Chapter 360 New Year's Outlook Pray for Blessings to Save People! (2)

"Crackling crackling..." From the [-]th day of the new year until the tenth day of the first lunar month, the sound of firecrackers in Jing'an Hou's mansion sounded three times a day, as if all bad luck was about to collapse, and the whole year was full of excitement.

Today is the tenth day of the first month of the 18th year of Qiguo, and half of the year has passed. These days, the Jing'an Hou Mansion is very quiet and peaceful. It is exactly as Ye Lao and Sister Hui expected. The days are smooth and happy, don't mention it How happy these grandparents are.

At the beginning of the year and the end of the year, all the prayers have not been left behind. What should be done and what should be paid attention to have all met the requirements expected in the heart. It can be seen that this year will definitely be auspicious and fruitful!

At this time, Sister Hui and Father Ye were discussing about going to Hulong Temple to pray for blessings tomorrow, and Father Ye said, "Sister Hui, last time Master Puji said that our family should go to pray for blessings on the eleventh day of the first lunar month, and pray for a year. Safe and smooth, I hope that this year we will also make everything smooth and auspicious, and we will start early in the morning, so don’t delay the time, it will make the road a little harder.”

Qin Huiyi thought that she hadn't gone out for a long time, because it was best to stay at her own home for the New Year. She didn't go out before the fifth day of the first year. She was supposed to go back to her grandparents' house on the second day of the first year, but her grandmother didn't come back for the New Year this year. , so the Lu family does not need to go.

They didn't go this year, which caused many aristocratic families to whisper about what the Lu family did. This time, according to the five-year agreement, the Lu family took more than 5 taels of silver, which caused Fan's heart a lot of pain. Some of Wu's dowry was filled in, which was hardly enough.

Fortunately, they dared to bring up any ideas with the Ye family. I guess they knew that it was useless to mention them. Now they don't communicate at all.

Sister Hui thought about it: "Father, do we need to prepare anything to go to Hulong Temple? How much money do we need to add incense to our family?"

Usually at the end of the year and the beginning of the year, adding fragrance is very important. Sister Hui was not very sensitive to these before, but she did not reject it. After coming here, she followed the customs of the country, and at the same time, she also hoped that she would get better, so she started doing things like this. Pay attention.

Father Ye asked this practical question to Sister Hui: "Well, at least a thousand taels of silver should be at the minimum. Our father and I are planning to do it alone this year. If there is too little, it will be bad, and too much will attract people. Pay attention."

Qin Hui thought about it and said: "Father, why don't we pay 800 taels, it happens to be an auspicious number, and it's just right, not too much, not too little, after all, it's to pray for our family's well-being this year, it's too little to reach Effect."

Father Ye said, "Okay, it's up to Sister Hui."

Sister Hui bowed her knees and said, "Thank you dad for your support."

Father Ye watched his daughter play tricks and amused him, not to mention how beautiful it was. Sister Hui grew up and knew how to make up her mind on many things, and the results were pretty good, so Father Ye also let her do a lot of things at ease.

Now that the troubled people in the East Side Courtyard are gone, today's Jing'an Hou's Mansion is peaceful and peaceful.

Father Ye said: "Okay, the children have a good rest tonight, and leave early tomorrow morning. You can bring your aunt and the others with you. After all, this Hulong Temple is a famous temple in Qiguo. It is estimated that people who go to incense and pray for blessings will A lot, so you must remember to protect yourself tomorrow, you know?"

Sister Hui smiled sweetly and said, "Don't worry, daddy, I hope they are all skilled, there is no problem."

After everything was explained, Father Ye returned to Nianxin Courtyard. In the early morning of the next day, Sister Hui woke up early, and Sister Jin entered the bedroom and saw that Sister Hui was already up, so she said happily, "Girl, It's really early today, and the master just informed me that the carriage is ready and will set off after breakfast."

Qin Hui nodded and said she understood, so she quickly dressed Sister Hui. Today, Sister Hui is wearing a red hibiscus skirt with flowers scattered all over the place, and a big snow-white cloak. The ruby ​​gold hairpin with red gold cloisonné enamel hibiscus blossoms is beautiful and elegant, and the other accessories are not many, but they are really outstanding.

After Sister Hui was all dressed up, Nurse Jin said with emotion: "The girl is 14 years old this year, and the old servant has grown a little more, and now she is the embryo of a little beauty, who will not know where she will be in a year or two. How wonderful, when the time comes, those who propose marriage will step down the threshold."

Qin Hui replied shyly, "Why are you talking about this? I don't have to let people hear jokes."

The madam said seriously: "The girl, the old slave, didn't say nonsense, if the girl doesn't believe it, go out and see, all the girls in the capital are the same model, either their nostrils are on their foreheads, or they can't wait to hide themselves in the soil. Among them, I am afraid of being found out, there are a few girls like Bingxue who are smart, beautiful and refined, and this old slave is the least likely to lie."

Sister Hui said with a smile, "Did I get up early this morning to eat honey? Your mouth is so sweet, it seems that I won't be able to do it without a reward."

I hurriedly smiled and said: "Then the old slave is shameless and accepted, and the girl will reward you with anything."

"Hehehe..." Several other people also came in and heard the conversation between Sister Hui and Sister Jin, and then everyone laughed together. It seemed that the laughter was the bright sunshine that came in from the window, making everyone feel in their hearts. The sky is lively and enthusiastic, as if the weather in this early spring is not as cold as imagined.

Su Qiu said for a while, "Let's go, girl, the master is waiting for the girl to have breakfast."

Xiuyan hurriedly made the bed for Sister Hui, and Qing Xing started to clean the room. Several people were very busy, and they cleaned up as quickly as possible, but they all thought about going out with the master.

When the meeting arrived at the dining room, Father Ye was giving instructions to Ye Zhong. Now the busiest first few days of the New Year have passed. Although he is busy now, he is not as busy at that time.

Later, after Father Ye and Sister Hui had breakfast, Father Ye rode a horse, and Sister Hui rode in a carriage, slowly driving to the suburbs.

It was peaceful along the way, but I met the unreasonable Zhu family. Today, the mistress of the Zhu family took her two daughters to the incense. The whole way was full of style, and it seemed that the Li family was also with Zhu. When the house is right, whichever way he goes, the Li family goes which way.

Originally, after leaving the city, the official road was not wide. These two families kept coming and going. It was very annoying. Stop and go, you squeezed me and I squeezed you. He opened the curtain and said, "How long will it take for Dad to arrive? If it doesn't work, let's take a different route. My daughter doesn't have an appetite."

Father Ye said nervously, "How are you, Sister Hui? Can you still persevere?"

Sister Hui was all right, but the stop-and-go has made her feel a little car sick. It seems that her body is really not in good shape.

Sister Hui shook her head, and she said hurriedly: "Master Hou, the girl's face is not very good, why don't we change the road. This old slave knows that there is another road here. It is very spacious, but there are not many people walking."
