Dressed as the uncle of farming culture
Chapter 229
Regarding Xiao Dazhu's evasion, everyone didn't speak out to make fun of it, but the eyes said everything, which made Xiao Dazhu feel uncomfortable at home, and dragged Mo Cheng to wander around the village.
Liu Sisi seized every opportunity to stare at chrysanthemum embroidery, chrysanthemum is a disappointment, after being taught for so long, she hasn't made much progress, but she is much better than before.
Xiao Wang was very satisfied with this, but she still asked Juhua to persevere, after all, she learned these things by herself in the end.
Xiao Le and Xiao Chengyun hoeed the weeds outside the yard at home in the morning, and went up the mountain with Mo Cheng to cut firewood in the afternoon.
Gotta prepare for winter.
After chopping firewood for several days in a row, their big firewood room was also packed to the brim, Xiao Wang felt happy when he saw it.
Seeing them tired for so many days, Mrs. Xiao Wang immediately cooked two large pieces of meat, and soaked the beans.
Xiao Le leaned over to take a look, and was amused: "Do you want tofu?"
"Yeah, last year I promised to do it, but I still didn't do it in the end. This year, I got a lot of beans back, and the family can live well, so I won't sell them."
Xiao Wang nodded with a smile.
"Brother Mo Cheng didn't grow this, and he probably hasn't eaten tofu for many years. Later, he and I will use a stone mill to roll it out."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wang felt uncomfortable, "You and your brother go to the grinder, let Mo Cheng help me light the fire."
Make something lightweight.
The mother-in-law opened her mouth, even though Mo Cheng, who still wanted to work with Xiao Le, obediently went to light the fire in the end.
The beans had to be soaked for two hours. In the afternoon, Xiao Le and Xiao Chengyun started to clean the stone mill, poured clean water, placed the cleaned wooden buckets to receive the bean juice, and pushed one at the beginning, and then pushed it back.
Liu Sisi and soy milk, so before making tofu, Xiao Wang made a small pot of soy milk, put a lot of sugar in it, and drank it sweetly. Xiao Le and Liu Sisi liked it very much.
Xiao Chengyun and Mo Cheng thought it was too sweet, so they didn't take a few sips.
In the evening, the tofu was served on the table, and Xiao Le and Mo Cheng each brought a large bowl, which they gave to Uncle Xiao and Uncle Xiao respectively.
When I came back, I was still holding the food they sent.
"Is it delicious?"
Xiao Le asked Mo Cheng in a low voice.
Mo Cheng nodded straight, and scooped up a spoonful of tofu for Xiao Le.
Xiao Le grinned, "You eat, leave me alone."
How could Mo Cheng ignore him, seeing how close they were, Xiao Chengyun felt that he was not as good to his wife as they were, so he quickly scooped some up for Liu Sisi with a wooden spoon.
Liu Sisi smiled, "You eat too."
Seeing this, Xiao Dazhu also scooped up a spoon for Xiao Wang, without saying anything. Xiao Wang was taken aback. Seeing Xiao Le and others looking over, the old man blushed, and hurriedly scooped another spoon for the ignorant chrysanthemum.
Chrysanthemum eats happily.
The next day, Second Aunt Xiao brought some things and brought Mei Hua to the door to find Mrs. Xiao and Liu Sisi.
Xiao Le and Mo Cheng put the leftover sawdust in the large back basket that they didn't use in the yard, and waited to add it to the fire in winter, which could burn for a long time.
When Second Aunt Xiao left with a smile, Xiao Le and the others knew that the other party came to ask Liu Sisi to accept Mei Hua and make Mei Hua worship her as a teacher.
Liu Sisi was naturally willing, so when teaching Chrysanthemum, there was another one.
Plum blossoms can learn better than chrysanthemums. On Uncle Xiao's birthday, they caught up with chrysanthemums. Chrysanthemums were not frustrated, but inspired to fight, and these days they also calmed down and studied.
Uncle Xiao's birthday, they naturally went to help early in the morning, Mo Cheng was still taken into the kitchen by Xiao Wang to do some work, Xiao Le and Xiao Chengyun helped Xiao Fafu brothers arrange the tables and chairs.
Liu Sisi puffed out her stomach and whispered to Mrs. Facai, and even touched Mrs. Facai's child from time to time.
"Brother Fafu, I heard that you are about to make a date?"
During the break, Xiao Le asked.
Xiao Fafu blushed, "Let's just meet and talk, I don't know if it will be earlier or later."
"I think it's ahead of time," Xiao Facai whispered from the side, "The old man of the Chen family is in a hurry, no, that's why there's news that we're discussing the date of getting married."
Xiao Chengyun showed the original expression, and seeing Xiao Le was a little confused, he said in a low voice, "Mr. Chen fell ill a few days ago."
Xiao Le understood, "There will be people coming over there."
