In the morning, the Su family got up early, Su Li and his father Su Zhiyuan were busy cooking paste, posting the Spring Festival couplets written on the afternoon of the 28th, the door couplet, the door god, and hanging the lanterns Lin Juan, the mother of the Su family, was responsible for cleaning the already clean house, and left the tribute dishes prepared in advance over the fire to Su Zhiyuan to finish worshiping his ancestors.

Ancestor worship is a traditional custom of the Chinese people, which has a history of thousands of years. Sacrificing ancestors is a grand folk activity during the Spring Festival. The Chinese people have a tradition of chasing after the end of the day, and they will never forget to worship the dead ancestors during the festival, and the Spring Festival is no exception. Offering food or flowers to express one's heart is a common ritual used by the Chinese people, and the form of ancestor worship may vary depending on religious beliefs, but the meaning of commemorating ancestors is the same, and family sacrifices have always been one of the main contents of Chinese New Year's Eve.

The process of worshipping ancestors, in Sujia Village, is to bring tribute to the ancestors' tombs to burn paper money and kowtow to set off firecrackers, but this year, the Su family decided to celebrate the New Year in Jincheng, and this ancestor worship process was changed to complete this ceremony in front of the offering table arranged in their own living room. The tomb of the ancestors of the Su family, Su Zhiyuan has already returned to his hometown in advance to fill in the soil and weed.

The fruit was placed on the table, Su Zhiyuan burned incense and paper, and led his wife and daughter to kneel and worship the tablets of his father-in-law and parents. Step by step to do the action of worshiping the ancestors, respect and sincerity, the original ancestors blessed the family's peace and health, the next year the little girl will be healthier, and the ancestors will be successfully worshipped, one is to express the respect of the descendants to the ancestors, and the other is also the sustenance of people's hearts for the good wishes.

A busy morning. After making all the preparations for the New Year's morning, the family had breakfast and changed into clothes with gifts. Go out and head towards the Xu Mansion of Longhu Villa. Elder Xu did not leave the Xu Mansion, and those of them who were juniors would accompany him to celebrate the New Year in the morning and celebrate the New Year on Chinese New Year's Eve in the evening. I'm going back to my home to get busy.

Today the family got new clothes. The Chinese New Year is to get rid of the old and welcome the new. Not to attend a formal banquet, Su Zhiyuan was not particularly formal, a dark blue lapel-neck tweed coat, gray-blue trousers, a light gray sweetheart collar plaid cardigan with a white shirt and a dark red striped tie, and his short hair was neatly combed. Through the spirit of the New Year.

Lin Juan and Su Li, a mother and daughter, are aspiring to wear brocade thickened and improved cotton placket cheongsam together. The difference is that Lin Juan's cheongsam is a folded cinnamon style, the cuffs are close to the curve of the arm, and the light red peony flowers hovering over the neckline and cuffs and the side waist skirt are full of the festivity of the New Year, adding seven dignified and beautiful points to Lin Juan's gentle and virtuous temperament.

Su Li's is a shallower proud cold plum, the sleeves are more youthful sleeves, a little golden phoenix tail spreads from the hem of Su Li's placket, and the corresponding red plum and golden phoenix tail add seven points of festivity to Su Li, which has always been elegant, fresh and pleasant, and is in tune with the atmosphere of the New Year. The mother and daughter's clothes are slanted with three-inch hair inlays, and the soft snow-white plush brings people twelve points of warmth.

The hair of the mother and daughter is long, Lin Juan's hair has recently been coiled in an elegant bun on the top of her head, and a golden branch begonia flower inlaid with a soybean-sized ruby double-strand hairpin is obliquely placed on the side, and two begonia flower earrings of the same texture are stuffed in the ears, which is festive and wealthy in line with the atmosphere of the New Year.

Su Li hung a pink hibiscus swan pendant on her chest, a bracelet of the same texture was gently hung on her slender wrist, the side braided hair was pulled to the chest, only at the beginning of the braid, a platinum plum blossom ornament embellished with pink hibiscus jade was gently inserted, and two drop-shaped hibiscus stone pendant earrings were sandwiched between the ears, delicate and elegant and not the delicate and sweet of a young girl. When Su Li's parents were young, they were reluctant to suffer the pain of piercing her ears, because Su Liming had no ear piercings. At this point, Peng Lao and Peng Yu, who are masters, have already discovered that Su Li's earrings and earrings are all clamped styles.

On the way to Longhu Villa, Su Li leaned on the pillow in the back seat, smiled, two drop-shaped earrings hanging with platinum wire shook gently, reflecting a soft brilliance, thinking about the placement of the family in the coming year, Su Li couldn't help but suggest: Abba, Grandma, they all say that the New Year is new, let's take a look at the house after the New Year, after the New Year, if you want Sister Han Qing and Sister Yingyu to live with us, then the place at home is not big enough! ”

Although there are not many people in their family, the utilization rate of the room is quite high. The family now has a three-room room, she and her parents have a bedroom, and the remaining one can only be used by Shufang Pharmacy, and the storage room can only be set up in the wall cabinet taken out of the kitchen, which is already very reluctant to make do with it, and in the coming year, their economic conditions will be good enough, if her parents don't mind moving, she wants to buy some real estate for the family, find a house with more space and more houses to live in.

"It's okay, where does Ali want to see the house, I'll pay attention to your Abba after the New Year, and if it's suitable, our house will be on top!" Lin Juan has no opinion, and now she also knows that buying a house is an investment, and it is better to increase the value than putting money in the bank, so Lin Juan and Su Zhiyuan don't mind buying real estate.

What's more, the house at home is indeed a little insufficient now, not to mention that Ali's two assistants have no extra place to stay, even now, they have been wronged that Ali and her husband have been sharing a study, and they have to be used as a pharmacy at the same time, and the workshop can only be rested in their own room to arrange a table is a workbench, which is so simple that this workbench has become Ali's desk when she doesn't work on weekdays, and it is really too wronged for the little girl.

There is no shortage of economic conditions at home now, how can you not think of a way to use it to make your family more comfortable and add glory? These houses, when Ali becomes an adult, will be written in Ali's name and become Ali's assets, which can be regarded as the property that she and her father bought for her.

"Someone in our seventh building wants to rent a house, I'll go back and rent it, and let the two girls who are your assistants live first. People come all the way to help us, and we should arrange it for others! (To be continued......)
