Chapter 324: "Sticking to the God of Wealth"

Erya is not a very kind-hearted person, but it was only because she heard that Lai Mingxun's father and mother made herself like that in order to give his grandmother a chance to live, which is what touched her the most. It is common for parents to not want their lives for their children, but it is rare in the world for the children of a family to die for their parents, especially if their daughters-in-law do not want their own lives for their in-laws. At least she couldn't do it herself, thinking about it, maybe she could, but she really had to face such a situation, starving to the extreme, she thought that she would definitely eat the life food that was supposed to be left for her parents under the push of her parents. It is precisely because she clearly knows that she can't do it that she admires what she can do even more, and she will be deeply stimulated.

She only thinks about one thing, those who truly honor their parents should be respected by others and rewarded by God! Therefore, she believes that as long as she is properly nourished, Lai Mingxun's father's body will definitely be able to be raised.

Erya made a table full of good dishes, and it didn't take long for the guest of honor to sit down at the table and eat, and Xiaolong took Wen Chao and Wen Yue back from eating at Grandpa's house. As soon as I saw the fried eel, braised loach, crucian carp steamed eggs, salted pig's trotters, and vermicelli pots on the table, many of which I loved to eat, I shouted "Sister-in-law!" Drive us to grandpa's house for dinner, you steal good food at home! No way! I'm going to eat it too! As he spoke, the little dragon sat down on the empty stool on the lower edge, and the two little ones didn't say a word, but followed the little uncle to the stool next to the table. Er Ya had long known that they would definitely have to eat a few more bites when they came back, so they prepared the dishes and chopsticks in advance, so they took their seats and picked up the chopsticks. Just start eating.

Children are greedy! Now that you've eaten your stomach, how much can you eat if you eat more? So the three guys, just after eating two bites, they really can't hold on. I can only watch others eat happily. As long as the children are not unreasonable to the guests, the second girl generally does not reprimand them, and they sit on the side angrily and sulk. However, the Lai family's grandmother looked at Xiucai Gong like a child, and she was very surprised, grinning and looking at it secretly.

After eating, they sent away the Lai family, who were full of confidence and enthusiasm for the future, as well as Wu Fenggang, and Erya and Xiaohu went to their uncle's house to pay New Year's greetings. When they arrived at the uncle's house, the uncle and the others were happily competing to talk. Erya couldn't help but ask, "Why are you so happy?" It won't be a matter of big brother marrying! ”

Daman came back the year before last to ask his grandfather and grandfather to testify, and divide all his property to Qingzhu in advance, and when he talks about his relatives in the future. There is no need to chew on the property for the sake of property. Just because I needed to run to the border later, I left this matter behind, and I didn't get this thing done until I came back this year.

The daughter of the town's family over there. It's really full of it. If you don't marry her for a day, you won't marry for a day - wait! Originally, Daman couldn't look down on her who couldn't have children and was too arrogant, but after getting along for a long time, I found that this woman's personality was actually quite good. Although he is very arrogant, he has a good sense of proportion, and he is also broad-minded, not the character of sulking at every turn. The most satisfying thing is that she never turns her tongue. Overall, a well-educated one. She has the character of a woman. Once he liked it, Daman's original condition that he had to have a child was relaxed. It doesn't seem to matter if you can give birth or not. When I came back this time, I also made a special mention of the woman to the uncle, but the uncle and aunt had no opinion.

Daman is already big and has the ability to choose women, and he doesn't need them to interfere anymore. As for Qingzhu Niang, I heard that the embroidery room looked for her again. She went to the embroidery workshop and came back empty-handed a few days later. After that, she remarried according to her mother's will, and the house was naturally occupied by her brother and sister-in-law as a matter of course. They didn't tell Daman about this, but Daman must have known about it. Now that he can let go of Qingzhu Niang and is willing to marry again, the old couple will be very happy. In addition, Daman already has green bamboo, whether that head can be born or not, they really don't care.

The eldest aunt was very interested and rushed to answer Erya: "No! His family affairs have already been agreed, and we will go over there next year to do it, and we will not come back to hold the banquet. What's new today! Niece and daughter-in-law, can you see the God of Wealth posted on the door of your house today? ”

The second girl was stunned, it seems that I didn't post that! She looked at the same inexplicable little tiger and shook her head: "I didn't pay attention!" We shouldn't have posted it! ”

The eldest aunt said with a smile: "It wasn't posted by us, it was secretly posted by outsiders in the thirtieth night." After the first month, they will come to the door to ask for a reward! This post is still something I heard about when I was a child, we are poor here, and no one has ever come to post it. It is estimated that someone has spread the word that our life is better, so someone has come all the way to post it! If your family plans to give a reward, don't tear up the God of Wealth, and leave it until someone comes to ask for a reward! ”

Erya didn't understand what was going on at first, but after listening to what the eldest aunt said, she roughly understood. There is also such a thing in Erya's original memory, this so-called God of Wealth! In fact, it is begging in disguise.

At that time, although she was on the mountain all the year round, she would be sent home by her second uncle every year on the twenty-third day of the lunar month, and then picked her up again after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. Therefore, she still knows a little bit about their family's New Year's customs.

