Eldest daughter

Chapter 272
After moving to a new house, it took Wang Yuan'er and Wang Qing'er three whole days to arrange the things they moved one by one.

In the house with two entrances, Wang Yuan'er and the others live in the two entrances. There is a main room with a small flower hall, and two east and west wing rooms, each with two side rooms and two rooms. The rooms are very spacious.

There are too many rooms, so there is no need to squeeze together. Wang Yuan'er lived in the east wing by himself, and the small side room was arranged as a small study, which was used for reading and writing for daily accounts.

This year's business has brought a lot of dividends, and Wang Yuan'er didn't spare her. The rooms for her sisters were all tidy and elegant, especially her own room, which had brought back calligraphy and paintings, which seemed a bit bookish.

Wang Qing'er lives in the West Wing. She likes to be prosperous, and she arranges the house very eye-catchingly. She also pestered Wang Yuan'er to buy a few plum vases. with big peonies.

After seeing the elegance in the eldest sister's room, I couldn't think about it, so I bought a painting and hung it up. Looking at it, it looked like a young lady's boudoir.

As for the two young ones, Lan'er was placed in another room in the East Wing, together with Baolai.

The sisters all have their own rooms, and Wang Yuaner has prepared other rooms in the west wing, just waiting for the pot to be warmed up on the fifth day of the new year, when grandpa and the others come, there will be a place to live, so all bedding and so on should be prepared properly.

After busy work, it was the 29th of the new year, and tomorrow was New Year's Eve. It was the first year for Wang Yuaner and the others to celebrate the new year in their new home. Although there were only a few of them, they still wanted to have a good New Year.

Mrs. Wang originally wanted them to go to the old house to celebrate the New Year, but the old man Wang stopped them, saying that since they lived in a new house, it would be difficult to be empty for the first year, so they let them celebrate the New Year here by themselves. .

On the other hand, Second Aunt, after hearing what Mrs. Wang and the others said, she said sourly that they could go to Wang Yuan'er and the others to celebrate the New Year. Anyway, their place is big, and there is plenty of land to live in.

Ever since she saw Wang Yuaner's big house, Second Aunt's eyes had never been normal, and they were always red. If they could live in it, it would be as they wished.

Yuan Yatou and the others' house is so well done, it's big and bright, the land is also wide, the layout is very upright, and it's cute and enviable.

They are all surnamed Wang, why is there such a big gap!

For Mrs. Zhang's proposal, Mrs. Wang rejected it without even thinking about it, and even scolded her several times, so that Mrs. Zhang couldn't even raise her head, and she just sulked resentfully.

It was the first time that they had a new year in their own house, and Wang Yuaner also wanted to do well. They killed a pig for pork and raised some chickens. Wang Yuaner went to the market to see the good luck of having more than a year Can you buy some fish, and some melon seeds, candies and other new year necessities.

Changle Town is close to the capital city, so it can be regarded as the north. It is rare to see live fish in this cold winter.

Wang Yuan'er went all over the market, but couldn't find any live fish for sale, so he had to buy a frozen fish from a stall that often sold fish.

It would be great if live fish could be eaten in this New Year's festival in the north, Wang Yuaner thought in his heart, if he couldn't buy it, why not raise it by himself?

Wang Yuan'er felt a little restless in her heart, thinking that in the spring of next year, she would also go to find out if there was a fish pond or something.

After buying fish, Wang Yuan'er went to buy rice cakes. Every family will make rice cakes during Chinese New Year, but this year they just moved, so they didn't prepare anything, and they were in a hurry to make rice cakes, so they just bought them.

The rice cake seller was also acquainted with Wang Yuan'er. When he saw her, he praised her vigorously. Their house is really eye-catching.

It's not a big deal, but she insisted on giving her rice cakes for free. Wang Yuan'er was embarrassed, so she smiled and asked them to come over to sit at home on the fifth day of the new year, and they all agreed with a smile.

On New Year's Eve and New Year's Eve, Wang Yuan'er woke up Wang Qing'er and the others early in the morning, boiled water and killed chickens, and made arrangements for sacrifices.

At this moment, Fodor came running out of breath.

"Sister, grandma asked me to tell you, if you don't know about sacrifices, just wait a while, she has done sacrifices in the old house, so she will help you!"

Wang Yuan'er looked at his red cheeks from the cold, and said with a smile: "You tell grandma not to come here, I can do a good job here, it has snowed and icy on the ground these days, the road is slippery and difficult to walk, so as not to fall It's gone." She said, went to the house and grabbed a handful of candy and stuffed it into his hand, saying: "Take it back and eat."

Fudor licked his lips, and said with a simple smile: "Eldest sister, there are sweets at home."

"If you have it, you can do it. Do you still think that the big sister is not good?" Wang Yuan'er pinched his face with a smile, and then said: "When you go back, don't run away, and be careful to fall."

"If you fall and make your ass bloom, you will cry a lot." Wang Qing'er came out of the kitchen with a smile, just when she heard this, she interjected.

Fudor shyly agreed and was about to go back.

"Fuduo, I'll go play with you after noon, or you come to my house?" Lan'er called.

Fuduo's eyes lit up, he looked at her, and then at Wang Yuaner: "Sister, can I come?"

His eyes were clear, and there was longing in his eyes. Wang Yuan'er just smiled: "If there is anything you can't do, just come if you want. It's just that it's too cold outside and the road is slippery. Why don't you practice calligraphy in the afternoon!"

