Today is the safe day of "washing three". After the family finished breakfast, Mrs. Zhang prepared new combs, new soap, new towel, pick navel hairpin, soup woman, new wooden plate, thick cloth, cake, tea, copper tea plate, green onion, ginger slices, mugwort, baking basket, raw and cooked eggs, hammers, etc.

Red paper is also used to dye red Guiyuan, litchi, raw peanut and chestnut. There are some things she prepared before the birth of her grandson, so they are not unfamiliar. They can be handled skillfully.

Early that morning, grandma Zhou came to Zhangjia alone with two old hens, small clothes and shoes she had made. She exchanged greetings with her father Lin and went to the west chamber to see Zhou Jiao.

Lin Lishan's mother and daughter saw that the old lady was full of tears. The old lady had worked hard to raise her baby. Lin Lishan was very respectful and guilty to her mother-in-law.

Mrs. Zhou looked at her wife with a smile and touched Xiao Ping'an: "you can't cry when you are in confinement. Today is a good day for our baby, so smile. Now see your mother and daughter together, milk this heart stone just really also fell. Shanshan, these years wronged you, good home to toss. The Zhou family is sorry for you. You are good and delicate, the child is a filial piety, if not forced to have no way, and they will not tear the face. Like her father, the child never tells outsiders about his business. I've suffered a lot of grievances these years. It's the old man who is confused. After Jiaojiao, you don't have to worry about the affairs of the Zhou family. Don't worry about who asks for you. Live your own life well. "

Zhou Jiao took old lady Zhou and sat down and said, "milk, I just feel sorry for you. You always raised me up, and I have not been filial to you, I poked into your heart. If you have any idea, I will do it. And the box you sent me. I told my mother that I always wanted my mother to know that I had a good grandmother

Sitting on the Kang, grandma Zhou was silent for a while. She sighed and looked at her mother and daughter. She hesitated for a moment and thought and said, "nothing sorry for me, grandma. As long as Jiaojiao lives well. Tell your mother, this box is not granny's. grandma met your grandfather is exhausted, where there are these good things, you can see the land lease, milk can't go so far to buy a house for you. This box was originally yours. I didn't take it out when you were young before, so I was afraid of something wrong. It was sent to me secretly by others and handed it to you by name.

Over the years, I've been in such a state of mind that no one dares to say. While your mother and daughter are here, I'll tell you something about it. I'm afraid that no one will know about it in a few days. Who will give you a house and valuable jewelry.

I'm worried. Nobody dares to say it. Don't worry about it. Hide the box. I don't know what's going on. I didn't find your grandfather. Let none of you say anything about it. I remember the pain in my heart. Jiaojiao, your father will never do bad things. He is my son. I know he is a man. If I don't believe you, ask your mother, if your father is not good, will your mother guard for so many years? "

With tears in her arms, Lin Lishan said in a low voice, "Mom, don't worry. It's all right. Her father is not a bad man, but a hero of the country. He's on a mission. I'll be back soon. Even my father doesn't know that he and my big brother have a mission. Now it's coming back. Mom, he's really coming back. "

Mrs. Zhou had been covering her eyes with trembling hands. After a long time, she slowly moved away. A series of tears flowed from her sad and happy face silently. There was no sound of crying, just let the tears flow down.

"OK, OK, OK, my son is back. He has been looking forward to it for so many years, thinking about it for so many years, and worrying about it for so many years. It's good to come back, just to come back."

Lin Lishan got up and took a towel to dry the tears on the old lady's face. She knew this mood. At that time, she knew the news and hid in the room, crying and laughing all day, which made the old man worried for a whole day.

"Don't get excited, mom. At present, few people know the news, and you have to keep it secret. He should be able to come back years ago. When he comes back, I will go with him to see you. We should all be happy and wait for him to come back. "

"Well, mom knows to keep it secret and not tell anyone. Telling others will bring him danger. Shanshan, good boy, you've finally come to an end. Good girl, she's only 18 years old. She didn't live a good life for a few years when she married her family. You're still foolishly guarding him. Now it's all right. Mom is at ease. Even if she's gone now, she's relieved. " Mrs. Zhou took Lin Lishan and patted her on the back.

Lin Lishan happily said to Mrs. Zhou, "Mom, don't say anything disheartened. You should live well and watch our family grow up peacefully, get married and have children. You don't know, Jiaojiao's pregnancy news reached the capital that afternoon, our family received the news that her father and her uncle were alive. The whole family says the child is a lucky star. "

Relatives and friends came here one after another. Close relatives gave Zhou Jiao some cakes, eggs, brown sugar and other food, as well as clothes, shoes, socks and other gifts for Ping An.

By noon, the weather was warm, and the three rituals began. All the relatives and friends gathered in the main room. Mrs. Zhang also put the stove on specially.

The tool of washing three is big basin, and the host is midwife. Today, midwife is a great harvest. All the things in the tray will be hers.

The basin is filled with hot water made of locust branches and mugwort leaves. After father Lin takes the lead to add a small spoon of water to the basin, and after the paper money and bills are put into the tea plate, Lin Lishan also puts silver yuan, copper money and paper money into the basin. The relatives and friends present then add some notes, bills, copper coins, peanuts, eggs, dates, Guiyuan, chestnuts, etc. into the basin. This is "adding basin"When you add Qingshui, she says, "long flowing water, smart and smart;

if you add some happy fruits such as jujube, Guiyuan and chestnut, she says," early son makes a son, even a noble son; Guiyuan, Guiyuan, Lianzhong Sanyuan. "

Listening to the crowd of relatives and friends laughing.

After adding the basin, the midwife picked up the prepared mallet and stirred it into the basin. She said, "one stirring, two stirring and three stirring. The elder brother leads the younger brother to run. Seventy, eighty, crooked, mischievous, and purrs are coming

At this time, she began to take a bath for Ping'an. She was cold and cried loudly. However, Zhang Guoqing, who was standing on the side, was worried. Everyone felt that he did not commit taboo, but thought it was auspicious. The midwife was washing and murmuring the congratulatory message. Others did not hear what was said. Be wary of those things that are not easy to say.

After washing, tie Ping'an with a red quilt, gently beat Ping'an with a green onion, and say, "one dozen are smart (" cong "and" cong ") are two dozen smart

Then asked the child's father Zhang Guoqing to throw the onion on the roof. Before Zhang Guoqing left, he quickly asked people to carry the child into the house. It was cold.

The washing ceremony is over, and then the three noodles are washed. Lao Zhang's family's big room, aunt Sanfang and sister-in-law come to help wake up the dough at dawn, and wait until the ceremony is over.

By noon, noodles have been cooked, bowls of bone soup to do the bottom of the soup, with a few slices of pork, put some scallion, delicious. It's a good thing that Zhang Guoqing brought back a lot of meat yesterday. Everyone's mouth was full of oil. They all thought that Lao Zhang was sincere and the bowl of fabric was real.

Watch the children eat a bowl, but also, adults stop. Zhang's mother is not stingy, let people boil all the noodles that wake up today and eat them all.

While eating, the women in the hall were all talking loudly about their village affairs, distant relatives and their respective days. The children were counting the sugar in their pockets and happily eating the noodles fed by adults. The older children would have run out with the candy after eating the noodles.
