Since Huang Erniu's family moved out, Huang Jingjing also moved out of Old Lady Huang's room.
Huang Erniu's family's house was given to Huang Jingjing as her boudoir.
Therefore, Mrs. Huang lives alone in her room.
With so many people coming today, it was natural for Old Mrs. Huang to help greet them.
There were more than ten people coming from Chen Jingui's parents' home alone.
Chen Jingui's father died early, but her mother Cao Liangzhi, eldest brother Chen You, second brother Chen Xuan, eldest sister-in-law Ruan Xiaozhu and her son Chen Liang, second sister-in-law Zhu Zhaodi and her daughter Chen Qiaoer, and several uncles and aunts all came.
In her previous life, because Old Lady Huang disliked the eldest wife’s family, she also disliked Chen Jingui’s family.
But now, she seemed happier than Chen Jingui.
Her hearty laughter could be heard throughout the yard.
Huang Dalong quietly asked Chen Jingui, "Will my uncle and aunt come?"
Old Mrs. Huang looked indifferent, "They didn't even send wedding cakes, why would they come? I hope they never come."
She has no feelings for her mother's family.
When her mother was still alive, she treated her as a tool to help her brother and sister-in-law.
Her brother and sister-in-law also treated her as a cash cow and a bloodsuckers.
Later, because their family needed to support Huang Youwei's studies, Mrs. Huang went to her parents' home to borrow money, but she was not only kicked out but also beaten.
Compared with Tao Chunhua's parents' home, it is exactly the same.
But Old Mrs. Huang is more intelligent than Tao Chunhua.
After this incident, she no longer cared about her parents' home. Her family also felt that she had no benefits to gain and stopped interacting with her.
Logically, she should have announced the good news to her mother's family since she had her first grandson, but Old Mrs. Huang simply ignored it.
People like Huang Dalong who are willing to sacrifice will basically not understand.
Old Mrs. Huang asked her to help organize the things sent by relatives and neighbors and put them in her room.
This is to avoid too many people getting involved and making things difficult to deal with.
When she entered the room, she saw that it was in a mess.
Fortunately, she had storage space, and she hid the silver and valuables in it.
But some of the copper coins that were reserved for pocket money were all stolen.
Also, a silver hairpin she had placed in her dressing box was missing.
Huang Youlong hurriedly asked if the silver in the house was still there. Old Mrs. Huang was not worried. She breathed a sigh of relief, saying that only a few coins and a silver hairpin were lost.
Although the lost property was not much, Old Mrs. Huang did not intend to let it go easily.
But there were too many people at home today, not only relatives but also neighbors.
Old Mrs. Huang directly excluded the child.
Because the thief had a clear goal, he only took the money and nothing else.
She believed that neither the villagers nor Chen Jingui's family would do this, so who would it be?
Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared in her mind.
Just now, when she was in Chen Jingui's room, she vaguely saw a person through the window.
Logically, this person shouldn't be here.
You shouldn't come quietly and leave quietly.
But there were a lot of people around at the time, so she didn't think much about it and thought she was seeing things.
For this reason, she privately consulted her third aunt.
And the third aunt really saw that person.
That's right, the target is locked directly.
But Old Mrs. Huang did not continue to make it public, but secretly came up with an idea in her mind.
"Third Aunt, please help prepare the things for the heaven sacrifice."
Today is Xiaobao’s full moon, and according to convention, it is necessary to offer sacrifices to the gods.
Pray to God to bless the child to grow up healthy and safe.
But this kind of ceremony is usually held by the wealthy families in the town, while children in the countryside simply kneel down to the ground.
Old Mrs. Huang was willing to hold a ceremony for Xiaobao to prove that Xiaobao was the treasure of the whole family.
Soon, the three animals for the heaven sacrifice were ready, and everyone went to the yard to watch.
The ceremony of offering sacrifice to heaven was not complicated. After the three animals were placed, Huang Dalong raised three incense sticks.
Old Mrs. Huang held Xiaobao in her arms and knelt behind him, while Chen Jingui and Huang Jingjing also knelt behind him.
Then Huang Dalong held three incense sticks in his hand and kowtowed with his family. After the worship, he inserted the incense into the incense burner.
Ceremony.
But afterwards, copper coins are usually given to the child as a blessing.
These blessed copper coins will be sent to nearby temples as donations to the temples.
After worshipping the Queen, Old Lady Huang handed the little treasure in her hand to Chen Jingui.
When Old Lady Huang opened the small box she had prepared in advance, she said in panic, "Where's the money? The silver I brought to bless Xiaobao is gone!"
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but start talking about it.
Old Mrs. Huang cleared her throat and said, "Many people came to support me today and gave me face. I am deeply sorry for posting such a thing."
Someone shouted from below: "Aunt, this is not your fault. If you want to blame someone, blame that thief."
Old Lady Huang said: "If it was just ordinary silver, it would be fine, but the money lost was the silver that blessed Xiaobao, and it will be sent to the temple for worship later!"
She paused as she spoke, "So, this matter is of great importance to Xiaobao, and he must get it back!"
As soon as Mrs. Huang finished speaking, everyone in the room echoed her.
Chen Jingui's family had already started asking about their own children quietly, and they were relieved when they learned that neither of the two children had taken anything.
Aunt Hua suddenly asked, "Don't you know the art of divination?"
Ever since Aunt Hua turned over a new leaf and started working for Grandma Huang, the family's conditions have improved significantly.
She used to have to steal vegetables, but now she can go to the town to buy some meat every now and then.
Even her daughter, who had not returned to her parents' home for several years after getting married, was willing to bring her children back to visit her.
Therefore, she is now the most loyal person around Old Lady Huang.
The fact that Old Lady Huang could tell fortunes originated from the time when Aunt Hua stole her pumpkin, and she used the "divination technique" to find Aunt Hua out.
This time, she originally thought so, and Aunt Hua happened to bring it up first.
She glanced at Aunt Hua and nodded, "Okay, since Aunt Hua said so, I'll do some divination."
The scene was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Old Mrs. Huang lit a stick of incense and bowed respectfully towards the four directions of east, south, west and north.
He was muttering to himself.
After inserting the incense into the incense burner, she took out a few copper coins and placed them on the table.
"Please ask the Immortal!"
With just one sentence, everyone in the audience knelt down.
In the village, inviting the gods to worship is the most sacred ritual and no one dares to disrespect it.
Third Aunt has already caught the largest rooster in the house.
Kill a chicken and take its blood in front of everyone.
Afterwards, Old Lady Huang poured the bowl of chicken blood onto the ground, then knelt in front of the chicken blood and muttered something.
The next moment, a miracle happened.
