Chapter 55

There was no snow during Chinese New Year this year, and the weather was not bad. Although the temperature was a little lower, it was always sunny.

Like the winter of the year Su Qinghe was born, the snow that fell was the biggest in several years.

New Year's Day.

Su Qinghe was pulled up from the bed by her mother, called "Mom" in a daze, and then closed her eyes and fell asleep again.

Wang Xiujuan smiled helplessly, asked someone to lean into her arms, and changed into the clothes she had prepared long ago.

"Go brush your teeth and wash your face first. After breakfast, we will go to uncle's house."

Wang Xiujuan dressed her daughter neatly and went out with her in her arms.

"En." Su Qinghe made a muffled voice, and gradually regained consciousness.

On the other hand, Su Jianguo was also called up by his wife early in the morning, telling him to wake up his son and change his clothes.

When Su Jianguo went in, he saw that none of the children woke up, and they were all curled up in the bed, sleeping soundly, and he didn't know what time they went to sleep last night.

When Sanwa was called up by his father, he was still a little reluctant, because he hadn't slept enough.

Seeing that the man was about to lie down again, Su Jianguo hurriedly stuffed the clothes he was about to wear into his arms.

The clothes were left outside all night, without any temperature, the frozen Sanwa immediately woke up.

"Get up quickly, and go to uncle's house later." Seeing that he was awake, Su Jianguo whispered to him to get dressed quickly.

Sanwa shivered and quickly put the clothes on her body.

It didn't look like it was snowing, but the water tank in the yard was still covered with ice, and the breath that people exhaled was white mist.

After Su Qinghe had breakfast, she poked ice with a stick in the yard with her brother.

The sound of "click, click" is very relaxing.

The brothers and sisters became more and more addicted to poking, and their movements became faster and faster, and they even almost brought water up.

"Stop playing, we're leaving."

Wang Xiujuan and her husband packed all the things they needed to bring, and each of them rode a bicycle, each carrying a child.

Su Qinghe was carried by her grandfather to the back of her mother's bicycle. She was sitting in a special child seat, the one with a backrest, and something was padded under her buttocks.

Speaking of the means of transportation that Su Qinghe is most afraid of, besides cars, bicycles.

The current roads are all gravel roads, with bumps and bumps all the way, and the buttocks of the people sitting behind the bicycle will be knocked out.

Mother Su was worried, and checked the two children again to make sure that their hats, scarves and gloves were well worn, and that no skin was exposed.

"Third baby, hold on tight to Dad." Mother Su was worried, and told her again.

Before there was a child in the family, because he was lazy and didn't catch up, he accidentally fell off the back seat.

At the beginning, no one found out, and the child was stunned. He didn't call for help immediately. When they found out that the child was missing, everyone panicked.

Looking back the same way, I saw the child standing there pitifully and crying alone.

Fortunately, there was no one on the road at the time.

Since then, every time she wants to take the child out, Su's mother has to remind her again and again, for fear that the previous accident will happen again.

"I know grandma." Sanwa replied crisply, holding her father's clothes tightly with both hands.

Compared with her brother, Su Qinghe's seat is much more comfortable, not only is it a bit taller, but she doesn't have to worry so much.

"Goodbye, grandpa and grandma." Su Qinghe turned her head and waved.

Originally, on the first day of the new year, according to the custom, one would not go out to pay New Year's greetings.

But because of the special situation of the Wang family, they have been following their own habits.

Wang Xiujuan and sisters went back to their natal home on the first day of the new year, and went to Su Qinghe's grandmother's house to pay New Year's greetings together on the second day.

Wang family.

Wang Zhihui also got up early in the morning. Today, the eldest sister and the younger sister are going to bring their children back, so he needs to get things ready early.

Fortunately, when the house was built, I thought that the elder sister, the younger sister and a few nephews would come back to live in the future, so I reserved a few more rooms, so that there would be no place to live when I came back.

The room was cleaned long before the Chinese New Year, and the bedding was also dried in the sun.

I stewed half of the Chinese New Year chicken yesterday, and stewed the remaining half today. I also killed a goose, and I also killed a freshly raised fish today.

"Dad, when will sister-in-law and the others arrive?" Tian Tian thought of her sweet and soft little cousin, and felt that time passed so slowly.

She got up very early in the morning today, and didn't sleep in, just to see her cousin earlier.

Although the son on the side didn't speak, he also agreed with what his sister said. He took out his toys early, and he can play with him when his cousin comes.

For this reason, those little friends came to the house early in the morning to ask him to go out to pay New Year's greetings and ask for red envelopes without going.

