The next day, New Year's Day, the villagers got up early in the morning to set off firecrackers.
Qinglong and Canglang stood up and circled the Gao Mansion with firecrackers before lighting them.
"Crackle! Crackle!" It kept making noises!
The children jumped up and cheered!
Xiaoli, Xiaocui, Xiaofang and Qingshuang got up to make dumplings.
Eating glutinous rice balls in the morning represents reunion.
When Gao Zhijun woke up, Liu Ningchu had already gotten up and returned to her yard.
Gao Zhijun washed up and changed into new clothes, a pomegranate skirt.
Then he changed his nephew Gao Yuxuan into a bright red wedding dress.
When I carried my nephew out, the mansion was already bustling with activity.
Today, the Sun family and the Huo family are not coming to dinner. We will celebrate the New Year later.
Gao Zhijun stood aside and watched everyone making dumplings.
She wanted to see the difference between the glutinous rice balls in ancient times and those in her previous life.
The glutinous rice balls here are called yuanzi. Most people use icing sugar as the filling, while wealthy families use red beans as the filling. Because sesame and peanuts are not common here, there are no sesame glutinous rice balls or peanut glutinous rice balls.
Qingshuang asked Qinglong to buy red beans for the red bean dumplings. She worked as a cook in a wealthy family and knew how to eat red bean dumplings.
There are two kinds of glutinous rice balls today, one is made of icing sugar and the other is made of red beans.
Soon, the dumplings were ready, and Mo Xue went to call people to eat them.
After eating the dumplings, Xiaoli and the others prepared lunch.
There are many candies, melon seeds, and red dates in the main hall.
Qinglong also prepared a basket of copper coins to give to children who came to pay New Year's greetings.
After Sun Meixue knew about it, she brought her husband Luo Minghu and daughter Luo Zilan to the main hall.
"Husband, daughter, if you see anything you like, just grab it into this big bag and we'll take it home to eat."
Kong Meixue pointed at the candies, melon seeds, red dates and fruits on display and said to Luo Minghu and his daughter.
"My lady, this is not good!"
Luo Minghu said with some embarrassment.
This is the home of my eldest sister-in-law's cousin. Inviting them here to celebrate the New Year is already a favor to my eldest sister-in-law.
These candies are prepared for the children in the village who come to pay New Year's greetings. It's okay if they just take a little, but it's a bit too much to put them in that bag.
That bag can hold more than ten pounds, and it's almost full.
"What's wrong with that? This is originally meant to be given to others, so why not give it to us? We are our own people, and the children in the village are outsiders. It wouldn't be a waste to give it to them."
Kong Meixue scolded Luo Minghu angrily. Her hands were not idle at all. She put the most expensive things in the box.
"But we are also guests here. This is not our home."
Luo Minghu still felt a little uncomfortable, after all, this was not his home.
They are the guests, and now they are taking over the hosts' place. That's not good!
"Are you stupid? She's my sister-in-law's cousin, so she's our cousin. A cousin's home, rounded up, is our home. Stop dawdling and pack your things quickly!"
Kong Meixue shamelessly scolded Luo Minghu.
She didn't feel embarrassed at all when she said it, but rather acted as if it was a matter of course. People like this are really weird.
Their daughter was not polite at all. She would pick up any fruit she liked and eat it, then take a few bites and throw it away, and then go to eat other fruits and candies. There were already several apples thrown on the ground.
"What are you doing?"
Qinglong and Moxue came over carrying a basket of copper coins. The scene they saw made their blood boil. Their faces turned black and they shouted angrily.
There were a few apples thrown on the ground, and the children were biting the candies here and there in the candy basket, their saliva flowing into the candy basket. The scene was too exciting and I couldn't bear to look at it directly.
There were two big ones, one of which was constantly packing candies, almost filling up a large bag. A man stood there in a state of confusion, not knowing what he was thinking.
The roar of Qinglong scared the three people inside.
The child was so scared that he burst into tears, and his saliva and tears flowed into the candy basket. It was even more irritating to the eyes. He didn't dare to look at it directly. It was so disgusting.
Qinglong and Moxue felt that they would never dare to eat candy again in their entire lives, and they were traumatized.
Luo Minghu was so frightened that his heart trembled. It was over. This time he was really embarrassed.
Kong Meixue was also startled, thinking that she had been caught by Gao Zhijun.
When she saw that it was two servants, her panic calmed down and she angrily said, "What are you yelling about, two servants? You scared my daughter. I want you to pay with your lives!"
When he saw the copper coins in the basket, his eyes lit up and he said greedily, "You two, take that basket of copper coins to me. They are mine."
Qinglong and Moxue exchanged a glance, sneered, and said, "Who the hell are you? How dare you tell us to do something? How dare you think these copper coins belong to you?"
"How dare you two servants scold me? Do you want to be sold? Who do you think you are? You are just two dogs of my cousin. You have to do whatever I tell you to do. If you don't listen, I will let my cousin sell you. The men will be sold to the mines as laborers, and the women will be sold to brothels as prostitutes, to be fucked by thousands of people."
Kong Meixue insulted Qinglong and Moxue like a shrew.
Mo Xue was so angry that he slapped Kong Meixue without hesitation, causing one side of Kong Meixue's face to swell up like a pig's head.
"If you can't speak, I don't mind cutting off your tongue and teaching you a lesson. Who do you think you are? You're just the younger sister of the young lady's cousin. How dare you speak so arrogantly here? You really don't know your identity."
Mo Xue showed no mercy and scolded Kong Meixue without any hesitation.
Kong Meixue, who was in pain from being beaten, sat on the ground and rolled around like a shrew, crying loudly.
