Alpine Orchard - Chapter 172

[Chapter 172 New Year’s Day]

Ye Mo drives, Lin Shan sits in the passenger seat…

Xiao Mian and her mother sit in the back seat.

“Dear family, we’re leaving. Have you set off yet?” Lin Shan sat in the co-pilot, tapped the voice message from Dad Ye in the group with his mobile phone, and replied, “Let’s go.”

“Then we’ll see you at Zhonghua Temple.”

” You just set off, and we are all stuck on the road.” The second uncle sent a voice message: “We are still six kilometers away from Zhonghua Temple, and there is a traffic jam on the road.”

“Is the traffic jam serious?” The third uncle sent a message.

“Cars on the road are like ants moving house.” In the

back seat, Lin Xiaomian was also chatting on WeChat.

“Sheep, where are you going to play today?” Wang Rong sent a message.

“Go to Zhonghua Temple.” Lin Xiaomian sent a message: “How about you?”

“I don’t know where to play.”

“Xiao Mian, where are you going to play today?” Lin Xiaolin’s voice.

“Zhonghua Temple, are you coming?” Lin Xiaomian asked.

“It’s too far away.”

Zhonghua Temple seems to belong to the jurisdiction of Chuncheng. However, Hongshan Town is only twenty kilometers away from Zhonghua Temple.

At the foot of the mountain, Ye Mo picked up Miss Xiaomian and uncle.

At home during the Chinese New Year, they have nothing to do, so they go to play together.

Walk from the national highway towards Spring City, come to the middle of the mountain, and turn into a rural road. Two-lane rural road, not far from the entrance, the car is blocked.

“Second brother, we have entered the Zhonghua Temple section, have you arrived yet?” Lin Shan asked.

“It’s three kilometers away from the temple, and we’re still blocked. How many kilometers away are you?”

“7 kilometers.”

Dad Ye sent a voice: “We are 7.4 kilometers away, and we are just behind you.” The

car moved slowly and wobbled.

The second uncle and the others parked the car at the farmyard dam about 2 kilometers away from the temple.

Zhonghua Temple is the largest temple in the vicinity. During Chinese New Year, there are especially many people. Households and courtyards close to the temple have been turned into temporary parking lots…

Ye Mo and the others drove for half an hour for a few kilometers. In the end, the car didn’t drive in, and stopped in the farmyard not far from the second uncle’s car. For a car, the parking fee of 30 yuan is more expensive than the city parking fee.

There are many cars and people on the road. There are various stalls on the side of the road…

Lin Xiaomian went to buy a couple of sugarcane, waiting for Father Ye, Third Uncle and the others to come, then go forward and find Third Uncle and the others.

It is close to the temple, crowded with people, even more lively than going to the New Year’s market when I was a child.

There are many incense sellers outside the temple, Ye Mo and the others each bought two. The big incense in the temple is more than one meter long.

“Turn a candy ball.” Ye Ran saw the sugar man, looked at Chen Chen, and said.

Chen Chen was the first to take out his mobile phone and started to scan the QR code: “Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, do you want to transfer sugar balls?”

Zhang Xia waved her hand.

Lin Xiaomian nodded…

the two turned the sugar balls, and Ye Ran turned to a phoenix. In the sugar circle, the sugar figures in a corner are the best… They are Phoenix, Xiaolong, Dalong and Flower Basket.

Among them, the workmanship of the flower basket is the most beautiful…

Lin Xiaomian turned to a little bird, and then asked the boss to make a ‘rake candy’. It’s like a lollipop…

Zhonghua Temple is very big.

Entering the gate is a steep stone ladder, and a group of people climbed up, and there is a mountain temple on the top… there are several steps behind the mountain temple.

On the last step is Zhonghua Temple.

Ye Mo and the others went up with the crowd, lit incense, and bowed to the Bodhisattva

Ye Mo muttered: “Bless me this year will be smooth and make a fortune.”

“You want to get rich every day.” Mom Glaring at him, he also bowed to the Bodhisattva: “May our family be healthy, safe, and family harmonious…” When

I went out to visit the temple, I just burned incense and worshiped the Bodhisattva.

The scenery of Zhonghua Temple is also very good, but today, there are too many people to visit.

Come to the temple and go back, it’s almost noon.

Hongshan Town was deserted, only a few supermarkets were open…

Back in Gaoshanping, Lin Xiaomian washed rice and cooked rice, Ye Mo washed bacon and sausages, and cooked two baby vegetables together.

At noon, everyone had a simple meal at Ye Mo’s side.

Miss Xiaomian and the others didn’t come over at noon.

After lunch, I played mahjong and fought landlords.

Father Ye, Second Uncle, Third Uncle, and Xiao Mian’s father, they all liked the Landlord of Seven, so they pulled Ye Mo, Chen Chen, and Ye Zhi over to form seven people.

Ye Mo often watched his father play with them, and he understood the general rules, but he didn’t know some details: “How do you call it a hidden landlord?” Ye Mo asked, his game is a big landlord.

“Hidden landlords call 10 or less. For example, if you have a five of hearts, you can call five of hearts, and then call a card in your hand…you can only call the card in your hand.” Papa Ye said.

“What if I have two Fives of Hearts?”

“You can also call. In this case, you will be a big landlord, plus a hidden landlord.” Dad Ye said, “You can also choose to play six, provided you have two of the same card in your hand.” The small cards of suits. By the way, you can only pick up the landlord card after calling out to hide the landlord.”

Four kings are the biggest, and then eight cards are bombs… Three kings can play six cards… seven cards The bomb can hit the Three Kings…

Then, other rules are the same as for three-person landlords.

As a big landlord, if Ye Mo’s cards are not particularly good, before the hidden landlord reveals his identity, he can only judge who is the hidden landlord from the actions of everyone playing cards…

At the same time, the hidden landlord can also play many tricks.

The big landlord is Ming’s identity, and the remaining six families, two of them are hidden landlords. This kind of game is very interesting to play.

In the first round, Ye Mo judged that Chen Chen was a hidden landlord.

But there was another hidden landlord who was not determined… The hidden landlord Lin Shan wanted to steal cards, but Ye Mo held him down, and then lost the game.

“Why are you hitting me? I still have a pair of four…” Lin Shan was speechless. He sat in Ye Mo’s next house, if Ye Mo didn’t beat him, he would have won the game.   ” I

didn’t know that you were a hidden landlord.” Ye Mo looked carefully at the future father-in-law, and said, “You have hit me several times.”

It’s to prevent playing low cards later.”

Father Ye chuckled: “There are three bombs in this game, fifteen yuan. Give money, give money… Dadi mainly gives double.”

Ye Mo took out the change and threw it on the table .

Chen Chen looked at Ye Mo and said, “I already saw that Uncle Lin was with us, but you didn’t?”

“I thought Third Uncle was with us.”

Father Chen laughed loudly and said: “My bad hand, I’m sorry… I’ll let you pass.”

Lin Shan took out the money, looked at Ye Mo, and said with a smile, “You’re so stupid.

” It’s complicated.” Ye Mo said.

“I just like to play with a rookie like you.” The second uncle said with a smile.
