Chapter 764 Reunion
Da Tou is already fifteen years old, and will be sixteen after the Chinese New Year. Naturally, it’s time to get married, and even Da Ya is ready to get ready.
But I don’t know whether it’s because of Liu Lang’s influence or because I don’t feel panic now that I have money, but now the children are not in a hurry to talk about marriage.
Datou was particularly confident, "Uncle Six has not even said we are going to get married."
Da Ya became even more confident, "Eldest brother hasn't gotten married yet, how can I get married first?"
Some people even mentioned Man Bao.
To Liu Lang, Da Tou and Da Ya proclaimed their marriage. Lao Zhou Tou treated everyone politely. When he heard that the visitor wanted to talk about Man Bao, he immediately kicked him out, "My Man Bao is still young. You guys are talking about it."
What the hell is this idea?"
"I'm thirteen in real life, I'll be fourteen in the new year, not too young..."
"Fart, she has a young birthday, and she is only twelve years old when she celebrates the new year. Who can argue with you about how old she is?" And look at the families introduced, are they worthy of his daughter?
Lao Zhoutou was very rude and kicked the man away, and decided to refuse any matchmaker visits until the Chinese New Year.
Qian was so happy that someone was at the front, so he didn't say anything about it.
Lao Zhou counted the days on his fingers and estimated that Manbao and the others would be back soon. After dinner every day, he would wander around the entrance of the village, sit under the big banyan tree, brag with others, and look at the road leading into the village.
Little road.
So, as he vaguely watched the carriage enter the village, and when the first driver seemed to be lucky, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he stood up suddenly, startling the old man sitting next to him.
"Brother Jin, what are you doing?"
Lao Zhoutou squinted his eyes and looked ahead, asking: "Do you think that is a carriage?"
The old men sitting next to him squinted their eyes and looked forward. It was already dark, and they could only vaguely see the shadows of some trees.
After a long while, an old man said: "Really, this is the Bai family's carriage, who is back?"
"Master Bai is at home. He hasn't gone out, so who else can be there?"
"Oh, those are the young masters of the Bai family who are back. Old Zhoutou, your Man Bao is also back!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Manbao's cry could be heard from far away, "Dad——"
Lao Zhoutou happily slapped his thigh, so happy that his teeth almost fell out, "It's true, oh, Man Bao is back."
He looked around and found that none of his grandchildren were here, so he grabbed a child and said, "Quick, you have quick legs and feet. Go back and ask your aunts to knead and cook the noodles. Your aunt Man is back."
"
"What are you yelling at? It's Grandma Mangu, and this is your great-grandson." An old man next to him corrected Old Zhou, and waved to the child, "Go quickly, go find your Uncle Santou, and let him go find his mother."
.”
The child ran away in a flash.
While talking, the carriage finally arrived. In the first carriage sat Mr. Zhuang and the New Year's goods they had brought back.
There was no other way. When they came back from Yizhou City, they had to pass through Qili Village before reaching the county seat. It gets dark quickly in winter, so they just took the official road to the county seat. When they arrived at the city gate, the city gate was also closed.
So I went straight back to Qili Village.
As soon as they entered the village road, Man Bao climbed out of the car and sat on the shaft of the car with Zhou Lang, looking at the flowers and plants of his hometown through the last bit of light.
These things have all been pulled out by her before.
Seeing that they were almost reaching the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village, Manbao stood up and looked forward, but unfortunately she didn't see anything. It was Keke who told her that one of the old men sitting under the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village was her father. Manbao then
shouted.
The carriage stopped at the entrance of the village, and the old man and children who were sitting there came to greet him. Daji put down the horse stool and helped Mr. Zhuang down.
Yes, the old men are here to greet Mr. Zhuang.
Mr. Zhuang bowed repeatedly in return. Old Zhou only glanced at Mr. Zhuang, saluted him, and then went to the carriage behind.
Man Bao was the first to jump out of the carriage. When she saw her father, she jumped over to hug him. Lao Zhoutou quickly stopped her and said cheerfully: "We are all grown up girls. We don't want to hug him like this anymore."
After saying that, he couldn't help but reached out and touched her head. He looked at her body and face carefully, and said with satisfaction: "Not bad, not bad. It looks like she has grown up a lot. Are you full after eating outside?"
Did Sixth Brother cook meat for you?"
While talking, Bai Shan, Bai Erlang, and Zhou Lijun also jumped out of the car, and everyone greeted each other.
Zhou Lang took out a bag of candies from the car and went forward to distribute them to everyone he saw, including the elderly and children. They all regarded it as a happy occasion.
This is what people who have been away from home for a long time will prepare.
When the children received the candy, they immediately shouted happily, and the originally quiet village immediately began to hear the sound of cocks and dogs barking, and many children, half-year-olds and teenagers came out to join in the fun.
Fortunately, Zhou Lang had already made preparations, handing out one or two candies to each person. He didn’t give too much, but he prepared a lot, so he gave it to as many people as came.
Everyone just gathered at the entrance of the village and became lively at the last bit of daylight.
The people who came later simply came over with torches, finally lighting up a little bit. When Zhou Lang saw clearly the person who had squeezed his hand in front of him, he couldn't help but slap him with one hand, "Go, go, you're all this."
I have extended my hand several times, leaving some for the people behind me."
Manbao took Lao Zhoutou and stood outside the crowd, counting the things she brought back with her fingers, "Dad, I bought you two sets of thick clothes. They are ready-made clothes. I tried them on, but
It’s thicker. If you want to brag under the banyan tree again in the future, you won’t be afraid of being blown by the wind.”
"Nonsense, your father and I never brag, but how did you try?"
Man Bao said: "I put it on my body and it was really warm."
Old Zhou was relieved and felt a little proud in his heart, but he said: "Why spend that money? Ready-made clothes are more expensive than fabrics, right? You might as well just buy the fabrics and cotton and let your mother make them."
"I also brought you the bacon from Yizhou City. The bacon they smoke is a little different from the one we smoke. They added some spices to it, which makes it very fragrant."
"Really? Then I have to give it a try."
The father and daughter were chatting as if no one was around. The Bai family on the other side of the river also came over with lanterns. When Mr. Bai crossed the bridge and took a look, he found that his son could not be seen among the crowd of people, so he couldn't help but scream.
Shout, "Erlang, Erlang——"
Bai Erlang, who was handing out candy not far away from Mr. Bai, looked up and said, "Dad, stop shouting, I'm here."
Mr. Bai turned his head and saw him. He happily went up to pat his shoulder and hugged him before he remembered, "By the way, where is Shanbao?"
Bai Shan had already run towards Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Zheng, and the whole family hugged each other and talked.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Mr. Zhuang shook his head, turned to Daji and said, "Let's go, the dew is about to fall, let's go back and rest first."
