Siheyuan: I Raised Ten Thousand Wild Boars

The atmosphere of the New Year is getting stronger and stronger, and big red lanterns are hung in the streets and alleys.

Every household also started to spend lavishly. Even the most frugal and reluctant to eat people would try to be generous at this time.

The second aunt in the backyard came home happily with a small basket in her hand. Not only did she buy half a pound of meat today, she also bought a fish, planning to stew it on New Year's Eve so that she could have a drink with her husband.

Xu Damao's house was a bit exaggerated. I don't know where they got it from, but there were two lively old hens, a killed duck, a large piece of meat, and other things. The whole pile was like a small mountain. I really envy the people in the courtyard.

I knew he was a projectionist in the countryside, but I thought he was a purchasing agent.

The deaf old lady living in the back house also finished her study on the street. She has been looking for people to chat with all day, as if she had some happy event. She looks very energetic.

The backyard is so lively, so the middle yard naturally doesn't want to be outdone.

Sha Zhu was the first one to come back. He had just been promoted to canteen monitor and his word was law in the third canteen.

It must be good for Chinese New Year, so he bought a chicken and a big piece of fat meat, two fingers wide, which was so delicious that I don’t know where he bought it.

In addition to chicken and meat, he also bought a lot of meatballs and vegetables, preparing to prepare a good table on New Year's Eve so that he and his sister could have a prosperous New Year.

Yi Zhonghai and his wife have always paid attention to their image and usually behaved very frugally. But on this New Year's Day, the aunt went to the vegetable market very early and bought two catties of meat and two catties of flour.

Because besides the couple, there is also an old lady, so they have to make some preparations.

The Jia family was more exaggerated. Qin Huairu bought half a pound of meat and two pounds of flour, preparing to have dumplings for the family on New Year's Eve. Jia Zhang told everyone she met about it, for fear that others didn't know.

Although there are many people in the third uncle's house in the front yard and life is difficult, the third uncle has a solution.

I bought a small piece of meat, as well as tofu, radish, vermicelli, etc.

Well, his family is preparing to eat a hodgepodge during the Chinese New Year.

"Jingle Bell"

When the crisp sound of a car bell was heard, Yan Bugui stretched his head curiously and looked towards the gate.

The third uncle placed a small table at his door, with some red paper on it, and a brush and inkstone next to it.

The Chinese New Year is also the time for the Third Uncle to show off his skills and earn extra money. He has a good hand in calligraphy and can help people write door couplets and so on.

While helping others, he can also charge a fee for writing, or a fee for writing. If that doesn't work, you can give peanuts or melon seeds, which are all from the same courtyard and much cheaper than buying them outside, so everyone is happy.

When he saw Li Guohua pushing a brand new bicycle with a lot of vegetables and New Year's goods hanging on the bicycle, he lost his composure.

"No, Guohua, has your factory sent you a new car?" Yan Bugui became anxious and walked forward to ask.

"No, I bought this. My boss gave me a bicycle ticket, but I never used it. It's Chinese New Year, so I bought it!"

Yan Bugui was upset. Why didn't our school leaders give me a bicycle ticket? My bicycle was so old and rusty, and you bought it back. If your uncle didn't have four children, he would have bought it too.

"Uncle, you're not even thirty yet, and you're already writing door couplets?" Li Guohua asked in confusion when he saw the things on the table.

"Hey, your uncle is serving the neighbors in advance. They have to wait until the 30th. There will be so many people lining up. It's freezing cold here, don't catch a cold!" The uncle looked like he was thinking about everyone.

Well, it’s high, really high. You’re probably just afraid that by then people won’t be able to wait, and fewer people will ask you to write for them.

"Okay, Uncle San, help me write a few later."

Seeing that the third uncle was still staring at his bicycle, Li Guohua decided to give him a treat and took out a handful of candy from his pocket and put it on the table.

"Okay! You tell me what to write and I'll write it."

When the third uncle heard that there was business coming, and it was a big customer, he immediately became alert.

"Goodbye, you better come and watch. I'll send the things back first and come back to get them later!"

After saying goodbye to the third uncle, I went straight home. Someone was already cooking at home. The smoke from the kitchen was curling up, and the air was filled with the breath of life.

"Oh, second brother! You changed the car, and there are snacks, second brother! I want to eat snacks!" When Camellia saw the snacks in the net bag, she was so happy that she burst into laughter.

"Okay, help second brother get the things inside first. It's too cold outside!" Li Guohua said with a smile.

When the little girl heard that there was food, she hurried over to help get the food.

"Guohua, your father bought the New Year's goods, your elder brother bought some, and now you buy some too. Are you not living a happy life?"

Sure enough, mom is mom. She was caught and scolded before she even entered the door.

"Mom, just eat it slowly after buying it. Can't I return it?" Li Guohua said helplessly.

The young wife was helping with cooking. She saw Li Guohua covering her mouth and laughing while being scolded. Li Guohua got so angry that he pointed to the sky, meaning that she should wait until dark.

"Mom, what my second brother bought is different from what my father and eldest brother bought. There are many delicious things!"

At this time, Camellia was holding a box of biscuits and eating them while thinking that she had eaten her second brother's food and she had to speak up for him.

But as soon as he said this, Li Guohua knew something was wrong.

As for your own words, your mother can't do anything to you. At most, she can just talk to you. Now you are the one eating and drinking at home, and you still dare to speak. It will be strange if you get any good results.

"You damn girl, it's not even the New Year yet and you're already eating. What are you going to eat when the New Year comes? Whose child is like you!"

As expected, mother Chen Lan scolded Chahua and took away all her things.

Seeing Camellia looking at him, Li Guohua could only shrug his shoulders, indicating that he was powerless.

"Guohua, what's wrong with your bike?" Li Chuwu looked at the bicycle and asked worriedly.

He knew what farm his son was in charge of, so he made no mistake.

"Dad, it's the ticket from last time. I gave it to you and mom. Since neither of you want it, I'll just buy you a car. Then you can ride it to work. It will be more convenient!"

"You kid, you spend your money recklessly! I wonder what you'll do if you have kids in the future!"

After hearing what Li Guohua said, mother Chen Lan started to scold him again, and at the same time quietly began the process of induced labor.

"That's right, you have to listen to your mother. Your family has raised the three of you to this age, and it's all up to your mother to take care of you!"

While Old Li was talking about Li Guohua, he had already run to the bicycle, pressed the bell, squeezed the brakes, looked around, and his eyes were almost smiling.

Li Guohua felt relieved when he saw that Lao Li liked it.

It is the same no matter what era it is. When children spend money to give things to their parents, their parents will complain to their faces, but behind their backs, they will praise you for ten years.
