The 23rd day of the lunar month is the Stove King Festival, and the folk call this day "Xiao Nian".

On this day, there is an important ritual is the sacrificial stove, the sacrificial stove uses sweet and sticky food, which means sticking to the mouth of the king of the stove, not letting him go to heaven to say bad things, or making the mouth of the king of the stove sweet, just saying good things, and some really stick a small piece of sugar on the mouth of the god of the stove or the door of the stove, hoping that the king of the stove can bring luck and auspiciousness to the whole family, and bless the family with good luck and prosperity.

Qingfeng Mountain's Xiao Nian is different because today is also a day to check the results of these few days. The purpose of this inspection is to ensure that the troops have a good mental outlook and discipline, and at the same time to announce the new discipline of the Qingfeng Mountain troops.

Song Jiang doesn't want to see a heroic and victorious iron army now, he wants to see the momentum of development, and a good start is half the success.

Today, all the teams stood neatly in the open space in platoons, without talking to each other or whispering, but stood quietly for two hours with their chests and stomachs folded and looking ahead. Among them were crumbling fighters, who also gritted their teeth and persisted, fearing that the honor of the entire platoon would be damaged due to their own failures.

This was a gratifying beginning, the spirit and discipline of the team were significantly improved, and the collective sense of honor of the fighters was also increased. Therefore, after the two-hour standing inspection, Song Jiang immediately affirmed the results of this period of training and praised the fighters. Then he cleared his throat and announced the new discipline of the Qingfeng Mountain team from now on.

"Soldiers, since we want to become an iron army that wins all battles, discipline is indispensable, and soldiers must have the discipline of soldiers, and now I announce the three major disciplines of Qingfeng Mountain. The first discipline is to obey the command in all actions. Let me explain to you that the reason why 'all actions' should be 'obeyed by commands' is that once a 'command' is made, it has the effect of public determination, certainty, binding force, and execution force. As subordinates, they must resolutely obey the commands of their superiors, obey the orders of their superiors, fight according to their orders, make arrangements for operations according to the plans of their superiors, and resolutely fulfill all combat tasks assigned by their superiors. Those who disobey will be punished, and in serious cases, they can be killed on the spot. ”

"The second discipline is that all seizures must be returned to the public. That is to say, all the property obtained from the descent operation belongs to Qingfeng Mountain, and no individual is allowed to swallow it privately. This is a little different from the past, some people may have an opinion, feel that they get the property of course, why should they pay it. Let's think about it, we are now saying that it is not good to hear is a grasshopper on a rope, and the cottage is our place of standing, that is, everyone's home, are we not obliged to contribute our own strength to the home? Of course, after handing over the public, we will reward the meritorious deeds, take out 30% to reward, and keep the rest for the construction of cottages. I have the ability to make everyone believe that in the future, Qingfeng Mountain will have endless grain and rice and endless silver! ”

"The third discipline is the prohibition of private fighting. You are all heroes, you usually like to talk with your fists when there are any bumps, and you are brave and fierce in private, which is a bad phenomenon and will affect the unity of Qingfeng Mountain. In the future, there shall be no private fighting, and the violator shall be punished with 20 rods and pay a certain amount of fine. ”

Song Jiang's gaze flooded the entire team like sea water, and he shouted loudly: "Can the soldiers do it? ”

"Yes!"

"I can't hear clearly, everyone shouts three times!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

Looking at the high morale, Song Jiang nodded with satisfaction and said: "We also promise to all brothers that the soldiers who die in the battle in the future will be supported by Qingfeng Mountain for the elderly and Qingfeng Mountain for children." The seriously injured and disabled warrior Qingfeng Mountain has its status, we are a family, and we will never leave us. We are proud of Qingfeng Mountain, and Qingfeng Mountain is also proud of us! ”

The soldiers had a smile on their faces, they believed that if they followed Song Jiang, the cottage would definitely be a peach orchard. Huachen also showed an approving gaze, it won't be long before a group of screaming soldiers will come out of Qingfeng Mountain, this is a rare wealth! It's really a soldier, a nest of bears, this Song Jiang really has two brushes!

Soon it was Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone was busy pasting Spring Festival couplets, window flowers, blessing characters, setting off fireworks and firecrackers, and Qingfeng Mountain was in a sea of joy. Of course, the entire Northern Song Dynasty is like this, the habit of the Chinese, busy for a year, go home for a year of dissipation.

