The West Alley of the @night before the first year of the new year was extraordinarily lively.

Since the next day is Xiaonian, in Ji Wei's hometown, Xiaonian is to sacrifice to Zaogong.And to sacrifice Zao Gong, you need Zao Tang Zao Cake.In addition, Ji’s family has been making cakes for generations. When this time of the year approaches, the whole family rolls up their sleeves and joins the battle. The sugar-stove cakes are either eaten by the family or given to relatives and friends as gifts.

The habit of these years has long been ingrained, and Ji Wei decided to prepare when he was approaching his young age.

One is the cause of homesickness, and the other is to use this stove sugar stove cake to make wedding candy on the wedding day.

There is no such thing as wedding candy in this place. After all, the price of sugar is not cheap. Ordinary people only taste a few yuan during the festivals. Except for those who have a lot of money, they rarely give out wedding candy. They just use dry goods such as peanuts and melon seeds instead.

This stove sugar stove cake, as early as a few days ago, has begun preparations.

In the beginning, Ji Wei also planned to marry Liu Yimian into the family years ago.

Who knew that he was pregnant, from October to now, it's still not obvious.

But if it is delayed until the end of the Chinese New Year, it is not a good day for everyone to go to reunite with relatives at this time, and the wedding will have to be delayed.

Good days and auspicious days do not happen every day. According to this boundary, the birthdays of both parties need to be counted. If there are no good days in February, it will have to be delayed until March. By then, it will be pregnant again. question.

Therefore, Ji Wei simply followed the original plan. Just a few years ago, on the auspicious day of the new year, he planned to have a double happiness and make a big wedding. It happened that the husband and wife could celebrate the first New Year together.

For this reason, the workers didn't take much rest, and they were all working overtime to catch up.It has been going until it is completely dark, and it has not stopped.

In addition to being used as wedding candy, the stove sugar stove cake tastes crispy and sweet, and it is very different from other cakes. In addition, Ji Wei shirked that it was a must-eat for the young year from the book, so this new product was added. The store's sales list has doubled the pressure on the workers.

Fortunately, both Ji Wei and Mr. Zhang are kind people.

The more you do, the more rewarding you will be.For work beyond the normal working hours, the remuneration will be doubled.With money as an incentive, no one complains at all, and they work very vigorously.

After the big wedding and the Xiaonian’s Stove Festival, we specially customized candy wrappers of different styles. After dozens of workers packaged them overnight, they packed all the stovetop cakes into delicate and festive ones@night before the arrival of the New Year’s Eve. paper bags and pack them in different categories.

As soon as the fifth watch arrived the next day, Aunt Zhou came to Liu Yimian's room and knocked on the door.When the bride gets married, she should start from her own family.But Liu Yimian had already been sold into Ji's house, and there was nowhere to go back, so Aunt Zhou drove Zhao Hu out of the house, went to her room to lay a shop on the floor, and used Zhao Hu's room to tidy up and decorate it into a new house. Then she would leave her house .

Liu Yimian was nervous, even if Aunt Zhou reminded him to sleep well so as not to look haggard the next day, Liu Yimian still couldn't sleep.Lying on the bed, my mind is in a mess, it's all fragments of getting along with Ji Wei in the past, and after turning it over and over again, I waited until the fifth watch.

Hearing a knock on the door, he opened his eyes in the night, quickly took off his coat and went to open the door.

A red lantern was lit outside the house, Aunt Zhou saw Liu Yimian's radiant little face through the light, shook her head and pinched his cheek, angrily said: "You, I told you to sleep well, but you are not obedient."

"Auntie, I can't sleep." Liu Yimian blushed and turned sideways to welcome Aunt Zhou into the room.It happened that there was an unpopular wind blowing outside the house, and a few snowflakes drifted in, Liu Yimian shivered, and Aunt Zhou hurriedly closed the door when she saw this.

"Put on your clothes quickly, and then you can wear your wedding dress after washing your body." Aunt Zhou took off the heavy robe from the shelf and put it on for Liu Yimian.

After wrapping Liu Yimian up, she hurriedly opened the door again, went outside and shouted: "Is the water boiled? Hurry up!"

Zhao Hu and Zhao Dalong walked towards each other with a wooden bucket half a person's height on their shoulders.The bucket was half filled with water, sprinkled with colorful petals, and quickly carried into the house under Aunt Zhou's command.

Because of Ji Wei's big wedding, not only Aunt Zhou's house and Ji's house, but also lanterns were hung on both sides of the whole West Alley, which looked very festive and lively.

Even in the middle of the night, the West Alley is not as quiet as it used to be, filled with many noises.That's the worker Ji Wei hired, who is rushing to set up the scene.

There are five tables set up in Ji's yard, which are dedicated to welcoming guests who have received invitations.That's not all. In the not-so-spacious West Alley, wine tables were set up from beginning to end to entertain passers-by who came to celebrate.In addition to wanting to make the wedding more lively, I also want to accumulate blessings for the unborn child.

After all, today's Ji Wei can be regarded as making a lot of money every day.It is impossible to afford the money at such an urgent moment.

After Zhao's father and son carried the bathtub into the house, Aunt Zhou took out the ordered wedding dress from the cabinet.This wedding gown is made of high-quality silk and satin. Four first-class embroiderers were invited to rush to work and embroider for ten days before it was finished.The phoenix bird on the top, Ji Wei's body is embroidered with a male phoenix.

There is also a phoenix crown made of pure gold, decorated with tassels strung together with round beads the size of the little finger.It doesn't look too big, but everything is exquisite to the extreme.Even if you look at it in a government, it can be regarded as a first-class work.