"Yes," Xiao Fafu scratched his head, "Do you see how I look today?"
The clothes he was wearing were not new, but they suited him very well, and there were not many patches, so he looked very energetic.
Xiao Le gave him a thumbs up, "Very good!"
"I don't know why I'm nervous," Xiao Facai teased.
"You're talking about me now," Xiao Fafu said with some disdain, "I didn't know who it was back then, the one who wiped his face with his mother in order to meet his sister-in-law..."
"Shut up," Xiao Facai covered his stinky brother's mouth, and smiled awkwardly at Brother Xiao Le, "I'll teach him a lesson."
As he spoke, he pulled the person aside.
"What?"
Xiao Le curiously asked Xiao Chengyun who was smiling.
"Second Uncle gave Second Aunt a large box of face cream, but she sweated nervously and her face was blurred."
Xiao Chengyun laughed more and more as he talked, and Xiao Le laughed too. At this moment, Aunt Xiao and his wife came.
"we won."
Xiao Le raised his eyebrows.
The smile on Xiao Chengyun's face gradually disappeared, Xiao Facai immediately dragged Facai's wife into the kitchen, Mo Cheng was helping to wash the vegetables, seeing him come in with a dark face, Second Aunt Xiao's expression also changed slightly.
"coming?"
"coming."
Xiao Facai nodded, and told Facai's wife to stay in the kitchen, and Liu Sisi also came in, "Don't worry, Brother Facai, I will accompany sister-in-law and the others."
"Be careful too," Xiao Facai frowned.
Xiao Wang was also very nervous, "Sisi, don't go anywhere!"
Mo Cheng simply brought the wooden basin not far from them, as long as there was any situation, he would be the first to stand up, and Xiao Wang's heart warmed when he saw this.
Uncle Xiao came forward to greet his uncle with a half-hearted smile. The uncle's face was not very good-looking. He originally came alone, but Aunt Xiao secretly followed up.
"Second brother, I know I'm wrong, don't you see me, okay?"
Aunt Xiao grabbed Second Uncle Xiao with red eyes and said.
There were already more people now, Xiao Le and Xiao Fafu saw that the situation was not right, they immediately went forward and brought a few people into the backyard, there were a few children playing over there, Xiao Le teased them with small snacks, and took them out .
I don't know what they said in the backyard, anyway, the faces of the three Xiao Dazhu brothers are not very good, and Aunt Xiao's eyes are red and swollen.
And the eldest uncle was full of embarrassment.
In the end, they stayed for a meal, and Second Uncle Xiao's face softened a little. After the two left, someone from the Chen family came again, and Second Uncle Xiao's face turned into a chrysanthemum with a smile.
"Hurry up," seeing Chen Sanmei's parents approaching, Xiao Le quickly pushed the nervous Xiao Fafu.
As a result, this big fool stepped forward with one hand and one foot, and called him father and mother.
After the embarrassment, the parents of both sides laughed again, and Xiao Dazhu burst out laughing.
Shame on Xiao Fafu.
In the end, when he came back, he was laughed at by Xiao Le and his cousins, Xiao Fafu was very angry.
The Chen family stayed at Uncle Xiao's house for one night. Early the next morning, Xiao Fafu came over to invite them to have breakfast.
Xiao Le yawned and let Mo Cheng dress him.
When he was about to go out, Mo Cheng kissed him, Xiao Le blinked, hugged Mo Cheng and rubbed against him, and then went out with him.
Uncle Xiao's family was also there, and in front of them, Uncle Xiao told the date that he had negotiated with the Chen family, which was the twentieth of spring.
That's just over a month.
Xiao Fafu was in high spirits, and Xiao Chengyun slapped him on the shoulder, "What I wanted has come true."
"Congratulations," Xiao Le and Mo Cheng also cupped their hands.
From this day on, Uncle Xiao's family also slowly started preparing for Xiao Fafu's marriage.
First of all, Xiao Fafu's house had to be rebuilt, so Xiao Le and Mo Cheng naturally went to help.
The three brothers Xiao Dazhu found wood and wanted to hire someone to make a cabinet, but Mo Cheng rolled up his sleeves and said he could.
Back then when Xiao Le's family was building furniture, he had found a master carpenter before the house was demolished, so Mo Cheng had no room for prowess, and now he could make a big splash.
So after Xiao Fafu's cabinet was finished, he was pulled by Uncle Xiao to make a table. Cheng Mo was very busy for a while, and Mrs. Xiao Wang cooked meat from time to time to nourish his body.
When Chinese New Year was approaching, Xiao Le and Mo Cheng went back to Mo's house together, slaughtered the New Year pig first, and distributed a dozen catties to Ah Shan's family, thanking them for helping to take care of the house and poultry.
