Chapter 266: The First Break of the New Year
We giggled and laughed, and Yonghui looked the same as usual. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info We naturally don't know that after the frightening period, the people in the old house have different thoughts and ideas, and we don't know that someone is watching secretly.
Sometimes ignorance may be a kind of happiness, and the people at this time know very little about this society, let alone many distractions. Although there is some barbarism in the vulgarity, and even some ignorance in ignorance, the people who gradually have to solve the problem of food and clothing have a lot of hope in their hearts.
A young boy like me who has just transformed, or even a girl like Niu Yonghui, everyone grew up in this simple countryside, and naturally their ears and eyes are all the thoughts of the villagers. Although I have seen some of the world, it is only between Xiang County. Yonghui has never even been to the county, and in this environment, all they are thinking about is nothing more than some small things.
To say that for growth, I am naturally relatively precocious, and sometimes I even feel that Yonghui does not know as much as Huijiang. I naturally saw it at this time, Yonghui's laughter was to hide my imcaution, and also to prevent me from talking too much at that time. But I understood her tricks, or subconsciously shyness, of course, I didn't care at all, and I pretended not to know.
But looking at Yonghui's cautious arrangement and feeling a little uneasy about her own arrangement, I was still very moved in my heart. At this time, there was no discomfort in the early morning of the first day of the new year because of the absence of the family. In fact, it is very strange that I didn't think of them at this time, but I felt that Yonghui was my family, and everything was so natural.
Of course, I didn't feel a sense of selfishness because of my closeness to her. At least at this time, even if we were extremely close, I just felt in my heart that it was all about that. If Yonghui wasn't by my side, or as natural as me, I would have felt that everything was not normal. To my surprise, at this time, I suddenly thought of Uncle Luo.
Although I was not able to celebrate the New Year with him, he went to the provincial capital, and he did not even reunite with all his children, but at this moment I thought of him inexplicably. I don't know if it was because of this period of contact, or if I fully felt that he accepted me and taught me some skills that others didn't know. But one thing I'm almost certain of is that he's been deeply imprinted into my mind.
Whether it was the strangeness they encountered with Shuyuan that day, or the thrilling horror last night, I knew that if it weren't for Uncle Luo's figure, I would have been so scared that I couldn't even imagine it.
Originally, at this time of year, the first time to get up must be to pay New Year's greetings to grandparents first, and then the elders and neighbors of the surrounding family. In addition, although my grandparents are in the next village, they are actually only separated by a field, so they usually go to the first day of the new year to pay their New Year's greetings. Grandparents don't like Zhang Luo, and there are generally no regular visitors in the first year of junior high school, but grandparents' houses will be full of friends. So in previous years, I would go to my grandfather's house for dinner on the first day of the new year, and everyone spent it together in the excitement.
But this year is obviously not the same, not only are the grandparents not at home for the New Year, but even the parents are not around. To say that there are many direct elders in the family, but I always feel a little close. If you want to say that I don't want to squeak, everyone will definitely believe it, because I didn't even go to my grandparents' house for the Chinese New Year. According to the meaning of the arrangement of the old lady of the Niu family, I wanted to go to the Niu family on the morning of the first day of the new year.
It's not that Lao Ling's mother relied on her age and her relationship with my grandmother to put pressure on these juniors. But after all, the New Year is spent in Niu's house, and we have a custom here that the first day of the New Year pays attention to the direction of travel. Because this direction contains the gossip of the five elements, and even the luck of all aspects, she is not afraid of my uncle and grandfather.
Yonghui has a lot of things to do in the first month, although there are several brothers and sisters in the family, but there are really a lot of things that need her to be busy, so she is rare and leisurely, and she is happy to be with me. Of course, she was still relatively young before, and there were many things that she didn't understand very well, and at that time, she felt like a relative to me. But as I have grown up over the years, and my family sometimes says something in front of me, I naturally have some small calculations in my heart.
However, she has been kind since she was a child, and she still maintains that sincerity in her heart. I vaguely know that my father likes Yonghui, and that's because Yonghui has no scheming since she was a child. Grandma liked Yonghui, and that was because Yonghui not only looked like her grandmother when she was young, but also treated my grandma closer than her nieces. As for my love of Yonghui, I sometimes find it inexplicable for no reason.
Later, I gradually understood that this is a habit. When I was used to Yonghui since I was a child, although I can't say that the two have no guesses, at least they often live together. When this habit gradually becomes natural, and we grow up, we realize that some of them cannot lose each other. I don't know what she thinks in her heart, but at least I want to see her often.
