Yan Lingling was very glad that she was at home at this time, giving her enough time to calm down.By the time she and Grandpa got out of the car and walked to the streets of the town, the shock of seeing the news had worn off. Although the 28-year-old has not been in love much, he is mature in dealing with love.Since Lin Yi didn't take the initiative to bring it up, she shouldn't ask, after all, how credible is a message through the phone screen?

She didn't reply to Lan Lan.Lin Yi didn't take the initiative to mention it either. At night, the two of them chatted via video, which was no different from usual.

According to the customs of my hometown, I will go to worship the ancestors on the morning of New Year's Eve.Grandpa was getting old and tired from climbing the hills. Yan Lingling asked him to stay at home and go to a distant tomb to pay homage. After the far away worship was over, he and grandpa would pay homage to the dead around the village.The worshippers started from grandpa's grandfather to Yan Lingling's grandma, parents, and the customs made this worship not too sentimental in it. It was more like a fixed task once a year. There are some large populations in the village. In the family, worshiping ancestors on New Year’s Eve is like a spring outing. There are more than a dozen people from two or three generations, carrying paper incense, wax firecrackers, and chattering all the way.

After sacrificing ancestors, I came back to have a reunion dinner. Although there were only two people, Yan Lingling cooked a big table.The food on New Year’s Eve has to be eaten until the first and second day of the first day, and one eats for two years, which means that there is more than enough every year, and every year is rich.Afternoon is playing time, old people get together to eat sunflower seeds, chat and play chess, middle-aged people gather together to rub mahjong, chat and eat sunflower seeds, Yan Lingling sends grandpa to Mrs. Small lanterns and bamboo dragons.At five or six o'clock in the afternoon, she went home to prepare hot pot dishes, and prepared things for the children to make trouble in the village at night, and waited for grandpa to come back and eat hot pot while watching the Spring Festival Gala.

Both of them ate less and stayed with each other to cook hot pot until after eight o'clock.

Active children in the village have already gone from house to house carrying small lanterns.Yan Lingling's home is in the middle of the village, and the concrete road across the village is four or five meters away from her home.Beginning this year, the electric lights on the concrete roadside have been replaced with solar lights, which can be lit all night when the weather is good during the day.Hearing the children yelling from the side of the cement road, grandpa hurriedly placed melon seeds, candy, snacks and fruits on the table in the middle of the room, and the bacon and sausage in the kitchen was brought out by Yan Lingling and put on the table. The door of the house opened, and grandpa and grandson The two stared at the courtyard door closely.

With a crack, the courtyard door was pushed open, and two or three children shouted "New Year's Day" and rushed into the courtyard. The leading child carried a small lantern, and the two children behind carried a small bamboo dragon, shouting "Grandpa, Sister Lingling" , put the bamboo dragon by the door, ran into the room and asked himself if he was the first to come.Grandpa smiled, so yes, the three children each grabbed a handful of candied melon seeds and stuffed them into their pockets, then searched around the house, under the plate, under the vase, behind the TV, and shouted happily when they saw the little red envelope, grab it. stand up.After finding the red envelopes, I wished my grandpa New Year greetings, and after saying hello to Yan Lingling, I went out and carried the bamboo dragon and the small lantern to the next house.

This is also the custom in the village.On New Year's Eve, every household has to prepare food and small red envelopes, and the underage children make trouble in the whole village, and every household goes there.Children are different from adults. No matter how big the rift between adults is, it will not affect the freedom of children on New Year's Eve.Yan Lingling went to every corner to fill up new red envelopes while chatting with his grandfather. When he was young, the red envelopes he found when he was busy in the village only contained one or two cents. Before they finished speaking, the yard door was pushed open again. The four children saw Yan Lingling stuffing the red envelope into the back of the TV. At the same time, they wailed a step too late and chattered non-stop. In order, grab the red envelope first. Candy melon seeds, take the opportunity to stuff a piece of bacon in your mouth, and then look for red envelopes, New Year greetings.The clever child didn't find the two red envelopes, so he turned around and acted like a baby to his grandfather and Yan Lingling, saying one after another cute words, so that the adults had to take out the spare red envelopes from their pockets and stuff one in each.

Seeing that the children in the village are almost here.Yan Lingling got dressed and went to deliver blessings. The blessings were candy and melon seeds wrapped in a red package. The recipients of the gifts were neighbors and well-connected villagers.The recipients of the benefits are usually young people in the family, standing outside the gate of other people's courtyards, shouting into the house, and older elders will come out to receive the gifts.Children make noise in the village, young people give gifts, and the elderly receive gifts at home. These customs fill the first half of the New Year's Eve.At around [-] o'clock, every family finishes setting off firecrackers and fireworks, and "hands over the sky" to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new. The New Year's Eve ends amidst the noise and bustle. Adults and children go back to the house to sleep. When they wake up, it is the first day of the new year.

