Su Chenrui thought of what the eldest sister taught, and said slowly, "Grandma, we have split up, and the household registration is not on a piece of paper." What is usually given to you is our filial piety. As for anything else, we won't give it to you, even if you go to the clan or even the yamen, it's useless to sue us..."

After saying that, he didn't plan to stay any longer, and said bluntly, "Grandparents, you can rest." There was something else going on at home, so I left first. ”

Mrs. Su fell back angrily and slapped her face on the table, "You stop me!" How? I can't educate you now? ”

Su Chenrui turned around and said, "Of course, grandparents can educate, but it is only limited to lip service. ”

Out of the hospital, you can hear Mrs. Su's scolding voice, Su Chenrui smiled sarcastically, shook his head and walked towards Lin Lijun's house...

Su Chenrui saw that the door was locked from the inside, and hurriedly knocked on the door and shouted, "Grandpa Lin, open the door." ”

Lin Lijun hurriedly ran to the courtyard and opened the door. She hadn't seen Su Chenrui a little unfamiliar, so she hurriedly asked, "Who are you?" What's the matter with my grandfather? ”

Old Man Lin's voice came, "Lijun, who is it?" Please come in. ”

Lin Lijun leaned sideways and moved out of the way, "Come in." ”

Su Chenrui walked into the hall and took out the fish and put it on the table, "My eldest sister is Su Rui, my name is Su Chenrui, and my eldest sister asked me to send the fish." ”

When Lin Lijun heard Su Rui's name, her attitude immediately changed, "It turns out that you are the younger brother of Su Rui's sister, why didn't you say it earlier?" ”

Su Chenrui looked at her, "You didn't give me a chance to speak..."

When Old Man Lin heard this, he looked at Lin Lijun reproachfully, "Lijun, don't be so anxious in the future, wait for someone to finish speaking." ”

Lin Lijun nodded embarrassedly, "I know grandpa." ”

He said to Su Chenrui again, "I'm sorry, Brother Chenrui." ”

"It's okay."

"Chenrui, huh? Your sister is so polite, a few days ago she sent watermelons, leeks, and today. How can we be embarrassed to accept it? ”

Su Chenrui: "Grandpa Lin, don't be embarrassed. My sister said, to help people in need. ”

Lin Laozi sighed, "Your eldest sister is really a kind-hearted and good person." ”

In fact, in modern times, Su Rui has never been a person with a good heart, she always feels that "poor people must have something to hate", and those who say how pitiful they are on the Internet, she never believes.

But when she came to this dynasty, although she had also met people full of malice, there were also a lot of people who helped her with kindness, so she felt that she could also remove her colored glasses and see and feel with normal eyes.

Su Chenrui heard someone complimenting Su Rui, and said happily, "Well, my eldest sister is really good." It was especially good for us..."

At this time, Su Qiang also came back with a fish, "Grandpa Lin, my father and mother asked me to bring you a fish to eat for the New Year." ”

Su Chenrui didn't expect to meet a little friend, and said in surprise, "Su Qiang, you also came to send it." ”

Su Qiang was also a little surprised, "Well, you were sent by Sister Su Rui." ”

The two friends looked at each other and smiled, and after sending the fish, they went back to their respective homes.

For dinner, I must eat fish balls, braised ones, and the remaining fish bones are not wasted, and a radish stewed into soup is added, and the scrambled eggs with leeks that were not enough to eat yesterday are not eaten today, and no one eats them today because of the excellent appearance of fish balls.

Su Chenrui was happy to eat, and instructed Su Qiao, "What a coincidence, I will make this braised fish ball tomorrow." ”

Su Qiao looked at his brother with a smile on his face: "Okay......"

The next day was Xiao Nian, and Su Rui's sister and brother took a good bath before going to bed.

As the old saying goes, "don't shave your head in the New Year", "If you have money or not, shave your head for the New Year" and so on. So in ancient times, as long as the New Year's Eve, men, women and children would take a bath, start from scratch, and welcome the New Year cleanly.

Before it got dark, Aunt Hua ran over and told Su Rui, "You must abide by the customs, do you hear?" ”

Su Rui nodded repeatedly, "Got it, got it." ”

Su Rui thought to herself, "In modern times, I have to take a bath every day, but I only wash it once in two or three days in ancient times, which is sloppy enough." You can't take a bath for more than 20 days, and you can't have lice on your body? Alas............"

In the evening, I used the pancreas bought from the county seat some time ago, and everyone washed them inside and out.

