Qin Hao's daily life in another world

The cake was frozen in the yard, and was watched several times by family members. Xu You has been happy since she woke up in the morning, grinning to her ears, and her heart is bubbling with joy. This birthday is the most memorable one in 14 years.

Uncle cooked a few good dishes, and made a small bowl of Changshou noodles for Xu Wei alone. Xu Wei sat at the head of the table, with brother-in-law on the left and brother on the right, looking at the full of meals and cakes in front of him, A thin red candle was lit on the cake, and the little black face flushed with excitement.

"Come on, Xu You, put your palms together, make a birthday wish, and say it in your heart, don't tell us."

"Blow out the candle in one breath, and the wish will come true." Qin Hao patted Xu You's shoulder, his cold facial features were much softer than usual.

Xu You closed her eyes and hoped in her heart that she hoped that her brother-in-law and brother-in-law would continue to be happy as they are now, that the whole family would be in good health, and that she would become as useful as her brother-in-law when she grows up.

Blowing out the candle in one breath, I felt my eyes sting, and tears rolled in my eye sockets. Xu You wiped her eyes vigorously, wiped away the tears, stood up, bowed to the whole family, and said seriously: "Brother , Brother, Uncle, Brother Hua, Brother Cao, little brother, thank you for celebrating my birthday today, I am so happy, I will never forget it in my life."

"Silly boy, happy birthday, every year will be today, and you also want to celebrate the birthday of the rest of the family."

"Xiao Yi, cut the biggest piece of cake and give it to our birthday boy." Qin Hao hugged Xu You hard, patted him on the shoulder twice, and Xu You cried out in pain.

"Brother, go hug brother, don't hug me, your arms will be broken by you." The little worry was also beaten away by brother.

"Brother, I also want a cake, and I want the biggest piece." Xu Shan held up the spoon, afraid that his brother would not see him.

Xu Yi first cut a piece of cake for Xu Er, then handed the knife to Uncle Wang, and asked him to cut it for others.

"Uncle, give everyone a point, and I'll go get Xu Wei's birthday present."

Xu Yi brought a cloth bag from the bedroom. When he opened it, he found a pair of wolf fur short boots. The boots were fluffy, and they looked very warm.

"Xu Er, happy birthday, my brother has nothing else to ask of you, only your health and safety."

Xu You's teary eyes were dim, and he was so moved that he wanted to throw himself into his brother's arms. He glanced at his brother who was sharpening his knife, and felt that his arm was hurting again. I will wear it carefully."

"This is my birthday present to you. Go and buy what you like." Qin Hao threw him a small red cloth bag, opened it, and found two taels of silver.

"Brother, is this really for me? Wow, a lot of silver." Xu Wei jumped up in surprise, picked up the broken silver and gritted his teeth, smiling like a fool.

Xu Hua and Brother Cao stared at Xu Wei enviously, who wouldn't want money.

Qin Hao answered casually: "Xu Hua, Xu Shan and Brother Cao don't need to be envious, just wait a few more days, and after the Chinese New Year, everyone will have a red envelope."

Now, all the children happily stood up and twirled around, their butter-covered mouths became so sweet, they blew out obediently and free of money, and they insisted on praising their brother-in-law as a flower.

Uncle Wang took out a small bundle from behind, and handed it to Xu You with a smile: "Xiao You, Uncle made you two sets of underwear, don't be disgusted."

Brother Cao also made a purse for Xu Wei, and Xu Wei was holding hands full of gifts, smiling so hard that he couldn't see his eyes: "Brother Hua, you are the only one left, what birthday gift do you want to give me?"

"Our two brothers, who is with whom? Of course I will think of you." Xu Hua chuckled, took out a bunch of copper coins from his pocket, kept fourteen, and put the others back in his pocket: "Here, Fourteen years old, fourteen big bucks."

When I saw it, I didn't have any preparations, so I came up with the improvisation. Xu You rolled her eyes and said with disgust: "Brother Hua, you are too lazy, why is it not 140 essays?"

"Then do you want it or not?"

Xu Hua pretended to take back the fourteen coins, and Xu You snatched the copper coins with one hand. The meat of the fly's legs is also meat, so don't want it for nothing.

"Second brother, my copper money is under the control of my elder brother. I can only pay three coins at a time. I have no money for you." Xu Shan was afraid that his second brother would question him, so he stood up quickly, opened his pocket, and lay pitifully inside. With a penny.

Xu Wei took two pieces of money from the string of money Xu Hua gave, stuffed them into Xu Shan's pocket, and said generously: "It's okay, Second Brother has a lot of money today, I'll share some with you."

The two brothers looked at each other with tears in their hands and hiccupped together, which was like a respectful scene of brothers and sisters.

Seeing that the cake on the table was divided into sevens and eighties, Qin Hao picked up a lump of cream with his fingers, and wiped it on the mouth of the two brothers, and a funny white beard appeared on the lips of the two brothers.

"Brother!!!" Xu Wei and Xu Shan came to their senses, and they also climbed onto the table to pick up the butter. They wanted to avenge their brother with the same enemy. In the chaos, they were wiped by Xu Hua and Brother Cao again, and they were so angry Shouting loudly, he chased after Xu Hua and Brother Cao, vowing to seek justice from them.

Xu Yi and Uncle Wang looked at each other and smiled. On such a comfortable day, they almost woke up from their dreams.