At twelve o'clock in the morning, the moment the firecrackers were lit, Yan Lingling sent Lin Yi his New Year's greetings. Ten minutes later, Lin Yi replied to the message, and the two chatted a few words to say good night to each other.

Lin Yi went home the day before New Year's Eve.Parents bought a lot of New Year's goods and piled them at home. As soon as Lin Yi arrived home, before he could sit down, he was dragged out by his parents to continue shopping.She didn't want to go out at first, but the thought of refusing would lead to nagging. She didn't want to quarrel with her family on the first day back home, so she had to spend these days happily anyway.

With the idea that you won’t mess with me and I won’t mess with you, on New Year’s Eve, Lin Yi’s family of four had a peaceful reunion. After dinner, they went to the county’s fireworks display to set off fireworks and watch the fireworks show arranged by the government. It's almost twelve o'clock when I get home.Lin Yi wanted to have a video chat with Yan Lingling, but received a message from Lan Lan.

A few days ago, Lin Yi was drunk at a friend's party, and when he woke up, he and Lan Lan slept on the same bed, naked.

Lin Yi had never had any sexual behavior after drinking, and he was taken aback when he woke up, but then he confirmed that nothing happened to Lan Lan.Although Lin Yi knows that Lan Lan is interested in him, Lan Lan is a person who is interested in many people, and the two have the same attributes, so it is unlikely that anything will happen.

Lan Lan first sent her a happy new year, and then sent a photo of Lin Yi's pen.It should have fallen out of the bag at Lan Lan's house a few days ago.The pen was given by Yan Lingling. There is a nationally famous online celebrity bookstore in the tourist city. The two went in for a stroll. Yan Lingling bought this big red pen for her.

Lan Lan: I dropped the pen at my house. I used it just now. Don't you mind?

Of course I don’t mind if I just write it down, Lin Yi is not that kind of person, she said: I’ll get it after returning to Zicheng.

Lan Lan: Haha, well, I thought you wouldn't want it anymore, it's just a pen after all.

Lin Yi is used to Lan Lan's personality in talking and doing things, and his joking tone is not malicious.Lin Yi quickly replied with a message: Yes, I like this pen, it is a gift from an important person.

The voices of mother and younger brother were raised slightly outside the door. Lin Yi held his mobile phone and listened for a while, before the conversation turned into an argument.

Don't quarrel on New Year's Eve, "The head of the first month is forbidden, and the end of the twelfth lunar month is forbidden." Lin Yi rolled his eyes, threw his phone on the bed, and walked out of the room.Seeing her come out, mother and brother stopped arguing and turned their faces away from each other.

Lin Yi was not interested in asking what happened to them, so he turned to the toilet by himself. When he came out, he was forced to drink a bowl of tremella soup before returning to the room. I didn't reply immediately.Annoyed, she quickly dialed the video.

There is no habit of visiting relatives to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the new year. People in the village make appointments to hang out in the village or on the streets of the town.The weather was fine. Grandpa and some old people were playing chess at the entrance of the village. A few children took Yan Lingling to the distant fields to dig delicious wild vegetables.

Everyone said that celebrating the new year is boring now, but Yan Lingling still likes celebrating the new year very much. Most of the people in the village came back, and the whole village came alive.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Yan Lingling started visiting relatives to pay New Year's greetings.Because her parents passed away early, and most of her grandfather's brothers and sisters were away from home, she completed the New Year's greeting task in two days.Lin Yi sent a message saying that he went to four places to pay New Year's greetings in one day, and he would have to pay New Year's greetings until the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, so tired.Yan Lingling comforted her while pressing the pork knuckle with a pressure cooker.

On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Aunt Yan Lingling's family came back.My aunt is my grandfather's own daughter. She went to work in the coastal area with the villagers, met my uncle, and married my uncle when I was less than 20 years old.My aunt seldom came back after she got married. When her grandfather fell ill, she came back to stay for a while, but her uncle and parents complained, so my aunt had no choice but to go back. ——Because of this, Yan Lingling had to drop out of school and go home to take care of her grandfather.Fortunately, my aunt took out a sum of money, plus the borrowed money, so that Yan Lingling didn't have to worry about money while taking care of grandpa.

