Chapter Ninety-Seven: A New Amulet

Xiao Nuan happily returned to the small courtyard, and saw that his mother and Xiaocao were packing up their things, so they also rolled up their sleeves and stepped forward to help.

Grandma Lin is a Lisuo person, the house is clean, and there are not many sundries, plus the Lin family has cleaned up and taken away a batch, and there is nothing left. The Qin family put Lin Lai's milk things neatly into the east room, but they didn't even fill a double-door cabinet.

After cleaning up, the Qin clan stood in the middle of the house and was still a little unconscious, "It's only been a long time, we have a yard in the city." Xiao Nuan, why does my mother feel unsure? ”

Xiao Nuan knew what her mother was thinking, "Let's go shopping tomorrow and buy some things that are commonly used at home and put them in this courtyard, so that we can use them for rest in the future." ”

If you don't clean up the small courtyard, there will be no feeling of "this is my yard", Qin Shi felt that this was the case, but still shook his head and said, "I'll wait for your Grandma Lin's first seven days." ”

According to the custom of the Great Zhou, on the night of the first seven days, they should prepare a hearty vegetarian meal for the deceased family members at home, so that the souls of the deceased who returned home could enjoy it, so on the night of the first seven days, Xiao Nuan and the others had to come and live here.

On the day of the first seven days, the Qin family prepared a vegetarian meal with four dishes and one soup at home, put it in a basket and took it to Grandma Lin's courtyard. Originally, on such a day, the Qin family didn't plan to take Xiaocao there, but Xiaocao's second aunt Li took the child to her mother's house to help harvest the crops, and Xiaocao had no one to entrust, so she had to take it with her.

Of course, along with the rhubarb.

Xiao Nuan looked at the money bag hanging around Rhubarb's neck and "picked up" from the weird-tempered old Taoist who protected the media, and couldn't help but look at the sky and sigh.

I don't know why, this money bag has never been filled with meat bones and no meat smell, rhubarb actually took a fancy to it, and had to hold it when he slept, Xiaocao saw that it liked it so much, so he simply hung it around his neck, but he didn't expect this product to be quite happy. Qin couldn't see it, and braided a sturdy and beautiful rope for Rhubarb to hang around his neck.

As a result, rhubarb became what it is now, and Xiao Nuan felt a little ...... walking with it Lose face.

There is no that, just because I came out with this goods, the return rate is too high!

When the family entered the small courtyard, the first thing they saw was a few bricks in the middle of the courtyard. You don't have to ask to know that this is the Lin family's "filial sons and grandsons" thrown in, looking at the traces on the ground, it should have been thrown in for a while.

Qin looked left and right in fear, and hurriedly pulled the two children into the house, Xiao Nuan comforted her mother and Xiaocao, and asked them to wait in the house with peace of mind, she stood in the courtyard by herself, pointed to the brick and said to the big ecliptic, "Go smell it." ”

Rhubarb went over and sniffed.

"Can you remember the taste?"

"Wang!"

"Let's go, go out for a walk with me."

Xiao Nuan went out with Rhubarb, and first went to the Yamen Street Division to explain the situation to Lord Wang Zheng, and then told her plan.

Wang Zheng immediately ordered two errands and asked them to go out with Xiao Nuan to catch thieves.

Coincidentally, these two yacha are Xiao Nuan's acquaintances.

Acquaintances are easy to do. The two followed Xiao Nuan to a small shop near the courtyard to eat snacks, while Rhubarb hid on the corner of the street, waiting to catch the thief.

"How did the girl know that the thief would come back today?" Yacha asked curiously.

Xiao Nuan smiled, "Today is Grandma Lin's first seven, and the Lin family knows that my mother and I will definitely come to the courtyard to deliver food and paper to Grandma Lin." They couldn't let go of such a rare opportunity, if the bricks in front of them were thrown in to vent their anger, then the bricks in the back were the main course - to scare or simply hurt people! ”

Yacha nodded, and under the guidance of Xiao Nuan, he talked about the interesting things of the yamen for a while, especially the matter of the new Zhixian Lou Xiao Qian and his family, and then heard the rhubarb outside the door cry "Wangwang".

