"Yang Ruoqing, stop right here!"

An angry shout came from behind, which stunned Yang Ruoqing and Cao Bamei.

The two turned around and saw Chen Jinhong running over from behind in a rage, as if he was launching an attack to accuse them.

"Are you yelling at me?" Yang Ruoqing stood calmly and pointed to her nose and asked Chen Jinhong.

Chen Jinhong had arrived in front of Yang Ruoqing, with her hands on her hips and her eyes widened.

"Every kid in the front yard and backyard has candied haws, but why doesn't my Hong'er family have one?" Chen Jinhong asked straight to the point.

"Let me ask you what Yang Ruoqing means? If you want to give it, give it all, or if you don't give it, give it all."

"Why do you want to leave us alone? In your eyes, are we not the descendants of the old Yang family?"

"You must give me an explanation for this matter. Otherwise, if you go to grandpa and grandma, I will explain it to you!"

Chen Jinhong chirped, looking unreasonable and unforgiving.

Cao Bamei frowned and was about to speak out when Yang Ruoqing raised her hand to stop Cao Bamei.

Then, she took a step forward and looked at Chen Jinhong.

"Don't the old Yang family take enough care of your mistress? How dare you complain?"

"It's just a piece of candied haws, something worth two cents. Will I, Yang Ruoqing, deliberately deduct money from your mistress?" Yang Ruoqing asked.

Chen Jinhong said: "Then why are there children in the front and back yards, but not my Hong'er?"

Yang Ruoqing said: "Hong'er is only over five months old, can he eat that thing?"

Chen Jinhong said: "Even if you can't eat that stuff, you can still lick the sweetness a few times! It's our business whether you can eat it or not. It's your fault whether you give it to me or not. Sister-in-law, I'm not saying that.

Something wrong?"

Cao Bamei was startled.

Yang Ruoqing once again grabbed the spotlight: "There is nothing wrong with what you said."

"But, can Hong'er lick it? His stomach has always been bad, and the doctor has repeatedly warned him not to touch it with anything, especially hawthorn and sweet things!"

"When Hong'er's stomach is healed, I, Yang Ruoqing, can afford a dozen of them, let alone one candied haws of sugar haws!" Yang Ruoqing said.

Chen Jinhong frowned, his eyes darting around, as if he was looking for words.

At this time, Cao Bamei couldn't help but speak out: "Hong'er obviously doesn't want to eat these things, but you still want them. I'm afraid you are greedy, right?"

"For a piece of candied haws, I came here to confront Qing'er. Do you think that's okay?"

Chen Jinhong gritted her teeth: "I just want to say that a bowl of water must be served evenly. No matter who eats this candied haws, we must give it to our mistress."

Hearing this, Yang Ruoqing really laughed.

"The candied haws on a stick is mine. I give it to you out of affection. If I don't give it to you, it's my duty."

"The bowl is in my hand, whether it is flat or uneven, I have the final say!"

"You really pushed me into a hurry. You can't even hope for a drop of water in the future!"

After saying these words, Yang Ruoqing ignored Chen Jinhong, turned around and said to Cao Bamei: "I'm going back first. You can take Xiuxiu back to the house. There are many crazy dogs outside. Don't get bitten like me!"

Yang Ruoqing walked forward, and Cao Bamei took Xiuxiu back to the house and closed the door.

Chen Jinhong was left standing alone in the main room, so angry that the branches were trembling and the wind was messy.

"Humph, they all ganged up to bully me, we'll see!"

As soon as she turned around, Chen Jinhong also returned to her house angrily.

Soon, it’s New Year’s Eve.

Yang Ruoqing woke up early in the morning, originally thinking that she could finally get up with Luo Fengtang today.

Unexpectedly, he got up earlier than her.

"Aren't you sleepy? Aren't you tired?" Yang Ruoqing couldn't help but ask him while eating breakfast.

Last night, he was like the old ox, plowing in her fertile land for a long time.

"Tangyazi, are you really not tired? I'm really curious!"

Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one else in the dining hall, just the two of them, Yang Ruoqing asked in a low voice again.

Luo Fengtang naturally knew what she was asking, and smiled.

"Don't worry, my cow will never get tired of plowing," he said.

"Oops, I'm talking about gangsters again, it's disgusting..." Yang Ruoqing shrank her neck, raised her chopsticks and pretended to immerse herself in eating porridge.

Luo Fengtang chuckled: "I don't know if it was that girl last night who said she liked me. Why, now she's turned her back on her?"

Yang Ruoqing's face turned even redder, "Let's stop talking about this topic. Let's eat and eat. We will go to the mountains to burn incense in the morning!"

Luo Fengtang let out a cheerful laugh, and the couple continued eating.

It’s New Year’s Eve, and today’s itinerary is as follows:

In the morning, everyone takes joss paper, firecrackers, offerings, etc., and goes to the mountains behind the village to pay homage to their ancestors.

After coming home at noon, I can eat two boiled eggs or tea eggs to satisfy my hunger.

Then in the afternoon, the men went to the Tutu Temple in the south of the village to burn incense and set off firecrackers, while the women began to cook the New Year's Eve dinner.

…

After breakfast, everyone got into action.

After handing Baby Luo to Xiao Yaxue, Yang Ruoqing went to the back mountain with Luo Fengtang and Blacksmith Luo to burn incense.

After returning at noon, Yang Ruoqing and Tuoba Xian first gave Baby Luo a bath and put on new clothes, a new hat, and new shoes and socks for the New Year.

"Mom, I'll leave the baby to you first. I'll go to the yard next door to help cook the New Year's Eve dinner. You guys can come over later!"

Yang Ruoqing said to Tuoba Xian.

This year, the two families have discussed that the New Year's Eve dinner will be held at Yang Huazhong's house.

Breakfast on the first day of the new year was eaten at Lao Luo's house, and everyone celebrated the new year together.

"Okay, you go and do your work, I'll play with the baby." Tuoba Xian said.

When Yang Ruoqing came over, she happened to catch Sun and the others eating eggs.

"Qing'er, come and eat eggs," Mrs. Sun greeted, handing over an egg.

While Yang Ruoqing was eating, Mrs. Sun came around from behind with an extra handful of straw in her hand.

He made a gesture and gently wiped Yang Ruoqing's mouth a few times, and muttered: "Children's words are unbridled, good luck will come."

Yang Ruoqing couldn't laugh or cry.

"I am already the mother of children, but I am still a childish child!" she said.

Sun said: "In my mother's eyes, you will still be a child when you are a hundred years old!"

Yang Ruoqing smiled.

Mrs. Sun peeled another egg and stuffed it to Yang Ruoqing: "New Year's Eve dinner is still two hours away. Come on, eat some more eggs to fill your stomach."

Yang Ruoqing shook her head, "Mom, I really can't eat anymore."

Sun said: "You loved eating these boiled eggs the most when you were a child. During the Chinese New Year, there were only one child at home. You were very happy."

Hearing Sun's words, Yang Ruoqing also remembered the thirty-year anniversary of the first year of separation.

Yang Huazhong had just been released from prison, and all the money his family had saved with great difficulty was added to it. During the Chinese New Year, Aunt Guihua and the others had scraped together all the things.

Mrs. Sun still insisted on boiling eggs for the three siblings, the last three eggs.

What is mother?

Mom is the one who wants to feed you even though she is hungry.

Things are getting better now...

"Okay, I'll eat it again." Yang Ruoqing peeled another egg and ate it.
