Now that he has won, Tang Xiaoman really doesn't want to stay in this house any longer.
She glanced at Su Pingan, who understood her meaning very well now and knew that Tang Xiaoman was going home and didn't want to stay here anymore.
"Dad, I don't think there's anything else to do, so I'll go back with Xiaoman!"
This matter was actually a bit unpleasant. The quarrel just now made old man Su, who had originally planned to stay together with them, no longer in the mood to keep them together.
He nodded.
"Xiao Taohua, after the New Year, you can go to work on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year!"
Xiao Taohua jumped up with joy when she heard this, "Thank you, Third Aunt. To be honest, Third Aunt, I actually want to go to work tomorrow, the first day of the Lunar New Year, and I can't wait!"
Xiaoman pinched Xiao Taohua's face lovingly.
"naughty!"
Little Taohua was so happy that she sent Su Pingan and Tang Xiaoman to the entrance of the village before reluctantly returning home.
It was a bit dark on the road. There were no street lights at that time. It was just the moonlight in the sky, but I could still see very clearly.
Tang Xiaoman drove the bullock cart, and Su Ping'an sat in the cart.
The two of them enjoyed this moment of tranquility quietly, and began to recall the things that had just happened.
"Xiaoman, the food you cooked today was so delicious!"
Su Ping'an suddenly spoke.
When Tang Xiaoman heard this, he felt a little shy. Now it's just the two of them, talking about these things here, it's really a bit disgusting, but when did Su Ping'an become so disgusting.
"It's delicious. I'll make it for you tomorrow morning, the first day of the new year!"
Tang Xiaomanxin said, as long as you want to eat, I can make more delicious dishes, which you have never seen or eaten before.
Su Ping'an nodded happily and touched Tang Xiaoman's hair involuntarily.
Tang Xiaoman's face turned red. They were both husband and wife, but they had never had such an intimate gesture before.
"What's your favorite dish?"
"Actually, I like the fish-flavored shredded pork dish the most, but I didn't take it away from my sister-in-law and the others, so I made them all eat it!"
"Okay, I'll make you two plates of fish-flavored shredded pork tomorrow!"
"Xiaoman, look at the moonlight tonight, it's really beautiful!"
"What did you do during the Chinese New Year when you were a kid?"
Su Ping'an and Tang Xiaoman sat in the yard together, looking at the stars in the sky. Indeed, this was the first time they had such a quiet New Year. Tang Xiaoman recalled the New Year celebrations at home when she was a child, with the sound of firecrackers at night and the lights on the street. The whole city seemed to be caught in a charming fireworks show. It was lively at that time, but she was not as lively as she is now. It feels that even if it is the New Year, because they live far away from the village, it is still very quiet, so now Tang Xiaoman also feels so much about the New Year.
Tang Xiaoman felt a little homesick, but she simply said that this was also the case during the New Year at home. She ate the New Year's Eve dinner first and then lay down to sleep early.
The two of them worked outside for a while. It was still a little cold in the yard, so they returned to the room. Su Ping'an took out his book again and began to learn to write. Tang Xiaoman helped him look at the words from time to time, and taught him the words he couldn't pronounce.
Now Su Ping'an has recognized all the surnames of hundreds of families, and he has a good memory and can write them quickly.
Tang Xiaoman was bored with her free time. She thought of embroidering some patterns on the newly bought cloth, so she picked up the needle and thread next to her and started to embroider.
Tang Xiaoman first drew a pattern on the white paper with a pen. What did she want to embroider?
First, she embroidered a few beautiful New Year picture dolls on it, and embroidered Happy New Year on the side, using traditional Chinese characters. But speaking of it, Tang Xiaoman was still very uncomfortable with these traditional Chinese characters.
"So beautiful!"
Su Ping'an didn't know when he came close to Tang Xiaoman. When he leaned over to look, he was almost close to Tang Xiaoman. Tang Xiaoman could even feel his breathing.
At this time, Tang Xiaoman became nervous again and his face turned red.
"It's so beautiful. I have never seen such innovative embroidery!"
Tang Xiaoman smiled hurriedly. "Where can I find it? I just embroidered it casually!"
Tang Xiaoman was quite shy when Su Ping'an praised him so much. "Originally, I planned to embroider some large pictures like the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, which would be more grand, but my ability is limited and I'm not good at it!"
"But these little dolls are really cute already!"
Su Pingan was not stingy with his praise, which also surprised Tang Xiaoman. She was pretty good at drawing and embroidering dolls this year. Thinking of this, Tang Xiaoman remembered Doraemon and Crayon Shin-chan.
She began to try to draw the two cartoon images on white paper, and thought that it would be fun to embroider them.
The image of a cat with a big belly and a round head without ears appeared. This embroidery was something Tang Xiaoman learned when he was learning cross stitch.
Isn't this kind of embroidery very innovative? In this era, no one probably knows about Doraemon.
Sure enough, Su Ping'an was no longer in the mood to study anymore, and laughed looking at Doraemon's funny look.
"Xiaoman, what are you embroidering?"
"Yeah, cat!"
"Why is the cat standing like a human? And where are its ears?"
"It must have been eaten by a mouse, right? But it's so capable that it doesn't need ears!"
"Where are its claws? How did they turn into fists?"
Su Ping'an was like a primary school student, very curious about why this kitten, the cat in Tang Xiaoman's painting, was so different from the cats he saw in daily life.
"It doesn't have sharp claws, but have you seen its belly? There is a big pocket on it!"
"Yeah, why is this cat's pocket so big? Or is it sewn on the belly?"
"There are all kinds of good things in this pocket. For example, are you hungry now? It can take out a table full of dinner in no time!"
"What's the feast?"
Su Ping'an continued to act like a primary school student, looking very curious about knowledge.
"That's what we ate today, including braised pork, fish-flavored shredded pork, pork ribs soup..."
Tang Xiaoman continued.
"It's so magical, so it must be a fairy? It's a fairy cat, right?"
Tang Xiaoman heard the word "fairy cat" and it did mean something like that.
"Yes, it's called the fairy cat!"
"Hey, why don't you stop studying and come over to watch me embroidery? Don't you recognize which word it is?"
"Xiaoman, seeing how much you like fairy cats, I will definitely give you one in the future!"
Tang Xiaoman was a little funny when he saw Su Ping'an looking so serious. He still didn't know what this fairy cat was about.
"It would be great if you could really give me one!"
Tang Xiaoman saw Su Pingan and said confidently: "It will definitely work, you believe me!"
Tang Xiaoman smiled, then randomly picked up a peanut from the plate and chewed it in her mouth. It was quite fragrant. She then put the peanut into Su Pingan's mouth.
