iron face man laughing husband

Twelve dishes, one main course, one soup.

It is very rich, and there is soju to drink.

Before the banquet, Brother Xiao invited Lin Qi and Lin Feng's grandfather and grandson to celebrate the New Year together in the second hall. After all, they are guests from afar, and they can't be left behind when celebrating the New Year here.

Lin Qi was an elder, so he naturally sat in the main seat, Lin Feng went to set off firecrackers, there was a lot of noise, Brother Shan even hugged his father and did not let go.

Tie Qing walked around the house with the child in his arms, with a fatherly smile on his face, and patiently explained to Brother Shan pointing to all kinds of things in the house. There are actually some good things in the house, Duobaoge A small sapphire tortoise on the table, two small gold vases, a pair of wenge ornaments... It doesn't matter that the only listener is actually eating his own little hand, or spitting bubbles constantly.

Grandpa humming haha, it's kind of like that.

Coupled with Lynch teasing the children on the side, it was enjoyable.

Xiao Fulang left for a while and then came back: "Everyone has eaten before, let's eat too."

The couple took their children and sat in front of the big table. They were a little thin. There were only three people in total, including the grandparents of the Lin family, five of them, and one of them, Brother Shan, was still a milk baby.

"Today we celebrate the New Year with five of us." Tie Qing hugged Brother Shan, and Lin Qi cheerfully stuffed a gold key into the little guy's bib pocket: "Happy New Year to Brother Shan."

"Isn't it too much for you?" Brother Xiao couldn't laugh or cry, how old is this?Put a pair of little golden scorpions.

"Not much, not much!" Lynch waved his hand: "This is for him to celebrate the new year, gold, good stuff."

"It's because our brother Shan is precious." Tie Qing didn't care about that, Lynch gave it to him and continued, it's rare enough for Brother Shan.

The couple and their beautiful children had a New Year's Eve dinner with the grandparents of the Lin family, during which someone came to toast with a wine glass.

Brother Shan stayed in Tie Qing's arms and did not move, so Tie Qing could only sit and have a drink with everyone, which was a fitting occasion.

On the contrary, everyone saw that Brother Shan was very cute, and even gave him a red envelope, not much, just a hundred copper coins, but it had a good meaning, longevity.

Lin Feng also wrapped a small red envelope for Brother Shan, and put it under Brother Shan's Youche pillow: "The lucky money should be put under the pillow, this is from me to Brother Shan."

There are a total of one hundred brand new copper plates inside.

But what is written on it is not the four words "Dazhen Tongbao", but the four words "Longevity for a hundred years".

"What kind of money is this?" Brother Xiao had never seen such money.

"It's called spending money." Lynch told him, "It's just used for New Year's Eve."

Did the couple understand or not? They were at a loss. It was Lin Feng who explained to them the meaning of spending money.

"Spending money" is not money spent.

When it was used in the early days, it was mainly a kind of money for folk self-entertainment. Since this kind of coin is not circulating money, its material is mostly rough. will be more refined.

Folks commonly refer to this kind of money as "spending money".

Although "spending money" has the form of coins, it is not used for circulation and is an "illegal product" in coins.In this time and space, there are many types of folk spending money, such as opening furnaces, treasuries, gifts, blessings, rewards, operas, accessories, zodiac signs, etc. all have to cast money. This kind of "money" is actually dedicated to a certain kind of Necessary evil products, auspicious products, souvenirs.

Among them, "auspicious language money" is a relatively common type of spending money.

It mainly focuses on auspicious words such as "longevity and wealth", "good fortune and longevity", "enhancing official career", "world peace" and other auspicious words, and there are many classifications.

"How do you classify this?" Tie Qing became interested.

There is not even a Spring Festival Gala for the New Year's Eve, so he can only find someone to chat with, and talk about things he is interested in.

"For example, town treasury money, which is a kind of super-large and overweight coin specially minted by the official money bureau for the evil of the town treasury before the circulation of coins. Some coins are specially cast with the words "Town Treasury". "Lin Feng said: "The town treasury money of the former dynasty is now worth a thousand gold, because the former dynasty searched for the wealth of the people to enter the dynasty. It is said that when the former dynasty's treasury was opened, it was full of gold, silver and jewels, right? ,grandfather?"

"Of course, I was also one of the people who broke through the money bank back then, and our family still has a bunch of money from the former dynasty's treasury!" Lynch stroked his beard and said, "The former dynasty is not as extravagant as you can imagine! So Let me tell you, when we broke into the palace, we found that there were copper coins under the lanterns, do you know what they are called?"

