124 Chinese New Year's Eve vigil
The Chinese New Year is getting closer and closer, and Wanniang discussed with several women of the Bai family that they would have a holiday in the next few days, and they would not start working again after the Lantern Festival.
Recently, the work of the embroidery room has been done very well, and the people of the Bai family have gradually known a little about the character of the embroidery girls.
Wan Niang revealed the marriage of Zhang Chenghu and Zhaoyang to the Bai family, and also said that she would draw pictures and embroider some things at that time, so that the Bai family could be prepared for entering Beijing in the future.
At first, Wanniang planned to work outside for two years, but after the kidnapping incident, her relationship with Junsheng warmed up, and then there was the safety problem of being alone outside.
She felt that she had thought too simply, and the people of the Qin family in the capital definitely didn't want to stay in Qingzhou Mansion with her two children.
If she insisted on this, she also believed that Junsheng would be able to convince his parents, but there would definitely be a gap at that time.
She has thought about it in the past few days, insisting that her original idea remains the same, but she can take the children to live in Beijing, and her eldest brother and mother will be in Beijing anyway.
Daqi is not harsh on women, and her mother-in-law, Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess, is also doing business in the capital, so she is not afraid that the Qin family will oppose her doing things outside.
Therefore, the affairs of Xiuzhuang have to be handed over to the Bai family.
Thinking like this, Wan Niang proposed that her own molecule should be lower, but the Bai family didn't do it, Wan Niang had no choice, so she had to do her best.
In the end, everyone didn't discuss and come to a conclusion, so Wan Niang asked their sisters-in-law to go home and talk to Aunt Bai and the men, and then discuss a charter together after the New Year.
It was still as cold as ever.
This Chinese New Year's Eve is coming.
Wan Niang's injury is almost healed, and she can walk completely freely.
After eating at noon, Wan Niang asked Sister-in-law Lin and Aunt Lin to go to the old house for a family reunion, and also released Lin Xia and Lin Qiu. As for Feng'er's little servant Lin Yuan, he has long been regarded as his own son by the Lin family.
There are only Wanniang's family and Junsheng's two guards plus Zhou Hao, and there is Hu Guanglu and Dr. Hu who are alone in Phoenix Village.
Wan Niang and He Shi were busy in the kitchen for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in the evening, and several men were talking about the war in the living room.
Feng'er and Ye'er were arranged by Wan Niang to clean up their house, in the past few months, the two little ones have received a lot of things, Wan Niang said, let them put away their favorite things that they can't use for the time being, and when they are done, they can go to the side to find Lin Qiu and Lin Yuan to play together.
Aunt Lin and Sister-in-law Lin also picked all the food, cut it and soaked it before leaving, and even the fire was always lit.
Wan Niang only needs to use her hands.
This year is not only the first year that Wanniang has come to Daqi, but also the first year that Wanniang's family has separated from the Zhang family.
Before the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, there is a procedure for offering wine to the ancestors.
There is only one person in his family who wants to offer wine now, her father Zhang Daguang. At that time, after Zhang Chenghu came back, he set up his own sect, and Wan Niang and He built a simple small ancestral hall in the backyard.
There is only one tablet in it.
The mother and son unanimously decided that for a period of time in the future, this place will be the ancestral home of their clan, and no matter how it develops in the future, they will come back every year to worship.
When Wanniang's mother and daughter brought the prepared things, they still had two children with them, and Zhang Chenghu and Junsheng had already cleaned up the small ancestral hall.
Three meat dishes, three glasses of wine, and a bowl of rice.
Zhang Chenghu remembered the wine offering at Zhang's family when he was not out of the clan before, and did it step by step.
Then there is the burning of paper money, gold ingots.
Finally, the descendants kowtow.
After the small ancestral hall was finished, the sound of firecrackers sounded outside.
Xiao Ye'er immediately covered her ears and said, "Mother, why are you lighting firecrackers now?" â
Wan Niang didn't know why, and when the sound of firecrackers was gone, He said: "What about this firecracker, it's to tell your grandfather, it's time to eat!" We can't eat until your grandfather eats it! â
Xiao Ye'er nodded as if she didn't understand.
The sound of firecrackers in her house stopped, and many people in the village lit firecrackers.
One after another.
"Alright, everyone can eat!"
He looked at Zhang Daguang's tablet and said to the children around him.
There is not a single vegetarian dish on the table, it is He Shi said, this is the rule of the croppers, Chinese New Year's Eve does not eat vegetarian dishes.
After she was full of wine and food, Sister-in-law Lin came over there.
She came to wash the dishes and clean up, originally the He family said no, but the Lin family was honest, and felt that since they were the descendants of the family, the master would be kind enough to let the family reunite and eat, so he should do things for the master's family with all his heart.
Lin Xia and Lin Yuan also came together, and the two of them came to play with Feng'er Ye'er.
After this is full, you can't sit still.
So the four little ones went to the yard to play with firecrackers under the leadership of Junsheng.
Lin Qiu and Aunt Lin cleaned up at home, and then made dumplings, which were to be eaten during the New Year.
Hu Guanglu, Zhou Hao and Zhang Chenghu sat by the stove and talked while drinking, and they talked about things in the army.
Wan Niang looked very bored, pulled He Shi, and went to the yard to find Junsheng and play with the children.
He saw that Wan Niang looked like she wanted to go, thinking that she was suffocating in the room these days, so Wan Niang followed her to the yard to watch the children play with firecrackers.
When she arrived at the yard, Wan Niang joined the army of playing with firecrackers, and He Shi was in tears when she watched it on the side.
Finally, the daughter, son-in-law and grandchildren can be reunited as a family!
It's a scene she'd seen in a lot of dreams in previous years, and now she's seeing it.
When the children were tired of playing, Junsheng and Wanniang carried them into the house one by one, and there were a lot of firecrackers in the yard, Junsheng was happy, so he asked Lin Qiu and Lin Yuan to take some alone.
Lin Qiu and Lin Yuan also happily thanked Junsheng and Wanniang, and went back with firecrackers.
When they arrived, He and the two little ones ate dumplings and went to rest, leaving only a few adults.
Zhang Chenghu and the others drank dumplings again and stopped drinking after a few glasses.
"Hey, how boring is this to stay until dawn?"
Wan Niang looked at a few big men and said depressedly.
"Lady, when you're tired, go and rest! At this age, I'll help you keep it. â
Wan Niang shook her head and said, "No, no, no, I can do it, but it doesn't feel fun!" â
Several people laughed, they lived like this every year, but they didn't think it was anything.
"Why don't we play cards?" Wan Niang suddenly thought of what she would do on Chinese New Year's Eve in modern times.
"Leaf cards?"
"No, no, I created my own zĂ o, it's fun."
Wan Niang shook her head and said.
This is generally playing mahjong and watching TV, but there is no mahjong and no TV here!
However, it is possible to play cards, which are much easier to make than mahjong.
After that, Wan Niang pulled Junsheng and went back to the house with her. (To be continued.) )>