Then they slaughtered all the chickens, and invited the elderly elders in the village, Ah Shan, and Ah Ping, who had a good relationship with Mo Cheng, to come over for an early dinner, and Mo Cheng carried the remaining pork and chicken on his back. , and Xiao Le went out of the mountain again.
"Why did you carry so much back, kid?"
Back at Xiao's house, Xiao Wang could not help but twitch his mouth when he saw the pannier Mo Cheng put down.
Xiao Dazhu also said, "Did you carry all the pigs and chickens at home?"
"Anyway, there's no one at home. Brother Mo Cheng said that he can't just come to celebrate the New Year with empty hands," Xiao Le said with a smile.
"What are you talking about?" Xiao Wang nodded Xiao Le's head, "The relationship is so good, just like our children, come whenever you want, and do what you want."
"Don't poke me, poke him."
Xiao Le yelled, and didn't run away, Mo Cheng stepped forward to protect his head with his big hands, Xiao Wang shook his head, and said to Mo Cheng, "He is bullying you, and you still help him."
Mo Cheng smiled foolishly.
All the pork he brought was made into bacon, and on the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, Xiao Le’s family also slaughtered the New Year’s pigs, most of them were made into oily meat and sausage, and a small part was made into bacon and wind meat.
"Third Uncle, would you like some wine?"
It was a very lively day. In addition to inviting the elders of the family to eat the pig-killing banquet, the families of Uncle Xiao and Uncle Xiao also came to help.
"Come on less," Third Uncle Xiao glanced at Third Aunt Xiao who was talking to Liu Sisi, and said in a low voice, "Otherwise your Third Aunt will talk about me when she goes back."
"Sure, where's the second uncle?"
Xiao Le looked at Second Uncle Xiao again.
Second Uncle Xiao patted his stomach, then glanced at Third Uncle Xiao triumphantly, "Bring me a pot, I'm not like your Third Uncle."
"Really?" Xiao Fafu said coolly from the side, "Be careful sleeping in the guest room at night."
"Stinky boy, what are you talking about!"
Uncle Xiao, who had been exposed, became angry from embarrassment, Xiao Dazhu took two sips of wine with enjoyment and said, "You guys are still too young."
"That's because sister-in-law is too kind to you, and you are not satisfied," Second Uncle Xiao muttered.
Xiao Dazhu glared over, Second Uncle Xiao was not afraid of him, the three brothers were muttering there, and the kitchen was very lively, Xiao Le took the wine and sent it over, and went straight into the kitchen to find Mo Cheng.
"Brother bought roast chicken and came back, we will have a few drinks later."
Xiao Le secretly held Mo Cheng's big hand, it was warm and comfortable.
Mo Cheng smiled at him and held his hand tightly.
During the meal, several of their cousins sat together, and Mo Cheng had long been regarded as Xiao's family, sitting next to Xiao Le, picking up food for him from time to time.
After Xiao Le and Xiao Fafu lost their punches, the two little cousins of the third uncle's family were still blah, Xiao Le said unconvinced, "When you grow up, it will be your turn to accompany you for a few days." My cousin is drinking!"
A hand stretched out to help Xiao Le drink the glass, and then motioned Xiao Fafu to make gestures with him.
Xiao Fafu groaned, rolled up his sleeves in the cold weather and said excitedly, "I haven't been here with Mo Cheng yet, come on!"
It turned out to be a drunk shrimp.
It was carried back by Xiao Facai.
"You are amazing!"
When Xiao Fafu was a little drunk, Mo Cheng wanted to stop, but Xiao Fafu was unwilling and insisted on continuing, so it was like that.
Hearing Xiao Chengyun's admiration, Mo Cheng gestured for a while, and Xiao Le translated, "He said that drinking is a happy thing, and you can't let Brother Fafu be so serious in the future. Drinking too much is bad for your health."
Xiao Wangshi and Liu Sisi nodded repeatedly.
It's almost Chinese New Year, and Xiao Wang took his family to clean up the inside and outside of the house, and there was no grass growing inside or outside the yard.
During the period, I also went to the home of Uncle Xiao and Uncle Xiao to eat a meal of slaughtering pigs.
When the heavy snow fell, the Xiao family also lit firewood, Liu Sisi wished she could sleep next to the fire, because she was afraid of the cold after she was pregnant.
With three layers on the inside and three layers on the outside, everyone was afraid that she would fall when walking in the yard.
Xiao Le is also afraid of the cold, but Mo Cheng is like a big heater, his whole body is warm, and it is very comfortable to hold each other to sleep at night.
The family sat by the fire, and Xiao Dazhu didn't know how to smoke dry tobacco. Xiao Le directed the chrysanthemum grill to pull out the taro. This is also a technical job. It tastes numb if it is not cooked, and it will be mushy if it is overcooked.
The taro is very fragrant, Xiao Le gave two to Liu Sisi, one for himself and Mo Cheng, Xiao Dazhu and the others didn't like to burn it.