The three shook their heads in unison. Brother Shan looked amused, and he shook his head accordingly.

"We didn't know at the beginning, and there were soldiers who went to pick up the copper coins that were hanging under the palace lantern. Later, we found a big eunuch, and we found out after asking, that it is called hanging lantern money!" Lynch stroked his beard and pouted his mouth: " It is said that it is a kind of money used by the palace, that is, the money hung under the palace lantern. It is said that the money bureau of the previous dynasty "refined a number of strings and presented them in December and December, which is called hanging lantern money". Large, copper, and well-made, that is, it may be hanging lamp money."

"Can you still play like this?" Tie Qingchang saw it.

"Later, I heard from people in the Ministry of Household Affairs that during the previous dynasty, every December, the casting bureau had to cast a batch of exquisite hanging lamp coins decorated with dragon and phoenix patterns. Later, they disliked the vulgar patterns and switched to writing. Substitute." Lynch said: "Let's not talk about you, we old people think it's extravagant! At that time, half a year's salary for one of our soldiers was only worth the money for the hanging lamp hanging under the palace lantern That's all."

"No wonder the previous dynasty was defeated!" Tie Qing gritted her teeth: "All the money is on this."

"More than that!" Lynch waved his hand: "Only when you become the Lord of the Town will you know what kind of life the rich people live. It's just two money."

"Ah?" Brother Xiao exclaimed, "Is there any other money?"

They are small farmers who know copper plates and Dazhen Tongbao.

However, the family is well-off, and they know silver and some gold coins, but Xiao Geer spends less, and usually uses copper plates. When spending a lot of money, he will use silver.

Usually, I seldom use gold to spend. One is that the wealth is not revealed, and the other is that the expenses are not that big.

"Yes!" Lin Feng said: "The most common one is birthday money, which is specially used to celebrate birthdays. Qian Wen usually has the meanings of turtle and crane longevity, tortoise and crane longevity, longevity and wealth, blessing and longevity, and longevity extension, etc. On the back, there are patterns such as gods, spirit turtles, cranes, and auspicious clouds. It is said that a grand master in the previous dynasty celebrated his birthday and minted [-] gold coins, which cost a lot. "

"There is also a kind of accessory money, which is worn on the body for decoration or to ward off evil spirits, also known as "matching money". It was first used by businessmen to seek wealth, and gentlemen wear jade. They are not gentlemen, but a group of mercenary villains. Therefore, we can only distribute money, hoping for good fortune, at the beginning it was a money-shaped matching buckle, and later it was changed to a distribution of money, with some words asking for wealth written on it, such as a daily income of a thousand gold, gold and silver in the house."

"There is also a kind of spring money. This kind of money has been recorded in the previous dynasty. At that time, women's jewelry was mostly in the shape of small gold and silver coins, also called fortune. Generally, business women like this hairstyle. The higher ups, in order to "get rich"." Lin Feng talked eloquently: "There is another kind of spring coins, which are privately cast by folks who make small jewelry. The front side is usually written with the words "New Year's Day and Lucky", and the back will have "population safety", The words of peace every year."

"Besides that, there is also money to be distributed." Lin Feng said clearly when talking about this: "This kind of money is usually used in wedding ceremonies, and most of the money to be distributed is auspicious words, such as longevity and wealth, husband and wife There are also gilt and silver varieties on the surface of circulating money, such as getting old together, full of gold and jade, descendants of Yier, and giving birth to a precious son. For copper, the nobles use gilt silver, and the royal family only use gilt gold."

There are clear regulations, and no one can violate them. If they violate them, a big hat of arrogance will be placed on their heads.

Tie Qing asked Brother Xiao: "Have you seen it?"

Brother Xiao shook his head very honestly: "No."

At that time, he was very busy, what was he looking at?

Brother Shan watched his father shake his head, and he shook his head again.

"In addition to the New Year's money for children, there is also a kind of New Year's money in the previous dynasty." Lynch told them: "It is specially used to celebrate the New Year. This kind of money is small and exquisite. It is privately minted by the people. Because it is specially used to congratulate New Year, also known as New Year’s money. When the officials of the former dynasty were corrupt, the payment to the army was this kind of New Year’s money. It caused turmoil in many places at that time. An ordinary copper coin can be cast into three such coins. New Year's money, the copper coin is thin, it is easy to be broken after a few times of use, and it is not resistant to use."

