The snow has not stopped, and there are no people on the street.

Ma Xiaole felt bored, so he went back to the orchard. He had already made plans. Although he was going to Liu Changxi's house for a drink at noon, he couldn't do anything wrong. At least Liu Changxi had to come and invite him in person, otherwise he would not look good enough.

big.

When we walked to the village, a group of children were setting off firecrackers. They were trying to use all kinds of bad ideas. When they saw a lump of cow dung, they would poke the firecracker into it, light it up and run away. In a few seconds, that big lump of cow dung would explode.

The excrement was exploded into tiny dung particles and scattered in all directions. If anyone happened to pass by, they would be covered in it.

However, adults are not angry every time they encounter this kind of situation. There is a saying that it indicates that they will encounter great wealth in the new year.

Ma Xiaole saw Erlengzi among the children and was having a lot of fun. "Xiaokang, come here!" He waved to Erlengzi. Now, he no longer calls Xiaokang "Erlenzi".

Erlingzi saw it was Ma Xiaole and ran over with a swish, "Xiaole, what are you doing, are you catching shrimps?"

Ma Xiaole wanted to laugh, but couldn't. "Xiaokang, it's so cold that the shrimps are hiding. What a fool." After saying that, he took out five yuan and said, "Xiaokang, I'll give you the money and go to the store to buy candies."

Bar."

Er Lengzi looked at the money and reached out to take it, but then he retracted, "No, mother said, you can't ask for money from others."

Ma Xiaole tilted his head and thought about it, and felt that it was inappropriate to give money to Erlengzi, so he put it away and said, "Your mother is really kind."

"My mother is not good!" Erlengzi said seriously after hearing this.

Ma Xiaole was very puzzled when he heard this and asked quickly: "Why is your mother so bad?"

"My mother knows how to hit people, so she beat my father."

"Hit your father?" Ma Xiaole didn't understand, how could a good person start a fight? Liu Shuying is not that kind of aggressive woman. "Xiao Kang, do you know why your mother beat your father?" he asked again.

"I was playing with fire sticks outside the night before yesterday. When I went home to sleep, I heard my father say that my mother was unclean. My mother was so angry that she slapped my father on the face, and then slapped him again."

Er Lengzi's tone of voice sounded like he was favoring his father. It's no wonder, because Zhao Ruyi didn't come home often. Every time he came home, he would bring him delicious food and tease him, so he would naturally gain more favor.

.

"Xiao Kang, in my opinion, your father should be beaten. He talks nonsense, so he should be beaten!" Ma Xiaole said.

"No, I think dad is very good and mom shouldn't hit him!"

It's not like being serious with a fool, so Ma Xiaole rolled his eyes and said, "Xiao Kang, as long as you say that your father should be beaten and your mother is right, I will take you to the river to catch fish. It's great!"

As Ma Xiaole spoke, he gestured with both hands, which was half a meter long.

When Er Lengzi saw it, he immediately clapped his hands and said, "Okay, my father should be beaten, but my mother is right!"

Ma Xiaole smiled contentedly, "Okay, I'll take you to catch fish. It's much more enjoyable than catching shrimps!"

As soon as Erlingzi heard Ma Xiaole say "f*ck", he immediately asked him to quench his saliva.

Ma Xiaole asked why, Erlangzi said that you can't say bad words on the first day of the new year, otherwise you will be punished for a year.

After hearing this, Ma Xiaole laughed and said, "Your mother must have said this."

Erlengzi nodded.

At this time, Ma Xiaole suddenly came up with the idea that he really wanted to play with Liu Shuying for a while, but he couldn't do it now. He had to keep his word and take Er Lengzi to catch the fish first.

Taking Er Lengzi with them, they walked all the way to the river. The river was frozen and very thick, so it was okay for people to walk on it. Besides, the water in the river dwindled greatly in winter, and the deepest point was just above the head.

Ma Xiaole asked Erlengzi to follow him holding a big stone, and walked toward the middle of the river. He came to a spot on the light blue ice below and stopped.

"Xiaokang, hit him with a rock and make a hole." Ma Xiaole directed Erlengzi, and he quickly made a hole as big as a washbasin.

Ma Xiaole squatted down, fished out the broken ice from the hole, then wiped his hands and lit a cigarette, and said to Er Lengzi with a smile: "Just wait, a fish will jump up soon."

Erlingzi didn't quite believe it and watched eagerly. Sure enough, within two minutes, he saw several fish heads emerging from the holes in the ice, blowing bubbles and coming out for air.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Erluzi jumped up happily, then squatted down and stretched out his hand to grab it.

"Don't move, don't use your hands, the fish will jump up by itself." Ma Xiaole was confident.

According to past experience, when fish have been under the ice for a long time, they will get excited and confused when they encounter the water surface, and they will jump out of the water to celebrate. However, the hole in the ice is only so big, and the fish will usually fall to the ice as soon as it jumps out.

On the face of it, there is no going back.

Sure enough, in less than half an hour, Erlangzi already had five crucian carp in his hand, each weighing almost two kilograms.

Seeing that it was almost done, Ma Xiaole kicked the broken ice with his feet and pushed it all into the hole in the ice. "Okay, let's stop catching it. If you catch too many, the old fish spirit will get angry. It will be difficult to catch it in the future."

Back on the shore, Erlangzi still had some sense, and said that since two people were catching fish, let's divide them equally, two and a half for each person. After saying this, he found a small stone to smash the fish in pieces.

