Chapter 309 Joy to move to a new home

1.

On Saturday, October 26th, Spring and Xu Dan have been busy with the decoration of the new house at school, and Wu Xiao and Wang Li have not gone home, and have been busy helping Spring and Xu Dan with their work.

Yesterday afternoon, Xu Dan, accompanied by his two elder sisters, had already gone to several stores to buy pots and pans, gas canisters, and other cooking utensils; Simmons had already booked a bed and said that he would send it this morning; Xu Dan also took it upon himself to order two wardrobes, TV cabinets, coffee tables, sofas, etc., all of which were outside the spring purchase plan, and originally wanted to wait for the salary to be paid and then slowly managed, but now Xu Dan has purchased it in one step, and it is also Xu Dan's savings that he has spent, and he really can't say anything in the spring.

Slowly put the things sent in place and settled them down little by little, it was already more than eleven o'clock at noon, and in the spring, I took Xu Dan, Wu Xiao and Wang Li to the restaurant of Xu Dan's eldest sister to have a light meal, because I had to work in the afternoon, so I didn't dare to drink at noon.

In the afternoon, Spring and Wu Xiao took a light truck from Xu Dan's second sister to Shimengouzi Village to bring the TV, refrigerator, video recorder and other large items used in the wedding to the school. Zhang Xiuli also took this opportunity to bring some flour, rice, peanut oil, green vegetables and other household necessities to the spring.

When Spring and Wu Xiao returned to Hushan Middle School, Xu Dan and Wang Li were installing curtains and wall curtains in their bedrooms. The curtains are made of pink velvet, which are hung all over the wall of the back window of the bedroom, hanging down to the ground, the wall curtains are also velvet of the same material and color, and they are hung around the bedroom room, and the pure white walls, warm pink curtains and wall curtains make the whole bedroom full of warm and romantic atmosphere.

I was busy until five o'clock in the afternoon, and I and Wu Xiao installed and debugged the TV, placed the refrigerator and other objects, and looked at the bedroom full of warmth and the kitchen with neat pots and pans, and for the first time in my heart, I felt at home.

Although the new home has been furnished, according to the customs of the Toyama area, it is not possible to fire in the new house or stay overnight until the moving ceremony is officially held.

In the evening, Chun still drove Xu Dan back to Shimengouzi Village on a motorcycle.

At dinner, the spring told his parents about the layout of the school's new house, which caused a burst of sighs and sighs from Chun Shuli and Zhang Xiuli, saying that parents have no ability, and they have to let their daughter-in-law use the happy money of the "bottom of the box" of her mother's marriage, and also said how much money was spent to calculate the amount in spring, and sell some food in a few days to return it to Xu Dan. Xu Dan smiled shyly, saying that they are all one family, why do you want to talk about two families?

After dinner, Xu Dan and Zhang Xiuli ran to the kitchen to continue their work, and they had to prepare dumplings for tomorrow's moving ceremony. Harushuli talked to Haru in detail about the moving ceremony process and the details that need to be paid attention to in the hall.

The next day was the 16th day of September in the lunar calendar, and Chun Shuli was looking for someone to check the date, which was an auspicious day for moving.

In the old days, there were many elaborate moving ceremonies in the Toyama area, and there were very strict standards for each step, and most of these standards were passed down by word of mouth among the common people for thousands of years. There is a saying in the moving town of Hushan, "auspicious land also needs good days", so it is necessary to choose a day. Usually when moving, it is advisable to choose the "water" day, it is best not to use the "fire" day, the sunny day is the yin time, and the cloudy day is matched with the yang. The choice of the day also depends on whether the auspicious day clashes with the family zodiac. In addition, on the basis of choosing a day, it is necessary to find out the specific suitable time of the day and set a suitable time for moving. In the Toyama area, it is common to complete the moving ceremony before the sun rises in the morning.

If you encounter hospitals, churches, funeral parlors, prisons or temples on the way, you should take a detour, if you can't avoid it, you can sprinkle red envelopes containing wormwood, peach wood and other evil plants on the day of moving.

The first thing to do is to start from the kitchen, and boil a pot of water in the kitchen, which means "the wind and water rise, and the wealth is rolling"; it is necessary to cook a pot of dumplings wrapped in advance for worship; the worship must offer dumplings, prepare incense candles, and burn paper money, and after these procedures are completed, you can go to the courtyard gate to light firecrackers to announce that the gods of heaven and earth and the surrounding neighbors have completed the moving ceremony.