"Is it delicious?"
Xiao Le asked Mo Cheng.
Mo Cheng nodded with sparkling eyes.
"There's Suogua over there, it's better to eat it while it's burning," Xiao Wang said.
"It's too big," Xiao Le shook his head, "It takes a long time to bake, I'm too lazy to turn it over, and I can't eat that much, it's a waste."
This is true.
Suddenly, Liu Sisi clutched her stomach and let out an ouch, and the group looked over nervously.
Liu Sisi said embarrassedly, "Kicked me."
The fetus has been moving for a long time, and this is the first time Xiao Le and Mo Cheng have seen it.
"I'll clean up the little guy when I come out."
Xiao Chengyun pretended to scold.
Chrysanthemum pursed her mouth, "I think you are reluctant."
Xiao Chengyun touched his nose, "Why are you reluctant?"
"You are willing, and your parents are not willing to. I don't know who will be cleaned up at that time."
Xiao Le rubbed his head at Ju Hua's words, "It's amazing, you dare to refute what Big Brother said?"
Mo Cheng directly gave Juhua a roasted taro, and Juhua took it with a smile, "I'm not a fool, I'll be fourteen next year."
Hearing this, Xiao Le took a closer look at the chrysanthemum, and it was true that she was much taller, and her facial features became more beautiful, "Like a mother, she looks even more beautiful."
Chrysanthemum blushed, "Mother is the prettiest."
Xiao Wangshi covered her mouth and smiled, "You guys, only Chengyun is like his father."
Xiao Chengyun and Xiao Dazhu: ...
Liu Sisi looked at her husband, then at Chrysanthemum and her brother-in-law, who couldn't help but smile. After careful comparison, it was her husband who was actually slightly less handsome.
Seeing that she was holding back her smile, Xiao Chengyun touched his face that was finally not so dark, "Just wait, I'll go back when this winter is over."
Xiao Le laughed louder, and was finally dragged by Xiao Chengyun to sweep the snow in the yard.
Xiao Le is so cold.
Fortunately, Mo Cheng helped sweep together, and soon went to the fire room to warm up again.
This year's reunion dinner was at Uncle Xiao's house. After lunch, the family brought the prepared items to Uncle Xiao's house.
Mo Cheng was stared at by the boy of Mrs. Fa Cai, and it was okay to watch, and he was drooling while watching, Xiao Le stood in front of Mo Cheng, and made a proud and childish face at the boy.
The kid pursed his mouth, and burst out crying the next moment.
Xiao Facai accepted the child dumbfounded, "It's weird, I'm afraid of Xiao Le."
"I am so mighty and majestic, of course he is afraid of me."
Xiao Le's honey juice is proud.
Xiao Fafu chuckled, "Where do you see that you are mighty and majestic? Come and burn chicken feathers for me."
"Don't lose the beautiful chicken feathers, make shuttlecocks for Meihua and the others."
"I've done it a long time ago, it's too cold to play," Xiao Fafu said.
Mo Cheng was still helping in the kitchen.
"I don't know when it will come out."
Mrs. Fa Cai looked at Liu Sisi's stomach tenderly.
Liu Sisi smiled and said, "Come on, around the beginning of spring, confinement is comfortable even if it's neither hot nor cold."
"That's the reason," Mrs. Facai nodded repeatedly, and while she was talking, Xiao Facai brought over the boy who was making a fuss about looking for a mother.
Mrs. Facai took the child and coaxed her softly. Not long after, she started laughing and joking again.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, Xiao Wang's couple and Liu Sisi's couple went back. Xiao Le and Mo Cheng played wildly at Second Uncle Xiao's house. They didn't return home until the next morning after breakfast, yawning and washing up. Fall back to sleep.
After waking up, Xiao Wang smiled and gave Mo Cheng a big red seal, "You are not allowed to return it, and you are not allowed to give us the red seal this year."
One sentence blocked Mo Cheng to death.
Xiao Le also got one, but not as many as Mo Cheng.
"open to take a look."
Xiao Le closed the door and urged Mo Cheng.
Mo Cheng opened it and moved it away, his eyes were full of surprise, only to see that inside the red envelope was a small silver note of ten taels!
"Wow."
Xiao Le pawed at the banknote, "Mother is so generous."
Mo Cheng opened Xiao Le's red seal, and inside were twelve copper plates.
Xiao Le clicked his tongue, hugged Mo Cheng's neck and rubbed his cheeks, "The new daughter-in-law really wins my mother-in-law's heart."
Mo Cheng's ears turned red, he held his waist, and then took out a red envelope and handed it to Xiao Le.
"For me?"
Mo Cheng nodded.
Xiao Le opened it, and there were 20 taels of silver bills inside.
"I have it too," Xiao Le waved at Mo Cheng, and Mo Cheng lowered his head and was greeted with a resounding kiss, "Happy New Year!"
