My 1995 Small Farm Chapter 127

   Chapter 127 Sister-in-law

   Shangliang is a great event. Besides helping with the work, there are also many guests.

Qin Rongxian and Liang Hongyu didn't talk about it. Zhao Dahai drove the car early and stood by outside the hospital. If you need to buy anything, you can go to the county town to buy things in half an hour after driving, which is faster than Wang Jusheng. It's faster to buy a car.

   "Fugui, my sister is here, let my brother and sister arrange some work for her."

   Not long after, Qin Qiumei also came, riding a red curved beam bicycle, and when he entered the house, he would give a red envelope.

   "What red envelopes are given back, as long as people come."

  Chen Ling smiled and brought people into the house, let Wang Susu greet him, and then turned around to continue to welcome the guests.

   "Uncle Five, Brother Guoping."

   "Come, come, smoke, smoke."

  The family not only let Wang Jusheng buy good tobacco and wine, but Zhao Dahai also brought some, and after disassembling them, they distributed them to the men, all of them smiling from ear to ear.

   "Good guy, this cigarette is so good, the cigarette case is so beautiful, it must be expensive."

   "That's right, the city leaders gave it to the rich and famous. It is estimated that this pack of cigarettes can be exchanged for a few pounds of pork."

   "What, just this thing, how many pounds of pork can I exchange?"

  Wang Lai shook his hand, and he was reluctant to smoke.

   then glared at Chen Ling: "Your baby is really good, remember to leave me a few cigarette cases."

  This cigarette case is very high-end at first glance, so I bought loose cigarettes and put them inside.

   That guy, take it out, can't you calm down a crowd?

   "What cigarette case do you want, Uncle Fifth, I'll take a few packs later. Come, come, hurry up."

Lighting the cigarettes for Wang Laishun and Chen Guoping, Chen Ling went to greet the others. Most of them came to the house to fetch water, but there were too many people who helped Chen Ling's house build, and they were not from a large team, so they didn't come to help. , but I still have to celebrate on the day of the Liangliang.

   Every one of them came to the door without empty hands. They brought some grains, about seven or eight pounds. When they entered the yard, they poured them into the big vat with red paper, even if they followed the ceremony.

   This is also an old custom. In the past, when there was no hunger, it was a huge human burden.

  The congratulatory gifts in the countryside are all real gifts, and there is nothing superfluous to pay attention to.

   Especially this year, there is a shortage of food, which is really not too little.

   Slowly, people are almost here, and the courtyard is lively and lively.

  Chen Ling looked at the time. It was just after ten thirty, and there was basically no one here, so he helped Zhao Dahai to carry half of the pork he bought to Chen Yuqiang's house.

There are many people who come today and buy a lot of meat, so I don't worry if I can't finish it. Tomorrow I have to repair the roof and lay tiles, and it won't break even if I simmer it in the pot on a small fire. Just kidding.

  After finishing the pork, he cooked two dishes and came out. Seeing that the time to get on the beam was about to come, Chen Ling led Zhao Dahai to his house.

   "The dog days are so fragrant, it's about to start dinner?"

   "What to cook, your uncle Fugui just cooked oil and cooked a few dishes."

   "Are you making a dish? You've already made some stuff, Uncle Fugui."

   "Pork head meat, roast chicken, fried peanuts, and some cold dishes, how about it, is it enough?"

   "Enough is enough, isn't it enough to have pork and roast chicken?"

Shangliang Cuisine is the dish that Master Shangliang eats on the head of the beam after the Liangliang is finished. There are several dishes and a pot of wine. You can't finish eating and walking around. It's not a dinner. .

   Several people were talking when a cheer suddenly came from the courtyard.

   "Brother is amazing, this calligraphy is so beautiful."

   "Impressive, so **** powerful."

  Chen Ling walked into the courtyard and saw that it was Qin Rongxian who was writing couplets on the square table under the tree. Wang Laishun and others were standing beside him, thumbs up, and kept applauding.

   "Fugui, the couplet is ready, come, go and paste it."

"okay."

  Chen Ling walked over and took a look at the couplet.

  The first couplet: Sanyang Rizhao Ping'an House

  Second couplet: Five Lucky Stars at Jiqing Gate

   Horizontal Approval: Lucky Star Gao Zhao

   This calligraphy is really well written.

   Originally, Chen Ling planned to let Chen Guoping write it, and Qin Rongxian was also itchy for a while, but I didn't expect the pair to write really well.

   This pair was posted in front of the new owner's house, and the couplet was posted on the new home, and red silk was hung on the beam for good luck.

   "Rich, rich, come here and check the beams again, and the beams will be installed in a while."

"I'm coming."

