Farmhouse Senda

Chapter 306
Today is the first day of Li Qingyun and Yang Yunu's marriage, and it is also the Stove Sacrifice Festival on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, which is the day when the people send the Stove Lord to heaven.

Every household offered tributes in the kitchen, begging the Stove Lord to speak more good things and not to speak bad things about himself when he went to heaven.

Some are more direct. There are statues or paintings of the Stove Lord in the kitchen, and there are couplets such as "God says good things, return to the palace to bring auspiciousness" and other couplets on the left and right, in order to live a safe and long life and have enough food and clothing.

The things offered as tribute are more casual. They can be served with steamed buns, rice, or stewed meat, but there is one thing that every family will never forget-"Jiezao Candy".

The method of sacrificial stove sugar is very simple. After boiling with maltose, add white sesame seeds, cut into strips or pieces, and let it cool before eating.

The taste is mellow, crisp but not greasy, and when chewed too much, it will be a bit sticky.In some places, when the maltose is boiled, millet flour or corn flour is added to make the stove candy has a special flavor.

According to local legend, the purpose of offering stove candy as a tribute to Lord Stove Lord was to silence him.

When going to heaven on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, don’t talk nonsense with the Jade Emperor, stick your mouth with sacrificial stove candy, and try to talk as little as possible. If you talk, it’s because you ate candy, your mouth is sweet, and you say good things.

Because of the folk saying, if the Stove Lord files a complaint, his life span will be reduced by [-] days at least, and [-] days at worst.How many three hundred days are there in a person's life, so every household attaches great importance to the Stove Festival.

At night, before it was dark, someone started to set off cannons. After the cannons were fired, they knelt at the kitchen door and kowtowed to the statue of the Stove Lord.

After some worship, go to burn incense, meditate some prayers and words of peace in your heart, put the incense behind the incense burner, break up the king offering sugar, and sprinkle some in front of the idol.

Li Qingyun and Yang Yunu were relatively busy. After worshiping the Stove Lord in the old house, they went back to the new villa with their daughter-in-law and performed the ceremony again.

Regardless of whether it is true or not, this habit has been developed since childhood, and it will not be changed for a while.Moreover, since he got the small space, he has been particularly concerned about supernatural things. Regardless of whether there are gods in the world, he will take them seriously and will not utter insults lightly.

Every household is firing cannons, and the sulfur smell pervades the space, creating an atmosphere of Chinese New Year.

Jizao is also called Xiaonian, which is the beginning of the Spring Festival.Of course, in some places, the 24th of the twelfth lunar month is used as the Kitchen Festival.

"Official sacrifices are three, and civilian sacrifices are four." It means that officials have passed 23, and ordinary people have passed 24.

There is no explicit regulation on the specific day or place, so it is a habit handed down. It used to be 23, and it is still 23 this year.

Li Qingyun and his wife ate dinner together with their parents. Since my sister hadn't returned to the city for the festival, I wanted their family to come too.

But my elder sister was not happy, saying that it was not reasonable for a married girl to spend her junior year at her mother's house, she took Qingheju as her home, and did not mention going back to the city at all during the stove sacrifice there.

And the brother-in-law wanted to go back to the city, but he hadn't said anything yet. Seeing Li Qinghe's stern expression, he insisted on not saying the next half of the sentence.

Li Qinghe's resentment was too great, and she put aside the topic long ago, saying that if anyone returns to the city for the New Year this year, they should not come back.

It seems that the bullying by her mother-in-law in the past few years has been enough, and this resistance is also particularly fierce, a bit unreasonable.

But Maomao is very supportive of her mother, because during the New Year in the countryside, there is food and drink, and there are a lot of firecrackers, and she can’t go to the house every day, so she is more free than in the city. She wishes she would never go back to the city.

Li Qingyun doesn't care about this matter, this is his sister's family business, and they are all adults, so they have to bear the consequences by themselves.

The only thing he can stand up for his sister is that if he is bullied by his in-laws, he will definitely point and hit him. This is the duty of a younger brother.

Going back at night, the two went to bed early.

Since Yang Yunu was a woman for the first time, Li Qingyun did not touch her, which relieved Yang Yunu, saying that if you were a beast tonight, he would kick you out of bed, and he must learn the roar of the Hedong lion and stop being a little sheep.

Li Qingyun, who had no such thoughts at first and was about to fall asleep, gave Yang Yunu a hard time again. This time, the Hedong Lion didn't make it, but turned into a good little sheep, huddled in Li Qingyun's arms, fragrant go to sleep.

At dawn, Yang Yunu actually got up earlier than Li Qingyun, and while putting on makeup, he said angrily: "It was almost healed, but after you tossed about it last night, it hurt a little. I won't sleep with you today. I want to sleep with you." Go back to your mother's house."

Li Qingyun was taken aback for a moment, and when he took a closer look, he found that Li Yunu was holding back a smile between his brows and eyes.

After thinking about it, it turns out that today is the second day after the wedding, but counting from the day of the wedding, it is the third day.After returning home three days after marriage, Yang Yunu should have returned to her mother's house, but she said that she was trying to avoid herself.It's okay, just married, that naive little girl has learned to lie, she must be taught a lesson.

The two were arguing wildly in the room, until Chen Xiuzhi called to urge them to go home for dinner, and then the two stopped arguing.

