Chapter 767: Shall we go see the window grilles together?
Today, Luo Mingyue, Anfu, Gu Yan, and Liu Bai are here. They are quiet and make no sound.
"By the way, I told Liu Bai before that we should not neglect to ask him to come and have the New Year's Eve dinner with us." Song Ting told him to ask Shi Yan to call him in the evening.
"it is good."
During the Chinese New Year, the smell in the village is fragrant, and every household smells of meat.
Song Tingran's family ate very well every day, and it was even more abundant during the Chinese New Year. Even Manfu couldn't swallow the leftovers.
So today Song Tingran decided to make up for it a little at noon, not cook so many dishes, and cook a New Year's Eve dinner in the evening, which would save a lot of waste.
When passing by the book school, they saw Zhao Yu and Xu Chun ironing chicken feathers at the door.
"Sister Zhao, Happy New Year!"
Zhao Yu looked over, wiped his hands, and came over to greet you, "Happy New Year, oh, your family is like the adults in the palace. You don't care about your face. I really don't dare to recognize you."
Zhao Yu was right. Everyone in Song Tingran's family was really dressed grandly today. If it was a fashion week, they would just walk on the catwalk.
"Sister Zhao, don't laugh at me. Your clothes are also newly made. They look really good."
What Zhao Yu wears today is different from usual. On weekdays, because he drives cattle carts, he wears sturdy clothes that are resistant to wear and tear. Today, he is wearing a double-breasted robe with Baoxiang patterns.
"I didn't like it at first, but Yu Jing said it looked good, and now that the New Year is good, I bought it." Zhao Yu was happy, and you could see the smile on his face.
Nowadays, Zhao Yu's family is much better off than before, but she doesn't have much time to dress up, and she always thinks that driving the cattle cart and getting dressed is a waste, and she is used to being simple.
Song Tingran held Zhao Yu's hand with both hands, "I see, Yu Jing's taste is much better than that of my sister. From now on, I will dress like this, and I will be a proper flower of wealth in the world."
"By the name of my sister, are you going to town?" Zhao Yu was confused, but he didn't see the carriage.
"No, I just want to take a walk and go to the resort. I heard that Village Chief Zhou specially asked someone to cut the window grilles and put them up at the resort. Let's go together."
Zhao Yu waved his hand naturally and said that he had to deal with chickens and ducks at home, so he wouldn't go there just yet. He would wait until he was busy and go check it out later.
Song Tingran knew that Zhao Yu's family had always been like this. The family's population was not large and everything they ate was prepared, so she left with her husband.
"Shi Yan, I'm not going to your parents' house today. I'll check it out tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. I'll go back with you specially."
The statue of Song Tingran at the head of the village was clean, and someone took turns wiping it.
"It's okay, my wife, I always go there on weekdays. It doesn't matter if you don't go, we will just have a good New Year at home."
Shi Yan really didn't care about this because he could always go back to his parents' home. Even if he was attending school sometimes, his family would always send him things.
Before the Chinese New Year, I also sent New Year gifts there, so it really doesn’t matter whether I go or not during the Chinese New Year.
Qiao Jinshu also feels the same way. He used to go back to his parents' home for more than ten days at a time, but now he doesn't look forward to it that much.
Every day in the school, morning and evening, he can see his eldest sister Qiao Xin and her three children.
In the resort, Qiao Xin's husband was also there, especially after becoming the acting village chief of Shiqing Village, he came more frequently. It was naturally very convenient to give things away.
Qiao Jinshu had long stopped liking the glutinous rice cakes Qiao Xin brought every time. If Wen Li hadn't liked them, he would have told his sister not to give them to her again.
Sometimes, Qiao Jinshu really wondered if his family had moved to Daniu Village but they just didn't tell him.
Almost all the people on the road were acquaintances, everyone greeted each other warmly and said auspicious words, and they were having a good time.
In comparison, Qin Gener's home seemed deserted. She was sawing wood in the yard, with a small bag of candy hanging around her waist.
This thing is expensive and not enough to eat. She doesn't buy it on weekdays. She accidentally knew that children would come to visit during the Chinese New Year, so she prepared some. This year is her first New Year in Daniu Village. , although she misses her family, she is also happy, this is a new beginning.
In the past, when Daniu Village was poor, during the Chinese New Year, the adults would also prepare some small potatoes and the like so that the children would not be left empty-handed. Especially poor families who could not bring them would open their doors to greet each other.
Now, it’s different. Every household gives candy.
"Gen'er, Happy New Year, this guy who celebrates the New Year is still cutting wood?" Song Tingran shouted loudly.
Qin Gen'er was very happy and immediately put down the ax in her hand. The door was not closed. She just hoped that someone could come, but she didn't know if everyone liked her, so she didn't dare to go out to pay New Year greetings rashly.
"Happy New Year, Boss, you look so good." Qin Gen'er has never dressed so gorgeously before, and she really thinks she looks good.
"Thank you, but you are too hardworking and don't take a break after the New Year. I see that your new fence is almost done. Sure enough, it looks brand new and makes you feel good."
Qin Gen'er is also very satisfied with the newly built fence. Before, it was a short fence, and tall people could walk in quickly. Now it's better, and it looks like home.
"Thank you for this, boss. Without the few big and strong trees you gave me, at the rate I'm going, I'd probably have to wait until spring. How could I have rushed them out before the Chinese New Year?"
Song Tingran and Qin Gen'er were talking here, while Xiao Yuchen was looking at the fence and thought it was very good, strong and beautiful.
"Gen'er, it's boring for you to celebrate the New Year alone. Why don't you come over to your house in the evening and let's have New Year's Eve dinner together and have a good time."
"No, boss, I bought a lot of food and prepared it. I won't go there."
Song Tingran invited her again, but Qin Gener still declined politely. She knew her temperament, so she really didn't want to go.
"Okay then, are you going to the resort? I heard there are window grilles, let's go and take a look."
Qin Gen'er was moved. It was still early. She was chopping firewood at home just to kill time and not make her look so lonely.
"Sure, let's go take a look."
With the addition of Qin Gen'er to the large army, when meeting people to greet each other, everyone would also greet each other with Qin Gen'er. No matter they are familiar or unfamiliar, they are all very friendly.
Qin Gen'er was so moved that her eyes were filled with soreness, and she looked elsewhere, not wanting to be discovered.
However, it was difficult not to be discovered. Sang Cheng saw it almost immediately. He didn't say anything, but quietly pulled Song Tingran and pointed at Qin Gen'er.
"Gen'er, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, boss. I just accidentally lost my eyesight."
