When Jia Lian saw that Jia She was angry, he was instantly frightened and pretended to be a grandson with drooped eyelids.
Jia Cong couldn't stand it any longer, so he came directly to Jia She and whispered a few words in his ear. After hearing this, Jia Cong's face turned from anger to joy, and his attitude suddenly changed 180 degrees.
"Are you telling the truth? You didn't lie to me, did you?"
Jia Cong said solemnly: "What the master said, when did my child ever lie to you? It is of course true. We brothers were also happy for a moment, so we drank a few more drinks. This is all the credit of second brother Lian. "
Jia She couldn't help laughing when he heard this, "Okay, okay, you two did a good job, you are indeed my good son."
Seeing Jia She's moody look, everyone shook their heads and sighed, it was really hopeless.
Mother Jia said with a look of disgust: "Okay, don't go crazy there. Now that everyone is here, let's go to worship the Kitchen God."
The eldest son, Jia She, and his family have been very proud and high-spirited recently. Lian'er and Feng Ge'er are in charge of the family. Cong'er also has a large family business, and his eldest son can't make a fortune either. The benefits of less.
On the contrary, his youngest son, Jia Zheng, and his family have lost the power to run the family. Their second daughter-in-law, Wang, has also been ordered to stay in seclusion in the Buddhist hall for a year. Recently, this youngest son has always looked sad, which is heart-wrenching to see.
When I think of this, I get very angry, and I don’t want to see my eldest son anymore. Hey! What an injustice!
Jia She had long been accustomed to the old lady's attitude and no longer cared about it. He cupped his hands and said, "Yes, old lady, let's go to worship the Kitchen God."
Only men can participate in this sacrifice to the Kitchen God, and women are not allowed to worship.
Jia She led Jia Lian, Jia Cong, Jia Zheng, Jia Baoyu, Jia Huan, Jia Lan and other children of the Jia family to the big kitchen.
The incense table has already been set up here, with an incense burner on it. On both sides are incense candles, fruits, honey, wine and vegetables, cattle, sheep, pigs and other tribute tributes.
Legend has it that the Kitchen God in the sky is dedicated to reporting all kinds of news on earth to the Jade Emperor. People hope that the Kitchen God can say a few kind words for them today, so they all prepare honey in the hope that the Kitchen God will eat it sweetly. Honey, you can say more nice things in front of the Jade Emperor.
Jia She stepped forward and lit the incense candle, then added another stick of incense and inserted it into the incense burner.
Then they offer tea and wine, read out some essays, thank them for their protection for the past year, ask for forgiveness for their unintentional sins, and pray for good fortune in the coming year.
Then put the Shuwen into the incense burner and light it, and then burn the paper money.
After three sticks of incense, everyone knelt down and thanked the Kitchen God for his protection.
Jia She and Jia Zheng were in the front, and a group of juniors were in the back. They kowtowed three times respectfully.
After the kneeling ceremony, you can silently recite the wishes you want to realize in the new year. It can be wishes for good health or good fortune. If you keep them in your mind, there will be echoes.
At this point, the ceremony to worship the Kitchen God officially ends.
The next step is for the family to sit together and enjoy delicious food.
Everyone returned to Jia Mu's room, sat together and chatted, waiting for the banquet to begin.
In fact, Jia She and Jia Zheng were present in this scene. All the juniors were as silent as a cicada and did not dare to fight at will. Jia's mother also likes to have fun, so usually Jia She and Jia Zheng would not come over if nothing happened. Unfortunately, today it is the juniors. Year, it won’t work if I don’t come.
Mother Jia saw that something was wrong in the atmosphere. Her precious grandson Baoyu huddled aside like a quail, without the joy of the past, and she didn't know what was going on.
Facing Jia Zheng, Jia She waved his hand and said, "You brothers, go and enjoy yourself outside. Don't disturb us ladies here."
Jia She knew what he was doing, so he quickly stood up and said with a smile: "Then my son won't disturb the old lady's pleasure. The second child and I are here, and these children will be restrained and uncomfortable. Look how frightened Baoyu is." .”
After saying that, before the old lady could get angry, she stood up and walked out.
Jia Cong felt a burst of criticism in his heart. He really didn't like to pick up any of the pots. No wonder he had to make the old lady like him.
Jia Zheng glanced at Jia Baoyu and saw that he looked like a mouse meeting a cat. He was also very angry. However, in front of the old lady, he did not dare to discipline him. He could only give him a fierce look and stood up. The outer room.
Mother Jia glared at the backs of her two sons, then turned back to comfort her precious baby Baoyu.
When Jia Cong saw this, he quickly stood up, but saw Daiyu looking towards him, winking at her with a busy smile, then turned around and went outside.
After Xichun listened to Jia Cong's fairy tales, she was completely fascinated. She wrote down all the stories she had heard and read them several times every day.
It's just that Jia Cong went to the farm and hadn't heard a new story for almost a month. When he saw Jia Cong back today, he immediately thought about how to get him to tell him a new story.
Since Jia Cong entered the room, his eyes had not left his side. Suddenly I saw him winking, and I couldn't help but feel happy. The third brother finally saw me, but when I looked closely, I saw that something was wrong, his eyes were not directed at me.
Following Jia Cong's gaze, he suddenly realized that he was winking at Sister Lin.
When he came to Lin Daiyu, he pulled her aside and said with a smile: "Sister Lin, you and the third brother are flirting with each other, what are you talking about?"
Lin Daiyu stretched out her hand and pinched Xichun's chubby cheeks, and glared at her, "Fourth girl, what kind of look are you looking at? Is that a wink? Is that a wink?"
Xichun smiled and said, "Then what did you say with a wink?"
"Bah, that's because your third brother is winking there and wants to know what he means. Why don't you ask him? Why are you looking for me? You girl don't want to hear stories again, do you?"
Lin Daiyu looked at Xichun with a playful look on her face, as if she was saying: "Humph, I've seen through you, please tell me the truth." '
Xichun was not embarrassed when his little thoughts were seen through. He smiled and said: "Sister Lin is the smartest. She guessed it right away. How about we invite the third brother over and tell us a story?"
Lin Daiyu felt warm after hearing this. In fact, she also wanted to hear a new story. She took a look at the surrounding environment and suppressed the idea.
"Fourth sister, today is not a good time. Your third brother should come to me tomorrow afternoon to give a lecture. If he doesn't come, we will go find him."
Hearing what she said, Xichun could only nod helplessly, "Okay, just listen to Sister Lin. If the third brother doesn't come tomorrow, go to his house to find him."
Seeing that the two of them were talking incessantly, Jia Mu asked curiously: "What are you two sisters whispering about without telling us all? Say it and make us all happy."
