Su Chenrui recalled the dishes that Su Qiao said, and then said slowly, "Eight big bowls, the eldest sister prepares a table of dishes according to three catties of meat, half a chicken, half a rabbit, a fish, and five eggs, as for what to do, I only know that there are braised pork, braised chicken, braised rabbit, braised fish and finally scrambled eggs with leeks." ”

Old Man Su was very satisfied with the four meat dishes, but he was surprised that there were leeks now, "How much does it cost to have such a table?" ”

Su Chenrui, "The eldest sister probably calculated, a table of meat dishes plus rice noodles costs about two hundred yuan." Twenty-five tables is five taels of silver. ”

"And wine, at least thirty jars of wine must be prepared, one jar needs a hundred wen, and thirty jars need three taels of silver, so that it adds up to eight taels of silver."

Su Rui specially explained to him that he must tell Old Man Su how much money he spent.

Old Man Su looked at Su Chenrui with his eyes for the first time, and he suddenly felt that this grandson was very good, look at how clear this account is? Just like he was back then.

Su Chenrui didn't know that Old Man Su thought he looked like him, otherwise he would have to be scared to death, this was an account that her eldest sister taught him to calculate, what does it have to do with him?

Old Man Su saw that there was no problem, so he was about to go back, but when he arrived at the door, he stopped and turned around to ask.

"Are you ready for tonight?"

Su Chenrui nodded, "Everything is ready." ”

Old Man Su left satisfied.

Shangliang Day will be tomorrow, Su Chenrui sent away Old Man Su, he ran all over the village, and told one by one that he would go to Liang tomorrow, and Aunt Su's family had Su Changle go to the county seat to inform first, as for Su Yi's family, just to buy wine, he told Cao Ji'an directly.

Su Ruiding's pig has been slaughtered this morning, and it was sent early, or Chen Dong.

There are only a few hens in the chicken house, and the rest are all chickens, Su Rui asked Su Changle to order fish two days ago, and by the way, he also ordered fifteen chickens, and there were more than twenty rabbits in the house, and it was enough to slaughter twenty.

Vegetables can't be bought in the county now, and at least there are cabbage, radish, and leeks in the space at home.

After lunch, Hua's and Lin's and Wang's and others came to help, chopping the pork that is not well cooked, the pig's head is stewed in white water first, the pig's body is chopped open, and the chickens and rabbits are also made into semi-finished products first, and the fish can be raised for another day and slaughtered tomorrow, so that it is more fresh.

Su Rui was afraid that the lack of oxygen would cause them to die, so she secretly added some water from the spatial spirit spring, and saw that the fish, which had no energy, immediately became active.

Thinking that the tofu had not yet been decided, she hurriedly asked Su Ying to go to the tofu workshop in the village to order two plates of tofu.

In the evening, everything was almost ready, and Su Rui invited the Hua family to eat at home.

"Auntie, uncle, will you eat at my house tonight? In the evening, I happened to attend the warm beam ceremony of my house. ”

Hua Shi waved his hand, "No, I'm going to come to the banquet tomorrow anyway, it's okay to eat at that time, and we'll come over to watch the ceremony after we finish eating." ”

Su Qiang's mother, Mao's also said: "Yes, Rui girl, you're welcome, we will definitely eat more tomorrow, this will definitely cook at home, and we will come over in a while." ”

Su Rui saw that she couldn't keep it, so she had to say, "Okay, then I'll wait for you to come over." ”

"Haha, okay, wait for us."

In the past, the construction of a house by a farmer was regarded as a happy event, and the day of "Shangliang" was a day to entertain relatives and friends to "make wine". One is the warm beam stage; The second is the process of putting on the beam.

Beam warming is done after dinner the day before the beam is raised. First of all, in the heart of the new house that has not been built, put two benches, and then put the "middle beam" on the swastika cake, and then tie the red and green cloth strips on both sides of the middle beam, the red cloth is on the big side, the green cloth is on the small side, generally the east is large, the west is small, and then a flower is tied in the middle of the middle beam, and the big red flower made of red cloth.

Su Rui and the others definitely couldn't lift a beam of several hundred catties, so Chen Cai and the others helped set up the beam early, and Su Chenrui only needed to put the prepared fruit snacks in place and tie the red and green cloth strips.

"Sister, tie it up."

Su Rui nodded and asked Chen Cai to step forward to help with the next step.

"Uncle Chen Cai, it's up to you next."

Chen Cai stepped forward, handed the firecracker to Su Chenrui, lit the firecracker, and then lit the yellow paper warm beam under the middle beam.

At this time, Chen Caimu began to chant:

"As soon as the firecrackers let go, the Wen station came to the west of the Wu station;

Hundreds of civil and military officials stand on both sides, and future generations wear court clothes.

On the thirteenth day of May, there was a big flood, and the cypress drifted to his hometown;

Master Luban played a horse and smelled the fragrance of cypress on the roadside.

Master Luban dismounted and looked, four golden dragons were nine zhang long;

The first golden dragon is a treasure pillar, and the second can be a purple gold beam;

Three of four is good and can make trusses and rafters.

The chisel chisels the descendants prosper, and the axes chop pieces into pairs;

Planers hug children and grandchildren, and wooden buckets bend rulers to race mandarin ducks.

The two ends dig the mandarin duck tenon, and the golden rooster flower is inserted in the beam;

The mandarin duck mortise came to the golden rooster flower, and the owner toasted me to offer beams.

A glass of wine came to salute Liangtou, and Wen Bai Xiang came to Wu Fenghou;

two glasses of wine to salute Liang's waist, take off the blue shirt and change the purple robe;

Three glasses of wine to salute Liangwei, and the owner is as clear as water.

Buy land and create a family business, and your children and grandchildren will be rich;

Three glasses of wine have been saluted, and the owner craftsman is blessed with longevity.

How rich and rich come to live a long life, just wait for the dragon of the Ming Dynasty to raise its head. ”

This is considered the completion of the "warm beam" phase.

Hua Shi was amazed, she also participated in the "Warm Beam" ceremony twice in Sujia Village, both of which were very simple, tie a strip of red and green cloth, order a yellow paper, and casually offer some fruit to the house god to eat, even if it is over.

Mao's personality was hearty, and he asked directly: "Can this warm beam ceremony be so troublesome?" ”

Chen Cai smiled, "It's not troublesome, there are still some people who have to sing the seven-day ceremony of the big families in Yuncheng, and every day is different." ”

Mao was shocked, "Seven days? Oh, my God. It's really a toss-up. ”

Su Rui covered her mouth and smiled, "Uncle, the rules are different in every place, and the poor are still different from the rich. ”

Lin nodded, she often traveled back and forth to the county because of "Su Ji", and also found that there were many people living in the county, and there were also many poor people, who couldn't afford to buy vegetables, and couldn't afford to eat meat once a month, so they were not as good as the people in their village, and they could also grow some vegetables, raise pigs, and raise chickens.

"Yes, I used to envy the people in the city, but now I don't envy them at all."

Mao was surprised, "Why? How nice is the city? ”

Mao dreamed of moving into the city and becoming a city person, but his wallet didn't allow it.

Hua sighed, "When you see the people who are usually high up and boast of being in the city, and they are all picking up the cabbage that we usually feed the pigs to eat, you know why we don't envy being city people." ”

Mao's, Wang's "..............."