In fact, she has gradually understood more in the past two years, the small village is not big but calm. What happens every day, which family has a story, it doesn't take half a day for the whole village to know. She may not follow the ideas of her family, but no one will have some longing in her heart. According to her own thoughts, if I didn't want to see her, she would naturally gradually distance herself from me.
But what the Niu family didn't expect was that even Yonghui herself didn't expect that I was not only still close to her, but even closer than when I was a child. This obviously made Yonghui feel a little surprised, and even the Niu family was also a little relieved. What I naturally didn't know was that the Niu family really wanted to introduce Yonghui to a cousin of mine when she became an adult, because in their opinion, it was still good for the younger generations of the Niu family to continue to be close to my family.
This kind of feudal and even ridiculous idea was deeply rejected by me for a while. But when I gradually got to know more about the society, I understood the cruelty of many helplessness in life, and naturally I also understood the state of mind of the Niu family. Of course, I think the Niu family understands this, and my grandparents should understand this better. But everyone pretended not to know, and later I learned that there are many things in life that cannot be broken.
Later, I felt that perhaps with the changes of the times, people felt the fragility of this relationship. Because in the township, don't talk about cousins or cousins, even brothers have a lot of counter-goals because of petty profits. Everyone downplayed the words that Yonghui was implicated with one of my cousins, firstly, Yonghui gradually grew up, and secondly, it was indeed the Niu family who was watching whether my family continued to treat them.
In this era of rapid change, the gap between family life is rapidly widening. Although several sports have had a huge impact on my family, the good resources and cultural atmosphere still make the distance between my family and the lives of the villagers bigger and bigger. The Niu family seems to have found a reason again, and after Niu Yongzhen was introduced by my father and got the opportunity to learn to drive in the village, they once again got close to the relationship between the two families through the little Yonghui.
For Yonghui to be older than me, the Niu family didn't think about this. Because no matter how my family helps the Niu family, or a certain child of the Niu family, this is the biggest thought in the heart of the people who are the children of the Niu family. If Yonghui were to say herself, she might not know this cause and effect at all. Especially whether my father values her and finds her a certain job, or whether I grow up and recognizes Yonghui, the Niu family actually doesn't care at all, what they need is to share the honor and disgrace with my family.
What they care about is my grandparents' feelings for Yonghui and their recognition of the Niu family for decades. Later, I thought that this might have something to do with Lao Lingpo's education. Although many of the children of the Niu family are not in contact with my family now, the descendants who follow Lao Lingpo's side still reveal the closeness they deserve. Only now that my parents' acceptance of Yonghui may affect Yonghui's future.
Of course, what I don't know is that at this time, regardless of whether the Niu family has considered Yonghui's future marriage or not, it seems very simple to them, no matter where Yonghui and I will go in the future, at least my closeness to Yonghui is beyond my sister and brother or even ordinary relatives. This incident made my grandparents watch, and let my parents know clearly that it was a good thing for Yonghui and the Niu family.
Because they know not only my father, but also my grandfather and grandmother.
Of course, this is not the Niu family using our family, but in this ever-changing era, relying on a family with a social foundation is the most basic instinct of all people, not to mention the relationship between the Niu family and my family for decades. Not to mention that they have this idea, as long as my family has this ability, my family will not hesitate to help them.
At this time, I didn't feel anything wrong with Yonghui in the slightest, and I even felt happy to be with her. The Niu family gave me a feeling of closeness, even beyond the feeling of relatives outside the family. We laughed for a while, as if we had forgotten the horror of last night, it was as if it were just a dream. It wasn't until we heard the smell of the neighbors' breakfast in our noses that Yonghui panicked and found a pair of very long cotton socks for me to put on.
Then we cleaned up the room, and after making sure there was nothing negligent and that there was little less movement outside, she took me out to her house.
There didn't seem to be many people outside, because many people had to eat breakfast before going out to pay their respects, so most people stayed at home to eat at this time. This avoids the embarrassment of us encountering people, because the old man is particular about the direction of the New Year's greetings, and if you don't give the New Year's greetings at the first sight of the New Year, it is a great faux pas and disrespect.
We walked to Niu's house like a smoke, but Yonghui walked slowly, which made me look at her with some surprise. Maybe when I looked at her, there was no heart and no expression, which made her blush and white at me.
I smiled silly at her, and after reaching out to hold her hand, she didn't break away from my hand, but let me pull it home.
What we didn't notice was that somewhere in Hongzheng Hall, a pair of eyes were hiding somewhere, watching our backs leave thoughtfully. By the time we looked back, the eyes were gone.
"Xiaohe, why do I have a strange feeling, as if someone is watching us?" An inexplicable feeling rose in Yonghui's heart, and she didn't feel that her feeling was real. (To be continued.) )
