30. Laba
This year's snow came very early, and Qin Si'an didn't have time to put it on, her mother bought her a new ivory-white plain makeup jacket, and the world had become covered in silver overnight. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info only to see a white expanse between heaven and earth, snowflakes falling from the sky one after another, like a white tent pulled up around.
Crystal Xiaoice shoots are hung on the eaves, giving the eaves a delicate lace. The boundary between heaven and earth is not so clear, it is all white. The whole world is spotless and crystal clear. The charming little snowflakes, as pure and lovely as white cherubs, come from the desirable and magical sky, in a thousand forms, and are extremely beautiful.
Qin Ji has been closed for some time, since the last time Qingping County came back, Qin Si'an thought for a long time, and finally made this decision, when this year is over, Qin Siping finishes the exam, she plans to move her family to the capital.
A few days ago, Aunt Santang had already sent a wedding card, and in the end, the marriage of Qin Simeng and Sun Fugui was completed, and the wedding date was set for the eighteenth day of the lunar month. Since Qin Si'an's analysis that day, her third aunt has not come again, I heard her mother say that this marriage was Qin Simeng nodded and agreed first, Sun Fugui met with her a few times, I don't know how Sun Fugui poured the ecstasy soup, Qin Simeng agreed to marry him again.
Since the parties have no opinions, even if her parents are unwilling, there is no other way, after all, the girl's innocent body is gone, and the back half of her body is ruined.
In the blink of an eye, there are two days to go to Laba, because Qin Siping is a male in the family, early, the village arranged for someone to come over to inform that Qin Baoyuan would take Qin Siping home to worship his ancestors on the day of Laba. Qin Si'an has always been worried about the fact that only men can participate in ancestor worship, although he knows where the ancestral hall in the village is, he has never entered it once, let alone where the ancestral tomb is.
Fortunately, this year, because her brother wants to take a scientific examination, her mother-in-law plans to go to Fuguang Temple in Shifang Mountain on the day of Laba, and eat Laba porridge given by the temple, and it is said that the Dharma Treasure Festival Buddha will be held on the same day. That way, she can go out and play.
As soon as Laba morning, she heard the sound of firecrackers in Ping Pong, Qin Si'an just got up, her mother had already boiled Laba porridge, this Laba porridge, although the materials used in different regions are different, but basically include rice, millet, glutinous rice, sorghum rice, purple rice, barley and other cereals, soybeans, red beans, mung beans, kidney beans, cowpeas and other beans, red dates, peanuts, lotus seeds, wolfberries, chestnuts, walnut kernels, almonds, longan, raisins, ginkgo and other dried fruits.
This Laba porridge is not only a seasonal delicacy, but also a good health product, especially suitable for maintaining the spleen and stomach in cold weather. Although Qin Baoyuan and Qin Si returned to the village before dawn, she still cooked a lot, and before Qin Si'an got up, she first sent some to the neighbors, and then after the family ate, after saying something to Qin Si'an's grandparents, they hired a carriage and went to Fuguang Temple.
The cold brought by winter spreads everywhere, even when it is sunny and windless, the weather is dry and cold.
The morning fog has dispersed a little, and the land was shrouded in milky white fog before, which is no longer white, and the morning sun, warm, has paved the world with a layer of gold.
The bare trees stood pitifully on both sides of the road, and the grass that had once been vibrant finally could no longer support it, and withered yellow. Qin Si'an sat in the carriage for a while, and the sleepiness couldn't help but sweep over again, this was already her old problem, whether it was a car or a plane, she would be sleepy as soon as she got up. Meng Niang saw her daughter's sleepy appearance, and hurriedly adjusted her posture and asked her to lean on her lap and take a nap.
In a daze, the carriage stopped, Qin Si'an rubbed his eyes, "It's here!"
Meng Niang looked at her daughter's ignorant sleeping face, she felt very cute, and couldn't help pinching, her daughter has been wise since she was a child, and it is rare to see her look so stupid.
"No, the driver said someone stopped the car. Meng Niang explained as she lifted the curtain and looked out.
Not far from the carriage, there stood a middle-aged man wearing a royal blue background calamus pattern Hangzhou silk straight jacket, covered with a Buddha's head blue plain face coat, with a beard on his face, and his cheeks were slightly red in the cold wind, he stopped the carriage and made a gesture, "Forgive me for being offended by the Tang Dynasty, it is really windy and cold, I don't know if I can take it on the next trip?"
Meng Niang saw that it was a middle-aged man, so she lowered the car curtain, although the peasant family is not as suspicious as the big family, but there should be a number of courtesies, especially when the other party is dressed very well.
"I can't make a decision on this, it depends on the employer's opinion. The coachman said.
Qin Si'an lifted the curtain slightly and looked at the person who came carefully.
"Where is the gentleman going?" Meng Niang asked.
"Go to Fuguang Temple to meet friends. The man's eyebrows were crooked, and his smile was gentle.
"It just so happens that we are also going to Fuguang Temple, so we can take Mr. a ride. Qin Si'an saw that the other party was dressed luxuriously, and his gestures were full of elegance, and he intuitively felt that he was not a bad person.
"Thank you so much. Hearing that it was a little girl who answered him this time, the middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and then his face was slightly happy. Hurriedly thanked him.
"No thanks, just a gesture. It's just that the car is full of female dependents, so I can only bother Mr. to sit outside. Qin Si'an saw that his mother didn't mean to speak, so he yawned.
The man hurriedly shook again. After thanking him, he sat down next to the coachman.
There was no word in the car, only the sound of wheels.
After a while, the words of the coachman came from outside the curtain, to the middle-aged man.
"It's freezing this day, why are you alone on the road, you can't go to the village in front of you, you can't go to the store in the back. “
"Heh-I was originally sharing a ride with my friends, who would have thought that I would lose a few pieces in a game of chess, and I would be thrown down, ashamed and ......ashamed," the middle-aged man's face was slightly confused, and he didn't expect that the other party would really let the guards drop him, which was really embarrassing.
"Poof-" Qin Si'an couldn't hold back for a long time, but still laughed, this middle-aged uncle is really funny!
"Your friend is too unkind, what to do if you get sick in this winter, it's really ruthless. The coachman began to hold grievances for the middle-aged uncle.
"I think your friend is a wonderful person!" Qin Si'an smiled.
"My friend easily doesn't play against anyone, and before the game, I was reminded that I brought it on myself, and it really has nothing to do with him. The middle-aged man sighed helplessly, this is the most terrible thing, knowing that he will be kicked out of the car if he loses, but he is itchy and unbearable. Alas, it's hard to put into words.
