After dressing up as the wife of the hero of the imperial examination, I ran away

Chapter 215
In addition to stepping on the new year, Li Shi also told Su Xiaomu that on the night of the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, everyone will put a copper basin in the courtyard after dark, pile some pine and cypress branches in it, light cigarettes, and call it "burning the pine pot for the new year". .

The smoke symbolizes every year, which is very auspicious.

After burning the cigarettes, everyone will enter the house together, and the younger generation will say auspicious words to the elders and kowtow to salute one by one from older to younger. This is also called "Farewell to the New Year".

After that, everyone sits around and eats together. Some people also call this New Year's Eve dinner "Shousui".

Su Xiaomu really found it very interesting after listening to it, and began to look forward to the evening's activities more and more.

Mrs. Li and Mr. Gu wrapped a big red envelope for her. When Su Xiaomu held the red envelope, she was quite emotional. Ever since she started working, she was the one who gave out red envelopes to others. She had long forgotten what it was like to receive a red envelope. .

But it also reminded her that she had to send it to the children at home.

Li Shi and the others bought a lot of festive red cloth at home, and the quilts and sheets they changed for Su Xiaomu and Gu Jingcheng were also all red.

With such a big battle and such a festive New Year, Su Xiaomu was overwhelmed for a long time before he cut a part of the unused red cloth and used it to make red envelopes for the younger generation at home.

Gu Jingcheng accompanied her by Su Xiaomu's side, and Su Xiaomu also happened to talk to him about the red envelope.

"Mother gave me a big red envelope just now. I was thinking that we also made money outside, so I should give them some... But I'm still not sure about the amount."

After Su Xiaomu put away the red envelopes of several children, he took out the largest red cloth and gave it to Gu Jingcheng, her face was full of confusion and hesitation.

"Will it be as much as theirs, or a little more than theirs?"

If it's the same amount, Su Xiaomu thinks it's quite boring, it's no different from returning the money given to them by the second elder with a different excuse.

"There's no need for envelopes. Parents gave us red envelopes to give us their New Year's blessings. What's more, the family has saved a lot of money this year, and all our expenses in Fucheng are paid by you. Now this is very good, a family If people are too clearly distinguished, it won’t work.”

Gu Jingcheng thought that he had only married a family but not established a career, so he could not be regarded as a completely independent child.

Su Xiaomu thought that what Gu Jingcheng said was reasonable, so he took the red cloth back from his hand and went out to have fun with everyone.

Su Xiaomu has been very leisurely for a few days. The work at home has been taken away by the elder sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law. She has nothing to do, but after hearing that Gu Jingcheng is going to the city on the second day of junior high school, she suddenly became interested. I want to go to town with him.

After all, who wouldn't want to go shopping instead of doing nothing at home?

"Maybe I haven't visited our shop for a long time. It's been more than half a year. I'm still curious about what it looks like now."

Su Xiaomu thought that she still had a deal with Boss Zhang. He hadn't contacted him for more than half a year, and he didn't know what went wrong, which made him forget about their cooperation?

"Then go together, I'll be free later, and I can also be with you..."

Gu Jingcheng thought that he didn't have much to do, so maybe he could spare some time for Su Xiaomu.

It's just that before he finished speaking, Su Xiaomu suddenly pulled a few children and invited them into the city together. He was so excited that he didn't take what Gu Jingcheng wanted to say to his heart at all.

"Mother, the children are bored at home, why don't you come to the city with me for a stroll, I am an elder, and I didn't buy anything for them when I came back this time, why don't you take this opportunity and let me do my best?" .”

Su Xiaomu quite likes to go shopping with a few children.

Mrs. Li originally thought that it would be difficult for the young couple to go out with so many children. After all, when the husband and wife spend time alone, they can cultivate a lot of feelings.

But when Su Xiaomu said that she wanted to buy things for the children to show her elder affection, she couldn't refuse, so she nodded without saying anything, and Mrs. Li somewhat explained to Su Xiaomu.

"If you want to take them with you, you can take them with you. But if the children are naughty, you, an elder, don't get used to them too much. You should teach them a lesson."

"It's mother." Seeing Li's agreement, Su Xiaomu nodded happily, "Of course I will take them well, mother, don't worry."

With Li's permission, Su Xiaomu took all the children of the family with him, and the carriage staggered forward, and entered the city after a while.

Gu Jingcheng wanted to talk to Zhou Lin about something. He no longer needed to ride in a carriage, but he still limped when he walked. It could be seen that his leg was injured and he was not as healthy as before.

Su Xiaomu looked at Gu Jingcheng's back, until the back disappeared in front of her eyes, she looked away with a sense of loss.

Gu Ruotong is a sensitive child. After noticing Su Xiaomu's gaze, he whispered, "Third Aunt...Third Uncle's legs..."

"It's just a small injury, it won't take long to get better."

Su Xiaomu was brought back to her thoughts by what Gu Ruotong said, a smile instantly appeared on her beautiful face, and she took Gu Ruotong's hand affectionately and walked forward: "Let's go shopping, if there is anything you want to buy, just tell me, Third Aunt doesn't care about it now." Bad money."

"Okay, we will definitely not be polite to Third Aunt!"

Gu Ruonan is someone who has been to Fucheng, so she knows that Su Xiaomu is indeed a rich man, plus she has a good relationship with her, so naturally she won't say anything to evade.

So Su Xiaomu led them around the street, and then went to a dim sum shop.

I bought a lot of snacks for a few children, and let them sit at a table beside them to eat, and then I went to talk to Boss Zhang by myself.

The boss at first didn't realize that it was Su Xiaomu who came, but thought it was a lady from a rich family who was out shopping with her child. After seeing her face clearly from behind, he immediately greeted the rare visitor and shouted: "Miss Su, this is a big girl!" I haven't seen you for half a year, but there are quite a few changes compared to before, and I don't know where you made your fortune?"

"Boss Zhang's words really upset me. I haven't seen you for a long time. I haven't even heard a word from you, boss. Could it be that the boss forgot to sign a contract with me? Are you going to open the dim sum shop in the capital?"

Although Gu Jingcheng doesn't know if he can go to the Spring Festival next year as scheduled, Su Xiaomu's desire to go to the capital will not disappear because his Spring Festival is blocked.

She is someone who wants to make a lot of money, how can she not go to the capital?
"Speaking of this...you really don't blame me."

Boss Zhang also remembered what happened in the capital city, and he had spent a lot of time on it at the beginning. He saw that the matter was about to be completed, but... the obstacles came one after another, making it really difficult for him to display his talent.

Boss Zhang suddenly became frowning: "Not long ago, the locust plague and snowstorm..."
