Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 1351 Is it a family (fifth watch)

In the yard of her natal family next door, Yang Huazhong was sweeping the yard when Yang Ruoqing brought the Spring Festival couplets.

Da'an was helping to tidy up the tables and chairs in the main room, while Mrs. Sun was busy preparing dishes for the New Year's Eve dinner in the backyard.

Seeing Yang Ruoqing coming in with Spring Festival couplets, Yang Huazhong was very happy, and hurriedly put down the broom in his hand and came over to take the Spring Festival couplets.

"Qing'er, are you sure you won't come over for the New Year's Eve dinner tonight?" Yang Huazhong asked again.

Mrs. Sun asked this question several times in the past few days.

Yang Ruoqing smiled and shook her head: "This year is the first year that Tang Yazi and I got married, so I plan to cook the New Year's Eve dinner myself."

"And for the New Year's Eve dinner tonight, I will invite Uncle Luo and the others to eat together."

Yang Huazhong nodded again and again: "Well, it is true that Uncle Tang Yazi and Aunt should be brought over to celebrate the New Year together, as a family!"

Yang Ruoqing continued: "I discussed it with my mother yesterday, the New Year's Eve dinner at my side will be a little earlier than here."

"After I've eaten over there, I'll come over with Tang Yazi to say New Year's greetings to dad and you."

"Sit down and eat a few bites together at that time, which is equivalent to celebrating the New Year with parents and brothers!" she said.

Yang Huazhong was very happy when he heard this, "Okay, okay, this arrangement is the best!"

"Father, since I'm here, let's post the Spring Festival couplets together." Yang Ruoqing suggested.

Yang Huazhong said 'OK'.

"Then I'll go to the backyard and get some rice flour from my mother."

Backyard, kitchen.

Mrs. Sun is very busy.

Cut all kinds of vegetables, prepare all kinds of ingredients, wash what should be washed, soak what should be soaked, simmer what should be simmered, and what should be steamed...

Seeing Yang Ruoqing coming in, Mrs. Sun was very happy.

"Qing'er, how are your dishes prepared?" she asked.

Yang Ruoqing smiled, and reported the menu of the New Year's Eve dinner to Mrs. Sun.

Sun said: "Ah, there are so many fancy vegetables. It's really rich. My daughter will come."

Yang Ruoqing pursed her lips and smiled, made some rice noodles to make rice paste, and took them to the front yard.

Yang Huazhong is tall and burly, so he doesn't need to step on a ladder to put up Spring Festival couplets.

Yang Ruoqing stood by the side holding a basin filled with rice paste, and Da'an was on the side responsible for handing out Spring Festival couplets.

The father and son cooperated together and quickly pasted the Spring Festival couplets.

As soon as the bright red color was pasted on the wall, the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year came out immediately.

When Yang Ruoqing returned to her home with the rice paste and was about to paste the Spring Festival couplets, she found that Luo Fengtang was already pasting the last one at the door of the study.

"Ah, why did you post the Spring Festival couplets alone? Didn't you agree to post them together?"

Yang Ruoqing said.

Luo Fengtang smiled and said: "I've posted it, so you don't have to bother."

"whee……"

Yang Ruoqing smiled, walked over, and helped him smooth the corner of the last Spring Festival couplet.

In previous years, the Spring Festival couplets were pasted in the afternoon, but this year the Spring Festival couplets were posted early.

Next, go to the mountain to burn incense.

The custom in this area is to burn incense and kowtow to the ancestral graves on the mountain in the morning on the day of the Chinese New Year.

After returning to the village in the afternoon, you have to go to the Earth Temple at the south end of the village to burn incense.

Before the New Year's Eve dinner, every household has to burn incense to the ancestral tablets enshrined at home.

Keep watch at night, and get up in the early morning to 'open the door'.

Then before dawn, you have to go to the earth temple to burn incense and set off firecrackers, which is called "going out of heaven".

The young couple finished the Spring Festival couplets, and then Yang Ruoqing went to the kitchen and brought a bamboo basket, which contained offerings for burning incense.

"Let's go, let's go to the village to find uncle, who is probably already waiting for us."

