A retired aunt traveled through time and space, and her daughter became rich!

Time flies.

In the blink of an eye, it was September 9th.

At the Qian family near Sujiazhuang Village, Mrs. Qian got up early in the morning.

I finished all the chores around the house and had breakfast.

Seeing that the men in the house had all gone to work, she went to the kitchen and boiled a large pot of hot water.

Qian's wife was watching from the side holding her child, very puzzled.

"Mom, why are you boiling so much water?"

Mrs. Qian said happily, "Today is a festival, boil some water to wipe your body and wash your hair!"

Qian's wife was still puzzled.

"If we boil water now, Dad and Dalang won't be back until noon, so the water will be cold by then, right?"

Mrs. Qian glanced at her and said, "Who said it was for them? This is what I want to use! If you want to use it, wait until I finish washing it and then you can burn it."

Qian's daughter-in-law was very surprised.

These men have been doing heavy work outside and are covered in sweat and stink, so they have to wash and change their clothes.

But her mother-in-law is not a person who likes to take a bath. Sometimes she doesn't take a bath for several months in winter. Now it is September and the weather is getting colder. She is considered diligent if she takes a bath once every ten days or so.

The last time I took a shower was five days ago. It’s only been five days, why do I have to take a shower again?

"Mom, didn't you just wash?"

Mrs. Qian glanced at him and said, "Today is the Double Ninth Festival! The old lady said it is a festival to respect the elderly! All of us who are over fifty years old have received Double Ninth Festival flower cakes!"

The Chongyang Flower Cake was delivered to my home yesterday.

She and the old man both have one, one each!

Fortunately, she is fifty years old this year. If she were one year younger, there would be no flower cake!

The Qian family's daughter-in-law had dull eyes. She still didn't understand what respecting the elderly had to do with taking a bath.

Mrs. Qian looked at her daughter-in-law with disdain, "You! You just don't know how to deal with things!"

"Every time the old lady goes up the mountain to the temple to burn incense, she always passes by our house! You never know how to come out and talk and do things quickly!"

The daughter-in-law lowered her head helplessly, "I, I don't know what to do?"

The old lady was a distinguished person, with many people surrounding her. Just by looking at her from afar, her legs would cramp. How could she dare to go up to her, say something appropriate, and please the old lady?

As for her own mother-in-law, she also admired her mother-in-law's ability to strike up a conversation even when there was nothing to say and to seize opportunities to do so.

I don’t know if she will be able to practice it when she reaches my mother-in-law’s age!

Mrs. Qian snorted.

Ask her to come over and help carry the water.

"You don't know how to do it now, but you have to learn it slowly!"

"Now you have me and your father-in-law, two old men, helping you to hold up the door. When we stretch our legs, won't you be able to stand on your own feet?"

The Qian family's wife coughed lightly and said, "Mom, what are you talking about stretching your legs? You are both very strong!"

Mrs. Qian thought so too. Today is a festival, and it is not appropriate to say this.

"Pooh, pooh, pooh! Children should not be restrained in their words. I am old and confused and just uttered something... All right, just leave it here! Go out and close the door for me!"

Mrs. Qian was in the kitchen, washing the dishes thoroughly with a loud splash of water.

When Mrs. Qian came out of the kitchen, she had a piece of cloth wrapped around her hair and asked her daughter-in-law to help her carry the used water away.

As she lifted it, she kept muttering.

"The old lady said that, just like last time, she has reserved seats in front of the stage for the elderly people in the village!"

"Well, I finally have a festival, how can I not wash and tidy everything up?"

What's more, by the afternoon, Mrs. Qian's hair was dry.

She sat in front of the broken bronze mirror at home, combing and uncombing her hair, and finally combed it into a smooth bun.

She also did not forget to take out a maroon velvet flower from the bottom of the box and put it next to her ear.

He also put a silver bracelet on his wrist.

As for the clothes she was wearing, she picked out her best one and put it on casually.

The eyes of the other members of the Qian family widened.

Old Man Qian nodded and praised, "Da Lang's mother, you are really energetic today!"

Qian Dalang also praised, "Mother's outfit is really decent!"

The Qian family's wife whispered, "Mom took a bath in the morning and combed her hair and changed her clothes in the afternoon. It took her a lot of time!"

As soon as she said this, she immediately reminded others.

"Oh! Is it too late to boil water now?"

"Why didn't mother remind us to wash ourselves clean?"

The Qian family of four went through a lot of trouble before they finally left the house when it was getting dark.

As soon as I walked into the village, I saw that there were already quite a few people standing in front of the stage.

It was Su Zhuangtou who said, don't come too early, the competition will start when it's almost dark. If you come early and stand there doing nothing, don't wait until it really starts, you will be so tired that you look unpresentable!

Qian Dalang chuckled twice.

"They all agreed, so they all came early, didn't they?"

The people in the Qian family are just too honest!

But no matter what, the old couple of the Qian family are over 50 years old, and they have two seats in the first few rows of the stage.

Sure enough, Su Dashan, the second son of the Su family who was in charge of the reception, walked over with a smile when he saw the old couple from the Qian family and led them to their seats.

There were waves of envious discussions among the standing crowd.

"Oh, look at the old Qian family. Both the couple have seats. They are really lucky."

"Look at Aunt Qian, she's dressed like she's going out for a drink! She even has a flower on her head!"

"Even drinking doesn't make you so energetic!"

"Hey, look, Grandma Chen San is here too!"

"Mrs. Chen San is still wearing her headband embroidered with turquoise!"

Although Mrs. Qian came with her old man, the seat assigned to her was for the other old women.

This is not surprising. During the last Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival, the elderly also sat separately.

After all, although at this age, the distinction between men and women is much weaker, it would save a lot of trouble if they can be separated.

When she sat down, she saw that there were already four or five maids sitting around her.

When Mrs. Chen in front turned her head, the turquoise on her headband became very conspicuous.

The turquoise nine-pin silver earrings on her ears were still shaking.

Mrs. Qian raised her hand to straighten her collar, and her sleeves fell down to reveal the bracelet on her wrist.

Fortunately, she cleaned up, otherwise she would have been defeated by these old women in the village in such a big occasion!

Eighteen old ladies over fifty years old gradually filled up the seats.

Not one of them, not one of them, came without any makeup, without any jewelry or hair ornaments!

Even the eighty-year-old old lady who had become a great-grandmother wore an embroidered headband and put on the silver earrings and silver ring that she had kept in the bottom of her box!