Yan Lingling has an average relationship with her aunt. When she dropped out of school in her teens, she resented her aunt and uncle in her heart for a while.So does grandpa.Later, Yan Lingling worked in a factory outside, and went to her aunt's house during her vacation, and found that her uncle's parents were extremely strong, and her aunt who married far away was also unhappy, and the knot in her heart slowly dissipated.

Both my uncle and my parents passed away last year, so my aunt was able to come back with her husband and two children during the Spring Festival this year.My aunt gave birth to three children. The oldest girl is one year younger than Yan Lingling and is married. The next two younger brothers, one is 22 years old and the other is 17 years old. When they see Yan Lingling and grandpa, they greet each other like strangers.

Strange family members gather together with various moods and restraints.Fortunately, both Yan Lingling and her 17-year-old cousin can speak, and with the mediation of her aunt, after a long time, they felt like a family.Grandpa took his uncle to the entrance of the village to play chess and cards with others, Yan Lingling took his aunt and two cousins ​​to the town, and happened to meet Dongyang and Dongjun from my mother's house in the town who were shopping on a motorcycle. After asking about the two little cousins, Dongyang Dongjun took the two of them to play together.

On the way home, Yan Lingling and his aunt were carrying big bags of things, and they talked about Yan Lingling's parents. The aunt shed two tears and said that she was sorry for her brother and felt very guilty for Yan Lingling.

It may be that I am too old, and many things have been overlooked.The aunt would take the initiative to bring up the guilt, and Yan Lingling would also take the initiative to say that she was not to blame.When the aunt and nephew talked, the rift between the two of them dissipated. When the family sat around for dinner at night, they could clearly feel that the atmosphere was more harmonious.

On the morning of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Yan Lingling received a message from Lin Yi, saying that three more relatives would leave today, and the ordeal would be over.Yan Lingling quickly congratulated her.

Dongyang came to the village on a motorcycle to ask someone about something, and happened to see Yan Lingling standing by the yard smiling and replying to the message, so he teased whether he was her boyfriend.Yan Lingling pretended to be stupid and fooled around, just in time for his aunt, grandfather and little cousin to overhear. After Dongyang left, the family chatted about Yan Lingling's partner for the first time.

Elders, you say one sentence to another, and it is mainly my aunt who speaks.The grandfather didn't care about it. In the eyes of the old man, his precious granddaughter was very promising, and he didn't have to worry about finding a partner. He also blocked his aunt's words with words like "the young people of today are late to get married", which attracted Yan Ling Ling and the two little cousins ​​nodded repeatedly and gave grandpa the thumbs up.Less to more, my aunt couldn't go on talking, she waved her hand to indicate that she didn't care, and started sweeping the yard with a broom.

I thought today was just another normal day.At noon, my aunt was cooking in the kitchen, and the others were sitting in the yard basking in the sun, watching grandpa and little cousin play checkers.Lin Yi called, Yan Lingling just picked it up, Lin Yi said angrily, "Are you in contact with Lin Duojin!"

Yan Lingling was baffled, she did not tell Lin Yi about her becoming friends with Lin Yi's younger brother, but they didn't talk about anything.Did something happen to Lin Yi, so angry? !She walked out of the courtyard with her mobile phone, and worriedly asked the other party what was wrong.

Lin Yi didn't answer, with a bad tone, and asked her why she wanted to contact Lin Duojin, why didn't she tell herself about it!That tone of voice sounded like a question.

Yan Lingling has always been good at controlling emotions and temper, but when faced with Lin Yi's head-on questioning, his heart also burst into flames, and his tone couldn't help being a little unhappy: "What does it matter if I tell you? Nothing to talk about. I can show you the screenshot!"

Lin Yi: "You don't think there is anything to talk about. They mentioned your existence in front of a group of people. You..."

"Are you afraid that others will know my existence?" Yan Lingling interrupted Lin Yi, "Or, are you afraid that others will know our relationship?" She suppressed her inner emotions and spoke calmly.

Because of his anger, Lin Yi began to speak indiscriminately: "Aren't you scared too? But you pointed the finger at me, we are all the same, Yan Lingling, do you dare to call out our relationship to the people around you? You certainly don't, Because no one will support you..."

The little cousin called Yan Lingling to eat at the courtyard gate.Yan Lingling nodded to show that she understood. She took a deep breath and hung up the phone before Lin Yi finished speaking. ——She realized that the moment Lin Yi called her name just now, she almost blurted out: You didn't tell me what happened between you and Lan Lan.

The author has something to say: Sui Sui Nian: Year after year, so fast.The anticipation of Chinese New Year is getting smaller and smaller, but the children are still having fun~~