"Yes, I also know a kind of chess money!" Lin Feng immediately asked them: "Do you know?"

This time even Lynch shook his head: "I don't know!"

"What kind of money is this? Like chess?" Tie Qing was also curious. He remembered the appearance of chess, so big and thick: "What are you doing for casting such a large amount of money?"

"Chess money is not for spending, but for playing. It is a money-shaped chess piece. When playing chess, the winner or loser is uncertain. Whoever eats whose chess piece belongs to the opponent. A piece of chess money, It's worth a lot!" Lin Feng laughed, "It's an elegant gamble."

Scholars are suspected of gambling. It's hard to say, but they just resorted to such a small trick.

Ordinary people will think the same as Tie Qing when they hear "chess money", money as big and thick as chess must be very valuable.

As everyone knows, it is chess in the shape of money, not money like chess.

"Scholars have many eyes." That's all Lynch could say.

"There is also a kind of auspicious money, which is also quite expensive. For example, a kind of auspicious money called "Lianzhong Sanyuan". Okay, one money is worth three money, and it was robbed by people, but it was banned by the court. After all, this It's just a gimmick."

"This group of people really know how to play!" Tie Qing understood that not only the political corruption in the previous period, but also the financial chaos. After inflation, the whole world was in chaos. He was eventually impeached and dismissed.

"What's the point? In the previous dynasties, there were warning coins at the earliest, some were honorifics, some were praises to government, not much money but great honor." Lin Feng said: "There are also several kinds of money, such as wood carving money and talisman money."

"Huh?" The couple were completely dumbfounded.

"Wood carving money? Money carved out of wood?" Tie Qing felt that the ancient metal casting money was already very backward, but he didn't expect there to be even more backward. Wood carving money, even a carpenter can carve this kind of money, so what kind of financial system is there? Nothing to say?

"The so-called woodcarving money is usually put on the beams of the building. You can see it when the beams are put on the mansion on the west side. That stuff can only be used for building houses now. You can’t spend it, or the imperial court would have finished the game long ago!” Lin Feng was so drunk that he dared to say this: “There is also a kind of talisman coin, which is a coin made by Taoist priests to pray for peace, and it is also made of wood. Yes, but the peach wood is used, and this kind of thing can only be used for sacrifices and peace, and cannot be spent.”

"It can't be spent. If it's spent, the world won't be in chaos?" Tie Qing shook his head: "Come on, drink one. I'm dry talking now. This wine is a good thing. It has been brewed for three years. Good wine of the year."

"Yes, drink, drink!" Brother Xiao poured them wine.

Seeing Brother Shan's cuteness, Lynch secretly dipped a bit of the wine in the glass with a pair of serving chopsticks, and nodded towards his small mouth, only on his lips.

Tie Qing saw it and didn't stop her.

He remembered hearing from his mother that at that time, his father ordered wine for him in the same way.

Brother Shan licked his tongue and found that it was spicy!

Immediately, "Bah, bah, bah."

Tie Qing looked at it and laughed loudly: "He can vomit."

"Drink some wine now, and stop drinking in the future!" Lynch laughed and said, "Drink more in the future."

"Yes, drink well!" Tie Qing is also a little crazy, whoever said that his brother Shan can do everything, and drink well, that's good.

"A little brother, why don't you drink well?" Brother Xiao hugged the child angrily: "Don't feed it."

Tie Qing smirked: "My husband is angry, hehehe...."

"Then eat honestly, eat!" Lynch was also laughing, and this old man seemed to hit it off.

Lin Feng poured wine for the two of them. They were eating, drinking and laughing during the Chinese New Year. The atmosphere was very good.

It's just that they went to bed late, because they had to watch the night, and they ate half the night before the dinner table.

But the dishes were not cold, because several dishes on the dinner table were served with charcoal fire, such as a pot of sauerkraut stewed with meat bones. The small pot was filled with meat bones and sauerkraut. Put two sticks of charcoal and keep heating.

There is also a pot of stewed old duck, which is also being heated all the time, not to mention the stewed one, but it is true that it has not been cooled, and cold dishes such as pork skin jelly and sauced pig's trotters do not need to be kept warm at all. .

One night passed, and the next morning everyone ate some leftovers, ate freshly cooked dumplings, and got red envelopes for New Year greetings one by one, and hurried back to catch up on sleep.

Tie Qing and Brother Xiao also received a red envelope from Lynch. He is the oldest person here, with the highest official position, and the highest title.
