"What does he mean? My son is so old, why does he need to poop and urinate?"
"You are stupid! He is calling our son a retard in disguise!"
“Damn it, his ancestors, it’s such a disgrace to have such a mouth!”
"He deserves to have no son and lose his incense!"
The neighbors were so angry that they left cursing.
Soon, the news that Tang Jiancheng was going to build a house in Qingshi'ao spread throughout the village. Everyone regarded it as a joke. People who were close to Tang Jiancheng, as well as several of his brothers, hurriedly Come to the house to persuade him.
After finally persuading his mother to leave, Tang Jiancheng was dumbfounded when he saw so many people coming to the door.
Didn’t I just choose a homestead site, so it was necessary to put in so much effort?
However, he still explained patiently. Of course, he did not say the real reason. He just told them that because the area he wanted was too large and there was no suitable place in the village, only Qingshi Ao could satisfy it, so he chose Qingshi. depression.
Everyone saw that he was not impulsive, but made a decision after careful consideration, so they stopped trying to persuade him.
After everyone left, Tang Jiancheng called the whole family together and said with a smile, "I can finally drink Laba porridge with peace of mind!"
At this time, the Laba porridge has already been cooked, and the bacon dices have melted!
Tang Jiancheng scooped out a big bowl for everyone. The aroma was fragrant and made people salivate.
"drink!"
As soon as Tang Jiancheng gave the order, the family immediately started drinking, with smiles on their faces all very satisfied and happy!
"It tastes great!"
"Dad, I want another bowl!"
"Wow, there's a big piece of meat in my bowl!"
"Ah, it's so painful!"
"What is so bitter? Hahaha, it turns out you have eaten the lotus seed heart! That thing is indeed a bit bitter!"
The family was talking and laughing, and it was very warm.
Tang Jiancheng suddenly thought of the bowl of real spicy porridge that his mother had cooked in his previous life, so he took the bowl to his parents' house.
Tang Genshui, Yuan Yuezhu and Tang Jianbing were also drinking Laba porridge.
There were only three of them, and they were all adults, so the atmosphere when eating porridge was a bit silent. They each held their bowls, found a place, and drank slowly.
Seeing Tang Jiancheng coming with a bowl, Yuan Yuezhu thought he didn't have enough to drink, so he said, "There is still more in the pot. Can I scoop a bowl for you?"
"I have it in my bowl."
Tang Jiancheng smiled and said, "I just came over to see what you were drinking."
Tang Jianbing complained: "I'm really convinced by my mother. Fourth brother, you see, other people's Laba porridge is made of rice, red beans and the like. Our family doesn't have red beans, so my mother puts chili peppers for color. Look, this is Really spicy rice porridge! So spicy!”
"Hahaha, did you really add chili pepper?"
Tang Jiancheng smiled, "Mom, I have to say, you are really talented!"
"Why are you afraid of spicy food? It's not like you've never eaten chili peppers before!" Yuan Yuezhu was also a little embarrassed by the laughter, and spat, "Some drinks are good, but you still have to be picky!"
"Mom, I remember a few days ago, when I bought the red beans, didn't I give you some as a gift?" Tang Jiancheng asked curiously after he finished laughing.
"I can't bear to eat such good red beans," Yuan Yuezhu said.
"Ah? If you buy it, you have to eat it. Otherwise, it would be a pity if it goes bad." Tang Jiancheng said.
"It's not that easy to break!" Yuan Yuezhu said.
"Fourth brother, what kind of Laba porridge is your family cooking? I seem to have smelled the smell of meat early in the morning. You won't add meat to the Laba porridge, right?" Tang Jianbing stood up, looked into Tang Jiancheng's bowl, and said in surprise , "Fourth brother, did you really put meat in it? Laba porridge, isn't it completely vegetarian? How can you put meat in it?"
Tang Jiancheng laughed and said: "What I put here is bacon, this is the real Laba porridge!"
"I also want to drink a bowl." Tang Jianbing said.
"Go ahead, I've cooked a lot today." Tang Jiancheng said, "Mom and dad, do you want to have a drink too?"
"Forget it, we have it ourselves..."
"Okay, let's go. Are you still polite to your son?"
At Tang Jiancheng's invitation, Tang Genshui, Yuan Yuezhu and Tang Jianbing all came to Tang Jiancheng's house, and it suddenly became more lively.
Although the children were a little afraid of Yuan Yuezhu after what happened before, they seemed to be used to it, and with Tang Jiancheng and Sixth Uncle around, they were a little restrained at first, but soon completely let go.
Chirping and noisy.
They liked Uncle Six the most and kept pestering him, asking about sewing hats.
In the afternoon, there was originally an activity of beating drums to drive away evil spirits, but now that the policy has just been loosened, and the villagers are still worried about destroying the four olds, no one is doing it.
Naturally, Tang Jiancheng would not do this, but it did not prevent him from telling the story of beating drums to ward off evil spirits with his family at home.
"According to legend, in ancient times, our place was full of ferocious birds and beasts, and people lived a very difficult life. Not only did they suffer from hunger every day, but they also suffered from the maiming of ferocious birds and beasts, as well as various diseases and plagues... "
Tang Jiancheng spoke slowly.
The children all listened attentively, with their shiny black eyes fixed on Tang Jiancheng. Liu Fangfang was also listening in rapt attention while holding Xiaojiu.
Even Tang Genshui, Tang Jianbing and Yuan Yuezhu were fascinated.
"Finally, we have a hero here! He is strong, he is brave, and he is smart. He leads all the villagers to fight against ferocious birds and beasts. He finds a lot of delicious food and a lot of medicines that can cure diseases. He also I found that those ferocious birds and beasts are afraid of the sound of drums!"
"So, he asked the villagers to beat the drums to scare away the beasts. Over time, he found that beating the drums could not only scare away the beasts, but also scare away evil spirits! The villagers were no longer infected with the plague!"
"However, many years later, he grew old and was no longer strong. Once, while fighting against a beast, he was killed."
"All the villagers were very sad. In order to commemorate him, they decided that on the day of his death, which was the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, everyone would drink porridge made from the food he found and beat drums to drive away the evil beasts. And evil spirits!”
"It has been passed down from generation to generation, and now we have the Laba Festival, where we drink Laba porridge and beat drums to ward off evil spirits."
After Tang Jiancheng finished speaking, he found that everyone was still immersed in the story.
After a while, the third sister asked: "Dad, is this story true?"
Tang Jiancheng smiled and said: "This is a legend, some are true and some are false."
Fifth sister said: "Dad, I also want to be a hero in the future."
Tang Jiancheng was startled for a moment, then encouraged: "Come on, you will definitely do it!"
Xiao Qi said: "Dad, I also want to commemorate this hero. Is there still Laba porridge in the pot? I'll have another bowl!"
ah?
Tang Jiancheng didn't react for a moment.
"Dad, I also want to commemorate the hero!"
Xiao Liu shouted, and Tang Jiancheng came to his senses. He was indeed Xiao Qi. His thoughts were so realistic!
"I also want!"
Xiaoba soon followed.
"Okay, let's just boil it again."
Tang Jiancheng was preparing to make porridge again.
But before he could prepare the materials, three buckets from his third brother's house arrived, "Fourth uncle, my dad said that the cow is about to give birth, so he asked you to hurry over."