"Okay, Xiaokang, you take three pieces and I'll take two pieces, so we won't smash them." Ma Xiaole looked very generous and took two pieces home.

As soon as he arrived at the door of his house, Liu Changxi came with a leisurely pace, "Township leader, let's go. It's almost noon. Let's wait at my house first and play cards or something. It's lively." He was very happy that he could become the village chief.

Satisfied, naturally very proud, "Look at the day, it's still snowing non-stop." After saying that, he brushed the snow on his shoulders with his hand, "I'll go to Secretary Fan's house to have a look, you go first, Hongqi

They’re all here!”

"Okay, I'll put the fish down and go." Ma Xiaole took out the cigarette case with one hand, threw one out to Liu Changxi and entered the yard.

Originally, Ma Xiaole wanted to go after Fan Baofa. Generally, senior cadres and people with status are the last to arrive, but he felt that it was boring to compete with Fan Baofa, so he put down the fish and went.

Arriving at Liu Changxi's house, Yao Xiaoyan was busy and working like crazy. Ma Xiaole looked at her energetic and energetic body, remembered Tian Xiao'e's words, and suddenly felt an impulse toward her.

"It's a sin, it's a sin." Ma Xiaole felt that it shouldn't be done, and then secretly said, "This mess can't be done."

As he muttered, Ma Xiaole calmed down, but when he looked up and saw Tian Xiao'e sitting in the stove lighting the fire, he immediately began to mutter. It seemed that the relationship between these two people was really unusual. They did everything together and did nothing.

Dare to say it, no wonder Yao Xiaoyan would tell Tian Xiaoe his secret.

"Ma..." Yao Xiaoyan didn't talk much on weekdays. When she spoke, her face turned red and she was embarrassed. When she saw Ma Xiaole, she wanted to say hello, but she didn't know what to call her, so she just stopped talking.

When Ma Xiaole saw this, he felt that Yao Xiaoyan really had some taste.

"Hey, the township leaders didn't come in when they arrived, they were just drying out in the snow!" At this time, Xu Hongqi, who was playing cards in the house, stretched his neck and shouted.

After hearing this, Ma Xiaole hurriedly walked to the door, stomped the snow on his feet, and walked into the house, "You guys came early. You really enjoy playing cards by the stove!" After saying that, he took out his cigarettes and scattered them in a row.

Xu Hongqi gave up her seat to Ma Xiaole, fought for about half an hour, and then started drinking.

He was drinking quite liberally. He had nothing to do during the Chinese New Year, so he just drank slowly. Ma Xiaole drank happily and said that everyone would still be here tomorrow, no one should be missing. They would all come to his house and he would like to invite them to drink.

Everyone clapped their hands in unison and said that whoever doesn't go is the grandson.

Gu Meiyu, who had always ignored Ma Xiaole, also clapped her hands, and the slap was no more boring than others. Although she had opinions about Ma Xiaole, Ma Xiaole was from the township courtyard after all, so of course she, a village female director, had to fawn over her.

So I will definitely go.

Ma Xiaole looked at Gu Meiyu, his eyes were very provocative and seemed to be teasing.

This made Gu Meiyu a little unhappy. She immediately put down her hand, turned around slightly, tilted her head, and snorted. Ma Xiaole just smiled and said nothing.

At nearly three o'clock in the afternoon, the banquet finally ended, and Ma Xiaole staggered to the stove room.

Yao Xiaoyan and Tian Xiao'e were whispering, and when they saw Ma Xiaole come in, they were both a little panicked.

"What's going on? What did you say? Why did you panic when I came?" Ma Xiaole was a little excited and pointed at Tian Xiao'e, "Tian Xiao'e, are you still not convinced?"

After hearing this, Yao Xiaoyan curled up her neck, stuck out her tongue, and stepped out. Ma Xiaole grabbed her and chuckled, "Xiaoyan, why are you running? Let's listen together. Didn't you and Tian Xiao'e talk about everything?"

"

Hearing this, Yao Xiaoyan lowered her head and blushed without saying anything.

Ma Xiaole saw this scene, let go of Yao Xiaoyan, walked to Tian Xiao'e and asked in a low voice, "Did you tell Yao Xiaoyan about my ability to rise up?"

Tian Xiao'e looked at Ma Xiaole and nodded cautiously, "I meant well. I want to let Xiaoyan know that your thing is very effective, so that she won't talk nonsense to others."

"She dares!"

"She doesn't dare, she doesn't dare, how dare she." Tian Xiao'e stood up in a hurry, pointed outside and whispered, "Don't be so loud, it's not good for others to hear you."

Ma Xiaole finally regained consciousness, turned around and walked out of the kitchen house, leaving Liu Changxi's house with Xu Hongqi and the others.

Liu Changxi was already in bed at this moment, and he was drunk before the banquet was over.

As soon as Ma Xiaole and the others left, Yao Xiaoyan quickly entered the kitchen room, "Sister Tian, ​​what did Ma Xiaole say?"

"He said that if you say he is useless again, he will teach you a lesson!" Tian Xiao'e said half-jokingly.

"What? Sister Tian, ​​look at what you said." Yao Xiaoyan felt embarrassed again and walked aside shyly.

Tian Xiao'e chuckled and raised her eyebrows, smiling that Yao Xiaoyan was shy, but in her heart she said she was not shy, and she would go to the orchard to find Ma Xiaole later.

At this time, in the orchard, besides Ma Xiaole, there was another person.

who?

Liu Shuying.
