The Beijing Prosperity Record borrowed from Tokyo Menghualu.Note: I don't know the customs in other places, whether my grandchildren want to go out and kneel to pick up guests, we want it, so I wrote it according to our customs.------ digression------ the sisters and brothers studied diligently, the days passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye it was the eighth day of the lunar month, the winter snow began to fall, the snow was flying, the world was silver-white, the north wind was howling, the cold was cold, and it was the end of the year.Xu Baoer worked harder than before, and going to the capital to become a big official became his goal.Xu Qiaojun also resumed practicing calligraphy because of Li Yanze's words, writing ten characters every morning and afternoon, and reading books for half an hour.After reading the bustling record of the capital, everyone's impression of the capital is still only a written impression, and there is no sense of being there.Xu Baoer said firmly: "I must study hard, go to the capital to be a big official, and see the prosperity of Beijing with my own eyes." ”Xu Qiaojun glanced at him, flipped through the book and read: "The outer city of the Eastern Capital, with a radius of more than 40 miles, the moat is called the Dragon River, more than ten zhang wide, and the inside and outside of Hao are all planted with willows, pink walls and Zhu households, and people are forbidden to come and go.The city gate is all three layers of the urn city, bending to open the door, only the South Xue Gate, the Xinzheng Gate, the New Song Gate, the Fengqiu Gate are all straight doors double, cover the four main gates of this system, all stay in the royal road so also.The south wall of the new city, its door has three: the south gate is called the South Xun Gate, the south side of the city, the southeast is the Chenzhou Gate, there is the Cai River Water Gate Xiangguo Temple five times a month open to the surname trade, the big three doors are all birds, cats and dogs, rare birds and beasts, there are everything.The second and third doors are all used to use all things, and there is a colorful house in the courtyard, selling Puhe, Xi Xi, screen, washing, saddle bridles, bows and swords, Shiguo, Lapre, etc. ”Xu Qingchao went to take out the book and handed it to Xu Qiaojun, "Third sister, read it." ”"Second brother, what you said is equivalent to not saying it, I already knew that it would be better to let the third brother go."
Xu Bao'er pouted dissatisfied.Xu Qingchao is not good at words, the prosperity of the capital is described from his mouth, a few dry words, there are many people, there are many carriages, there are many shops, there are many things, and there are blue-eyed and red-haired people on the street.Here, Xu Liu continued to ask Wang Xiaohua about Wang Youran and others, and over there, Xu Hongyuan and others pulled Xu Qingchao aside and asked him about other situations in Beijing."
My mother is right, it will take time to see people's hearts."
Wang Xiaohua echoed.Xu Liu snorted coldly, "She just got married, so she has to pretend to be a few days, and wait to see it later." ”"The personality is not bad, I am very good to my aunt, and I don't pick my nose and eyes for our relatives in the countryside."
Wang Xiaohua said with a smile."
My pretty girl's appearance is one of the best, and it's hard to find someone better than my pretty girl."
Xu Liu raised his chin slightly, "How is her temperament, is she good to your aunt?"
”Wang Xiaohua and Xu Liu have been mother-in-law and daughter-in-law for decades, so I don't know what answer my mother-in-law wants."
Grandma."
Xu Qiaojun knew that Xu Liu's family was still upset about Li Yanze marrying someone else, but the matter was a foregone conclusion, and it was not good to compare her with others."
Is there a good look," Xu Liu asked.Wang Xiaohua smiled: "I don't know how to say it, she doesn't look ugly." ”"Phew" Xu Liu smiled at her, "Who doesn't have eyebrows or eyebrows, nose is nose, eyes are eyes, this nose should look like eyes, then what will become a monster." ”"Poof" everyone laughed out loud at her description."
It's called Wang Youran, and the eyebrows are eyebrows, the nose is the nose, and the eyes are the eyes."
Wang Xiaohua couldn't remember the word "eyebrows" for a while, so she had to change her words."
What is the name of Feng Jiu's daughter-in-law, is she not beautiful" Xu Liu was very concerned about this and asked.Others also have their own gifts.Xu Maocai laughed and said: "Okay, grandpa will wait for Bao'er to take the top prize, become a big official, and take grandpa to the capital to enjoy happiness." ”"Grandpa, I will be like Brother Feng Jiu, take the top prize, become a big official, and take you to the capital to enjoy happiness."
Xu Baoer is ambitious.Xu Maocai touched Xu Bao'er's head and said, "Bao'er, your Fengjiu brother hopes that you will be like him in the future, study and make progress, and glorify your ancestors." ”Li Yanze's gift to Xu Baoer was a book, a book for several undergraduate examinations."
Got it, I'll study hard and practice calligraphy."
Xu Qiaojun's face was slightly red, these days, she really hasn't practiced calligraphy, and she often reads books.Wang Xiaohua said with a straight face: "Qiao'er, your Brother Feng Jiu asked me to tell you, you don't practice calligraphy for three days, you can't slack off in reading and practicing calligraphy, he has the opportunity to go out of Beijing and return to his hometown, and he will come to check."
If they know that you are lazy, they will beat you hard with a ruler. ”Li Yanze's gifts to Xu Qiaojun were a notebook, a copper-gilt rabbit paperweight, several fine pens, two plum blossom incense ink ingots, and a jade ring ruler.Xu Jiaer took the brocade box, looked at the exquisitely shaped jewelry inside, and smiled from ear to ear."
Your Brother Feng Jiu knows that you are married, and said that this is a congratulatory gift for you."