Mo Cheng was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, put his arms around his waist and kissed him back.
Another sticky day has begun.
Aunt Xiao didn't come this year, but my eldest cousin and his wife came together.
The eldest cousin looks like the eldest uncle, and also has the same temperament. He is a good person, and the elders did not treat the couple coldly because of Aunt Xiao.
Even Xiao Facai knew it wasn't the other party's fault and gave him a smiling face.
This made the couple who were nervous when they came here breathe a sigh of relief.
They left after lunch. When they returned home, their eldest uncle asked about the situation. After learning how the Xiao family treated them well, the eldest uncle sighed and looked at Aunt Xiao who was beside him.
"You, a good family, you made it like this..."
Aunt Xiao's eyes were red, "I really didn't mean it."
"You still say this? One sentence is wrong, and you still think it's not your fault?"
The eldest uncle patted the table fiercely, "You'd better think it over for me, otherwise, otherwise I will separate the family and you will live alone!"
Aunt Xiao was startled, and the children dared not speak.
Liu Sisi was about to give birth, so she didn't go back to her natal family to pay New Year's greetings this year, and her natal family knew this, so brother Liu and sister-in-law Liu came to see her.
Xiao Chengyun in front of Big Brother Liu was very well-behaved, Xiao Le looked at him with suppressed joy, and Xiao Chengyun stared a few times when he was discovered.
After they left, Xiao Le pointed at Xiao Chengyun and laughed, Xiao Chengyun snorted coldly, "Wait, you have a brother-in-law, it's not much better than me!"
Xiao Le laughed louder, hugged Mo Cheng's arm and said, "I won't have a brother-in-law!"
Mo Cheng was also laughing.
Before Xiao Fafu married his wife, Liu Sisi was born. She gave birth very quickly, and within an hour, the little girl was born.
White and fat, the whole family circled around the child and stared at him.
"Like a mother, Bai."
Xiao Le said cheerfully.
"Yes," Liu Sisi, who had been in confinement for a few days, with a confinement veil made by Mrs. Xiao wrapped around her head, nodded with a smile on her face.
"That's good, good," Xiao Chengyun said cheerfully.
Mo Cheng couldn't help but stretch out his hand and poked the little girl's head very lightly. After poking, he looked surprised.
Seeing this, Xiao Le immediately grabbed his hand and asked, "Is it very soft?"
Mo Cheng nodded repeatedly, the family didn't pay attention to the intimacy between the two, they were all looking at the little girl.
Chrysanthemum even touched her little hand, "It's so soft."
"Okay, the children have watched it too, you all go out for me," Mrs. Xiao Wang called in hot water and was about to wipe the little girl's butt.
Xiao Le and the others who were kicked out had a look of reluctance.
Liu Sisi looked at Mrs. Xiao Wang who was busy, and said softly, "Mother, don't be tired."
"What's so tiring?" Xiao Wang hugged her granddaughter with a smile on her face, "Look, how good-looking you are."
Liu Sisi also laughed, "She likes mother."
He had to sleep separately during the confinement period, so Mo Cheng made a small wooden bed for Xiao Chengyun, and he slept next to the big bed. At night, the girl would get up when she cried, but most of the time he hadn’t picked up the little girl yet. Xiao Wang who heard the movement Shi rushed over in a hurry.
After having a little girl, Xiao Wang's heart was attracted by this child.
On the day of Xiao Fafu's marriage, Xiao Le, Mo Cheng and Xiao Dazhu went to help. Xiao Wang was worried about Liu Sisi's mother and daughter, so she talked to Aunt Xiao and the others, but they didn't go there.
Xiao Chengyun didn't dare to leave, because he was afraid that something would happen to Aunt Xiao again.
The courtyard door of their house was tightly closed, but fortunately Aunt Xiao didn't disturb them when she came.
Seeing her flattering smile towards her second uncle and aunt, Xiao Le whispered to Mo Cheng, "It seems that I knew I was wrong."
Mo Cheng nodded, and dragged him to find Xiao Facai.
Liu Sisi seized every opportunity to stare at chrysanthemum embroidery, chrysanthemum is a disappointment, after being taught for so long, she hasn't made much progress, but she is much better than before.
Xiao Wang was very satisfied with this, but she still asked Juhua to persevere, after all, she learned these things by herself in the end.
Xiao Le and Xiao Chengyun hoeed the weeds outside the yard at home in the morning, and went up the mountain with Mo Cheng to cut firewood in the afternoon.

From this day on, Uncle Xiao's family also slowly started preparing for Xiao Fafu's marriage.
First of all, Xiao Fafu's house had to be rebuilt, so Xiao Le and Mo Cheng naturally went to help.
The three brothers Xiao Dazhu found wood and wanted to hire someone to make a cabinet, but Mo Cheng rolled up his sleeves and said he could.
