Supreme peasant girl to turn over

Chapter 664
Today is the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month. According to the customs of the past, the government will start to hold sacrifices to the stoves, and tomorrow the common people will worship the stoves.

It is believed that the Stove Lord will bring happiness to the family if he speaks a few words in front of the Jade Emperor, which will ensure the safety of the family in the coming year.Therefore, every year "officials, people, four boats and five", every household will sacrifice to the Kitchen God, asking him to say more good and auspicious words after he goes to heaven.

This ritual of sending the Kitchen God is called "Sending the Kitchen God" or "Resigning from the Kitchen God".On New Year's Eve, the "Stove God" will be brought back again.On the night of the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, the portraits or photos of the Stove Lord and ancestors should be hung on the wall, and wine and tributes should be prepared, and the worship of the tribe should be accepted until the New Year's Eve.However, when sacrificing the stove, the Kanto sugar should be melted and spread on the mouth of the Stove Lord, and the meaning of this Kanto sugar is to sweeten the Stove Lord's mouth so that the Stove Lord will not speak bad words.

After the stove sacrifice, it is time to officially start preparing for the New Year.Li Yun loves to worry about these things the most, so she bought a lot of New Year's goods when she came and went. Although Yang Fengxian looked not so grand, she was very down-to-earth.

All kinds of vegetables and fruits, because of the popularity of greenhouses, appear more and more on the dining table in winter. It is precisely because of this that the belief value of Yang Fengxian's space is also increasing.And the sausages that are most often filled in the twelfth lunar month, pickled bacon, chicken, and fish, are hung on the eaves of the glazed tiles in strings, complementing the colorful glazed tiles, which seems to have an unusual harmony.

And when it comes to the 24th of the twelfth lunar month, every household will carry out a big cleaning, which is the so-called "sweeping dust". The folk proverb says "Dust the dust and sweep the house on the 24th of the twelfth lunar month".After the stove sacrifice, the official preparations for the New Year began.

It is a traditional custom to sweep the dust before the Spring Festival.On the dust-sweeping day, the whole family will work together to clean the house and courtyard, scrub pots and bowls, remove and wash bedding, and welcome the New Year cleanly.In fact, people use the homophony of "dust" and "chen" to express their desire to get rid of the old and the old.

But in Yang Fengxian's Princess Jiahui's mansion, she naturally didn't need to do it herself, and her mansion is too huge, if she did it herself, she might be exhausted, so the people below became extremely busy, out of the routine Sweeping, and taking advantage of the sunny afternoon to take out all the things in the warehouse before, to dry them in the sun, to get rid of bad luck.

In the past few days, basically no one came to visit, not even Princess Duanning and Princess Furong who often came to visit. Although they are all noble families, they still have to be busy with things that should be busy. After all, this can be regarded as It's the most important day of the year.

On the 25th of the twelfth lunar month, it is the day when the Jade Emperor descends from the legend to investigate the good and evil in the world and determine the good and bad fortunes of the coming year.On this day, you should be cautious in your daily life and speech, and strive for good performance in order to win the favor of the Jade Emperor and bring blessings for the coming year.

To be honest, although Yang Fengxian didn't believe in ghosts and gods before, since she got the space and got acquainted with Taoist Fuyun, she has an attitude of preferring to believe in such things, so such things, She did it respectfully, without any distractions.

As a practitioner, Pei Xiaoyao is naturally more pious, and farmers like Yang Jiaxiao have always depended on the sky for their food, so they have only a little more respect for the gods and Buddhas of heaven and earth.

And the 26th of the twelfth lunar month was the time Yang Fengxian looked forward to the most when she was a child, because in the custom of this day, "26th of the twelfth lunar month, kill the pig and cut the meat" or "26, cut the head of the knife", which means that this day is mainly to prepare meat for the New Year. .

Even in modern times, Yang Fengxian's family was very poor when she was a child, and she just lived with her grandmother. At that time, she was able to eat meat freely, and it was really only during the Chinese New Year.

Up to now, Yang Fengxian still misses it very much. At that time, grandma used the fat meat she bought to squeeze oil and fried cabbage with oil residue. Every time she ate it, it was very delicious. Even the current delicacies of mountains and seas, bird’s nest and shark’s fin, she couldn’t eat that. The smell of fat residue at that time.

But now that she no longer has to worry about eating and drinking, Li Yun bought a lot of meat, thinking that if she couldn't finish it when the time came, she could share it with the people below and bring some for her family.

Yang Fengxian has always been lenient towards these loyal people.

On the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month, one needs to concentrate on bathing and washing to get rid of one year's bad luck and prepare for the new year in the coming year. There is a saying in Beijing that "27 washes away guilt, 28 washes sloppy".Bathing on the 26th of the twelfth lunar month is "washing Fulu".

So during the Chinese New Year, Yang Fengxian was not busy with other things. These customs alone were enough to torment people, but Yang Fengxian didn't think there was anything wrong, because in such a fast-paced modern life, these things that represent a strong sense of the New Year It has been abandoned a long time ago, but it is precisely because of these customs that the New Year will become interesting.

And anyway, she has so many people who can help her, so she has nothing to worry about, and Li Yun has probably been worrying about her life in this life, thinking about everything, and Yang Fengxian now only needs to take care of herself and Yoyo. Even Pei Xiaoyao had Su Xi to take care of his physical condition, and Wan Su even sent many people to take care of him.

And on the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, it is "28th of the twelfth lunar month, make cakes and steamed buns with decals" or "28, make noodles".The so-called decals refer to posting New Year pictures, Spring Festival couplets, window grilles and various things posted during the Spring Festival.

On this day, Gu Qingyan gave New Year pictures and window grilles from the imperial court to all important ministers to show the greatness of the emperor's favor, including Yang Fengxian's family, of course, and Pei Xiaoyao's handwriting is considered to be a masterpiece in the world, so Yang Fengxian decided to have couplets at home. The characters are all written by Pei Xiaoyao.

Pei Xiaoyao said with a wry smile: "Young lady is really a loving husband. You know how much you have to write in this huge princess mansion! You really are not afraid that I will be tired."

Yang Fengxian smiled flatteringly and said, "Oh my, I won't let you write so much, at most it's just a few main yards."

Pei Xiaoyao squinted at her: "How many courtyards are there?"

Yang Fengxian counted with his fingers: "How many yards are there? Our main yard, parents' yard, elder brother's yard, eldest sister's yard, and younger brother's yard. Here, there are only a few in total! Your handwriting is the best. After reading it, I asked you to write it, okay, my lord."

Pei Xiaoyao couldn't bear Yang Fengxian's coquettish behavior the most. Once Yang Fengxian acted like a coquettish, he would want to compromise, so he could only raise his hands in a gesture of surrender: "Okay, okay, I'll write, can I write?"

Only then did Yang Fengxian smile brightly: "I know that my husband treats me the best. Xianggong writes couplets here, and I will accompany you by the side, cutting window grilles and so on, isn't it pretty good."
