Little Fubao from the farmhouse takes space to flee famine

Chapter 58
The Wang family is quite busy today, several women are making incense bowls, pulling red cloths, setting up desks, and frying peanuts.

Today is the day of beaming, which is very important to them, so they specially picked a good day.

There are a lot of specialties in the upper beam, mainly for auspiciousness.

Whether a house is strong or not, the key lies in the beams. Of course, the selection of beams is very particular, and most people use pine wood as the mainstay.

The beams selected by Wang Yongan are very straight, with straight top and bottom ends, and even thickness. It is better to be long than short, which symbolizes the long life.

Grandma Hua is pulling the red thread, which will be used to string copper coins later.

Father Wang took out the couplets and wanted to ask Meng Ruanqin to write festive couplets for his family.

Meng Ruanqin was naturally happy and used wood to flatten the couplet paper.

The green dragon supports the jade pillar, the white tiger supports the golden beam, and the horizontal comment: the upper beam is auspicious.

Liu Chunlan set up a simple desk with some food on it.

Father Wang lit incense on the desk, and after bowing devoutly, firecrackers blared.

With the sound of firecrackers, several men began to walk to the selected beams.

Wang Yongan learned what his master taught him before, and read: "On the beams and beams, Lu Ban is present; the thick ones are used as pillars, and the straight ones are used as beams; the best use of wood comes in handy."

Mazi took the rope for lifting the beam and wrapped it around the beam.

"The sun is good and the time is good, the sky and the earth are open; the auspicious day of the zodiac coincides with the top of the beam, the first one is the number one scholar's house, and the last one is the prime minister's house."

An Ran listened carefully and was quite curious. It turned out that to go up to the beam not only requires choosing a good time, but also saying auspicious words.

Several men tied the thick main beam with ropes, and began to lift the beam.

Several men hummed the Liangwen in a rather rhythmic manner. Although they didn't know a few Chinese characters, they kept the knowledge they needed to eat in mind.

"Today, Tianjing came to the beam. I am in charge of the Haohua Hall built in the east. The Hua Tang is built on the dragon's mouth. Everyone came to the beam together. One step up to the top of the beam, two steps up to the two phoenixes facing the sun, three steps up to the three yuan and brother. Take four steps to get rich all year round, take five steps to get rich grains, take six steps to six, the spring will come, take seven steps to seven stars will shine, take eight steps to eight immortals to float in the sea, take nine steps to get nine sons, get everything in ten steps, and be prosperous and wealthy for eternity. …”

Not far away, there were villagers who came to watch the fun. The Wang family's green brick courtyard was built, and it was really spacious and grand.

In order to be happy, everyone stood outside the yard, and some even asked everyone to come and see.

This is a great joy!One must know that Qinghe Village hasn't had a big happy event for a long time.

Standing on the roof of the main house is a young man, tall and handsome in appearance.

He is the person who was elected by everyone today to pull the beam. The person who pulls the beam is more important than the one who carries it.

In the eyes of the elderly, the person pulling the beam must be a young man with both parents and good characters.

Everyone in the yard watched the main beam being pulled up to the roof and cheered, very happy.

When the main beam was erected, Mazi shouted: "The golden mouth is facing the golden beam, and the warehouse is filled with gold and silver."

After the beam was placed, Mazi hammered the beam into the crack with an axe, and said loudly after one blow: "Three hammers on the left will bring blessings to the whole family, and three hammers on the right will be the number one scholar."

Wang Yongan looked at Mazi with admiration, when did this guy learn so many things.

After the beam was laid, Wang Yongan took out the grain bag and sugar that Aunt Hua had just prepared.

Standing on it and spreading it down, this is commonly known as "throwing beams".

People in the yard were the happiest, picking up the sprinkled sugar and some fried peanuts with their hands.

The Wang family was not stingy either. In addition to spilling from the house, the Wang family also filled a large sieve with sugar and melons and fruits.

Everyone said festive words and took the sugar and peanuts distributed by the ladies of the royal family.

"If everyone is happy, stay and have a meal, it will be lively."

The big guy was naturally willing, and asked if he could call his family over.

"It's a beaming day, a happy day, everyone come to eat."

Originally, the Wang family thought it was too ostentatious and did not notify the village that the beams were going to be carried out today. They thought it would be just as much fun as the family and the masters doing the work.

Now that everyone is here, I am sorry not to invite you to warm up the new house.

"I said Changyi, don't call us on such a big day, everyone will come and cheer you up."

Cao Defa took the villagers with him, and everyone prepared more or less small gifts.

"Yo yo yo! This house is so well repaired!"

Wang Tieniu's family, with a basket of dug bamboo shoots in their hands, looked around the house that the Wang family had repaired.

There are a dozen or so rooms in this green brick and tile house, which is so grand.

It's amazing that their family can afford to build a room. It really has been appreciated by the big shots, and now it's flourishing.

Some people sincerely congratulate others and others are jealous, why don't they have such an opportunity.

Fang Cuiying spoke cheerfully today, and even the women she didn't usually like to see greeted her with smiles.

People in the village, regardless of whether they are lonely, old or young, came to please them one after another.

Liu Chunlan and Grandma Hua wrapped the wages in red cloth. Compared with the normal amount of wages, each red cloth was doubled.

"Thank you sister-in-law!"

As soon as Mazi weighed it, he knew that the money was quite a lot. You must know that he worked hard today and learned a lot of auspicious words, just to get two more happy money.

Zhang Guihua was busy cooking, too many people came, and she didn't prepare enough dishes.

An Ran pointed to the basket. She took some vegetables grown on the farm. They were all good vegetables and common ones, such as potatoes, cabbage, beans and so on.

The other women who came were also discerning and helped fold vegetables and peel garlic, laughing and chatting from time to time.

Of course, more people gossip about how the Wang family got rich, with different versions, asking how they got to know the big officials.

What's more, some people even have the idea of ​​​​Daddy Wang. You must know that this old man has been widowed for many years, and he has no companion in his old age.

Now that the family has a lot of money and a lot of money, it wouldn't be nice to find a younger companion to grow old with!
"I said you should say a few words less, so as not to make the Wang family unhappy."

An old woman reminded him that Mr. Wang was a capable man, and he often missed his deceased wife. Whether he could find one depends on how rich he is now.

The women didn't avoid An Ran when they spoke, and listening to their conversation, she felt that the abacus beads were about to fall off her face.

"Da Shan, why don't you call your girls and let them have a nice meal."

Mazi got his wages and happily grabbed the peanuts and candies on the table to eat.

Dashan shook his head. Her youngest daughter is still recovering from injuries at home. Her daughter is deaf and dumb, and now she was bitten by a dog. He doesn't want everyone to laugh at him, and he doesn't want the women here to look at his daughter with strange eyes.

"Brother Dashan, go and fetch your girl to play with. There are still candies and peanuts at home. Give them some sweet treats. We will have a meal together later, and you can also play with my girl Ling.

You see, my family is full of kids, so I asked your girl to be a companion and play together. "

Dashan scratched his head, unable to resist the warm hospitality. If he didn't come, the girl in the family wouldn't be able to have such a good meal for several years.

"I'll go with you, you grinder, what are you afraid of!"

Mazi patted the other party's shoulder and left the little girls at home to eat something light and watery, so they might as well eat something good.

The mouth grows on other people, and they love to talk and talk, and it is true when they are full.
