Rushing to the sea: I can see the prompts

Chapter 197

When Shui Wang and the others pulled a cart of fireworks back to the village, the whole village was shaken.

Not to mention the villagers, even the tourists who were preparing to celebrate the New Year here were surprised, followed by excitement and anticipation.

"How much do these fireworks cost?" someone asked.

Shui Wang got out of the car to brag to everyone.

"Stay away from smokers."

This is all understandable. If it is accidentally ignited, the consequences will be serious.

"Did you buy it?"

Shui Wang rolled his eyes: "How can we have so much money? Brother Hua spent half a million, and it will be released on New Year's Eve and the first night of the new year. Let's wait and see!"

The group grinned.

The happiest people are undoubtedly the children.

"It has to be Ah Hua! Five hundred thousand, this is not how you spend money."

"Fifty thousand, if you give it to me, I'll make a fortune."

"It's not dark yet, what are you dreaming about?"

……

Mother Zhang and others knew about it, so they just chatted a few words and didn't say much.

It seems that after a trip to the capital, things have become much more atmospheric.

In fact, the main reason is that Zhang Yaohua has made enough money recently, so much that they are a little frightened. If they don't spend a little, they don't feel secure.

"Place it over there at the primary school!" Zhang Yaohua said.

Who wouldn't be afraid if they were piled up in one's home? If something goes wrong, the whole building may be overturned.

The director personally selected a classroom and had people move it there. Then the doors and windows were sealed to prevent anyone from entering. After it was done, he warned everyone that no one was allowed to come near.

He also named a few people in particular.

"Director, we have corrected our evil ways! Don't keep holding on to us!" Shuiliang said in a very depressed tone.

Each time they were used as negative teaching materials.

How dare they make mistakes recently? There were so many village cadres in the village committee watching, my family members warned me repeatedly, and my uncle and other clan elders warned me.

How could they have the guts to act recklessly?
  It can be said that they have been keeping to themselves a lot recently.

"The best thing is to keep it up."

The next day, the twenty-ninth day of the year, is also New Year's Eve.

There are a lot of things to do on this day, such as posting couplets, worshiping gods and ancestors, etc.

In the past, when pigs were raised in the village, they would be killed on the [-]th day of the year, and there would be a crowd of people watching. But there is no say in whether it is bloody or not, even children will watch it.

When Zhang Yaohua was a child, he also liked to watch pigs being slaughtered and waited to eat pig-killing rice.

But now that pigs are no longer raised in the village, an important program is missing.

Zhang Yaohua mixed starch and boiling water into a paste and waited for the couplets to be pasted.

In the past, cassava flour was used, but in recent years, few people have grown cassava.

"More on the right side, it's almost done, okay." Zhang Yaohua stood below and looked at it.

The second brother and father stood on the ladder and posted the horizontal couplet "Welcome the Spring Festival and Bring the Blessings".

After the couplets were posted, Zhang’s father reminded him when his son opened the couplets on both sides: “The one above is the one on the left. The person who sells the couplets said so.”

Zhang Yaohua took a look and saw that it was wrong.

"Wrong, this is on the right side, ups and downs." Zhang Yaohua shook his head.

He still knows how to post couplets. Use the oblique tone at the end of the first line and the flat tone at the end of the second line.

This couplet is: Treasures from all directions come into your home, bringing you good luck all year round!

And what is placed on it is "good luck all year round", so this one must be posted on the right side of the door.

"People selling couplets will make mistakes?"

Zhang Yaowei: "Could my brother have made a mistake? They must have made a mistake."

Father Zhang glared at his second son, his wings were hard, right?

Zhang Yaohua smiled and said: "Dad! This one is really on the right side. Maybe they got it confused. It's not surprising."

have to! My son really knows better in this regard, and Lao Zhang stopped talking.

Then there is the doorkeeper.

The door god you buy is also very particular. It depends on how big your door is. Don’t buy one that is too small. Otherwise, it will look very uncoordinated. Furthermore, the door god is too small and it feels like it cannot suppress evil spirits.

There are many goalkeepers, the more classic ones are Qin Qiong, Yuchi Jingde, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, etc.

If your family is doing business, you can use Lucky Boy, Blessing Heavenly Official, Bangs Playing Golden Toad, Five-Way God of Wealth, Guan Yu, etc.

If your family is working as an official and pursuing an official career, it is best to choose a god of good fortune and a civil servant door god, such as Hai Rui and Bao Qingtian, as well as fortune, wealth, longevity, happiness, jue deer, bat, and BMW bottle saddle, which symbolize official integrity, peace, auspiciousness, and success. Lift.

There are also families who live in relatively remote areas and are prone to restlessness at home. They mainly include Qin Qiong, Yuchi Jingde, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, etc. They usually hold swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, axes, hooks and forks, showing a majestic and fierce image of suppressing evil spirits. It has the effect of suppressing monsters, exorcising evil spirits, and driving away disasters.

The door god is posted on the outermost door. If there is an entrance garden, it should be posted on the door of the entrance garden. If there is a courtyard, it should be posted outside the courtyard door.

Some people may ask, what if there is only one door?
  If the door is opened on one side or one side is very small, the door god should only be attached to the door on one side, and there should be a certain distance left on the left, right, and in the middle.

"Door God, don't stick to the wrong side." Zhang's father said.

Here, it is very taboo for the doorkeeper to stick to the wrong side.

For portraits of generals, Qin Qiong must be in the east and Chigong is in the west. For blessings, the portrait should be on the left to attract wealth and treasures on the right. If it is posted in the wrong position, it is called "posting the door god instead."

If the door god's portrait is posted in the wrong position, everything will go wrong in the coming year and you will be in a dilemma.

In fact, when sticking to the doorkeeper, just pay attention that the eyes of the doorkeepers on the left and right sides glance at each other towards the middle. If you stick it up and the doorkeeper's eyes look outward, it must be stuck upside down.

"I'll hang up the lantern."

Zhang Yaowu also bought six large lanterns to hang on both sides of the door of the villa on each floor.

They don't have the habit of hanging red lanterns. Zhang Yaowu bought them on his own initiative because he felt they looked good.

Zhang's father and Zhang's mother didn't say anything.

Hanging red lanterns is festive and prosperous, and there is nothing wrong with it.

Azhen was busy bathing Zhang Yuanhang and Xuanxuan and dressing them in new clothes.

After changing into new clothes, he also warned them: "Don't come back covered in mud, or I will beat you too during the Chinese New Year."

These little guys, if you don't warn them, they might go out for a wild run and come back as clay figures.

Even the four-eyed boy was rubbed once.

Now the four-eyed boy has grown up a lot and is not so cute anymore.

Zhang's mother was busy in the kitchen, killing chickens, etc. Later she would go to Tin Hau Temple to worship the gods. After worshiping the gods, she would have to worship the grandpa and the old grandpa when she came back.

"Don't run around. If you go to worship God later, you have to go." Mother Zhang shouted.

After preparing the ceremonial chicken, putting candies, biscuits, apples, citrus, etc. in the basket, along with tea, wine, firecrackers and a bunch of incense, the family sets off towards the Tin Hau Temple.

On the way, you can meet other villagers who share the same goal with the Zhang family.

From the Tin Hau Temple, the sound of firecrackers could be heard one after another.
