Chapter 675 Water Banquet
"Mom, this is delicious too. Try this. I brought it from Daliang specially for you."
"By the way, there are also these Mila dates. I happened to see them on the way and thought they tasted good, so I bought two kilograms of them for you."
"Mom, do you like sour food? I also brought you a can of sour food."
The excited Yang child finally no longer had to pretend in front of his biological mother, and he completely changed back to what he should be at his age.
"By the way, there's this!" said Yang child, holding a large bag of silver in his hand and stuffing it into his mother's arms.
"Oh, oh, oh, this is too much, don't take it, enough is enough."
Hearing his own mother say this, Yang child picked up the carriage even more vigorously, as if he wanted to completely empty the carriage.
After Yang's mother stopped him for a long time, Yang finally stopped moving things.
He began to tell his mother about the pain and longing he had experienced over the years, but the other party was deaf. Looking at her confused expression, it was obvious that he could not hear her. This made Yang child feel a lot of words in his heart that he could not say.
"Come on, come on, you just came home and don't know anyone in your family. Let me show you some of them." After saying that, Yang Zizi stood up and pulled Yang Zizi towards the other Dan family members who were watching around.
"This is your second brother."
"Hello, second brother!" Yang kid shouted to the man who was shorter than him.
The second brother seemed very reserved and seemed to be talking nonsense. "Um, you're back? Have you eaten?"
"This is your third brother."
"Hello, third brother." The third brother was much more stable than the second brother. He reached out and patted Yang on the shoulder. "It's great that you have grown so big. When you were a child, you were just like a chicken."
"This is your little sister. We have arranged a baby wedding and we will get married after the new year. Then you, the elder brother, must have a wedding banquet."
"sure."
In addition to his own family, the child's mother also introduced one by one to the Dan family watching the theater around them. These are his seven aunts and eight aunts.
Through his mother's words, Yang child realized that all the Dan family members he had met along the way were related to him.
Moreover, the hierarchy of seniority was so chaotic that he even called a girl who was younger than him his aunt.
But Kid Yang didn't care at all. On the contrary, he was very happy that he was not alone. He still had so many family members in this world.
After introducing the elders, it was time to introduce the younger ones. Mother Yang pulled him towards the back of the boat.
"Then these two are your second brother's dolls and your nephews." She pointed at the two children with bellybands at the stern of the boat and said.
The two nephews were fine except for being a little thin, but the ropes they tied up made Yang feel very unsightly. It looked like he didn't know whether he was raising a child or a dog.
Child Yang felt very awkward when he saw this scene. He couldn't help but glance at the three monkey children beside the carriage and looking around. They were tied up in this way at first.
"Mom, why are you tying up your nephew?" Yang child couldn't help but ask.
However, Child Yang's mother was deaf and still couldn't hear, so she pulled him and continued walking back.
At this time, Jiang Erlang came over and explained his doubts. "You have been on the shore for a long time and don't understand. This is how you raise a child on a boat. If you don't tie him up, he will easily fall into the water. That's how your second uncle is."
"Is that so? Then we can't tie them until they are big, right?"
"It can't be tied until it's big. After the 60s, go to the Dragon King Temple to burn incense and enter the dragon's household, you can let it go."
"Longhu? What is Longhu?"
"We are the dragon households, which means the same thing as entering the ancestral hall and entering the ancestral home on the shore." Yang Erlang touched the tattoo on his body with his hand.
"Oh~" Yang child nodded clearly. It turned out that all the rules mentioned by the ship boss before were not made up, but had a reason.
"Dad! Guess who is here? The fifth brother is back!" Hearing the voice of the second brother on the bow, Yang's heart suddenly tightened, Dad?
When Yang child led his mother back to the bow of the boat, he saw an unsmiling old man. He looked younger than Lu Zhuangyuan, had a thick neck, and also had fish scale tattoos on his hands and body.
"Dad?" Yang kid took a step forward very nervously.
Then he saw his father jumping back to the bow of his own boat from the bow over there, reaching out to roll up his sleeves and checking his shallow birthmark.
"Wow!" His sleeves were rolled down again. Yang's father turned around, looked at the Dan family members on the third and third floors around him and shouted: "My fifth son is back today! I'm so happy! Don't get together at night. ! Our Chi family is setting up a water banquet today!!"
When he heard the cheers from the Dan family members around him, Yang child looked at the little old man next to him with emotion, and the tension in his heart suddenly disappeared.
That night, Yang finally saw what the Dan family's water mat looked like. The boats of each family spread out, leaving a waterway.
The two small canoes were loaded with large and small plates of food, and began to quickly go back and forth around the edge of the waterway, allowing others to take it. This is the water mat.
I don’t know if it’s because the Dan family members don’t go ashore, but there aren’t that many seasonings. The dishes are mainly various kinds of dumplings and boiled vegetables.
There are also some dishes from the shore, but these kinds of dishes disappear the fastest, including the hard pot helmets that Yang Xiaotiao used as dry food on his way.
That night, Child Yang ate more fish than he had eaten in half his life. There were all kinds of fish and seafood that he had never seen before.
Little Yang didn't care what these things were, he just grabbed them and stuffed them into his mouth, just saying one word, "Happy".
He picked up a long conch and sucked on the front. Then he followed his third brother's example and sucked hard on the back of the conch's butt. The meat from both ends had a different taste.
Glancing at his biological father who was following his uncles in the boat canopy, Yang asked the brother next to him: "By the way, third brother, didn't I remember that we have four children in our family? There is one more to go. Where did it go?"
He remembered clearly that the father-in-law was indeed talking to him about four brothers and sisters.
The second brother on the side opened the bloody shellfish, put it in his mouth, took a big bite and replied: "We also have an eldest sister, she is amazing, our family's success depends entirely on her."
"Our eldest sister went to work as a child bride for a wealthy family and often sent money to the family. Otherwise, your second brother and I would really not be able to find a wife."
"Oh, that's it." Hearing this, Child Yang felt a little regretful that he still had one family member he didn't meet this time.
"So where does the eldest sister live? I want to see her." Child Yang thought that if it wasn't far away, he would take a detour.
"No! The eldest sister is going back to her parents' home in the next few days!" said the little girl beside her.
She was a little cautious at first, but when she saw that Yang had a good temper, the little girl gradually relaxed.
"Sister, she even said she wanted to bring me something!"
"Go back to your parents' home? Are you going back to your parents' home to avoid the limelight?" Yang child thought to himself, but he knew what it was like on the shore of Houshu today.
