Ugly peasant girl in space

Chapter 973 New Year's greetings (1)
After eating and drinking enough, Qingli yawned and walked outside twice to digest food. The uncle's house was expanded later, it was very large, and there were many houses. There was enough room for guests. The family originally wanted to buy a piece of land To rebuild a larger house, parents think about it and give up.

The second sister, Qing Qiang, is married and lives in the capital. The eldest brother Mo Zigui may be dispatched as an official after passing the Jinshi examination. The third brother is fighting in Muyang. Qishan Academy, the courtyard of the house is empty, and it is enough to live in for the time being.

The wait was long, and Qingli was bored, so she went back to her home and lit candles in the side hall. This meeting was for the mother and Maidong Maiya to find time to pay New Year's greetings. The three of them worked hard all day and were exhausted. The big red envelopes were full, and everyone smiled.

Although I can't go to see my grandparents with my mother in the second year of junior high school, there are a lot of gifts that should be given, and her cousin Liu Mu has already passed the examination of scholar. Most scholars like elegant things, pens, inks, paper and inkstones. , there is a lot of space, and I am worried that there is no place to give it away.

From grandparents, uncles and aunts, to cousins ​​and children at home, as well as cousin Ginkgo and the others, Qingli meticulously prepared the New Year's ceremony, and was shocked when they piled up. There were two big boxes.

The other small box is for Qingdai’s cousin. She will return to the village in the second year of junior high school. The second uncle and the second aunt are in Kyoto, and the uncle’s family and her parents are in Mo’s Village. In recent days, when she was about to give birth, the aunt couldn't leave, so she stayed to entertain her.

Turn off the oil lamp, light a red candle, Qingli holds his chin, there is no moon tonight, how do the soldiers in the Northland celebrate, light a bonfire, have a New Year’s Eve dinner, watch the New Year’s Eve at night, they should be able to eat dumplings, Chunyu the devil will Don't miss her too?

"Miss, actually, this old slave has something to tell you, and I almost forgot."

Nanny Yu swallowed her saliva, and moved a small pier to sit down, "You may not know, but the major general is actually born on the second day of the Lunar New Year, and that day is his birthday."

When Chunyu was born, there was a war, and the old general Chunyu was in the north. On the second day of junior high school, Wen went back to her mother's house with a big belly. Who would have thought that she would have a stomachache just after arriving at her mother's house, depending on the situation, she was about to give birth.

It is a custom in Kyoto that a married woman cannot give birth in her natal family, which is very unlucky. At that time, there was no way but to send her to the mansion of the general who protects the country. At that time, Wen's water had already broken, and it was the first child. It was very dangerous, Mrs. After tossing and tossing for several hours, Wen took a deep breath, exhausted his last strength, and gave birth to Chunyu Wen with all his might.

"Birthday of the second year of junior high school?"

Qingli was very shocked, and felt that she seemed to have overlooked something. Although the two were engaged, she didn't know many things. Birthday is a big event. This year Chunyu Wen turned 21. She actually forgot to ask such an important thing, thanks to the mother remind.

But here comes the question, what should Chunyu get as a gift for the devil's birthday?She didn't know what to give him as a surprise, clothes, shoes and socks, all of these were given away, daggers, food, they were all common things.

Purse?handkerchief?You can't send yourself out, it's a tangled issue.

"Miss, you might as well set up a banquet yourself."

Mai Ya obviously thought of this too, Miss is very concerned about the major general in minor matters, the two of them should pay more attention to the details.The idea of ​​malt is good, but it's a little ordinary, that's all, what kind of romance does that devil know.

It was getting darker and darker, Qingli shook her head, thinking about this problem, the master and servants closed the courtyard door and went to the uncle's house to watch the new year. At this moment, there was already a row of white and fat dumplings on the table. Cousin Mo Qingju was dexterous, Once pinched, it becomes a beautiful ingot. Nianping doesn't know how to make dumplings, and she mutters that she needs to learn, her face and forehead are covered with white flour.

"Girl Li, go wash your hands, come over and make some dumplings for the occasion!"

Mrs. Liu said hello, the whole family, even Xiao Zixi made one, just to make it auspicious. Qingli is not good at making dumplings. In Kyoto, servants make them in the kitchen and serve them. It's better than Nianping.

It took less than half an hour to look at the ion, and the family cooked dumplings in a big pot. In previous years, the family would prepare copper coins, wash them and put them in them. This year, they did not make lottery. They were afraid of knocking their teeth and copper coins were unhygienic. Qingli chose Two kinds of fillings were combined, and I ate a bowl of steaming big dumplings.

After the dumplings were eaten, the sound of firecrackers came from the village one after another. Zixi and Nianyang were already drowsy. As soon as they heard the noise, they immediately sat up excitedly from the kang. The child Wang Mo Zisong led them, and everyone followed behind him, arrogantly He strode vigorously.

Soon there was the sound of firecrackers in the yard, and when the last sound was over, a few young people entered the door with unsatisfied intentions, and everyone sat in a circle, waiting for the arrival of the midnight, and the new year would be soon.

The family has many good wishes. Qingli may be the next one. At first, she hoped that her family would be safe and happy. Later, she felt that she had to start from the big picture, and prayed for the prosperity of the country and the safety of the people. The common people had enough food and clothing to get rid of the suffering of the war, and made several wishes in a series before she thought of a problem, which was too worrying and more lenient than the emperor.

As soon as the child time passes, it means ushering in a new year.After the New Year's Eve, it was midnight. Zixi and the little ones ran wildly for a day, exhausted, and drowsy with their heads drooping. Rest here.

The uncle's house has a lot of rooms, which are enough, Xiao Zixi and Nianyang will go back to the room to wash up soon, Qingli wants to have some privacy, so she insists on taking Yu Yu, Mai Ya and Mai Dong home.

At midnight, everyone in the village turned off the lights, and the red lights at the door of every house were still on. They stepped on the snow with deep feet and shallow feet, and walked on the path home. Qingli rubbed her hands. According to the custom, New Year’s Eve After the rooster crows in the morning on the first day of the new year, I have to get up and go out to visit people in the village to pay New Year's greetings.

The last time I celebrated the New Year in Mojia Village was already five years ago. At that time, she was still an ugly girl, she didn't have many friends in the village, and she was always alone on weekdays. Apart from Uncle Mo's house and Aunt Mo Six's house, there was nowhere to go during the New Year's Eve.

On the first day of the new year, the children will prepare a full pocket, go to the village to knock on the door, say auspicious words, get some melon seeds, peanuts, candies, etc., and save them up to eat slowly. If you are rich, you will give a few copper coins. This day is the happiest time for the little ones, not only have pocket money, but also delicious food.

This year, the family also prepared some red lucky bags. Each lucky bag contained a few pennies, which was nothing to Qingli’s family. The small grocery store at the entrance of the village had a lot of purchasing power, and maltose cost a lot for a penny.However, the things distributed in the clan are so good, these little kids have raised their mouths, and I'm afraid they won't be so easy to get rid of in the future.

"Miss, have you thought about preparing a birthday gift for the major general?"
