Chapter 242 Hairpin
Today is National Day, and it is also Tang Xin's birthday. After today, Tang Xin will be 15 years old.
When Tang Xin got up in the morning, Tang's mother had already prepared dinner. Tang's father, Tang's mother and brother Zhanbo were waiting in the living room early. Tang’s mother brought her a bowl of longevity noodles with two poached eggs on top.
"Happy birthday, sugar baby." Tang's mother said to Tang Xin.
"Happy birthday, sugar baby." Dad Tang and brother Zhan Bo also said at the same time.
"Thank you, mom, dad, and brother." Tang Xin looked at the relatives in front of her with emotion. This was her favorite family member.
"Okay, Tangbao, eat the noodles first, otherwise they will become lumpy if left out for too long." Tang's father asked Tang Xin to eat first.
Tang's mother glanced at Tang's father. Tang's father understood and turned back to the room. After a while, he brought a rectangular box over.
Tang's mother took it, looked at Tang Xin with a smile, and handed the box to Tang Xin.
"Sugar baby, this is your birthday gift from your parents."
Tang Xin quickly put down her chopsticks and took the box handed over by Tang's mother.
"Thank you, Mom and Dad, what is this?"
"Don't you know it when you open it?" Tang Ma said with a smile.
Brother Zhan Bo was also very curious. He leaned over and said, "Yes, Tangbao, please open it and see what's inside."
Tang Xin nodded and opened the box carefully, only to find a suet-fat white jade hairpin inside, which was exquisitely made. Tang Xin looked at Tang's mother in surprise.
"Mom, this is a hairpin. Is it for me?"
"Yes, Tangbao, you will be 15 years old today. In ancient times, there was a saying that a girl's hairpins at fifteen represent a change in status. After a girl gets her hairpins, she will be an adult. People who pay attention to etiquette will give their own money. Girls hold haircut ceremonies." Father Tang paused as he spoke.
"Although we don't like this now, my mother and I also want to give you a birthday that is different from others, so we chose this hairpin to give to you. We hope that you will have a smooth and safe life in the future."
"Yes, sugar baby, mom and dad want you to know that you will always be our most precious child." Tang's mother's eyes were slightly moist, her little baby has grown up.
"You are also my most precious sister." Brother Zhanbo also emphasized.
"I know, parents and brother, thank you. As your daughter and sister, I am really happy." Tang Xin stood up and hugged Tang's mother and Tang's father, and her brother Zhanbo also came over and held them in his arms. .
The family of four hugged each other for a long time, and Tang Xin really felt that she was the happiest person in the world.
After the meal, Tang's mother specially combed Tang Xin's hair into a bun, and then solemnly inserted the hairpin into Tang Xin's head. Through this small ceremony, she showed that the Tang family's daughter had grown up.
This was a secret that belonged to their family of four. In the years to come, Tang Xin would often think of this matter, and every time she remembered it, she would feel full of happiness.
Tang Xin was deeply moved by the sense of ceremony given by her parents. She was also very lucky in this life, having a family who loved her deeply.
Seeing that it was getting late, the family of four quickly packed up and headed back to their old home.
It was already past 10 o'clock when we arrived at the old house. Tang Ma hugged Tianci for a while and then hurriedly went to the kitchen to help.
The second uncle rarely worked overtime, and he was playing chess leisurely with his grandfather. Father Tang saw this and hurriedly came over, taking over his cousin's duties and serving tea at the side.
Seeing Father Tang passing by, the eldest cousin retreated and gathered with his brothers. Several people also started chatting about their work.
The eldest cousin and the second cousin both went to work, and the third cousin also came back for a rare occasion. They gathered together to talk about interpersonal relationships at work to the fourth cousin, a newcomer who had just started working, and his brother Zhanbo, a student who was about to go to work. Socializing and working together, so that they can learn more about the work situation and better integrate into the work.
"It's a pity that Zhan Feng is not at home. If he were here, he could just talk to the three of you." The second cousin said with regret.
