In the festival, those wishful dishes should really be cultivated more, if they are sent to each family, wouldn't it be more surprising than any gift? You know, in this harsh winter, it is not easy to eat crispy vegetarian dishes.

It's a pity that I won't be able to send it tomorrow, so Banniang plans to pass the New Year's Day, ask my sister-in-law and Qi Niang to help, cultivate more, and send some to my friends who are familiar with each other, as well as relatives in the clan.

A few people strolled to the front of Guangci Temple, saw all kinds of stalls on both sides of the street, it was much more lively than the usual night market, and there were also those who took advantage of the night to set up a stage and hang lanterns to play a hundred plays, except for Shiro Goro, a few people couldn't squeeze in, so they looked at it from a distance, Banniang smiled and asked: "Fifth brother, I heard that there are puppet shows and female sumo performances in the hundred operas, I don't know where to see it?" ”

Gorou said: "If you want to see it, it should be here in the afternoon after tomorrow." ”

When Banniang heard this, she hurriedly smiled and said, "Then we will definitely come over the day after tomorrow." ”

I heard that when the female sumo wrestlers perform, they are all barearmed, Banniang is very curious about this, you must know that in this era, let alone bare-chested, but any woman, untidy clothes will be ridiculed and despised, but this female sumo wrestler, can be open in public with open chest and back, I have to say, this is an unusual event. And Banniang heard that even in the palace of Bianjing City, there are female Xiangpu performances from time to time.

Wulang was so happy when he heard that she could come to see a show, and he felt that the eight girls had no knowledge, so he said with some disdain: "If you really like to watch it, go back and wait for your fifth brother and I will be in Jinshi in two or three years, and I can stay as a Beijing official in the future, and the fifth brother invites you to go to Beijing to see, if you want to say that this is lively, where in the world can you compare to Bianjing?" During the New Year's Day and New Year, even the heavenly family will also climb the Xuande Tower to have fun with the people, and the lights and mountains in Bianliang City are like the sea, and all the plays are played, what do you want to see? ”

Banniang hurriedly patted her ass: "The eighth sister is waiting for the fifth brother to be a Beijing official in the future." In fact, the Jingguan is no more, in the eyes of the eighth sister, the fifth brother will be a knight and worship the prime minister in the future......"

The more Gorou heard what she said, the more outrageous it became, Rao was thick-skinned enough, and he was busy blushing and coughing, and said, "Hey, it's over, it's over." ”

Yun Xian heard that they were funny, so he covered his mouth and smiled on the side, and followed: "Speaking of this, I don't know what happened to my brother and the eldest brother and the second brother in the capital?" If the three elder brothers can be inscribed on the gold list in the spring of next year, the grandmother will be very happy. ”

The Zeng family, although they don't say it, who doesn't want the three boys to be admitted to the Jinshi? After listening to Yun Xian's words, several people expressed their belief that the three brothers would definitely be able to go to high school.

Shiro said: "It's a pity that I didn't go with Gorou, turned over the year, and in April, the semester of my three-hundred-day state school with Gorou should also be full, and when the time comes, I will also go out to travel, and I will have a long experience. ”

Xiao Jiu and Jue'er were envious, hoping that they would grow up soon and fly out of the house.

Even the three sisters also have expectations, but unfortunately they are daughters, and it is inconvenient to travel, so the family will definitely not ask them to go out.

Banniang smiled and said: "I look forward to my brothers coming out, and I will live in various places as officials, and I will also invite our sisters to play, so that we will also have the opportunity to go out and see how the world is outside." ”

Needless to say, Shiro Goro said that even Xiao Jiu would work hard to realize the wishes of his sisters.

After watching the juggling for a while, passing by the stalls selling snacks, there were roast mutton, several people couldn't stand the strong fragrance, couldn't help but also bought a few skewers and nibbled while walking, from time to time they turned to the front of the lanterns, the shelves were hung with a dazzling array of colorful lights, the brothers and sisters each picked a few of their favorites, several people with change, together to pay the lamp money, a total of ten consistent six hundred Wen, fortunately Banniang brought two five pieces of Jiaozi, this is the payment. Looking at the nearly thirty lanterns, a few people were worried, how could they get this back?

