Large fireworks are suitable for viewing, while small fireworks are fun.

After all, the big fireworks are too far away, and they have a sense of ritual but lack participation. Small fireworks are different. Everyone can set them off, and then enjoy their blooming up close, take photos and videos calmly, and you can see the other person's face through the fireworks.

The most beautiful one is the cylindrical "fire tree and silver flowers", which burst out sparks all over the yard, colorful and crackling.

In Zheng Zhilan's eyes, everything was flashing light and shadow. She imagined it and listened carefully to the sounds. When she heard Zhou Li or Huai Xu beside her talking with a smile, she would also smile gently.

But Zhou Li remembered that he only bought four buckets of "fire tree and silver flowers", but for some reason he put one bucket after another.

I can't finish other small fireworks either.

Zheng Zhilan prefers a small firework that will ignite and throw it around on the ground. It costs an average of 50 cents per person and will burst out colorful light. She set one and stood by her and watched it light ignite, and waited for the light to go out and then set another one.

This is probably the fireworks she saw the clearest.

"It looks so good." she said.

"It's almost ten o'clock," Zhou Li said.

"It's time to sleep." Zheng Zhilan threw out the last rotor firework and watched it trance.

"Do you still want to play again?" Zhou Li had a headache. "If you put it down, Huai Xu will emptie the supermarket."

"No more fun."

"What are you talking nonsense?" Huai Xu clearly captured the words that were not good for him even in the noise, "I get some of them in every family!"

“…”

No matter how beautiful the fireworks are, they will be when they are cold. The yard quickly returns to darkness and quietness. With the creaking sound of the door, a piece of light at the door also narrows rapidly and disappears.

After saying good night to each other, Zhou Li returned to his room, Zheng Zhilan took out the money and asked Huai Xu to send it to the supermarkets he visited.

Huai Xu was obviously reluctant. He was a habitual thief, but he agreed. He did not ask for Zheng Zhilan's money and promised that he would secretly go to scan the code to pay in the middle of the night.

He didn't say how much to pay.

When he returned to the room, the old monster was still unsatisfied and said to Zhou Li in a low voice: "We will go back to Yancheng tomorrow. Can we still set it off? I think that big fireworks are expensive and expensive. It is not as fun as small fireworks. We can only buy small fireworks..."

Zhou Li did not answer and focused on brewing sleepiness.

The next day, New Year's Eve.

Zheng Zhilan got up very early to make dumplings. Zhou Li wanted to leave early. He wanted to go back to have lunch. It was easy to get traffic jams during the Chinese New Year. After all, he was not as brave as Brother Nan and dared to go on the highway. But when he got up, Zheng Zhilan was already boiling water.

"Why don't you call me?" Zhou Li walked to the stove.

"I woke up early and got used to it." Zheng Zhilan felt like she got up and gave up her seat for him, "Is it cold?"

"A little bit, don't you sit here and roast the fire?"

"I'm going to prepare dumplings."

The fermented rice dumplings, two poached eggs in a bowl, are just as sweet as you can. You can warm your whole body when you take a bite and dispel the chills of the morning.

After eating, Zhou Li went back to the room to clean up the house, and then went downstairs with his backpack on his back.

Zheng Zhilan sat in the main hall waiting for him.

"Happy New Year," she said.

"Happy New Year." Zhou Li also said.

"I prepared a can of kimchi for you. I think you like it. The sealed ones will not sprinkle." Because of the sentence "Happy New Year", the little girl had a faint smile on her face, but she felt a little embarrassed when she said this, "I don't have anything to bring here. I think sausages and bacon are not strange, so don't dislike them."

"Thank you so much." Zhou Li thought for a while, "I guess this will become the most popular dish on the table in the past few days of the New Year."

"Thank you so much." Huai Xu repeated happily, "I guess I can eat at most one or two pieces."

"Ride down the mountain, right? Dahuang will bring it back." The smile on the girl's face increased a little more and it was hard to check.

"No need, go down the mountain faster by yourself."

"good."

Zheng Zhilan raised her hand and waved her to him.

Zhou Li also waved his hand, then turned around and stepped out of the courtyard. The village houses were intertwined. He disappeared from Zheng Zhilan's sight with just one corner along the twisting wet path in the middle.

...

Xiaoping Town.

There were actually many people going to the market, and most of the shops and restaurants on both sides of the street were open, with people sitting inside. A few days ago, Lao Zhou's words seemed to have already come to light, but many people seemed to have not reacted.

The Maocai Shop is closed.

Zhou Li looked at Huai Xu who seemed to have suffered a major blow and gloated: "It's no wonder I am, this is God's will!"

Huai Xu:...

There was indeed a traffic jam on the road, especially in the villages along the way. New Year's Eve is a scene, the streets are already narrow, and motorcycles occupy the road.

It was already noon to arrive in Yancheng.

Zhou Li changed Huai Xu and drove the car straight back to another house in the city center, not just for parking. Since yesterday, the rest of the Zhou family have returned to this house, because according to the agreement between Aunt Jiang and her ex-husband, Zhu Shuang's twin sisters will come to Aunt Jiang for the New Year's Eve this year. Last year, Zhu Shuang was here, and the two siblings came in rotation.

This house is bigger than the one next to the school, and there is one more room.

As for Zhu Shuang’s sister...

Zhou Li is really unfamiliar with him. On average, he only sees him once every two years. Each time he is at least two days, and at most four or five days, she will return to Jinguan. Usually, Aunt Jiang takes Zhu Shuang to Jinguan to see her. Zhou Li even forgot what her name is.

Anyway, it is not called Zhu Er, Zhu Er, Zhu Er and other things.

It seems there is a nickname, what is it called...

"Dongdongdongdongdong."

With a click, the door opened.

Aunt Jiang smiled brightly and said to him: "I'm back, is it traffic jam on the road?"

“Some.”

"My sister is here too."

Then a beautiful little girl came out obediently and called out to her brother. Zhou Li also nodded and said, "Hello." I remember that they have been saying hello like this every year in recent years.

Zhou Li put down his bag, took out a can of kimchi from it, and said, "My friend's house is delicious, I brought some back."

"Pickle?"

"Yes." Zhou Li thought about it and added seriously, "It's really delicious and can relieve the tiredness."

"It's time to eat some tea during the Chinese New Year."

"right."

"It's almost time to eat."

"Um."

In previous years, their New Year's dinner was all settled in a hotel. At that time, Aunt Jiang was still working and her cooking skills were far from so good. It was because Zhou Li and Zhu Shuang were in the third year of high school these two days, so she resigned and took care of them at home, so her cooking skills improved by leaps and bounds.

Zhou Li felt that the New Year’s dinner at home was more warm than in a hotel, although it might be a bit less delicious.

While they were having a meal, Huai Xu wandered around the house, muttering, what should I do if this house is more luxurious, there is only one bed in your room, and the community environment is better...

In fact, Zhou Li still prefers that old house, which has a more lifelike atmosphere there, which may be the reason why he has lived for a longer time.
