Mr. Li nodded in satisfaction and then stood up: "Let's go and eat."

Zhou Dalang still felt a little unreal at this moment, and followed Mr. Li to the next door in a daze.

When Li Xiaomei came out of the kitchen carrying the dishes, she saw the Zhou brothers following behind her father.

Li Xiaomei felt shy and a little flustered. She quickly brought the braised pork in her hand to the main room and hid in the kitchen to busy herself.

The Li family was very relaxed when they saw the Zhou brothers. Li Erlang arranged for the two brothers to sit down, and everyone gathered together, making it quite lively.

Today's meal is still very rich, with stewed lamb, braised pork, fried cabbage, egg drop soup, and Li Yan also specially steamed eggs for the children.

At first, the two Zhou brothers were a little reserved, but later when they saw that no one was paying too much attention to them, they were able to relax.

"We have been here for two or three days. After the third day of bathing is over tomorrow, we will go back!" Lin An said to Li Erlang.

"Uncle, please stay for two more days. Wan'er will be happy with you here!" Li Erlang persuaded.

"The private school has been closed for quite some time. I have to go back and take a look. I'll let your sister-in-law stay for a few more days!"

When Mrs. Guo heard that her husband was going back, she couldn't bear to let him go home alone, so she also said she wanted to go back: "I'll come a few more times after some time!"

Since that was what he said, Li Erlang didn't want to keep him any longer and prepared to prepare some things for his uncle to take back tomorrow.

During the few days since Guo came, she has helped with a lot of chores, taken care of his wife's food, clothing, and daily life, and kept the two little kids clean and tidy. Li Erlang is very grateful for this.

After lunch, everyone dispersed and Wu took Li Yan to prepare the things needed for the third day of the lunar year.

When it comes to the third day of the lunar year, mugwort is an indispensable ingredient. It can be found in fields and on hilltops and is very common.

Because her daughter-in-law was about to give birth, Mrs. Wu collected the mugwort leaves early, dried them at home, and stored them. She then took them out and gave them to her granddaughter to use to boil bath water the next day.

Then they prepared wooden basins, wedding eggs, peanuts, red ropes, onions, garlic, etc.

Li Yan didn't understand any of this, and curiously followed Wu, preparing the supplies for the third day of her husband's bath.

At noon the next day, Wang was invited to give the two babies a bath.

Seeing Wang coming, Wu immediately stepped forward to greet her with a smile: "Oh, please come in, please come in, thank you for coming all the way here!"

"I've been looking forward to such a happy event!" Wang was also interested in making friends with the Li family, and wanted to take the opportunity to find out more about the boy from the Lin family. After all, her granddaughter was not young anymore, and she really couldn't delay any longer.

At this time, everyone filled the boiled mugwort water in wooden basins and carried it over.

"The weather is still very cold now, so let's just go through the motions and not let the child catch a cold!" Wang suggested.

After hearing this, Mrs. Wu nodded repeatedly: "Oh, sister, what you said is exactly what I want!"

Wu first poured the peanuts, onions and garlic prepared yesterday into the basin, and then used red string to surround the basin, which was called "surrounding the shed" here.

Then, according to the seniority, put a small spoonful of water into the wooden basin, and then put some copper coins, which is called "adding basin".

Then Wang held the little guy and began to wash him. While washing him, she stirred the water in the basin and said festive words to bless the child.

After wiping the wedding cake, I used the wedding cake egg I prepared yesterday to rub the child's forehead to prevent sores on the head.

Finally, she gently patted the two children's bodies a few times with the prepared green onion whites, chanting blessings such as "One dozen for intelligence, two dozen for cleverness" and "

Because they were worried about the children catching a cold, the process was quite quick. During this period, the two children were quite cooperative. When Hu Niu was being washed, she only hummed a few times in dissatisfaction, and Hu Tou didn't even hum. The third-day bathing ceremony ended smoothly.

After it was over, everyone was chatting and laughing in the main room, and Wang followed into the room to take a look at Lin.

"I think you look good!" Wang said with a smile.

Mrs. Lin was very happy to see Aunt Wang. She wanted to test her aunt's opinion today!