This is what Ji Wei asked Mr. Zhang to ask his friends in Daming Mansion to order it from a craftsman.All of them are made of high-quality materials, and this phoenix crown alone will consume Ji Weiyi's entire month's net profit, which can be done with more than 100 taels of silver.

Aunt Zhou had never seen such a precious thing in her life, and when she held it in her hands, she didn't dare to make any big moves, so she carefully put this set of Fengguan Xiapei on the bed, and said to Liu Yimian who was undressing beside her: "Da Lang is really If you have a heart, you are willing to spend so much money for you, which means that he really puts you on the top of his heart, Mian Mian, you are a lucky one."

Liu Yimian bit her lower lip, and responded softly, and waited until the outer robe was taken off and hung on the bed, then she went to see Aunt Zhou in embarrassment.

Aunt Zhou smiled, "You child, I am already old, and I treat you like a son again. Can't a mother help me? What's more, you are still pregnant. What if you freeze or fall?"

Although several lights were lit in the room, Aunt Zhou still selectively ignored them.

When Liu Yimian grew up, she hadn't taken off her clothes in front of anyone except Ji Wei, and her ears turned red all of a sudden.Seeing that he was really thin-skinned, Aunt Zhou smiled at him, then turned away and asked him to take off quickly.

Liu Yimian quickly took off her clothes, climbed into the tub from the lower part and sat on the bottom of the tub, the petals covered his body tightly, and only then did he breathe a little in relief.

Since he came here, he treats Aunt Zhou as a relative in his heart.It's just that his body is different from ordinary people after all, and if he wants to show it in front of others, he will inevitably feel a little embarrassed.

When the sound of the water stopped, Aunt Zhou came over, took a coarse cloth, dipped some powder in it, and rubbed Liu Yimian's back.There is only a small box of this fine powder, but the price is comparable to gold. In addition to purifying the body, it also has a faint fragrance, which is not strong but very long-lasting.

Perfect for this big wedding day.

Aunt Zhou rubbed Liu Yimian's body where he couldn't get rid of it, then sat aside again and let him wipe himself.It's cold in winter. Although there is a brazier in the house and thick cloth curtains are used to block the cold wind, it is still cold after all.

The water doesn't have too much bubbles, Liu Yimian washed very quickly, climbed out of the tub in only [-] quarters of an hour, wrapped in a thick soft @soft cotton cloth, wiped off the water droplets on her body, started from the underwear Put it on your body.

There was a secret fragrance from his body, and the clothes had been worn close to his body for a long time, and this fragrance was also tainted.

Aunt Zhou dried his hair for him, couldn't help inhaling, and sighed: "Sure enough, it is worthy of the title of Qianjin Incense. Although it is expensive, it is really fragrant and not greasy. I heard Dalang say, It's very fashionable out there."

Aunt Zhou babbled about Ji Wei's preparations for this big wedding.Most of Liu Yimian knew about it, but because they were separated these days and couldn't meet Ji Wei, they didn't know the truth.At this time, from Aunt Zhou's mouth, I realized that Ji Wei spent a lot of money for this big wedding.

Hearing this, Liu Yimian was secretly startled, but there was a trace of sweetness, born from the bottom of her heart, dancing happily.

It took more than half an hour to cover my hair dry.Although Aunt Zhou is not a matchmaker, she has also helped several young girls in the family get married. She also knows how to comb their hair and dress up.

The movements were a little rusty, but she quickly became proficient. She did Liu Yimian's hair, put on light makeup, and everything was done. Even if the sun rises late in winter, the sky is already bright.

At this time, there was a lively sound of drums and horns from Ji's house not far away. It was the musicians who had been invited and started to work.Early in the morning, that strong sense of festiveness filled the air.

Liu Yimian began to get nervous again, unconsciously clenched her hands tightly, her fingers were cold, and her palms were covered in cold sweat.

"It's hard for you. You can't eat this morning, so bear with it. When the time is up, Da Lang will come to pick you up. If you are sleepy, you can lean on the bedside to rest." Aunt Zhou reached out to help Liu Yimian, and put He walked to the bed and tucked a corner of the quilt over him.

Liu Yimian sat there quietly, staring at the quilt with lowered eyes, Aunt Zhou's heart pricked, a little distressed, "Your family is also outrageous, otherwise you will get married, you should come and see. Married, still alone with no one to accompany..."

Aunt Zhou sat by the bed and grabbed Liu Yimian's hand.

His hands were cold and cold. Aunt Zhou was startled. When she felt the slippery palms of his hands, she smiled again, "Are you nervous? It doesn't matter. It's a once-in-a-lifetime wedding. Are you nervous about sleeping? Leaning on Auntie and squinting." Squint."

Liu Yimian shook her head obediently, and held Aunt Zhou with her backhand, "Yes, Ah Qiu said he would come, but he has been pregnant for more than five months, so it's not good to come too early, he will be tired, I asked him to come back later."

While they were talking, there was movement at the door, and soon someone knocked on the door, it was Zhao Hu's voice.

"Mother, a man named Ah Qiu came to see Xiao Liu."

Liu Yimian pursed her lips and smiled, revealing the shallow dimples around her lips, "Ah Qiu is here, let him come later." Although she said so, she was happy in her heart.

Aunt Zhou put Liu Yimian's hand into the quilt, got up and opened the door, the wind outside the door came in, she blocked it with her body, hurriedly pulled the person at the door into the room, and quickly closed the door.
