Chapter 2408 Thanksgiving Ceremony

Returning to Jiudao, Lan San parked the helicopter on the village road not far from Lejia House. There was a floor in front of the village office building, but because there were buildings on all sides, the wind returned in winter. It’s so powerful that it’s not very convenient for helicopters to take off and land.

There is not much work in the countryside in winter. There are basically no tractors and three-wheeled vehicles coming and going, and it is not a problem for a helicopter to park on the village road.

Le’s father Zhou Qiufeng went to collect firewood, Li Zhao was teaching his junior brother, and Yi Laoyan went downstairs to help move things.

Le’s father Zhou Qiufeng came back from collecting firewood. When he saw the iron bird, he knew that his little cotton-padded jacket was back. He stacked the firewood in the backyard. When he got home, he found that the rice was ready and the fish was stewed in the pot. I was so happy that I was floating when I walked.

Luo Ban knew that Xiao Le was coming during class. He originally went back to the dormitory building after the first class, but found that the helicopter left soon, so he did not go back. He did not go back until school was over at noon. Home.

He ran home and heard that Xiao Le had given him two boxes. He didn’t even bother to drink. He looked quickly and opened the lighter box first. He saw rolls of paper. Roll, if it catches the east wind, an old face with nasolabial wrinkles will instantly bloom with spring warmth. " Well!" Roban nodded heavily, even if it was just one word, it was full of pride and joy.

He didn’t even bother to eat. He took the paper tube with the math note on it, untied the tie, and eagerly looked at the question types and studied the difficulty level.

Mrs. Luo also knew the importance of it and did not rush her. It was not until her husband finished reading a scroll that she went to reheat the dishes, urged her husband to eat, and then ignored him. .

Luo Ban briefly read a few test papers, rolled them up again, took the box back to the room and hid it, and then quietly ran to the principal after class in the afternoon.

The two people who had met secretly arrested the vice principal at night. The three of them went to the office in the middle of the night to work overtime to copy the test papers. They all moved back to Luo Ban's house and hid them tightly without revealing anything.

The new test question set produced by Xiaole must be kept tightly until she comes back after the New Year, and then use it for the students who are taking the exam in the third year of high school.

Of course, Le Xiao’s classmate didn’t know that Luo Ban and the principal would act like thieves in the middle of the night in order to cover up the problem. Her parents did not allow her to work, so she had to climb to the second floor to draw drawings.

Brother Zhou was digging the ground. He came home at noon and saw the helicopter parked on the road. He also knew that Xiao Lele was back, so he did not go to visit. He wanted to wait until the evening to go. In the afternoon, his brother-in-law told him that he would go to Lele tomorrow. The family helped kill pigs, and he didn't visit Le's house at night.

Le’s dad called the two brothers. On the 26th, Liu Lu and Chen DaFace and others had breakfast, and then went to Lejia with their mothers-in-law. All the elderly people from each family were also present.

Boss Wu and his family arrived a little later, before eight o'clock. Village Chief Zhou went to the village committee to order a meal, and also went to Lejia to help kill pigs.

Le’s father, Zhou Qiufeng, originally left two sheep, one male and one female. The ewe gave birth to three babies. A family in the village across the street wanted to raise sheep, and the two large sheep raised by Le’s family were The three lambs were uniformly raised as breeding sheep.

The sheep were sold. Le’s father knew that his piglets would be back on New Year’s Day, so he ordered the suckling pigs in advance, went to bring them back and slaughtered them together in the morning.

A total of four pigs were slaughtered, a large fat pig weighing more than 300 kilograms, a medium pig weighing more than 200 kilograms, and two two-month-old suckling piglets.

The big pigs are cut up and put into fresh-keeping boxes into categories and stored in the refrigerator, so that they can be eaten fresh at any time. The small suckling pigs are pickled after being packed and roasted in the afternoon.

Because there were so many people, Zhang Laosan and several other elderly people dug up konjac and ground it to make konjac tofu.

The women first helped to kill a dozen chickens and ducks, processed them and marinated them in the seasoning prepared by Xiao Lele. After the pigs were killed, they helped to scald and shave them and separate the internal organs. Come out, first process the pig's small intestine, clean it and fill it with blood sausage.

Classmate Le only mixed the ingredients, and she did not need to do other tasks. When walking around, she found that Grandma Zhou never dared to look at her. She was obviously weird, so she pretended not to notice.

After the middle-aged men and women had processed the pork and cleaned the floor, they processed the pig head, stewed the pig head meat, minced meat stuffing to make sausages, and made pork belly.

That day is the 26th, Jiudaowu Day.

Aunt Pa went to catch a show and listened to a lot of gossip. She returned to the village from the street, threw her things at home, and went to Lejia. By then, she had nothing to help with, and she was with the elderly. Let’s sit in the hall and chat together.

After chatting for a while, she gossiped mysteriously: "Today a neighbor of Li Xiaoyan's family came to the market. I heard that Mrs. Meng fell down a few days ago and couldn't get out of bed. She was also coughing up blood. .

