Although Zhang Guiyun tried his best to stay, Zhang Xin still didn't stay to eat, put down the gift, chatted for a while and left.Under his mother's advice, An Zishan sent Zhang Xin to the door of the house, and Zhang Xin kept saying, "No need to send it, Xiaoshan, go back." ”Then, with a smile on his face, he waved his hand and turned to leave, and An Zishan looked at it from afar with a calm face, until his back disappeared at the end of the alley.When he returned to the house, An Ziliang had already opened the gift curiously.A yellow-and-white striped backpack, and a big swallow head on the front of the backpack, Anzi frowned when he saw it.What kind of aesthetic is this?
Buying such a backpack, An Zishan estimated that Zhang Xin listened to his daughter's advice.When Zhu Gege was on the air, many junior high school girls liked Yongqi and Er Kang very much.So Zhang Xin mistakenly thought that boys should like Xiaoyanzi and crape myrtle.But An Zishan was not interested in this, he glanced at An Ziliang, the other party's eyes lit up, and he looked over and over with his backpack, which seemed to be very likely.So he said casually, "This bag is for you, brother." ”An Ziliang's face was shocked, but there was surprise in his eyes that couldn't be concealed, "This bag is so good-looking, don't you want it?"
”"No, I don't like it."
An Zishan said without hesitation."
That's for me?""
Here you go, here you go."
An Ziliang happily carried his backpack back to his room.As soon as he walked to the kitchen door, An Zishan heard his parents chatting about what had just happened.Zhang Guiyun said: "What is the purpose of Zhang Xin saying that Zhang Xin suddenly gave a birthday gift to his child?
”An Jiaye sneered and said, "What else can this be for?
It's not like you don't know what happened in the vegetable garden.If you do something wrong, you can't be a sycophant, what kind of person Zhang Xin is, who doesn't know?
”"He has made a lot of money over the years, and now he thinks about this official, and he can be promoted again."
Zhang Guiyun was stunned for a moment, and said with a puzzled expression: "What's the use of him wanting to be promoted to give gifts to our children?"
Don't go and send it to those big officials. ”An Jiaye glanced at Zhang Guiyun speechlessly, and said with some hatred: "Then I will definitely not be promoted with a schoolbag!"
Don't build a good relationship first. ”"Oh", Zhang Guiyun sighed a little incomprehensibly.An Zishan, who stood at the door and listened secretly for a while, couldn't cry or laugh, there are so many things that parents worry about, and so many ways can be interpreted just by sending a schoolbag.He didn't know what Zhang Xin's purpose was, but he wanted to be good friends with his family.An Zishan's family is not too particular about eating, there is no tradition that each meal must have a few dishes and a few soups, there are generally no dishes in the case of eating dumplings, for An Zishan, it is enough to have a plate of garlic mixed with shredded carrots that he loves to eat.Even if you don't have this dish, it's good to have a small bowl of garlic to dip in.As for the birthday cake or something, An Zishan has never eaten it at this time.There is no such thing as blowing out candles and making wishes, which An Zishan only learned after he went to college in his previous life.Celebrating a birthday at home is a family gathering together, and the mother cooks a delicious meal, which is happy and lively.The first birthday after rebirth passed simply and warmly.The next day, the 23rd of the lunar month, the lunar year, the weather was clear.At eight o'clock in the morning, the bright morning sun sprinkled down, spread on the red tile roof and the pressurized water well in the yard, a thin layer, but a little warm.Xiao Nian does not refer to a single day.Because the customs vary from place to place, the days called "small years" are also different.The main folk activities on this day are dust sweeping and sacrificial stoves, and in the past, the cleaning began at this time of the year.The folk tradition of the small year is the twenty-fourth day of the lunar month, and this is the case in most parts of the south.However, since the middle and late Qing Dynasty, the emperor's family has held a ceremony to worship the sky on the 23rd day of the lunar month, in fact, the main reason is to save expenses, and by the way, the king of the stove also worshipped.Therefore, since then, most of the northern regions have followed suit, celebrating the New Year one day earlier on the 23rd day of the lunar month.Steamed rice from Zhang Guiyun for breakfast, then stewed cabbage vermicelli with pork, the vermicelli are sweet potato flour made from sweet potatoes, and the big enamel bowl holds half a bowl of hot, fragrant white rice, and then poured cabbage vermicelli and soup on it.The rich fragrance came to her nose, since An Zishan remembered, the breakfast in the morning of the new year was like this, An Zishan asked Zhang Guiyun curiously, it is said that it has been such a custom since she can remember, as for why she doesn't know, just listen to the old man, so good!
