A group of people were chatting and laughing, and time passed quickly. At half past ten, Zhao Dongmei entered the kitchen and prepared to cook.
Seeing this, many beauties quickly followed and helped.
The meal at noon was naturally very rich.
In the afternoon, Gao Hong followed Gao Mingcheng to his house in the county and visited the first to third floors.
"Not bad, Mingcheng, you're doing pretty well." Gao Hong said with a smile.
Gao Mingcheng led him to the men's clothing store on the first floor and said, "I don't know your current figure, so I didn't give you a set of clothes in advance. You can choose your own now!"
Gao Hong did not pick one, but said: "No need, I wear a military uniform every day in the army. My mother has already bought one for me, and it suits me quite well."
He refused to take it, but Gao Mingcheng insisted on giving it to him, and said with a smile: "You are going on a blind date the day after tomorrow, why don't you dress more energetically? Just pick one. My clothes are all purchased at a purchase price, which is better than buying them outside, but Much cheaper!”
Finally, with Gao Mingcheng's persuasion, Gao Hong chose a suitable set of clothes on the spot. Needless to say, after putting on the new clothes, he instantly felt more energetic!
Gao Mingcheng looked him up and down and praised: "Not bad, he is more energetic and handsome! When we go on a blind date the day after tomorrow, I guarantee it will happen!"
"Hey!" Gao Hong also smiled. Originally, he didn't really want to get married, but seeing that his good brother Gao Mingcheng was already married, he felt that he should get married too.
Now that his mother has arranged a blind date for him, he is starting to look forward to it.
He looked at this new suit and felt that it looked pretty good.
But he quickly took off his new clothes and put back on his previous clothes. As for this new set of clothes, he should wait until the fourth day of the Lunar New Year to wear them.
Gao Mingcheng's house had already been visited, and then the three of them returned to Gaojiacun.
Gao Hong also went with him because he hadn't been back to Gaojia Village for a long time and missed it a little.
Another thing, they here insist on going to the graves to worship ancestors on the third day of the Lunar New Year, so you can't come to visit your ancestors on the third day of the Lunar New Year. Therefore, Gao Hong will follow Gao Mingcheng home today, stay one night at Gao Mingcheng's house, and then go to the mountains to pay homage to his grandfather on the third day of the Lunar New Year. Grandma visited the grave and told her current situation.
When Gao Hong wanted to return to Gaojia Village, Gao Mingcheng naturally welcomed him. The tractor made noise and ran on the quiet mountain road.
When we arrived at Gaojiacun, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon. Everywhere they walked, Gao Hong and Gao Mingcheng would talk about what happened when they were children. Where and where they had a fight, who fell down and who climbed a tree. such as.
The car stopped at the edge of the village pond, because Gao Hong wanted to visit his old house.
Although the old house is dilapidated and contains nothing, its existence itself is a kind of sustenance of memories.
Gao Mingcheng accompanied Gao Hong. Along the way, he naturally met many people from the village. In the old village, every household lived in close proximity. At four o'clock in the afternoon, people who went out to pay New Year's greetings also came back early, and the children were even more excited. It was the whole village running around, leaving behind laughter and laughter.
When they saw Gao Hong, the older generation stopped him one after another and asked about Gao Hong.
Gao Hong naturally stood up obediently and answered the questions. While talking, the hospitable elders enthusiastically served tea and melon seeds to Gao Hong and Gao Mingcheng.
After chatting for nearly an hour, Gao Hong got away from the crowd and was able to return to his old house. After a few quick glances, Gao Hong's mind was filled with memories.
"Hey, let's go!" Gao Hong sighed, the past cannot be recalled, and the happy time spent in this house when he was young is now gone.
In the blink of an eye, the naughty children of the past have grown up and taken on responsibilities.
After leaving the old village, Gao Mingcheng drove a tractor and took Gao Hong directly to his home in Niuweiling.
Duo Mei had already returned early. She made the bed in the spare room and put out various fruits and snacks. Then she went into the kitchen to prepare dinner.
While she was washing rice, she heard the familiar sound of a tractor and the barking of dogs. The two dogs instantly ran out of the yard to greet Gao Mingcheng.
Gao Mingcheng parked the car and proudly introduced his dogs to Gao Hong. Black Tiger and Elf were both very well-behaved, and they were indeed worth boasting about.
Gao Hong looked at the two dogs and then echoed a few words.
It was getting dark, but Gao Hong couldn't sit still, so he proposed to go for a walk in Xiaofu Mountain, which Gao Mingcheng contracted.
Gao Mingcheng said: "I only contracted Xiaofushan in the middle of last year, and encountered Tiangan again in the second half of the year, so there is not much to see now. Wait until next year. When you come back, it will definitely be a treasure mountain!"
"Everything is difficult at the beginning. I believe you can turn it into a truly rich and treasured mountain! Well, your pond is nice. When spring comes, you can go get some lotus root whips, plant a lotus root in the pond, and then raise it. Some fish, how comfortable this is!" Gao Hong stared at the pond at the foot of the mountain and had already made arrangements.
"By the way, are you planting peach trees? I like to eat peaches! Well, let's plant some grapefruits! You can save the grapefruits for the Chinese New Year."
Gao Mingcheng smiled and said: "Don't worry, you have to plant all the things you mentioned. No matter when you come back to visit relatives in the future, you can eat the fruits of Xiaofu Mountain!"
"Hey, it's good if you say this!" The two of them chatted while turning Xiaofushan around, but they didn't turn it all around. Although Xiaofushan is not big, it takes a lot of money to do it once. time.
When it got dark, the two returned home.
Many Americans have already prepared dinner, asking them to wash their hands and eat. The hard dish tonight is stewed yellow deer meat.
Because the yellow muntjac was too young, Gao Mingcheng didn't give it to others, but kept it for himself to eat. Now stew half a pot, enough for Gao Hong to eat happily.
The next day is the third day of the Lunar New Year. It is taboo to go to other people's homes on this day. Even if you don't need to go up the mountain to offer sacrifices to your ancestors, you can't go to other people's homes on this day.
Gao Hong was going to visit the graves of his grandparents, and Gao Mingcheng went with him. As for Duomei, she didn't go to visit the graves of her parents because she only went there during the Qingming Festival last year, and because she was too busy recently, she didn't have time. Make rice crackers.
If I didn’t bring rice crackers to the sacrifice, I always felt like something was missing.
Gao Hong made a rare trip back to the village. He didn't bring rice crackers, but he brought a piece of meat, candy and a few apples prepared by Gao Mingcheng.
On this day when they are not allowed to visit other people's homes, gamblers still gather in the temporary gambling room prepared by the banker and start gambling one after another. During this period, some people are happy, some are lamenting, and some have lost all their wealth. .
Suddenly, someone shouted: "Killing! Killing!"
The miserable screams woke up the people who were trapped in gambling. When they looked up, they only saw a person covering his chest and falling down with pain on his face.
A large amount of blood gushed out from his chest, soaked the black cotton clothes on his body, and then flowed to the ground.
Seeing this scene, everyone didn't care to continue gambling. They grabbed the money on the table in panic and ran away.
The man who fell with the knife was the banker of this gambling house. As soon as he died, the others left in a hurry, but no one dared to call the police.
