Pioneer of the Rebirth Era
Chapter 1,135 Rural Customs
The sun shone brightly yesterday and the sky was blue, but snowflakes started to fall again the next day. Fortunately, there are roads in and out of Yangjiacun. In other villages, it is estimated that after the new year, we will have to visit relatives early before the freeze has melted, otherwise we will definitely lose money later.
Mud feet.
They didn't drink at Yang's house last night. Yang Ma and Zhou Ya had originally prepared the dishes for frying. But the general called for someone and took Yang Dongxu away, so he had to bring a bottle of good wine to the general's house to drink.
Had a game.
I drank a little too much and my head was foggy. But after washing my face and drinking a bowl of millet porridge, I felt completely refreshed. Before there was any snow on the road, I quickly went to the farmhouse to pick up the three old men.
Because the snow seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, I rushed back without having lunch at the farmhouse.
"Why are you bringing so many things back? There are so many things at home and I can't finish them all." Seeing Yang Dongxu start to move things from the trunk of the car, Yang's mother scolded and handed the little Wenchen in her arms to Zhou Ya.
Wanted to come over and help.
"Just hold it, Mom. I'll move it." Zhou Ya pushed her son back and helped Yang Dongxu move the things.
"Xiao Cheng said that he would only do business today, but there was a heavy snowfall and there were not many customers. We will not open until the sixth day of the new year after the new year. Some dishes were left wilted and difficult to serve. I will definitely buy fresh ones after the new year, so I asked
Pulled some back.
It's not just me, when I went there, he was piling some dishes for the chefs and waiters to take back." Yang Dongxu said while moving things.
Most of them are fresh vegetables, which I just bought and prepared for today's business. Now that I don't need them, I asked my brother-in-law to bring some back. In addition to vegetables, there are also some fish and a few turtles.
The Yang family runs their own pig farm, and the eldest sister Hongying is worried that there will be no meat at home. It is difficult to deliver fresh meat, and I have never heard of all kinds of bacon and cured meat all year round, so there is no shortage of meat here in the Yang family, so
I gave him fish and soft-shell turtles and so on.
"The color of this turtle's shell is quite heavy, but it's different from the wild ones. The turtles sold on the street are farmed at first glance, and the shells look soft." Although Yang's mother complained, she was still a little happy in her heart.
After all, although parents don't care what their children give them, filial piety will make them happy.
"The one you are looking at is indeed wild. It was caught in the reservoir two days ago and has not been fed. The other ones are all farmed, but because the water area of the reservoir is relatively large.
And they don’t feed much, they just put in small miscellaneous fish as bait, which is indeed better than other intensively cultured soft-shelled turtles. Not to mention other things, it’s more energetic than others.” Yang Dongxu said with a smile.
"Then I'll clean this one up tonight and make soup for the old man to drink."
"We are all old. What can we do? Don't put anything in the stew for a while and give it to Xiao Wenchen. It is the time when the child is growing up." Old man Xuan wanted to help, but Yang Dongxu refused. So he was angry.
He glanced at Yang Dongxu, then turned around and reached out to tease Xiao Wenchen with a doting smile.
Such differential treatment made Yang Dongxu just roll his eyes.
Besides, as long as children aged two or three years old have balanced nutrition, will they be able to grow taller?
Don’t you have to wait until you are half-grown to live in poverty before you need to keep up with nutrition so that you can grow taller?
"By the way, old man, please check the pulse of a cousin of mine and his wife in a moment." Yang Dongxu turned to Mr. Sun and said.
When a boyfriend and girlfriend are together and don't want to get married, their biggest fear is getting pregnant. But if they want to get married, what they want most is to get pregnant right away.
It has been almost two months since Zhang Jing packed up her luggage and moved into the general's house. Both of them wanted to have a baby soon. Yesterday, when we were drinking, the general drank a lot and said that he wanted to have a baby.
What if we really fall in love?
"Okay, got it." Mr. Sun responded.
On New Year's Eve, we get up early in the morning and put the children into new clothes. In the morning, they start making paste and pasting couplets. At noon, they cook a big pot of meat and bones. This is lunch.
When it was getting dark in the afternoon, people from one sect gathered together, brought paper and cannons, and began to visit the graves of their ancestors in the cemeteries around the village.
I heard before that a cemetery will be built in Yangjiacun. In the future, the elderly will be buried in the planned cemetery when they die. And the old cemetery will also be moved there.
Many people did not agree because they did not want to touch the graves of the older generation, so the cemetery planning was not finalized. So when the old people passed away, they still invited Mr. Yin and Yang to come over and see where the land was suitable for burial.
Therefore, there are many cemeteries around the village. Every time we hold ancestor worship at the end of the year, we basically walk around the village in a large circle before returning.
After returning from the ancestor worship, Yang's mother, Zhou Ya, Cui's mother, and the aunt who came to help had almost prepared the New Year's Eve dinner. Grandpa and grandma were called over, as well as my uncle's family.
