After crossing over, it's hard

After watching the New Year's Eve, Li Ran and Ji Nan didn't go to bed until Ji Nan set off a set of firecrackers.It is also a custom to set off firecrackers after watching the New Year's Eve, which is called closing the door.In addition to this, on the morning of the first day of the new year, you have to get up early and set off firecrackers to open the door. This is called opening the door.The door cannot be closed or opened without setting off firecrackers, and once the door is closed, it cannot be opened unless it is opened.Moreover, it is also very particular about opening and closing the door to set off firecrackers. They must be set off in the main room, and the crumbs produced by the firecrackers cannot be poured out. They must be left in the main room after the tenth day of the first month.

On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Ji Nan got up between five and four in the morning, set off firecrackers and opened the door.Then wash yourself with cold water, put the washing water in a bucket, and put it next to it. This is the washing water that cannot be poured out. The washing water means wealth water. It must be packed well, and it can only be poured out after the third day Otherwise, you will lose your fortune.After washing up, Ji Nan went back to bed and continued to sleep, and the door was left open.Xiao Yuan was woken up by the sound of firecrackers. He went to bed early yesterday, and now he can't sleep anymore, so he got up and dressed himself and went to Li Ran, Ji Nan and his room.

At this time, Ji Nan had just laid down, and the oil lamp in the room was still on. Xiao Yuan came to their bed and yelled: "Father, father, Amu, get up, get up."

Ji Nan quickly stopped Xiao Yuan's voice, patted his head, and said softly: "Your mother is still sleeping, don't speak loudly, be careful to wake your mother up."

Xiao Yuan climbed onto the bed, lay on Ji Nan's body, stared at Li Ran who was sleeping in the bed with his round eyes, and naughtily pressed Li Ran's blushing face with his hands.Then he turned around and said softly to Ji Nan, "Father, why is Ah Mu still sleeping!"

Ji Nan rubbed his head, and said softly: "Your mother was tired all day yesterday, of course you have to sleep. Is Xiao Yuan going to bed?" Ji Nan patted the seat outside the bed.

Of course Xiaoyuan happily agreed, shouting: "I want to come up and play. However, I want to sleep in the middle, and I want to rely on my father and Eminem."

"Okay, sleep in the middle, leaning against Father E-Mu." Ji Nan said softly, then sat up, helped Xiao Yuan take|take off the clothes on his body, carried Xiao Yuan into the middle seat, and let him lie on his arms bent.Xiao Yuan hasn't slept with his father E-Mu for a long time, he looks very excited, keeps moving, turning left and right, uneasy, and touches Li Ran from time to time, Ji Nan smiles helplessly, always Caught his hand that touched Li Ran back under the bed, and told him not to move, carefully waking up Eminem.

Li Ran was able to sleep after Xiao Yuan made such a noise. He opened his eyes, squeezed Xiao Yuan's face, kissed him on the forehead, and said, "You little naughty boy, don't let me get away from you when you make noise." Ah Mu sleeps." Xiao Yuan laughed out loud being squeezed by Li Ran, and went straight into Li Ran's arms.

The two played around for a while, and Xiao Yuan lay in Li Ran's arms, clamoring for Li Ran to tell him a story.The storytelling started at that time to coax Xiaoyuan to sleep alone. Later, Xiaoyuan got used to listening to it, so he often asked Li Ran to tell him.Now the time is still there, and I can't sleep anyway, Li Ran hugged Xiao Yuan in his arms, cleared his throat, and began to tell the story.This time it is about the story of Snow White. Of course, Snow White was replaced by a female character who was replaced by a brother.

Ji Nan listened to Li Ran's clear voice, telling stories to Xiao Yuan softly, his heart softened, these are his two treasures.Ji Nan hugged the two babies into his arms, followed Xiao Yuan and listened quietly to Li Ran's storytelling.The family enjoys this warm and sweet morning.

When it was dawn outside, around seven o'clock in the morning, the story was finished, and the family of three got up and washed up. Li Ran started to make breakfast, which was to cook rice cakes.In the morning when Uncle Zhang got up together, Xiaoyuan happily greeted Uncle Zhang with a New Year greeting, saying sweetly, "Grandpa, Happy New Year, I wish Grandpa good health, a long life and good luck." Hearing that, Uncle Zhang couldn't close his eyes mouth, patted Xiao Yuan's head, called out his sweetheart, and stuffed Xiao Yuan with a generous red envelope.

According to the customs here, there is no need to go out to visit relatives to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the new year, and you can't leave the village. The reason is that you don't know why. Knowing that it is not good to leave the village.On the first day of the Lunar New Year, it is to pay New Year greetings to people of the same clan and good friends.After breakfast, Ji Nan took Xiao Yuan out to pay New Year's greetings to the elders of the same clan and the people he had good friends with, while Li Ran stayed at home, laying out sunflower seeds and preserved fruit snacks, waiting for others to come to the house to pay New Year's greetings.

Xiaoyuan followed his father to the New Year's greetings, took a small cloth bag, and followed Gousheng to the village to give New Year's greetings to others.This is also a custom. Every family of children goes to pay New Year's greetings, and then adults will grab a handful of melon seeds for snacks for the children. The more children who come to this house, it proves that the popularity is strong, and there will be more in the new year. Good luck.After Li Ran knew about this custom, he prepared plenty of melon seeds and candied fruits, and they were delicious.Li Ran would generously grab two handfuls of melon seeds, snacks and preserved fruits for every child who came to pay New Year's greetings.

This kid always shows off when he gets good things. In this way, Li Ran's house is known to all the kids, and almost all the kids will come to Li Ran's house.And the children from Li Ran's family are naturally the most in the village.Of course, the scattered melon seeds, snacks and preserved fruits are also the most, but Li Ran doesn't care at all.Think of it as an investment, although Li Ran doesn't believe that if there are more children, there will be more good luck in the new year.

