Chapter 452: Huangjia Village's New Year
In Huangjia Village, as the New Year is approaching, the whole village is decorated with lights and is full of joy and the festive atmosphere of the New Year.
Huang Xiaoer was very excited when he received the news that the local soldiers were on vacation and going home. These were all elites from his Huangjia Village, and he was the one who sent them to Xianyaling for selection and passed them.
Needless to say, a grand ceremony must be held. With all the arrangements, the whole village became more and more lively.
On the twenty-sixth day of the lunar year, Huang Xiaoer saw the soldiers arriving at the village entrance and hurriedly asked the gong and drum team to take the stage.
At this time, Huang Dayong, a new member of the special forces, walked in the front wearing a handsome special forces uniform. Huang Xiaoer was so happy that his eyes narrowed into slits. This was his most proud soldier.
The special forces have very high recruitment standards. Huang Dayong is the only one from Huangjia Village who can join the special forces, and he is the first one in such a long time. It would be strange if Huang Xiaoer was not happy.
"Dayong, you put us brothers outshined by your military uniform."
"Yeah, Dayong, you have to teach us a few moves later, otherwise the brothers won't agree!"
This time, more than a dozen people came back from Huangjia Village. When they saw this situation, they immediately became unhappy and started shouting, which made Huang Dayong very helpless.
Huang Xiaoer saw this and immediately stepped forward and said, "Alright, you little brats are just pretending I don't exist, right?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, the whole team fell silent.
This guy is the big brother. He led the militia to fight against the Japanese and then sent them out. His prestige in the whole village is not even matched by the clan leader.
"Waiter, the food in the village is ready. Let the young people go into the village first!"
When Huang Xiaoer heard that it was the clan leader who spoke, he immediately smiled and said, "I'm very happy that everyone can come back to celebrate the New Year. Come into the village. This time, to welcome you, I have prepared a big fat pig at my own expense."
As soon as these words were spoken, the returning soldiers were delighted and ran towards the village shouting, not even caring about the welcome ceremony. They were all young men in their twenties, and studying was not as important as eating.
Huang Xiaoer shook his head and looked at Huang Dayong beside him and said, "Let's go in too. I guess your Erni is waiting."
When Huang Dayong heard this, a blush suddenly appeared on his dark face.
The independent brigade does not prohibit marriage. Huang Dayong was actually engaged before joining the special forces. In rural areas, the only difference between engagement and marriage is a process.
At the entrance of the village, Dayong's mother was also talking to Erni's mother.
"Er Ni's mother, why don't we take care of the two kids' affairs after the New Year? Fighting the Japanese is important, but we can't delay the continuation of the family line, right?"
It is said that the more a mother-in-law sees her son-in-law, the happier she becomes. Er Ni's mother was obviously very satisfied with Dayong as her son-in-law. Upon hearing this, she immediately nodded and said, "Mother Dayong, you guys go pick a time and we can have a banquet in the village."
The meeting between the two confirmed the matter. At this time, Dayong did not know that he would become the groom when he came back...
As time approached noon, the whole village began to feast.
There are not so many particular things in the countryside. They just stew big bones and fat meat in a pot, and pair it with pork and cabbage dumplings. It's delicious.
Although Huangjia Village had experienced two bumper harvests, it was still difficult for everyone to afford meat, so naturally everyone had a full belly after this meal.
After dinner, the returning soldiers began to tell the battle stories they heard from their squad leader, which made the group of young people very excited and they all clamored to join the independent brigade to fight the Japanese.
It is just as Gu Changfeng said, a soldier who returns home to visit his family is a banner and his influence is far-reaching.
Time flies and it is New Year's Eve, and every household begins to celebrate the New Year.
Huang Dayong finally had some free time and stayed at home to help his mother make dumplings.
As the only person from Huangjia Village selected to join the special forces, he has a lot to do these days. He is instructing the soldiers who came back with him and teaching the young people in the village.
"Mom, why are you crying again?"
Huang Dayong, who was concentrating on rolling out the dumpling wrappers, suddenly noticed that his mother's eyes were wet, and he was a little at a loss.
"Mom, you're missing Dad again!"
Huang Dayong's sister San Ya, who was standing next to her, looked at her mother and asked.
Aunt Huang wiped her eyes with the corner of her clothes, sighed and said, "Oh, if only your father were here, he has rarely eaten meat in his life!"
Huang Dayong looked at his mother and said seriously, "Mom, don't be sad. I will avenge Dad and the entire Huangjia Village until the Japanese are beaten so badly that they dare not bully us again."
As a member of the special forces, he knew too well the destructive power of the special forces. Although they had not carried out any major missions recently, small-scale battles had never stopped.
Special warfare training is not just about training, actual combat experience is equally important, so he has the confidence to say this.
Aunt Huang looked at her son, nodded heavily and said, "Mom believes in you. You and those young soldiers are all great. Your father wouldn't have waited until this moment, otherwise..."
He sighed again.
In fact, since Gu Changfeng led the team here, their biggest crisis was the last time the Japanese surrounded Gaojia Town, but it basically did not affect the civilians like them, and some of them only sacrificed the militia soldiers.
Her husband was just unlucky. When Ergouzi and the Japanese came to collect grain, he said a few too many words and was beaten to death in the village by the Japanese. Otherwise, he might not have died if he had waited until now.
Huang Dayong knew how his father died, so he always had hatred for the devils and Er Gouzi in his heart.
They are also extremely hardworking in training. Otherwise, given the strictness of the special forces, even if they are selected, they may not be able to stay.
Aunt Huang saw her son fall silent, and immediately realized that what she said was not the right time. She immediately changed her smile and said, "Okay, okay, let's not talk about this during the New Year. From now on, you follow Brigadier General Gu and fight the Japanese well!"
Huang Dayong came to his senses when he heard his mother say that, and said "OK" with a smile.
This is his promise, the promise of a special operations sniper, and it will mean that a large number of devils will die under his gun...
"By the way, Yongzi, you and Erni should get married after the New Year. I'll go to the town to ask Blind Liu to do some divination after the New Year."
Aunt Huang calmed her son down with just one word, and his face turned rosy.
Huang Dayong was obviously embarrassed to say this in front of a young man. After holding it in for a long time, Huang Dayong said with a red face: "Mom, you guys can decide this."
When San Ya, who was standing next to him, heard what he said, she immediately laughed so hard that she couldn't stop smiling. She started to make fun of her elder brother, which made Huang Dayong's face become even redder.
Aunt Huang looked at them with a smile, and without saying anything more, she turned around and started making dumplings.
The New Year's Eve dinner was celebrated in the village with the sound of firecrackers...