Fuduo went to the school, Lan Er did not go, but Wang Yuaner taught her at home.

Hearing Wang Yuaner's promise, Fuduo smiled happily: "Then I'll go back first, and come after dinner."

Wang Yuaner and the others looked at each other with a smile, and went back to work.

Wang Yuan'er has seen Mrs. Wang do the sacrificial offering many times, and this is the first time she does it by herself, but because she knows the process, she is not in a hurry.

After worshiping at the parents' tablet, worshiping all kinds of gods, and lighting up incense sticks, it's almost noon.

The siblings ate a little, and after noon, Fuduo came again, carrying his little book bag.

Wang Yuan'er asked them to go to Lan'er's house to read characters, while she and Wang Qing'er went into the kitchen again, mixed the paste, and prepared to paste couplets.

After the paste was ready, Hou Biao came over with Hou Dan in his arms. After questioning, it turned out that he was Ying Chun'er who came to help paste the couplets.

"Is everything posted in your home?" Wang Chun'er asked with a smile.

"It's all posted." Hou Biao asked Hou Dan to play with Baolai and the others, moved the ladder with a smile, and said: "Chun'er also wants to come over, I think she is busy moving these days, she seems to be tired, I was a little tired, so I didn't let her come."

Wang Yuan'er was anxious when she heard this: "But it's cold? It's been very cold these days, don't be greedy for cold, do you have a fever or something?"

"I don't see any fever, but my mental head is not very good. I must be tired. Don't worry, elder sister." Hou Biao replied.

Wang Yuan'er nodded and said, "It's cold, you need to heat up your kang."

"Hey!"

Hou Biao moved neatly, You Qing'er smeared the couplets with paste, and quickly pasted several couplets.

Seeing that it was still early, Hou Biao helped to split the firewood next to the kitchen, and Wang Yuan'er was worried that Chun'er would not be taken care of, so he let him go back.

"My second brother-in-law really loves my second sister!" Wang Qing'er said to Wang Yuan'er with a smile after waiting for Biao to leave.

"Marrying a man and marrying a man, don't you just know how to know the hot and the cold, can you understand?" Wang Yuan'er poked her on the forehead, taking the opportunity to preach.

Wang Qing'er pouted, and said: "Eldest sister, you are here again, I don't know how Master Cui will love you in the future?"

"It's just your poor mouth, hurry up and cook, it's getting dark." Wang Yuan'er said with a smile.

There are only four siblings in the huge house, Wang Yuan'er and Qing'er are preparing the New Year's Eve dinner, and Lan'er is playing with Baolai.

Until the sky turned dark, the New Year's Eve dinner was placed in the dining room next to the stove. Wang Yuan'er packed a bowl of each meal and presented it in front of the tablet of his parents, and lit the incense again.

"Father, mother, it's Chinese New Year, it's time to eat." Looking at the name on the tablet behind the smoke, she said softly.

There were not many people at the dinner table, but there was Wang Qing'er, a living treasure, and Wang Baolai, a kid who just talked smoothly. You said I laughed, but it was not deserted.

Wang Yuan'er was happy, and drank two glasses of fruit wine with Wang Qing'er, her cheeks were bright red.

After eating, they made dumplings, and everyone ate the copper coin dumplings. When Shou Da was older, the two little ones couldn't bear it anymore and fell asleep, leaving only Wang Yuaner and Qinger talking about themselves. .

"Sister, our family really needs to add some servants." Wang Qing'er said suddenly while she was embroidering a piece of embroidery.

"Huh?" Wang Yuan'er was very surprised, how could she say this.

"Sister, after another year, you will be eighteen. If everything goes well, you will definitely get married in the next two years. I am also fifteen. How many years can I stay? Lan'er is only eight years old, and my younger brother is Not to mention, we are only two years old. If we are all married, who else is there in this family?" Wang Qing'er said with a sullen brow, "It's not that I want to talk about style, it's not easy for us to recruit a younger brother, but we are married , how can we always take care of my mother’s family, my younger brothers are too young, we have to train them some reliable talents.”

Wang Yuan'er was very surprised, stopped the needle and thread in his hand, looked at Qing'er's pretty face under the light, and said sincerely: "Qing'er, you have really grown up."

Wang Qing'er blushed, laughed at herself and said, "Sister, I'm not stupid, I can see everything clearly!"

Wang Yuan'er's nose was slightly sour, and she said: "As you said, Eldest Sister has already thought about it, no matter what, Eldest Sister will arrange it well. As for the manpower, I also entrusted Master Cui to pay attention." She said as if betting: "Baolai is The hope of our team, Eldest Sister will not take it lightly."

Wang Qinger breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and said, "I'm afraid that elder sister, you think our family is too high-profile and won't buy anyone!"

She always thought that Wang Yuan'er was afraid that people outside would say that their family would make publicity and would not do such high-ranking things. After all, there were not many people like them with such status, but they bought servants to serve them.

"Human, how can I be poor for a lifetime? I don't care what other people think, I just hope that our family will be well, Baolai will have a future, and our branch will be passed on." Wang Yuaner's eyes were firm.

Wang Qing'er nodded, suddenly, crackling firecrackers sounded from a distance, one family rang, and other families rang one after another.

"Sister, it's New Year's Eve!" Wang Qinger's face beamed with joy.

Wang Yuan'er smiled and put down the needle and thread in her hand, and said, "Come on, let's set off cannons to welcome the new year together!"