The reunion dinner in Qingfeng Mountain was more abundant this year than in previous years, and every household was given enough grain, rice and meat, and the team was temporarily on holiday for the New Year. The leaders' dinner also increased many people, such as cadres above the platoon level, Professor Pan, Wang Blacksmith and others all attended the banquet to celebrate Chinese New Year's Eve.

"Good evening, everyone! Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, why do we gather together to witness this time to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new, because we are a family. Only when there is fate can we get together, and if we have a heart, we should cherish it, if we are blessed, we should share it, and we Qingfeng Mountain people should be like this! ”

After the wine and food were served, Song Jiang signaled everyone to be quiet and began the opening remarks of this dinner.

After a round of applause, he continued: "I, Song Jiang, will not say some elegant and ethereal words to bless everyone, I will use practical actions." Last night I went to the Buddha and begged him to bless the people of Qingfeng Mountain with peace, health, joy and happiness, and he was very stingy and stretched out four fingers to indicate that there were only four days, and I said that I would like to be spring, summer, autumn, and winter. Then the Buddha said that he would only give me three days, and I did not hesitate to say yesterday, today, and tomorrow! The Buddha said that you will only be given two days, you choose, I said day and night. In the end, the Buddha said that he could only give you one day, and I said that I wanted every day! ”

In an instant, there was silence on the field. Some people didn't react to such a thunderous blessing, some people were amazed that Song Jiang actually dared to make a joke about the Buddha, and some people were conquered by Song Jiang's jumping thinking, and they were stunned for a while. But I instantly understood that my brother's blessing words that were not afraid of the Buddha's punishment were really high-level, and the applause was thunderous.

Song Jiang blushed secretly, but fortunately he was black. In order to speak amazingly and better show his talents, he stole the jokes of his previous life, which is also a way to do it! However, I will continue to use it in the future, and the skin will be thicker if I use it more.

To put it nicely, this is the advantage of the traverser, envy you to death, and you have the ability to cross over!

Song Jiang picked up his wine glass and said, "Now I propose that we make three glasses of wine together." Seeing that everyone raised their glasses, Song Jiang said: "The first glass of wine, we will do it for the people who gave birth to us and raised us, I wish them all the best and a safe year!" ”

After drinking the first glass of wine, everyone was busy adding wine, Wang Ying hurriedly added wine to Song Jiang, Song Jiang raised the second glass and said: "The second glass of wine we do for the people who love us and the people we love, I wish them all the best and smooth sailing!" ”

Looking at the second cup, Song Jiang picked up the wine glass again and said: "The third glass of wine we will do for everyone in Qingfeng Mountain, I wish us every year today, every year there is a present day, we know each other and stay together, and the earth will last forever!" ”

After drinking three glasses of wine, Song Jiang said: "Now everyone eats, and there is not enough to add more." ”

At this time, Professor Pan stood up with a wine glass and said loudly: "Fellow fathers and fellow villagers, we also toast a glass of wine to the four leaders, without them, we would not be where we are in Qingfeng Mountain, they have made great contributions and made great contributions!" ”

Immediately afterwards, it was staggered again, everyone was eating and drinking while chatting about homely things, and the mood was rippling in the sea of joy.

Song Jiang saw the enthusiastic scene and was also infected. Yes! The New Year is like a huge convex lens, condensing and preserving the joy of weekdays, focusing on one point, and then releasing it vividly during the New Year.

At this moment, people enjoy the joy, happiness and happiness of a year and the happiness of family reunion, that feeling cannot be expressed in words, only the feeling in their hearts is the most real.

Rich or not, go home for the New Year, what ordinary words, and what real emotions!

Song Jiang thought of his parents, wife and children in his previous life, and he didn't know how they celebrated the New Year now. I didn't care much when we used to be together, but now after coming to the Northern Song Dynasty, the endless thoughts that torment people have sublimated step by step with the transfer of time and space, and the soul is like an infinitely extended straight line......

Ay! The "trip" to the Northern Song Dynasty is the beginning, and the thoughts are sealed first and turned into motivation, and they have to cut through the thorns and sing all the way to the end of the world.

Song Jiang, who returned to reality, began to dissolve into the festive atmosphere again. He stood up and took Huachen to every table to toast collectively and say some words of blessing, and since then Song Jiang has left a deep impact on the minds of everyone in Qingfeng Mountain.