Back then when Xiao Le's family was building furniture, he had found a master carpenter before the house was demolished, so Mo Cheng had no room for prowess, and now he could make a big splash.
So after Xiao Fafu's cabinet was finished, he was pulled by Uncle Xiao to make a table. Cheng Mo was very busy for a while, and Mrs. Xiao Wang cooked meat from time to time to nourish his body.
When Chinese New Year was approaching, Xiao Le and Mo Cheng went back to Mo's house together, slaughtered the New Year pig first, and distributed a dozen catties to Ah Shan's family, thanking them for helping to take care of the house and poultry.
Then they slaughtered all the chickens, and invited the elderly elders in the village, Ah Shan, and Ah Ping, who had a good relationship with Mo Cheng, to come over for an early dinner, and Mo Cheng carried the remaining pork and chicken on his back. , and Xiao Le went out of the mountain again.
"Why did you carry so much back, kid?"
Back at Xiao's house, Xiao Wang could not help but twitch his mouth when he saw the pannier Mo Cheng put down.
Xiao Dazhu also said, "Did you carry all the pigs and chickens at home?"
"Anyway, there's no one at home. Brother Mo Cheng said that he can't just come to celebrate the New Year with empty hands," Xiao Le said with a smile.
"What are you talking about?" Xiao Wang nodded Xiao Le's head, "The relationship is so good, just like our children, come whenever you want, and do what you want."
"Don't poke me, poke him."
Xiao Le yelled, and didn't run away, Mo Cheng stepped forward to protect his head with his big hands, Xiao Wang shook his head, and said to Mo Cheng, "He is bullying you, and you still help him."
Mo Cheng smiled foolishly.
All the pork he brought was made into bacon, and on the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, Xiao Le’s family also slaughtered the New Year’s pigs, most of them were made into oily meat and sausage, and a small part was made into bacon and wind meat.
"Third Uncle, would you like some wine?"
It was a very lively day. In addition to inviting the elders of the family to eat the pig-killing banquet, the families of Uncle Xiao and Uncle Xiao also came to help.
"Come on less," Third Uncle Xiao glanced at Third Aunt Xiao who was talking to Liu Sisi, and said in a low voice, "Otherwise your Third Aunt will talk about me when she goes back."
"Sure, where's the second uncle?"
Xiao Le looked at Second Uncle Xiao again.
Second Uncle Xiao patted his stomach, then glanced at Third Uncle Xiao triumphantly, "Bring me a pot, I'm not like your Third Uncle."
"Really?" Xiao Fafu said coolly from the side, "Be careful sleeping in the guest room at night."
"Stinky boy, what are you talking about!"
Uncle Xiao, who had been exposed, became angry from embarrassment, Xiao Dazhu took two sips of wine with enjoyment and said, "You guys are still too young."
"That's because sister-in-law is too kind to you, and you are not satisfied," Second Uncle Xiao muttered.
Xiao Dazhu glared over, Second Uncle Xiao was not afraid of him, the three brothers were muttering there, and the kitchen was very lively, Xiao Le took the wine and sent it over, and went straight into the kitchen to find Mo Cheng.
"Brother bought roast chicken and came back, we will have a few drinks later."
Xiao Le secretly held Mo Cheng's big hand, it was warm and comfortable.
Mo Cheng smiled at him and held his hand tightly.
During the meal, several of their cousins sat together, and Mo Cheng had long been regarded as Xiao's family, sitting next to Xiao Le, picking up food for him from time to time.
After Xiao Le and Xiao Fafu lost their punches, the two little cousins of the third uncle's family were still blah, Xiao Le said unconvinced, "When you grow up, it will be your turn to accompany you for a few days." My cousin is drinking!"
A hand stretched out to help Xiao Le drink the glass, and then motioned Xiao Fafu to make gestures with him.
Xiao Fafu groaned, rolled up his sleeves in the cold weather and said excitedly, "I haven't been here with Mo Cheng yet, come on!"
It turned out to be a drunk shrimp.
It was carried back by Xiao Facai.
"You are amazing!"
When Xiao Fafu was a little drunk, Mo Cheng wanted to stop, but Xiao Fafu was unwilling and insisted on continuing, so it was like that.
Hearing Xiao Chengyun's admiration, Mo Cheng gestured for a while, and Xiao Le translated, "He said that drinking is a happy thing, and you can't let Brother Fafu be so serious in the future. Drinking too much is bad for your health."
Xiao Wangshi and Liu Sisi nodded repeatedly.
It's almost Chinese New Year, and Xiao Wang took his family to clean up the inside and outside of the house, and there was no grass growing inside or outside the yard.
During the period, I also went to the home of Uncle Xiao and Uncle Xiao to eat a meal of slaughtering pigs.
