Chapter 225 Fire Cake!
In the morning, a bamboo basket was filled with fire cakes, and Yuefu saw that it was almost done, so she baked two pieces of finger cakes with the remaining noodles and steamed red dates steamed buns.

At noon, Yunhe took some fire cakes and set up an incense burner in the east of the kitchen. The sesame cakes were neatly placed. After lighting the incense and praying three times, he put the incense into the incense burner.

I made vegetable soup for lunch, made a pot of pork, cabbage, vermicelli, tofu, and the first bowl was of course for the Stove Lord.

Everyone returned to their bowls for lunch, except for Yuefu, it was the first time for them to eat like this, eating vegetable soup with sesame seed cakes, the taste was not to mention delicious.

In the afternoon, Yuefu and Li Yan washed their clothes, and this busy work was over in a day.

The 24th of the twelfth lunar month is a traditional house-sweeping day. The purpose is to sweep away the bad luck of the year. Of course, the two men in the family did this.

The two men disturbed everything outside the house, even the outside of the gate. Yuefu looked at the emptiness outside the gate, thinking that after the Chinese New Year, she would buy some trees and plant them, preferably pine trees.

After making up her mind, Yuefu directly explained her thoughts to Yun Heqing, and Yun Heqing nodded and kept it in her heart.

Li Yan took out all the quilts in the house to dry in the sun. It was strange to say that the weather was so good during the Chinese New Year, and people were also happy, which indicated that the weather in the coming year would be good.

Every household in the village is busy with the things used for the New Year. The rich families are better off, while the poor families can only eat some coarse grains.

There are a group of women sitting under a big tree in the village, and there are a few bachelors beside them. A group of people are chatting about their daily life, "Hey...you guys, tell me what the old man of the Yun family thinks?"

"How else can I think about it? It's too late to regret it now."

"Yeah, who told him to do it so badly back then, and now he lives comfortably in a good family."

"Why not, at the market on the 22nd, I saw him buying a lot of things, such as chicken, duck, fish, and pork, all of which were so big." The woman gestured to the size of the pork after she finished speaking.

Everyone was amazed at the size of her gestures, "So many? If it was in our house, we wouldn't be able to eat it for a few months?"

"Come on! I still have to eat it for a few months, I haven't waited for you to eat it for a few months. The meat is smelly." The man on the side was talking, about 24 five years old, named Wang Mazi, who was considered an old man in ancient times, Because his surname is Wang and he has a pockmarked face, everyone calls him pockmarked Wang.

"Then I am willing too. Such a piece of pork makes me greedy. How dare you say that you, Wang Mazi, are not greedy?" The woman refused to let go.

"Of course I'm greedy. It's not my own. Is it useful to be greedy?" Wang Mazi was speechless.

"Hey, let me tell you, they bought more than that, and the carriage couldn't fit it."

"Isn't what you said too exaggerated? How much will it cost?" A group of people looked in disbelief.

"I swear, what I said is true." Seeing that the others didn't believe what she said, the woman quickly raised her right hand as if swearing.

"I believe in you. Do you still remember the time when the house of the fourth family of Yun was built and the whole village was invited to dinner? There were so many chickens, ducks and fish, and I can still think of the scene at that time."

"That's true. It seems that Yun Heqing has really made a fortune. I heard that his wife still has [-] acres of land, so she will have no worries about food and drink for the rest of her life." Everyone was full of gossip, discussing about the fourth wife of the Yun family.