"It's coming soon." Wang Zhihui looked at the time, and the little girl was almost here.

As soon as the voice fell, a crisp bell sound floated over.

"Sister-in-law is here, it's my sister-in-law." Tian Tian bouncing out to greet her.

When Su Jianguo saw someone coming out, his cycling speed gradually slowed down, and he stopped by the door.

"Little uncle, sister-in-law, Happy New Year." Tian Tian was not afraid of life at all, her mouth seemed to be smeared with honey.

Hao Hao followed closely behind his sister, imitating his sister and saying hello, "Little Uncle, Happy New Year, Sister-in-law."

"I haven't seen you for a while, Tiantian has become more beautiful again, and my little uncle can't recognize her anymore." Su Jianguo joked with a smile, "Haohao has also grown a lot taller, and he will surpass my little uncle soon."

"Uncle, sister Tiantian, brother Haohao, happy new year." Sanwa jumped out of the car, her butt was still aching.

But seeing my cousin and cousin, the child's playfulness was immediately aroused, and the pain on the buttocks was quickly forgotten.

"Don't block the door, let sister-in-law and the others come in first." Wang Zhihui couldn't laugh or cry when he saw a pair of sons and daughters blocking the door.

"Brother, where is sister-in-law?" Wang Xiujuan pushed her bicycle in and saw that sister-in-law was not in the yard.

"Working in the kitchen." Wang Zhihui said as he carried his niece out of the car.

As soon as Su Qinghe's feet landed on the ground, she was hugged by her cousin, and said in an excited voice, "Sister, you are finally here."

"Sister Tiantian." Su Qinghe's soft voice came from under the scarf.

She now has a pair of eyes exposed, and being embraced by sister Tiantian so excitedly, the eyes that could still be seen are gone.

Only by the sound of her voice, she knew that it was her cousin who was holding her.

On the other side, Sanwa also played hand in hand with her cousin very quickly, and Sanwa brought toys here.

"Brother, you and Jianguo take the things down, and I'll go see my sister-in-law." Seeing that the four children were playing together soon, Wang Xiujuan walked into the house without worrying.

The two men were left alone to move things down in the yard, and the four children had already gone to the house to play.

"Sister-in-law." Wang Xiujuan went to the kitchen to see her sister-in-law was chopping things there. The voice was so loud that she didn't hear her calling her just now.

"Juan'er is back." Song Yuzhen smiled pleasantly when she saw him.

Without waiting for Wang Xiujuan to speak again, he told her to put a bowl of eight-treasure porridge in the pot, "It's still hot, it's too rotten."

My sister-in-law likes to drink the eight-treasure porridge she cooks. Every Chinese New Year, she will make the ingredients for the eight-treasure porridge in advance, so that it is easy to boil.

"Sister-in-law don't be too busy, sit down and rest for a while."

"You eat first, I'll finish this and I'll be here right away." Song Yuzhen said while speeding up the movements of her subordinates.

"Are the two children here?"

Just as he was talking, he heard the sound of a few children running in, and he heard the sound before he saw anyone.

"Auntie."

"Happy New Year, Auntie."

Song Yuzhen never let go of the smile on her face when she saw the two children.

Wang Xiujuan dressed them festively for the Chinese New Year. I don't know if the little face was frozen or covered for too long. It was so red that people couldn't help pinching it.

If it wasn't for the fact that her hands were still chopping vegetables, Song Yuzhen would have reached out to touch them if she could.

"Auntie cooked eight-treasure porridge, Sanwa and my sister, would you like some?"

"Yes!" Su Qinghe likes to eat these the most, they are sweet and delicious.

This was the first time that Su Qinghe came to her uncle's house during the Chinese New Year. In previous years, she was taken over by her uncle to live for a period of time during the summer vacation.

But every time I come here, my aunt will cook eight-treasure porridge for them. The taste of the brother and sister is very similar to that of Wang Xiujuan, and they both like to eat this kind of boiled rotten food.

"I also want."

"I want to eat too." Seeing that the younger brother and sister wanted to eat, the Tiantian sister and brother argued for it too.

"Didn't you have eaten in the morning?" Song Yuzhen looked at the two children with a smile.

"It's okay, let's eat some more, sister-in-law will serve it for you." Wang Xiujuan took two more bowls, and filled half a bowl for several children.

Not too much, just enough to quench my thirst.

Help them carry their bowls to the table outside and ask them if they want some sugar.

Su Qinghe scooped up a little with a spoon, tasted it, and shook her head. There was already a lot of sugar in the eight-treasure porridge, which was just right for her.

