My Gentleman Reborn

The furniture is custom-made at the craftsman's house in the village.

Because he didn't have much silver, He Yuzhou didn't dare to do more. Each of the three rooms made a bed, a table and two chairs, and a long desk in the hall, with relatively larger wooden chairs on both sides.

Considering the large number of people, he made five chairs alone. He also made a wardrobe and a dressing table in his room. In the kitchen, he asked for a cupboard and a dining table.

Due to more work, the carpenter lost some silver taels from He Yuzhou.

It was said to be small, but it actually cost He Yuzhou nearly five taels.

A bed costs 440 renminbi, a round table costs [-] renminbi, a chair costs [-] renminbi, a large one in the hall costs [-] renminbi, a desk costs [-] renminbi, a dressing table costs [-] renminbi, and a wardrobe costs [-] renminbi. Wen, the tableware and cabinet carpenter said that it was the first time to do it, it had to be customized, and it would cost [-] Wen, so he accepted [-] Wen from He Yuzhou, and [-] Wen for the dining table.

This is still the case of all ordinary wood, without carving decoration at all!

However, no matter what, since this one belongs to the village, it is the cheapest one for He Yuzhou. If you go to the town, it will cost at least ten taels.

In this way, he still has some money left.

It took another day to go to town to buy all the daily necessities.

He Yuzhou used two taels of kitchen utensils such as pots, bowls and chopsticks, kitchen knives, chopping boards, and spatulas.

And the quilts, bed sheets, pillows, bed curtains and the like for the three rooms cost He Yuzhou about five taels.

Including bath tubs, water storage barrels and other odds and ends, He Yuzhou spent a total of twelve taels.

Back in the village, He Yuzhou put his things away in the new house, and when he returned to the thatched hut, He Yuzhou was already tired.

After resting for another day, He Yuzhou went to the town to buy something for wine.

After discussing the bowls and chopsticks, it was finally decided that if there were many people that day, they would be borrowed from Mrs. Guan's family, Zhao's family and Cong Di's family.

Vegetables and the like are all picked by the three families from their own homes.

What He Yuzhou was going to the town to buy was some meat.

He used to buy pork, but this time he bought some chickens in addition to pork.

There are more than 50 households in Hekou Village. Each family has one person, and he has to set five tables. Considering the number of people, He Yuzhou bought ten fish.

I bought pig's knuckles, pork, pork liver, and some rice wine seasonings, and went back to the village in big and small bags.

Aunt Guan said that July 28 is a good day. She moved to a new house that day, but the place was dirty from the wine party, so she made it from the hut, which is not far away anyway.

It is easier to make it in a new kitchen, preferably sweet. The kitchen must be on fire on the day of moving, otherwise it is unlucky.

The bought meat and fish were cleaned and put in Uncle Yi’s well to chill. Considering the weather, the chickens were not killed. Aunt Guan said that she would kill them and send them over the next day.

Cong Di, who went to treat guests, is the next village head, and it is most appropriate for him to do it for him.

After He Yuzhou bought the food, he was working on the menu. Everyone in the village has had too many hardships and would especially like to eat greasy and heavy-tasting food, so He Yuzhou still planned to use pork to make braised pork.

The chicken is going to be a whole boiled chicken.

Pork liver stewed in cold salad, pig's feet stewed in soybean soup, fried vegetables, a tiger skin green pepper, a bowl of braised fish, and glutinous rice balls stuffed with wine, a total of eight dishes, He Yuzhou thought it would be enough.

If it is not enough, cook some eggplant...

But when Mrs. Guan saw the recipe, she said that He Yuzhou wasted money and that he was not allowed to add more dishes...

After formulating the recipe, He Yuzhou began to prepare.

Cut the parts that need to be cut, wash the parts that should be washed, and make the glutinous rice balls first, and move them to the new house the next day to cook. He will marinate the pork liver first. Bad, the pork knuckle soup is also cooked from night to the next day.

He also packed all his things, a small bundle, which contained some of his clothes, and a plate, on which lay the tea set he bought. The tea set was not complete, and he smashed a few of them last time. There is nothing else to fix.