The second day of the Lunar New Year is the day when relatives begin to pay New Year's greetings.In Pingyang Town, the married brother will go home to pay New Year’s greetings on the second day of the Lunar New Year. Of course, it’s different from sending off the New Year. New Year's greetings to the married brother's family.

The most important thing about New Year's greetings is to go early, if it is over, it will not be auspicious, and it is also disrespectful to the host family, which will make the host family unhappy.Ji Hai and his wife brought gifts to Li Ran early in the morning on the second day of the Lunar New Year, and brought good news to Li Ran, Ji Nan and the others. Ji Hai's husband is pregnant, and it has been more than a month Yes, but not yet conceived.

At night, Ji Nan thought that his younger brother's husband was pregnant, but Xiaoran didn't move. He felt very humiliated, and hugged Li Ran desperately.It made Li Ran a little baffled, thinking about what medicine Ji Nan took wrongly today, he was so full of energy.It made Li Ran unable to get up the next day, and Ji Nan got up to make breakfast.

Both Ji Nan and Li Ran have no relatives, and they only need Zhang Wang's family and Ji Hai's family, which is Zhao Youting's family, to pay New Year's greetings.However, now Li Ran didn't worry too much, he just wanted to wait until he finished going to Ji Hai's house and Zhang Wang's house.

Li Ran first went to Ji Hai's house on the third day of junior high school. After returning, Li Ran called the butcher to come to the house and helped kill a sheep. When he was going to visit Zhang Wang's house for New Year's greetings, he gave a leg of lamb and kept the rest. When do you come to boil mutton?The flock of sheep raised by Li Ran's family is very well raised, and they can already be killed and eaten.It's just that I haven't seen Zhao Youting in this period of time, and I haven't had time to tell him that I want to open a mutton restaurant with him.

After paying New Year's greetings at Zhang Wang's house, Li Ran cooked a whole lamb feast that night, which completely overturned Ji Nan and Uncle Zhang's idea that mutton was not tasty, and his brother ate it all alone.

Just when Li Ran was wondering whether he should go to pay New Year's greetings to Zhao Youting, he came to give them New Year's greetings first.Zhao Youting came to their house with his servants driving an ox cart. Li Ran was very shocked when he saw him, and secretly blamed himself for treating the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.In fact, Li Ran wanted to pay New Year's greetings to Zhao Youting, but he was afraid that others would say that he was climbing high branches, climbing dragons and phoenixes, so he was still undecided.

Because of this apology, Li Ran cooked a large table of delicious food at noon, just to thank Zhao Youting.After lunch, Li Ran thought of his idea of ​​opening a mutton restaurant, so he thought about taking advantage of Zhao Youting's presence, so he just said it now.In fact, Li Ran can also open it by himself. The family's money is enough to buy a storefront, but still the same sentence, Li Ran and Ji Nan are just farmers in the countryside, and they don't have a strong backer behind them. For a restaurant, if the business is not good, forget it. If the business is booming, there will be countless people watching from behind. If they want to snatch the business, he and Ji Nan will definitely not be able to do it.Even if they look around to help, they can't help all the time. By then, the little affection between children and parents will not be consumed in minutes.

But if Zhao Youting is there, it will be different. Although I don't know his background exactly, but if he can open the biggest and best restaurant in Pingyang Town and live in peace, then the background and methods will definitely not be bad.At that time, handing over the mutton restaurant to Zhao Youting will save him and Jinan's affairs. After all, it is impossible for him and Jinan to spend all their energy on the mutton restaurant. They still have their own home to run Woolen cloth.

Li Ran told Zhao Youting his idea, and Zhao Youting nodded, as if agreeing.Li Ran's idea is good. He has been to the nomads in the north. They are famous for eating mutton. The taste of mutton is very good. Just now he ate the mutton made by Li Ran. The taste is better than that of the nomads. If such a mutton restaurant can really be opened, the business will definitely not be bad.

However, Zhao Youting raised his own question: "This mutton restaurant is like what you said, so it can't be opened in hot seasons like summer." The mutton restaurant mentioned by Li Ran is similar to hot pot. There is no air conditioning in Daqing. It is true that no one will come to eat on a hot day, so it is really impossible to open a store.But it can only do business during the cold weather in winter. Now that there is not much left in winter, opening a mutton restaurant now will definitely lose money.

Li Ran also thought of this point. He thought of a method that almost all traversers will use to make money, that is, to use saltpeter to make ice, which can make a lot of ice. As long as there is enough ice in the mutton restaurant, it should can.Thinking of this, Li Ran looked at Zhao Youting with a smile and said, "I have a way, but I don't know if it will work or not. It is to put enough ice in the mutton restaurant, so that it can cool down." Dare to speak up, if it is useless at that time, it will be a shame, after all, he himself does not know whether this method will work or not.

Zhao Youting nodded, and said: "This is a way, that is, in summer, it is difficult for us to have enough ice. In this case, it is a useless way."

"Don't worry about this, I have a recipe for making ice here." Li Ran told Zhao Youting the recipe for making ice with saltpeter.The reason why Li Ran was so big and told this recipe to Zhao Youting is also because he believed in Zhao Youting's character through the matter of buying watermelon, because there are many flaws in the matter of watermelon, but But Zhao Youting was able to keep silent, without saying or asking anything.If it were anyone else, Li Ran wouldn't say this money-making formula so loudly.

After finalizing the matter, Zhao Youting went back, and first asked someone to go to the town to look at the shop.Even other specific details will have to be discussed and finalized by the two next time.