When the heavy snow fell, the Xiao family also lit firewood, Liu Sisi wished she could sleep next to the fire, because she was afraid of the cold after she was pregnant.
With three layers on the inside and three layers on the outside, everyone was afraid that she would fall when walking in the yard.
Xiao Le is also afraid of the cold, but Mo Cheng is like a big heater, his whole body is warm, and it is very comfortable to hold each other to sleep at night.
The family sat by the fire, and Xiao Dazhu didn't know how to smoke dry tobacco. Xiao Le directed the chrysanthemum grill to pull out the taro. This is also a technical job. It tastes numb if it is not cooked, and it will be mushy if it is overcooked.
The taro is very fragrant, Xiao Le gave two to Liu Sisi, one for himself and Mo Cheng, Xiao Dazhu and the others didn't like to burn it.
"Is it delicious?"
Xiao Le asked Mo Cheng.
Mo Cheng nodded with sparkling eyes.
"There's Suogua over there, it's better to eat it while it's burning," Xiao Wang said.
"It's too big," Xiao Le shook his head, "It takes a long time to bake, I'm too lazy to turn it over, and I can't eat that much, it's a waste."
This is true.
Suddenly, Liu Sisi clutched her stomach and let out an ouch, and the group looked over nervously.
Liu Sisi said embarrassedly, "Kicked me."
The fetus has been moving for a long time, and this is the first time Xiao Le and Mo Cheng have seen it.
"I'll clean up the little guy when I come out."
Xiao Chengyun pretended to scold.
Chrysanthemum pursed her mouth, "I think you are reluctant."
Xiao Chengyun touched his nose, "Why are you reluctant?"
"You are willing, and your parents are not willing to. I don't know who will be cleaned up at that time."
Xiao Le rubbed his head at Ju Hua's words, "It's amazing, you dare to refute what Big Brother said?"
Mo Cheng directly gave Juhua a roasted taro, and Juhua took it with a smile, "I'm not a fool, I'll be fourteen next year."
Hearing this, Xiao Le took a closer look at the chrysanthemum, and it was true that she was much taller, and her facial features became more beautiful, "Like a mother, she looks even more beautiful."
Chrysanthemum blushed, "Mother is the prettiest."
Xiao Wangshi covered her mouth and smiled, "You guys, only Chengyun is like his father."
Xiao Chengyun and Xiao Dazhu: ...
Liu Sisi looked at her husband, then at Chrysanthemum and her brother-in-law, who couldn't help but smile. After careful comparison, it was her husband who was actually slightly less handsome.
Seeing that she was holding back her smile, Xiao Chengyun touched his face that was finally not so dark, "Just wait, I'll go back when this winter is over."
Xiao Le laughed louder, and was finally dragged by Xiao Chengyun to sweep the snow in the yard.
Xiao Le is so cold.
Fortunately, Mo Cheng helped sweep together, and soon went to the fire room to warm up again.
This year's reunion dinner was at Uncle Xiao's house. After lunch, the family brought the prepared items to Uncle Xiao's house.
Mo Cheng was stared at by the boy of Mrs. Fa Cai, and it was okay to watch, and he was drooling while watching, Xiao Le stood in front of Mo Cheng, and made a proud and childish face at the boy.
The kid pursed his mouth, and burst out crying the next moment.
Xiao Facai accepted the child dumbfounded, "It's weird, I'm afraid of Xiao Le."
"I am so mighty and majestic, of course he is afraid of me."
Xiao Le's honey juice is proud.
Xiao Fafu chuckled, "Where do you see that you are mighty and majestic? Come and burn chicken feathers for me."
"Don't lose the beautiful chicken feathers, make shuttlecocks for Meihua and the others."
"I've done it a long time ago, it's too cold to play," Xiao Fafu said.
Mo Cheng was still helping in the kitchen.
"I don't know when it will come out."
Mrs. Fa Cai looked at Liu Sisi's stomach tenderly.
Liu Sisi smiled and said, "Come on, around the beginning of spring, confinement is comfortable even if it's neither hot nor cold."
"That's the reason," Mrs. Facai nodded repeatedly, and while she was talking, Xiao Facai brought over the boy who was making a fuss about looking for a mother.
Mrs. Facai took the child and coaxed her softly. Not long after, she started laughing and joking again.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, Xiao Wang's couple and Liu Sisi's couple went back. Xiao Le and Mo Cheng played wildly at Second Uncle Xiao's house. They didn't return home until the next morning after breakfast, yawning and washing up. Fall back to sleep.
After waking up, Xiao Wang smiled and gave Mo Cheng a big red seal, "You are not allowed to return it, and you are not allowed to give us the red seal this year."
One sentence blocked Mo Cheng to death.
Xiao Le also got one, but not as many as Mo Cheng.
"open to take a look."
Xiao Le closed the door and urged Mo Cheng.
