After hearing the voices of plants, farming in the countryside exploded

Chapter 307: Moving into a New House, the Origin of the Custom
It's the end of the year again.

While others were preparing for their annual summaries or year-end sprints, Zhang Ruanruan had already suspended all work and was leisurely preparing for her move into her new home.

This is the new building that Zhang Ruanruan built this year. It has six floors, an elevator, and covers an area of ​​200 square meters.

Located in the middle of Qingping Village, it is the tallest and largest self-built house in the village.

That piece of land did not originally belong to Zhang Ruanruan's family, but given her current status, as long as she asked, no one would be willing to refuse to trade land with Zhang Ruanruan.

So Zhang Ruanruan easily reached an agreement with several families, exchanging land for land, plus a financial compensation of billions.

This was an idea that Zhang Ruanruan came up with during the Chinese New Year last year.

At that time, my eldest uncle and my second uncle's family came back to celebrate the New Year, but they didn't even have a place to stay overnight.

Of course, neither do Zhang Jianguo, Lin Yuzhen, and Zhang Yangyang.

If grandpa and grandma were still alive, they would definitely be sad to see this scene. Their son came back to celebrate the New Year, but he didn't even have a place to stay.

So, Zhang Ruanruan built a six-story building.

In the future, Feng Nuannian and her friends will have guest rooms when they come to visit, and Zhang Jianguo and Lin Yuzhen can also return to Qingping Village often.

Or looking further ahead, when the eldest uncle and the second uncle retire in the future, they can come back to live permanently and form a trio of farming brothers with Zhang Jianguo.

This day is December 2020, 12.

It is advisable to relocate.

In the morning, it was still dark.

The chef drove a small van and brought over the ingredients to be used today.

All of them are fresh goods just bought from the vegetable market.

The leaves are covered with dew and the shrimps are jumping around.

Not to mention the frozen goods that everyone hates, there is not even overnight goods.

This is one of the core reasons why rural banquets are delicious.

The ingredients are fresh and clean, without any technology or hard work.

"Where's the scale? Bring it here quickly."

Zhang Jianguo shouted at Zhang Fugui.

Zhang Ruanruan's grand banquet this time was fully organized by the chef team.

That is, she only pays the money, and the rest of the buying of groceries, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, pots and pans, and serving the dishes are all the responsibility of the chef team.

As the host, Zhang Ruanruan only needs to weigh all the vegetables when she comes back from shopping to prevent any shortage of weight.

Such as fish.

Zhang Jianguo’s requirement is that each piece weighs 2 kilograms.

We will have 88 tables today, and 88 fish means at least 176 kilograms.

Then vegetables.

What Zhang Jianguo wanted was the most commonly used Shuidong mustard in Mingcheng.

Each table weighs 1 kilograms, so 88 tables weigh 132 kilograms.

There are also prawns, pork belly, sea cucumber, abalone...

After confirming that all quantities are correct, the chef begins preparing the dishes.

And the time now is only six o'clock in the morning.

……

Eight in the morning.

Auspicious time.

The door of the new house.

There was a long queue.

Zhang Jianguo and Lin Yuzhen were in the first group, one on the left and one on the right, carrying a new pot with new bowls and chopsticks in it.

Zhang Ruanruan had no idea what the implication of this was, anyway, it was all prepared by Lin Yuzhen and the others.

Behind the two of them were people carrying water, rice, oil, and bags of peanuts or something else in red plastic bags.

These things are in red plastic bags, and we will put one in each room when we go in.

As the auspicious time arrived, Zhang Fugui lit firecrackers more than ten meters away. Uncle Zhang Ruanruan opened the door, and Zhang Jianguo and Lin Yuzhen took the lead and walked in.

At the door, there was the main circuit switch for the entire building. My uncle pushed the switch, and with a click, all the lights in the building lit up instantly.

For Zhang Ruanruan, the lights in a new house cannot be turned off for three days, and they have to be on even when sleeping at night.

Of course, people nowadays are not so particular. They still secretly close it when they go to bed and open it again in the morning.

The large army entered the new house.

Zhang Jianguo and Lin Yuzhen carried the new pot into the kitchen, and the others performed their duties, climbing the stairs and placing a red plastic bag in every room on each floor.

Feng Nuannuan and the others also came to help. As young people, they climbed to the fifth and sixth floors with Zhang Ruanruan, leaving the lower floors to their aunt and the others.

In this way, the ceremony of moving into a new house is completed. Next, you can eat, drink and have fun.

"Play mahjong, play mahjong."

Feng Nuannuan rubbed his hands excitedly.

The sixth floor of this building is an entertainment room that Zhang Ruanruan built for them.

There are only two guest rooms. The other rooms are a karaoke room with excellent sound insulation, two very comfortable mahjong rooms, and a billiard room.

Zhang Ruanruan has already bought the melon seeds and fruit snacks, so everyone can just eat as much as they want.

In this way, we played until noon, when the first wave of dinner began.

38 tables.

These 38 tables are basically occupied by villagers from Qingping Village.

There are still 50 tables in the evening, and there will be more friends and relatives.

Of course, for a good relationship like Feng Nuannuan, they would definitely eat from morning to night.

Eat and eat.

Eat and eat.

night.

Keep eating.

Eat and eat.

The show didn't end until eight o'clock in the evening.

"Come and play next time."

"Drink tea at your leisure."

"We'll have dinner some other time."

Zhang Ruanruan waved mechanically. She didn't recognize most of the relatives who greeted her.

She did get to know her grandmother's relatives, but had no desire to talk to them.

Zhang Ruanruan was not surprised by their arrival. After all, they were her mother's blood relatives and it was impossible for her to really cut off contact with them. However, Zhang Ruanruan ignored them. Unless there was some big happy event, they would not have any contact with each other at other times.

After seeing off the guests, Feng Nuannuan and others were about to go back.

Today is the day they move into their new home. Even if there is a guest room, they cannot stay overnight. They can only do so after three days.

"Bye-Bye."

Zhang Ruanruan waved goodbye.

Jiang Yuanhang left with Feng Nuannuan, and Ren Qian left with Wang Xinru.

……

Finally, I can have some peace and quiet.

Zhang Ruanruan returned to the house.

At this moment, the floor of the house is covered with footprints, fruit peels, melon seed shells, and plastic packaging of candy.

It can be said to be extremely dirty.

But Zhang Ruanruan was not worried at all that Lin Yuzhen would order her to sweep the floor at this time.

Because according to the local custom, one can only sweep the floor in a new house on the third morning after moving into it. If one sweeps the floor in advance, one will sweep away the wealth and will not be able to make money in the future.

So, even though the ground was dirty, Lin Yuzhen had no choice but to endure it.

Zhang Ruanruan returned to her room with a smile.

Long live traditional customs.

Zhang Ruanruan has reason to suspect that the person who established this custom just didn't want to sweep the floor.

After entertaining guests all day, it would be really tiring to sweep the floor at night.

So, everyone needs an excuse to be lazy.

You can only sweep the floor after the third day, otherwise you will not make money.

That makes sense.

There is only one day between the first day and the third day, which is not a long time, so the garbage on the ground will not start to stink.

You can take a day off in between, which is just enough to eliminate the fatigue from entertaining guests on the first day.

If you sweep the floor on the third day, you will feel very comfortable.

In fact, there is no need to rush to sweep the floor, because guests are not allowed to stay overnight for the first three days, and your house will not be seen as dirty and messy by outsiders.

At this moment, the traditional custom is completed.

This is not feudal superstition at all.

This is clearly the way of the world.

Zhang Ruanruan realized.
