As for the others.

In the early hours of the morning, she received messages from Shanshan and Weiwei one after another, and Yingzi also persistently sent a few videos to her, saying that she wanted a video to tell her a happy New Year, and Jiang Xiao and Jiang Zhan and others also sent messages to each other to say Happy New Year.

Young people only wait for the morning to start the New Year's revelry, and then sleep until eight or nine o'clock before waking up.

It's just that the Xu family has always retained the habit of celebrating the New Year in the past.

After eating breakfast, Xu Fuqiang went to the temple with incense, candles, and paper money.

When you get up at the beginning of the year, you should worship God first, and after breakfast, you should be the first to go to the temple to worship God, which is the tradition of the Xu family for so many years.

Wang Yanmei said that she would not go, but she would guard the house at home to prevent people from coming to pay respects early and no one at home would be bad.

Xu Fuqiang took a few children to the temple.

The temple is really far away, walking all the way, the stairs to the temple are specially for the elderly, the floor by layer is very low, Xu Zijun can step four floors in one step.

The Xu family didn't come early, and a lot of incense candles were lit in the places where incense was inserted on both sides of the temple gate.

The temple is the Magong Temple, the whole village raised funds to build, the main seat is dedicated to the Lord Magong, the Lord is the meaning of God.

I don't know if the gods of each place have their own stories, and Master Ma Gong is the god that everyone believes in in this area.

Xu Qingzhi often listened to the stories of Master Ma when he was a child, in addition to those omnipotent rumors, he can also help people realize their wishes.

Ah Gong taught her, when she worships the master, if she wants anything, she silently recites it in her heart.

If you want to know whether Master Ma agrees, he holds the cup, which is two pieces of wood with a half-crescent, and falls on the ground on the palm.

Xiao Qingzhi is naughty, always deliberately tricks and does not fall well, begging Master Ma to let him have a lot of snacks to eat, deliberately throwing the result of the Holy Grail, and then telling his father that Master Ma agreed that she can eat a lot of snacks.

Ah Gong always took her hand at this time and said a few words next to him: "Children are playing, don't blame Master Ma, Lord Ma bless." ”

In the side hall stands a three-meter-tall statue of a god with an axe in his hand and angry eyes.

Xiao Qingzhi has been the one who has been most afraid of them since he was a child, and every time he bows in a hurry, he is afraid of even looking up and taking a second look.

After worshipping God with piety, Xu Fuqiang went to ring the bell.

The old man who guarded the temple said Happy New Year, and then went down the mountain according to the route, first went to the sister-in-law's house to pay New Year's greetings, then went to the second uncle's house, the eldest uncle's house, and finally the grandfather's house.

Sometimes when I meet a neighbor who is more familiar, I also have to go to the door to pay a New Year's greeting.

Today's lunch was at Ah Gong's house.

As soon as he entered the door, the juniors said auspicious words, and Ah Gong handed over a red envelope.

Ah Gong is old, although he is eating here, but the chef is still her mother, Xu Fuqiang kept them here to roast the fire, went back to pick vegetables, and drove to pick up the dishes at home and her mother.

Although it is an old house, it has been cleaned by Ah Gong, and even the windows have been wiped bright.

There is an old-fashioned charcoal stove under his feet, and the charcoal is bought in advance, and the charcoal is made from the husks of camellia seeds.

Sometimes when you come across something that doesn't burn completely, the smoke bubbles out.

Ah Gong took the tongs and pressed the smoking coals into the ashes, so that there would be no smoke.

"A while ago, someone gave oranges, saying that they were a new variety of oranges, and they were roasted and eaten on the fire, they were delicious, do you eat them?"

The old man took out a bag of oranges from the house.

Xu Zijun said: "Eat." ”

He doesn't really like to eat roasted oranges, he simply likes to roast oranges in the fire, to put it bluntly, he likes to play with fire.

Xu Qingzhi saw that the orange was quite big and pale yellow, so he said, "Just put two, Feng Yan and I will eat one." ”

Three oranges, these two stoves can't be baked.

Xu Zijun took two oranges, put one in a pile of charcoal, and then buried it with tongs.

The oranges should be roasted for a longer time, so that the flesh of the oranges is warm and not icy mouth.

Not long after, my sister-in-law's family came to pay New Year's greetings.

Ah Gong went to set off firecrackers, and Xu Qingzhi helped pour hot tea and entertain people to sit down.

So it went from a few people around a stove to two piles of people in a circle around two stoves.

The old man said, "Thinking that there are many people this year, I have specially prepared an extra stove." ”

Zhou Le smiled: "Grandpa, even two stoves are not enough, there are so many people." ”

The implication is that the people are prosperous, but the old man is quite happy.

Then the uncle's family also came to pay New Year's greetings, and they set off firecrackers to pour tea, and there were more people in the house.

There are ten people in the sister-in-law's family and the in-laws' family, and the two children of the uncle's family are also married and have already had dolls.

As soon as the seven- and eight-year-old dolls entered the door, they opened their mouths to call people, and then shouted: "Wishing you prosperity, bring the red envelope." ”

The eldest aunt laughed and scolded: "Oh, who taught you a few babies to shout like this." ”

Xu Qing knew a few words about his aunt, took out a few red envelopes from his pocket and handed them over.

The immature children's voice shouted repeatedly: "Thank you, auntie." ”

Xu Qingzhi reached out and touched their little heads.

Although she has always been weak to family affection, there is no reason not to like it when she meets a cute and sensible doll.

Then, a little niece shyly drilled into her mother's arms and whispered, "Mom, who is that uncle?" ”

The woman smiled, "You should be called uncle." ”

The little niece looked at it, and shyly buried her face in her mother's arms, embarrassed to shout.

Xu Qingzhi squatted beside her, teased her with a red envelope, and called Huo Fengyan: Old lady.

are hundreds of years old, what is the name of uncle, the old lady is right.

Then Xu Qingzhi was reprimanded by Ms. Wang, who had just entered the door, "On the first day of the Lunar New Year, what nonsense are you talking about, and this generation has surpassed your grandfather." ”

Ms. Wang teased the child: "Come, Tiantian, the red envelope that the little grandma gave you, let the little grandma hug it." ”

The girl opened her hand and let it be hugged.

Wang Yanmei was so happy that she stuffed the red envelope into the child's hand.

The person next to him began to say: "Yanmei likes the baby so much, let Qingzhi give birth quickly." ”

"Yes, when will Qingzhi and Xiaohuo do wine, although we are working outside, we will definitely come back to do the wedding wine."

"Xiao Huo is really handsome and white, and the baby born at that time will definitely be white."

"You should be able to drink the wedding wine this year, right?"

If it was usual, Wang Yanmei would definitely be in the camp of urging, but so many relatives were talking about it, so they maintained the face of their children and said things against their will: "Now young people get married late, no matter what they want, they can get married when they want." It is better to have an early baby than an early baby, and it is better to have a late baby than a late baby. ”

Someone chimed in: "Yes, yes." ”

Only Xu Zijun was concentrating on roasting oranges, pulling out the oranges that had been buried in them before, and clamping them next to him with tongs.

The little sister-in-law Zhou Liang immediately said: "Oh, I also roasted oranges, wow, these oranges are delicious." ”

Adults are not afraid of hot hands, and the peel of this roasted orange is also very easy to peel, soft, and it will be peeled off in one piece. (End of chapter)
