Li Yunlan waited for them to leave, took out the money and checked it, and then entered the back room with a blank look.

He took out more than one or two pieces of broken silver slot and handed it to Chen.

Chen blinked and looked at her mother-in-law suspiciously.

Li Yunlan put it into her arms: "Take it, this is for you, this time you almost died because of them, this money will be given to you, and the rest will be reserved for tomorrow's banquet." ”

"Mother, I don't want it, you are in charge, you can keep it yourself."

"What a rambling thing!"

Li Yunlan left the house after giving it, and asked Qiu Defu to discuss the matter of washing the three banquets.

Chen was holding the silver in his hand, with mixed emotions.

Li Yunlan pulled the Liu family and Qiu Defu to discuss, and finally decided to use the money to hire a private kitchen, a table of two, two or five.

She gave Qiu Defu money and asked him to go to a relative's house to report the good news.

Liu rolled up his sleeves and began to clean, while Li Yunlan played with her four children.

Early the next morning, Chen's mother, You Shi, took her eldest daughter-in-law Liang and youngest grandson Chen Xuan'er to the door.

I went to the hall to see Li Yunlan first, and after a little politeness, I entered the second room.

"My son, this time I'm standing still and gagging your mother-in-law." You Shi touched his daughter's hand and said.

Li Yunlan, who was about to enter the house, heard her eyelids tremble, is this her mother? didn't ask about her daughter's body, she was patriarchal, and then turned to the kitchen.

"Eldest daughter-in-law, go and vacate the things that Chen's wife brought."

Liu agreed, took the basket and went to the hall, uncovering ten eggs and five brown rice poops in the cloth...... Nope.

Liu: "Hehe...... Last time, when she gave birth to Baoyu, she took three eggs and two poops, and this old lady really didn't make a face for her daughter. ”

As soon as he finished vacating his things, Qiu Ruyi arrived with his uncle Wang Sheng, and Qiu Degui stepped forward to greet them and welcomed them into the hall.

"Ruyi is back, my uncle is here." Liu stepped forward to greet him.

"Sister-in-law, where is my mother? Who brought this gift? ”

Liu Shi pointed to the second room, and then said, "Mother is watching in the kitchen, I'll call her." ”

Qiu Ruyi pursed his lips and muttered in a low voice: "It's really a slam on the door." ”

Li Yunlan heard Liu's daughter Qiu Ruyi come back and waited for her in the hall, and she was irritable, the original owner loved this little daughter the most, but she was not familiar with her, what should I do.

In the end, I had to bite the bullet.

When I entered the hall, I saw a thin and smiling girl wearing a crimson skirt with her hair combed and two pink blue silk flowers obliquely inserted into her sideburns.

"Congratulations to my mother-in-law."

Li Yunlan sat down and saw a handsome young man come forward and salute, this should be the little son-in-law.

Li Yunlan said to Qiu Degui: "You accompany your son-in-law to talk, and Ruyi and I will go into the house and say a few thoughtful words." ”

took Qiu Ruyi into the house, and Li Yunlan was still looking for something to talk about when she heard Qiu Ruyi ask, "What's the matter?" Isn't the second sister-in-law not in her day? How to give birth early. ”

Well, you don't have to find a topic on your own.

Li Yunlan told the cause and effect of the incident, Qiu Ruyi's face flushed: "Da Niu, this kid is too ruthless, it's all brought by the bad seeds of her old Qian family, the second brother is used to being a good person, if I call the door." ”

"Okay, everything has been dealt with, and you can't break off the relationship, maybe your aunt will be angry at home? You take your things to see your second sister-in-law, to see your little nephew. ”

Qiu Ruyi pursed her lips and said, "Her mother is really picky." After saying that, he picked up his things and went to the second room.

In the second room, You Shi was also angry for her daughter: "Your mother-in-law is a person who doesn't let people, and she can't suffer this loss for herself." ”

Liang also echoed: "Your mother-in-law is really scared every time I see her, my sister is really bitter for you." ”

Chen originally thought that her mother-in-law was willing to stand up for herself, which was quite good, but when the old lady and sister-in-law said this, it turned out that it was not for herself.

