This year Li Mo will not be able to return home for the New Year. There is no quota for Lihua Village to return to the city to visit relatives this year.

Li Mo followed Grandma Wang to prepare for the New Year. Li Mo prepared melon seeds for two catties and eight cents, sugar for two catties for one dollar, two firecrackers for nine cents, four catties of loose wine, two for four cents, and one cigarette, one for four.

It took a total of six and six cents, and Wang Ailan said distressedly: "Momo, you will spend the New Year at my house this year, what else do you buy for the New Year?"

Li Mo didn't want to go to Wang Ailan's for the New Year. Wang Ailan repeatedly persuaded her to finally agree.

You can't empty your hands for a few years, even if some aunts don't say anything, they have some thoughts in their minds.

"There are quite a lot of children coming to pay a New Year's Eve during the New Year, so I will buy some to go back."

When Wang Ailan saw Li Mo say this, she didn't say anything. It's much better than before, now I'm like a countryman.

When Li Mo first came, his hands were big and powerful. If they didn't have a bad heart, the child would have to be scolded to take everything away.

After buying the Chinese New Year goods, Li Mo didn't have to do anything else at home, so Grandma Wang forbade her to cook. Li Mo has been staying at Liu's family for dinner since he was a child.

One day before the little girl, Li Mo brought four catties of loose wine, a cigarette and one catty of sugar as a New Year gift for grandpa and grandma.

The custom here is that the juniors have to give gifts to the elders four times a year, and Li Mo gave them according to the village custom. Since this year is the first year, it should be thicker.

After giving the gift, Grandma Wang stayed with Li Mo for dinner, Li Mo was also welcome. At the dinner table, Grandma Wang told Li Mo not to open fire at home, and the Liu family were also persuading her.

Li Mo thought for a while and agreed. In the evening, he brought two catties of rice and ten catties of sweet potatoes as rations. Chinese cabbage also moved in with someone.

From then on, Li Mo started the day when he went back to sleep at Liu's house at night. Occasionally, I took a few children from Liu's family to the house to add a meal to make something delicious.

Twenty-eight people paste up the wall at home, and twenty-nine post Spring Festival couplets and New Year pictures to make dumplings.

Li Mo came to Liu's house early on the morning of the 31st of the new year after getting up. After a simple breakfast, the women in the family prepared the New Year's meal. Li Mo raised his sleeves and joined the battlefield.

Four items were prepared for the New Year's meal, the old hen stewed mushrooms, sauerkraut stewed white meat and blood sausage, braised carp in brown sauce, and stewed knuckles.

After the meal was served, firecrackers started to be lit outside the door, and the old Liu's family began to eat the New Year's meal amidst the sound of firecrackers.

After the New Year's dinner, the eldest mother told Brother Liu and his wife to take out frozen pears and frozen persimmons. Frozen pears taste cold and sweet in your mouth.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, everyone sat on the kang to guard the year, and there was nothing to play with. The adults talked and the children made noise.

Li Mo gave Chuanzi and Gougan the two firecrackers she bought to let them go out to play.

The eldest mother said: "I even gave them firecrackers to play with, but it's expensive, Momo, don't ruin it for them."

"Let them play, I bought it and found it was useless, so I brought it to them."

Grandma Wang ruthlessly exposed her and said: "You don't know it's useless. You bought these two monkeys on purpose. I told you not to buy it. It cost a dollar. I feel so sorry. Up."

Li Mo smiled and said: "It's not that my brothers have been obedient this year. They have helped me a lot. I am rewarding them."

"Pull it down, it's true to eat a lot of your eggs. You think I don't know, you always take them to boil eggs to eat."

"Milk, aren't you afraid that the eggs will go bad? They help me eat some."

"Don't be poor, I don't care about your brothers and sisters. If they eat you up, you will be hungry."

Both aunts are very grateful to Li Mo. It is their son who has benefited. There is no reason not to be grateful.

The second aunt said: "Li Mo, you will stay here later, and don't go back to sleep in the same room with Xinghua at night." Li Mo obediently agreed.

At twelve o'clock, many people began to set off firecrackers, and the old Liu's family also set off a set of firecrackers.

After setting off the firecrackers, Wang Ailan began to give out red envelopes to her grandchildren, each child has one. The red envelopes are not big or small, 50 cents per person.

There is Zhang Da Tuanjie in Li Mo's red envelope, she thought she had taken it wrong.

When Wang Ailan arrived, he said, "This is your first year. Just like your sister-in-law, you will get ten yuan per person. Let's collect everything. There won't be so much in the future."

Hearing this, Li Mo and his sister-in-law were tacitly stuffing the red envelope into their pockets.

