Chapter 109 New Year’s Eve Atmosphere

The next day, Yan Xin really went to buy fireworks.

However, the town he went to this time was not the town where their village was located, but a town on the other side of the river.

It's not the same county or city as them, but it's relatively close to their village. It's only about four or five miles away from their home, but you have to cross a river.

For such a distance, it doesn't matter whether there is a car or not. If there is a bicycle, you can ride there, or if you don't have a bicycle, you can walk there.

During the Chinese New Year, Dad Yan went to sell the big crucian carp kept in the pond behind him. He just carried a load and walked to the next town. It was nothing more than paying two yuan to cross the river - one yuan to go and one yuan to come back.

In drought years, you can walk directly across the dry river bottom in winter, saving even the two yuan crossing fee.

If you want to go to your own town, you have to walk ten to twenty miles. It's too far. It takes half a day to walk there and half a day to get back. One day's time is lost every time you go back and forth.

Yan Xin also has a bicycle at home. He bought it when he was in sixth grade. It has been rusty for six or seven years and has become an old and broken bicycle.

When I pushed it out and pumped it up, it made a clattering sound and felt like it was about to fall apart.

It can't be compared with Feng Xi's bicycle.

Dad Yan warned him: "Be careful when riding a bicycle, don't slip."

Yan Xin smiled and said: "Dad, you think so highly of me. Do I dare to ride a bicycle on such a road? I just push it and use it to carry things to save energy."

There was still thick snow on the ground at this time, so it was very dangerous to ride a bicycle.

In the past, Yan Xin still had the courage to ride a bicycle on the snow, but after his rebirth, he cherished his life very much and would never do such a dangerous thing.

I pushed my bicycle there just so that I could feel more relaxed when I came back from doing the New Year shopping.

As soon as Yan's father heard what he said, he understood that his son not only wanted to buy fireworks, but also other things.

Otherwise, we wouldn’t have pushed the bicycle all the way there.

Wanting to stop it, I opened my mouth and then gave up.

If the child is happy, let him do it.

Anyway, life is not as tight as before now, so it should be more festive.

Yan Xin wore rain boots on his feet and gloves on his hands. After breakfast, he pushed his bicycle to the next town.

In the bicycle frame, there are also two snakeskin bags and a strap, which are prepared for loading.

In the town, he bought some fireworks, pork trotters and ribs, snacks like melon seeds and peanuts, and four large bottles of Coke.

I saw someone selling cotton shoes on the street, and I thought that the shoes my father wore had been repaired countless times, so I bought two more pairs of cotton shoes.

It cost a few hundred dollars in total.

The snow on the road had not yet melted, and he did not dare to ride his bicycle, so he pushed it all the way over and back again.

When I got home, it was already past 12 noon, and the food was already prepared and waiting for him to eat.

While eating, Yan’s father also said to Yan Xin:

"The girl from yesterday came to see you again today and left a piece of pork here, saying that her parents thanked you for helping her brother."

Yan Xin was stunned for a moment and just said oh without saying anything.

I don’t know if this so-called helper meant to prevent Feng Chen from jumping into the river or to inform him of the news that Wei Qiang wanted to take the money and escape, so that Feng Chen could successfully get his hard-earned money and give Feng Chen’s master the opportunity to become a contractor.

Anyway, no matter what the reason was, he could still afford this piece of pork.

Father Yan was also curious about what kind of help his son had done for others, so he asked people to send him pork as a thank you.

Yan Xin did not say anything about stopping Feng Chen from jumping into the river, but only said that their contractor Wei Qiang wanted to take the money and escape.

This surprised Yan's father. He didn't expect his son to be able to do such a thing.

This helped a lot of people.

Yan Xin didn't worry about this, and said: "They are the ones who mainly solve the problem. I just happened to know about it and it didn't play such a big role. And even if I don't tell them about it, their money will be lost after all."

It can still be achieved, but there will be more twists and turns. Don’t publicize this.”

In this paragraph, the key point lies in the last sentence.

He didn't want this matter to be publicized.

He hopes that the impact of this incident will be as small as possible.

This incident has indeed helped a lot of people, but it has also offended others.

At least Wei Qiang was thoroughly offended.

Wei Qiang severely injured the mistress this time, and he will most likely be imprisoned for several years.

When this person is released from prison, whether and who he will seek revenge on are also issues worth worrying about.

If he seeks revenge on his mistress and Xiaoshan's mistress like he did in his previous life, that's fine. It can only be said that it's dog eating dog, and neither of them are good people.

If you find him, you will be in big trouble.

The best way is not to publicize this matter, so that Wei Qiang will not turn his anger on him.

Father Yan would also chat with people when he had free time. If his son had done something that made him proud, he would also like to publicize it so that more people could feel his joy.

However, Yan Xin doesn't want this name.

I explained it to his dad, and his dad understood and said that he would never tell anyone about this matter.

Another day later, the sun came out and the snow began to melt.

During the Chinese New Year, the father and son didn't have much to do except clean up the house and prepare for the Chinese New Year.

This month is not thirty. On the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, Feng Xi sent another basket of oranges. The two of them chatted for half an hour about opening an online store.

Feng Xi told Yan Xin that her brother Feng Chen had arrived at his master's house and called her that day to ask her parents to send something to Yan Xin's house to thank him for his help.

That's how that piece of pork came to be.

The pork was brought back from her grandpa's house, and when it was given to her, her parents were somewhat reluctant to part with it.

But this time Feng Xi brought oranges, but her parents didn't say anything.

After all, oranges are not worth much now. People may not buy them even if they cost two or three cents per catty. A basket of oranges only costs a few catties, so they are not worth even two dollars, so it won’t hurt your body.

"These oranges are quite delicious," Yan Xin said to her, "If you have more at home, you can bring some over, forget about the meat."

It's not like he doesn't know the personalities of Feng Xi's parents, so there's no need to make him unhappy because of this.

By New Year's Eve, the snow on the road has basically melted, with only some remaining snow in some places facing away from the sun.

On this day, the father and son cooperated and put couplets on the doors and windows.

As for posting couplets, I haven't done it for several years.

Now that the red couplets are pasted on it, this dilapidated home finally has a bit of a New Year atmosphere.