As the saying goes, after Laba is the New Year, then after the small year is even more New Year, after the small year, it is less than ten days before the New Year. On this day, people have to clean the inside and outside of the house thoroughly, commonly known as "dusting". In the north, it is called "sweeping", and in the south, it is called "dusting". According to the "Collected Memories", this custom can be traced back to more than 3,000 years ago, when it was a religious ritual for the Han ancestors to drive away epidemic ghosts and pray for good health.

"Dust" and "Chen" are homophonic, so sweeping the dust is to sweep away the old things, say goodbye to the old and welcome the new, and welcome the blessing.

Therefore, the Su family sisters and brothers, after getting up early to eat, began to clean the room, cleaning all the things that needed to be cleaned, inside and out.

In ancient times, people's windows were paper, and after a long time of wind and sun, they would be yellow or damaged, so they usually had to re-paste the windows on this day, of course, there was also glass, but it was expensive, and non-royal relatives and nobles could not buy it.

And sticking window flowers is one of the most popular folk activities, regardless of wealth and poverty, sticking window flowers are also very particular, usually pasting some auspicious patterns, such as fish, sheep, lotus, ingots, Fu Lu Shou, etc., indicating the yearning for a better future.

In fact, the grocery store sells window grille paper, and you can cut it yourself when you buy it, which is much cheaper than the finished window grille, but no one in Su Rui's family can cut it... So Su Rui had no choice but to buy the finished product.

Su Ying looked at all kinds of window flowers and said happily: "Sister, these window flowers are so beautiful, in previous years, there were only fish and sheep cut by the mother and the blessing word window flowers in the old house..."

Su Rui looked at Su Ying's happy little eyes, and said happily: "If you like it, our family will buy it every year in the future." ”

Su Ying nodded heavily and said, "Well......"

After pasting the window grille, it's time to paste the couplet again.

Sticking the Spring Festival couplets from ancient times to the present are very popular, as large as the palace, small to the people of Limin, and the Spring Festival couplets are also very much, the folk customs pay attention to the gods must be pasted, every door and every thing must be pasted, such as the gods, granaries, kitchens, warehouses and other places, usually we pay more attention to the place is the gate of the couplet, in addition to the gods' couplets to express the awe of God, other couplets no matter what the content, generally mean auspicious blessings, smooth wealth, health and well-being, etc.

There is a custom of "men do not worship the moon, women do not sacrifice to the stove", so the sacrifice to the king of the stove is limited to men. Therefore, the Spring Festival couplets and the sacrificial stove have to be completed by Su Chenrui himself.

In ancient times, it was so nonsense, and women couldn't touch anything that had anything to do with God......

The small year is also the day of the folk sacrifice stove. Sacrifice to the stove, that is, to send the god of the stove to heaven, legend, on the twenty-third day of the lunar month every year, that is, the night of the new year, the king of the stove will go to heaven to report to the Jade Emperor.

People will worship the Lord of the Stove devoutly, and usually place fruits, candies, cakes and other offerings on the table in front of the statue of the Lord of the Stove, so that the Lord of the Stove can say more good things in front of the Jade Emperor.

In addition, on the night of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the gods will come to the earth to celebrate the New Year, and the king of the stove will return to the mortal world again, so it is necessary to prepare the ceremony of "receiving the stove" and "receiving the gods".

Su Rui only felt tired, "There are too many rules and regulations in ancient times... Who said that we Chinese people don't have our own traditional customs? Let him come to the ancient times to try ......"

Su Chenrui first removed the old stove god map, and pasted the new stove god map, the stove god picture is also called the stove horse head, and pasted it on the wall on the side of the pot door, and the rule of sticking is that it is low or high, saying "The stove master looks at the pot, and he must owe a lot of debts." Therefore, the "stove horse head" posted by every household is lower than the pot countertop.

Finally, fold seven pockets with yellow paper, which means that the old man of the stove will carry back good things such as gold and silver, peace, happiness, and happiness. Put a string of whips in the yard, come back and light the burning paper, and put the old stove god picture and paper money in the fire to burn, this is to send the stove master to heaven, and then like the stove master three kowtows. Some old people will chant "Master Stove goes to heaven, what do you say, add more good words, less gossip", and some old people will chant "Master Stove will go to heaven soon, bring more gold and more silver, and less troubles and sorrows." "The last meal of the "stove" is to distribute the leftover tribute eaten by the stove master to the family to eat, and touch the blessing of the stove master.

In this way, all the work of the sacrificial stove is completed......