   This guy, Chen Ling was really busy today, someone called him just after he posted the pair, and his feet were barely touching the ground.

   Busy is really busy, happy is really happy.

  After Chen Ling went over to check, everyone pulled up the beams except the main beam. As for the main beam, which is often referred to as the big beam, it was not possible to go up until firecrackers were set off.

   "How rich and noble, haven't we started yet?"

   "Wait, there are five more minutes."

   At this time, Chen Ling had already wrapped the firecrackers around the girders, and placed many firecrackers on the gables on both sides.

   When Shangliang's dishes were almost finished, Wang Lixian shouted, "Shangliang, good luck."

  Chen Ling lit the firecrackers, and amid the sound of the firecrackers "crackling", the beam wrapped in red cloth rose steadily.

   "I'm going to start spreading the flower buns and sugar, hurry up, hurry up and get ready."

  As the beams slowly rose up, the people standing on the roof began to throw the beams, shouting Kou Cai.

  The adults and the little dolls have long raised their heads and can't wait.

   In the cheers, the steamed buns, candies, etc. were all thrown down, and the adults and children were instantly boiling, and they all scrambled to the ground and squatted on the ground.

   "Mother, look, red envelopes, there are red envelopes!"

   "Oh my God, there really is a red envelope, I saw it too, grab it quickly!"

I found that there are still red envelopes for throwing beams today, and everyone's enthusiasm instantly increased. The adults were better. The little babies didn't care about anything. When they saw the red envelopes, they all screamed and rolled on the ground, crawling all over , to scramble to throw down red envelopes.

   "Don't squeeze, don't squeeze, squeeze someone to death."

   "Damn, who picked my pants."

   Today is really lively and even more festive.

  Chen Ling glanced to the side and saw that his daughter-in-law was smiling like a flower, her eyes were bright, and she was full of emotion, so she dragged her over and joined the fun to compete with the little kids to pick it up.

   made the little kids howl.

   "Ah, Uncle Fugui, what are you doing, why are you still robbing your family's red envelopes yourself?"

  Chen Ling laughed, his eyes were fast and his hands were fast, and he grabbed another one in a while, Wang Susu also giggled and kept following along.

   The young couple made such a fuss that Qin Rongxian and Liang Hongyu also joined in, and then everyone ignored it and started to scramble. It was really lively.

   There was a lot of fuss for a while, and all the things in the basket were thrown away. The little kids were still reluctant to leave. They looked east and west, looking for some fish that slipped through the net. Not to mention, some corners are really not picked up by people.

   All the little kids are so enthusiastic, they can smirk happily for a long time if they find a candy cube. If they pick up an extra red envelope, they will be even more excited, and they can't wait to jump three feet high on the spot. After picking up the candy and red envelopes, I went to pick up the cannonballs. In the summer, I didn't have any pockets on my body. All of them were shirtless and wrapped in vests.

  The dolls are the happiest and happiest today.

   There are red envelopes to earn, candy to eat, and cannonballs to pick up, all of them are full of joy, and the excitement will not go away for a long time.

   Actually, I didn't plan to pack any red envelopes at first. Later, Qin Qiumei said something, and Wang Susu thought about it too. Anyway, it was a good luck.

   Anyway, you don't need to put more, just put up a coin purse of one or two cents. After asking Chen Ling's opinion, he hid in the room and helped pack sixty-six in high spirits, which really gave everyone a surprise.

After the beam is installed, it is customary to dry the beam. It is said that it is best to leave the beam on for a while. When the sun is shining, the sun is shining. The weather is not good. It is windy and rainy. It can't be replaced once it's out, each has its own festive saying, and every household comes here like this.

  No matter what you say, you don't have to work this afternoon, everyone can drink and eat meat, but they can be happy.

   So after noon, several large tables of wine and food were placed directly. There was good smoke, wine and food, and they didn't go down. I had a good meal and drink today, just to be happy.

   "It's still rich and noble. It's been a few days, and the meat hasn't been broken."

   "Sure, my rich brother is not a stingy person, that's absolutely not wrong."

   "How about it, is this dish tough enough today?"

   "It's hard, it's too hard, chicken, duck, fish and pork are all over it, and it's very poisonous. Come lead, I'll give you a toast."

   "What do you call a leader, wealth is my brother, uncle, just call me the sea."

  Chen Ling was too busy, so Zhao Dahai and Wang Jusheng helped to accompany the wine.

  When the villagers saw that they were the leaders from the city to accompany the wine, the guy immediately felt that he had a special face, and everyone was very happy.

   "Fugui, are you done with your work? Hurry up, everyone is waiting for you, hurry up and have a drink."

   "As soon as you come, the last dish will be out of the pot immediately."

