Chapter 775: Worship the Bed Mother
Chapter 775
But there is one thing that can only be done by Qiao's mother and Qiao Jiayue, and that is the full moon.
Glutinous rice is ground into a pulp to press off the water, kneaded well, divided into small balls, wrapped with soybean paste, peanuts, sesame sugar, etc., and then slightly flattened.
One is about the size of an adult's palm, flat and round, and then pinched a few bumps on the surface, which means that the child will not lack breast milk.
After steaming, it is dotted with red dots, which looks strange in appearance, but it actually tastes good.
These full moons are mainly used to give away or eat at banquets.
Soon the day of the full moon came, and the chef was already busy in the kitchen and yard.
Yan Danfeng finally sat on full moon and wanted to take a potion bath, and Roll, naturally he also wanted to take a shower and change into new clothes.
Rolling seems to like to play in the water, doesn't cry, and grins, but when he is pulled out of the water, his mouth is deflated and he starts crying.
Qiao's mother quickly wiped him clean, wrapped it and put it in Qiao Hongliang's arms, Qiao Jiayue and Deng Ying saw each other, and took out the small clothes that had been prepared long ago and an auspicious cloud-shaped pendant engraved with "auspicious ruyi" in gold.
Qiao Hongliang took the things and put them aside, then waved at Qiao Jiayue and them with his rolling hand: ", this is from my aunt and uncle, come, say hello to them." ”
Qiao Jiayue said happily: "I wish us a safe and sound, smooth and smooth growth, healthy and happy growth!"
Deng Ying also said a few auspicious words.
Yan Danfeng walked in wearing the clothes specially prepared by Qiao Hongliang, she looked at the rolling who was also wearing new clothes, and smiled with crooked eyebrows.
At this time, where is she still anxious before childbirth, after this month of recuperation, the whole person is white, not to mention, but also plump a lot, and her originally gorgeous face has softened a little.
Qiao Hongliang took out his camera to take pictures of their mother and son.
Qiao's mother smiled and said, "Your third brother is now addicted to taking pictures." ”
"Who made my third sister-in-law and Rolling look good. Qiao Jiayue leaned over, she also wanted to shoot.
In the courtyard, the tables have been propped up, the smell of the kitchen has been wafting out, and the cook and the helpers brought in and out are busy.
Qiao's mother saw that the time was about the same, asked Yan Danfeng to get off the kang, set the kang table straight, and then put the food that had been prepared long ago, including oily rice, duck egg tofu, meat leeks, etc., to worship the bed mother.
They have the custom of "worshipping the bed mother" in the local area, and Qiao's mother is not a local, but she has long kept this in mind when she follows the local customs.
Yan Danfeng looked at it curiously, it was the first time she had heard of it, it was really fun.
Rao is Deng Ying has been in the Alpine Brigade for many years, and it is the first time he has seen it, it turns out that there is still such a custom in the brigade?
But it has to be said that the original intention of this custom is for mothers and newborns, and it is a kind of good wishes for people.
Deng Ying approached Qiao Jiayue's ear and asked in a low voice, "We will do this in the future?"
Qiao Jiayue glanced at Deng Ying, "Follow the customs of the locals, look at your family." ”
Deng Ying's eyes were full of doubts, what were their customs? He didn't know at all, after all, it was completely impossible for him to come into contact with these things in the past.
Qiao Jiayue knew that the customs of the north and the south were different, and she used the customs of the mountain brigade when she went out, but after marrying in, she was dominated by the man's family.
Her concept is still relatively traditional.
After Qiao's mother finished worshipping the bed, and waited until half past eleven, everyone sat down one after another, and the banquet officially opened at twelve o'clock.
Because they are all a family, the dishes are sumptuous, although the presentation is not exquisite, but everyone can eat happily.
There is oily rice on the dining table, which is filled with a laughing pottery urn, which is oily, mainly made of glutinous rice, peanuts, shiitake mushrooms, and dried oysters.
This chef is amazing, just listening to Qiao's mother's description, he made this oily rice full of color and flavor, Qiao Jiayue took a bite, it was really fragrant.
During the meal, Qiao Jiayue glanced at Wu Yumei opposite, she didn't pay attention to it before, but now she took off her mask, and the scars on the edge of her face seemed to have faded.
It can be seen that the effect is still there, but it needs to be persisted for a long time.
It's not that Qiao Jiayue deliberately made the course of treatment so long, but the medicine that works too well, and the process is too painful and painful.
And the scar heals quickly, which is not necessarily a good thing sometimes, after all, some aspects have not been adjusted.
After the meal, Qiao Jiayue accompanied Qiao's mother to prepare things to be given away, mainly oiled rice, boiled eggs smeared with red paper, noodles, biscuits, meat, etc.
Because the main person who eats today is the family, so there is no need to prepare too many portions, mainly the rolling grandfather's house, which is the most important over there, and as for the rest, it will be fate.
Qiao Jiayue asked about Qiao's mother Wu Yumei, and learned that she did it very carefully, and she did not reject her, so she was a very suitable nanny.
She nodded with satisfaction, if Wu Yumei was attentive, she would be equally attentive to her injury.
After the rolling full moon, Qiao's mother and Qiao's father pondered about returning to Quanshi, so they began to help Yan Danfeng and Rolling pack their things and send them to the Yan family together.
Wu Yumei is now very proficient in nanny work, and basically has no other problems.
She is a gentle person and works patiently, Qiao Jiayue silently observed for a while, felt that her previous advice was good, and solved two problems at once.
Qiao Jiayue discussed with Deng Ying, and also planned to go back with Qiao's father and Qiao's mother, and the small courtyard, which had been lively for a month, was about to return to quiet.
As for Qiao Hongzhi, he couldn't go back as originally planned, he said that the matter hadn't been resolved yet, so he didn't feel at ease about leaving.
In this regard, Qiao's father and Qiao's mother did not persuade again, after all, Qiao Hongzhi is an adult, and knowing what to do is the most appropriate.
The night before we went home, we sat down and chatted about the latest winds, especially the self-employed.
There were many people on the train, so they didn't discuss it, and now the house is full of their own families, so they can naturally talk freely.
Almost half a month ago, on July 7, the State Council issued a relevant regulation on self-employment, encouraging unemployed people in urban areas to engage in self-employment, and some service industries and businesses can be leased to individuals.
Although this news has just come out, Qiao's father believes that many people must have thought about it in their hearts.
Father Qiao looked at Lu Zhenping, "Xiaoping, don't you want to open a photo studio?" ”
Although the above refers to the unemployed people in urban areas, the most important thing about this easy handling is that the policy has been liberalized.
The purpose of introducing this policy is obvious, to alleviate the population pressure in cities and towns, after all, there are many unemployed young people, and there will be many problems.
Moreover, the employment of the urban population has been a problem for the past 20 years, otherwise they would not have gone to the mountains and the countryside in those years.
Although we don't know how many such phenomena can be solved by introducing this policy, it is certain that the market economy will definitely become active.
Lu Zhenping nodded excitedly, they had waited for so long, and finally waited for a suitable policy, how could they not be happy?
Father Qiao looked at Qiao Hongzhi again, "If you have other plans, you have to prepare this morning." ”
Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and Qiao's father is too lazy to force him, anyway, his daughter-in-law will clean it up in the future.