Today is the day when the new daughter-in-law returns home. She has to get up early and prepare some things for the rest of the day, so Chen Xiuzhi doesn't bother to care what time they sleep until.

With disheveled temples and flushed cheeks, Yang Yunu glared at Li Qingyun and complained dissatisfiedly: "I hate it to death, I messed up my hair after so much effort, and you messed it up again. I didn't know you were so crazy before. I knew it earlier." I won't marry you."

"It's too late to regret. Hmph, little lady, come back tonight and let's continue fighting with you for another [-] rounds." Li Qingyun threatened viciously.

Yang Yunu couldn't stand the man's hot eyes, put on his clothes and ran to the bathroom, before closing the door, he even yelled viciously: "You are a big hooligan!"

"Hey..." Li Qingyun smiled and acquiesced to this address. Does he still need to be polite to his wife?

After the two of them washed and dressed neatly, it was already high in the sun.

Back at the old house, Yang Yunu's cell phone rang just after a few mouthfuls of food. It was her younger brother calling, saying that she had arrived at the gate of the villa. Why did she ring the doorbell and no one answered?
According to the local rules, when the bride returns home, her father and brother should come to pick her up.

The father can come to pick it up, and the brother or elder brother can also come to pick it up.Then the bride's husband and father-in-law prepare a bunch of gifts, and together with them, send them to the bride's natal home.

Things have been prepared long ago, two big boxes have been prepared, and the person who carried the boxes has already found them, and they are smoking and chatting at the gate.It's just that I didn't expect Yang Yunu's natal brother to come so early, neither of them had breakfast.

No way, Yang Yunu stopped eating and wanted to go back to the villa to open the door, of course Li Qingyun also left.Together, Li Chengwen and Chen Xiuzhi ordered someone to carry the box and went directly to the intersection to wait.

When Li Qingyun and his wife walked into the farm, his brother-in-law Yang Yulong was squatting at the door smoking a cigarette, so he was alone, wearing a small slim suit, his hair was combed oily, and he didn't know how much hairspray he had applied.

Because he was in the wind, his slightly immature face was flushed from the cold, and the snot flowed to his mouth, and he didn't know it yet.

Yang Yulong was spoiled and spoiled since he was a child, but he has never learned Kungfu for a few days. The father-in-law has a middle-aged son, and he is very fond of him. Both daughters have practiced real Kungfu, but his son has not even learned the basic skills. A set of Yang-style Tai Chi Boxing is also commonplace.

"Sister, you're back. If you don't come back, I'll freeze to death. You don't stay in the villa early in the morning. You go to some old house to eat. Blessings don't know how to enjoy. It's a life of suffering. You and your brother-in-law bought the clothes for me?
My mother said that this suit is too small to fit a thick sweater inside, so I asked you to choose two more for me tomorrow.What kind of expression do you have? I just found out that you started a company and made a lot of money. You are just my younger brother. If you have money, who will you give it to?Brother-in-law, do you think so? "

Well, let him finish all the good and bad words. This kid is still the same as when he was a child.

Now that we are relatives, we can't mess around like we were when we were young. Li Qingyun smiled and said, "Yulong, clothes are a trivial matter, but in winter, you don't wear down jackets, can you keep cold in a suit? Besides, this is a Korean style slim suit , It’s strange to be able to pull on a sweater. There was still time a year ago, and your sister and I will take you to the county seat, and you can buy whatever you like.”

Yang Yunu curled her lips, and said dislikedly: "When did my sister lose your clothes, but how can anyone ask me for clothes at this stage? Are you picking me up today, or are you here to ask for clothes? Come in quickly, the door is open, why are you still freezing outside?"

"Hey, isn't this frightening? The yard is so delicately tidied up. I thought it would be just like others, just paint it with cement. How much will it cost for the yard alone?" Yang Yulong suddenly felt a little confused. Restrained, took the initiative to pinch out the cigarette, and then followed into the house.

After entering the house, the furnishings in the room are the same as those in the mansions in the TV series. Whether it is furniture or lamps, they are very different from the buildings of rural people.

Yang Yunu sat in the corner of the sofa, drank a few sips of hot tea, and then calmed down, and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, I really couldn't see it before, and you will have a day of great wealth. At first, I thought that my sister's A small environmental protection company should not be able to make a lot of money, but now I don’t think so.”

Li Qingyun and Yang Yunu looked at each other and shook their heads secretly. With Yang Yulong's temperament, after knowing that his sister was rich, he might not know how to make it public in school.A private high school is a mixed bag. There are a lot of rich people, and there are also children from poor people. Moreover, Yang Yulong is the kind of child from poor families. Fortunately, he will graduate from high school in half a year and go to college. He should be able to do better. .

After drinking up the cup of tea, they had another conversation, Li Qingyun and Yang Yunu packed up their things and prepared to go back to Chenjiagou.Li Chengwen and a few men from the same school who carried the box had been waiting for them at the intersection, and when they saw them coming, they greeted them and followed them.

When returning home, the bride cannot see the lights of her mother's house, which means that she must return to her husband's house before dark.After returning home this time, there will be no so many rules when you want to go back to your mother's house in the future. This set of wedding rituals can be regarded as a complete end.The new daughter-in-law also became an ordinary woman and officially became the Li family.
