Chapter 71 The Way of Hospitality
People talked about her and praised her.

But something interesting happened to the mother-in-law. It turned out that she was dozing off with her grandson in her arms. The children put hair grass on their heads, all giggling, and carefully put it on for her, lest she wake up.

Walking past a ten-year-old child, yelling and scaring these children, the mother-in-law woke up in shock. Sitting down, she tends to doze off and stretch herself. The grandchildren are all giggling.

"What are you laughing at? Is there something on your face?"

The mother-in-law asked them, and wiped her face with her hands.It should be clean!Watching the grandkids.

Wanyi's eldest daughter Lingzi said quietly, "Hey! We won't tell her, keep it secret!"

Children are always naughty, so they draw something on their faces or insert some flowers and plants while the adults are dozing off. This is also a childhood fun, and every child has played like that when they were young.

The mother-in-law carried the sleeping child in a backpack, went to get a hoe, dug out the white hair roots, washed them clean, and gave them to the grandchildren to chew.

Ya Li also chewed, "Grandma, it's so sweet."

"It's delicious!" These children were very happy to eat. These are children's snacks, and they are very satisfied.

Everyone praised Yang Qingping, and Zhou Yi came to join her, "Daughter-in-law, they all said that you are good-looking, and it is my life's blessing to marry you. Don't you think so!"

Yang Qingping looked at him, and said in a bad tone, "Just be proud of yourself! Stay where it's cool."

When those people leave, they will be thrown out, disturbing her.

The more people work, the quicker it is. Today, the fourth aunt's family has finished planting the seedlings. They all washed their hands and feet, and they can have lunch.

Fire up the fish and treat them as a delicious dish. People here like to eat sticky rice, and they always bring sticky rice with them during busy farming seasons to endure hunger.

With salted duck eggs, it is a dish during the transplanting season.

The living customs here are not like Shangyao Village. She has never seen all kinds of dishes, and they seem to be pickles.

They mix grilled fish with pickles, add some spices, and eat sticky rice directly with their hands.

They brought self-brewed glutinous rice wine from home, and the aroma was the same as that night when she opened the wine jar. They had already drank two bowls of wine before they had eaten the meal.

Yang Qingping was full quickly, and found that her mother-in-law was wearing grass blades all over her head. These children must have done it, so help her get rid of it.

"No wonder they were laughing just now. They were dressing up the old woman." The old woman was not angry, but happy, with a kind face.

The brother-in-law and the others left the three of them to have dinner, but they stayed here for the night, and they wanted to leave, so they made dinner quickly, and then left after eating.

There are only [-] families here, a small village, and the living customs are very strange. People have lived together peacefully for generations, and they will come to help any family in trouble. The women here are happy and harmonious.There is no gossip like in their village.

They prepared dinner, and everyone in the village brought their own meals to share and entertain the distinguished guests. It turned out that there is a custom here, as long as there are guests, they all come to congratulate.

If someone builds a toilet, they all come to congratulate them, let alone build a house.

They all sat down, served their own meals on the table, and entertained the distinguished guests with their own homemade rice wine.

After a while, a group of teenage girls, all as beautiful as flowers, wearing new clothes, came over with wine bowls, sang songs, and walked towards Zhou Yi.

At this time, a group of children who were the same age as Yali came over with their own gifts. They wove a net bag with thread, and put dyed red-skinned salted duck eggs in it. This is the best gift for a friend.

The girl over there walked towards Yang Qingping singing again, and handed her the wine bowl.

Due to her physical condition, she couldn't drink, so she didn't pick it up. The girls sang one song after another to her. Finally, the mother-in-law told her that this is the way of hospitality here, and she must catch the bowl of wine.

She told her mother-in-law about her health and that she could not drink. Her mother-in-law went to tell the girls, and finally they went to the well to fetch water and gave her two bowls of well water to drink.

When guests come here, they go to draw cool well water for them to drink. This is the way to entertain distinguished guests.

If you come, they will dig a well and come over for you to drink immediately, steam sticky rice (glutinous rice) and serve their own glutinous rice wine, which is their hospitality.

She watched the people drinking here, clinked glasses and cheered loudly, and when they had to do it, they would feed each other with food.

Seeing a table of people, I drink a bowl of wine, you eat a bowl of meat, isn't that enough?When others come to toast, you will be fined if you don’t drink. If I drink and you eat meat, you can leave.

How can you go home!Go over and have a look, he is still sitting there full of vigor.

Why did Wanyi and his wife leave the banquet, and took their two children home. Their home is not far from here, and Wanting and the others went to see them out.

Zhou Yi was still prevented from leaving the banquet by people, his family is far away from here!
I still asked Wanting to persuade these people, but as soon as the master came out, they let go.

The mother-in-law brought them back gifts, all of which were meat, and they didn't bring them. Knowing that she couldn't eat meat, Wanting brought a bag of vegetables to Yang Qingping.

At this time, Ya Li's neck was covered with duck eggs, and she walked happily.

Yang Qingping planned to return the salted duck eggs, but Wanting stopped her. She said that the children here like to make friends with her, and this gift cannot be returned. If it is returned, it means that she does not want to make friends.

There is such a custom!Wanting went to get two pairs of shoes for Ya Li, she liked it very much.

Parting Wanting still invited again: "Third brother, you are not welcome in the village. I told the village elder here that I am willing to accept you, and my mother-in-law and the others are also willing to share the land with you."

When she got married, she told about her situation. Everyone here felt sorry for her, and when she got married, she became a family.

People are also willing to accept her third brother, as long as you abide by the village rules, you are welcome.

There is no commotion among women here, and there is no danger to Yang Qingping. His sister has invited her many times, but he has refused.

"Wanting, we accept your favor here, as long as you and Wanyi live well." She hugged her sister affectionately.

I sincerely hope that the third brother can come, but he refuses without saying much. He is so happy to find that the third sister-in-law can chat normally.

They let go after hugging for a while, and there are some things that should be said to the third sister-in-law.

"Sister-in-law, don't believe what outsiders say about the third brother. We were inseparable when we were young, and he protected us every time we were beaten.

Niang used to be different than now, you can persuade the eldest sister-in-law and you can also persuade the mother, as for the second sister-in-law, I don’t know, if you can persuade the mother, we will go home in a fair manner, and you don’t have to live like that. "

In the hearts of the two sisters, the second sister-in-law is the scariest thing, and they are also very angry with the third brother's rumors.

On the eve of his escape from marriage, he told his sister everything, the most trustworthy person.

Seeing their brother and sister's deep love, Yang Qingping was moved and said: "Thank you, I believe in your brother, I will try my best to resolve my mother's concerns, I hope you will meet soon, you should go back first!"

Wanting sent them to Zhaikou, and each went back.

(This is a custom of the Miao nationality, which has been changed.)
