Chapter 730 Don't bite
After entering the family ancestral hall, Cui Yingying and Du Shiniang seemed to have upgraded one by one. Although they actually entered the family ancestral hall today, they just carried their children to worship their ancestors. They were only benefiting from their children, but they just held their children. But even so, they could not change their excitement.
At this time, they were like soldiers were awarded medals and local officials were personally welcomed by the emperor.
Especially Du Shiniang and a few concubines, today Li Chao entered their names into the genealogy in front of their ancestors and ancestors in front of them. It was written on the page of Li Chao, and indicated on it one by one whose surname, origin, which child he gave birth to.
In the genealogy of other families, they may have at least one concubine, and they may not even write the children they gave birth to in their names. However, Li Chao each wrote hundreds of words introductory, which were refined but detailed, especially their children, which were recorded in their names.
This made Caiwei and his concubines have their eyes shine with happiness. Their names are listed on the genealogy and they will definitely be able to enter the family cemetery in the future. For the name and share, their obsession with Li Chao imagined even more.
After leaving the clan ancestral hall, Li Chao felt that his family was harmonious.
"Eat dumplings!" The wives and concubines were still immersed in the glory of entering the clan's ancestral hall, but Li Chao was already thinking about eating dumplings.
On New Year's Eve, of course, you have to eat dumplings on the New Year's Eve.
I have already made a lot of dumplings at home, and I am not afraid of the dumplings being broken in winter.
However, today on New Year's Eve, Li Chao still likes to make some dumplings and cook dumplings during the New Year, which makes it more New Year's atmosphere. For the New Year, of course, you still have to have a New Year atmosphere.
Li Chao suggested that the whole family make dumplings together and everyone responded.
So everyone changed their clothes, washed their hands, and made dumplings together.
When they took out the best flour, Li Chao was responsible for sifting the flour, his father was responsible for kneading the noodles, Qi Niang and Cui Yingying were responsible for rolling the noodles, and Lianer and Laner were responsible for chopping the stuffing.
Several kinds of pork and leek fillings, three-fresh fillings, beef fillings, etc. have been prepared in total.
After the dumplings were rolled out and the filling was chopped, a group of ten people started to make dumplings together. It has to be said that a group of women at home are good at making dumplings. They not only make quick, but also make beautiful. They really make all kinds of flowers.
However, the two fathers and Li Chao in the family made dumplings, the one characteristic, is big and ugly.
"Let's make some money in the dumplings, and everyone will pay attention when eating."
Qi Niang smiled and said that this once lonely widow of the mansion soldier is now the imperial decree of the county and state. She had just given birth to a son for the Li family and looked more noble. It was difficult to associate the woman in front of her with bright clothes, rosy complexion and plump figure with the former Ke Qi Niang.
Cui Yingying brought one gold, silver and copper coins each.
"Wait." Li Chao called out several women, "The money is very dirty. If you want to make dumplings, you have to boil water first."
People nowadays know that a disease comes from their mouths, but they don’t know that money is actually the dirtiest. Countless people touch it, and there are countless bacteria on it.
Seeing Li Chao solemnly cook the money, several women were a little dissatisfied. Many people like to put their teeth in their mouths when they get valuable currency such as gold and silver.
"Don't bite, you don't know that the disease comes from the mouth. If the money is over 10,000 hands, it's full of bacteria. It's okay if the hand contacts it. If it enters the mouth, it's the most likely to get sick, but it's not careless."
In fact, Li Chao didn't like to make dumplings and put coins in it. When he was young, he used to spend the New Year at his grandmother's house, and he was too fooled by eating dumplings. At that time, he didn't know that there was such a custom, but when he was eating dumplings, he was having fun. He bit on the coins in the dumplings and knocked off half of his teeth.
Fortunately, I was still young at that time, and I would change my teeth if I had broken.
However, for Qi Niang and the others, putting coins in the dumplings during the New Year is actually a way to send blessings. Whoever eats them will win the lottery, which means you will have good luck throughout the year.
After making dumplings, they started cooking dumplings. Li Chao and his father washed the flour on their bodies, and then roasted them around the fire and chatted. Seeing the family busy, it was an extremely comfortable feeling.
The men are working hard outside, just to get the peace and comfort after returning home?
"Lian'er will go out next year." The father looked at the increasingly graceful Lian'er and said with a smile.
Li Chao looked at Lian'er. In fact, she seemed to her girl very young. In the future, Lian'er was only the age of taking the high school entrance exam next year. In later generations, she had just finished her junior high school life and entered high school. She became a big girl, but she was still very early to get married.
But in this era, girls who graduated from elementary school can get engaged and get married and have children after junior high school. Especially after the war, the court increasingly advocated that the people of the world get married and have children early, and even issued many laws. For example, if they are over the age of not getting married, the court will send official media to serve as media for it, and the official will directly match the marriage.
Generally, you will be given a blind date three times. If you are not satisfied with the three objects introduced by the official, then you will never choose the fourth one. You will have to accept which one you choose. Otherwise, you will have to pay more taxes and fines, and the punishment is still very severe.
"Does Sister Lian like Wei's family?" Li Chao asked his father in a low voice.
"There is no reason why a girl's family is to point fingers at marriage? No one is not the matchmaker of her parents' orders." My father is a very old-fashioned person and has always been very traditional about marriage. But what my father said is actually very reasonable. People from different eras have different values.
Li Chao, who came from later generations, had many concepts of free love and marriage, and they were not deep on the concept of family background. But for people in this era, where did they come from the concept of free love and marriage? Different eras, different lifestyles, and lifestyles in this era mean that it is difficult to have free love and marriage.
The higher the family, the less they come into contact with other men, and they usually come into contact with their fathers and brothers, or cousins from relatives and friends.
They don’t go out to study, they are not as good as family members, nor do they come out to meet male guests. They occasionally interact with families or relatives of the family, and they often communicate with female relatives, and their social circles are even narrower and almost none.
Let them fall in love freely? Who do they fall in love?
