Chapter 345: Gifts
The next day is the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, as the saying goes, the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, go to the grave to ask the ancestors to make a big offering, people usually go to the grave on this day.
On this day in the hometown, the four members of the Shen family also went to the grave, and Grandpa Shen and Grandma Shen were buried on the hill behind the village. There is no way to go to the grave here, but Shen Hui also prepared paper money in advance to burn for her grandparents.
After dinner, when it got dark, Shen Hui called Shen Cong and Gu Zhengqin to burn paper money, and in addition to paper money, they also prepared some rare fruits in the south to burn.
The night sky was pitch black, filled with the smell of soot, and people from far and near on the road were burning paper money, muttering something.
Shen Hui burned it on the road next to her yard, she didn't speak, she really didn't know what to say, her grandparents were no longer there when she was born, but there was a black and white photo at home, which looked like two very kind people.
Before the burning, Gu Zhengqin was pulled to recognize the person, and Gu Zhengqin's side was burned, and it was also the grandparents, after recognizing the person, there was still some paper money that was not burned, and the three of them went home first after the term of office, and it was too cold at night, I think the grandparents can understand them.
I went home to wash and sleep, tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, there is a mess to be busy.
The next day is Chinese New Year's Eve, and it is also the most important time of the year.
When they got up in the morning, Shen Hui and Gu Zhengqin took a red envelope and sent it to Shen Cong, in their hometown, only those who are married will give red envelopes, and as long as they are not married, they can receive red envelopes.
In addition, Shen Hui also took out a New Year's gift for the two, in addition to a new coat for each person, he specially bought a new razor for Gu Zhengqin, a pen and a notebook for Shen Cong.
"Sister, I also have a gift for you!" Shen Cong happily took the pen and notebook.
Shen Hui's eyes lit up, she didn't expect this guy to still think about her, "What's it?"
"You wait!" said he climbed up to the hook where the clothes were hung, dug into the pocket of the cotton coat for a while and took out a box, "Sister, give it to you!"
Shen Hui took it and saw that it was a skin care grease printed with a beauty's head, or from SH, just such a small box cost ten yuan, she hadn't seen it, she didn't want to buy it, she was young and had good skin, and she didn't need it at all.
Just looking at it, I saw Shen Cong hand over another box, "They said that these two are matching!"
This is also a round box, but it is a hard paper, with flowers printed on it that I don't know, but I don't write, and the side is also a flower, written with the manufacturer, and when I saw the name on the other side, I knew that this was a box of powder, although I didn't need it at the moment, but it was always Shen Cong's heart, and Shen Hui accepted it very happily.
"What, don't you need to give me a gift?" Gu Zhengqin squinted at Shen Cong, as a boss and brother-in-law, he also needs to be pleased.
"Yes, of course there is!" Shen Cong said dog-leggedly, no one can lack his brother-in-law's without it.
It's actually a book of "The Art of War", Shen Hui smiled, this kid has a heart.
Gu Zhengqin didn't say anything, just be decent.
"Brother-in-law, don't be stunned, it's your turn!" Shen Cong couldn't help but urge when he saw that his brother-in-law was holding the book.
"Well, it's yours!"
Shen Cong subconsciously stretched out his hand to take it, it was a box, Shen Hui also stretched out his head and walked over to look, "Hey, it's a telescope! It's expensive, right?"
Gu Zhengqin took the initiative to hand over his monthly salary, but Shen Hui would leave ten yuan for him every time, which was enough to buy a telescope, but now he should have no penny in his hand.
"It's okay!Huihui, this is for you!" Gu Zhengqin said.
"What's it, it's bigger than the box of a telescope?" Shen Hui asked.
"See for yourself!" Gu Zhengqin smiled at the corner of his lips.
Shen Hui opened the box and saw the black radio inside at a glance, and couldn't help grinning, "It's a radio!"
The rectangular one, the Haiyan brand, can also be inserted into the tape, connected to the wire, selected a channel, just playing the music and dance epic "Dongfang Hong", and then change the channel, it is the New Year speech of the head of the Central Committee.
"Thank you!" Shen Hui said, her face a little red.
"You are my daughter-in-law, this is as it should be!" Gu Zhengqin said with a smile.
"Ahem, sister, brother-in-law, I'm a big living person!" someone looked at the two people who looked at each other resentfully, and sure enough, he didn't listen to the old man, and the light bulb was made for half a year.
"Heh, we can see that you are a big living person, are you idle, go to the kitchen over there and burn the oven with firewood, and roast chicken, duck and fish for you to eat!"
Shen Cong pouted and did it obediently, who let him eat the most every time.
When Shen Cong came back, it was almost ten o'clock, Shen Hui found out the Spring Festival couplets and blessing characters that he bought two days ago, and stirred up some paste (paste of flour and water), "The head of Gu Zhengqin's family pasted couplets, Shen Cong, you pasted couplets and a blessing word, and I will paste the remaining one!"
Shen Hui first took a piece of blessing and pasted it on the bedroom door, because she was going to be blessed, so she had to paste it upside down. After pasting it, take the paste out of the house, Gu Zhengqin and Shen Cong have already compared the height, and they can paste the paste according to the good height.
After pasting the couplet, it was time for Shen Cong to paste the couplet, and Shen Hui also moved the chair out early, and the lintel was nearly two meters high.
I was looking at the two of them crooked on the left for a while, and on the right for a while, when I heard Sister-in-law Qi's loud voice in the distance, "Vigorously, go to the left, Xiao Lei, don't make trouble......"
Step on the other side and look at the opposite side, they are also pasting Spring Festival couplets, Xiao Lei is holding a blessing word in his hand, and his face and hands are covered with paste.
If you listen closely, the whole family area is full of things like 'to the left, to the right, to the left, to the right, to be crooked, to be high' and so on.
"Okay!" Shen Cong jumped down from the chair and slipped when he landed, so frightened that Shen Hui hurriedly reached out to help, but before he could help him, he stood firmly.
"Shen Cong, I'm sixteen years old, it's time to marry a daughter-in-law in my hometown, can I be honest?" Although nothing happened, Shen Hui was also very angry, it was not okay for a soldier to jump out like this, so how tired would she be a man.
Shen Cong touched his nose weakly, "Sister, it's time to post the word Fu!"
"Let's post it!" Shen Hui also habitually said a few words, and she should maintain a good mood during the New Year.
After pasting the Spring Festival couplets, Shen Hui began to prepare lunch, and now the pickled chicken, duck and fish are hung in the stove, she looked at the dishes that were taken out to thaw in the morning, just three people, if you do less, there is no New Year's flavor, and if you do more, you will be left until tomorrow morning, and you can only make a few more, and make a little less of each.
In addition to chicken and fish, which are indispensable, she first reported the names of the dishes and selected more than a dozen dishes that everyone likes to eat.
With Gu Zhengqin and Shen Cong at home, she also has two more helpers, although she can't be complimented in stir-frying, it's still okay to chop meat and pick vegetables.