After sending out the red envelopes, everyone went to wash and prepare for bed. Li Mo and Lihua washed their feet with a basin of water and then went to sleep on the kang.

On the morning of the New Year's Day, he ate sticky bean buns with rice porridge. After the meal, Li Mo gave two children a small red packet each. Shuanzi and Gougan happily took the firecrackers to the supply and marketing agency.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Li Mo went back and opened the door, and the children in the village would pay New Year greetings one by one. When Li Mo got home, he put the peanut seeds and sugar out on a plate, waiting for the children to come.

It didn't take long for children from the village to come. Everyone gave her two candies and a handful of peanuts after Li Mo gave her a New Year greeting.

The children kept going all morning, and the embolus and the dog egg were the last to come. Both of them carried a cloth bag, which contained snacks obtained from other people's New Year greetings.

"Sister Li Mo, we are here."

"Come in, why is it so late?"

The two brothers often come here and are very familiar with each other. They are afraid of getting on the kang when they take off their shoes.

"We've already visited the whole village and come to you last. You help us put the snacks in the bag, and we will eat next time."

"Take it back, I still have it."

"No, take it back, my mother must put it away. Sister Li Mo, please help us put it away."

"Put your things in the kang cabinet yourself. There is a small lock there. You take a key and lock it."

"That's good, no one will take it away, so we have the key."

"Wow, Sister Li Mo, do you have dried sweet potatoes? My grandma thinks it was a waste of food and didn't make it."

"What you want to eat, take it in the kang cabinet, and everything you eat is inside."

The dog egg is very heart-warming, so he can hold it out with his hand? Shuan hurriedly stopped him. "Brother, let's eat in the afternoon. We'll have lunch later. Keep your belly."

The dog egg was a little greedy, but he held it back, and said to Chuanzi: "Then I will eat a lot in the afternoon."

"Okay, let's go back to dinner now."

When a married girl returned to her natal family in the second grade, a major event happened in the village.

Meng Fang and Liu Qiang have dealt with each other, and this year is also a year spent at Liu Qiang's house. Everyone in the village knows this, the Liu family has said that they will get married after the Chinese New Year.

When Taohua returned to her family in the second grade, the aunt was so happy, she held her hand and said non-stop. Although he is in the village, he belongs to someone else's family after all.

On the fifth day of the fifth year, someone from Taohua's family came to give good news. The new grandparents and uncles were very excited, busy preparing things.

Li Mo also went to see Peach Blossom, and gave three taels of brown sugar, two taels of red dates as gifts, and 20 eggs.

"Momo, you are here, come sit down."

"Sister Taohua, congratulations on your pregnancy."

"I didn't expect to be pregnant so soon, I just don't know if it is a boy or a girl."

"Aren't boys and girls all good? I will give birth to a few more in the future. Both boys and girls will do."

"I don't dislike girls, but I'm afraid my in-laws will dislike girls."

"Probably not, your mother-in-law treats Chun'er Xia'er and the others very well."

"Yes, I feel much better when I say that."

"Don't think about it, you eat more delicious supplements."

"My mother-in-law is very kind to me, and I have an egg for me to eat every day. You said before that I would go to town on the seventh day of the day to play, and I can't go anymore."

"We will bring you back what we want to buy."

"I don't have anything to buy, I just want to play."

"Let's go again after the baby is born."

"Momo, why would you agree to go play with the educated youth in the village?"

"Isn't there a girl from the village, Xinghua is there too. After all, it will take a long time to get along, and it will be good to be good."

Twenty-nine Li Mo had been to the cowshed, and there were a few more reed mats in the cowshed. Although the situation is not good, these people still actively and enthusiastically celebrate the new year.

They don't have money and tickets, and they can't buy any good things, only the sweet potatoes from the village and the game they poached.

Li Mo grabbed a bit of each of the melon seeds, peanuts and other snacks at home, and sent them away. Not too many were enough for each of them to eat.

On the night of the fifth day of the new year, Li Mo planned to go to the bullpen again to see how the group was doing.

Went to the cowshed and found that Ke Shufen had a cold, and seeing Li Mo coming, everyone invited her into the room. Li Mo didn't bring anything this time, just came to see them.

Ke Shufen saw Li Mo come empty-handed today, so she asked: "You educated youth, why are you here, what's the matter?"

This kid usually comes here to give things away secretly. Could it be that something happened today.

"It's okay, I just came to see you. Comrade Ke, you have a cold?"

"It's okay, Lao Mo gave a few shots, and it will be fine in two days."

"You should keep the fire in your sleep at night, it may be a lot warmer."

"We know that we have had a good time recently. Li Zhiqing, don't worry about our old bones. Don't give us any more food. This mountain of good things won't starve us to death."

"Then you guys, be careful, I have nothing to do today, I will go back first."
