Chapter 522 Bai Fang'er returns to her mother's house
It is time to stay up to New Year's Eve on New Year's Eve, and everyone can't eat the meat in the afternoon. Li Po doesn't urge you. After all, you can't finish the New Year's Eve meal. There must be leftovers until next year, and there will be more every year.
The boys were playing firecrackers, the girls were turning on flower ropes, and the women sat in front of the fire and talked. The men talked about their plans for the next year. When the time was almost here, Xiao Li's sister-in-law brought a big pot of dumplings and said that they could get off until next year after eating.
Before the dumplings were finished, firecrackers sounded in the village. Bai Nanxing put down his bowl and took a fragrant piece and walked towards the door, "The firecrackers are set off."
Soon, the crackling sound of firecrackers rang out one after another in the village, and then the sound of firecrackers in Liujiawan also rang out in the night sky. The barks of the leaves said, "The sound of firecrackers bid farewell to the old year, and the new year is coming."
"Go away, set off firecrackers."
In the midnight of New Year's Eve, ordinary families put a cart on one, happily put two or three carts on it. The hundreds of families prepared twelve carts, and they wanted to blow the New Year beast to pieces according to their posture.
Bai Yegen threw a bamboo tube into the fire. Bai Fu'er, who was eating dumplings beside him, had no idea. The bamboo tube exploded with a "bang", which scared her hard. She put down the bowl and chased Bai Yegen. Her nephews and nieces were also intrigued. They all joined the battlefield one by one, and laughter was spreading far away.
This is the most lively night of the year. The next morning, the children in the village just got up. They set off so many firecrackers last night. They had to get up early to pick up the squib and shake out the gunpowder inside to play.
The important thing is to pay New Year’s greetings and wait to get New Year’s money.
People from Baijia also got up early. Today, the first day of the first year, can get up hard for a year. Everyone lined up to greet Bailihui and Li Po in turn. The two old men happily sent red seals to everyone, not leaving behind any one from top to bottom to the next.
Looking at the large group of children and grandchildren, they were so surprised that they could not see each other.
"This red seal is hung on the door and waiting for the Dragon Dance Team to come."
A few years ago, there were dragon dance teams in the county town. From the first day of the Lunar New Year, these dragon dance teams would go from village to village. As long as they saw a red seal at the door, they would dance lively to seek auspiciousness and joy.
Those who are short of money will hide when the dragon dance team arrives, and they will leave when they see no one.
Everyone went to play, and Bailihui also went to talk to Bailichang. The two brothers had to sigh at this time every year. They didn’t even have a family tree and didn’t know where the roots were. Unlike the people of the Zhang family, they would open ancestral halls to worship their ancestors in a huge manner.
That's a lot of people, most of the villages are from the Zhang family.
"Brother, let's make a family tree. In the future, grandpa will be our ancestors. We will also open a ancestral hall to worship our ancestors during the Chinese New Year."
"Build a grand ancestral hall and invite the tablets of grandpa and father in."
Baili Hui was very hesitant. There were only two or three tablets in the grand ancestral hall?
Too thin.
"Let's talk about it in two years."
In the afternoon, the sound of drums and gongs rang at Liujiawan and the dragon dance team was coming.
Liujiawan and Wenchang Village are rich and noble, and the dragon dance team always walks here first, first to Liujiawan, and then follow the village road to Wenchang Village, attracting many people to watch the fun.
Evergreen's fun was the most important thing. He took out all the firecrackers at home and picked them up for a long string. When the dragon dance team was about to end, the sound of firecrackers rang out. According to the rules, the dragon dance team kept dancing, and they could only dance hard again.
The sound of drums and gongs and firecrackers were heard in unison, and the colorful dragons were hovering back and forth in the smoke of firecrackers, and the surroundings were cheering. Finally, a rich red dragon dance team felt that it was worth it to be tired.
I passed by the first day of the New Year. When I returned to my parents' home on the second day of the New Year, I had mule carts lined up at the gate early in the morning, and they got on the car with gifts one by one. Bai Fu'er was also taken away by her mother, and only the old lady Li and a few servants were left at home.
Bai Fang'er came early, and the family greeted the two elders when they entered the door. They were also happy to see their daughter Li Po. They spoke intimately. After talking for a while, Bai Fang'er asked, "All the people in the family have left? Fu'er has also gone to her uncle's house?"
The smile on Li Po's face decreased by a little, "I'm leaving, I'm going to wish her uncle a happy new year."
Bai Fang'er felt a little regretful, "I haven't seen Fu'er for a long time, so is that girl. She doesn't come to my place to sit when she arrives in the county town. She can live and like my aunt when she was a child."
Li Po smiled and said, "Nan Xing and the others bought a house in the county town, so she naturally went there to settle down. It is always inconvenient for her to come with a family in your place."
Bai Fang'er didn't think anything was wrong. Wu Qiang, who was sitting beside him, was a little embarrassed. From the incident at the house, he could actually clearly feel the alienation of his uncles from him, and this matter has always been in his heart.
Bai Fang'er talked about Bai Fu'er's marriage with a smile, "The young general of the Wei family is really good, has a good family background, and has a future. It is Fu'er's blessing."
"Mom, I talked to my father last time and sent Cuicui to the capital for Fu'er to watch. The capital is prosperous, maybe Cuicui can also say good marriage in the future."
Li Po smiled and agreed with her words, "Fu'er looked at you, and then asked the gentleman from the capital to educate her and become a lady from a noble family. From now on, Cuicui will be the girl from the general's family. If you look for a good marriage, it is best to have an official position or a high-ranking official. The Wu family will also rise with the flow of water. It is best to take over the eldest son of the Wu family's eldest brother."
"What does the old saying mean? A man is enlightened and a chicken and a dog are ascending to heaven."
The smile on Bai Fang'er's face froze, and Wu Qiang's heart was beating. This was what his mother said. He didn't think anything was wrong at the time. Now he was trembling when he said it from his mother-in-law.
Li Po's eyes swept over the two of them and finally fell on Wu Qiang. Just when Wu Qiang thought she was going to say something, he saw her stand up, "Fang'er, come with your mother."
Bai Fang'er followed carefully and looked back at Wu Qiang uneasyly. After a while, Wu Qiang seemed to hear the sound of the slap on the table. Bai Li Hui said happily, "Don't pay attention to them and let them talk."
"Qianzi, please sit down, let's talk."
Wu Qiang was nervous and sat aside carefully. Bailihui poured him tea, "Qianzi, I heard that your father's house has been renovated?"
"It's already done." Wu Qiang instantly understood what he meant, and before he could speak Baili Hui, he said, "Your parents are a blessing, and you brothers are both filial."
"I remember when you were trying to split the family, I realized that you were responsible. It would be a hundred people to marry your daughter to you."
"Now, I see your family happy again, and I feel that you are affectionate, righteous and filial, and that is a good thing."
