Liangyue Farm Gate

Chapter 179 Golden Elixir Book
The second day was New Year's Eve, Guan Wen and Li Xin were going back to Lotus Village.After marrying and following her husband, Li Xin always has to go back with Guan Wen.

After sitting in the old house for a long time, Li Xin and Guan Wen left after lunch.

When Mrs. Gu came to see them off, Li Xin patted Da Jiang's thin shoulder and said, "It's time for Da Jiang to grow up, and he will be filial to your mother in the future."

Da Jiang was only ten years old, so he became more sensible after this incident. He called his cousin in a hoarse voice. Li Xin took pity on him, so he could only swallow the sigh in his mouth, and said a few words to Mrs. Gu. When the New Year comes again, I will go back to Lotus Village with Guan Wen.

Arriving at the Guan family around noon, Axiu and Amei immediately greeted them.

Li Xin looked a little haggard, with scratches on his face, Axiu suddenly exclaimed and asked what was wrong.

Guan Wen explained lightly, and didn't say much else.After all, this is also a matter of Uncle Li Xin's family, and it is not good to spread it too far.

Axiu is very capable now, and she keeps everything in the house in order.A-mei can now be alone in the kitchen, and the two sisters cooperate tacitly. The New Year's Eve dinner is delicious, and Li Xin doesn't need to do it.

Hu Yueying felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, always feeling as if she was being left aside.A-mei is better, talking to her kindly, and chatting with her with some interest, but the fifth sister-in-law seems to be a person who doesn't get close to her, and she doesn't talk much to her. That is being polite.

As soon as the sister-in-law came back, Axiu gathered around to ask questions. She was also a sister-in-law, why did Axiu treat her sister-in-law differently?
She was not happy in her heart, but she still didn't show it on the surface. The sisters-in-law and aunts brought the food to the table, and at the old moment, they began to set the bowls and chopsticks, put incense and invite the ancestors to go home for dinner, and shouted to the ancestors while setting the chopsticks. name.

Because it was a big festival, the women also ate in the main room, and another table was set up.When the food on this table was ready, the old juncture over there began to invite the ancestors back again.

Only then did he greet and ask to have dinner together.

The man was eating happily at the table, and Guan Ming was bragging about how Guan Zhicheng won the favor of Mr. Liu, how he became a scholar, and how easy it is to get a job, and the rest of the Guan family men just listened and echoed, He also talked about the results of the year, how much grain he had harvested, how fat the pigs were, and so on.

Li Xin buried her head in picking vegetables to eat, a little absent-minded.

Axiu and Amei also knew that she would not be in a good mood, after all her relatives were dead, even if she smiled it would be a forced smile, so they all remained silent.On the contrary, it made Hu Yueying on the side uncomfortable.Except for Li Xin occasionally bringing food to Yang'er, there was hardly any movement at the table of four women.

After eating, we must keep the New Year's Eve.Guan Ming and Guan Zhicheng started muttering again, and Guan Quan and Guan Wu were also chatting over there, and they were talking with them at the old juncture, probably talking about the materials of the house, Hu Yueying pulled Amei , A Xiu teased Yang Er.

Guan Wen and Li Xin were sitting side by side at the entrance of the main room, the sky was pitch black, and occasionally they heard the sound of a dog barking, and the wind rustling the leaves.

Li Xin leaned on Guan Wen's arm and said, "I feel very sad when I look at Mrs. Datang. If you were like Mr. Datang and let go, wouldn't I end up like Mrs. Datang?"

"You think too much, am I fine?" Guan Wen put his arms around her shoulder and said, "Brother Datang died unjustly. Didn't he say that he was bleeding from his seven orifices and was killed? I was just an accident." , isn’t it all right now?”

Li Xin moved his mouth, and said, "Brother Hall, he had blood coming out of his brain and it was all stuck in his brain, so the overflow from the corner of his mouth was just the right timing."

Guan Wen was startled, and Li Xin hurriedly grabbed him and said, "Everyone thinks he died unjustly, so let's just treat him as unjustly. Three kids will be better off."

Guan Wen understood, nodded, but still sighed and said: "Your hall brother also died too young, only 28-[-], and the threshold of standing at [-] has not yet passed."

"Who said no..." Li Xin sighed, and said to Guan Wen: "You drink less alcohol in the future, and don't drink if you can, don't do too tiring work, and don't have any mental burden. Our family now I have a good life, working so hard and doing so many things.”

Li Xin sighed: "I can understand now that no matter how much money you earn, you have to have that kind of life. Look at my first cousin, just because he loves to drink will kill him. If he doesn't drink much , don’t be so burdened, and it won’t be the result like today. You are the eldest son, just like the big cousin, and you have no mother, so I’m afraid it will be more burdensome.”

