Chapter 32: New Houses Built
Look at the beams of the house, and then go to the tile. It's about to be winter, Jiang Yu'er thought about the ceiling, so she found a few villagers to help cut trees and make wooden planks last time.
On the fifteenth day of the lunar month, the new house of the Jiang family was completed. The second uncle, Jiang Erzhu, looked at the people in the village and decided to move to a new house on the twentieth day of the lunar month. Of course, this move to a new house also has to burn the bottom of the pot, and the whole village comes to join in the fun. It can also be regarded as adding popularity to the Jiang family's new house.
In the twenty-third year of Dinghe, Layue, the northern part of the Great Moon Country won a complete victory for the first time in a hundred years. Repelled the soldiers from Beiwu for hundreds of miles, the emperor Longyan Dayue, and after asking, he found out that it was the flying dragon general Luo Yunshuo who didn't know where to get something to keep out the cold, so that the Dayue soldiers won a complete victory.
Of course, these things have little to do with these ordinary people living in small mountain villages, they eat when they should eat, and they work when they should work.
After the Jiang family moved to the new house, they began to prepare New Year's goods. The little earth dog grows very quickly, for several months, but for the whole village dogs, it is the largest. It seems that it hasn't grown yet, and it should be able to grow a little more.
The three brothers and sisters thought that they were going to the town to handle the New Year's goods, and the little earth dog was tied to the courtyard gate. A pair of innocent eyes can see that people's hearts are soft.
"Sister! Why don't we bring Seth with us? Jiang Ziming is most concerned about his little earth dog, looking at its pitiful appearance, he wants to take it away wherever he goes.
Jiang Yu'er glared at him and said, "Seth is so big, do you want to take it to the street and scare others?" We won't be there for long, and we'll be back when we buy good things. ”
Jiang Amao nodded while driving the ox cart, agreeing with his sister's statement. Jiang Ziming saw that no one agreed with his statement, so he could only reluctantly say goodbye to his puppy.
When they arrived in the town, the three brothers and sisters bought a bunch of everything they wanted to buy for the New Year, and they also bought a lot of melon seeds, peanuts and candy. I also bought a lot of red paper to make red envelopes. The three siblings bought some cotton cloth and went home to make new clothes.
Jiang Yu'er is relatively light in color, and the two boys are mainly royal blue and black. Jiang Yu'er has thought about it, their family conditions are like this, they can't compare food and clothing with others, but they can't be too shabby, no.
She thought, there was nothing to do for the New Year anyway. Find the second aunt to help cut it, no matter how slow you are, you can make two clothes in a few days, right?
Because the Chinese New Year is approaching, there are many more people on the street than usual. The hawkers are also working harder. As soon as Jiang Ziming arrived on the street, his eyes never stopped. Holding the rock sugar gourd that my sister bought for herself, I licked it while looking around from time to time.
Jiang Yu'er was afraid that he would be fascinated by what he was looking at and forget to keep up. directly dragged his little hand into his hand, and wherever he went, he was pulled to death.
Jiang Ziming was very uncomfortable, but he didn't dare to refute anything. It's fine when I'm with my sister, but my brother is here! He looks at him, and you have to be obedient.
For this brother, Jiang Ziming dares to be angry and dare not speak!
The three brothers and sisters went out empty-handed, but when they came back, they pulled a cart full of things. I also found Mr. Writer and wrote couplets. This is a must-have for every family during the Chinese New Year. What firecrackers, couplets, these essential things for the New Year, other people's homes can't be missing, and so are your own.
It's just that when she saw the firecrackers in her car, Jiang Yu'er didn't mention how much she missed the previous fireworks. Although its beauty is very short-lived, it is only this brief moment that can be deeply introduced into your mind, and it cannot be removed or erased.
People say that it is a flash in the pan, only for Vede. Isn't it fireworks?
Back at home, Jiang Yuer followed her brother to sort out the things she bought one by one, and some families in the village wanted to give gifts. For the rest, I'll give you some food. This has always been a custom in Zhangzhuang Village.
The village chief's house is going to be sent, and there is also the second uncle's house. Jiang Yu'er thought about it, in her previous life, when she went to give New Year's gifts to the older generation, she also ate some food. So I prepared 20 catties of pork and 50 catties of rice for the second uncle's family. Li Zheng's family and the village chief's family each have ten catties of pork and ten catties of liquor. This is already a great gift for the people of Zhangzhuang Village.
Other villagers, that is, when they reach the age of thirty, can send some food to their own families. What kind of steamed buns are also fine.
The Jiang family, in the eyes of outsiders, is Jiang Amao who is in charge, so the matter of giving gifts has fallen on Jiang Amao's head. He took his younger brother and sent the New Year's gifts over one by one. When I went to Lizheng's house and the village chief's house, they also said that after the New Year, they would come to their house to discuss something.
Li Zheng in Zhangzhuang Village is a smart person, looking at the Jiang family in just a few months, not only bought a hill, but also built a new house. One night, he saw a carriage entering the village. And it stopped directly at the Jiang family's side.
Looking at the bags of things carried into the carriage, he thought, this should be the foundation of the Jiang family's fortune! Moreover, before, Jiang Yuer promised that she would contribute a certain kind of food in her hand.
He'd have to come over and take a look and get things settled.
Jiang Yu'er listened to what Jiang Amao brought back and smiled. Could she not know what Rizheng meant with the village chief? Didn't you just think, what she said before about eating? It's just that their family's sweet potatoes are only enough to grow their own family this year. It's a joke to want all the villagers in a village to be able to plant it.
She also told them that you can't rush everything. Gotta take it one step at a time.
Since moving into the new house, she has followed her brother to transport the sweet potatoes and Banxia from the old house. I found a damp corner and put it away. These are all things that need to be planted in the spring season.
Every night, she sprinkles the sweet potatoes with some water so that they sprout faster.
When the wheat is harvested, the sweet potatoes can be planted. Banxia is earlier, after the New Year, let my brother set up a plow, and loosen the soil again on the slope of the West Mountain, so that the planted Banxia can absorb nutrients well.
In the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, every household is busy cleaning. Clean your home inside and out to welcome the new year.
Jiang Ziming also got up very early today, and the three brothers and sisters got some breakfast and ate it first, and started the day's work.
Jiang Amao, as the eldest son of the Jiang family, is also the head of their family, and he cooks the meal for the Chinese New Year's Eve. At about dinner, the ancestors are sacrificed. And Jiang Yuer and Jiang Ziming, sisters and brothers, took brooms and sackcloths to clean the house, inside and out. When everything was done, Jiang Yuer found a problem, although they had moved into a new home, there was no decent furniture at home.
