to do this.
In the evening, Xiao Zhen washed his grandparents' feet at home and received 20 yuan in New Year's money. He was very happy.
As soon as it was 8 p.m., Grandpa asked Xiao Zhen to turn up the volume of the TV so that the whole family could watch the Spring Festival Gala happily.
However, Xiao Zhen really wanted to ask who was so smart to come up with the idea of moving the Spring Festival Gala to an outdoor stadium in Kyoto during the coldest days of winter!
Xiao Zhen thought that this would definitely be the last Spring Festival Gala for this guy, and he would definitely be criticized by his superiors.
"Why is it so dark? It doesn't seem as bright as it was two years ago!" said the grandmother.
Seeing the sharp eyes of the crowd, Xiao Zhen explained that it was held in the stadium.
"How cold it must be for these singers!" said Grandpa.
"That's not true. I think a lot of people will catch colds!" Xiao Zhen complained...
As soon as the time passed 00:00, Wen Dalu went to the courtyard to set off fireworks and firecrackers.
Looking at the gorgeous fireworks, Xiao Zhen missed his father and mother.
The next day, the first day of the new year, Xiao Zhen got up very early, but his grandmother got up even earlier.
The dumplings were already cooked, and the eggs were also ready. After breakfast, his grandfather took a large stack of red envelopes with him when he went out. He would only give one in return if someone gave one to Xiao Zhen. This is called reciprocity!
