There is an extra leap April in the Year of the Dog, and by the time the Dragon Boat Festival arrives, it will be the end of June.

A few days ago, Zhou Jiao prepared dumpling leaves and various fillings early.

As soon as the youngest son goes abroad in August, the child doesn't know if he can return to China during the Dragon Boat Festival next year. Also, the day of the Dragon Boat Festival is also the birthday of her and her father.

This year is even more special, it is her father's 66th birthday.

As the saying goes, "Sixty-six eats knife meat, seventy-seven eats only *** eighteen eats an old female duck".

In addition to preparing to wrap zongzi, she also prepared a knife of six catties and six taels of meat according to custom.

Last night, hehe......

She began to carefully wrap 68 small dumplings, and after one respectful to heaven and one respectful to the earth, the remaining 66 small dumplings.

In order for her father to live a long life, Zhou Jiao woke her up at one o'clock in the morning, and she had to let Zhou Xiaozheng bite one by one.

If she could, of course she would like her to eat them all. But it's really not good, no matter how the 66 small dumplings are wrapped, the pocket-sized type really makes her eat them in one go, and she has to eat them!

The reason why she is so particular is because in this year, there is still a saying among the people about "crossing the hurdle".

People believe that the age of 66 is a difficult time in the journey of life.

To say from old Beijing, only by eating six catties and six taels of meat from her daughter's filial piety can you successfully pass this pass, so Zhou Jiao doesn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, it's always right to do it first.

It is said that in this year, he will also wear the red sash given by his daughter, and on his birthday, he will write a prayer for blessings and longevity to the ten halls of Yan Jun, who is in charge of the longevity of the world.

It also had to be folded with yellow paper and incinerated together when sending the lanterns. When the lanterns are delivered, some cash is thrown on the street and left for others to pick up, and it is said that whoever picks it up will save the disaster for himself.

So as soon as the night of the fourth day of the Lunar New Year passed, in the early morning, on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, in the early morning of June 25, Zhou Jiao packed up and went to action.

The big red underwear and underwear are ready, and a red belt is sewn into the waistband of the military pants, well, the expression to the Ten Palaces of the Heavenly Majesty of the World is also ready.

"I'll go with you!"

"No, I'll drive over quickly, just send the text and lights to the city and find a safe place to burn them. I'm going to throw away the cash as I open it. ”

"It's non-negotiable."

How dare Zhang Guoqing rest assured?

Doesn't it mean that whoever picks up the cash will eliminate the disaster for himself? With his daughter-in-law's temperament, it is estimated that she will not be willing to throw a few more handfuls of cash on a few streets.

In case his stupid daughter-in-law meets those second-rate people like night owls, it is estimated that she will be lucky to rob the money, and the robbery will be terrible.

Zhou Jiao didn't dare to protest with him, the movement was too big, and the three wild boys of her family were alarmed, and they estimated that they would change it to the whole family to be angry, how stupid~

In addition to the sanitation workers who were about to clean up in the early morning of the end of June, there were really a few night owls on the street......

Zhou Jiao pinched her fingers, used what she had learned from the four pillars of prediction, blindly commanded, and finally stopped at a three-way intersection.

According to her, according to her father's birthday, as well as today's various ebb and flow, it has to be matched with different times and different directions.

The level of complexity is comparable to that of a large array!

asked Zhang Guoqing to say that his daughter-in-law pinched her fingers, put on a small face, and made a serious appearance, and she also had a bit of a "crazy posture" of a magic stick.

Amused him along the way, holding back laughter and suffocating his stomach hurt.

Zhou Jiao was muttering something while burning a pile of paper money, which made Zhang Guoqing nervous. I saw a pair of his eyes looking around like radar.

Oh mom, he's really worried about meeting those enthusiastic old ladies in the neighborhood committee. The power of these women's armies is so fierce that he has to be terrified!

As soon as it was over, the guy immediately picked up his daughter-in-law and ran to the car......

"Hey, wait, I haven't thrown the money yet."

Zhang Guoqing immediately stopped: This is to be given, wait a minute, the hardships of the sanitation workers must not be less. "Throw more, press a little with a small stone."

Without waiting for his words to fall, Zhou Jiao turned into a "robot cat", and kept digging out of her pocket, taking out a handful of one, two, and five cents coins.

Zhang Guoqing, who was protecting her on the side, looked at his daughter-in-law, and the corners of his mouth twitched: Can you still play like this? When did you change so many coins?

"Let's go, let's go." Zhou Jiao went around, estimated that she had thrown it away, and hurriedly pulled him into the car, "I'm smart, right?" Where is it better to toss a coin with a stone. ”

"Daughter-in-law, when did you change so many coins?"

"That's more, huh? I asked my uncle for a full 666 yuan, but unfortunately my uncle was afraid that I would not be able to carry it, so he only exchanged half of the coins for me. I'm going to throw the remaining half of the banknotes and sit in the car to find the right direction of the wind when I sit in the car. Otherwise, it will be inconvenient to blow against the wind. ”

Hearing her say this, Zhang Guoqing immediately realized that he had to hurry up and scatter money next, and when it was dawn, he would be regarded as a psychopath.

"Is there a street you'd like to visit?"

Zhou Jiao took out a piece of paper and handed it to him, "Here!" I've got the lines drawn. Go around the city gates in the southeast, northwest and northwest, and go around the alleys on the way to slow down, and finally all the extra ones are placed in the old people's home. ”

Zhang Guoqing looked at the simple map marked on the paper, and when he heard her say this, he nodded with a smile. This hand-drawn skill is really enough to overkill.

"Originally, I wanted to prepare more steamed buns to send to the nursing home, but my aunt said that it was appropriate to throw money, and there would be kind-hearted people to send zongzi to the Dragon Boat Festival today."

"Okay, let's sprinkle more as soon as possible, and we'll slip away when we're done."

When the couple returned home after finishing the business at hand, the sky was already struggling to reveal a hint of fish belly white, hazy, and the night had passed.

As soon as I entered the yard, the lights were transparent, and the kitchen was filled with laughter, only to see her mother Miao Lishan and the three brothers of Ping'an, as well as Aunt Chen, five people crowded there and busy.

"Grandma, you go and accompany my grandfather, just give it to us here."

"Okay, I'm not going to interfere, I'll take a look."

"Grandma, today is also your Good Friday, go and rest for a while."

Zhou Jiao covered her mouth and laughed when she heard this: Her mother was really disgusted again! After so many years, why haven't you practiced some cooking skills?

Miao Lishan's eyes lit up when she heard this, she immediately turned her head to look at Zhou Jiao, and smiled happily: "Little birthday star, you're back, it'll be fine soon." ”

Zhou Jiao glanced at her with disgust, "Why are you so troublesome, my dad?" ”

Miao Lishan squeezed her eyes, and with the voice that everyone in the kitchen could hear, she made a mysterious complaint, "I should hide in the study again to prepare a gift for you." ”

"Hahaha...... Happy birthday, Mom. ”

"Mom, I wish you a lot of smiles."

"Mom, I wish you eternal youth."

"Thank you, sons." Zhou Jiao said and walked towards Miao Lishan and took her arm, "Mom, thank you, thank you for all your hard work to give birth to me." ”