At the beginning, when she was very young, someone secretly posted the God of Wealth in the Thirty Nights. After the first day of the new year, there will be people carrying bags to the door to collect rice. If someone can't afford to give rice, they tear up the God of Wealth, and the beggar will pass over to the house and not ask for it. It's just that later, the person who sticks to the God of Wealth is getting lazier and lazier, and he doesn't want to go to the trouble of sticking to each other, and he doesn't want to run two more times. Just in the thirtieth and first month, directly take a small piece of red paper printed with the God of Wealth to the door, go to your door and say Wishing you prosperity, and then stuff the red paper into your family's hands, if you want it, you will immediately have to give rice or money. If you don't want it, people will just grunt and leave, and they won't grind. Later, after the reform and opening up, there were fewer and fewer people who sent the God of Wealth, and then there was no more at all.

I didn't expect that there was such a custom here, but the eldest aunt and the aunt were so excited, which made the second girl puzzled. Their family is very annoyed with this kind of begging, and they should be upset and not upset. Especially on the first, second, and third days of the new year, it is very taboo to give away things from home. But everyone is afraid that if they don't give it, they will provoke people to scold, and the New Year will be even more unlucky.

Erya replied perfunctorily: "Oh! Then I'll pay attention when I go back to see if there is any! Is there anything special about this posting God of Wealth? You all seem to be excited! ”

The eldest aunt felt very proud, and replied: "Of course you have to be happy!" I'm afraid you haven't heard of it, but here we used to be told that the poor wouldn't even come to ask for food!

Do you think that the God of Wealth will be the same as asking for food, where to go! They're not! They have to inquire in advance about where life is going to be good, and if they can ask for a reward or other things, they will come to the door to post the God of Wealth. Not to mention the black lights and fire in the night of the 30th Chinese New Year's Eve, and it snowed heavily! They don't want to be sinned against and work in vain! ”

Erya finally understood that although being kind and charitable was a good quality of the ancients, they also had the same good (four sounds) reputation. It is rumored that no one will feel glorious in a poor place where even beggars do not come. This time the God of Wealth is helping them take off this poor hat! And it is said that this poster of the God of Wealth is generally a stranger who lives far away and will come to post it. Because this is begging in disguise, if you run into an acquaintance, both parties will feel very embarrassed. This also shows that the good life of the people in Hepu Town has spread far away. It's no wonder that they are all very happy!

Knowing what the reason was, Er Ya asked funny: "How much does the eldest aunt plan to give?" ”

The eldest aunt seemed to be patronizing and laughing happily for the good name here, and she really didn't think about rewarding, she blinked, turned around and pulled the second girl and said, "Let's go, let's ask your second aunt together!" Da Man and Da Hong couldn't help laughing when they looked at their mother's impatient appearance in the back.

The second aunt's house is even more lively, not only the second aunt and their own family, but also the eldest son Shoujiang and the second son Shouhe of the grandfather's family are also here, and the second uncle doesn't know why he keeps talking. When the second aunt saw the sister-in-law and niece and daughter-in-law entering the door, she greeted them with a smile, and took the initiative to say without waiting for the sister-in-law to ask: "The child's father asked Shoujiang to get drunk, and they sent them back and are playing drunk!" ”

"Okay, what kind of drunken madness?" The eldest aunt asked with a frown. This second brother has always been very steady, why did he suddenly get drunk on the first day of the new year, and he didn't have to make people laugh at the family and started to run rampant when he had some money.

The second aunt was not upset because the man was drunk, but happily replied: "The child's father is happy!" Didn't I bring a lot of soldiers back to pull food before, and somehow some people were moved, and they all entrusted people to the old lady. It's not one, it's five! The second aunt stretched out her hand as she spoke, and opened her five fingers to show her sister-in-law.

The second girl, who had already entered the house, heard that she was talking about her relatives to her son, and she looked at the second uncle's illogical nonsense. Xiangzi, Uncle Shoujiang, and Uncle Shouhe held back a smile and perfunctory him: "Yes!" Be! "You're right!" Minghao, Mingjuan and their mother covered their mouths and snickered on the side.

When Wang Shoujiang and Wang Shouhe saw the sister-in-law and niece-in-law entering the house, they greeted them with a smile, and then said goodbye to the second sister-in-law.

The second aunt sent Shoujiang and Shouhe away, returned to the house, and saw that the child's father was still talking, so she said to her son: "Miss the son!" Help your dad into the house and lie down, and stop making him babble! ”

"Mother! Don't you want to make some tea for your dad? ”

"Let him lie down for a while, wait for him to get up, and then make tea to sober him up!"

After the second aunt finished explaining, she happily listened to the sister-in-law talk about the God of Wealth, and everyone discussed, if you want money, you will give 30 copper coins, and if you want food, you will give a liter of rice. That's a lot to give to the beggars.

After talking about the God of Wealth, the second aunt suddenly remembered the marriage of Peach, so she asked Erya: "Peach's marriage will be on the sixth day of the first month, how much gift money do you plan to give?" ”

Erya was surprised and asked, "Ah! Why haven't I heard about it at all? It's too sudden, isn't it? (To be continued......)
