The latest website: They came to this village not long ago, and they often lived their lives behind closed doors. They were only familiar with the villagers, and no one would visit the house on the first day of the new year.
After the boys gave them New Year's greetings, one of them received the lucky money, and they went away happily.
For Pei Xiu, as long as the family is happy together, it doesn't matter where they are.
The atmosphere of the New Year in Ning County continued until the Shangyuan Festival finally reached its peak, and there was also a lantern festival in Ning County.
On the fifteenth day, parents who dote on their children will take their children out to see the lanterns. That is, in rural areas, it is not safe and inconvenient to go back and forth at night, so few people in the village go to Ning County.
Everyone in the early morning got up excitedly. Zhou Heng went to their study and crossed out the word fifteen on the paper before grinning, "It's fifteenth today, the New Year's Day is here."
Zhou Yong rolled his eyes, watching him cross out a number every day.
Whoever asks him to be good at everything, he can only read the endorsement twice, even if the technique is not good. I can only use this stupid method, write all the dates on paper, and cross out today's date every day.
Hu Zi didn't think there was anything wrong with this. He crossed out one every day. Seeing the date approaching day by day, he was also looking forward to it, "I don't know when Uncle Qiu will come over."
"Let's wait at the door?" Zhou Heng couldn't wait to go to the door to have a look.
"How can it be so early, to see Uncle Zhou that we got up so early to sit at the door, we have to run another 20 laps." Zhou Shan stopped him and didn't let him go.
The eldest nodded, "That's right, it's so hard to run when the snow is all over the calf. It's rare that my father has been so kind recently, and he didn't let us get up and run in circles, so don't go to the door to get in his way."
"Then practice calligraphy." The second child said calmly.
The boss and Huzi looked at this guy in horror, "Practicing calligraphy..."
It's hard to go to the provincial capital today, but he actually let them write?
The two shook their heads like a rattle, and said in unison, "No."
The second child spread his hands, "Who made everyone so excited, and got up so early, even the parents haven't got up yet."
Hu Zi looked at the wall with his back and his heels on the wall, and twitched the corners of his mouth, "Then I don't want to write, I'd rather go for a lap."
Everyone looked at him in disbelief.
Hu Zi looked at them innocently again.
The boss propped his chin, "I'd rather sit in a daze, then go for a lap."
Zhou Heng said with a smile on his face, "Brother Huzi, can I count it for you?"
"Then I'm still on the 18th lap when I run out of breath."
"Hahaha......"
The boss slammed the table with a laugh.
When Dad told them to run laps before, they ran all eighteen laps, and he still recited the words eighteen. After 20 laps, he was at the end and asked if he was eighteen?
"I counted for you at the beginning, didn't I run slowly after you, I'm only on the eighteenth lap after you run, that's right, don't laugh." Zhou Heng stared at these people with wide eyes.
Later, he learned to be good, no matter whether he ran slower than them, anyway, he stopped when they stopped, regardless of whether he only had 18 laps.
They heard such a big movement two rooms apart, and no one knew that they were all up.
Zhou Cheng knocked on the door, "When you wake up, come out and make a noise inside."
Everyone was quiet now, and went out obediently.
"The sun is out, go and take Xiaobai out to bask in the sun." Zhou Cheng rarely spoke to them gently.
Instead of running laps or asking them to recite and write, they are all happy now.
Pei Xiu got up early in the morning and dressed herself up. Her hair was half pulled and she only used a silver hairpin. She was wearing a cyan jacket and a green Confucian skirt. The collar and cuffs of her clothes were surrounded by white rabbit fur. Fair-faced, looking much younger and more beautiful.
Opening the door to go out, everyone was dumbfounded.
"Mother, you are so beautiful." Zhou Heng ran over to his mother in amazement and said loudly.
The others nodded sharply. They were used to seeing my aunt wearing a coarse cloth dress. I didn't expect that I changed clothes today and was so beautiful that I almost didn't recognize him.
Zhou Cheng's eyes straightened, he strode forward and pulled Zhou Heng away, took her back into the room, and locked the door.
"What are you doing, the children are watching, why are you taking me back to the house." Pei Xiu was embarrassed by him, and the children were watching, what did they think.
"Well, change your clothes, you're wearing too much." After speaking, he couldn't help but glanced a few more times, "I'm going out first."
Zhou Heng was still standing there dumbfounded, looking at the closed and opened door.
Zhou Cheng glanced at him, "Why are you still looking at it, running laps if you don't want to ride a horse."
"Oh ride, ride."
"Come on..."
They shoved to lead the horse.
Pei Xiu was depressed in the room alone. Which woman doesn't want to dress up beautifully every day. I finally made a piece of clothes that I liked, but I can't wear it anymore. Hey, who asked the husband to stay in the village, let's put on old clothes, it's more like a peasant woman.
The door was pushed open again, and Zhou Cheng walked in and looked at her apologetically, "I'll wear it later. I'll make more beautiful clothes then, you can wear whatever you want. Let's keep a low profile now."
"Well, I know, I was looking forward to it too much, so I thought about dressing up. I haven't been to the Lantern Festival yet." After she figured it out, she nodded understandingly.
"Prepare things. Let's go when Qiu Baize comes."
"It's all good, we'll be back after staying for one night, and we don't need to bring anything."
"Well, let's go out to eat first."
By the time they came back from their walk, they had finished eating.
"Father and mother, why don't you wait for us to eat?" Zhou Yong said.
It was Zhou Shan's sharp eyes, "Why doesn't my aunt wear the previous outfit, it looks good."
"That's something I made new~ I just tried it on my upper body for you to see. There are still some areas that need to be modified. I will wear it next time. Go wash your hands and eat quickly." She found a reason, perfunctory, and then Help them make porridge.
Zhou Heng didn't forget to look at the door while eating, "Mother, when will Uncle Qiu come..."
Zhou Yong asked Pei Xiu expectantly, "Mother, how long are we going to stay at Uncle Qiu's house?"
"Do you want to stay for a few days, can you stay longer?" Zhou Cheng said angrily.
"No, how can we live for a long time, our surname is Zhou, how can we live in someone else's house for a long time," the boss said righteously.
After he finished speaking, he buried himself in the meal without saying a word. Everyone looked at him with contempt, and he lowered his head and stared at him one by one.
Looking at these children, Zhou Cheng also felt that his head was too big. He shook his head and went to the stable to prepare more grain and beans for Xiao Bai, otherwise no one would feed him when they left.
Just a moment later, they saw a person riding a horse from a distance, waving and screaming, jumping and jumping.
