Children and children, don’t be greedy, after Laba is the new year.
You drink Laba porridge for a few days, and it will be twenty-three.
Twenty-three, sticky melons; twenty-four, offering sacrifices to the Kitchen God; twenty-five, making tofu; twenty-six, stewing big meat; twenty-seven, killing roosters; twenty-eight, decals; twenty-nine, going to fight wine ;Thirty nights to play for one night;
After the 23rd day of the lunar calendar, the atmosphere of the New Year in the village is particularly strong, and the whole village exudes a sense of joy. The village is full of fragrance from morning to night, and the snacks in the children's pockets are not broken.
The pigs bought by Mrs. Ye on the way are also planned to be slaughtered in advance around the 24th of the lunar calendar. It is really impossible to get an appointment with a pig butcher. In recent days, the pig butchers in the neighborhood go to and from several villages and kill several pigs every day.
The Chinese New Year is approaching, and the pigs that have been raised for a year are basically ready to be slaughtered. It happens that they can be sold for money and can be eaten. The whole family will have a good year.
And Ye Yaodong also automatically got up to help at two o'clock in the morning. Killing a pig is not a trivial matter. It happens that he can buy some meat by the way. The pigs he raises are of course better than other people's.
Lin Xiuqing woke up when she heard him getting up, "I want to go to the old house to see, can you help me?"
"Well, let's go over and have a look, and buy some meat by the way. It's almost Chinese New Year, and then our family will eat something good."
"Then you should also buy more fatty meat. Let's boil some lard and eat it during the Chinese New Year. It's not good to eat rapeseed oil every day. Meat oil is more fragrant. By the way, get some onion oil and put it in the noodles when cooking." Spoons are more fragrant."
"Okay, then buy a ten catty one, and cook a little longer."
"Alright, the key is in the corner of the closet. You can open the drawer to get the money yourself."
After so long, he has performed well. Lin Xiuqing still has some basic trust in him, so he directly let him take the money himself.
"Well, if you continue to sleep for a while, I'll buy pork heart, liver, and stomach by the way. After eating for two days, the whole family can make up for it."
"You can see that it's done."
Ye Yaodong is very satisfied. After his nurturing, Ah Qing is not so picky now, and is willing to spend some money to eat and drink better.
After he opened the drawer and took the money, he locked it as usual, handed her the key to keep it away, and then walked out lightly, closing the door gently.
Before reaching the gate of the courtyard, the dog crawled out of the kennel, watched it vigilantly, and shrank back.
Ye Yaodong said with satisfaction: "Today, I bought a few more bones by the way. After cooking the big bone soup, I will reward you in the evening. I have worked hard for you, and I will also give you supplements."
"Wow~"
After the **** dog barked in a low voice, it lay back down again.
Ye Yaodong closed the courtyard door after he went out, and told the **** dog, "Look carefully, the courtyard door is unlocked, don't let strangers run in."
Thieves generally don’t dare to push the door openly, and he can rest assured that there are a few dogs around.
But Lin Xiu was awake, but she couldn't fall asleep. She also had the habit of getting up at night to check on the children and cover them with quilts. Just as Ye Yaodong got up and went out, she also got up and put on her coat and went into her son's room.
When the result came out, I saw the courtyard door was blown open by the wind through the window, so I went out and planned to lock the courtyard door.
But she didn't expect that when the door was closed, she looked up and found a white light on the sea, which shocked her a lot.
Under the moonlight, the white light seemed to be a ghost floating on the sea. Against the background of the night, it looked extraordinarily scary, and she screamed.
Ye Yaodong didn't go far at this time, he stopped when he heard a sound that seemed to be coming from the door of his house, and quickly took a flashlight to shine it on, but he didn't see anything.
Feeling puzzled, he walked back, intending to see what happened.
Lin Xiuqing took a look, let out a cry, and quickly closed her eyes in fright, her heart was beating wildly, and the courtyard door was also slammed shut by her.
Ye Yaodong was sure that the noise was from his own house, and after approaching, he called softly, "Ah Qing?"
"ah?"
She was closing her eyes, grabbing the handle of the courtyard door, standing behind the courtyard door to calm down, and didn't immediately run into the house. After hearing Ye Yaodong's voice, her heart immediately settled down.
"A Dong?" She opened the courtyard door again as she spoke, "You haven't left yet?"
"I just walked for a short distance, and when I heard a noise here, I turned around and took a look. What's wrong? I heard you call just now?"
While he was asking questions, he turned off the switch of the flashlight to avoid wasting electricity.
Lin Xiuqing kept her eyes on him and didn't dare to meow towards the sea. After hearing his question, she stepped forward and grabbed the cotton-padded jacket in front of him, buried her head in his neck, and whispered .
"When you just came out, didn't you see anything on the sea?"
"What's the matter?" Ye Yaodong asked casually in confusion, then turned his head and glanced at the sea, his pupils constricted instantly, and he was also taken aback.
