The whole family traveled through ancient times with their house
Chapter 177 Chinese New Year
Luo Mengzi's wife was embarrassed to chase everyone away. Besides, this was a good thing, so why should she chase them away? Just watch, and it would also make her daughter proud.
But she really likes others looking at her with envy.
Especially the jealous look of Gao Laosan's wife, although it made her feel disgusted, she was not afraid.
The fact that Gao Laosan was not going to be a small flag was known to the entire Xishan Hundred Households Office. That was the decision made by the captain, so it couldn't be blamed on her husband.
Gao Laosan's wife looked at Luo Saozi's arrogance and secretly resented her. What's so proud about this? Her husband had also been a minor bannerman. Humph, didn't she just find a son-in-law from the Thirteenth Banner? And she's showing off like no one has daughters.
The Gao family also has a daughter. When her daughter grows up, she will definitely marry into the Thirteen Banners to see how the Luo family is still showing off.
Mrs. Luo didn't know that Gao Laosan's wife had such a beautiful pursuit. She had to go back to the house to discuss serious matters with her future in-laws.
After the two families had discussed it, the Luo family went to the Thirteen Banners the next day.
After the Luo family came to the Thirteen Banners, Mrs. Luo took her daughter to see the large courtyard of the Ma family's blue brick and tile house and the neat fields of the Thirteen Banners. The wedding date was soon set in February of the following year.
The Ma family's betrothal gift was twenty taels of silver, a heavy gold hairpin, and four seasons' worth of clothing. This betrothal gift alone was among the highest in the entire Xishan Hundred Households Office.
When people saw the betrothal gift that the Ma family gave to the daughter of the Luo family, all the families in the Xishan Hundred Households who had daughters of marriageable age were envious and jealous of the Luo family.
Luo Mengzi and his wife don’t care. As long as the girl marries well, they can’t help but let others get jealous.
The couple also agreed that they would keep ten taels of silver and give the rest to the girl as a dowry to take back to her husband's home.
The marriage between the Ma Luo family was settled, and it was the end of the year.
Jiang Yan was not in a good condition to travel, so Ye Zhan went to Feng's house on his behalf and brought them enough food for the New Year.
Feng Yongshou and Gao saw the tall and handsome Ye Zhan, who was not only polite but also impeccable in his dealings with others, and they were happy for their niece.
Feng Zhi also secretly glanced at his brother and sister-in-law, and only put away his curiosity when he saw that there was nothing unusual on their faces.
Gao actually wanted to ask her niece's husband if he had written to the Jiang family's eldest wife, but since her niece didn't come, Gao didn't dare to ask.
When Ye Zhan returned from the Feng family, he couldn't help but ask Jiang Yan, "That Feng family boss is the one who was engaged to your original self, right?"
"Yes what's the matter?"
"I didn't look at him straight in the eye, but I always felt that he was not convinced."
"What's there to be dissatisfied about? It's been five or six years, and they've all gotten married."
"Maybe he didn't expect that there would be someone like me in this inconspicuous place."
"Hey! You've even learned to sell melons like Lao Wang."
"That's the truth. Isn't your husband better than Boss Feng?"
"too strong."
"That's pretty much it."
"Dad, stop being so narcissistic. Can you help me make two fireworks? If you can't, just make two fireworks that make noises will do."
"What are you doing with that?"
"We should celebrate the New Year in a festive way. It would be so beautiful if we set off fireworks on New Year's Eve."
Ye Zhan thought about it, nodded and agreed to his daughter's request, and made two big fireworks.
Jiang Yan was curious about what it would look like, and Ye Zhan's answer was straightforward. "From a modern perspective, it's pretty ordinary. From the perspective of this era, it's stunning and timeless."
Jiang Yan: "A straight man of steel, but now he has become artistic and can even make the little woman's eyes light up."
Yichen was also surprised, "Dad, you look like an artistic youth now."
"Okay, you two, stop looking at me like I'm a monster. I'm afraid I'll become proud."
"Hahaha, my dad is becoming more and more full of life."
"Oh, look, my wife, our little cotton-padded jacket is praising me."
"My daughter has praised you a lot." During the years when the mother and daughter were leaning on each other, the daughter would occasionally talk about her father's strengths to spice up their simple life.
"..." Ye Zhan silently held both mother and daughter in his arms. Although he had not participated in the ten years that the mother and daughter spent without him, he could feel the longing that ran deep into their bones.
There were people talking outside. It was Balang and Jiulang, who came to call them to go to the Ye family for the New Year's Eve dinner.
Jiang Yan is pregnant this year, and the chefs for the New Year's Eve dinner are Ye Dasao and her three sisters-in-law.
When Jiang Yan and her family of three came over, the New Year's Eve dinner was almost ready.
Except for Ye Zhanyang, all the other members of the Ye family were present. When Mrs. Ye saw her youngest son and his family coming, she hurriedly invited Jiang Yan and her granddaughter to get on the kang.
Ye Zhan put the wine and sorghum wine brewed by Jiang Yan on the table.
The old general suppressed his drunken urge and took his second and third sons to carefully examine Ye Zhan's waist, legs and feet.
Seeing that his youngest son was truly well, General Ye smiled and shouted, "When we pay our respects to our ancestors tonight, I must tell them that Xiaoliu is fully recovered."
Before the New Year's Eve dinner, the old general led his family to face northwest and kowtow to their ancestors, muttering to himself, "I, your unworthy descendant, Ye Xiongtian, lead my children and grandchildren to kowtow to the ancestors of the Ye family. This year should be considered a very good year for our family. Xiaoliu is in good health and is as healthy as ever. Your unworthy descendant, Ye Xiongtian, thanks the ancestors of the Ye family for their blessings..."
The old general mumbled a lot, and the whole family knelt behind him, listening silently.
Until the old general kowtowed, they followed suit.
When they got back to the house, Old Lady Ye hurriedly pulled Jiang Yan onto the kang. "Your father was too slow just now. He must not let you get cold."
"Mom, it's okay. I'm not that fragile."
"There are two of you now. You'd better be careful in this weather. Don't get cold."
"Thank you, mother."
"You don't need to thank me."
This is her youngest son's family of three. It's the second time she's celebrating the New Year with them, so there's still some caution in Mrs. Ye's words.
Jiang Yan also understood the old lady's feelings. Her son was abducted when he was young and did not grow up with her.
Now my son has finally recognized me, but he is old and has a wife and children.
At this age, there has to be a limit to how both parties interact with each other. Otherwise, it will be awkward and misunderstandings are likely to occur.
Jiang Yan was just thinking about it when she heard the voice of Mrs. Ye: "Dinner is ready."
"Hey, let's have dinner. Come here quickly, Chenchen, and sit next to your mother."
"Hey!"
Old Mrs. Ye and her little granddaughter sat on Jiang Yan's left and right, constantly serving her her favorite dishes.
Jiang Yan saw that her bowl was quickly piled up like a mountain, so she quickly told them not to take more. "It's too much. I really can't eat it all."
