Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

Chapter 433 Exaggerated

How is that possible? That's exaggerated. He was even snoring, but he shouldn't have lied to her. It must have become second nature. When she heard that she felt like she was freezing to death while being held in his arms, she subconsciously took action.

Observing Gu Wenxuan's expression again, he didn't seem to be worried. Zhou Banxia thought about it and felt that this should be the case, otherwise how would he have the time to joke around.

At 6:30 in the morning, at 2:15 am, the sun came out.

Without saying anything more, Zhou Banxia took Gu Wenxuan out first.

There was no sun and it was raining.

No matter how light the rain is, it is still a rainy day.

Gu Wenxuan was so happy. God let him rest for half a day. Then he could go back and tidy up the 200 square meters of the backyard and prepare enough fruits and vegetables for his wife and children.

There are too few varieties of fruits nowadays, and even fewer fruits suitable for consumption during pregnancy. Once the season is over, the fresh fruits that can be stockpiled will have wilted, so it is better to be self-reliant.

After breakfast, Gu Wenxuan took the excuse of accompanying his wife to the workshop to sort out accounts and collect receipts, and then he took his book box and went to the small courtyard in the inner workshop and left.

The land where fruits and vegetables were harvested early in the morning but had not yet been sown was tidied up, and the potted seeds in stock were found to start raising seedlings and replanting.

Sprinkle flower seeds on the corners and edges, trim the transplanted wild fruit trees that can be grafted, and then make some jam with boiling water.

Zhou Banxia "saw" Gu Wenxuan busying around in the hall. For the entire morning, no matter when he "glanced" inside, he did not stop.

Are children so important?

Gu Wenxuan proved with practical actions that his wife is important, and the wife who is pregnant with his child is even more important.

In the past, when I had my own tofu shop that could deliver soy milk every morning, I also carefully selected the soybeans and placed them in a location next to the soy milk machine where I could easily get them.

Now he has prepared dried seafood for calcium supplementation and planted fruits and vegetables. He has not stopped there. In addition to entrusting the Ma family to reserve lambs, he also ordered a few dairy sheep.

In a blink of an eye, it is the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15th.

Qingming Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival and Winter Solstice are also important festivals, not much different from New Year's Eve. On this day, people not only worship the moon, but also worship their ancestors.

The ancestor worship ceremony was not neglected even though the renovation of the ancestral hall had not been completed. Work and cleaning had been stopped two days in advance, and the ceremony was still grand and solemn.

In the morning, whether it was the Gu family or the Zhou family, after breakfast, the men, led by the heads of each family, went out to the ancestral hall to worship their ancestors as usual.

In August, the autumn heat is still very strong, and it is slightly cool in the early morning and evening. It is almost noon when the whole set of ancestor worship rituals are completed.

The men worshipped their ancestors and prayed for blessings in the ancestral hall, while the women were busy giving fruits or bread to each other in the whole village.

The cakes can be homemade or made in shops specially for the Mid-Autumn Festival in August. The cakes come in different sizes, but they must be round, so they are collectively called moon cakes.

The sun was still shining brightly at noon, and it was so hot that people didn't want to move. The activity of giving away fruits or bread ended before the men returned home.

Although the Gu family sent out a lot of fruits and mooncakes in the morning, they received even more, with the pomegranates and red dates that ripened during the festival accounting for a large part of them.

Gu Erzhu and his two sons who had just entered the house were so happy that they said in unison: "This is great! Giving each other any other fruits and mooncakes is not as good as these two."

After standing for a whole morning and having a sumptuous lunch specially prepared for the festival, Gu Erzhu did not come for tea and chat after the meal. He immediately announced that everyone should return to their rooms.

Not to mention that he had to worship the moon at night, one of his two daughters-in-law was not yet three months pregnant, and the other was about to give birth, so he couldn't sit still. Liu also waved to the two daughters-in-law and signaled them to go back to their rooms to rest. Everything they needed for the night was ready. As for the fruit and noodle cakes they received?

She gave the order, and Gu Dahua's family and Yu Cai's family had their own arrangements to make, so there was really no need for them to accompany her. After a while, she would go back to her room and lie down.

Ma Shan and Zhou Banxia, ​​who were ordered by Liu to stay at home and rest this morning, smiled at each other, accepted the kindness of their mother-in-law and father-in-law, and went back to their rooms.

"Today's ancestor worship seems to be taking a long time. Are you exhausted?"

After watching Gu Erlang helping Ma Shan, who was only about ten days away from due date, safely return to the east wing, Zhou Banxia finally got the chance to ask.

"No, standing is definitely easier than doing horse stance." Gu Wenxuan motioned her to pay attention to the steps ahead, "The main reason is that the ancestral hall has not been completed yet.

We didn’t burn the paper money in the original place, and we had to help move it after it was burned. We also chatted after the ceremony, which made it seem like it took longer than usual.”

Zhou Banxia wanted to ask what happened when the three of them, father and son, carrying a small long lock, met Old Man Gu and his grandchildren in the ancestral hall.

After a moment's hesitation, I thought it would be better not to mention such a great festival. Who knows if the grandparents and grandchildren will talk about something unpleasant...

"By the way, when we exchanged fruits and mooncakes this morning, did the eldest house give any gifts in return? At first, my mother and eldest sister-in-law mentioned several families but didn't mention the eldest house.

Did our mother go to the main room with Baoya? Did Baoya say anything? Did the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law not cause trouble for our mother this time? "

"Probably not." Zhou Banxia had naturally paid attention to the expressions of her mother-in-law and sister-in-law before, "But it would be easy for mother and Baoya to hide it from me and my sister-in-law.

At that time, when mother and Baoya went out, they not only visited the eldest son's family, but also went to several houses nearby at the entrance of the village. Even the return gifts were carried by Aunt Cai and others.

As for the eldest family, if they said or did anything to make our mother feel uncomfortable, I'm afraid that once the next family leaves, everyone will just disperse with laughter and conversation.

There is one thing. My mother mentioned to me and my eldest sister-in-law that my third cousin seemed to have come out after completing her confinement period. She also asked me and my eldest sister-in-law why we didn't go with her.

My mother said that my eldest sister-in-law was about to give birth, so it would be bad for her to go out and cause trouble to others. As for me, my mother said that she deliberately didn't mention it, because who knows what my eldest aunt would mutter about.

And the eldest cousin's wife is also at home today. When our mother went there, she was in the fourth cousin's wife's room. Baoya said that the two of them are quite close. "

"That means the matter of whose name the eldest son's shop will be owned by has finally been decided. In the ancestral hall this morning, Silang was following Dalang around."

"What about Gu San?"

Gu Sanlang?
Gu Wenxuan laughed, stepped into the small hall first, and took Zhou Banxia's hand. After she stepped over the threshold, he smiled and said, "It's still the same as before."

"Where's the uncle?"

"What a busy man."

Zhou Banxia couldn't help but chuckle. To be honest, a smart person is a smart person. Among her father-in-law's four brothers, the fourth brother, Gu, is the smartest.

Her father-in-law told him that he could make more money by selling furs, but he just shook his head and refused to agree. He picked out the vermicelli workshop at first sight.

I'm so busy now that I don't even have time to take care of the old man. If it weren't for the holiday today, I would definitely be busy preparing for the vermicelli workshop.

"The old man has been very quiet this time. He hasn't come to our house to say anything for some time. I was worried that he would come to you this morning to say something in public while everyone was gathered together."
