Chapter 845: Decoration with lights and gifts, guests and friends are here

To be honest, although I grew up on this land and had sheep here for seven or eight years when I was a child, it is no exaggeration to say that I have traveled all the corners and corners of this mountain. At that time, there were bird nests on the tree, hedgehogs behind the stone, scorpions the most, and dates the sweetest, almost nothing I could not find. However, if I really wanted to search all the graves of all clans by myself today, to be honest, I really can't guarantee that I can find them all. After all, I can remember my grandparents and the graves of my great-grandparents are already good, and I don't even know the name of my great-grandparents.

However, fortunately, he was old, and he knew almost exactly which grave was, how he died, how old he lived, otherwise he would not be allowed to lead the team. There were one in the east and one in the west, anyway, in the end, we almost ran all over the entire mountain, and only then did not leave any left, and finally took care of the graves of all the clans.

When we evacuated from the last small grave in the west of Shanxi, the sun had disappeared and the sky was already dark. The wind on the hill was so exciting that it was blowing. It was like eyes were growing and it kept drilling into your neck. It was so cold that our noses and ears were bursting out. At that moment, it felt like our naked noses and ears were falling off, and we didn't even dare to touch them. We didn't dare to stop for a long time. A few of us laughed and ran down the mountain as we ran away.

Not long after entering the village, I met my third sister-in-law in the backyard at Beidaqiao. She told me that Zitong and the others had all gone to the west courtyard. So I separated from my third uncle and the others and headed straight to the west courtyard. As soon as I entered the gate, I saw Zitong sitting on the sofa in the main hall around the quilt. My sister and a few cousins ​​and cousins ​​were chatting around her. Seeing that they were chatting enthusiastically and without any sense of dissatisfaction, I was very happy. With Zitong's personality, everyone would like it.

A brazier was placed in front of her. The flames were very strong and they rushed up from time to time. She reached her hand on the brazier and baked it. When she saw me coming in, she saw that my face was blue and my nose was snot flowing. She quickly got up and prepared to pour me hot water. My sister grabbed her and got up and ran to pour me a cup of hot water. I held the teacup, warming my hands while quickly drinking "she"

A new screen of the central hall painting was hung on the back wall of the main hall, a picture of the pines and cranes prolonging their lives. The crane had a pair of tall thin legs and a long neck tilted up. It was indescribable, elegant and noble. The pine trees were green and green, set against the white snow, and were very energetic. My mother said that when I bought this painting, I wanted to have a good intention, and hang it at home for auspiciousness, and the pines and cranes were auspicious.

Below the drawing is a table with Eight Immortals placed there. There are several red trays on the table, filled with melon seeds, candy pieces, etc. All the furniture is covered with red double-happy characters cut from red paper, mandarin ducks, butterflies and other patterns as festive marks. The cabinet next to it also contains "happy fruits" and red paper-packed noodles and other items, which are all said.

It was completely dark, and a hundred-watt headlight was pulled up in the yard, making the whole yard clear, as if it was during the day. At this point, the relatives who should be here have arrived. I shuttled through the crowd from time to time to say hello. Some of these relatives I know and often walk around, and some are old relatives, that is, my father, mother's generation, and even my grandparents' generation. I have almost no contact with them. It is no exaggeration to say that I may not know them even when I walk on the street.

Despite this, this family affection has not been destroyed with the departure of the older generation, and has always been there. Therefore, whenever there are any weddings and weddings in each other's family, they will still notify each other. The two families often walk around and come and go on weekdays. After all, they are not far away. They meet on the road from time to time, and they meet them when they are at the market. Since they are relatives, I naturally have to follow my father and mother enthusiastically and say hello one by one. Of course, they praised me one by one. This is to say, look at my second nephew's good schooling, and this is indeed a skill. The second brother and sister-in-law (referring to my father and mother) are now talking about something, and they can be regarded as a helping person (that is, they have received the rewards from their children).

Because the Chinese New Year is approaching, the weather this year is particularly cold. A few days ago, it snowed heavily and it was half melting. It was not easy to walk on the road. In addition, communication is not well developed, and there are very few people with mobile phones. What’s more important is that the contacts in that era were basically one-to-one. It’s impossible for you to tell a person, and everyone will know it immediately.

Also, I came back in a hurry this time, so I didn’t have time to notify some of my classmates in high school and college who had a good time. However, my classmates and junior high school students are all from the hometown, and they are from the same village. They are only ten or twenty miles away. When they are close, they are from the village or the next village. The information communication in a small area is still smooth. When they go to work or go to the market on weekdays, you tell me and I will pass it down to him and you will know it soon. Although I didn’t inform me personally, those who want to come have a good relationship and come from the metropolis.

Let’s talk about high school classmates. Although we all come from the same county, our county is very large. There are about 40 towns and towns in total, from east to west, at least 200 miles away. Unlike a few years later, the transportation is well connected and cars are everywhere. If we really go so far to have a banquet, it will be too time to waste a day on the road. We have to go to the city first, then transfer to the county town, and then go from the county town to our town. It’s a headache to think about it.

Moreover, the most important thing is the difference between most high school students and elementary and junior high schools. I have said before that our high school is a key middle school in JS Province, and the admission rate is still good. Therefore, few of them work at home, most of them go to college, and have formal jobs after graduation, so it is not easy to arrange just in terms of time.

As for college classmates, let alone, they are basically outsiders, from all over the world. Not to mention that it is difficult to buy tickets during the Chinese New Year, even if it is not easy to come, it has nothing to do with the depth of friendship. If we know that others cannot come and still notify them, it will be a bit unauthorized. Think about it, since you have sent a notice, even if they are not, the gifts will always be received. This is the basic human relationship. In fact, marriage is a rare event in life. What we want is the excitement and joy. If others are burdened, what else is there? Just don’t notify them.

Of course, because I was doing well in the student union back then, I had a large circle of social circles and made many friends, especially local ones, which I did intentionally at the beginning. However, like Miao Fence and others, they had already agreed a few days ago that when I go back to the city after the New Year, they would have another re-organized for me.

My classmates and friends will definitely not come here today. Even if they want to come, they will have to come tomorrow morning.

Of course, those who came here today were all relatives, such as those who were direct, including the eldest aunt and four cousins ​​of their family, three cousins, second aunt and two cousins, one cousin, one sibling, third aunt and one cousin, two cousin, eldest aunt and eldest cousin, eldest cousin, eldest uncle, eldest concubine and cousin, third aunt and cousin, second uncle, second concubine and two cousin, one cousin, fourth aunt and two cousin, two cousin, fifth aunt and cousin, cousin, sixth aunt and two cousin, one cousin, sixth aunt and two cousin, one cousin, younger aunt and two cousin, one cousin, younger aunt and two cousin, one cousin, younger aunt and two cousin, one cousin, younger aunt and two cousin, one cousin, younger aunt and two cousin, etc., plus each family has at least one child, at least there are dozens of them, and then they come to the village, my god, they are in a dark place, jumping around, jumping around, and screaming from time to time, which is really uneasy.