I also heard that Grandma Li Xiaoyan didn’t take care of Mrs. Meng at all after she couldn’t work. With Mrs. Meng’s failure, it’s hard to say whether she can survive this month.”

Grandma Zhou Man, Grandma Zhang and others were stunned. Is Sister Meng dying?

Grandma Zhou Man sighed: "Well, she probably committed some sin in her previous life and owed it to the Li family. She is here to repay that family's debt in this life."

"No, I have worked hard for the Li family for most of my life, and I still have to take care of him when he is about to die. I really don't know how many lifetimes of debt I owe."

Grandma Zhang San, Liu Lu's mother, also feels sad. They agree, they think that Mrs. Meng may owe the Li family eight lifetimes of blood debt, otherwiseIt won't be so unlucky.

When Grandma Zhou heard that Meng’s wife might be dying, her heart skipped a beat. Meng’s sister-in-law and the Li family’s grandparents had offended Lele, so the Li family’s grandparents and grandchildren became the target of thousands of people, and Meng’s wife had no way to seek medical treatment when she was sick. , the three of them had no luck again.

Zhou Chunmei also... is not liked by Lele. Since leaving the Zhou family, Zhou Chunmei has not had good luck.

Zhang Jing, Wu Lingling and her mother-in-law provoked Lele and ended up like a bereaved dog. The Huang family offended Lele to death, and they ended up dead and sick. The century-old family fell down at the behest .

There are also Chen Wu and Zhang who went to jail when they were old. Even if they came back in the future, their reputations would be ruined.

Looking at the details, no one who is against Lele or has a grudge against Lele will have a good ending.

Zhou Chunmei also offended Lele. If she helped Zhou Chunmei and angered Lele, would she also... not end well?

Grandma Zhou was having random thoughts in her mind, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on her back. She didn’t dare to think about it anymore.

Grandma Zhou Man said a few words to the others, and then they got over it. They stopped talking endlessly about the Li family’s ancestors and grandchildren, and talked about marriage.

Old Mrs. Wu happily mentioned: "The last time I went to Shangzhuang to go shopping, I saw Xiao Zhang, who was wearing sackcloth and mourning for Lele's aunt, and a woman with short ear-length hair. In the last episode, was Xiao Zhang trying to be a friend?"

"That's the case," Zhang San's grandma admitted generously: "Lele said that Zhang Ke himself is not a bad conscience. He didn’t do anything bad, and he sincerely apologized and admitted his mistake. Lele also forgave Zhang Ke.

The Zhang family was not a thing, and they also went to eat the free royal food. Several elders of the Zhang family We can’t just let Zhang Ke go on alone and propose a marriage to Zhang Luo. If there are no accidents, we should be able to settle it before the year.”

Liu Luma and Zhou Man’s grandma also chimed in. Zhang Ke's partner looked like someone who lived a good life. Mrs. Wu knew that Grandma Zhou Man and others were also insiders. She smiled and congratulated Grandma Zhang San: "Your nephew will settle down years ago, and you will be the aunt." Let’s have a wedding drink.”

Grandma Zhang San happily accepted the congratulations. If Zhang Ke has a mother-in-law, the elderly Zhang family will no longer have to worry about Zhang Ke, which will save them a lot of worry.

The old people chatted about everything, their parents were short-lived, and the time passed in idleness.

At noon, five tables were seated.

The meat from home-raised pigs is delicious, and the traditional braised pig head meat is even more fragrant.

There is no farm work in winter, and there is no urgent work in Boss Wu’s workshop. Both men and women drink, making it very lively.

Classmates Le, please leave first after eating enough.Go to the market, take out the marinated suckling pig, drain the juice, apply seasoning and honey, and roast it on the stove.

The people who ate pig head meat at Lejia stayed at Lejia until two o'clock in the afternoon.

The Roca opposes gambling, so the people who play in the Roca do not play cards or mahjong. They set up a table, put on their covers, sit around the kotatsu, crack melon seeds, and eat fruits. Chatting, the atmosphere is very good.

At around four o’clock, the first roasted suckling pig was taken off the shelf.

The suckling pig is roasted brightly, with golden skin, fragrant on the outside and crispy on the inside.

The men, women and children, who were so greedy after smelling the aroma, swallowed so much saliva, when the little boy brought the cut and plated barbecue, no one was polite and started chopping them up.

A roast suckling pig was eaten up.

Everyone who had satiated their appetites felt quite embarrassed. The barbecue was so fragrant that they actually finished a pig!

Everyone thought that they should go home and sit down again, maybe they would have to leave dinner.

When they wanted to leave, they saw the little boy carrying two boxes from the south room on the first floor and sitting at the table with the old ladies with a smile on his face.

The first box was opened, and there was a box of wide gold bracelets. The rings were one large and one small, forming a pair, one for men and one for women.

The second box contained silver bracelets with the same size rings.

Grandma Zhou Man and others were almost dazzled by the golden circle. They looked at the little boy in surprise, wondering what she wanted to do.

Le Yun took a pair of wide gold bracelets and gave them to Grandma Zhou Man: "Grandpa Man and Grandma Man have been protecting me since I was a child. They worry about me a lot. I don't have any good things. Please be filial." One bracelet for the two elders."

