Chapter 172: Celebrating the New Year

At dusk, smoke rises.

The men and women all rushed back, and the sound of cows and sheep, chickens and dogs, and the sound of sparrows in the trees on the edge of the village was very lively.

Of course, the most lively thing is the women's scolding.

Nanshan Village is not big, a small mountain village by the mountains, there are only seventy or eighty households, but there are always women scolding the street every once in a while. As for the content of scolding the street, it is nothing more than that someone has stolen chickens today, someone has picked up eggs tomorrow, or someone has stolen vegetables from the field.

Stealing chickens and dogs and picking vegetables is always happening every once in a while, and when women encounter this kind of thing, they will scold the streets all over the village, all kinds of scolding words, the powerful third aunt can even scold for a day without repeating, of course, there are also stupid people such as five uncles who will only repeat those few sentences.

For the villagers, although it is a trivial matter, but a chicken or a few eggs are also an important family property, the eggs laid by the chickens can be exchanged for some needles and threads in the market, and the chickens that lay eggs can be brought back to the market for some salt, or which child, the elderly have a headache and brain fever Wan Yao Yao to ask a doctor for medicine, but also rely on this to exchange for some living money.

The villagers are simple, but there is no shortage of people in the countryside who are idle, stealing chickens and dogs. There are even such people in every village, not only young and young, but even some old men and women have such bad behavior.

In the past, when a woman scolded her on the street, Luo Cheng's mother would often come out and say a few words and ask what the situation was. Luo Cheng's brothers sometimes come out to see the excitement.

But today, there is no movement in the Luo family's courtyard.

in the hall.

Even the fourth child who had just come back was stunned with wide eyes after hearing about his father's life experience.

After a long time, Luo Cheng spoke.

"Dad, even if Luo Yi is a four-rank tiger general, but his harm to his father, sooner or later, I will let him pay it back."

The third heir of the old man also said angrily, "Yes, it doesn't matter if he is a tiger or a tiger, whether he is a third or a fourth, he actually bullied his father like that, and I, as a son, will never let him go." ”

"The third and fifth, I said this today, not to say that I want you to seek revenge on him one day, I originally planned not to say it for the rest of my life. But now you have an official status, and he already knows my whereabouts, although it is all old, and when he saw me, he said that he wanted to compensate me, but I don't want to have any more entanglements with them, and I want you to know about it. ”

"Father, the father is glorious and the son is glorious, the father humiliates the son and dies, we will definitely keep this matter in our hearts, and sooner or later, we will seek justice from them."

"Needless to say, it was all decades ago. After leaving Chang'an, I headed east, and later met your mother. ”

It turned out that Luo's father and Luo's mother were privately engaged for life and eloped.

No wonder the Luo family hasn't had much contact with the Qin family for many years.

The most surprising thing is that Luo Cheng's mother didn't know that Luo Cheng's father was a noble son, and even now, she only knows Luo's father's dusty background.

If her father hadn't told his children today, she would have thought that her husband was just a runaway son from a large family in Chang'an, who would have thought that he would be the son of a county prince and a seven-rank guard.

"I've been hiding this from you for so many years, do you blame me, old woman?" Father Luo took Luo's mother's hand and asked.

"What do you blame for?" Luo Mu just shook her head. At first time, she fell in love with Luo's father at first sight, because she liked his talent, and later trusted his character, so she finally eloped with him. At that time, she did not covet any wealth, so even if she now knows that he was the son of the county prince.

The fourth elder sighed for a long time.

"What are you doing?"

Lao Site said regretfully, "It turns out that my grandfather was a general of the county prince, but it's a pity." Aye, if you hadn't given that Luo Yi the blame in the first place, you would definitely be a tiger general now, and I can't say that you would be a seven-rank golden gourd warrior. ”

"You're still a six-grade thousand cow guard!" Luo Cheng despised the fourth child.

"Okay, let's not talk about that. Today is Xiao Nian, Xiao Wu has made peace, and today our family is taking prison pills. ”

When he was not born, his father Luo Ronggang joined Yang Zhong's command and named his unborn child noble, hoping that he would be rich in the future. Later, he was really rich, married another, and gave birth to a child named Yi and Shou.

Luo Cheng rolled out the dough and rolled out a few dumpling wrappers, but the sisters-in-law already thought he was too slow, and then drove him aside.

So the two sisters-in-law rolled the dough, and several sisters who came back from marriage kneaded the dough, chopped the stuffing and made dumplings.

The men of the family were pushed aside.

Dad took the Luo Cheng brothers to kill chickens and ducks, burn the hair of pigs' heads and sheep's heads, boil large pieces of white meat and carp, these are all offerings to Zaojun for a while, and the men will prepare them themselves.

The four married daughters and their husbands also came to the house early today, and they sacrificed to the stove king at home very early, and then went to the father-in-law's house to reunite.

Because now they are all serving as errands in the county barracks with Luo Cheng, and they have all been rewarded recently, and their pockets are also bulging, and when everyone comes, they all come with chickens and ducks and preserved fruits.

As soon as a few nieces and nephews arrived home, they called sweetly, and then took the fruit and ran around.

The atmosphere at home is indescribably joyful.

After making the sacrifices, Luo Cheng went back there and turned around, and found that the women's dumplings were really good-looking, one by one, like a glaive, with bulging stomachs, Xiaomei and Wang Huiniang The two girls excitedly introduced to Luo Cheng, where is the leek filling, where is the carrot filling, and the mutton filling, mushroom and chicken filling, and the woad pork filling, they have seven or eight kinds of fillings.

Then a hundred of each filling were wrapped.

"Are you done eating?"

Luo Cheng was surprised.

Luo's mother said on the side, "It's rare to pack once, just pack more, your sisters also come to the house today to reunite, there are many people." ”

Although he said this, as soon as it was wrapped here, Mother Luo over there commanded the little sister to call the Luo Cheng brothers over, and then pointed to the bowl of freshly boiled water prison pills that had been packed over there and said, "Send it to the six grandmothers and a few old people in the village." ”

The sixth grandmother is an old widow in her seventies in the village, who has been widowed for decades, and has worked hard to pull several children all her life, but in the past few years, her son has walked in front, and only her granddaughter has married far away, and she has no descendants. If it weren't for the relief from the officials and everyone in the village over the years, there would have been no one for a long time.

But the more this is the case, the more stable she is, and she is in her seventies in a blink of an eye, which is a rare elderly birthday star in the history of the village.

There are several other elderly people in the village, some of whom are not very well with their children, and some of whom are not in good health. Luo's mother used to help take care of her, and now that the dumplings are cooked at home, she asked the Luo Cheng brothers to send them door-to-door.

"Mother, I'm an official now, Jiupin Lixin Lieutenant, it's not good for you to let me deliver dumplings?" The fourth one put on a shelf.

As a result, Luo Cheng glared at him, "I, the county lieutenant of the ninth grade, can send it, what can't you send, go!" ”
