At this hour, most of the guests came, and it happened that Zhang Wenpo also came, so he began to wash three.

Because it's a farmer's house, it's not that complicated. There are no statues of gods in the farmhouse, so Zhang Wenpo made a symbolic bow to the East three times. He also placed in the courtyard a copper basin containing a soup made of acacia sticks and mugwort leaves, as well as all the ceremonial articles. then took over Gu Chengyu from Gu's father, and the prelude to "washing three" began.

The Gu family took the lead in adding a small spoonful of water to the basin from Father Gu, and then put some coins, which was called "adding a basin". Father Gu threw ten copper plates in it. It was Boss Gu's turn, and Gu Fang's family added five copper plates on behalf of the boss, which were all given by Father Gu in advance. The eldest and second family have five copper plates, and they are thrown away when they add pots.

Then He stepped forward and threw two copper plates into the water. The corner of Gu's father's eyes twitched, this second family, he could give five wen, she only added two wen, and also looked down three wen, it was just a shallow eyelid, and even this kind of money was picked.

When the family was finished, it was the turn of the clan that was close to them. Gu's side didn't come, only Gu Changqing's brother came. The patriarch Gu Changsong's mother-in-law, that is, Gu's father's sister-in-law, stepped forward to add eight texts, Gu's sister-in-law's eldest daughter-in-law Zeng added five texts, and the second daughter-in-law was also five texts. At this point, it is the end of the clan, and it is the turn of close relatives and neighbors.

"Yo, evergreen! This is generous! I can't imagine that your in-laws still eat bran vegetables! A woman with hanging eyes stood next to Ho with her sleeves folded. It turned out that the woman was He's mother and Gu's father's cousin-in-law.

Father Gu looked at the woman who spoke, "Cousin-in-law, you also know that our family is not well-off, and this is a kid, what kind of money does it take to marry a daughter-in-law and have children in the future?" Besides, it's a big deal for the baby to wash three today, and you can't be sloppy, and you can't feel sorry for the money, right? ”

Your daughter took five texts and only gave two texts, I haven't taken care of it, one of your own mothers still came to my house to point fingers, and she was very lenient, and Daddy Gu deeply felt that the second daughter-in-law and her mother were a virtue.

"Evergreen! Sister-in-law knows that you are willing to spend money for the baby, but I really don't have any money. No, our family Shangen lost money in business a few days ago, and the family's savings were filled in by him, you can take care of it more today, and when you have money in the future, I will definitely give more baby and his uncle. "It's the turn of relatives to add pots, and this Wang family is busy shrinking to the back.

Originally, as a mother-in-law, I must add some more, if you don't add it, it's not good for others to say anything to your face, but it's not necessarily what to say behind your back, but it's not good if you don't add some cool words, right? And the mother-in-law of the old family in front of her, everyone knows that the family is living a tight life, and she has also added three articles! And all the people began to whisper.

"This is a rare happy event, someone will come up with some moths, and save some face for your daughter-in-law and son-in-law!" Gu Changsong's mother-in-law, the Yang family, just can't get used to the Wang family, and always wants to take advantage of it, and wants to stir up peace on a happy day today.

Wang was a little angry, and wanted to reply again, but raised his eyes and saw that his son-in-law was looking at him with a frown, but he didn't reply after all. The girl is still living in another house, although she is not angry with her father's partiality, but it is not good to touch people's heads on such a day.

The Wang family over there died down, and everyone here began to add pots, and the farmers were not rich, so they didn't lose much money. If someone close to them throws away one or two articles, the neighbors throw some peanuts, dates, chestnuts and the like.

Zhang Wenpo doesn't care about the lawsuit over there, but the more she threw into the basin, the more the better, she also has something to say, what "early son", "even give birth to a noble son", you just pour water into it, she will also say "long flowing water, smart and smart".

Gu Chengyu listened to someone's interjection over there, and after listening to Zhang Wenpo's auspicious words, he knew that the next highlight was coming. Gu Chengyu also understood this process in his previous life, because Gu Chengyu also likes to read novels, and he usually tosses with a baby in his arms.

Sure enough, after "adding a pot", Zhang Wenpo picked up the mallet and stirred it into the basin, saying: "One stir, two stirs, three stirs, my brother leads my younger brother to run." Seventy, eighty, crooked, naughty, sighing and snoring!" Only then did he start bathing Gu Chengyu. As soon as Gu Chengyu entered the cold water, he was excited, and immediately screamed.

Zhang Wenpo watched the little baby "ring the basin". While washing, he recited the greeting, "Wash your hair first, and be a prince; After washing the waist, one generation is taller than the other; Wash the eggs, as the county; Wash the ditch and do Zhizhou". Then, he lit it with mugwort leaf balls, used ginger slices as a support, and placed it on Gu Chengyu's head, symbolically broiling it. Comb his hair and dress him up again, "three combs, two bunches, and a red top when you grow up; Draw eyebrows on the left, sideburns on the right, and find a daughter-in-law in the four villages; Brush your teeth, rinse your mouth, and talk to people so as not to be embarrassed. He rolled an egg on Gu Chengyu's face again, "The egg is rolling on the face, the face is like egg skin, the willow is red like white, and he is really a lover." "After washing, re-tie Gu Chengyu up, and gently hit his body three times with a green onion, "One dozen smart, two dozen smart." Then he asked someone to throw the onion on the roof. Pick up the scale and compare, "Although the scale is small, it weighs a thousand catties." Pick up the lock and make three gestures, "When you grow up, your head is tight, your feet are tight, and your hands are tight."

Then put Gu Chengyu in the tea tray, put the copper coin prepared by Gu's father in advance and put it on Gu Chengyu's body, and said: "The left is gold, the right is silver, you can't spend it, reward people." Finally, he used a small mirror to shine on his buttocks, saying: "Use the treasure mirror, shine on his belly, shit during the day, and be clean and clean."

At this point, the washing of the three is over. Everyone rushed up again, surrounding Gu Chengyu and praising him for his good looks. Especially when his mother changed Gu Chengyu into a red dress today, it made him even more cute.

Zhang Wenpo hugged Gu Chengyu back to Gu's father, and was busy packing up her things, with a smile on her face, this Gu family is quite generous, and there must be thirty or forty Wen! There are so many fruits, this trip is not wrong, it is more than the money for the delivery, and this is a good job to take in the grandmother. While cleaning up, I remembered the little baby I was holding just now, it was really good-looking, and I hadn't seen a baby in any family look so good! But when I think of Lu's beautiful face, I don't think it's strange, my son is a lot with his mother.

The Wang family, who was sour at the beginning, stepped forward again, looked at Gu Chengyu in Gu's father's hand, and saw that the child followed Lu's peach blossom eyes, black eyes were black and bright, straight nose bridge, red mouth, and snow-white skin, not like a newborn baby, let alone a baby that could be born in a farmer's family. I couldn't help but feel depressed, and her poor girl was gone, and the vixen came into the house. Secretly took a sip, what about the birth? Isn't it a lifetime to stay in this poor lump?

Gu Chengyu was also a little tired from tossing, and was carried back to the room by Gu's father to rest.