"Grass! What's that?"
He didn't have it when he just opened the door and came out, otherwise he would definitely jump up.
Lin Xiuqing closed her eyes tightly, and was still clutching the padded jacket on his chest, not daring to glance at him, "I don't know what it is, I was shocked when I came out and closed the door just now, did you just come out? Didn't see it?"
"No, not just now."
As he spoke, he turned on the flashlight and took a photo in the distance. The photo disappeared in an instant, and it was gone.
"It's too scary, you better not go out, go back to the house."
With his wife in front of him, holding her in his arms, the two of them are next to each other. He's actually not that afraid, isn't it because he hasn't been a ghost before? When I saw it just now, I was suddenly shocked.
At this moment, he used the flashlight to switch on and off frequently, and the switch illuminated it. When he looked carefully, he didn't feel so scary.
Although it does look like a ghost when it is not illuminated, it should not be so. People in the future will say that these are natural phenomena, such as how the light shines.
The flashlight was shining on it just now, and it disappeared in an instant. What should be the reaction of that light?
Even though he couldn't shoot S, Ye Yaodong comforted himself a bit, and he became more courageous, and said confidently.
"What are you afraid of? It must be because of the moonlight. The moonlight will reflect on the sea. There is nothing to be afraid of. Go into the house and go to sleep. I will go and have a look."
Lin Xiuqing held his hand tightly, "Are you still going to see it? Then I will accompany you."
Ye Yaodong saw that she was also wearing a padded jacket. Anyway, the child slept soundly at night, so he locked the courtyard door and went to see it for a while.
"Then lock the courtyard door from the outside."
She wondered for a moment, why don't she just go to the beach to have a look? Do you want to lock the door?
However, since he said to lock it, let's lock it, it doesn't matter.
She didn’t know, when he said to go and see, he meant to go to the old house to see the slaughter of pigs, not to go to the beach to see the ‘ghost’...
Ye Yaodong didn't know that the two understood differently.
It wasn't until she held Ye Yaodong's arm and was about to walk straight to the beach that Ye Yaodong realized, "What are you doing? Where are you going?"
"Aren't you going to have a look? Let's go?"
"ah?"
Ye Yaodong bit the bullet and followed her forward, "What I said was to go to the old house to see the slaughter of pigs. What's so interesting about this ghost?"
"Didn't you say it was because of the moonlight?"
"I heard it's because of the light, who knows if it's true? Then...it depends, so let's take a closer look, anyway, I'm full of yang..." He half-jokingly said.
"The more I talk about it, the more frightening it becomes. I just mentioned the issue of lighting. What are you talking about now? Don't look at it, don't look at it, and go back quickly. I thought you were talking about going to the beach."
"It's been a little less than a half, and you want to go back? It doesn't look like a ghost, so let's take a look. When you come out of the door tomorrow, you can brag to the neighbors and sisters-in-law."
He was really aroused, a little curious.
Lin Xiuqing smiled and slapped him, her nervous mood relaxed a bit, "Nonsense, do I seem to be bragging?"
"The same goes for gossip, almost the same meaning."
"The meaning is much worse..."
The couple talked and laughed and approached slowly. When they approached, they found that it was really a ray of light. It was the moonlight shining on the sea surface, reflected by the water surface, as if there was a ghost floating on the sea surface.
It is particularly scary when viewed from a distance, but it is obviously not the case when viewed up close. It can be seen at a glance that it is a beam of light.
"It's light!"
"Let me just say, it's not a ghost, it's light, you still don't believe it."
Ye Yaodong also heaved a sigh of relief, he is also a person who often walks at night, if he sees such a thing every other day, he will think about it, now that he has figured it out, he will feel more at ease, and he will not have to worry about ghosts in the future. I thought about that direction.
"It looks like light from a distance. You were taken aback just now. How could I believe it was light? I thought you were arguing there."
"Cut, listen to me more in the future, it will give you a lot of insight."
Lin Xiuqing rolled her eyes at him, and is she proud?
"Okay, it will be fine once you know it's a light, go back quickly."
"Oh wait..."
He heard the sound of splashes and waves under the water surface, crackling and crackling, obviously there were fish.
"Ah? What are you doing?" Seeing him looking seriously at the sea surface and using a flashlight to shine around, she also looked suspiciously, "Are there any fish?"
"It should be, I heard the sound of splashing water."
Lin Xiuqing stared intently at the surface of the sea, and pricked up her ears to listen carefully, but it seemed that she only heard the sound of wind and waves, and there were only waves on the sea surface, and there were no fish to see.
"Did you hear it wrong? Dazed? I only hear the sound of the waves."
"Your ears don't work."
"Your aura is useless. Now that the tide is high, even if there are fish, you can't see them under the water. If you have good ears, it's useless to hear them."
"That's right, I guess it's just some anchovies and anchovies. I sold half a tank of the fish delicacy I made last year, and there are still a lot of them."
