Chapter 57 Move to a new house, worship the four corners
"Auntie, drink tea."
"Fengxia, I just said that Xiaofeng is a promising kid. Let's see how long it has been since he came back." Wang Lan kept praising Li Feng for his promising work. He earned two thousand a day and tens of thousands of yuan in a month.
"He's just messing around."
Wang Fengxia's mouth was full of smiles. How could she not be happy and proud of her son's ability? "We are going to have farmhouse fun again. His father and I don't know how to cook. He is so busy every day that he is like a headless fly. Where can we go?"
Take care of things."
"Young people are all the same."
Li Feng was teasing the little soybean on the side. I wonder if this little thing was caused by a light bead. Now it is the bully in the small courtyard. The chickens in the house are chased by it and they dare not touch the house. "Let's play."
"
"Woof woof woof."
After a while, he caused trouble again. He took off his shoe in his mouth and ran away happily. Li Fushan chased the little thing and took off his shoe.
"Mom, I went to deliver food and I won't be back tonight. The fruit shop will be crowded tomorrow weekend."
"Okay, okay, okay."
"Slow down on the road."
I drove a pickup truck to Chang'an, and first unloaded the fruits and sent them to the fruit shop. It is summer vacation, and there are almost no people on the small street in front of Chang'an University. There is no way this street is doing business for students. Most students go home during the holidays.
.
"boss."
"Wait until someone comes to get the fruit. Here is the list. You can go back and check it."
Durian, mangosteen and several tropical fruits were brought down and Liu Hong gave some instructions. She moved the stale fruits to the car and stuffed them into the pearls. "I'll leave the store to you. If you need anything, call me. I have a whole day today."
They are all in Chang'an."
"Don't worry, boss."
There hasn't been much business recently, so Liu Hong can take care of it all by herself. In addition, there is not much business in the surrounding restaurants, so she can deliver the food to the store just by saying hello. Liu Hong feels that this kind of job is quite comfortable.
Li Feng walked out of the small street at the front gate of Chang'an University and came to the old city in the north. He first handed twenty kilograms of bloodline eels to his brother-in-law Dong Zhen. "Xiao Feng, Chef Liu wants to buy more eels. It's okay if the price is higher."
"Okay, brother-in-law, let me ask you."
When they arrived at the banquet building, Wu Xuechao also mentioned that he wanted to buy more goods, but now Li Feng was very interested in doing farmhouse entertainment and was not willing to sell eels and local chickens in large quantities. "Then let me ask for you. If there is any goods, I will
Notify you as soon as possible."
My brother-in-law can buy an extra ten or twenty kilograms of eels in the banquet building. Let's talk about it. After returning to the rental house, Li Feng tidied up and turned on the air conditioner. He had a quick tea and then returned to the subdivided apartment in Sham Shui Po.
"I need to prepare for moving tomorrow."
On the table are some items that Guo Xin and Zhu Lin needed to buy for their move yesterday, and Li Feng planned to buy them all in the morning.
"There are so many things." Hong Kong Island is interesting. This national metropolis is sometimes very traditional.
There are a lot of things to pay attention to when moving. Originally, Li Feng was really not particular about this. When it comes to moving, he just needs to pack his things.
But it didn't work here. I went to deliver vegetables to my sister in Tianshuiwei, and Tuji mentioned about moving.
Li Li often told Li Feng to choose a good day. Her brother-in-law Zhang Zhengxiang even helped Li Feng hire someone to calculate the day and chose Saturday. According to the rules, moving must be on a certain day, a fixed day, or an excluding day.
When the sun is full, you cannot choose days such as the year is broken, the month is broken, the four are separated, and the four are absolute.
I thought that Li Li and his wife were more particular, but I never thought that Zhu Lin's family was also very particular. They even went to the temple to calculate the date. Fortunately, the day was determined to be Saturday. Guo Xin didn't know much about this at first.
, but Zhu Lin reminded her with one sentence.
The last time I moved, I didn't choose a date and met Li Feng on the fourth day of departure, which caused an accident. Guo Xin was concerned about this and asked someone specifically to ask about some details about moving. This time, I must handle it well.
"Oh, it's really troublesome."
Fortunately, both East and West are available in Sham Shui Po. When the two girls came back from leave at noon, Li Feng had almost bought everything.
"All the tools for worshiping the four corners are here."
To worship the four corners, you need to buy five portions of pork, candies, bean sprouts, tofu, peanuts, and fruits, as well as incense, candles, clothing, paper, etc. for moving in.
Seeing that the two people were checking very carefully, Li Feng said in a low voice that it was actually not necessary.
"Wynter, something happened to you last time because we didn't worship."
