    Crackling, there was a sound outside. When he heard this sound, Cocoran suddenly sat up from the kang, and went to find his gun.  As a pilot, she also carries a gun with her.  It was a common American m1911 pistol.  Although the grip of this pistol is a little big, but Cochrane's fingers are also very slender, so there is no problem holding this gun. She likes to put this gun on herself when she usually sleeps.  under the pillow.  This makes it easy to take out the pistol at any time, but now when she took out the gun, she didn't feel her own gun under the pillow, and she felt a burst of tension in her heart.  She then went to look to the side again, and only then did she see two children sleeping next to her.  This is the earth kang in the village, not the wooden bed she often sleeps on.

    Only then did Cochran get busy.  I was not in the dormitory of the aviation base, but at the home of Li Yunlong, the head of the Independent Cavalry Regiment of the Eighth Route Army. She was invited to celebrate the New Year with Qin Baoshan and his wife Wei Shuqin, but now Cochrane  He only saw the two children sleeping on the kang, but no one else.  This made Cochran very strange.  Just when she was about to sit up from the kang and look for someone, her consciousness gradually became clearer, and the sound from outside gradually came to her ears.  It was the voice of two women talking, and the voice was relatively soft, so Cochran couldn't hear what was being said, and she knew very little Chinese, so she couldn't hear anything at all.  But Cochran could tell that it should be the voices of Wei Shuqin and Zhao Xiuqin.  At the same time, she could also hear the sound of beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, and beep. It was the sound of burning firewood. Is it already dawn?  She raised her head and looked outside. Through the window paper, she could see that it was pitch black outside, and it was still dark.

    Cochran was a little curious, but she couldn't sleep anymore, so she sat up from the kang.  When going to bed, she just took off her shoes and outer coat, and did not take off other clothes.  So after sitting up, as long as you put on your shoes and coat, you can go outside.  When she walked out, she heard crackling noises coming from outside.  Just now, she was woken up by such a sound. At first, she thought it was a battle, but now she understood it. It should be a child setting off firecrackers.

    Cochran raised the curtain and looked outside, only to see Wei Shuqin and Zhao Xiuqin lighting a fire.  She couldn't help asking curiously: "Why are you cooking again so early? Didn't you stay up late last night?"

    Zhao Xiuqin couldn't understand what the other party was saying, but Wei Shuqin was able to understand English a long time ago. She said to Cochrane, "I stayed up late last night, and it's time to pay New Year's greetings this morning. Someone may come to pay New Year's greetings in a while, so I prepare  There is a pot of water, and when someone comes, make tea for them. If children come, then give them a few candies."

    Hearing Wei Shuqin's words.  Cochrane asked curiously, "What is a New Year's greeting?"

    "We have to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the new year. This is a tradition of our Chinese New Year. You will know later."

    Sure enough, it didn't take long, and the sky was not yet bright.  The children here started to act one after another, and there was no adult to lead them, and the children acted alone.  Many children came to Zhao Xiuqin's house to pay New Year's greetings.  Zhao Xiuqin gave them a few candies, and they left contented.

    Cochrane was very curious about the New Year's greetings of those children, and couldn't help but learn it. In this way, time passed by a little bit, and the east has gradually brightened, and Cochrane also realized something  , and said to Wei Shuqin: "What about them, why didn't you see them? Are they also paying New Year's greetings?"

    Although Cochran did not explicitly point it out, she must be referring to Qin Baoshan and Li Yunlong.  Hearing her words, Wei Shuqin said: "You should know this. They also have New Year's greetings in their army. They have to pay New Year's greetings to their leaders and possibly others, so they left long ago."

    This is the first time Wei Shuqin has lied.  Of course she knew that Qin Baoshan and the others did not go to pay New Year's greetings, but went to perform a mission, but now facing Cochran, that's all she can say.  However, Wei Shuqin was not wrong. Qin Baoshan and the others really went to pay New Year's greetings, but only for the little devil, and they didn't raise their hands to greet the New Year.  Instead, greet directly with guns.

    Cochrane nodded and understood Wei Shuqin's answer. However, she also felt that it was meaningless to stay here. She said to Wei Shuqin: "If this is the case, then I will go back."

    Cochrane can't go back. If she goes back, she will definitely find that the three machine gun assault vehicles have been driven away by Li Yunlong and the others.  So Wei Shuqin could only hold Cochran back, and said to her: "Since you are here, don't leave in such a hurry. The Chinese New Year is very lively here. There are also spontaneous groups in the village.The stilt team and lion dance team weaving here are very lively, and you must not see them in the United States.  "

    In fact, the main Chinese New Year activities on the first day of the new year are held by each household. The stilt team and the lion dance team will not come out until the second or third day of the new year, but now Wei Shuqin must use this reason to give Cochrane  stay.  So after finishing talking, Wei Shuqin said to Zhao Xiuqin: "Go and see our stilt team and lion dance team. What time do you come out to perform today? Let's take Cochran to see the excitement."

    Zhao Xiuqin nodded knowingly immediately, and ran out to find someone to arrange.

    Hearing that there was such excitement to watch, Cochran stayed.  She was still very interested in what Wei Shuqin said.  China has a long history and cultural tradition, and many interesting things have been left behind.  This kind of stilt team and lion dance team is the product of inheriting the previous history and culture.

    In contrast, the United States has only a history of more than two hundred years, and they do not have any historical precipitation, so many of them are very interested in these things in China.

    "I didn't expect that they could walk around on wooden sticks. It's so interesting." Cochran said: "I want to try it too."

    Seeing those people on stilts who are more than one meter taller than themselves, Cochran became interested.

    "Of course it's no problem. It's the same as walking normally. You can step on a half-meter stilt to practice." Wei Shuqin said.

    Relying on these things, Wei Shuqin managed to keep Cochrane.  At the same time, she was also anxiously waiting for news from Qin Baoshan and the others, wondering how they were doing in Taiyuan City?  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