Yang Ruoqing said.

"Are you going too?" Luo Fengtang asked.

Yang Ruoqing rolled her eyes at him: "This is no nonsense, I am the new daughter-in-law of your old Luo family, I must go to burn incense this first year!"

Luo Fengtang was very happy, he reached out to take the basket in her hand, took her hand with the other hand, the two explained to Tuobaxian and Yan Huaianna, and went out of the house to the village together.

The old Luo family.

Aunt Wang Cuilian also prepared offerings, and Blacksmith Luo was changing shoes.

Seeing the young couple coming together hand in hand, Blacksmith Luo was secretly happy.

"Uncle, Qing'er is also going up the mountain with us to burn incense." Luo Fengtang said as soon as he entered the door.

Blacksmith Luo said: "Okay, okay, let the ancestors see the new daughter-in-law of our old Luo family, and let them be happy too."

Yang Ruoqing smiled embarrassedly.

Blacksmith Luo looked at Wang Cuilian who was at the side again: "Cuilian, you also came in this year, so you can change your shoes and come with us."

Wang Cuilian was a little flattered.

"Then what... I won't go, Qing'er is the serious daughter-in-law of the old Luo family..." the woman said.

Hearing this, Blacksmith Luo immediately put on a face.

"What stupid thing are you talking about?"

"Qing'er is Tang Yazi's daughter-in-law, you are my daughter-in-law, you are the daughter-in-law of two generations of our old Luo family..."

Wang Cuilian was still very embarrassed, "I'm a remarried widow, so I still won't go..."

The words of inferiority clearly entered the ears of the three people around.

Blacksmith Luo corrected Wang Cuilian seriously: "What's wrong with the widow? Are widows not human?"

"Remember, you are the daughter-in-law that I, Luo Tiejiang Mingmei, are marrying. You used to be a widow, but now, you have a man and a husband's family!"

"Listen to my arrangement, hurry up, change your shoes and let's go to the mountain to burn incense together!"

……

A family of four went up to the back mountain to burn incense together.

Blacksmith Luo put his hands behind his back and led the way.

Luo Fengtang followed closely behind with a bamboo basket in each hand.

Yang Ruoqing took Wang Cuilian's arm and walked behind the team.

This year's twelfth lunar month, the weather is good.

Except for the first few days when it snowed, it has been sunny since then.

During the twelfth lunar month, the sun was shining brightly, so all the cured meat and salted fish were dried in the sun.

And the mountain road under my feet, as well as all the trees and grass in the mountains, were also very dry.

Yang Ruoqing absolutely believed that as long as one match was thrown down, most of the mountain would definitely be set on fire.

"Tang Yazi, be careful when you burn incense, the weather is dry, don't set the mountain on fire."

She couldn't help exhorting Luo Fengtang's back.

Luo Fengtang turned his head and smiled at her: "Well, I will be careful."

The four came to the ancestral grave of the old Luo family, burned incense and kowtowed.

Then when they climbed over a mountain ridge, they also encountered a large army from the old Yang family.

Old Yang headed the team, Yang Huaan, Yang Huazhong, Yang Huaming, Yang Huazhou brothers were all there.

In the son's generation, except for Yang Hualin who stayed in the county town in a fit of anger and did not come back, all of them came.

Among the grandchildren, except for Yang Yongzhi and Kang Xiaozi, everyone else also came.

Two groups of people met on the mountain ridge, and they sat together and smoked for a while.

At this time, I met several groups of people from the village one after another.

Among them, there are those people from the old Wang family.

In the mountains, the sound of firecrackers came one after another, it was really lively.

After resting enough, everyone went their separate ways to burn incense again.

Here, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang came to the grave of Luo Laoer.

Luo Fengtang knelt down in front of the grave, Yang Ruoqing followed and knelt with him.

Although Tang Yazi's own father is not buried in the tomb in front of him.

However, Yang Ruoqing kowtowed three times very piously.

Back then, if Luo Laoer hadn't rushed on the road starry night and tried everything to bring Luo Fengtang back to Changping Village, he would have been murdered as a baby.

Therefore, this kindness is greater than the sky!