"Lele, you have paid us so much, we can't take this, you can keep it for yourself." Grandma Zhou Man was not willing to accept it.

Village Chief Zhou also disagreed: "Lele, your father and I are brothers who kowtow, and you are our niece and granddaughter. It is only natural for grandparents to take care of their grandchildren."

"I know that Grandpa Man is my father's biological brother. It is only natural for grandparents to take care of their grandchildren. Likewise, it is only natural for granddaughters to be filial to their grandparents. You protect me when I am young, and you don't need me to provide for you in old age. It is my intention to give you something as a filial piety.

I asked someone to order this. It is engraved with the words "kindness, sincerity, and longevity". You can keep it as a mascot. , set an example for future generations, so that they know what it means to be kind to the elderly, loyal and filial to children and grandchildren, unkind parents and grandparents, unfilial children and grandchildren, this is true from generation to generation, father is kind and son is filial, this is an eternal tradition."

HappyYun untied the thread that tied the bracelet and put the women's bracelet on Grandma Zhou Man's right wrist. The bracelet can be enlarged or reduced, and can be worn on any wrist thickness.

Grandma Zhou Man raised her hand, the bracelet was heavy.

"Okay, Lele said so, then just accept it." Village Chief Zhou was speechless. The little boy was making a fuss about filial piety. What else could he say?

Le Yun smiled and took the other one to Grandpa Zhou Man's left hand: "The bracelets are a pair. The men's bracelet is engraved with honeysuckle, which represents kindness and kindness, and the woman's bracelet is engraved with honeysuckle. Wearing a pomegranate means having many children and good fortune."

"It's so heavy? It must be half a catty, right?" Village Chief Zhou tried it, and the bracelet pressed against his hand.

"Grandpa Man can fly while carrying a bucket of water weighing 30 kilograms. You don't mind the weight, right?" Le Yun smiled and helped adjust the ring size of the bracelet.

"How can these be the same? The water is in a bucket, and this one is placed on the hand. It is so heavy. Wearing this every day will make your hands suffer." Village Chief Zhou shook it and lowered his hand to try. After trying it, he kept complaining that the pressure was too heavy.

Cheng Wu and Zhang Laosan rolled their eyes.

Le Yun put on the bracelets for Grandpa Zhou Man and Grandma Zhou Man, and took another pair to Grandma Zhou: "Grandpa Zhou and Grandma Zhou were worried about me when I was a child. Grandpa Zhou left early. Grandma and Grandpa Zhou are one and the same as husband and wife, and the same goes for paying filial piety to Grandma Zhou.”

The little boy’s smile was as bright as a flower, and Grandma Zhou’s face burned with embarrassment because she always wanted to have fun with Zhou Chunmei. Lele was still so kind-hearted and treated them so well, but she was never satisfied. She always thought about Zhou Chunmei's blood and wanted to help, but she never thought about whether Lele would be sad.

She was so embarrassed that she wanted to say "I'm sorry", but she opened her mouth but didn't say a word.

Grandma Zhou’s reaction was a little strange. Le Yun guessed that something must have happened that she didn’t know about. She put the bracelet into Grandma Zhou’s hand and picked up another pair to give to her aunt.

Village Chief Zhou thought that Grandma Zhou was too moved, so no one looked into Grandma Zhou’s reaction.

Aunt Pa did not refuse, and accepted it readily: "The old man said that every kindness he received from others would be repaid by a spring. Xiao Lele no longer repaid the favor with a spring, but a river. Anyway, No matter how much nonsense you say, you will still give me something in the end, and I will not be polite."

"It's fun for me to pick on my aunt and grandma, and I like the straight-tempered person who picks up my aunt and grandma the most." Le Yun bared her teeth: "If Grandpa Cheng Wu, Zhang San, and others push me around later and ask me to say a lot of good things before I stop, I won't visit them anymore, and I will ignore them for at least half a year."

"Lele, I didn't offend you, you didn't even go to my house?" Zhang Poluo yelled.

　“Look at the pictureThe reaction of Third Grandma and the others, they took care of me at first, but now if they don’t accept my gifts, I won’t visit Uncle Zhang’s house anymore. "

Le Yun took a pair of bracelets and handed them to Grandma Zhang San. She said nothing and grinned.

"Huh, you put ours first Army, how can we not accept it? "Grandma Zhang San snorted pretending to be angry, and smiled as she accepted the thank you gift from the little boy.

"Grandma Zhang San just accept it, because you old people like me worry about me, and my heart is full of worries. I am grateful. I will always remember this friendship. I am sending you a thank you gift to thank you for your kindness. You deserve it. If you accept it, I feel relieved and everyone is happy. ”

Grandma Zhang San was also happy. Le Yun suddenly felt in a good mood and took a pair of gold bracelets and gave them to Grandma Liu Qi.

Mother Liu Lu was not polite and smiled. After receiving the gift, he put it in his pocket first.

With their example, Cheng Wu and Cheng Liu also readily accepted the gold bracelet presented by the little boy.
