Zheng took the bowl that Xiao Qingyue had eaten outside.

Suddenly I thought of something I forgot to say, and came back and said, "By the way, I forgot to ask you, in addition to washing three, we children have to hold a banquet, some people do it for 12 days, some people do it for the full moon, and some people do it for 9 days, which day are you and the third child going to do it?" ”

Those who come to wash the three are generally close relatives such as the mother's family, and those who usually have contacts but are not very close are generally feasted on the 12th day or the full moon wine.

"How come there are still twelve days and nine days?" Xiao Qingyue really hadn't heard of this custom.

"Why not?" Zheng also said, "In fact, most of the full moon wine, if it is held for 12 or 9 days, it is necessary to invite people to have a meal, and ordinary people are not happy. ”

"What do you mean?"

"Nine or twelve days, when you get up early in the morning, you have to cook a big pot of Erhe noodles, and you have to put lard eggs in the noodles, and this noodles are for the people in the village to eat."

Zheng explained to her, "We don't invite the villagers to hold a serious banquet, but it is a happy event to add ding to the family, so we cook some noodles on the morning of the banquet to make the villagers happy." But a few years ago, people were poor and didn't want people to get this cheap, so they changed to full moon wine, saying to the outside world that there was no rule for cooking noodles in full moon wine. Now we are here, and the twelve or nine days are all in good conditions at home, and we don't care about that pot of noodles. ”

This will He Jinhuai just went to the Xiao family to deliver the eggs back, the people in the village can let the next person to deliver it, and the Yue family has to go in person.

Hearing her words, she said, "Do a full moon wine, the children are too young for twelve days, and they have to come to see the children at the banquet, so many people are noisy, if there is another person who is not in good health, he will be infected by Tian Tian again." As for the custom of boiling noodles, can I still care about that little thing? The full moon wine also cooks noodles, and when the time comes, let people cook three or four pots outside, and whoever wants to eat it will serve it themselves. ”

"Since you say so, I'll let people notify you when you go back, your own relatives and friends, you remember to inform others." Zheng said, "If you don't give advance notice, they will come to the door on the 12th day." ”

Xiao Qingyue smiled, "I advise you not to cook noodles, otherwise you will break the rules again." People only do the full moon wine in order not to cook it, you do it, the next time someone has a child, what do you let the family do? To boil or not to cook? ”

"What do I do?" He Jinhuai said, "Besides, isn't it stupid to compare with me if you have nothing to do?" ”

Zheng echoed and said, "That's what the third child said. ”

Both mother and son said so, and Xiao Qingyue didn't say more.

——

On the third day, Meng's, An's, Huang and others all came, and under the auspices of the midwife, they bathed the two children to remove dirt, and An's and others got some gold and silver peanuts and threw them in the basin to pray for the blessings of the two little dolls.

Looking at the more and more gold and silver grains in the bathtub, the midwife's mouth was almost behind her ears.

When she delivered the baby the day before yesterday, she saw that it was two girls, and she was heartbroken at that time, because according to the convention, the boy who delivered the baby was rewarded more, and the girl was rewarded.

But who knows, when she left, Min Jiangbo actually wrapped her in a red envelope of five taels of silver, which was more generous than those who gave birth to male babies.

There is so much money in this pot today, hey, the money from the midwifery family is enough for her to live happily for three or two years.

Thinking of this, I was a little more sincere when I read the greetings.