After the birthday banquet was finished lively, the little ones ran back to the bedroom to change into clean clothes, muttering and talking endlessly.

Uncle Wang and Xu Yi packed up the dishes and began to clean the yard and each house, making sure that every corner was covered. This is the annual dust sweep, and the Kitchen God can only be sacrificed after sweeping the dust.

The children who had changed their clothes came back to help, some were in charge of cleaning, some were in charge of scrubbing. In less than an hour, the house was cleaned up spotlessly clean and shiny, even the gutter outside the yard had been washed.

Uncle Wang placed a small table in front of the stove with sweets and snacks and some dried fruits. There was a small altar in the middle with three incense sticks and two red candles. A glass of wine was placed in front of the altar.

"Lord Stove, there are many happy events at home this year. My brother has found a good king, and the boy has found a virtuous man. The whole year will be smooth. I give you a sweet mouth. I wish the whole family peace and good health in the coming year." Uncle muttered something in his mouth. With a thick layer of syrup on his hands, he smeared heavily on the mouth of the Stove Lord in the portrait.

Xu Yi squatted on the side burning paper money, while the others stood in front of the small table with solemn expressions, bowing their heads and standing silently.

When the paper money is burned, Uncle Wang respectfully invites down the statue of the Stove Lord, holds it in both hands, puts it into the fire, and says "Send the Stove Lord" in his mouth. In the evening of New Year's Eve, when the portrait of the Stove Lord is pasted on the stove again, and a table is set up to welcome him down from the heaven, the whole ceremony will be considered complete.

"Qin Hao, come here and bow." Uncle Wang called Qin Hao softly, let him stand at the front, and brought the whole family to bow to the altar together.

After going through all the procedures, it was almost dark, and the leftovers at noon were heated up. Everyone sat around in the greenhouse and had some dinner casually. Scattered a handful of sugar, today is his birthday, and he always gets some preferential treatment.

After a delay, it was another day to go back to the room in disgrace. After settling down my brother and uncle, the couple returned to their bedroom with a lantern.

"Brother Hao, do you still want to write a plan tonight?" Xu Yi lit the lights in the room, then turned to ask Qin Hao, if Qin Hao wanted to write at his desk, he would light another oil lamp.

Qin Hao took off his outer robe, turned over and crawled into the quilt, and waved to Xu Yi: "I won't write today, I've finished writing, let's talk."

"When the college is built next year, I want to renovate my family's house and buy some servants."

Xu Yi obediently lay down in Qin Hao's arms, and said in a muffled voice, "Hurry up and build it. Now when I think of the gold and silver at home, my heart will rise to my throat."

"It's really worthless." Qin Hao squeezed Xu Yi's palm and chuckled: "This is one reason, and the main reason is that there will be more people coming and going next year, and most of them have identities. We can't even answer the door. No one was there."

"And it can't be like now, where people can come to you casually."

"Well, I know that when the pier and the villa are built, there will be too many people in the village and outside the village who want to work, and they will come to ask for connections, and the college recruits students, and some people will come to you for help." Although Xu Yi didn't After reading the book, my mind turns quickly: "Next year, my younger brothers and I will go to study. My uncle can't do it alone, so I still need to find someone to do housework."

"So you ask your uncle and younger brother what kind of house you want to live in, and I will find time to draw it in the next year." Qin Hao whispered in Xu Yi's ear, and Xu Yi couldn't help shrinking back as the heat came over him.

"Well, I'll tell them that Xu Hua is going to get married after the Chinese New Year. Uncle said that he wants to pay for the wedding banquet himself and won't let us intervene. Then we should take as much money as we want."

Qin Hao pinched his earlobe, and said in a warm voice: "Just do as uncle said, the wedding banquet will be accompanied by the ceremony normally, and I will give uncle 50 taels of silver on New Year's Eve, and he has no reason to refuse."

"You're still smart, you can solve it right away." Xu Yi kissed Qin Hao's face and laughed.

"Xu Hua and Brother Cao will both be able to make money next year, so uncle won't be so alien, and now we spend our money, no matter what, he will still mind a little bit, the elders are like this, take your time .”

Xu Yi nodded in frustration: "Yes, I can understand it, and it's the same if I change roles with him."

"Okay, let's think more and do more. In the end, we are a family and will figure it out."

The two couples chatted about the trivial matters at home, and couldn't fall asleep for a long time. On the other side of the house, Xu Er was lying on the bed, too excited to fall asleep.

All the presents were put into the cabinet, Xu Shan lay beside her and snored a little, Xu Er looked at the decals on the window, and suddenly thought of Father and Ah.

Unlike Xu Shan, Xu Wei has an impression of his father. When he was a child, the family was not poor, with a few acres of land. His father also went to Fucheng fishing boats to do handyman, and often brought snacks back.

I will also celebrate his birthday. On his birthday, Ah Mo will make longevity noodles for him, and he will also fry two sugar-coated eggs, sprinkled with sugar, sweet, this is the taste of birthday in memory.

Four years after my father left, my family quickly became poor, and I never tasted the taste of birthdays. Today, my brother-in-law made cakes for him, my uncle made longevity noodles for him, and my brother made sweet eggs for him. back again.

"Father, Ah, don't worry, brother, me, and Xiaoshan have all grown up." Xu You said silently to the sky, tears flowed down, but this time, they were tears of happiness.