"Second sister-in-law, I'm coming to see my little nephew."

The voice of the sister-in-law came from outside the house, and Chen gave the old lady and sister-in-law a look, and the two stopped squeaking.

Waiting for Qiu Ruyi to come in, You Shi gave up his seat: "Her aunt sit down." ”

Qiu Ruyi thanked with a smile on her face.

"How is the second sister-in-law's health now, is her appetite okay?" Qiu Ruyi asked.

Chen: "Thanks to my mother for hiring a doctor, if I don't let me, I will die twice." His eyes were red as he spoke.

Qiu Ruyi sighed: "That bastard boy's heart is too dark, I broke out in a cold sweat on my back when I heard my mother's words, it really hurt you." ”

You Shi also choked up and said: "No, fortunately, there is no danger, I just hope that everything will be smooth in the future." ”

Qiu Ruyi comforted: "Grandma Baoyu is right, the second sister-in-law and nephew will definitely be obedient in the future." ”

"Second sister-in-law, this is a muslin cloth, making some clothes for my nephew is the most soft and breathable, this is a dress I made for my nephew, and I also wrapped pastries for Baoyu."

Chen smiled and said, "I'm glad you came back to see me, and you have to spend money to buy these things." ”

The sister-in-law was also pretending to be polite, and Qiu Ruyi hugged the little nephew, thinking that it was not a full-term birth, which was far worse than when Chengcai was born.

Relatives came to the door one after another, Li Yunlan and her two sons were greeting guests, and after the first wave of words, the female relatives moved to the second room, and the male guests continued to be greeted by Qiu Degui in the living room.

The fat Qian family also arrived, it's really a good thing not to go out, bad things are spread thousands of miles, Boss Qiu doesn't feel anything in the hall with his children and grandchildren, and the fat Qian family with the little Qian family is a little unable to sit still in the second house.

But soon the table started, a table of eight dishes, three meat, four vegetables and one soup.

In the countryside, where you can't eat meat a few times a year, this table is quite decent.

The chopsticks on the table flew up and down, and there seemed to be a sword and sword shadow in the eye waves.

Li Yunlan was dumbfounded, the bowl was swept away, if it weren't for the large number of people, it was estimated that the bowl would have to be licked again.

After eating, Mrs. Chen began to prepare for the washing ceremony.

In the two-room outhouse, 13 gods such as Bixia Yuanjun, Giving Birth Niangniang, Acne Niangniang, and Eye Niangniang were offered.

At the head of Chen's bed, the statue of "bed male and mother" is offered, two kinds of cakes are offered, and after kowtowing to incense, the child is bathed with water boiled with acacia branches and mugwort.

The farmers don't have anything to add to the pot, and they basically put one copper coin per person, which makes Li Yunlan very uneasy, feeling that the newborn is so fragile, how dirty this copper coin is.

Mrs. Chen stripped the child naked and held it in her arms, held her head and put the child's buttocks in the water, and the child began to cry as soon as she entered the water, and relatives and friends laughed and said yes.

Then I listened to Mrs. Chen reciting the greeting while washing: "Wash your hair first and be a prince; After washing the waist, one generation is taller than the other; Wash eggs and wash the county as a county; Wash the ditch as Zhizhou. Then, comb the child's fetal hair, and then read: "Three combs, two grates, grow up and wear a red hat; Finally, gently roll the red egg on the child's face and read: "Roll the egg on the face, there is no danger in life." “

After washing, wrap it in a quilt, pat it three times on the child's body with a green onion, be smart and clever, and compare it with the scale and the lock three times: "Although the scale is small and weighs a thousand pounds", when you grow up, "your head is tight, your feet are tight, and your hands are tight".

Then he took the green onion to Qiu Defu, who stood in the courtyard with his back to the door of the second room and threw it back.

In the end, Mrs. Chen incinerated the tablets of the gods, and the washing ceremony ended.

The cook began to follow, the relatives began to serve the noodles, and finally when they left, one person gave two red eggs as a souvenir.