On the other side of the new house, Uncle Zhao and the others were decorating. They said that it was the custom here that couplets should be pasted, red lanterns should be hung at the door, and the door should be covered with a red cloth.

This couplet was written by Zhao Yishu, with vigorous and powerful characters. It reads:

"Enter the auspicious mansion, the new house will prosper for thousands of years, and the auspicious mansion will prosper and everything will come true."

He Yuzhou didn't understand these things, he just thought it was very interesting, so he let them do it.

Early the next morning, He Yuzhou was called by Mrs. Guan. As soon as he went out, he found a wooden barrel of white rice at his door. The white rice was [-]% full, and there was red paper on it. Less silver taels.

He Yuzhou looked at Aunt Guan suspiciously, and Aunt Guan smiled and said, "Xiaozhou, I moved to a new house today, and my aunt is here to help."

With that said, Aunt Guan handed over the bucket of rice to He Yuzhou and said, "Hurry up and go with Auntie."

He Yuzhou took it with some doubts, Zhao Yi and Cong Di came from afar, Guan Dahai hurried over with a handful of incense and a stove, there was still fire in the stove, even Aunt Zhao brought Zhao Xiaoqing over.

After exchanging some auspicious words with each other, Mrs. Guan found a bucket, which was seventy percent full of water, put two pairs of new bowls and chopsticks in it, and handed it to Cong Di for him to carry.

He Yuzhou's tea set was carried by Zhao Yi's gang, and the pitifully small burden was handed over to Zhao Xiaoqing.

Aunt Zhao carried a pair of dustpans and a new broom with red cloth strips tied to them.

Aunt Guan walked ahead holding the glutinous rice balls and rice wine eggs prepared yesterday, and they followed behind.

A group of people set off in such a team, Guan Dahai threw firecrackers from time to time in the back, and Aunt Guan shouted auspicious words in front.

The people in the village ran out one by one when they heard the noise, and stared at them. The children looked at them curiously and laughed playfully. The adults congratulated He Yuzhou all the way.

He Yuzhou didn't know what to do again, so he couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

Zhao Yi watched from the side, and explained with a chuckle: "This is a custom here, and doing it like this means good luck, everything is up to me and Mrs. Guan, Xiaozhou just watch it."

He Yuzhou looked at him slightly relieved.

Walking all the way to the new house, Zhao Yixian and He Yuzhou stepped forward and stood side by side with Mrs. Guan. Zhao Yi was on the left and Mrs. Guan was on the right. The couplet was exposed, and the two of them pushed open the door of the new house, each with a hand.

They shouted auspicious words to each other.

Guan Dahai lit the bundle of incense in his hand and went in with the stove.

Aunt Guan gave He Yuzhou a wink, and followed in. Zhao Yi walked in front of He Yuzhou, and said in a low voice, "Xiaozhou, follow in, just go to the kitchen."

He Yuzhou was taken aback, and stepped into the new house with the wooden bucket of rice.

There was a sound of firecrackers under his feet. It turned out that Guan Dahai lit a small piece of firecrackers in front and threw them over.

Aunt Guan shouted: "Good luck opening the door, the owner enters the door, the house is safe, and the house is full of celebrations."

While talking, he grabbed the rice in He Yuzhou's bucket and sprinkled it around, then went into the kitchen.

He Yuzhou also followed in stiffly.

As soon as she entered, she realized that Congdi and Aunt Zhao came in after her, but Zhao Yi and Zhao Xiaoqing did not follow.

Wei Wei put away the things in his hands one by one in doubt, Guan Dahai took the incense and lit it and started to smoke around, He Yuzhou wanted to ask Aunt Guan, but when she saw Guan Dahai burned out the incense, she had already left Open the door and call Zhao Xiaoqing and Zhao Yi in.

"It's a custom, and the salute can only be brought in after being burned." Xu Shi saw He Yuzhou's doubts, and Aunt Guan explained.

Upon hearing this, He Yuzhou took the salute from Zhao Yi and Zhao Xiaoqing, nodded slightly, and put the two things away, and the move was considered complete.
