Chapter 199 Firecrackers
Grandpa Jiang didn't criticize anything at all and just watched the fun.
When Jiang Xia says he is smart, he is really smart, and when he says he is confused, he is really confused.
But he knows how to follow his heart.
He is kind to An Ning from the bottom of his heart. This kind of kindness is his subconscious behavior and he is not even aware of it.
After the three families finished eating, it was already around three o'clock in the afternoon.
In the Anning family, everyone is going to sleep for a while. Although there is no electricity at night, everyone is also prepared to abide by the rules of their ancestors and keep vigil.
The sky gradually became dark. At six or seven o'clock, An Ning's family sat around the kitchen. The fire in the stove was flickering. This was their only light.
An Guoqing took a few bricks and built a temporary small stove in the center of the kitchen, with an iron plate underneath and a circle of bricks around it.
Take a few pieces of burning wood from the stove pit, place them in the middle of the bricks, and put a piece of wire mesh on top, and a simple version of the small stove is created.
Jiang Xia also left some firecrackers and said again: "Wait a moment."
Jiang Xia on the other side jumped up and climbed up the wall.
Jiang Xia shouted, and An Ning heard it this time.
An Ning sat on the wall, watching the people below who were preparing to light firecrackers, arguing endlessly.
A puff of black smoke drifted down and landed on An Ning's head.
The peace on the wall is applauded.
"The rules of our ancestors are quite good. Keep vigil all night to keep our good life now, so that the future will be better."
Almost every slice is taken away when it is roasted, and demand exceeds supply.
At this time, Lin Cuihua was standing in the kitchen with her sister-in-law, constantly looking around, mentally preparing herself not to be scared.
An Ning shook her head and said, "What did you say?"
"Wait, I'll cut the meat for you."
"Okay, you guys come first."
"Jump!"
"for you."
The An Ning family members, some ran in from the gate, and some went directly to the wall, all looked at An Ning nervously.
An Ning chuckled and said, "It's okay, nothing happened at all!"
It wandered into the house and came out with Jiang Xia's trouser leg in its teeth. One of its paws touched the stones on the ground and then the yard on the right.
"Hehehe... This figure from behind looks so familiar."
"My mother asked me to tell you that our family is going to set off firecrackers. You can join us."
The second kick, wiping An Ning's hat, rushed over, and exploded.
"Aren't you familiar? They are like brothers."
"peaceful!"
An Sancheng felt comforted as he saw several children around him.
"Come on, come on, here are the sweet potato slices."
An Ning just sits and waits to eat.
"An Ning, your voice is very loud, can't you hear it clearly?"
There were not many small whips, just a few hundred, but they were lit one by one. It felt like it lasted for a long time, crackling until the last one.
"Dahuang, I think you know too much."
"Yes, we will be better."
The only bad thing is the smoke.
The arrogant Mr. Jiang didn't mention it at all. It was because of how much effort he put into it and how many whips he took that he managed to get less than ten little flowers.
Because An Ning also wanted to do it, but it was a pity that Lin Cuihua wouldn't let it go.
"Small flowers, they look great when lit. They were given to me when I bought firecrackers. I don't like them because they make too little noise."
"Dad, don't worry, our life will be better."
"Crackling, crackling, crackling, crackling -"
After An Ning finished speaking, he saw Jiang Xia opposite, gesticulating and talking.
An Ning was speaking in dialect, her ears were buzzing a little, but she was fine.
An Ning asked Lin Cuihua, who was holding sweet potato slices, to look at her and said with a smile: "I found that my daughter is getting better and better at eating it."
The ones in the front were all pretty good, but when it came to the last one, An Guoping went to light the fire, but for some reason, it was knocked down by the two upright kickers.
As soon as An Ning took it over, she heard An Sancheng shouting over there: "It's begun!"
"I like it, thanks."
The whole family, wearing big cotton-padded jackets, sat together and had a small barbecue in a clay oven, semi-open air.
"sister---"
She didn't even realize she was speaking loudly.
Jiang Xia turned around, looked at An Ning and said, "Are you climbing the wall again?"
Lin Cuihua put down the sweet potato slices, took a flashlight, and called An Guoping to go out and help.
"I'll do this!"
She sat upright excitedly and looked at the ground.
Down below, in An's courtyard, An Guoming and An Guoping each went to play kicks.
"Ding----bang----"
The removal of the small whip seems a bit redundant.
An Guoqing took a stick of incense and lit the fuse of the second kicker. When he saw the fire, he ran back.
"It doesn't matter, my mother asked me."
An Ning moved the tip of her nose slightly and asked, "Gunpowder?"
"Here are peanuts."
Jiang Xia came out of the house and handed over a handful of small wires.
The smell of barbecue is very fragrant and it is even more popular.
There were two loud noises in succession, and the whole village heard them.
Jiang Xia was dumbfounded by Da Huang's series of actions. He squatted down seriously and jokingly.
At about ten o'clock, the An family gathered in the yard.
"This is good, this is good, this is really loud."
"The second kick is about to sound, pay attention!"
“Can we have a barbecue?”
Saying two words in unison, Jiang Xia and An Ning, who were very calm, jumped into the yard of Jiang Xia's house almost at the same time.
“Potato chips are also delicious.”
It seems that everyone wants something. She understands boys' happiness very well.
An Ning also threw a stone at the neighbor Jiang's house. The rhubarb in the yard turned its head skillfully and didn't even bark.
In the end, I had no choice but to open the kitchen door.
The second kick went out sideways, like a small cannonball, and rushed towards the two people on the courtyard wall.
The family chatted and warmed hands. Although there was no electricity or any entertainment programs, it still became everyone's favorite vigil activity.
As soon as she finished speaking, under the illumination of the flashlight, everyone felt more nervous?
An Guoming took over the task of barbecue.
A small whip was lit by An Sancheng, crackling in the dark night.
"What's wrong?"
I don’t know when I climbed up the wall of An Ning and witnessed this scene perfectly.
There was deep contempt in Dahuang's eyes. He pushed Jiang Xia's face with one of his front paws and walked away arrogantly.
He even ordered some seafood to grill on top of An Ning's request for meat.
Jiang Xia, who was under the corner, asked anxiously: "Are you okay?"
Don't make the meaning too obvious.
“Enjoyable!”
"Jump!"
Jiang Xia on the side looked at the excited An Ning and felt that what she liked was different.
Peace on the wall, it was the first time I climbed a wall so peacefully.
An Ning patted her ears with one hand, jumped on the spot twice, and felt her ears pop, as if some channel had been opened.
"Is it okay this time?"
An Ning asked, Jiang Xia nodded and said, "The voice is quiet, can you hear it?"
An Ning nodded, and everyone finally felt relieved.