  Chen Ling didn't have time to untie his apron, so he hurried over after wiping his hands.

He is really busy today. He has to cook after finishing the beams. This guy has no other job. He has to do it one by one. He can't be in a hurry. Bar?

   That is not hospitality.

   Fortunately, Qin Rongxian came over today and helped him cook a few dishes, otherwise he might not be too busy.

   "Come, let me toast everyone."

  Chen Ling filled a glass of wine, and he didn't play tricks, just drank it with one glass.

   "Okay! It's fun!"

   "Come, come, come rich and rich, we can't leave this table, drink one!"

   "And we, our table too."

   "Hahaha, look at this situation, it's almost time to get married, so take it slow, don't get drunk on wealth."

   "What are you afraid of? You are as rich and powerful as an ox. One person can lift the rammer. I don't think it's bad for this amount of alcohol."

  Chen Ling also laughed. Indeed, with his current physical fitness, even if this is the case, he would just touch the cups and kill them one by one, which immediately attracted constant applause from the crowd.

   It was lively and lively, and it was finally time to drink.

  Chen Ling said: "If you don't work this afternoon, everyone can eat and drink hard. It's the same sentence, don't save me."

   In the cheers of everyone, Qin Rong first helped Chen Ling to prepare the last dish and put it on the table.

   "Take a break, uncle, sit down and eat."

   "Brother sit in my seat, I am cool here."

   "It's okay, it's okay, you guys are too polite."

   A group of people then began to persuade Qin Rong to drink.

   It was lively for most of the day, and the banquet did not dissipate until three or four in the afternoon.

  Leaving only a group of mother-in-law to help Wang Susu to wash. The men were in high spirits today. Everyone drank a lot of wine and went home to rest.

   "Sisters-in-laws and aunts, there is still a lot of food left for lunch, remember to grab a few bowls later."

   "Oh, you little girl, why are you being polite? You play with us all these delicious foods every day. It's enough to eat in your stomach. How can you go around without finishing it?"

   "That's it."

  The women are waving their hands one by one. No matter how poor they are, they will be embarrassed. Chen Ling is not letting them work for nothing, no matter how much they eat, they all have meat, what else do you want?

   However, he refused to bring the food home. When Chen Ling left, everyone stuffed some candy, peanuts, etc., just like that, the mother-in-law couldn't help but close their mouths with joy.

   The couple have been busy these past few days, and these women who came to help have no time to spare, and they have contributed a lot. It should be expressed.

When the sky turned dark, Chen Ling drove Zhao Dahai's car and sent Qin Rongxian and Liang Hongyu back. Zhao Dahai had a drink and rested at Wang Jusheng's house. Qin Rongxian had a few toasts and drank a lot. Now there are few empty rooms at home. , they were too embarrassed to stay overnight, so they had to trouble Chen Ling to send them.

   "This guy, his work is over."

   Driving home, Chen Ling took the tea from Wang Susu, took a sip, and slumped on the reclining chair, not wanting to move.

   He is strong and strong, and he can do whatever he can to work hard, but he can't stand it. There are so many people and so many things to take care of, mainly because he is tired.

   "If you are tired, take a rest early. I will heat up the leftovers from noon, and we will go to bed after eating."

  Wang Susu pursed his lips and chuckled, wiped his face with a wet towel, and turned to go to the kitchen to warm up the meal.

  Chen Ling closed his eyes and hummed, and fell asleep in a daze after a while.

  Wang Susu saw him so hot, she couldn't bear to wake him up, so she hurriedly took a bite of food and fed the dog and cow.

These days, the quails in the family have hatched again, and the two broods of rabbits have been able to run away. Since people come to the house every day, it is not easy for them to run around in the yard. I have come out, but I have to remember to add water from time to time.

   On a hot day, you don't need to feed too often, but water is essential.

   After going back to the house, he was talking about asking Chen Ling to eat when there was a burst of dog barking in the village. After a while, the dog in the house also barked.

It was already dark at this time, Wang Susu looked up at the time, just after eight o'clock in the evening, she shook Chen Ling: "A Ling, A Ling, why don't you drive Brother Hai's car into the yard, in case the night Someone messed up."

"what?"

   "Okay, I'll drive in."

  Chen Ling rubbed his eyes, got up and walked out.

   Just as soon as he went out on his front feet, the two dogs sniffed at the air and trotted out.

   "What did you hear again? This is it?"

  Chen Ling frowned when he saw this, feeling a little murmured in his heart.

   Then I heard a little girl's voice coming from outside, "Wow, this is the big dog that my sister raised. One is black and the other is yellow. There are several pictures on it, I recognize it."

   Then the little girl shouted: "Sister, sister, are you at home? I'm here to see you."