After saying that, Li Xin turned serious, straightened her face and said to Guan Wen, "You have to take good care of yourself and take care of your body. Ah Wen, I don't want to be a widow."

Guan Wen knew that she was afraid, so he nodded solemnly and said, "I know."

Only then did Li Xin let out a sigh of relief, and snuggled into Guan Wen's arms again, only after listening to his strong heartbeat did he feel at ease.

In the middle of the night, firecrackers were set off in the village, and Guan Ming also had firecrackers lit. The crackling sound broke the tranquility of the night.

After watching until dawn, Li Xin couldn't stand it any longer, and little by little, Yang'er went back to the new house to catch up on sleep.

Li Xin didn't know how much Guan Ming got for selling a big fat pig, but she told Guan Wen to ask his father for the money, and Guan Wen agreed.

Li Xin didn't get up until mid-afternoon. The Guan family was going back to Lotus Village on the second day of the first lunar month, and Li Xin had to wait until after the second day of the first lunar month before going to Lijia Village.

In the second year of junior high, the Zhao family all came. Zhao Changsheng felt ashamed when he saw Yang'er, gouged out his eyes at Li Xin, and whispered, "Big cousin, I've completely lost face in front of Yang'er."

Zhao Changsheng still remembered Li Xin slandering him for peeing his pants to coax Yang'er, but Yang'er still liked him very much, and when he saw him coming, his eyes lit up and he called his second cousin, and he got tired of him.

Zhao Changsheng also likes to play with Yang'er, and after less than a quarter of an hour, he couldn't hold back his face and went to play with Yang'er. He heard Yang'er tell him about the chicken at home, Erhei, and the aunt's house. It is warm and comfortable inside, and the bamboo behind Zuzu...

Guan Wen and Guan Wu helped Zhao Changhui move Zhao Guangming and his reclining chair in. Li Xin welcomed Guan Shi into the house, and Guan Shi saw her face and asked what was going on.

Hearing Li Xin said that her eldest cousin was gone, Guan also comforted her a few words, and asked how the funeral was going.

"It's in progress, my cousins ​​have all gone back, so I have to go back." Li Xin said.

Guan Wen said on the side: "I will wait for you guys to come today, and we will have to rush back tomorrow, the first seven days of the third year."

Guan sighed, and said: "It's really heartbreaking to encounter this incident during the Chinese New Year." Then he asked Li Xin: "Your eldest cousin is not very old, is he?"

"28 nine." Li Xin replied.

"You're still so young..." Guan sighed.

Theoretically, Guan Shi came back to pay New Year's greetings to her father, and a junior like Guan Wen had to go to Zhao's house to pay New Year's greetings to Guan Shi.But this year's situation is special, and the Guan family didn't stick to that reason, and gave the New Year's money that should be given to Yang Er at the Guan family.

Li Xin put away the money, Guan called Axiu to talk again, Hu Yueying interjected from time to time, and the atmosphere was quite lively.

Li Xin didn't want to talk much, Er Hei turned around in front of her, and she didn't have the mood to tease her, she just sat there blankly and lost her mind.

In the third year of junior high, Li Xin and Guan Wen took Yang'er to Lijia Village again.

Guan Ming was not very happy, but he also knew that there was nothing he could do about it, so he only groaned a few words, but didn't say much.

On the first seven nights, all the close relatives of the Li family called.Li Xin and Guan Wen were sitting in a corner, Yang'er was obediently nestling in Li Xin's arms, her small body trembling a little.

The Taoist chanting made Li Xin's ears hurt, and the sound of beating the gong was quite strange. Occasionally, he could hear a few words, as if he was reciting Li Jin's name and Da Jiang's name.

The golden alchemy book made by the Taoist priests was also drawn up, a thin booklet that was taller and narrower. After reading it, Li Houbo and Zhu Shi gave it to Li Houzhong.

Li Houzhong turned over and frowned slightly.Mrs. Liu took it and glanced at it and said, "We are illiterate, what are you doing here?"

"I always know how to write the names of a few children." Li Houzhong pointed and said: "I also saw the names of Zhuwazi and Baowazi, and Chun'er's is there, but I didn't see Miss Xin."

Mrs. Liu was taken aback, then searched twice, but she couldn't find it.

Immediately Liu called the Taoist priest.

The Taoist priest's surname is Wang, and he is about the same age as Li Houbo. The few Taoist priests who are beating, beating, and chanting scriptures are all disciples of his own family. They have been doing this business in Lijia Village for some years, so they are naturally famous.

Seeing that Mrs. Liu came to ask with the golden alchemy book, Daoist Wang pinched his chin with only a few shallow beards, stroked the beards and said: "This is the name given by the third sibling of the Li family, and she remembers everything she said. It's on the top, she didn't say it, so I don't know."

Mrs. Liu became furious immediately, turned her head and shouted: "The third family, come here!"

Mrs. Jin was chatting with a person in charge sent by the father of the bum of the Yang family. Hearing Liu's calling her a bit puzzled, she bowed her waist and told the manager to wait a while before rushing over, asking impatiently: "What's the matter?" Son, second sister-in-law?"

The Liu family and the Jin family have been at loggerheads for the past few days, one is because the incident between Li Xin and the Jin family has caused the Liu family to be bitter about the Jin family, and the other is that on the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, the Jin family pushed Li Xin into the scuffle. The circle caused Li Xin to be scratched by Mei Xiaoxia, which made Liu's resentment even more.At that time, Liu didn't have an attack, but in the past few days, he gave Jin several times.If it hadn't been for Li Jin's funeral, there was no guarantee that Mrs. Liu would have a falling out with Mrs. Jin.

Hearing her tone, Mrs. Liu sneered, slammed the golden alchemy book on the table next to her, pointed at the table and said, "Wang Taoist said that you told him about our Li family. Why didn't you mention Xiner?"

Mrs. Jin snorted, but straightened her expression and said, "Second sister-in-law, don't blame me for speaking harshly. Your Xiner stayed in that kind of place, and it was written that he saw blood. The future of reincarnation."

Liu Shi suddenly became angry.

The golden alchemy book was ready, and on the day of the burial, the Taoist priest caught a rooster with a big crown and stained it with the blood of the rooster's comb and the fluff of the rooster.

The meaning of Jin's words is that she is for Li Jin's good, and she is afraid that writing Li Xin's name will affect Li Jin's reincarnation.

The two sisters-in-law were talking when they saw Mrs. Zhu being supported by Mrs. Gu.

Mrs. Zhu came to ask Taoist Wang what else he needed. Seeing Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Jin staring at each other, she felt a little irritable and asked feebly, "Second sibling, third sibling, what are you two doing?"

Mrs. Jin immediately took Mrs. Zhu's hand, smoothed things out, and finally said to Mrs. Liu in an understanding way: "Second sister-in-law, this is for the sake of Jinwazi. You are the second aunt. I also hope that he will have a good pregnancy in the future, right?"

Mrs. Zhu also nodded, and said, "Second brother and sister, I have wronged your son Xin."

Liu was so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven, and he wanted to use a shoehorn to slap Jin in the face with anger.

Mrs. Gu paused for a moment, then said softly: "But Third Aunt, the names of the younger sisters are all written on it, but if sister Xin's name is not written, it will be hard to justify."

Mrs. Jin persuaded Mrs. Gu earnestly: "Jinwazi's family, you have to think about the future of being the head of the family for you... You can't be careless!"

Liu sneered: "If you don't treat my daughter as a niece, she won't guard your spirit after you die."

Mrs. Jin was furious immediately, and Mrs. Liu said to Mrs. Zhu without waiting for her to speak: "Sister-in-law, although our two families have not been close these years, and you and I have never gotten along very well, we can still get along in terms of face. ,dont you agree?"

Mrs. Zhu nodded of course, and this sister-in-law had put a lot of thought into helping her son die.

"As a mother, I understand your feelings, and you should also understand my feelings. The names of the other girls in the family are written on it. My Xiner is also your Jinwazi's cousin. Let her know that she is her first cousin. It's gone, she rushed back immediately, do you recognize this friendship?"

Of course Mrs. Zhu would admit it, and she had also heard from her eldest daughter-in-law that this nephew gave her a tael of funeral money—even Li Jin, his three uncles and three aunts only gave her three hundred coins.

Seeing her nodding, Mrs. Liu said: "Everyone knows that you are the head of the family, I am the head of the family, and the third brother and the third family are three brothers who are close relatives. Your two daughters, one in my family, and one in the third brother's family, everyone can count them clearly. The name of my family Xiner is left out in this Jindan book, if it is said, what will others think?"

Jin immediately said, "That's because..."

"Shut your mouth!" Mrs. Liu immediately raised her voice: "I am talking to my sister-in-law, do you have a role to interrupt! You are so busy, I don't know how busy you are with other things, just talk to Yang The housekeeper asks about the health and caresses, gossips, and cares about your own face! The elder sister-in-law is in charge of the Jindan book, and you are a fart! You are so old that you don’t feel ashamed. My mother still thinks for you I'm blushing!"

Daoist Wang stood aside in embarrassment, and retreated embarrassingly.

Mrs. Liu scolded Mrs. Jin in this paragraph with a high voice, and everyone around heard it, just when the last sentence "I blush for you" came out.After the Taoist priest had finished reciting a passage, when the surroundings suddenly became quiet, Liu's words became even louder.

Li Xinwen looked over at the prestige, and saw her mother staring at Jin with bulging eyes like a fighting cock, and felt a "thump" in her heart——

It's bad, these two tempers are so matched, can this mourning hall be quiet?