"Dead dog, let's kill you again!" When the two men of the Lin family were carrying bricks and whispering to scare Rhubarb, Xiao Nuan came out with a yacha and arrested a person with stolen goods.

When the imposing Lin family saw the official errand of the yamen, they immediately coaxed again. When the yacha took these two people away, he couldn't help but look at the rhubarb a few times, "Miss Chen, what is this dog hanging around its neck?" ”

...... Knowing that he would be asked, Xiao Nuan replied seriously, "That's a talisman." ”

...... The two yamen didn't know how to answer, so they escorted people back to the yamen dryly.

Xiao Nuan took Rhubarb back to the small courtyard, and explained to her mother that the Lin family had been caught and taught a lesson, and there would be no more incidents, and she couldn't help asking, "Mother, the money bag in Rhubarb's neck, can you not be so dazzling?" ”

Although he felt that it was quite festive for Rhubarb to hang a money bag, Qin still untied it without saying a word, and shrunk the money bag into a walnut-sized cloth ball before hanging it up.

Xiao Nuan felt that the big stone blocked in her heart fell to the ground, "Mother is really amazing, it's so pleasing to the eye!" ”

Qin couldn't help but flick her daughter's forehead, "When will you be able to learn needlework well, and your mother should be able to wake up with a smile when she sleeps." ”

Xiao Nuan secretly stuck out her tongue, and it was more difficult for her to do needlework than managing ten shops.

It was getting dark, and the Qin family put the food on the table of the eight immortals in the hall, lit incense and candles, burned a paper ladder in the basin, and asked Grandma Lin to follow the "ladder" to the sky to reunite with her family after eating.

Then, the two sisters were taken by their mothers to the West House kang and covered with quilts to sleep.

It was not yet time for them to sleep, and Xiao Nuan and Xiao Cao were not sleepy, but they still lay obediently in the bed, even covering their heads.

It is said that Grandma Lin's soul will return home tonight to visit and eat, and they, as Grandma Lin's relatives, must not let her see it, lest she remember her relatives and not go away, which will affect her ascension to heaven or reincarnation.

If that were the case, it would be a great sin.

Xiaocao and Xiaonuan hid in the quilt and listened to the chirping of insects outside the window, and slowly fell asleep. Qin listened to the movement of the outhouse, and only fell asleep in the second half of the night.

After Xiaocao woke up in the morning, she grabbed her mother and chattered, "Xiaocao dreamed of Grandma Lin, she gave me candy to eat, and said that she was leaving, let me listen to my mother." ”

Qin Shi also wiped her tears, "My mother also dreamed that your Grandma Lin and Grandpa Lin and the two children were finally reunited." ”

After speaking, the two looked at Xiao Nuan and wondered what she dreamed of.

Can it be said that she dreamed of working overtime to check the business order before crossing over, and how much she could get a share of how much money she made for the company? Xiao Nuan shook her head resolutely, "I slept very well, I didn't dream anything." ”

The Qin family didn't think it was a problem, "Your Grandma Lin preferred Xiaocao when she was alive, and it's not strange to give her a dream." ”

...... Xiao Nuan looked at the sky speechlessly.

"Okay, let's clean up, have a meal and go buy some things for the house, and in a few days it's time to change the thick bedding." The Qin family went out to buy cloth after breakfast.

Buying cloth is naturally the most cost-effective way to go to your own store. The family went to Jinxiu Cloth Village to buy three sets of quilts and bread, Qin hesitated for a while, felt that it was cost-effective to buy more, gritted his teeth and added three sets, and simply replaced the old bedding that had been used at home for more than ten years with a new one.
