A leisurely life that begins with the possession of a game character

Chapter 42
"If losing is painful, are you afraid of paying for it..." Zhang Lan drove her car on the viaduct in the shopping mall. She really didn't expect that the viaduct would be blocked, so she amplified the music in the car and hummed along with the song.

"Many things are only seen clearly later, but I have already..." Just as Zhang Lan was holding the steering wheel and shaking his head, the phone suddenly rang. He stopped the music and saw that it was Qin Yongjun.

"Where are you? Can you accompany me to a birthday party?" Qin Yongjun said straight to the point.

"We are in the shopping mall now. We are going home. There is a traffic jam on the Nongong Road elevated road. We are about to leave the city. When?" Zhang Lan also answered readily.

"You happen to be in the shopping mall. I'll send you a seat in a minute. You can wait for me somewhere. I'll go to you and we'll go to Xiangshi together. The banquet will be held in Xiangshi tonight."

"Okay, no problem." Zhang Lan agreed.Xiangshi is between Shangshi and Zhang Lan's Canghe City, but I haven't heard of any big shots in Xiangshi. No, it was because I wasn't sensitive enough before, and ordinary people really didn't pay attention to any big shots.

It was already after five o'clock in the afternoon when she saw Qin Yongjun. She drove a red Wrangler, which could be seen to have been modified.Seeing Zhang Lan's car approaching, she rolled down the window and waved to him, pointed to the back of the car, and the two cars drove towards Xiangshi one after the other.

Zhang Lan followed Qin Yongjun's car and drove along the embankment to the entrance of a farm and stopped.Zhang Lan didn't expect that there was a farm deep in the embankment while driving along.Following the security guard's guidance, he found a place to park, locked the car and walked in the farm with Qin Yongjun.Looking at the buildings still under construction on both sides, Zhang Lan asked curiously: "Is this private?"

"This is an ecological agriculture demonstration park, and it will be open to tourism in the future." Follow the guidance of the road signs and walk along the built forest trails. It is close to the Yellow River Scenic Area, and the air environment is refreshing.

Arriving at the door of a building, Qin Yongjun signed the sign-in sheet and walked in with Zhang Lan on his arm.As soon as you enter the door, you will see a huge hall filled with tables.After a quick glance, Zhang Lan estimated that there were nearly two hundred tables, which was truly spectacular.

Qin Yongjun led Zhang Lan through the hall, spoke to the security personnel standing at the door, and then walked out of the hall, following the security guards for another ten minutes.When they reached a vegetable garden intersection surrounded by a bamboo fence, they stopped and motioned for the two of them to move forward on their own.

Passing through the vegetable garden path surrounded by bamboo fences, there is a row of ordinary red brick courtyards in front of them. The door of one of the small courtyards is open, and two people are standing at the door.

As Qin Yongjun and Zhang Lan approached, one of them waved to Qin Yongjun: "Sister Jun, here." While waving his hand, he ran towards Qin Yongjun.

When I walked in, I saw a young girl in her twenties, with a face full of collagen.Wearing a loose sweatshirt, he is full of sports style.He ran over and took Qin Yongjun's arm, saying something unknown in Qin Yongjun's ear, laughing while talking.

Qin Yongjun reached out and patted her: "Okay, Xiaoyu. Let me introduce to you, this is your brother-in-law Zhang Lan. Zhang Lan, this is Liu Xiaoyu, my cousin, you can just call her Xiaoyu."

Zhang Lan smiled and gestured: "Hello Xiaoyu, I am Zhang Lan."

Liu Xiaoyu tilted her head and smiled at Zhang Lan: "Hello, brother-in-law." She turned around and continued to whisper in Qin Yongjun's ear, and Zhang Lan didn't care.After entering the courtyard, although it was late autumn, the courtyard was as warm as spring. Looking at the unobstructed sky, Zhang Lan guessed that it must be a large floor heater.Bypassing the screen wall, the main door of the house is now wide open, revealing a spacious living room.

At this time, many people were sitting or standing in the living room. In the middle of the living room, there was a round carpet with a red cloth on it. On the red cloth were abacus, wishful thinking, seals, books, etc. Such a gadget, Zhang Lan knew at a glance that it was to catch Zhou.

When a baby is one year old, it was called "zhou" in ancient times and now it is called "one year old".Zhuzhou is also called Shier, Shizhou, and birthday.It is a very important ritual in the first-year ceremony. It was first seen in the ancient customs of the Southern and Northern Dynasties and spread among the people.

This custom has been circulating among the people for a long time. It is a ceremony held when a child is one year old to predict his future and temperament. It is also a way to celebrate the first birthday anniversary.It is the same traditional birth etiquette as the birth announcement, three-day baptism, full-moon ceremony, hundred-day ceremony, etc. The core of it is the wish for the continuation, success and prosperity of life.

When he walked into the hall, Zhang Lan saw it more clearly.It seems that it has just begun. In the cubicle next to the hall, through the Baibao Pavilion, you can see a silver-haired old woman wearing a nappy suit for a chubby little baby.

After dressing up, hand the child to the father who should be standing next to him. The father holds the child and puts it on a small chair, with a prepared wash basin next to it.Put water, green onions, apples, and rice into a basin and wash your hands.I washed it back and forth three times, and said softly while washing it: the first hand is smart and smart, the second hand is safe and rich, and the third hand is rich and everything goes smoothly.

Then it was time to comb my hair.The child's mother held a safety comb on the child's head while gesticulating and singing: One comb will bring wisdom, and the baby will be smart and cute; two combs will bring wealth, and the baby's wealth will roll in; three combs will make the baby smart, and whatever he wants will become a treasure; four combs will make the baby a treasure; Good popularity, lots of friends; five combs, good health, no illness and disaster, early career; six combs, number one, prosperity and wealth for eternity; seven combs, eight combs, a healthy, happy and long-lived baby.

Afterwards, the child's mother picked up the child, and the child's grandfather held up a gong and shouted while knocking: One knock will open wisdom, the second knock will bring success, and the third knock will bring prosperity.Following the words, the mother came out of the cubicle holding her child.

After coming out, he put the child on the ground. With the encouragement of his mother, the child, who was wearing a red antenatal care uniform, staggered towards the center of the carpet. When he got there, he was a little at a loss. He turned his head and looked at his mother with big eyes. , and looked at the adults surrounding him with a confused expression.

"Twist over and grab one!"

"Look at the ground and grab anyone!"

"The one on the side, the one on the side is fun!"

The person next to him gave some guidance, and the little boy seemed to understand something. He bent down and reached out to grab a small golden abacus, but he failed to grasp it properly and sat down.

The little boy waved the abacus in his hand twice, as if he felt uncomfortable holding it, and threw the abacus aside.He looked around and seemed to be attracted by something.He turned over and crawled forward two steps, picked up a jade Ruyi, put it in his mouth and started to bite it.