Mo Cheng opened it and moved it away, his eyes were full of surprise, only to see that inside the red envelope was a small silver note of ten taels!
"Wow."
Xiao Le pawed at the banknote, "Mother is so generous."
Mo Cheng opened Xiao Le's red seal, and inside were twelve copper plates.
Xiao Le clicked his tongue, hugged Mo Cheng's neck and rubbed his cheeks, "The new daughter-in-law really wins my mother-in-law's heart."
Mo Cheng's ears turned red, he held his waist, and then took out a red envelope and handed it to Xiao Le.
"For me?"
Mo Cheng nodded.
Xiao Le opened it, and there were 20 taels of silver bills inside.
"I have it too," Xiao Le waved at Mo Cheng, and Mo Cheng lowered his head and was greeted with a resounding kiss, "Happy New Year!"
Mo Cheng was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, put his arms around his waist and kissed him back.
Another sticky day has begun.
Aunt Xiao didn't come this year, but my eldest cousin and his wife came together.
The eldest cousin looks like the eldest uncle, and also has the same temperament. He is a good person, and the elders did not treat the couple coldly because of Aunt Xiao.
Even Xiao Facai knew it wasn't the other party's fault and gave him a smiling face.
This made the couple who were nervous when they came here breathe a sigh of relief.
They left after lunch. When they returned home, their eldest uncle asked about the situation. After learning how the Xiao family treated them well, the eldest uncle sighed and looked at Aunt Xiao who was beside him.
"You, a good family, you made it like this..."
Aunt Xiao's eyes were red, "I really didn't mean it."
"You still say this? One sentence is wrong, and you still think it's not your fault?"
The eldest uncle patted the table fiercely, "You'd better think it over for me, otherwise, otherwise I will separate the family and you will live alone!"
Aunt Xiao was startled, and the children dared not speak.
Liu Sisi was about to give birth, so she didn't go back to her natal family to pay New Year's greetings this year, and her natal family knew this, so brother Liu and sister-in-law Liu came to see her.
Xiao Chengyun in front of Big Brother Liu was very well-behaved, Xiao Le looked at him with suppressed joy, and Xiao Chengyun stared a few times when he was discovered.
After they left, Xiao Le pointed at Xiao Chengyun and laughed, Xiao Chengyun snorted coldly, "Wait, you have a brother-in-law, it's not much better than me!"
Xiao Le laughed louder, hugged Mo Cheng's arm and said, "I won't have a brother-in-law!"
Mo Cheng was also laughing.
Before Xiao Fafu married his wife, Liu Sisi was born. She gave birth very quickly, and within an hour, the little girl was born.
White and fat, the whole family circled around the child and stared at him.
"Like a mother, Bai."
Xiao Le said cheerfully.
"Yes," Liu Sisi, who had been in confinement for a few days, with a confinement veil made by Mrs. Xiao wrapped around her head, nodded with a smile on her face.
"That's good, good," Xiao Chengyun said cheerfully.
Mo Cheng couldn't help but stretch out his hand and poked the little girl's head very lightly. After poking, he looked surprised.
Seeing this, Xiao Le immediately grabbed his hand and asked, "Is it very soft?"
Mo Cheng nodded repeatedly, the family didn't pay attention to the intimacy between the two, they were all looking at the little girl.
Chrysanthemum even touched her little hand, "It's so soft."
"Okay, the children have watched it too, you all go out for me," Mrs. Xiao Wang called in hot water and was about to wipe the little girl's butt.
Xiao Le and the others who were kicked out had a look of reluctance.
Liu Sisi looked at Mrs. Xiao Wang who was busy, and said softly, "Mother, don't be tired."
"What's so tiring?" Xiao Wang hugged her granddaughter with a smile on her face, "Look, how good-looking you are."
Liu Sisi also laughed, "She likes mother."
He had to sleep separately during the confinement period, so Mo Cheng made a small wooden bed for Xiao Chengyun, and he slept next to the big bed. At night, the girl would get up when she cried, but most of the time he hadn’t picked up the little girl yet. Xiao Wang who heard the movement Shi rushed over in a hurry.
After having a little girl, Xiao Wang's heart was attracted by this child.
On the day of Xiao Fafu's marriage, Xiao Le, Mo Cheng and Xiao Dazhu went to help. Xiao Wang was worried about Liu Sisi's mother and daughter, so she talked to Aunt Xiao and the others, but they didn't go there.
Xiao Chengyun didn't dare to leave, because he was afraid that something would happen to Aunt Xiao again.
The courtyard door of their house was tightly closed, but fortunately Aunt Xiao didn't disturb them when she came.
Seeing her flattering smile towards her second uncle and aunt, Xiao Le whispered to Mo Cheng, "It seems that I knew I was wrong."
Mo Cheng nodded, and dragged him to find Xiao Facai.
