In the early morning, Liu Qingshan and Li Tie had already gotten up and ran slowly towards the mountain.

The two of them were spraying white breath, and a layer of white frost was quickly hung on their eyebrows and hats.

The wilderness was covered with silver and white, the earth was silent, and only the sound of creaking and stomping on snow was ringing.

But Liu Qingshan knew that all the vitality was nurtured by the earth under the snow.

When I passed by the ginseng garden, I saw Jacky Cheung leading the guards to sort out a shed.

This was a wild boar that fell from the mountain last night. Fortunately, it was discovered early, otherwise the ginseng seedlings in the shed would have to nourish the body of the wild boar.

Wild boars have an iron stomach. No matter what they are, they are poisonous or not, and they can be digested by eating them.

They eat in the forest all year round and often eat a lot of herbs, so the common people say that wild boar belly is better for treating stomach problems.

Zhang Dashuai and his team were all covered tightly, with dog-skin hats on their heads and big sluts on their feet, each of them was like the Anti-Japanese Allied Army soldiers in the snow field in Linhai.

Liu Qingshan and the others greeted each other and helped to get the shed ready, then continued to go up the mountain.

"Through the forest, cross the snow field, the air soars to the sky..."

Behind him, Zhang Dashuai's loud singing voice came, exuding a sense of heroism.

When he arrived at Mukeling, Big Bear glanced at Liu Qingshan and rolled over.

Liu Qingshan stuffed some food into its mouth and looked around. He didn't see the female bear, so he patted the bear's head: "Why did you lose your wife?"

Big Bear doesn’t care about these things, it’s delicious to eat.

It is estimated that the female bear still retained its original habits and had already started hibernating.

When the morning exercise was over, the two brothers had breakfast at Mu Keling. Liu Qingshan tentatively asked the mute grandfather:

"Master, it's still not very convenient on the mountain, why don't you go to my house to live?"

The steamed buns held in the mute grandfather paused in his mouth, looked at the apprentice calmly, and then did not nod or shake his head, and continued to eat the steamed buns silently.

Liu Qingshan no longer mentioned this, but he had already made arrangements in his heart.

When he finished his meal and went home, his mother had already prepared something for him and went to visit his father's grave.

Datou and Erbiaozi also happened to come to find him, and Li Tie and the four of them went together.

When they went out, Xiaohuo and Xiaoyue had to follow him, but were coaxed back by Linzhi.

According to rural customs, children who are too young usually do not go to the cemetery.

After leaving the village, I was strolling and arrived at the village cemetery in a short while. Under the snow, small white bags rose up on the ground.

When he came to his father's grave, he cleaned the snow in front of him, and Liu Qingshan took out the red paper and pressed it on the grave.

Datou and the others worked together to put the steamed buns, apples and other tributes on them. Liu Qingshan lit three incense sticks, prayed silently for a while, and then inserted the incense on the snow.

Datou and the others retreated aside, Liu Qingshan lit yellow paper, and flames rose up, which looked particularly eye-catching on the white snowfield.

Liu Qingshan added yellow papers to the fire, and tears flowed down his eyes involuntarily.

How good would it be if my father was alive?

But there is no if in this world, the deceased has gone and the coming can be pursued. This nostalgia will always be treasured in the depths of memory.

In life, you still have to look forward.

After the flames were completely extinguished, Liu Qingshan's mood had returned to peace and he had figured out something.

The brothers walked back four times and walked a hundred meters away. Li Tie suddenly turned around and the others turned to look over. They saw a red figure at the place where they had just worshiped, which was particularly eye-catching.

"Sanfeng, can't it be the red fox in your family?" Erbiaozi asked in a trembling voice. The villagers still maintained awe of this fox who knows how to drink.

"Go back and take a look!" Datou muttered and was about to run back.

As a result, Liu Qingshan was dragged down: "Yes or no, it doesn't matter anymore. We must learn to let go of some things."

Looking at Liu Qingshan taking the lead in walking back, Datou and Er Biaozi could only follow him, but they were a little confused about Liu Qingshan's words just now.

When I got home, my grandmother had already prepared the newspaper, and my mother Linzhi had also made the paste, so my brothers and others started to make walls and sheds.

They are all rural children, and they have been doing this since childhood. They are familiar with each other. They brush the big head and hand over paper. Liu Qingshan and Li Tie are holding brooms and are responsible for sticking newspapers to the roof.

Xiao Liuzi also led Xiaohuo and Xiao Yueyue to work hard. They basically helped out, with plasters on their clothes and faces.

After muffling the ceiling and then muffling the wall, it was almost done. It was swish, and in a short time, the whole house was completely refreshed.

Lin Zhi smiled and took out a few New Year pictures. Liu Qingshan was also happy when he saw it: they were all fat boys and fat girls, wearing small bellybands, which was very festive.

After cleaning up the house, grandpa Liu Shikui brought in and picked up the new kang mat and replaced the old ones, which made the big raccoon cat on the kang very dissatisfied and scratched the kang mat with its claws.

Xiao Yueyue went to pull the cat's tail: "Don't make trouble with big flowers."

