Pastoral Valley Fragrance

Chapter 23 Don't come after the third wash?
Gu Yu's younger brother was born. Although the people there didn't come over, Li Dequan still went there, saying that he asked old man Li to give him a name. For spring equinox or Qingming, Gu Yu rubbed Li Dequan with the intention of picking a summer solstice, and she thought this would sound better.

Li Dequan was a little embarrassed at the time, "What if your grandfather said that the summer solstice is still far away?"

Jing Zhe interrupted and said: "Father, although the summer solstice has not arrived, it is not limited to this. Besides, even though it is named by grandpa, you can also say it in the past. You can't call it Xiaoxue when you were born in Xiaoxue's time. That is The name of the little girl, why don't you take me there."

The Jiang family on the side couldn't see it anymore, "Brother Dequan, you have such a slow temper. Since there are older brothers and sisters here, there is nothing wrong with being called Xia Zhi. I think we should call it this name, and the people over there will pay you back once." I haven’t even been here before, you have to go over and say, tomorrow I’ll wash three, and I’ll come here no matter what!”

Ever since Xia Zhi was born, Jiang has been living with his second uncle, huddled in the same room with Xiao Man Gu Yu, saying that he is not at ease, and there is not much work at home, although Li Dequan is at home, but in case the child cries in the middle of the night Ah, what, where men can do these things, Xiao Man is still a girl, so she can't let her do it.

Just because of Jiang's presence, Gu Yu's and the others' minds have stabilized a lot. What should be done on weekdays? With Jiang's here, Chen Jiangsheng naturally comes to report every day. Otherwise, he really can't leave At that time, the Jiang family also took Chen Jiangsheng to eat here.But he secretly brought that thing from home to make up for it, and it was only a little more.

At the Li family's side, no one came over the next day, but after the eldest aunt went back, she came here again, bringing a basket of eggs and a bag of brown sugar, and talked with Wang for a long time.Gu Yu stayed by his side and generally heard a few meanings, it was nothing more than telling Wang not to have a quarrel with that side, and that he should come over from Japan, but the second aunt was still there, and he brought her all the gifts in return. I went back, I was too embarrassed to enter the door with my empty hand, so I came here now.

It was only then that Gu Yu realized that the whole family was so different. If it wasn't for the family, who would have known that the second aunt who married into the town with eyes on her forehead not only didn't bring a gift, but also depended on the family's support? .

In Jiang's hands, Wang did have the brown sugar eggs to eat. The pheasant caught by An Jinxuan during the birth that day was given to Wang as a birth gift. This also surprised Gu Yu. There is more than just the flesh and blood relationship between people. At this time, you will know who is good to you.

On the second day, the three baptisms of the summer solstice.

Almost everyone has arrived, Xiaoman has also boiled Puai water, Jiangshi has also prepared those lock weights, green tea leaves, apron cloth and so on, and the incense table for the delivery lady has also been set up.

Mrs. Li He and Mrs. Zhang were still missing. Li Dejiang went over to urge them, and came back with a dark face, muttering that they could not come because they had to get something for the fourth and the others to return home.Looking at Xia Zhi's red body, Gu Yu felt a little worthless for him, and thought, it's okay not to come, I don't know if something will happen or not.

The mistress of Xisan was a little unhappy, and muttered: "I've never seen Xisan, even grandma didn't come here, and she didn't pick it up from the wild! Besides, she is a big fat boy, the girl I gave birth to back then. That's why I'm so useless!" Turning around, he said to Wang: "I think this child is a lucky one, if he doesn't come, there will be times when they regret it, and we won't miss the time, sister, don't be sad, but we have to be tougher. "

After talking, all the people laughed a little, added water to the basin, threw some dates and chestnuts, and Jiang also threw in a whole string of money, and everyone added some, the midwife spoke auspicious words, her voice was very high-pitched .After the basin was filled, the midwife stirred it a few times with a mallet, and said: "Stir once, stir twice, stir three times, the elder brother leads the younger brother to run," and then put Xia Zhi into the basin, Xia Zhi let out a loud cry, and everyone On the contrary, he laughed, "This child, the sound of crying is unusual..."

After finishing the work, Chen Yongyu and Li Dequan made rice noodles for everyone, that is, washed three noodles, and there were rows of bowls on the big table. One scooped up the noodles with a spoon, and the other put them in marinade. Everyone went over and picked them up. eat.

After all the busy work, everyone went home, and the two men sat in the yard, chatting.

Gu Yu followed Xiaoman to wash the dishes not far away, and vaguely heard, raising seedlings and planting fields...carpentry work...bigger is better...

Gu Yu's hands were soaked in the water, the water was a bit cold, the days were harsh, and the bowl soaked in the wooden basin didn't even have any oily flowers, and he was a little dazed after washing, "Sister, why don't they come over after washing three times?" ?”

If Gu Yu said that on weekdays, Xiao Man would always tell her not to think about it, but now she was a little annoyed, "Who knows, it's usually not a big deal, and besides, it's our younger brother's big day, fourth uncle and fourth aunt Even if you want to go back home, you can clean up the first day, there is no need for her to worry about it, just don't take us seriously!"

Just as Gu Yu was about to say something, there were several ear-piercing voices from the yard over there, but he couldn't hear clearly, and Gu Yu was even a little annoyed: "Who knows what reincarnation they are, they've been making noise all day long, You see Liqiu not only teased Huahua, but also bumped into his mother, or the younger brother would be born in less than a month. It has been a few days, and I haven't seen them come to admit their mistakes. Except for the second uncle and the others, grandma I haven’t been here with that aunt, and we don’t have plague gods here!”

The two sisters complained while washing the dishes, but they didn't expect that the resentment would be multiplied. Speaking of the anger, Gu Yu threw the bowl in his hand and didn't care to wipe the water splashed on his face, "Sister, it's just that we don't have it now. They are only like this because of the money, I am afraid that we will implicate them, and when we have a lot of money in the future, they will definitely step on the threshold of our family."

After saying this, Gu Yu made up his mind and said: "Sister, I want to earn a lot of money and build a big tile house, then I won't let them in, hmph!"

Xiaoman was amused by Gu Yu, "You, let's talk about it when you are older, why bother so much."

After saying this, Xia Zhi in the house cried again, and the two sisters in the yard laughed when they heard the crying.

Xiaoman sighed, "Gu Yu, I thought you were going to learn how to cook. Aunt Jiang is here for the past few days. When she comes home, I think I will spend more time embroidering. I will take it to the town. It was sold, but luckily I brought a few pieces of material with me when I came here, and I said I would give it to them, but luckily I didn’t give it to them, so I cut it up and made it into a purse, or, you also learn to embroider? Then we will make money even faster.”

Gu Yu quickly shook her head, thinking to herself, how can I hold such a thin embroidery needle, and quickly said: "No, no, I'll do the housework. If it doesn't work, I still have a helper. I can't hold the needle and thread steadily."

Xiao Man smiled again, "If you can't hold the needle or pinch the thread, I'll see how you embroider dowry in the future!"

Gu Yu shook her head nonchalantly, "I don't care, it's just my sister's embroidering, and if it doesn't work, there's my mother." After she finished speaking, she snickered, "Oh, sister, you're worried about this, right? It wasn't at that time that you already found me a brother-in-law..."

Xiao Man blushed, picked up the water and sprinkled it over Gu Yu's side.

Gu Yu smiled and ran to Li Dequan's side: "Father, look at my sister, I helped wash the dishes and even splashed water on me."

Chen Yongyu also laughed: "Dequan, your room is really lively, no wonder my kid doesn't want to go home all day long."
