Chapter 313: Chinese New Year

Da Lang caught a cold. He was celebrating the New Year. She didn't want him to take medicine during the first month of the year, so Mrs. Qian asked him to rest in the room and asked Shangguan Ruoli to give him strong medicine.

Shangguan Ruoli knew what he was doing, so he mixed in more spiritual spring water when making the medicine, and it would be almost healed in three days.

Dalang's incident taught the children another vivid lesson. It is your kindness to save people, but after you save them, the person wants to rely on you, and you must have the wisdom and courage to refuse.

This time, Dalang handled it very well and relieved his anger.

On New Year's Eve, the whole family is healthy and in good spirits, with joy on their faces.

Everyone has been busy since early in the morning. Ling Yue and San Ya took a few maids to put peach branches on every door of the house, and muttered auspicious words.

Dalang and his brothers pasted up the red couplets written by Dongming Ziyu and hung up red lanterns. The yard immediately became festive.

Old Man Dong took his sons to a big crossroad outside, set off firecrackers and burned paper, and invited the ancestral immortals back and enshrined them in the hall. The memorial tablets of the Jade Emperor, the Earth God, and the Kitchen God were also invited out and burned with incense.

.

Mrs. Qian and her daughters-in-law steamed the tributes over the hot air and put them on the offering table. When everything was ready, the whole family lit incense and kowtowed.

Then, the women started to prepare lunch for the group members. Stir-fried, fried, chicken, duck and fish, the aroma filled the whole yard.

The boys were playing happily in the yard and setting off firecrackers in different ways.

The girls helped carry the plates and pick vegetables, joking with each other, and bursting into the sky with joyful laughter.

At noon, the family and the children from the village sat at five tables, and everyone had a smile on their face.

When Mrs. Qian saw that everyone was here, she said to Old Man Dong: "Old man, please say a few words."

Old man Dong didn't know how to speak politely. He stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Our life is getting better and better, but this is just the beginning. We will be better in the future. We have only been in the capital for half a year, and you already know that we are going to do better."

It’s not easy to have a lot of fun.

You have to be more careful in your life from now on. Don't raise your tail and cause trouble for your family by not knowing your last name. But we don't bully others and don't cause trouble. If people plot against us, we can't pretend to be grandsons.

Boys, please study hard, practice martial arts, learn skills, and strive to be promising in the future, so that our Dongzhou Village can truly prosper."

Everyone said: "I know!"

On this occasion, Mrs. Qian still gave Old Man Dong face, and said with a smile: "I won't say anything anymore, I will listen to Old Man."

Looking at Dongming Ziyu, "Si'er, please say a few words."

Dongming Ziyu smiled and said, "Dad has said everything I want to say. I don't have anything to add. I'll let my eldest brother say a few words."

Higashikata smiled and said, "I listen to my parents."

Dong Youliang also said: "Me too."

Old Man Dong picked up his chopsticks and said, "Eat!"

He took down his chopsticks first, then Mrs. Qian, then the Dong Youliang brothers, and finally the younger ones took out their chopsticks.

Needless to say, now my family is becoming more and more polite no matter how they eat or behave.

The whole family reunited and had the reunion dinner happily, but the absence of Dong Youyin and Erya made Mrs. Qian, Old Man Dong, Erfang, his family and Shiro feel a little disappointed.

When Mrs. Liu saw that no one mentioned Erya, she turned her eyes and said, "Mom, Erya will go out in March. After the Chinese New Year, shouldn't Sanlang's father and I go back to Liulin County?"

Mrs. Qian said: "I have thought about it. Your father and I will also go back."

Dong Youliang was a little surprised and said: "Father, mother, it's so cold and you have to travel a long distance, can your body bear it? I'm just a girl going out, don't bother you two."

Mrs. Qian waved her hands, looking a little gloomy, and said, "I just want to go back and take a look."

"It was so hard when we were escaping from famine. Now we have a carriage, and we have good food and drink. Why do we have to suffer?" Old Man Dong knew that the old woman was worried about the third child. Except for his parents, who could control him, no one else could.

No.

No one stopped, thinking that they would make a decision after seeing the physical condition of the two elders.

Dong Youyin should let the two elders work hard, otherwise it will really cause a big disaster, not to mention Dongming Ziyu's future, and his parents can't bear it.

For the palace banquet on New Year's Eve, Dongming Ziyu's official position is relatively low, and Mrs. Qian and Shangguan Ruoli's official titles are also low, so they are not qualified to attend. For the imperial meeting on New Year's Day, Dongming Ziyu has to attend.
