At the Gu family dinner table
"Brother, why do you have such a bad face when you come back? Who provoked you?" Gu Jiarong asked curiously.
Hearing her daughter's words, Gu's mother glanced at her son's stinky face in confusion. She was indeed angry. Was this because she was angry?
"What happened to Yu'er? I see that you have been in a bad mood for several days. But is there anything that doesn't go well with you? Tell me and mother will give you some advice."
Although Father Gu didn't speak, he looked at him.
That means waiting for him to speak.
Gu Yuning took a few bites of rice randomly:
"Father, mother, I still don't want to marry the daughter of the Fu family.
Call off the engagement with their family!
Today I saw the daughter of the Fu family at the entrance of the college. She was staring at Huo Ruihua, the person she was engaged to in the original countryside.
I passed her and she didn't even notice.
I can't bear this kind of shame and humiliation.
I couldn't swallow this uncooked meal. "
"Brother, you are such a miserable man. You were cuckolded before you got married. Break off the engagement. The biological daughter of the Fu family looks like that and looks at other people's men in front of my brother. You must break off."
Gu Jiarong obviously saw the excitement and didn't take it too seriously, so she even stabbed him in the face.
For the first time, Gu Yuning's temper was aroused, and his face became darker.
"If you don't break off the engagement, you marry her. Anyway, I won't marry that kind of woman."
Gu Jiarong applauded hurriedly and praised: "Brother, you finally took the courage and broke off the engagement. That kind of woman is not worthy of my brother."
"Sir, what do you say? If you break off the engagement after Yu'er passes the provincial examination, your reputation will be much worse. At that time, it will also affect your child's future, and it will be difficult to break off."
Mr. Gu thought for a while and then slowly said:
"I will consider this matter. For Xiaoyu's future, it is necessary to cancel the marriage.
Something happened to the Fu family today, which is really not suitable for being an in-law. "
"Okay, sir, let's cancel this marriage together when you have a rest. This matter can't be delayed any longer." Gu's mother agreed.
The matter was settled like this, and Gu Yuning finally breathed a sigh of relief.
~~~~~~
The Spring Festival will be celebrated in a few days. This is a very traditional festival.
The Spring Festival means the beginning of the Lunar New Year, that is, the beginning of a new life cycle. People believe that with the arrival of the New Year, the misfortune and bad luck of the past year will end, and the new year will bring new hope, good luck and success.
The Spring Festival also means reunion and family affection:
The Spring Festival is a time for family reunions. No matter where people are, they will try their best to go home and spend this important holiday with their families. This reunion symbolizes the warmth of family and the importance of family ties.
Overall, the Spring Festival is a festival full of hope, family warmth and traditional culture.
It is a festival that everyone attaches great importance to.
This caused Fu Ziya to become busy.
Enough to buy New Year's goods, buy gifts for everyone and prepare new clothes.
Sweeping Dust: Before the festival, families will do a general cleaning to sweep away the bad luck of the old year and welcome the good luck of the new year.
Early in the morning on New Year's Day, everyone was busy.
Paste Spring Festival couplets and window grilles: People will paste red Spring Festival couplets on door frames and paper-cut window grilles on windows to add to the festive atmosphere.
Hang lanterns and arrange New Year’s goods: Red lanterns are hung at home and decorated with various New Year’s goods such as candies, nuts and fruits.
On New Year's Eve, everyone has a reunion dinner together, which is the most important dinner of the year.
Everyone is sitting together. Looking at the dumplings of different sizes.
"That's what I made." The little boy said, pointing to the dumpling that looked a bit like a little white rabbit.
"This is what I made." Xiao Lao San pointed at a dumpling that looked like a steamed bun and said in a sweet voice.
After a year of communicating with everyone, Xiaolaosan became more and more fluent in her speech.
In the past, Huo Ruihua was worried that Lingling would really become mute.
The little boss made the most beautiful dumplings, and he actually made a tiger.
No matter how mature he is, he always has a smile on his face on days like this.
Fu Ziya prepared a big red envelope for everyone:
“Hopefully we will get better and better next year! The children are getting smarter and smarter!
Xiaoqing and Xiaohong can find their husbands, and Xiaowen can find the person of his dreams.
If you have someone you like, please tell me and I will help prepare the dowry and bride price.
My husband, you will be the first to pass the provincial examination this year! I am becoming more and more beautiful."
Xiaohong got the bulging red envelope and her eyes were red.
She originally wanted to die, but she didn't expect to have such a good life.
Xiaoqing and Xiaowen's eyes were red.
The little boss also held the red envelope tightly with his hand.
There turned out to be ten taels of silver notes inside.
How could he have received such lucky money in previous years?
With their aunt here, they can be fed, clothed and studied, and no one will think they are drags.
We wrapped a total of six copper plates in the dumplings and placed them inside.
This is also the custom of ancient people. It is said that as long as you eat one, good luck will roll in in the coming year.
Fu Ziya didn't expect to eat one dumpling after picking it up, and ate several in a row.
She herself was confused, and the others also didn't expect Fu Ziya's luck to be so good.
Everyone laughed happily at the New Year's Eve dinner.
Then comes the part of setting off fireworks.
Fu Ziya looked at the fireworks blooming in the sky and felt the lively atmosphere, but she still felt lonely.
It has been almost a year since she came into this world.
This year she almost regarded herself as an ancient person.
Huo Ruihua came to her and hugged her from behind: "Madam, what are you thinking about?"
Fu Ziya curled her body into his arms for warmth: "Mr. sir, it's been a year. Time flies so fast. We have been together for almost a year."
Huo Ruihua hugged her gently and whispered:
"We still have many, many years to go, madam, do you have any wishes now?
You can make a wish to me and I will try my best to help you realize it.
This year’s Spring Festival turned out to be so perfect for me.
The Chinese New Year is much more festive than before.
I feel very happy to have my wife here! "
Fu Ziya turned around and described his handsome features: "My lord, I only hope that we can have this day every year!"
"I will definitely do it, madam, nothing can separate us. We have this day every year!" Huo Ruihua hugged her more tightly.
Fu Ziya watched the three little ones setting off firecrackers along with Xiao Wen and the others. They all smiled broadly, with their mouths wide open.
Happy New Year.
The last step is to stay up late on New Year's Eve.
Everyone stays up all night around the stove to welcome the New Year.
The three children fell asleep early.
A few adults were left there to continue watching the New Year's Eve, and Fu Ziya was bored playing leaf cards with everyone.
Since few people knew how to do it, Fu Ziya explained the rules to everyone.
It ended with everyone's faces covered with notes.
