The order of the elders and young worship belongs to the relatives of the family, and the people who are close to each other congratulate each other, which is called 'New Year'!

The order of New Year's greetings is also particular. Generally speaking, the first year of junior high school is a relative of the paternal family, the second year of junior high school is a relative of the maternal family, and after the third and fourth years of junior high school, they are ordinary relatives and friends.

In ancient times, relatives and friends needed to send someone to greet each other, and the juniors in the family went to the door to pay their respects according to the list.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, the writer Chu Ren was recorded in the "Jian Gu Collection", "New Year's Day greetings, the late Ming and early Qing dynasties used ancient Jane, and there was a title." Kangxi is easy to be red, and someone in the book congratulates".

Liang Shiqiu also complained about the trouble of New Year's greetings in the article. According to his description, "put on a horse coat and satin boots, stepped into the car, and went to the door to pay New Year's greetings according to the list." ”

Of course, now, there is no need to be so troublesome, especially for Xu Hui.

In recent years, relatives at home will choose a time to visit collectively...

The rich have distant relatives in the mountains, and the poor in the downtown no one asks!

Therefore, since the year before last, Xu Hui usually takes his parents to travel abroad for the New Year.

But he apparently forgot that he also had a grandmother!

……

"Mom, we're going to Australia this year?"

After lunch, Xu Hui changed into casual clothes, sat comfortably on the sofa, and looked up at Xu's mother who was chatting with Sisi enthusiastically while scrolling through Weibo.

“… Your grandmother heard that you had brought your daughter-in-law home, and she was clamoring to come over!"

Mother Xu glared at Xu Hui and announced a message.

“… Outside... How did Grandma know?"

Xu Hui was so frightened that he stumbled a little when he spoke.

It won't be...

"I told her, your grandmother called two days ago to urge you to give birth to a grandson for her..."

As Xu Mu spoke, she looked at Liu Sisi with a smile, and the latter gave a shy look at the right time...

Damn, Sisi, you've changed!

You weren't like this before!

"No, Mom, I'm only twenty-eight this year, and I'm not in a hurry to have a baby..."

"What's not in a hurry, aren't you in a hurry, isn't your grandmother in a hurry? She's almost seventy-two this year, and if you don't give birth to a grandson, I guess you really want to accompany her to spend the Qingming Festival!"

“…”

“… It's almost time, let's go!"

Father Xu walked in from outside the door, leading a bunch of things in his hand.

"Son, you change your clothes, Sisi... Do you have any clothes with you?"

Mother Xu looked at Sisi's patterned skirt and frowned.

“… I have long dresses..."

"Well, it's better to wear flat shoes, we're going into the mountains!"

“… Into the mountains, into what mountains?"

Xu Hui suddenly had a hint of foreboding in his heart...

"Go see your grandmother, I didn't say you, Xu Hui, how long have you not seen your grandmother?

……

Hangzhou is not too far from Kun*shan, three hours by car...

Chashan is located in the outskirts of Kun*shan...

After getting out of the car, I looked at the layers of tea trees lush, full of green, and the fragrance of tea leaves was refreshing.

Sisi couldn't help but sigh: "Wow! It's so beautiful! It smells so good!"

"Hehe, I grew up here when I was a kid!"

Xu Hui's mood has also changed a lot, and he was originally a little homesick, and some other emotions have all been put aside!

"It's all small green tea here, it tastes very good, I've been drinking it since I was a child..."

“… Will you not be able to sleep that night?"

“… If it's not coffee, why can't you sleep?"

"I don't understand that..."

Sisi muttered.

"When you see grandma, you can smile more!"

“… I'm a little scared... Xu Hui, why don't I go back!"

Are you retreating for advancement?

"Hehe, go back, where are you going? Tell you, this is my world, be your wife of the village!"

Not long after, a white-walled blue-brick country house appeared in front of several people.

"It's here, let's go!"

Grandma was already standing outside the door, surrounded by aunts and uncles...

Looking at Sisi again, her face was a little stiff, and she didn't expect to see so many people in one day!

……

Tossed until almost ten o'clock in the evening, several waves of people left, and Xu Hui and Sisi's smiling faces were almost unbearable...

"Grandma, I'll go upstairs with Sisi to rest!"

"Go ahead!"

Grandma was very satisfied with Sisi, and after they met, she kept pulling her and interrogating her in various ways...

“… How does it feel?"

"I'm so tired!"

Sisi was lying on the big bed, and she didn't want to move...

I can obviously feel that Xu Hui and his family have a bit of a weird attitude towards her, in addition to welcome, there is... Hate?

"Why is your aunt so cold to me?"

“… Ignore her, she's always wanted to introduce her niece to me..."

“… How else can it be?"

Sisi was a little speechless...

Xu Hui smiled, turned his head to look at the window, the moonlight was bright, opened the window, and looked at the mountain peaks not far away, which was clearly visible, large flowing clouds, fog, against the ridge...

"Sisi, let's go out for a walk?"

“… Now?"

Sisi was a little confused.

"yes, look how beautiful it is!"

"Good..."

couldn't bear to refuse, Sisi forced himself to sleep, and followed the excited Xu Hui downstairs.

……

The two walked slowly up the hill along the streetlights on the side of the road, and Xu Hui was not so nervous that he led Sisi to pick tea in the middle of the night.

The New Year in the south is very cold, and even if you wear a down jacket, you are still shivering from the cold...

"Give me your hand..."

Xu Hui stretched out his hand and wrapped his big hand around Sisi's small hand.

“… I thought you'd be angry..."

"I've watched too many Korean dramas!"

Even so, Xu Hui still lowered his head and sighed into his palm...

The old husband and wife don't have that feeling of blushing and heartbeat.

“… Xu Hui, did you grow up here when you were a child?"

"Well, however, at that time, this tea mountain was not our family, and it was not full of tea trees..."

In the eighties and nineties, my grandmother's family had not yet made a fortune, although it was not poor, but it was not very rich, this tea mountain was contracted in 97, and then it contracted a few neighboring ones, and slowly formed a scale...

"Didn't you say that you learned Kunqu opera when you were a child?"

"That's right, I've been studying for six years!"

"Then you sing a paragraph!"

“… Now, okay, I'll sing you a Zhang Sheng's five watches!"

'Zhang Sheng's five watches', and the legendary 'eighteen touches', are all dregs in traditional culture!

To put it bluntly, it's an obscene * obscene singing segment...

Pao Hui looked at Sisi's little face, hoping to see shyness on her face, but unfortunately, the girl didn't seem to understand this stalk...

Forget it, just sing a paragraph!

"The embroidered shoes have just been half-dismantled, and the willow waist is enough to hold it, and he refused to raise his head shyly, only holding the mandarin pillow. The cloud beard seems to be falling into a golden hairpin, and it is better to have a crooked beard..."

"This is Kunqu Opera?"

"No, this is "The Legend of the West Chamber"!"

"Oh..."

Sisi didn't speak.

I guess I also realized that I didn't know how to pretend to understand just now...

The two walked for half an hour, a little tired, there happened to be a pavilion on the mountainside, Xu Hui said: "Let's sit for a while!"
