sailing in that era

After the family returned to the village, it suddenly became lively.

After Peng's father came back this time, he received unprecedented treatment. Every family came to their house to give gifts and so on. Treating guests to dinner was commonplace.

The story of her cousin's fortune in the county spread throughout the village. Her teenage sister, Liang, accidentally spread the story of her making money in the county to the whole village.

The result of this is that the matter of Peng Baili's sudden wealth cannot be concealed, and many things that cannot be uncovered will not be mentioned. Even Peng's father and several old brothers came to ask for help.

Uncle: "Jingui, your elder brother is ten years older than you. He basically raised you up. My sister-in-law also gave you a lot of food. Now that you are prosperous, don't forget your elder brother! He is an honest man. , what do you mean to say, I can only be cheeky today..."

The second aunt: "Jingui, although our two families have some conflicts, my sister-in-law has always been good to you. There is a saying that breaks the bones and connects the tendons. Our family is still eating bran and swallow vegetables! It's winter, you Go and see your second brother's hands, they are cracked from working as a stonemason day in and day out..."

Aunt San: "Although your niece made a little money with you, don't you have several nephews? They are also waiting to be fed and want to find something to do..."

After Peng's father had dealt with these sister-in-laws, his face was depressed, and the good mood that was praised by others when he just returned was gone.

"Boss, why don't you find something for them to do next year?"

"Yeah, it's not easy to see them now!"

Mother Peng also looked at Peng Baili. When she returned to the village to admire her, she also really wanted to do something for the village.

Seeing them like this, Peng Baili was filled with emotion!

Poor speculation, poor speculation!

When there is no money, it is quite easy to quarrel among neighbors. Everyone is fussy, and they can go all out for three melons, but how many bad guys are there?

"No problem, let a few cousins ​​go to the printing factory after the Chinese New Year."

Peng Baili thought for a while and said.

Although it is not a good place for the workers in the printing factory, it is undoubtedly much better than doing farm work.

Now the wages in the factory are about 15 yuan, but the village does not necessarily have a monthly salary.

At the end of the year, while the family is receiving guests, it is also doing New Year's goods.

Mother Peng is much more comfortable spending money now. Although she bought a lot of things in the county, she always returned with a full load when going to the market in the village.

Peng Baili couldn't help asking as he watched his mother put things in big and small bags again.

"Mom, are you finished eating?"

With a smile all over her face, the mother said confidently.

"It's okay if you can't finish it, you can take it back to the county to eat!"

He was a little speechless when he heard this. Does the county want anything?

Is it worth moving back and forth?

But seeing her happy face and the envious faces of the aunts in the village, he didn't say anything.

Who doesn't have much face yet?

The closer it is to the new year, the colder the weather.

The heavy snow in the south is not like the porcelain in the north, which falls in granular form, but floats down like goose feathers. The snow on the ground is not too thick, and a lot of snow just melts when it hits the ground.

But this weather is really cold, the kind of biting cold.

At this time, the rural people who have been busy for a year also rested.

Everyone started the most important season of the year, killing pigs.

This thing doesn't have to wait until the end of the year, as long as it is after Dongyue.

But only wealthy families can afford to kill the New Year pigs in the winter months, because they can kill two. First kill one New Year pig to try something new, and then kill another after the twelfth lunar month.

There are also those who are greedy, and it is also Dongyue who directly kills the Nian pig.

Only the majority of people who know how to live will choose to slaughter in the first few days before the new year.

At this time is the happiest time for the children in the village. As long as they help the host family a little, they can have a delicious meal of pig-killing dishes.

From a distance, Peng Baili saw the fat man coming to their house with the guy on his back, watching him work for his father, a pig butcher, his whole body was shiny.

This is because their family is about to slaughter a pig. The pig was bought in the village, and it looks like a fat, strong black-haired pig.

I heard from my parents that this kind of pork is delicious!

"Fatty, you are taking over from your father!"

"Master, do you think I want to, the old man forced me to do it, after all, killing a pig can make a lot of money!"

Fatty's face was embarrassing, it was the first time he came out to help his father with this, during this period of time he went to several clubs with him, and he was embarrassed to meet his classmates.

But for money, don't be ashamed!

For every pig he kills, the old man will give him fifty cents!

If the money is used well, he can get out of the single before graduation!

"Brother... I want to help!"

The third child was jumping up and down excitedly, like a little monkey, very happy.

"Go away and play!"

Peng Baili had a look of disgust on his face. After this guy returned to the village, within a day, his body became dirty, and he also liked to get on other people's bodies.

In addition, I have caught a cold during this period of time, and the snot from my nose is really annoying!

When the family kills pigs, the mother first burns some money paper and then starts to kill the pigs. Her old man attaches great importance to this set of customs, and every time their family kills pigs, they have to go through this set of procedures.

Although the third child had the posture of wanting to kill a pig, but when it came to the real knife and gun, he ran a long way.

Peng Baili watched all this, only to realize that the flavor of the new year is getting stronger and stronger. The children in the village are dancing and playing non-stop, and their TV is still very popular.

As soon as I had to talk, the electricity in the village was finally turned on. I heard that the first night when the village was connected, everyone just watched the lighting and did not sleep all night.

Excited!

Peng Baili felt a little regretful that he didn't see this scene. He felt that if this scene was filmed, it must be a valuable moment.

The work of the power station is finished and the electricity is connected, but the wages are still far away.

That is to say, seeing that every household is connected to electricity can give everyone a little comfort, otherwise it will be really depressed to death.

Their family also brought a black-and-white TV home during the Chinese New Year this year, which drove the children in the village crazy, and the house was full every day.

Even adults often come to join in the fun.

For a while, Peng Baili was very uncomfortable!

After decades, who would still watch TV?

But now the village is really rare tight!

In the past, in the summer nights, everyone could only enjoy the cool in the yard, and talk around the fire in the winter nights.

Now that there is a TV, it suddenly opened their eyes. Many Xiangjiang TV dramas also entered the mainland at this time, such as Huo Yuanjia, Chen Zhen, Huang Rong, etc., which are very popular among children and adults.