As for other aspects, for example, when the bed is to be made at an auspicious time, lean against the wall before the auspicious time comes, and then take up its position when the hour comes. When moving, it is advisable to carry a red paper with "Chang Man" written on it and a rice jar or noodle bucket full of rice and noodles, and at the same time to bring a handful of rice, a handful of soil and a bottle of water to the new home, in case the housewarming person is not accustomed to the soil or misses his hometown; pregnant women should not witness and participate in the moving matters, otherwise they will offend the fetal god; on the day of moving, it is not advisable to take a nap in the new house, otherwise there will be a rush and hard work, which is also very bad for health, and so on. Nowadays, young people are troublesome, and many complicated procedures have been abandoned, and only cooking dumplings, worshipping and setting off firecrackers are left.

The next day, as soon as it was dawn, he took Xu Dan to Hushan Middle School on a motorcycle in the spring, and Xu Dan sat on the back seat of the motorcycle, with the quick-frozen dumplings wrapped last night in the tray in his hand.

When I arrived at the school, the spring completed the moving ceremony step by step according to the arrangement of Chun Shuli, and the deafening sound of firecrackers announced the end of the moving ceremony, and also announced to the teachers in the family courtyard of Hushan Middle School that Spring and Xu Dan had officially moved into the compound of Hushan Middle School.

At noon, Chun Zhi organized wine and food, set up a table in his new home, and feasted Wu Xiao, Wang Li and his new neighbor Zheng Kaiqiang's family.

Zheng Kaiqiang, Chinese New Year's Eve years old, is the teaching director of the Mishuihe School District Primary School in Hushan Town, and his wife Guo Shuqin was transferred from the Mishuihe School District to the Jiashan Middle School in 1995.

In July 1991, Zheng Kaiqiang and Guo Shuqin, who graduated from Dongzhou Normal University, were assigned to the remote town of Hushan by a paper order. At that time, Liu Wenhua had just been transferred to the director of the Hushan Town Education Committee, and the two young people who had just entered the society and knew nothing about human communication became the fish on Liu Wenhua's board, with a bachelor's degree, Zheng Kaiqiang and Guo Shuqin, who could have been assigned to Hushan Middle School logically, were finally assigned to Mishuihe Primary School by Liu Wenhua because they were not "sensible". Liu Wenhua would not have thought that his selfish act against his will would instead achieve the love and marriage of Zheng Kaiqiang and Guo Shuqin.

Zheng Kaiqiang and Guo Shuqin, who did not know each other before, but now get along day and night, and are in a relatively closed environment in Mishuihe Primary School, quietly fell in love and held a wedding in October 1993. After getting married, the two lived in the dilapidated dormitory of Zheng Kaiqiang at Mishuihe Primary School, and Guo Shuqin's dormitory had to be vacated to accommodate the new teachers.

In August 1994, Sun Changshun became the principal of Mishuihe Primary School, and Zheng Kaiqiang, who was in the prime of life, was promoted to the teaching director of Mishuihe Primary School.

In September 1994, Zheng Kaiqiang and Guo Shuqin's daughter was born, and the birth of the daughter brought many unexpected difficulties to the life of Zheng Kaiqiang and his wife, first of all, the housing problem, a house of more than ten square meters to live in a family of three, but also to place pots and pans and other sundries, its crowding can be imagined. Zheng Kaiqiang was helpless and found the principal Sun Changshun, who was helpless in the face of the current situation of the school. However, he gave Zheng Kaiqiang an idea and asked him to find Zhao Zhiqiang, director of the Education Commission, to see if Guo Shuqin could be transferred to Jiashan Middle School, as long as Guo Shuqin could be transferred to Jiashan Middle School, then their housing problem would be solved. Under the guidance of Sun Changshun, Zheng Kaiqiang found Zhao Zhiqiang with gifts such as cigarettes and alcohol, and truthfully stated his actual situation to Zhao Zhiqiang.

So, in August 1995, Zheng Kaiqiang's wife Guo Shuqin was transferred to Jiashan Middle School as she wished, and was assigned two rooms in Hushan Middle School.

Zheng Kaiqiang is also a lover of personality, bold, able to drink and talk, and fell in love with Spring and Wu Xiao at first sight. Therefore, at the housewarming banquet on October 26, the spring was drunk again.