This has basically been the case for the past few years, with the whole family gathered around a specially customized huge rotating dining table. The family did not seem deserted because of the two married daughters, but instead felt more lively.
After dinner, a few old people sat down to talk and watch TV for a while, and then went back to go to bed early. The older generation went to bed early, and basically went to bed after eight o'clock.
In fact, people nowadays go to bed very early, usually by nine or ten o'clock. It's not like when smartphones came out a few years later, everyone would still feel energetic holding a mobile phone at eleven or twelve o'clock.
And after falling asleep, I still can’t sleep well and often suffer from insomnia.
My brother-in-law wanted to go to a big brand, so he took Father Yang with him. Although he has restrained himself a little over the years, this problem has never been changed.
However, as the children grow older, they are not as dissolute as before. In addition, the aunt is really virtuous, and I don’t know if one thing will bring another thing down. The grandparents can’t control the uncle, and virtuous doesn’t lose his temper very much.
His aunt took care of him honestly.
Although I occasionally make mistakes, in recent years, I have never gotten angry or quarreled with my aunt because of playing cards or other things.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Perhaps it is because the child has grown up that my uncle has finally found the responsibility of being a father.
"Don't play too big?" the aunt couldn't help but asked.
"I know, how much fun can we have in our village without going outside?" the uncle responded victoriously.
The aunt pursed her lips and said nothing.
There is already a big game in Yangjiacun. After all, Yangjiacun is a market. Many people who like to play cards at the end of the year and feel that they are not satisfied in their own small village will come to Yangjiacun to play. If they want to play more, they can only play in a bigger way.
Went to town.
In the past few years, although the health of Grandpa and others has been getting worse day by day, the trend of playing cards has been lower than before, but it is still restrained. There are already signs of an increase.
However, thanks to the development of the country in recent years, everyone's pockets have become a lot richer than before. Although the game is a bit bigger, there is no such thing as losing all the money that has been earned outside for a year.
Then the whole family got into a fight on New Year's Day, which was never reported. So everyone turned a blind eye to the big fun on New Year's Eve.
Victory, who has been holding back for a year, definitely wants to take advantage of this opportunity to have fun, but he obviously can't do it alone. Because no matter whether he loses or wins, his aunt will not give him a good look. But it's different when he brings Yang's father, how much
There's a little wiggle room.
Especially if you are unlucky and lose a lot of money, Yang's father will basically help you. It is said that there are people who are brave enough to guarantee the bottom, and Shengli feels that he will definitely be able to kill everyone today.
"Go and watch it later." Yang's mother kicked Yang Dongxu who was teasing her son.
"I know." Yang Dongxu responded.
In fact, there was no need for Yang's mother to shout, Xiao Wu and others had already come to see Yang Dongxu to go out to play.
When playing cards, there is basically one pavilion for the older generation and one pavilion for the young people. Everyone plays mahjong and Pai Gow, but not much.
When the older generation and the young people start to get together in the warm place, and there are a few more heckles, it's time to get excited. Then a large group of people gather around a card table, including those who sit in the banker's seat and those who play side tables.
It's like raising funds and slowly getting bigger and bigger.
"The granary is locked by Grandpa, where are we going to play this year?" He forgot to put two packs of cigarettes in his pocket when he went out and followed Xiao Wu out of the house. In fact, people who play cards don't like to smoke, because it is said to be unlucky to loose money.
But Yang Dongxu obviously doesn't have this taboo. Besides, winning or losing is just a small amount of money in his opinion. If he loses money, he can't complain about it and feel uncomfortable even sitting on the bench.
The reason why the granary becomes a gathering place for card games during the Chinese New Year is because at the end of the year, the public grains handed in by each village will be emptied. The space inside is large enough for many people to gather.
However, for some unknown reason this year, half of the public grains handed over by the village are still stored in the granary, so naturally the granary cannot be opened for playing cards.
That's right! Now farmers still have to pay public grain according to the amount of land they cultivate.
But if I remember correctly, starting from this year, the government will begin to reduce or reduce agricultural taxes on a large scale. Then by the end of next year, agricultural taxes will be completely abolished. Farmers who cultivate land will not only not have to pay public grain, but will also receive subsidies.
As a farmer, I still remember this incident clearly. This is also the policy that he has insisted on and implemented since he came to power, making the people very grateful.
"Go to Da Mao's Restaurant. Usually there are people playing cards in the backyard, so it's a good place to go. Otherwise, if you go to anyone's house during the Chinese New Year, you won't want to see anyone's wife and children." Da Liang said with a smile.
If it's just a few brothers playing mahjong or something, that's basically no problem. After all, all the families are familiar with each other. When Yang Dongxu comes back, he either eats here or drinks somewhere else.
But at the end of the year, many people came out to play cards and made a lot of noise, which was a bit unwelcome.
And in the past two years, there have been more and more mahjong parlors in some cities, and this trend has begun to spread to small towns. Yangjiacun is a market, although because people go out to work all year round, there is no professional mahjong parlor. But the big-name mahjong parlors
People also began to gather in places