"I don't think it's necessary. Second brother, think about it. Zhanfeng has already decided to go back to Huada and continue his graduate studies, so he won't be able to work in a short period of time." The fourth cousin said, My brother has been working for almost a month, so he nodded frequently to what his second cousin said. These are all knowledge.
The second cousin thought about the situation of his fourth child. He was obviously naughty and mischievous when he was young, but he has become more and more serious over the years, looking like an old scholar. He shook his head and didn't think about it anymore. Let's forget it. He had his own life plan.
After the second cousin finished speaking, the eldest cousin started talking, and then the third cousin. The brothers told all they could about their experiences and interesting stories at work. Tang Xin and his brothers were stunned for a moment.
Sure enough, no matter what time, no matter what era, there are good people everywhere, and of course there are also bad people.
As they talked, several people brought the topic back to the second cousin. Don't think they didn't know that the second cousin had been avoiding the topic. They all remembered it.
The second cousin looked at everyone's interested eyes and sighed helplessly. These people are really, really trustworthy.
So he simply took the initiative and said, "Don't look at me. I don't know the specific situation. I have been studying this week and came here directly this morning. I haven't had time to tell my mother about it, so even if I don’t even know if you can tell me how to show the flowers.” The second cousin said, showing his hands to them. In fact, he also wanted to know if it was okay.
After hearing what his second cousin said, Tang Xin immediately turned his attention to his fourth cousin.
When the fourth cousin saw Tang Xin looking at him, he immediately raised his hands, "Don't ask me, I don't know either. Think about it, can my mother tell me about this?"
Yes, this is another unknown person. Tang Xin really wanted to give her fourth cousin a look.
"Looks like I have to ask Second Aunt, you guys wait for me to find out the news." Tang Xin said as she got up and walked to the kitchen.
Before I even got to the kitchen, I ran into the lobby sister-in-law who had just finished feeding Tianci. "Tang Xin, come to sister-in-law quickly. I have something for you."
Hearing this, Tang Xin turned around and walked towards the lobby sister-in-law.
She clapped her hands to Tianci and said, "Come to Tianci and let Auntie give you a hug. I haven't seen you for two weeks. Do you miss Auntie?"
Tianci smiled stupidly at Tang Xin, showing his two baby teeth. Tang Xin looked at Tang Xin with curiosity, and went crazy while hugging Tianci, making Tianci giggle.
Inviting the cousin and the others to come around, the sister-in-law asked the cousin to take Tianci away and let her father and uncles watch for a while while she pulled Tang Xin into the room.
"Sugar baby, today is your birthday. This is the first time my sister-in-law celebrates your birthday, so she specially bought you a skirt." As she said this, the sister-in-law took out a blue and white thin woolen skirt. It was elegantly cut and just right. It is the popular navy style now.
"This dress is so beautiful, thank you, sister-in-law." Tang Xin held the dress. She was tired of seeing all the blue, black, gray and green colors, but her eyes really lit up when she saw this dress.
"I also fell in love with it the first time I saw it. Go and try it quickly to see if it suits you." The hostess smiled and said to Tang Xin, pushing her to try it out.
Tang Xin agreed, turned around and went to the back room. After a while, she changed into her skirt and walked out.
Note: The Hairpin Ceremony, also known as the Hairpin Ceremony, is the coming-of-age ceremony for Han women in ancient China and is an important ceremony. A hairpin is a kind of hairpin used to hold up the hair and is one of the headdresses of women. Hairpin means that when a woman reaches the age suitable for marriage, she wears a hairpin to change her childhood hair style, indicating that she has reached adulthood. Generally speaking, a woman should have her hair tied when she is around fifteen years old, and twenty years old at the latest. The time and method of the hairpin ceremony are affected by whether the woman is promised to be married. If a woman has been promised to marry, she must perform the hairpin ceremony after getting engaged and before getting married. If the woman is not married, she must perform the hairpin ceremony when she is twenty years old.
