Fireworks and firecrackers are prohibited in cities, but there are no such restrictions in rural areas.
Set off cannons when it's time to set off, and set off fireworks when it's time to set off. Without these things to help out, the Chinese New Year will not have the flavor of the New Year.
Wang Dachun's family is very lively during the Chinese New Year this year. There are more than a dozen tables in the yard. The snow has been shoveled away long ago, and the water is dried with a dryer. There is a charcoal brazier under each table. There are not many other things in rural areas. Things like charcoal are very rare in cities and usually cost several cents per pound. But in rural areas, especially in mountainous areas, the most indispensable thing is wood and charcoal.
The method of making charcoal is very simple. Put the wood into the kiln and burn it. When it is burned until it turns red, it means that the wood has been fully burned. Then, it is poured out with water, and the charcoal is made.
Villagers use charcoal for heating in winter, which is environmentally friendly and warm.
There was a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner on the table, freshly baked wild boar stewed with radish, golden roast chicken, and several pots. Every table was so rich that I almost cried with greed for the radish head.
After setting off the firecrackers, the old village chief stood on the chair and said a few words, "Folks, on this occasion of the Spring Festival, I wish you all a happy Spring Festival and all the best... The most important thing is to thank one person. Who do you think it is?"
"Wang Dachun!" the villagers said in unison, the voice was deafening. This was everyone's cry from the heart. Without Wang Dachun, they would still be struggling on the poverty line. After the New Year, this spring, they will live in a brand new big house. Villas and resorts will also be built soon.
None of them would have believed it a year ago, but since Wang Dachun was born, all of this has come true in just a few months, and it is like a dream.
It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a miracle.
Wang Dachun waved his hand quickly, "Folks, you're welcome, the dishes are cold, start eating quickly!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Carrot Head quickly broke off a chicken leg and started to feast on it. Everyone burst out laughing, this guy was like a sperm.
Wang Dachun's family is sitting together, with Li Ruoxi on the left and Yun Zhu on the right. It can be said that they are hugging each other, and they are as beautiful as the sky.
During the banquet, the villagers came forward to toast Wang Dachun one after another. Wang Dachun refused to accept anyone who came. Some people toasted Wang Jianguo and Liu Juan, praising them for having a good son. Wang Jianguo grinned almost to his ears. Who has such a son? Everyone will be proud.
Aunt Niu walked up to Liu Juan and toasted her with a glass of wine. She glanced at Li Ruoxi, Yun Zhu and Murong Xiaoxiao and said with a smile: "Mei Liu, when will you invite us to have a wedding drink? I see these three The girls are all very handsome, I wonder which one is your daughter-in-law, or all three?"
Wang Ma took over and said, "The three girls are as beautiful as flowers and have big butts. I think we should just marry them all back home. Dachun has good genes. Maybe there will be a few Wang Xiaochuns this time next year." "
The girls were very embarrassed, and couldn't help but blush, "Well... I'm full, so I went to the house first." After saying that, they ran away, even Yun Zhu ran away.
Wang Dachun chuckled, "Aunt Niu, Mom Wang, you see you have scared away the girls. I'll go and have a look." He took two steps and turned back, bringing a plate of salt and pepper shrimp and golden chicken. "They must not have eaten enough. I'll go take a look."
Liu Juan shouted at Wang Dachun's back: "It's okay, I'll make dumplings for them later."
"Hey! You know how to love your wife!"
Everyone burst into laughter again.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, New Year's greetings came, most of them were children. This is a big custom in rural areas. Liu Juan and Wang Jianguo distributed the prepared candies to them. The children left happily and continued. Run to the next house.
Wang Dachun looked at those children and thought of his own childhood. During the Chinese New Year when he was a child, he would carry his younger sister with him and go around to pay New Year greetings and get some peanut candies and so on. I remember that one year during the New Year greetings, the brother and sister fell into a snow nest and had to crawl for a long time before they could crawl out. When I came up, although I was poor at that time, I was very happy.
Although he has become a billionaire now, he still has various worries. For example, his biological mother is still suffering in a foreign country...
Li Ruoxi came to the balcony and hugged Wang Dachun's waist from behind, "Dachun, what are you thinking about? You are so involved."
Wang Dachun put his arms around Li Ruoxi's waist and said, "It's okay, I'm just thinking about what happened when I was a child."
Li Ruoxi looked at Wang Dachun lovingly, "Dachun, thank you for letting me have a happy New Year."
Wang Dachun said softly: "If you like it, you can stay at my house every year."
Li Ruoxi threw herself into Wang Dachun's arms with a cry. This sentence was equivalent to giving her a solemn promise.
Their eyes immediately met and they kissed deeply.
"Squeak!"
At this moment, Luobotou suddenly covered Wang Dachun's face and made a shy gesture not far away, which immediately attracted both Yun Zhu and Murong Xiaoxiao. Yun Zhu asked Murong Xiaoxiao curiously, "What are my brother and Sister Ruoxi doing? Why are they talking to each other?"
Murong Xiaoxiao looked at Yun Zhu as if he were an alien, "No way, you don't even know how to kiss, so you can't be an alien!"
Yun Zhu still looked puzzled, "But why are they kissing? Is this fun?"
"Just ask Wang Dachun if it's fun or not." Murong Xiaoxiao said and ran away with a blushing face.
"They've all been seen, it's all your fault." Realizing that she was being peeped by others, Li Ruoxi quickly pushed Wang Dachun away and ran away with a blushing face.
Wang Dachun touched his mouth and said, "I saw it when I saw it. Why are you making such a fuss?"
In the following time, several people started playing cards, and whoever lost got a beard. Several women teamed up to punish Wang Dachun. As a result, his mouth and chin were covered with beards, like Santa Claus.
Wang Dachun was very happy. He hadn't been so relaxed for a long time. He played until midnight. His mother brought the steaming dumplings. The firecrackers outside started ringing one after another. Tonight's New Year's Eve was over.
The next morning, the first day of the Lunar New Year, Wang Dachun got up early and took turns with his sister Wang Zihan in the village, paying New Year greetings to the elders in the village. Each person stuffed a red envelope. Wang Zihan said, "I wish you a happy New Year." , the elders suddenly felt that their face was very bright. Now that Wang Dachun's status was different, there were not many elders who could let him pay New Year's greetings.
It's the turn of the old village chief's house. The old village chief was so happy that he grinned from ear to ear, "Dachun, I'm very happy that you can still think of wishing me a happy new year. Come on, come on, smoke a bear."
Wang Dachun grinned. He didn't know what Xiong Er was at first, but it turned out to be a red panda cigarette.
At this moment, Bai Xue sent a message: Happy New Year, I have almost everything you asked for, except for one thing, but I got a message that you can come to Beijing to have a look.
Wang Dachun knew that his New Year was over.
