Chapter 270 Another year of Chinese New Year
"I don't know who my cousin's boss is. I just know that nine months ago, my cousin said that someone asked him to be a hall, and then I realized that my cousin had another job to do."
At this time, it was not only Li Er who was investigating this mysterious person. Even Yang Heng began to pay attention to this mysterious person. At first, he thought he had met a fellow villager, but after careful consideration, he was wrong. This was not a fellow villager. During this party, he found that the layout of the room was a typical ancient arrangement, the antique room, the dining table for one person, and even the embroidery pedestal for one person, all showed that the owner was very tasteful. In addition, there was another embroidery pedestal next to one case, which was added specifically for some women who accompanied the wine. It was also considered the psychology of some men, so it was added.
Whether it is the layout of the room, the layout of the house, and the decoration of the house, it shows that this is a genuine ancient man, not Yang Heng's so-called fellow countrymen, and those women seem to have been specially trained. No matter how frown and smiled, they all showed traces of manual carving. The only one who had not been carved was this woman. Yang Heng also asked. It was her first time to come to this place, and she begged her cousin to find a job to earn money to serve her sick mother. Unexpectedly, she encountered such a thing the first time, but she was frightened. If she had known this, she would rather wash clothes for the neighbors than make the money.
Fortunately, she met Yang Heng. What did Yang Heng want to bring her back? Naturally, she was working as a music teacher for her younger brothers and sisters, and her mother naturally needed to keep her. She would just live in two houses at home. The house in their city. As long as the land deed is there, no one can move away, so what if it is placed there.
Also, Yang Heng quickly sent a message to Mr. Sun, asking him to come to the city for the New Year and treat Xiao Cui's mother. At first, Yang Heng thought Xiao Cui's mother was an ugly and vulgar old lady, but when he saw this old lady, he realized that he was wrong. This was a very clean old lady. Although the clothes on her body were patched, they were very neat and clean, and they were cleaned up neatly. After talking, he realized that in the previous dynasty, she was once a lady of imperial decree. But why are they so declining now? This dynasty changed. Naturally, there would be a group of people frustrated and a group of people were proud, and her husband was one of the frustrated people, and her parents' family was also defeated in the war.
"Old lady, and this lady Cui, you can live here with peace of mind. Doctor Sun will come soon. He will treat the old lady with illness. And Madam Cui, after the Chinese New Year, you will be the music teacher for all our children in our family. If you lack anything, you can find the butler and I will leave first."
"Old son (slave) gives you the husband." "Okay, don't give it to me. You can make arrangements for yourself. If you have something to take at home, you can explain it to the servant or tell the housekeeper."
Yang Heng didn't want to care about Xiao Cui's father was an official from the previous dynasty, nor did he want to know the reason for their family's destruction. Now Yang Heng couldn't know what news about this mysterious boss from her mouth, so he naturally had to leave.
However, Yang Heng soon put this aside. Why? The Chinese New Year is about to be celebrated. It has not been a good gathering with his family for several years. This time, Yang Heng was idle early before the New Year, so he decided to spend the New Year well and gather everyone together. In addition, his father and several uncles were not in a good mood. Just this year, they were actually expelled from the clan. Why? The patriarch climbed up the high branch again. The father disagreed, and the uncles disagreed with the father. But this was exactly the same as the other family members. These uncles took Yang Heng's light and became a scattered official. They were unhappy without gaining money. But with the opportunity to climb the high branch, they even let their favorite son inherit the family business. How could they be unhappy?
But my father was a little reluctant to leave the valley, but Yang Heng had no feeling. It was just a springboard place. There was nothing to be left for nostalgia, but the scenery was better. Moreover, Yang Heng had already brought out some important things and handed over the other fields and houses to his second uncle. It was said that the second uncle owed them, but they did not owe them to his second uncle or Aweng, but it was also considered as giving Aweng an explanation for his father's raising grace. Since they followed the clan leader, that place was not their home.
"Brother-in-law, what are you doing?" Yu Zhang is now increasingly reluctant to go back to the palace. He doesn't want to go back even during the Chinese New Year. Li Er has not arranged someone to call her, but she doesn't leave, and there is no way for the people to come. Naturally, Li Er has no choice. This is impossible if it is placed on other princesses. But if it is placed on Yu Zhang, Li Er really likes to accommodate her and is not even afraid of the advice of the censors. Even Yang Heng is a little confused about what Li Er means. It seems that Changle has not been treated so well before. Even Changsun, the direct manager of the harem, turned a blind eye and let Yu Zhang play crazy outside.
"What are you doing? Didn't you see that this is engraving the peach talisman? This is Shentu, Yulei. They are door gods, so they will naturally hang it next to the door during the Chinese New Year." What is Yang Heng saying? Naturally, it is peach talisman. There are two names engraved on the peach talisman, one is Shentu and the other is Yulei, which is used to hang it on both sides of the door to ward off evil spirits during the Spring Festival.
"Brother-in-law, why do I find that the sentences on both sides of your academy are good? Why don't you hang the sentences on the door?" "What do you know? This is the Chinese New Year for auspiciousness. Ah, continuous sentences, couplets, couplets, couplets, couplets, couplets, couplets, why did I forget this? Okay, uncle, let's make this smaller, so I won't hang it on the door, but on both sides. I have something new to hang on the door, but on the housekeeper, come here." "You little husband, call me." "Well, go, dye our paper that cannot be used for printing to red. By the way, you need to dye more, find more craftsmen, and let the dye on it be dried as soon as possible. I'm useful."
"Brother-in-law, why are you dyeing red paper? Is it related to the New Year?" "It's related, it's related, of course." Yang Heng said excitedly. He has always been bound by some traditional ideas. He once thought about couplets, but he just didn't practice it because it was not an important thing. But now after Yu Zhang reminded that since there are already couplets in the academy, it's okay to come up with Spring Festival couplets accordingly. And now there is nothing short of spring couplets. It's just the time to launch Spring Festival couplets, especially students in the academy, can send them a few pieces of paper and ask them to write several couplets according to their own home situation, or Li Gang can even write a few couplets for them to take them back, or the couplets written by Li Gang can be regarded as a reward, and the students are about to have a holiday.
"Master Li, you have written this first picture." Although Li Gang said he had a home in Chang'an City, his family was not here, so when the students were on holiday, he also came to Yang Heng's house for the New Year.
Although the students were on holiday, they had not returned home yet, so they were waiting for Yang Heng to come home after the new things came out. So Yang Heng invited Li Gang to come in advance. This couplet is a new thing. It is similar to poetry, but it is different, so he must first understand the format.
"How to write, tell me to listen, and then I will write." Yang Heng cut out a couplet paper on the door, but he suddenly realized that the paper was cut a bit big, and the words were written a lot, and the words were much less. But just so happened that Yang Heng had a couplet in his heart, so naturally it was plagiarized.
"Loyalty and integrity have been passed down for a long time, and poetry and books have been passed down for generations." Naturally, Yang Heng wrote this couplet for Li Er to read, but Yang Heng just forgot the horizontal draft. If you forget it, forget it. Anyway, there will be Spring Festival couplets in this era. Who knows that there is a horizontal draft? Isn't it even more fresh to write a horizontal draft next year?
"Not bad, not bad, I probably understand the meaning of this Spring Festival couplet, so I will go back to the academy, and the children are still waiting!" Yes, Yang Heng had such a little face, and Old Li Gang wrote him such a couplet, which was what Yang Heng thought of. (To be continued...)