The good thing is, I don't know, honest farmers, there is a simple simplicity, as long as there is a good thing to say, a good omen, will do it, just try to be good.After breakfast, An Jiaye arranged tasks for the brothers with high interest, An Ziliang was responsible for cleaning the windows of the east house and the hall house, and An Zishan was responsible for cleaning the windows of the middle room.As for the kitchen window, because the smoke was too heavy, Zhang Guiyun didn't worry about handing it over to the two brothers, so she went to wipe it herself, not only that, but she would boil a large pot of hot water and wash all the dishes and dishes in the cabinet that had not been used for a year.An Jiaye's task is more detailed, cleaning several rooms is his, and some corners of the roof will have spider webs, and there will be many flies and mosquitoes hanging on the spider webs for a year.These need to be cleaned, and he will take a bamboo pole with a broom tied to his head and carefully clean them.There is also a yard, which is also the point, until the rebirth in the previous life, in An Zishan's memory, his father maintained this good habit, and when he was cleaning in the early years, the yard at home was almost spotless.Farm tools and miscellaneous things will be arranged and placed neatly, and even a thin layer of sand will be spread in the yard.In Zhang Guiyun's words, Anjiaye will be clean for a few days, and as soon as the New Year passes, it will slowly become chaotic again.In An Zishan's memory, his parents are actually people with a sense of ritual, especially during the Chinese New Year.Many of his strengths and habits are inherited from his parents, he is careful, has a sense of ritual in life, and is modest.The family cleaned up all day, and when An Zishan and An Ziliang cleaned the windows, they were fighting from time to time, and the dirty water was flying all over the sky, and their noses and faces were a little blue, but they didn't care.Rural children are very durable, after the heavy snow, many people play snowball fights, their hands are frozen and don't care, so that many children after the snowball fight, their hands are covered with chilblains, adults don't care anymore, let them itch for a few days and slowly it's fine.New Year's dinner or eat dumplings, boiled dumplings first to worship the king of the stove, and then can be eaten, after dinner An Jiaye took a stack of red couplet paper and went out with a smile.As usual, the An brothers continued to teach Zhang Guiyun to read and write after she finished cleaning up the kitchen, and An Zishan was happy to find that after such a long time of teaching, the other party already knew most of the commonly used Chinese characters.Even if you don't know it, you can learn to look it up in the dictionary yourself.As for handwriting, my name can now be written very smoothly, although the handwriting is not very beautiful.But this is already a huge improvement for Zhang Guiyun.At nine o'clock in the evening, An Jiaye came back happily with the written Spring Festival couplets, and a stack of Spring Festival couplets rolled into a thin round barrel shape was held in his hand.An Jiaye spread the Spring Festival couplets on the kang with an excited face, and the An brothers surrounded him and pointed at the handwriting on them."
You two don't move, don't mess with me!"
Seeing the brothers facing their cherished pairs of hands and feet, An Jiaye furrowed his brows and reprimanded with a straight face.I took a pair of scissors from the panda brand black and white TV, carefully cut it according to the couplets of the door and the door hairpin, and cut out the Fu characters and words one by one, carefully check them one by one, and after there is no missing, I put them away carefully with confidence.As for pasting the Spring Festival couplets, it will have to wait until the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month.