The big raccoon cat raised its paws, turned its head and saw that it was Xiao Yueyue, so it put down its paws. They grew up together and slept in bed every day.

The mother touched the room and said, "Sanfeng, there is no wedding photo yet."

There is no popular wedding photos yet, but in life events like marriage, the two of them still have to go to the photo studio and take a photo together.

Liu Qingshan was really prepared for this. He looked through the luggage bag he brought back and then took out a colorful photo.

It was a photo of Liu Qingshan and Wu Tong. Liu Qingshan was wearing a Chinese stand-up collar, full of energy and heroic posture; Wu Tong was wearing a traditional red dress with a smile as flowers and gentle as water.

In the lower right corner of the photo, there is also a line of small characters "Peking University Photo Studio".

"It's so good." Lin Zhi exclaimed, then began to look for the frame and put the big photo in it alone.

"It's OK, just wait for the bride to enter the door." Erbiaozi shouted with a smile.

As for furniture and household appliances, I won’t live here for a long time anyway, so I’ll just use the original one.

Linzhi cooked a few dishes. After dinner, she saw that the branch secretary and Da Zhangluo and others were coming. There were more than ten people in total. There were a row of people sitting on the edge of the kang and the stools were also full.

Liu Qingshan took out a cigarette, and then Zhang Ganzi snatched it: "I'll help you spread it."

I sent everyone a circle, and half of the box was left, and Zhang Ganzi happily put it into his pocket.

The old branch secretary didn't smoke cigarettes, and he slashed his little pipe: "Qingshan, your marriage is a major event in our Jiapigou, and we must handle it well."

Da Zhangluo even took out a notebook and a pencil tip: "Qingshan, there are many things, I'll talk to you first."

"It's a bit far away to pick up the bride. It takes us all day to drive from here to Chuncheng. We can't pick it up the first day?"

This is indeed a big problem. When getting married in rural areas, it is usually from nearby villages, and the bride is brought back by a carriage.

The distance is basically in the county, with four wheels or big trucks.

At this time, Zhang Ganzi expressed his opinion: "It would be great if he could fly, that's fast."

"Don't be careless, we don't have an airport here, where can the plane land?" Captain Zhang glared at the guy.

Zhang Ganzi has a trick: "When the time comes, I'll just get two parachutes and ask Qingshan and his partner to jump to the skydiving."

"Stay there quickly, don't pull those irrelevant." The old branch secretary raised his foot and wanted to kick it, and then Zhang Ganzi hid aside with a smile.

Liu Qingshan also blinked twice: He really didn't think about this problem, it was a bit difficult to deal with.

However, in this regard, there are also customs in rural areas. We will make a big decision as the principal and express our opinions:

"You can find a family with relatives and friends in the town or county, and ask your parents to come here in advance, and then go to the house to pick up the bride. But don't forget to tell Wu Tong that when you leave, throw a few dollars on the kang."

Liu Qingshan's eyes lit up: "Okay, this is a good idea, so don't bother with the county or town, just let's go to Jiapigou!"

Erbiaozi interrupted with a smile: "It's useless for Sanfeng, you're worried. You can't enter the bridal chamber until it gets dark."

Everyone laughed, and then they rushed to be their mother's family and asked Wu Tong to live in his own home.

Of course, it's not about the few dollars, but about rushing to help.

Finally, the kidnapped grandfather said, "Don't rob anyone, I'll live in my house when I call Tongyao!"

The kidnapped grandfather is respectful and no one dares to rob him anymore. The first thing is to be sure.

Turning back, Liu Qingshan called Wu Tong, communicated, and asked her and her family to come one day in advance.

Da Zhangluo began to talk about the second thing again: "At that time, there will definitely be many relatives and friends coming, so you have to prepare for this banquet."

"No problem, the big fat pig in my pig farm has been ready for a long time!" Zhang Ganzi was excited again.

"You can't just eat pork, chicken, duck, fish, etc., you have to prepare it early." Captain Zhang expressed his opinion.

"There are vegetables, we have a greenhouse, so don't worry." Datou also came up with an idea.

The owner of the car also interrupted: "If you want fish, wait for me to contact the reservoir and come to catch the winter two days in advance."

"There are also wild vegetable factories that can provide mountain delicacies." Yi Hongying also strongly supported it.

Lu Xiaolong was a little anxious: "Our pharmaceutical factory can do it too..."

"Haha, your pharmaceutical factory should forget it." Everyone laughed. The guests couldn't come, so I handed over two pills first?

Lu Xiaolong turned his eyes: "Our pharmaceutical factory is responsible for providing medicinal tea, which is just right for guests."

OK, you have a lot of thought. Speaking of this, Da Zhanglu discussed with Liu Qingshan what level to use for tobacco, alcohol, sugar, tea, etc., and how many dishes to prepare at the banquet, whether it is eight to eight or six to six.

Liu Qingshan was so angry: "Uncle Zhang Luo, these guys just look at the arrangements. The standards are higher, so I will be responsible for paying the money."

Linzhi even expressed support for her son's words with practical actions and took out a few bundles of money:
