Poor family mother and son

Chapter 445
The Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional festival that has existed in the Chuqing world for more than 500 years. It originated from the worship of natural phenomena and evolved from the worship of dragons in ancient times.

It is said that on the fifth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar every year, a tribal totem sacrifice ceremony with dragon boat races as the mainstay is held.

The ancestors went boating on the river one after another to welcome the dragon god back from the sea, hoping to bring a happy life. This is another saying about the origin of dragon boat rowing on the Dragon Boat Festival.

According to the Yin Yang Eight Diagrams, the Qian Gua Liuyao Quanyang representing April is the first month of "Tai Ji", and on the fifth day of May, "Tai Ji will not come".

On the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, the yang qi is at its peak, everything is reversed, and the yin qi begins to grow.Yin Qi is often associated with disease and evil in ancient Chinese culture.Therefore, the fifth day of May has always been regarded as an unlucky day by the ancient people.

Because the Dragon Boat Festival is a "evil day", May [-]th is midsummer, the sun is scorching, the humidity is in full swing, poisonous insects and germs are vigorous, and people's emotions will reach the peak of "hostility" during this period.

All of these naturally arouse people's collective anxiety, and the way to relieve anxiety is naturally to find ways to drive away evil spirits and avoid disasters.

Therefore, exorcising evil spirits has become the most important content of the Dragon Boat Festival. After thousands of years of precipitation, it has gradually formed what everyone takes for granted and has become a custom, which is called "custom" for short.

On May [-]th, when the "five poisons are exhausted", from eating rice dumplings, rowing dragon boats, wearing sachets, tying colorful ropes, hanging mugwort, planting calamus, drinking realgar wine to bathing orchids, the main traditions of the Dragon Boat Festival that have been handed down Customs, all directly related to exorcism, essentially help people transform their inner anxieties and fears.

Chu Qing kept wearing sachets and tying multicolored ropes as festival items for "celebration". In her own world, she would make them for Meng Dong every year during the Dragon Boat Festival.

And after arriving in this world, she also made for Xiaobao, although it is not exquisite, the style is more novel.

Dragon Boat Festival is traditionally a sacrificial ceremony, but in Chuqing's place, it is celebrated as a "festival".

This year's Dragon Boat Festival, she and Xiaobao were in different places, and she couldn't wear the sachet and colorful rope for Xiaobao by herself, so she just brought them this time.

Mind, don't care sooner or later.

At that time, Xiaobao clamored to tie the colorful rope, not only to wear it himself, but also clamored to put it on for the children.

Fortunately, a whole shaft of multicolored ropes was prepared, and Chu Qing took the trouble to tie them one by one, and there were still a lot left after tying them all. Simply, everyone in the yard, no matter adults or children, tied them one by one. Yes, and Shui Mao Mao is no exception.

However, there were only two sachets, which were for Xiaobao and Gan, and Chu Yuan didn't have any.

While tying the colorful rope, Chu Qing continued the unfinished topic just now: "You suggested that everyone catch locusts with good intentions, but if you didn't get good results, it may not all be because you offended the people;
When people are about to starve to death, don’t they even eat the dead?At that time, even the humanity was gone, so how could you still think about gods and immortals?

So, it’s also possible that, like me, you might be lied to, but if you’re really angry and don’t insist on it, can your original intention be realized?”

That's right, Xiaobao's original intention was to find a way for everyone not to be hungry, a way to eliminate locusts, but did he really give up?

It doesn't matter if you give up, anyway, you are not the one who is hungry, but if you really give up, you are admitting cowardly!
How can Xiaobao admit cowardice!
Little Treasure looked at the colorful rope while shaking his ankle, and said, "Mother, it's better for you to let them slap themselves in the face and make a loud slap!

I want to learn from you, I can't just lie down wherever I fall, but just like my mother, wherever I fall, I will make a big hole wherever I fall! "

Chu Qing: "..."

Before Xiaobao was kidnapped by Wu Shirong, Chu Yuan explained in his letter to her, but he only talked about Xiaobao, and incidentally mentioned that "the master of the boat gang has help", and did not say much about the rest.

Therefore, in Shui Maomao's narration, he clearly knew that this person was the leader of the Chuan Gang, and was very surprised by the types of "friends" Xiaobao made.

She wasn't sure why Xiaobao would deal with this kind of person, but she could guess some.

Just like how Xiaobao kept "Ah Yes" by his side back then, Chu Qing felt that Xiaobao was building up his "strength".

As for why he did this, maybe his own mother was not his own mother after all, so he couldn't bring him enough sense of security.

"Little Treasure, do you want me to go to the council office of Chongyu Mansion and leave some food there too?" Chu Qing asked.

Perhaps, doing the same in Chongyu Mansion can solve Xiaobao's current predicament.

"No!" Xiaobao objected, "Just leave some food for me, mother and son will settle the score, I will buy you money for food, but the food street in Yibin Mansion will not give it to you, it is a gift from my mother!"

Xiaobao made it clear.He actually didn't want to expose his mother-child relationship with Chu Qing.

This is clearly felt, but "Baoqing Technician Academy" has something to do with him, how can this be covered up?

So Chu Qing asked: "Didn't you still run a school here?"

Xiaobao said: "The school is run by Xiaobao, and I am Qian Sanshun."

Oh, OK.Chu Qing didn't say anything.

Xiao Bao pointed to Chu Yuan and Xiao Sining: "Mother, Da Shun, Er Shun," and pointed to himself: "Qian San Shun, we are relatives of Qian Pingjian's family in Chuanfang."

When Xiaobao said that, he didn't shy away from Shui Maomao and his party, and Chu Qing glanced at them calmly.

Shui Maomao said: "Your nickname is too mediocre, you have the same name everywhere."

This is Shui Maomao's promise to Chu Qing: I am dealing with Qian Sanshun, and I don't know anything else.

Hou Ze and the children were picking up food, as if they hadn't heard anything.

Chu Qing smiled, the child has really grown up, and the people he made friends with all have a tacit understanding with him.

Chu Qing said: "Okay, if you need me to do something, just say it, and I will cooperate."

Xiaobao: "Just buy some food from you. In the name of Sanshun Escort, I will also exchange locusts for food. Whoever makes trouble will come out by themselves, and the people who are short of food will naturally stigmatize them."

After mother's suggestion, Xiaobao also thought that it might not be ordinary people who could launch the public opinion against him this time, someone must have secretly instigated it.

As for who incited it, it's easy to think of it, the black butler.

This time Xiaobao perfectly transported several shipments of black-glazed porcelain to Duke Cheng's mansion, and the black steward had to pay the balance according to the contract.

Because of this, he was severely repaired by Kong Pugao. Fortunately, the black butler had been running the black-glazed porcelain kiln for the Kong family since his father's generation, and Kong Pugao did not dispose of him.

But the dream of becoming the chief butler was completely shattered, and even the wealth saved by the black butler himself was used to make up for the economic loss caused this time.
