.When I pulled the door latch and opened the door of the small shop, the wind and snow were tight.

Xiaonanzhuang Village is very quiet on a windy and snowy night. The village is so quiet that there is no barking at the dogs. Ma Xiaole wrapped his clothes tightly and walked towards the orchard. The snow on the ground is already very thick, and it makes a "crunch" sound when stepping on it.

Along the way, Ma Xiaole thought about Tian Xiao'e's words about Yao Xiaoyan, but she really couldn't tell. Yao Xiaoyan was still a condescending woman. Men are so curious, Ma Xiaole really wanted to catch Yao Xiaoyan tightly and sleep tightly, and taste what she felt like with a solid body. But when she thought of Liu Changxi, Ma Xiaole shook her head again, "Oh, Changxi, you treat me well, I am not a person without conscience. I will be a bad person for you!" Ma Xiaole thought that women can live on a daily basis, but they can't live on whoever they want. There must be a principle in being a human being and not against your conscience.

The snow was so strong that it was tight and loose, floating until the first day of the Lunar New Year.

The snow was falling for more than two days, and everyone was so depressed that they were so depressed that they couldn't relieve the suffocation of firecrackers on the night of New Year's Eve and on the morning of the first day of the New Year. They were only excited when the whip was ringing.

In this weather, men are fine. They come together to play poker and mahjong. The old plays sparrow cards, which are a simplified version of mahjong. They are a bit of gambling and are interested in bringing a little bit of lottery. The most difficult thing is women. They walk to the west room, and walk to the east room, and look for some places here, or take a walk to chat about old sesame seeds and millet. But when it comes to cooking, they feel like a genuine woman after a while. Children can catch sparrows and sweep a small piece of land in the yard.

Sprinkle some millet, cover a basket, hold the edge with a small stick, tie a rope to the stick, and pull it all the way to the house. Those little sparrows that cannot stand hungry to come out to find food in the snow will come to peck at the bottom of the basket, and when the rope is pulled in the house, the small stick moves, and the basket falls, it will cover it. If there are dogs at home, you can take the dog to the wild field to catch rabbits. If you are more courageous, go farther to the south mountain and you will have more wild game, but it is also dangerous. If there are wolves in the mountains, most people will not let their children run so far, and at most they will be on the small slope at the foot of the mountain.

Ma Xiaole was still interested in catching a hare with dogs, but he felt that he could no longer do that, otherwise the villagers would not grow up because they were laughing at him. Besides, Ah Huang was no longer there, and without that old friend, Ma Xiaole had no idea.

When Ma Xiaole thought of Ah Huang, she was still full of sadness and couldn't help feeling sad. She thought about the first year of her death, and she would worship her well no matter what.

Early in the morning of the first day of the Chinese New Year, Ma Xiaole got up, took brown candy, candy, apples and oranges, and brought a stack of burning paper. He came to A Huang's grave like a decent place, burned the paper and put it incense, and bowed for a while.

After worshiping Ah Huang, it was time to go home for breakfast. The breakfast was dumplings and dumplings. Ma Xiaole was muttering on the way back to the village from the orchard. In the past, he had been looking forward to the New Year, but for the first few days he thought about the hot pork dumplings and dumplings with sandwich. Although his living conditions are better now, his feelings for many years are still so strong.

The breakfast was finished soon. According to the rules, the cadres of the village committee would come together and go to the homes of the families of the village who are more capable, Lao Lie's military families, to wish him a New Year. Ma Xiaole thought that the village cadres would definitely come back to his house, so he asked Hu Aiying to prepare candy, but when he touched his pocket, he forgot to bring the cigarette. The good cigarette that Jinzhu gave him fell in the orchard.

Ma Xiaole hurried back to the orchard to get cigarettes, and waited for the village cadres to come and disperse.

The snow still did not stop. In fact, the road to Ma Xiaole's orchard has not stopped in the past two days. Since the afternoon of the 29th day of the Chinese New Year, people have gone to see Ma Xiaole one after another, even if they chat casually. Especially today, on the first day of the Chinese New Year, Ma Xiaole had just entered the house and had not had a long time, and had a cigarette and was about to leave, but the villagers who came to see him one after another. It is a custom to visit the door on the first day of the Chinese New Year, and to pay New Year's greetings. Ma Xiaole felt very embarrassed. Generally, the younger generation took the initiative to visit the elders' homes. He was not old and was young, but there were so many families with older generations in the village who were older than him.

Ma Xiaole was not vague. As long as someone came, he would treat him with cigarettes and greet him politely. If a child and an adult came, he would take out good candy and stuff it into their hands. Ma Xiaole knew that the villagers came to see him because it was because of his work in the village, but people had to learn to return the favor and respect them. They should not look down on others if they were too big.

After finally sending away a group of people, Ma Xiaole quickly locked the door and left. Otherwise, if someone would come one night, he would not be able to leave.

When he got home, Ma Xiaole asked, "Dad, is someone coming from the village?"

"Here, I'm leaving again. There are so many things in the world. Many people are going to go, but I haven't waited for you. They asked me to send you a message and go to Liu Changxi's house to have a drink at noon." Ma Changgen laughed, "Xiaole, look at you, you've come to work in the village, it's different. Village cadres have to come to my house to pay New Year's greetings!"

Ma Xiaole was also very happy. Everyone has a vanity. Ma Xiaole was very proud of that aspect at this moment, "Dad, who has come?"

"Liu Changxi, Ding Jianshe, Xu Hongqi, Gao Desheng, Gu Meiyu..." Ma Changgen counted with his fingers. But Ma Xiaole sounded a little wrong, "Dad, why don't Fan Baofa?"