The peddler smiled and said, "The guest officer doesn't have to worry, just tell the address of the house, and the villain will ask his family to send it to your house." ”

Although it is a small business, it is all in the same city, and there are not many cunning people, and most of the traders are still very honest. Besides, if you are really deceived, there is such a big place in Nanfeng City, and you don't have to worry about not being able to find it, Gorou told the address of the hawker's home, and the hawker heard that it was the Zeng family, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be the son of the famous family of Qiuyu, you don't have to say it, when it comes to other people's homes, the villain may not know, but in your house, who in Nanfeng City doesn't know?" The young ladies just went around and kept a few who had not arrived home, and the villain sent the lanterns. ”

Wulang thanked him, and led his younger brothers and sisters to continue to move forward, but he didn't want to touch the little Chen brother who was in the same courtyard as Uncle Qiao was also setting up a stall, Banniang's sharp eyes saw it, so he stepped forward to say hello, Xiao Chen saw that it was the young lady of the Zeng family, greeted warmly, took a toy to coax the child, and handed it to Xiao Shi Niang: "Little Miss take it to play." ”

Banniang said curiously: "Didn't you hear Brother Qiao say that you are helping in the Qiao family's workshop now?" How did you set up a stall? ”

Brother Xiao Chen smiled embarrassedly: "Yes, it is also the blessing of Miss Eight, now not only Uncle Qiao and Brother Qiao are living well, but my Brother Xiao Chen has followed the light, this is not a holiday in the New Year's Festival, I am idle, I can't sit still, so I will resume my old business, not to fight for a few money, just to be lively in the New Year's Festival." ”

Banniang felt that this little Chen brother was not only enthusiastic, but also very interesting, so she asked him if he could become a parent, how is the family, Xiao Chen was embarrassed to get up: "Because my life is stable now, I took my father and mother to live together, a few days ago, the neighbor's Aunt Wang also told me about family affairs, just wait for the year to turn over the spring, and get married." ”

Banniang was busy congratulating, saying that when Brother Xiao Chen got married, he must go to drink the wedding wine, and Brother Xiao Chen thanked him with a smile. Banniang asked the Qiao family's ancestors and grandchildren how these days, Xiao Chen said with a smile: "Okay, Uncle Qiao is okay, it's just that Brother Qiao is a scholar in the end, and now that his background is away from his hometown, he can't just lose the little industry he has created and return to his hometown, but there is no one to recommend him, it is not good to study in the state school, so he can't take the scientific examination, Brother Qiao is okay, in Qiao Bo's heart, it is a pity." ”

As he spoke, his face couldn't help but show regret.

The Great Song Dynasty stipulates that the scholars must study in the state school for 300 school days before they are eligible for reference, and to enter the state school, they must be a local household registration to become a student, that is, Shiro and Goro, and they are also recommended by the Lord Zhizhou in person, so they can enter Linchuan Prefecture.

Banniang thought about it, so she kept her heart, isn't her father quite familiar with Liu Kang, the Zhizhou Lord of Linchuan? If she can find a way to get her father to solve the problem of Qiao Junsheng's admission to the state, when she opens a carpentry shop in the future, wouldn't it be more certain to ask Uncle Qiao for help?

But this kind of thing, she didn't dare to guarantee the ticket, besides, if Qiao Junsheng's own books were not read, with his father's character, he might not be willing to recommend them, so he only smiled and said: "Brother Qiao is a blessed person, there is always a way to come in the future." ”

After saying a few more words, he said goodbye to Brother Xiao Chen, a few brothers and sisters and two little nephews, played until almost midnight, seeing that Gong'er was sleepy, Xiao Shiyunzhen also fell asleep in Wulang's arms, and then planned to go home.

When I got home, I found that the family had not slept yet, the main house was brightly lit, and they were talking together, while Zhu and his daughter-in-law Wu were frying melon seeds and other dry goods in the kitchen. A few people went home, just eating the first Cheng'er.

After talking for a while, the old lady saw that the hour was not early, and that she would be busy tomorrow, so she let everyone disperse and go to sleep.

Jue'er obediently went to get the lantern, because there was no moonlight, and there was snow on the ground, afraid that Mr. Chen would slip, he personally carried the lantern and sent Mr. Chen back to the hospital.

Early the next morning, Banniang first went to the old lady to ask for peace, and then planned to go to the kitchen to help, and by the way, she talked to her sister-in-law about cooking more Ruyi dishes and giving them to relatives and friends.

Unexpectedly, she was left in the house by the old lander to help her rub her shoulders and back, and asked Liuniang and Yunxian, who lived with her, to go to the kitchen to help her granddaughter-in-law.

When Liuniang and Yunxian went out, the old lady lay on the bed and said to Banniang, who was helping to rub her shoulders: "Those things sent by Nineteen Lang, your mother has let me see them after she was reorganized yesterday, Banniang, you tell your grandmother, do you know what Nineteen Lang's identity is?" ”
