The villa reveals unprecedented joy and truly has a strong atmosphere of New Year.
The palace maids gave the dough cake, a plate of stove cake, a pack of sesame candy, a handful of forage, and a kill-fried rooster: the stove cake is used to fill the hunger on the way back and forth to the Heavenly Palace; the sesame candy is used to stick to the stove.
The prince’s mouth; the rooster is the “Tianma” given to the Kitchen God; as for the fodder, it is naturally fed to the “Tianma”.
At dusk, a sacrifice to the kitchen begins.
The ancients said that men do not worship the moon, and women do not worship the kitchen.
Because the Kitchen God is the head of the family, he symbolizes a powerful patriarchal parent.
But Emperor Hongwen happily brought Fangfei to the kitchen sacrifice. He first offered the stove cakes, sesame candies, roosters and other items in front of the stove official statue, and then lit three incense sticks in front of the statue.
Emperor Hongwen personally served the sugar bowl and posted the Kitchen God, asking the Kitchen God to "go to heaven to say good things, return to the palace to bring good luck", and respect it with glue-tooth candy so that the Kitchen God's teeth would stick to it, "I ate someone's mouth was short."
Of course it is difficult to say bad things.
The palace maids witnessed such a grand occasion for the first time, and they were all very happy.
After the kitchen sacrifice, the sesame candy was offered, and a year of reward began.
The palace maids knelt on the ground to thank them, unable to believe their gaze.
Emperor Hongwen was never a luxurious emperor, but his rewards truly showed the temperament of the Tian family, so that the palace people almost dared not accept it.
The excitement is finally over.
The room was quiet.
The fresh fruits on the table are particularly eye-catching: bright peaches, cantaloupe melons, and pears.
He picked up the knife, cut a cantaloupe, and smiled and said, "Fangfei, this is what I sent out to find. It's really hard to find. When I got it back, it was mostly broken. I kept it in a thick frozen box all the way.
I need these. It will be better when spring begins, and the weather is warmer and there will be more fruits..."
She was holding a slice of cantaloupe, but she couldn't eat it.