"Sister-in-law, I want to add some sugar." Haohao loves sweets, so he always adds a lot of sugar to his food.

"Juan'er, add less sugar to him." Song Yuzhen in the kitchen hurriedly stopped when she heard her son's voice.

"If you eat any more, your teeth will be gone."

When Haohao heard his mother's words, his little face instantly collapsed. Now that he is changing his teeth, the family doesn't let him eat candy, let alone candy.

"Let's add less sugar, sister-in-law brought you a gift, go and see if you like it after eating."

Haohao, who was a little unhappy when he heard that there was a gift, became excited again in an instant, and his displeasure about his mother asking him to eat less sugar was gone.

"I also brought a gift for Sister Tiantian." Su Qinghe moved closer to her cousin's ear and whispered to her.

Tiantian was not as excited as his younger brother showed, but the speed of eating was significantly faster.

Every time my sister-in-law and the others brought them things that other children in the village had never seen before, every time they brought them out, they would make others envious for a long time.

"You're wasting money buying them again."

Every time my sister-in-law comes here, she brings a lot of things for the two children, and she doesn't tell her how much it costs, she is not stupid, and those things don't look cheap.

Tell her not to buy it, and don't listen, just say it didn't cost much.

Song Yuzhen sometimes felt that she must have done a lot of good things in her previous life, otherwise how could she have such a good family.

Sister-in-law and sister-in-law are easy to get along with, and they will send a lot of things to the family during the New Year and holidays. There are no parents-in-law and mother-in-law in the family, so there will be no troubles in getting along with mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Before she was married, she would always listen to her married sister coming home and complaining to her family that her mother-in-law always made troubles.

Even when she was pregnant and confinement, Fei Fei didn't serve her confinement, but also asked her to work in the fields.

The two sisters are only five years apart, but now the two sisters stand together as if they are a generation behind. They are only in their 30s, but they already have white hair on their heads.

Every time I saw her, she was sad and thankful that she married a good man. Although there was no one to help, and many things were helped by the husband and wife bit by bit, the life was more comfortable than most people.

"Ha ha ha ha."

"I want this."

The noise of the four children playing in the room came in from time to time. The four children were not much different, and they just happened to be able to play together.

"Yangyang brought his younger siblings out, we are about to set off."

"coming."

In a small room, a group of children, big and small, came out.

The big one has almost caught up with their father's height, and the small one is like Su Qinghe before reaching the thigh of the biggest obedient boy.

Despite this, a few children can still play together, and the adults who watch it are strange every time.

"Bring all your things." Wang Xiuping checked the offerings that were going to be brought to his father's grave later.

Unlike her younger sister, she has deep feelings for her father. When her father first left, her mother also divorced and remarried very quickly, which hit her the hardest.

"It's all ready, let's go, close the door." A group of people went out in a mighty manner.

On the road, I also met people from the same village, all of whom were carrying things in their hands. Like them, they had to go to the grave.

"Go to see your dad." On the way, I couldn't help exchanging a few greetings, and seeing a large group of children behind me, I sighed that the children are so old.

"I haven't seen my dad for a year, so burn something for him."

When he was far away, the man couldn't help but look back.

Who would have thought that the three children who lost their parents back then would live a better life than them all now, who would have thought that.

It was the first time for Su Qinghe to go to the grave with her parents, and it could even be said that it was the first time in two lifetimes that she went to the cemetery.

When I was young before, the country people were somewhat superstitious, saying that children can see things that adults can't, and they will be taken away.

The further back the road got worse, Su Qinghe looked at the shoes that were clean before going out, but now they were covered with yellow mud.

No wonder her mother asked her to change her rain boots before leaving the house. If she wore her own shoes, the shoes would be useless before she got to the place.

However, Su Qinghe looked at the thick layer of loess on the soles of her feet and felt a little reluctant to leave.

"dad."

As soon as Su Jianguo heard his daughter's voice, he knew that the little guy didn't want to leave again.

"Give me the things, and you hold the baby." Xu Weiwen smiled and took the things from his brother-in-law.

"Put your shoes in here."

Wang Xiujuan had expected her daughter to be like this, so she specially brought a plastic bag to store her shoes, otherwise she would be covered in muddy shoes.

Seeing that my sister can be hugged, the younger children couldn't help but envy, and their eyes began to look for their parents.

"You go on your own, how old is your sister, you still need to be hugged when you are this old."

Excited by the words of the adults, the children who didn't want to be lazy at first refused to admit defeat, and tried hard to keep up with the footsteps of the adults.

"Hmph, just go by yourself." Fortunately, there was someone to accompany me, so I didn't find it too difficult to walk along the way.
