Chapter 022: Laba Porridge

As soon as this formation was removed, it made everyone up and down Gusu City breathe a sigh of relief, and the Lin family was naturally no exception.

Within a few days, this day entered the wax moon, which coincided with the first New Year after the Lin family was filial piety, so the Lin family was busy except for Lin Liu and Lin Ruhai, two little children.

Compared with the previous life, the Chinese New Year is to go home for a Chinese New Year's Eve meal, watch the Spring Festival Gala, and scatter the red envelopes in the waist bag before the New Year...... Obviously, the ancient Spring Festival was a little more festive.

To Lin Liu's surprise, this era has been celebrated almost since the beginning of the New Year.

Laba is the eighth day of the lunar month, and Laba porridge should be drunk on this day.

The Lin family's laba porridge is extremely luxurious, at least in Lin Liu's opinion.

Use high-quality yellow rice, white rice, Jiang rice, millet, water chestnut rice, chestnuts, red dates, etc., and mountain spring water to cook, external use of peach kernels, almonds, melon seeds, peanuts, hazelnuts, pine nuts, sugar, brown sugar, raisins, etc.

The red porridge is held in a green glass basin, and the porridge surface is sprinkled with snowflake white sugar with the words "Fu, Lu, Longevity, Happiness", and then with a little green and red silk, in the eyes of Lin Liu, where is Laba porridge, it is clearly a beautiful work of art, which can be said to be a combination of "color, fragrance, taste, and taste" The four elements are integrated.

But now Lin Liu can only watch dryly, and can't move the spoon to fill his stomach, because although this is boiled out for them to drink, the first step of boiling porridge has to be offered to the gods and ancestors, and after the offering is completed, it can be eaten.

This is a scene that can never be seen in the previous life, and how many people in modern society really believe in immortals! Even if it is a true faith, offering two sticks of incense on a few fruits, and going to the temple to burn some paper money on the fifteenth day of the New Year's holiday, it is already considered a very believing.

But as far as Lin Liu knows, in this era, except for the poor who have no money and can't make Laba porridge, every family is like this, even the queen mother, emperor, queen, and concubines in the palace.

However, Lin Liu is now gritting his teeth while sighing, lamenting that modern society does not know how many traditional customs have been buried and lost thousands of years of Chinese culture, and gritting his teeth is because the sky is not yet dawn, Lin Liu was picked out of the warm bed by the nurses and maids, because this laba porridge must be eaten before noon.

Mrs. Lin has made people boil so much, naturally it is impossible for a few of them to drink it all, and more of it is given to the Lin family clan and the people who usually have a good relationship with the Lin family, as well as rewards to the subordinates below, so that in order to avoid time, after noon, you can only get up very early to worship the immortals, like this kind of worship of the immortals was a major event in ancient times, and the whole family had to dispatch. This makes even Lin Liu, who has traveled through ancient times for more than half a year and whose work and rest time has been forcibly corrected, still complains, his body has been adjusted, but he still has a lazy heart.

Finally, after the ceremony was over, Lin Liu finally ate Laba porridge that made him swallow more than three mouthfuls of saliva when he smelled the fragrance. I have to say that the Lin family is rich, and the green glass basin used to worship the gods, Lin Liu thought that the Lin family was proud enough, but he didn't expect that when he ate it, although he didn't use the glass basin, he used the glass bowl.

Local tyrants!

You must know that he is only four years old, and a child of this normal age is the age when cats dislike dogs, cause trouble everywhere, play in the water, and lift the bowl. This era is not an era when glass is too cheap to be cheaper, glass is sky-high in this era, and it is a treasure that can make the emperor take the underworld. This is not comparable to the Jia family's "jade plates", "crystal jars" and "kiln plates", after all, this era is an era of "jade", and other gems are not as noble as later generations.

The Lin family is really a tyrant who doesn't explain!

Although everyone shouted "ugly and crying" in the previous life of "red with green", in this atmosphere of the New Year, this bowl of laba porridge is particularly appetizing, and it looks like it is out of the charts.

Lin Liu saw that Master Lin and Mrs. Lin were moving the spoon, so he couldn't wait to scoop up a spoonful and put it in his mouth, the main ingredient was stewed to a rotten point, and the chestnuts were completely so rotten that they were unrecognizable, and they melted in their mouths. Nuts such as peaches, peanuts, and almonds are already noodles. However, the red jujube is unique, it has swelled more than three times, and one jujube occupies a spoonful. Lin Liu ate one, a little noodles, and when he took a bite, it was like eating a soup dumpling, and the juice bursting out of the jujube meat immediately filled his mouth, sweet.

After only drinking one bowl, Lin Liu couldn't drink it, the content in it was too rich, and he was already full after a bowl.

From this day on, Lin Liu could eat a different delicacy almost every day, he was leisurely, but Master Lin and Mrs. Lin were busy and dizzy.

Although Master Lin is not the sect leader of the Lin family, he doesn't have to worry about the affairs of the Lin family, he can just go directly to the patriarch's house when the time comes. Master Kelin's branch is out of five suits, and the ancestors of his branch have to be paid tribute to by him. Therefore, Master Lin was not only busy checking the accounts of the Zhuangzi shop at home, but also commanded people to open the ancestral hall, cleaned it up, packed up the offerings, and invited the god to clean the room to prepare for the hanging of the true image of the confession. In the last few days, he personally went to the Suzhou Prefect's Yamen to receive the reward of the spring festival, although Master Lin did not take office now, but he still has a final title, and he can still receive the royal reward during the spring festival every year.

Lin Liu thought that he could watch this matter from the sidelines, obviously thinking too much, not to mention him, even Lin Ruhai, who will inherit the Lin family's family business in the future, does not have this treatment, who made them too young at two years, this is a major matter about the ancestors' family business, how can Master Lin let people look aside, this is disrespectful to the ancestors.

And although the Lin family is not a bad person, they can't talk about a virgin, and they don't do some things secretly that play the side ball of the law. In fact, families like theirs have two accounts, one on the surface and one in the secret. This was very common in ancient times, cunning rabbit three caves, not to mention just account books, many families even concealed a lot of population, and a large part of those people were the dead soldiers cultivated by those families. It's not for nothing to get a clone or something that is a little more radical.

Master Lin is not guarding against Lin Ruhai and Lin Liu in this matter, but is cautious, even the big families know this, but they have to be cautious, for fear that they will be tricked out of something after they find out.

Just when Lin Liu thought that such a busy day would continue until they finished the Lantern Festival, left Gusu City, and went to the new map of Huzhou, the patriarch of the Lin family suddenly led several people to come to the door in person.
