Chapter 012: The God of the Stove

I once made the grandfather of the good Yang Patriarch take me to the Queen Mother Pan Tao Banquet on March 3, at the banquet I had the honor to see the true face of the stove monarch Si Ming, a white and pure posterior face, the phoenix eyes and nose have a breeze and moon posture, at that time I was obsessed with pinching a face at the top of the Three Realms, most of the good-looking immortals have been my alternative template, this stove Jun Si Ming is the face of the top three among the many alternative templates.

It's just that the stove is very eccentric, every time you go down to the earth, you have to disguise yourself, a good white-faced gentleman has to be an old uncle with a hunchback and a sheep's hair, I looked at the statue of the stove king who has been offered for a year on the shrine of the king of the Qiao family, well, although it is not as good as the hibiscus face of the boss, but it is better than the face of the ravines and ravines that he has changed, and there is a pair of words that symbolize the status of the stove king, "The master of the East Kitchen Division, the god of supervision in the world".

I swept to the two tables in it, and the two plates of stove sugar were round and round in the middle, this sugar didn't look authentic, it must be greasy and sticky, and I didn't know why Si Ming preferred this mouthful. Qiao's family is worthy of everyone in Hangzhou, look at the paper horse paper sedan chair, tsk...... The gold paper and gold leaf are still equal to the body, and the stove monarch is really luxurious to return to heaven! Naturally, there is no such a big sedan horse on the table, and only the grass for food on the road can barely be placed next to the stove sugar - a plate of black beans and licorice and a bowl of water.

Master Qiao was the first to hold a stick of incense, Qiao Shengping fell behind him, and in the back was Mrs. Qiao, the young grandmother and the second lady Qiao Mengluo, and the courtyard was the many servants of the Qiao family.

"The heavens say good things, and the lower realms keep peace!"

With a singing harmony, everyone bowed sincerely in unison, and another "send the god of the stove!" The idol of the stove king was invited, and a tongue of fire licked it and melted into the incense burner with the incense ash.

As soon as the small year passes, it will be the new year, and now the stove god is sending, and this old year is really coming to an end.

Twenty-four, Qiao's house is busy pasting couplets and sticking blessing characters, Qiao Shengping pulled the young grandmother to write couplets in their small courtyard, the young grandmother still didn't give Qiao Shengping much good face, but Qiao Shengping didn't seem to care, he seemed to enjoy this atmosphere of being busy with the young grandmother alone, Qiao Shengping showed the newly written couplet to the young grandmother, and I looked at it through the purse that it read, "Pick down Lian Li and move the new garden, and plant the spring breeze to chase the joyful face"

Qiao Shengping held the red couplet that had just dried the ink and twisted it as if offering a treasure: "Sister Yi, this couplet is pasted on our ...... Is our courtyard good? "Since the young grandmother had dinner with Qiao Shengping the day before yesterday, Qiao Sheng usually shows a stupid man from time to time, and he will restrain one or two when there are many people, but at this time~? He must have forgotten what his face was!

The young grandmother didn't look at it, and said casually, "You can just watch it." ”

Qiao Shengping agreed, but he didn't move, he quietly moved forward half a step, and adjusted the direction of the couplet, so that the handwriting fell as much as possible in the sight of the young grandmother, I was in the two big red banners one by one, and I could see the young grandmother's absent-minded appearance through the gaps, I didn't know what I was thinking, and I didn't even react to Qiao Shengping's blatant approach.

"Sister ......"

"Anything else?" The young grandmother raised her head and looked at Qiao Shengping with hesitant and eager eyes, not understanding what else Qiao Shengping was going to do.

Qiao Shengping took another half step forward, "Don't you see if you don't like the union?" ”

I knew that Qiao Shengping was holding back his mind in his heart, and he didn't write couplets in the study room, but fortunately there was a small bookcase in the outer hall, which seemed to be placed for idle reading on weekdays, Qiao Shengping wrote couplets here with great fanfare, and it was really a loss to Liuzi and Shen'er, so he just cleaned up the space for Qiao Shengping to put his pen down.

Qiao Shengping's couplet is like a serious Spring Festival couplet? It's "Lianli" and "Huanyan", what is this "Lianli"? Who is "Huanyan"? Do you think that the young grandmother hasn't taken a whip at you in the past two days?

I didn't make a sound in my purse, and I didn't dare to make a sound, Liuzi and Shen'er both moved to the door with sharp eyes, if I made a noise at this time, wouldn't I wait to be thrown into the charcoal basin!

"Oh, what's written?" The young grandmother didn't hear the little throbbing hidden in Qiao Shengping's words, so she thought that he was letting herself read the couplet, but when she saw the content of the couplet, the young grandmother held her forehead angrily, "You are a Spring Festival couplet?" Still sticking it on the door of the second courtyard? Don't you blush? ”

I puffed up a bun face in my heart and was angry for the young grandmother. Sticking the second door, not only Master Qiao and Mrs. Qiao, but also other people in the courtyard can see it, or guests passing by their courtyard gate will definitely be able to see it! Qiao Shengping desperately wanted to show off, but the young grandmother was so angry with him that her face turned red, and she was still begging the young grandmother, she really didn't die fast enough!

Qiao Shengping was afraid that the young grandmother couldn't help but rub the couplet, so he hid to the side with both hands, but he was dishonest in his mouth, "Sister Yi, don't be shy!" This is what I hope in my heart, this year's New Year I just feel full of spring breeze! And I really want to make you happy! ”

"You? …… Never mind! Write all the writing paste the inner hall, the second door rewrite. ”

Why is the young grandmother so easy to talk to? In the past two days, although the young grandmother did not drive Qiao Shengping out of the yard as before, it was limited to not being thrown out, and Qiao Shengping did not participate in the opinions of the young grandmother, so Qiao Shengping swiped the existence value in front of the young grandmother, but I didn't expect the couplet to be revealed like this? Not only did the young grandmother not tear it up for Qiao Shengping, but also let it be posted in the inner hall?

Qiao Shengping got the order, the eyes were like lighting two red lanterns, happy to hang on the young grandmother, he beckoned the six sons to paste couplets, and instructed the pendant to grind and cut paper, the wolf pen was stained with gold and thick ink, the Spring Festival couplets, poured "Fu" ' jumped on the paper under Qiao Shengping's pen, and ran all over the courtyard in full swing.

Although I am a bronze mirror that has lived for 8,000 years, but the concept of the real year is today, dyed by the smell of this year, I suddenly understand the state of Qiao Shengping's second disease, just like he said, this lively and lively spring is his heart, hoping to spread in front of the young grandmother's eyes and slowly drill into her life, I think my eyes should be good, the young grandmother is looking at the word "Fu" written by Qiao Shengping, right? Hee-hee-hee-hee......

In the 200 years I spent in the Lu Kee Mirror Shop, the store would close for a few days every New Year, and it would not open again until after the fifth day of the first lunar month.

At Qiao's house, I had a different feeling about the New Year.
