They all said so, Su Yixin just thought that she was too tired.
When Su Yixin got up in the morning the next day, except for practicing in Taolin for an hour, she spent the rest of the time either sleeping or eating.
It can be said to be completely relaxed.
After a comfortable day, the next day is the first day of the year.
In the Northern Song Dynasty, it was called Yuanri, and in later generations it was called New Year.
It all means the same thing.
Regarding Yuan Ri, a poem by the poet Wang Anshi expresses this meaning very well, called "Yuan Ri":
The sound of firecrackers marks the end of the year, and the spring breeze brings warmth to Tusu.
Thousands of households always replace old talismans with new peaches.
Before dawn, I heard the sound of firecrackers one after another, which was very lively.
Firecrackers were also called firecrackers in the Northern Song Dynasty. In this period without gunpowder and paper, the ancients used their wisdom to invent "firecrackers".
It is to burn bamboo with fire to make it crackle, which is used to drive away the god of plague.
These were passed down as folklore in later generations, and Su Yixin really felt all of this here.
Opening the door, from the height of their home, you can see many people's homes. Children are playing and playing. Adults use a brazier to put bamboo into the basin. After a while, the sound of explosions is heard, and people's faces Overflowing with happiness and joy.
Su Yixin felt the villagers' good wishes for a better life.
The Gu family is naturally no exception.
Xingcai's cousin and adopted brother brought a large iron basin to the gate early. There were a lot of bamboos in the back mountain. They had already chopped the bamboos yesterday. Today, they just need to throw the chopped bamboo into the basin and light it on fire. Just fine.
Not long after, a "cracking" sound came from the iron basin, which was extremely loud.
Brother Xi and Sister Ming stood aside, clapping their hands and jumping and making noise happily, still eating the candy figures they bought from Yuyuan Town two days ago.
After setting off the firecrackers, the next step is to post the couplets.
There are many people in the family, and there are many good calligraphers. Not to mention Gu Qingjue, his handwriting is just like the printed words, and he has a strong personal style, just like Master Zeng's handwriting, vigorous and powerful, flying dragons and phoenixes, Qiu Qingjue. Hong's handwriting is also more than delicate.
Apart from anything else, Qiu Hong's handwriting is still very good and he is also talented.
Let’s talk about the cousins. Except for cousin Xingcai’s calligraphy, which is difficult to read, cousins Xingmou and Xinghai’s calligraphy are both very majestic.
However, no matter how ugly Baili Xingcai's handwriting is, Su Yixin can't compare to it.
Even Li Zhengzhen, who is very obsessed with eating, his words are equally attractive when he gets serious.
Even eight-year-old Xi Ge'er has been attending private school for several months, and his handwriting is now much better than hers.
Su Yixin looked around and thought that Gao Ge, like her, came from later generations and couldn't write with a brush. Unexpectedly, Gao Ge's handwriting was beautiful and tight. After finishing writing, she looked at Su Yixin proudly: "The word sister is enviable. No!"
"envious."
Su Yixin gritted her teeth.
There are so many people, except for the youngest sister Ming, she is the only one who can't use calligraphy.
Su Yixin was really embarrassed.
Sister Ming didn't realize Su Yixin's embarrassment at all, and asked curiously: "Sister-in-law, they are all writing couplets, why don't you?"
There is a slight pause in one sentence, but the words are clearly enunciated and can be heard clearly.
"Ah... this, so many people have written about it. It's enough, and it's not inferior to the picture of A-sao."
Gu Qingjue on the side heard this, came over and picked up Sister Ming: "What the elder brother wrote is what your sister-in-law wrote, they are all the same!"
Even if Gu Qingming is an ancient spirit, he still doesn't understand the meaning of Gu Qingjue's words.
They are two people. What the eldest brother wrote was written by the eldest brother. How come it was written by the sister-in-law?
At this time, Brother Xi put the written couplets on the big table aside to dry, then took Sister Ming from Gu Qingjue's hand, held her farther away, and said to Gu Qingming mysteriously: " Sister Ming, eldest brother and eldest sister-in-law are just like father and mother-in-law. They will sleep together to have babies in the future, so what belongs to eldest brother belongs to sister-in-law, and what belongs to sister-in-law still belongs to sister-in-law!"
Su Yixin, who was deliberately eavesdropping, happened to meet Gu Qingjue's slightly slender peach blossom eyes: "!!!"
Didn't he hear it too?
I heard Brother Xi's remarks. What's yours is mine, and what's mine is still mine. This word is unlikely to appear in this era.
After taking a look at the smiling Gao Ge, I understood immediately.
Xi Ge'er is Gao Ge's apprentice. These fresh words must have been taught by Gao Ge.
Huh, if you think her handwriting is ugly, then she'll go burn lanterns.
Su Yixin placed the tools for pasting the lantern one by one, and then used the Qi of the Five Elements to guide the red paper on the lantern frame made of bamboo. Guided by the Qi of the Five Elements, the thickness of the lantern was very even.
Gu Qingjue was very happy to see Su Yixin put the paper on the lantern and write the word "福" with a pen.
Gu Qingjue knows several fonts. Every time he pastes up a lantern, he writes it in one font. Then he places the lanterns next to the table, next to the couplets, and waits for the ink to dry!
After doing this, Su Yixin went to the kitchen and found that there were a few more people, and even on the first day of the year, they were still busy in an orderly manner.
Coming out of the kitchen, Su Yixin was about to eat melon seeds, crossed her legs, and saw An Lan coming over with a baggage.
"girl."
An Lan greeted Su Yixin with a smile on her face. She couldn't hide the smile on her face.
Su Yixin clicked her tongue twice: "It seems you are looking for someone to take over!"
"Girl, that's right!"
Su Yixin was also very happy that Anlan was back with her.
Today is the first day of the year, and in two days we will start visiting relatives and friends. There is a lot of detail in what kind of gifts should be prepared according to the relationship. An Lan is very familiar with these things. With her taking care of things, Su Yixin doesn't have to worry at all.
One word: cool.
The written couplets were all dry, and the rice milk cooked in the kitchen was ready. My brother and cousins each carried a bunch of them, each holding a brush, and pasted all the places that needed to be pasted from the inside out.
Su Yixin and Gu Qingjue hung up lanterns.
I could have just flown up and hung it up, but today is the Chinese New Year, and what I want is the Chinese New Year atmosphere.
Therefore, he brought a ladder, and Gu Qingjue climbed up, took the lantern from Su Yixin, and hung it up carefully.
Everyone worked together separately, and soon the Gu family was decorated very festively.
For lunch, I had vegetarian noodles made by Fang’s mother. There were so many people that I made six large pots. After eating, the kitchen became completely busy preparing for the New Year’s Eve dinner in the evening.
This year's New Year's Eve dinner is a menu prepared by Su Yixin, with a total of twenty-eight dishes.
Wang Yunduo was taken home by Wang Sanyun yesterday, so this year's First Day was divided into two tables. The dishes on both tables were the same, that is, fifty-six plates. The workload of washing and cutting was still very large.