Guo Xin took Li Feng and gave him a portion. You must know that Guo Xin didn't believe in these things at first, but since Li Feng's accident, he went to the Third Prince Temple frequently. Now it has become a small feudal society, so he should give it a portion.
The two of them took out the buckets, rice buckets, brooms, dishes and chopsticks they bought on the road and pasted them with red paper.
"The rice bucket needs to be filled with rice." Looking at the empty rice bucket, Zhu Lin looked embarrassed.
"If you want to pack rice, it will be very heavy."
Li Feng didn't buy the rice. Fortunately, there was still some rice in the subdivided house and put it into the rice bucket. Zhu Lin took out a piece of red paper with Changman written on it and pasted it on the rice bucket. "My grandma went to Wong Tai Sin Temple to ask for this."
.”
"OK."
After everything was put on red paper and prepared, I realized that one thing was missing, matches. The older generation in Sijiao were very particular about not using lighters and matches. According to Li Feng's understanding, this may mean that the word "chai" means "chai" means making money.
"Finally everything is ready."
When the auspicious time was decided early the next morning, a family of three, Li Feng and Guo Xin, together with Zhu Lin, began to move. The furniture and other items in the room had been packed up early, and they were just waiting to move the clothes and luggage.
"Put the clay brazier first."
When worshiping the four corners, it is important to place them in the four corners and the center of the room. Li Feng mentioned five braziers. The four corners were placed first in the center and then clockwise. The five sacrificial offerings were pork, candy, peanuts, and buds.
Make tofu, put the pears in place, light the incense candle with a match and insert it on the pears.
Next, starting from the center, light the incense candles clockwise, and burn the special clothing paper for entering the house in the brazier. This ritual is to ask the unclean things in the house to leave.
After these are completed, rice buckets, water buckets, bowls and chopsticks come in. The bowls and chopsticks all need to be in even numbers.
The most outrageous thing is that Guo Xin and Zhu Lin even invited a door god. Well, Guo Xin still looked pious and chanted the words to bless Li Feng, which made Li Feng even want to cooperate. Once Li Feng didn't cooperate, Guo Xin might burst into tears.
Full face.
I had no choice but to follow the two people's fuss, and finally everything was tidied up at noon. It was time for Li Feng to perform, crabs, lobsters, eels, ribs, and vegetables brought from Sand Dune Village.
There was a table full of delicious food, and Zhu Lin, who had been hungry for a long time, hurriedly served rice to Guo Xin and Li Feng. Of course, she didn't forget her own. She was quite discerning, so she didn't have to worry about washing the dishes and pots from now on.
"Winter, your cooking skills are even better."
"Thank you."
Li Feng accepted Zhu Lin's compliments as a matter of course. The main reason was that Zhu Lin was now his creditor and owed Zhu Lin 95,000. Because Zhu Lin had previously borrowed 5,000 from Li Feng, and later borrowed 100,000. The two items were reduced, so it was natural that 95,000 was owed.
"Winter, don't finish loading the rice."
Seeing that Li Feng was about to put the rice into a bowl and put it in the refrigerator, Zhu Lin hurriedly stopped him. "My grandma said that you can't finish the first meal when you join the family, and you have to leave some money for the family."
"There's also this particular point."
Really, Hong Kong Island is not an international metropolis, and there are so many things to pay attention to when moving. Inevitably, Li Feng had to complain to Guo Xin, Zhu Lin’s mother knew so much, why didn’t she come over to help.
"Zhu Lin is a roommate."
"What happened to the shared apartment?"
"If you live in a shared apartment, everyone respects other roommates and does not bring family or friends over."
There is another saying, Li Fengxin said, this is quite good. "Rachel, help me." Zhu Lin took Guo Xin to clean her room, but Li Feng had no choice but to clean it alone because there were too many rooms.
Li Feng decided to separate from Guo Xin first because he was afraid of disturbing her rest by leaving early and coming home late.
"Rachel, I'm going to visit the stall owner later and I'll be back later." Li Feng casually spread the sheets and threw them away.
"Then you go ahead, we'll take care of the house."
Guo Xin still likes to clean up, especially the new home, but Zhu Lin feels a little tired. "Rachel, why don't we hire a Filipino maid?"
Zhu Lin, who was washing the dishes, felt that it was too hard for her and Guo Xin to do housework after getting off work.
"The Filipino maid needs more than 4,000 mosquitoes, and Winter needs to rent a stall. We need to save some money. I can do these things. If you are tired, go and take a rest."
"Filipino maid?" Li Feng was about to go out when he heard it and paused. "Please hire one sooner or later. Now go visit Uncle Tea first and don't let others take over the stall."