Wang Xiaohua smiled, "This set of head noodles is the most fashionable style in Beijing, you wear it when you get married, and no one can compare to it." ”Li Yanze's gift to Xu Jiaer was a set of silver gilt head noodles.At the end of October, Xu Maocai and others, who went to the capital, returned to Sanjia Village and brought back several large carts of things, but Li Xu, Li Songhe and Zhao Lingling did not come back and stayed in Beijing for the New Year.After eating in Xiaoyuan Village, while it was still early, Xu Shuncheng took his wife and children to say goodbye and go home.Lu Chun'e's eyes flickered, she lowered her head to pick vegetables, and did not speak."
This matter will be settled, congratulations to the eldest sister for having a noble son-in-law."
Lu Chun returned home and smiled."
There will be no change, you can relax your heart."
Lu Chungeng's family comforted her."
This matter hasn't been settled yet, his father said, wait for Qiao'er Shouhong to finish the five months of filial piety.Who knows if this has changed. ”Lu Chunjiao sighed.Lu Chunzhi's family said with a smile: "My cousin married to Yanxia Village, I heard her say about this Guo family, but it is a good family, my father-in-law and mother-in-law are capable people, I have earned a lot of family business, I gave birth to two sons and two daughters, and the two daughters are the oldest, and they have already married."
The eldest son married two years ago and has not yet raised children.This Guo Shuhuai is the second eldest in his family, I heard that he looks dignified and is tall.Qiao'er can marry such a family, it is to enjoy happiness. ”The women's topics generally revolve around their children, and they don't know how to get married to them.In order to show off, Lu Chunjiao told Guo Shuhuai about finding someone to propose marriage.Back at the old mansion of the Lu family, the men sat in the hall drinking tea and chatting, and the women went to the stove room to cook food.The days passed, and on the day when Father Lu and Lu He's family were on the seventh day, Xu Shuncheng took his wife and children to Xiaoyuan Village.Lu Dongxing and Lu Yunhai brothers carried the tied spirit house to the mountain, burned it in front of the grave, burned the money paper, and worshiped at the grave.On September 30, Sui Jiru left Quanling City and returned to Hezhou.He wanted to go back and see how those fools dealt with Gu Xizhi who came back from the dead, "Yes." ”Di Ying Dao."
You stay and keep an eye on it to prevent anything unexpected."
Sui Ji Confucianism."
Young master, nothing will happen here in the Xu family, is the little one going back to Hezhou with you?"
asked Di Xuan.Sui Jiru shook the paper fan lightly and said lightly: "That bag of seeds will not be wasted." ”"If I knew there would be this, I wouldn't have wasted that bag of violet seeds."
Di Shen sighed.After Sui Jiru learned of this, he hooked his lips and smiled, and said, "Heaven fulfills people's wishes." ”"Thank you, third aunt."
Guo Shuhuai said with a smile.Tao Sangu agreed, "For your sincerity, this family business, Sangu will definitely help you facilitate." ”Guo Shuhuai said with a smile: "Then wait for five months, and then bother the third aunt to propose marriage." ”Bumping into a white thing is not what the Xu family wants.Tao Sangu told the Guo family.Xu Shuncheng is a son-in-law, and he has served filial piety to his parents-in-law for three months; Xu Qiaojun is a granddaughter, and she will serve her grandparents for five months.During the period of filial piety, you cannot talk about marriage.Xu Shuncheng replied to Tao Sangu, "Let's talk about this in five months." ”Six days later, the Lu family helped the spirit up the mountain.The two elders entered the soil for peace, invited relatives and friends to have a meal to go to the wine, the funeral was basically over, the matter of burning seven was responsible for the long house, and at the end of the seven, the family went up the mountain to burn the paper.This kind of scene will be staged every time a visitor comes.When he knelt down one day, Xu Qiaojun's knees were red and swollen.Fortunately, she is a granddaughter, not a filial son, and when there are no guests, she can rest and don't have to kneel on the mourning hall all the time."
Mother-in-law."
Lu Chungui shouted and knelt down, and the others also knelt down.Here, Xu Shuncheng just told Lu Chungui about Xu Liu's coming to mourn, and the sound of firecrackers over there had sounded, telling the master's family that someone was coming.The mourning and crying sounded, and Lu Chungui led Lu Chunzhi, Lu Chunjiao and others to greet them.Xu Qiaojun was no exception, with the help of Xu Jiaer, put on filial piety clothes and followed out.After listening to this, Xu Liu sighed, and according to custom, he took Qi and the two brothers to Xiaoyuan Village.When they arrived at Xiaoyuan Village, at the entrance of the village, Xu Liu's three got off the ox cart first, and Xu Shuncheng drove the ox cart to the door of Lu's house.After the affairs of the family were properly handled, Lu Chungeng went to He's house, Lu Dongxing went to his grandmother's house, Lu Lianhai went to his grandmother's house, Wang Tongfang went back to Wang's house to report the news, and by the way, he told Lu Chungui's parents-in-law about it.Xu Shuncheng took Xu Qiaojun back to Sanjia Village, Xu Qiaojun went back to see the flowers, and Xu Shuncheng went up the mountain to report the news.When the person died, Huangquan was difficult to help up, and the Lu family endured their grief, carried out another coffin, put it in the hall, and put the Lu He family inside.The two became husband and wife, and now they live and die together.This shout woke up all the people who were asleep in the house, and they got up one after another to ask what happened, and learned that Lu He had hanged himself and died, Lu Chun'e was heartbroken, her eyes were black, and she fainted.frightened everyone into a hurry, Lu Chunjiao pinched her and woke her up.The sky was hazy, Lu Chungeng got up and prepared to go to He's house to report the funeral, before going out, I wanted to talk to Lu He's family, raised my hand and knocked on the door, but saw that the door was hidden, pushed open the door and saw Lu He's hanging on the beam, stunned for a while, only to realize that Lu He had committed suicide, and shouted in a sorrowful voice: "Mother":
