Chapter 87 A Glorious and Difficult Mission
At this moment, neither Liu's father nor Liu Qiwen are at home, apparently they are working overtime.
After Fang put his things down, he didn't stay long.
"Tonight is New Year's Eve, why don't you stay? Can you spend it at my house?"
When seeing Fang off, Liu Shuying looked a little sad.
"Ah? That's not appropriate. If it's next year, it should be okay."
Fang wanted to know that Liu Shuying meant well, and she was also afraid that she would be too lonely on New Year's Eve.
However, Fang Xiang is not mentally prepared for this.
"It's up to you. Anyway, I really hope you don't leave."
When Liu Shuying saw Fang Xiang politely rejected her, she immediately pouted.
"I was just wondering if our speed was a bit too fast."
Fang Xiang scratched his head and suddenly remembered after he said this.
Isn't this the most common phrase used by bad women in later generations?
"I don't care. Anyway, I will rely on you for the rest of my life, humph!"
Liu Shuying didn't want to think so much, as long as she could be with Fang Xiang.
I feel that even the air I breathe is sweet.
I wish time could stay at this moment forever.
“By the way, you gave me all your father’s cigarettes, alcohol, and tea.
Aren't you afraid that your father will beat you when he gets home?"
Fang Xiang turned his head to take a look at the back seat of the bicycle, and this time there were more things on it.
Just when Fang was about to unload his things and leave, Liu Shuying acted like a bandit.
A large pile of things were dragged out from Liu's father's study.
It doesn’t matter that Fang Xiang doesn’t smoke, doesn’t like to drink, and doesn’t even drink much tea.
He stuffed it in as hard as he could, and even Mother Liu started to make a noise.
A hand pulled Fang Xiang's bicycle to prevent him from moving.
With his other hand, he directed his girl, saying that there were some hidden items here, and that they were more expensive.
In the blink of an eye, Father Liu's study was like a thief, and all the valuables were turned out.
The mother and daughter didn't care whether Fang wanted it or not and just loaded the things into the car.
"No way, don't be fooled by my dad's stern face every day. In fact, he loves me the most."
Liu Shuying held Fang Xiang's arm and smiled as brightly as a flower.
"Then I'll leave first, don't see me off."
As he was talking, they arrived at the gate of the compound and stopped.
"Well, can you touch my head again?"
Liu Shuying put her hands behind her back, tilted her head and looked at Fang Xiang.
Her two feet moved in increments, and her high ponytail also swayed back and forth.
"good."
Fang Xiang looked at the adorable little girl and smiled dotingly.
He reached out and touched her little head.
On the way home, Fang Xiang couldn't help but sigh and finally understood why men like 18-year-olds.
Sincere, brave, passionate, innocent, frank, pure and lovely.
Sure enough, I am not exempt from vulgarity.
Before I even returned to the courtyard, the entire Nanluoguxiang was already filled with the sound of firecrackers.
At the entrance of every alley, there are three or five children forming a group.
He held a lit incense stick in his hand and his pockets were filled with disassembled firecrackers.
They look for what they think is the best place to ignite the firecrackers and stuff them into cracks in the wall or into ant nests.
Use a long burning incense stick, lean over to light the fuse, then run away happily.
Covering my ears, just waiting for the sound of the cannon to welcome the spring.
In addition to children playing on the streets, there are also adults coming and going.
With smiles on their faces, they walk around the streets carrying freshly bought vegetables or snacks in their hands.
When they meet each other, they greet each other warmly.
Or they would stop and chat enthusiastically about family matters on the side of the road.
Looking at all this, Fang Xiang felt that the New Year atmosphere now was much stronger than in the future.
Soon, we returned to the courtyard, and hot white smoke was coming out of every household in the yard.
There is no doubt that every family has already started cooking dumplings.
Fang wanted to park the car, open the door, and move the things loaded and hung in the car into the house bit by bit.
Just a quick inventory.
These days, the Liu family, Mr. Hu and Li Changjiang gave me these things.
Not to mention anything else, there are about forty or fifty bottles of wine alone. The worst one is Fenjiu, and the rest are Moutai.
The same goes for cigarettes. Zhonghua makes up the vast majority, the remaining few are Mudan, and there is not a single Daqianmen.
I couldn't understand why there were so many tea leaves. Looking at the bags and cans of tea, I couldn't tell the quality of the tea.
But I think it must not be cheap.
In addition to cigarettes, alcohol and tea, there are at least dozens of kilograms of melon seeds, peanuts, candies, fruits, etc.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around at the moment, Fang Xiang put everything into the space.
Now the space, which was not very big to begin with, is now almost filled up to only half of its original size.
Fang Xiang felt a bit of a headache after seeing this.
Speaking of traveling through time, memory is the biggest benefit, and this space ranks second, there is no doubt about it.
But this space is a bit too small, only two cubic meters in total.
I don't know if there is any way to expand it.
After looking for a long time, it was still the same as before, and I found nothing.
I can only give up again.
He changed a piece of honeycomb coal and opened the fire door of the stove.
I set up the pot, filled it with water, and counted 40 dumplings.
After a while, the water boiled and the dumplings were put in.
As the water boils, the aroma of dumplings begins to spread.
While it's still not cooked, pour half a bowl of vinegar and add a few drops of sesame oil and soy sauce.
I then took out some chili oil that I brought back from the mutton soup restaurant and put some in.
He picked up the cooked dumplings and started eating them.
In just a few minutes, 40 dumplings were eaten.
After eating the dumplings, Fang Xiang began to daydream.
It's just past 7 o'clock now.
If it were in the future, the whole family would probably get together in a lively atmosphere.
There is a table full of dishes, snacks, drinks, candies and so on, waiting to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
Although Fang Xiang doesn't like watching that stuff, he thinks it's not as fun as playing games.
But this only happens once a year, so I will still stay with my family and pretend to be happy until 12 o'clock.
Then go out and set off a string of firecrackers or a bunch of fireworks.
The Spring Festival in later generations, compared with today, does not have as much festive atmosphere.
But the warmth of family members getting together.
But it is much better than staying alone in this little house.
With a sigh, Fang Xiang began to clean up the dishes and wash the pots and bowls.
After we finished cleaning up, it was only 8 o'clock.
The sound of firecrackers outside became louder.
Since there's nothing to do anyway, I might as well set off the firecrackers.
He did what he said and found the newly bought firecrackers and took out a pack.
He took the matches and went out of the yard.
As soon as I walked out the door, I found that there were a lot of people standing outside.
Everyone is watching the firecrackers.
When they saw Fang Xiang coming out, they all greeted him enthusiastically.
Fang Xiang smiled and nodded, then opened the red paper package with the word "Liuyang River" written on it.
Lay the folded firecrackers flat on the ground.
"Uncle Xiang, don't use matches, use my burning incense instead."
When he looked up, he saw that it was the third son of the Yan family, who was holding a half-burned incense stick and handed it to him.
"Come on, Jie Kuang, the glorious and arduous task of firing the cannon is now handed over to you."
Fang Xiang stood up with a smile and gave his seat to Yan Jiekuang.
"Yes! Promise to complete the mission!"
When Yan Jiekuang heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he immediately pretended to salute.
This immediately brought a burst of good-natured laughter from the neighbors.
“Pah pah pah pah pah…”
Thousands of firecrackers went off for two minutes.
Fang Xiang stood at the gate of the yard, looking at the neighbors in the yard, all of whom were covering their ears.
With smiles on their faces, they watched the firecrackers emitting red sparks, and leaped joyfully on the ground like a fire dragon.
It’s great to celebrate the Chinese New Year.
