Chapter 59 Lao Hu joins the army

 The Spring Festival, commonly known as the New Year, is the most important festival of the year.

Regardless of whether they are having a good year or not, people will try their best to live a good year and hope for good fortune in the coming year, so the whole Wangjia Village becomes lively in the early morning, which dissipates the previous heavy atmosphere.<

/p>

Of course, it was not suitable to continue practicing in such a noisy environment. Wang Ye immediately stopped breathing and practicing, got out of bed, washed up, and went to his uncle's house to prepare for help.

During the Chinese New Year, the customs and customs of each place are different, so the steps are also different.

Every year during the New Year in Wangjiacun, they first put up New Year reds, which are things like Spring Festival couplets, door gods, horizontal batches, and New Year pictures.

Next is the New Year's Eve dinner, also called the reunion dinner. It is the highlight of the year. It is not only colorful, but also very important. Before the reunion dinner, worship the gods and ancestors, and then start the meal after the worship ceremony. There are usually

Chicken (meaningful)

, fish (meaning abundant year after year), oysters (meaning good market), fermented vegetables (meaning wealth), yuba (meaning abundance), lotus root (meaning intelligence), lettuce (meaning wealth), sausage (meaning longevity), etc.

Geely.

After the New Year's dinner, the uncle gave Wang Ye a red envelope. Although the money was not much, it was lucky money.

Giving out New Year's money is one of the annual customs. It is said that New Year's money can ward off evil spirits, and the younger generation can spend their first year in peace by receiving the New Year's money.

There are not many entertainment activities in this era, so after the New Year's Eve dinner, everyone gathered around the brazier to warm up, chatting and killing time, and at the same time to keep the New Year alive.

Watching the New Year's Eve is an important activity. The New Year's Fire is lit in the house and the "Sui's Fire" cannot be extinguished, waiting for the moment to bid farewell to the old and welcome the New Year, and welcome the arrival of the New Year.

Therefore, the King of Heaven was also busy on this day and did not go to bed until one o'clock in the morning. It was okay for him, after all, he stayed up late to cultivate immortality in his previous life.

After a sleepless night, the sky was dark, the sun and the moon were dim, and Wang only woke up two hours later than usual, but the sky outside had not been bright for long.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, firecrackers are burned first, which is called "opening firecrackers" to see off the old and welcome the new. After the sound of firecrackers, the ground is filled with red, shining like clouds and brocades, which is called "full of red".

We ate dumplings in the morning, and then we visited every house to pay New Year greetings. It’s not necessary to go to every house, it’s enough to just go to a few close ones.

From the first to the fifteenth day of the lunar month, there was nothing to do every day. Besides practicing kung fu, Wang Ye also chatted with his uncle and his family. In a blink of an eye, it was the sixteenth day of the first lunar month.

"Uncle, please go back. There is no need to send you off again."

After breakfast, Wang Ye planned to return to Gangggangyingzi, but his uncle and the others insisted on seeing him off.

"Let your cousin give you a ride." Although the uncle's face was expressionless, everyone could see the reluctance in his eyes.

"No need, the mountain road is difficult to walk, and it will be troublesome for my cousin to come back." Wang Ye shook his head and said, "Uncle, aunt, cousin, sister-in-law, I'm leaving first. If you don't leave, you won't be able to catch the train."

"Ah Ye, be careful on the road." Auntie held his hand and said.

"Okay." Wang Ye nodded, "Uncle, please go back."

With that said, he turned around and left, walked across the stone bridge and entered the mountain road. He looked back and saw that the uncle's family was still standing there watching Ta.

"Uncle, please go back quickly."

Wang Ye shouted loudly, waved his hand, and continued on his way. His figure quickly disappeared on the mountain road. Compared with when he came back, the mountain road was much easier to walk. In addition, he used the Golden Wild Goose Kung, so it took a lot less time.<

When he arrived at the county seat, Wang also bought a ticket, went straight to the Checheng Railway Station, and then went straight to the ticket hall and bought a train ticket to the capital. The departure time was seven o'clock sharp, so he entered the station directly.

There were many people on the train, and there were many people sitting on the seats, from all over the country, and everyone spoke a local dialect and communicated with each other.

Wang Ye found his seat, put his things away, and sat down. This time he didn't meet anyone from Tomb Raider Notes, and the people on the opposite seat were just ordinary people.

As the sky outside became completely dark, the car gradually became quiet. Some people were sleeping and some were pretending to be asleep.

Wang also closed his eyes, but he was practicing his inner strength. He stayed like this until noon the next day, when he finally arrived in the capital.

After leaving the train station, Wang Ye went straight to the guest house next to him. He had made an appointment with Lao Hu and Fatty to meet at the guest house when they arrived in the capital.

Lao Hu and Fatty are relatively close, and they should have arrived yesterday afternoon.

"Accommodation?" As soon as he entered the guest house, he saw a female staff member behind the counter looking up at him and asking.

Wang Ye shook his head, "No, comrade, I'm looking for someone, could you please help me?"

"Who are you looking for?" the female staff member looked at him and asked.

"Wang Kaixuan and Hu Bayi should have checked in yesterday." Wang also smiled and said the names of Lao Hu and Fatty.

The female staff member flipped through the registration book and said, "Hu Bayi is not there. Wang Kaixuan lives in room 404."

"Why hasn't Lao Hu arrived yet?" Although Wang Ye was puzzled, he still smiled and thanked the female staff member, and then went straight upstairs.

Arriving at Room 404 on the fourth floor, Wang Ye knocked on the door twice and stopped when he heard footsteps in the room.

"Old Wang, you're finally here." The fat man opened the door and gave Wang Ye a bear hug, then called him into the house, "Come on, come on, come in."

"Fat man, is Lao Hu here?" Wang Ye asked while taking off the things on his body.

When the fat man heard what he said, his smiling face turned into a gloomy one, and he let out a long sigh.

"What's wrong?" Wang Ye asked curiously, "What happened to Lao Hu?"

"Lao Hu went to join the army." Fatty said calmly.

"Be a soldier?" Wang Ye murmured.

"On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, he came to Nanjing and told me that his parents had been rehabilitated, so he went to serve as a soldier." Fatty explained.

"It's good to be a soldier. This is Lao Hu's dream all along. We should congratulate him, but it's a pity that we never met Lao Hu again." Wang Ye sighed, but he knew that Lao Hu had been a soldier for ten years.

How many more decades are there in life?

"Lao Hu asked me to bring you a message, saying that one day our three brothers will reunite one day, and he will write to us after he settles down." Fatty said.

"Yes." Wang Ye nodded, "But we are the only two brothers left in this laid-off camp."

"Yes, now we are the only two brothers left to depend on each other." The fat man sighed.

"Let's go, let's go have a meal and then return to Gangggangyingzi." Wang Ye greeted the fat man, and then the two of them went downstairs.