"He doesn't seem to see it." Ma Changgen said seriously, "There is no figure of him."

"Oh." Ma Xiaole nodded seriously. Ma Changgen looked at it and frowned slightly, "Yes, why didn't he come? The village party secretary should have come too."

Ma Xiaole understood what was going on, because Fan Zao Ni, thought that Fan Zao Ni went to work at the Times, and the partner he was looking for was sometimes from the head of the city's propaganda department, so awesome! Thinking of this, Ma Xiaole was not convinced, and felt that Fan Baofa was too powerful, but the fact is indeed the case. Who would not resist?

Everything depends on yourself, just think it smoothly. Ma Xiaole can figure it smoothly, but Fan Baofa doesn't come if he doesn't come, so he doesn't come. There is nothing to worry about. However, when he thinks of Fan Zao Ni, Ma Xiaole can't calm down. Thinking of that little girl, it's no different to be together every day when she was a child, but she got into school and now she goes to the city, living in high-rise buildings and walking on flat cement roads. Even if it rains and snows, the stars of mud are not touched.

Thinking of this, Ma Xiaole's sense of superiority disappeared. It might not matter if Fan Zao Ni was replaced by someone else, but it was Fan Zao Ni. Ma Xiaole's vague feeling about women was cultivated by her. Regarding Fan Zao Ni, Ma Xiaole felt that she could not ride a buffalo and was afraid of being looked down upon by the buffalo. He always felt that Fan Zao Ni looked down on him, at least he didn't think he was a decent green onion. In addition, Fan Zao Ni saw his words before, and joked that his thing was too ugly, and even chased him out of the gate and said that he himself felt that he could not raise his head in front of Fan Zao Ni.

"Xiaole, why are you stupid? If Fan Bao doesn't come, he won't come. People who like to show off have nothing to care about." Ma Changgen saw that Ma Xiaole was depressed and wanted to enlighten him.

"What dad, I didn't think about Fan Baofa's incident. I don't care whether he likes to come or not." Ma Xiaole pretended to be nothing, "I'm wondering if I'll go to Liu Changxi's house to have a drink this afternoon."

"Then you have to go. After all, they are the newly appointed village chief. If you don't go, you won't give me a gift." Ma Changgen said immediately.

In fact, Ma Xiaole knew this, but just said it casually to cover up the things that Fan Baofa was thinking of, but he continued to say it as Ma Changgen said, "Well, yes, you have to go!" After Ma Xiaole finished speaking, he took out a box of good cigarettes and put them in Ma Changgen's arms, "Dad, it's so precious to try this cigarette." After that, he walked out of the house and went to the street to take a look.

Because the snow didn't stop and there were no people on the street. Ma Xiaole felt that he was not very energetic, so he went back to the orchard. He had already planned to go to Liu Changxi's house at noon, but he couldn't have a copy. At least he, Liu Changxi, had to come and call him last time, otherwise he would be too shameless.

When I walked to the village, a group of children were setting off firecrackers and thinking about using all kinds of ideas. When I saw a piece of cow dung, I would insert the firecrackers into them. After lit the fire, I ran away. In a few seconds, the big piece of cow dung was blown into stark dung particles and scattered. If an adult happened to pass by, he would be covered with cow dung. However, whenever he encountered this situation, he would not get angry. There was a statement, which indicates that he would encounter great fortune in the new year.

Ma Xiaole saw Erlengzi among the children, and he had a lot of fun. Ma Xiaole thought Erlengzi was very sad. She was so old and was still stupid like a child. "Xiaokang, come here!" Ma Xiaole waved to Erlengzi. Erlengzi saw that it was Ma Xiaole and ran over "swooshing", "Xiaole, why are you catching shrimp?"

Ma Xiaole wanted to laugh, but it was not ridiculous. "Xiaokang, it's so cold that I'm hiding, it's a big deal." Ma Xiaole took out five dollars, "Xiaokang, give you money, go to the store to buy candy cubes."

Erlenzi looked at the money and wanted to reach out to grab it, but he didn't, "No, my mother said, you can't ask for other people's money."

Ma Xiaole thought about it and felt that it was not appropriate. What was the matter for giving Erleenzi money, so he put it away and said casually, "Your mother is so nice."

"My mother is not good!" Erlenzi said seriously when he heard this.

Ma Xiaole was puzzled and asked hurriedly: "Why are your mother wrong?"

"My mother can hit people, she will hit my dad."

"Beat your father?" Ma Xiaole was really confused. How did he fight? Moreover, Liu Shuying is not the kind of fierce woman, so why did she hit a man? "Xiaokang, why did your mother hit your father?" Ma Xiaole asked again.

"The night before yesterday, my father and I were gnawing pig skulls in the house, but my mother always refused to come in. Later, when we were sleeping, my father said there was something on my mother's pants, and said that my mother was not clean and said something might be a stole man. When my mother heard this, she slapped her father and slapped him again." Erlenzi said in his tone that he was biased towards his father, because Zhao Ruyi didn't go home often, and he brought him delicious food every time he went home and even teased him.

"Xiaokang, look at me. Your father should beat him, and he should beat him when he talks nonsense!" said Ma Xiaole.

"No, I think my father is good, my mother shouldn't hit him!" Erlenzi said very seriously.

When Ma Xiaole thought about it, he was afraid of being serious with Erlenzi, so he turned his eyes, "Xiaokang, as long as you say your father should be beaten, your mother is right, I will take you to the river to catch fish, it's so big!"

When Erlenzi heard this, he immediately clapped his hands and said, "Okay, my father should hit me, my mother hit me right!"
