Chapter 133 Become a Vegetarian
Early the next morning, the blessing ceremony began. Worshiping activities began early in the morning at Mazu Temple, and Ye Yaodong also went to burn three sticks of incense.
The first day was very simple. They just laid out tributes and invited gongs, drums and suonas. Then the villagers volunteered to offer incense. They waited until the last day to invite Mazu to patrol.
He came back directly after burning the incense. His wife said that she would move things to a new home today.
Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua also planned to take advantage of these few days to take everything they could to their new home together. It just so happens that we move on the same day.
There was only one cart at home, so they took turns to move it, one at a time, and the move was completed in three trips. They didn't have much belongings. The big items were their wardrobes, and the rest were only bedding and clothes that were not yet in season.
[To be honest, I have been using x-on:recently to read and catch up on updates, switch, and read aloud with many sounds. It can be used on Android or Apple. 】
The bed cannot be moved until the day of the move. Moving the bed depends not only on the day, but also on the time. Lin Xiuqing is also very likely to be pregnant. There is a pregnant woman at home, so the bed cannot be moved casually.
Ye Yaodong actually wanted to get a new bed. The wooden bed creaked every time he did something, which greatly affected his longevity. Although there is Simmons now, he can't get it, it's too expensive, and he doesn't even make enough money, so he can only make do with it and sleep.
Then I bought a small bed with an iron frame for the child, similar to the bunk beds in the staff dormitory. Even though there was only one floor, it was enough for the time being. The younger son would have to sleep with them for at least two years.
After moving the things, Ye Yaodong ran home to get a hoe. He planned to reclaim some of the open space next to him. It's all open space anyway, so of course the land he opened is his. As long as it's not used as a homestead to build a house, there's still no problem in farming.
When the time comes, cut some bamboo, surround it with a fence, and you’ll have a vegetable garden!
Father Ye and Mother Ye also visited their new home when they had nothing to do. They were very satisfied when they saw him reclaiming the land again. The third son has indeed become more and more planning during this time, and he will also think of a variety of dishes to order and is no longer lazy. No more work.
"Dongzi, when you run out of hoe, give it to me. I'll take advantage of this free time to open some land, just in time to plant some radishes."
"good."
He thought in his mind that he should go to the blacksmith shop to buy a hoe. Many things had to be used before he remembered that he didn't have them. There was only one set of farm tools at home and they couldn't separate them. They had to buy them by themselves.
There was only one share of many things in the house. Only bowls and things from each room could be brought over, and the rest had to be left to his parents. They were both young and still able to work, so they couldn't share everything.
After cultivating the land for most of the day, Ye Yaodong pushed the ash bucket up the mountain after lunch. He had to dig some soil and chop some bamboo to tie the fence.
He was busy with these things all day long, and Ye's father also helped him tie the fence. After all, he had never done this kind of work. Ye's father was more experienced and knew everything.
In the evening, the men in the family go to the Mazu Temple to burn three sticks of incense in the evening. During the week of fasting, they will burn three sticks of incense in the morning and evening.
Ye Yaodong is also very pious. He hopes that his whole family will be safe and healthy in this life. There was a young man next to him who was ignorant, and he helped to correct the wrong way of burning incense.
….
Traditional culture regards the left as good luck and the right as bad luck. When offering incense, you must cover your left hand with your right hand and bow, and then you must hold the incense in your left hand and insert it into the incense burner.
There is a saying that the right hand is unclean due to killing, while the left hand is relatively peaceful and suitable for offering incense in front of the Buddha. There is also a saying that men should be on the left and women should be on the right.
Father Ye couldn't help but nodded when he saw that he was quite reliable and could teach others without being taught.
"Okay, let's go back to eat."
Dinner is the same as lunch. The table is full of vegetarian dishes. The adults know nothing about it. They know that they need to eat fast to pray for good luck and peace. The children don't understand this. When they see the table full of vegetarian dishes again, their faces suddenly fall.
"It's all vegetables. Do you really need to eat it for seven days?"
"Can you please stop eating vegetables?"
"I want to eat yesterday's prawns!"
"Me too, I've never eaten such big shrimp..."
Mother Ye knocked on the table and said, "The whole village is on a vegetarian diet, and our family is not the only one. Eat quickly. We ate a lot of fish and meat yesterday. You may want to eat some vegetarian food in the next few days to clear your stomach."
"But I'm not full!" Ye Chenghai touched his flat stomach, and after a few peeings, it was empty.
"Yes, I can't get enough to eat!" the children agreed in groups.
Sister-in-law Ye glared at her eldest son. He was the one who started everything. She was really disgusting. "You're not working, why are you so full? Eat quickly, don't be verbose, and don't finish the meal no matter how verbose you are." "
"Oh, I feel like my good days have just passed one day, and I have been knocked back to my original shape. No... it's even worse than before. I used to see small fish, shrimps, and shells."
"Shut your mouth and don't affect your brothers and sisters. Just hold on for a few days and it will be fine. If you don't want to eat, don't eat and go back to the house."
Ye Mu quickly acted as the peacemaker, "Stop scolding him, half-grown children are poor. They are growing up, so it is normal for them not to resist hunger. What's more, they have been eating vegetarian dishes and porridge all day long. I will cook it tomorrow." Sweet potatoes and dried rice will help you get hungry."
No one had anything to say when Mother Ye spoke. Sister-in-law Ye didn't scold the child, she just glared at him and told him to eat quickly.
After speaking, Mother Ye looked at Father Ye again, "The ash at the bottom of the pot is too thick. After dinner, take the pot to the back door and scrape the bottom of the pot with a hoe."
"knew."
Children all love to join in the fun. Even after watching it thousands of times, they are still very interested. After eating, they wait there and don’t run out to play.
After the meal, the big iron pot of the earthen stove was carried to the back door and covered upside down on the ground. The children squatted in a circle around it. Father Ye couldn't drive them away, so he could only ask them to step back.
He stepped on the pot to prevent it from moving, took a hoe, and slowly scraped along the edge of the pot, scraping off all the black pot ash.
"Grandpa, why do you always have to lift the pot out and scrape the bottom of the pot?"
"Don't you see it's all ash? It's accumulated a thick layer, how can you cook and cook like this? It takes a long time to cook."
They nodded in understanding.
Ye Mu held a jar with half a jar of black powder inside, squatted down and carefully scraped the ash from the bottom of the pot into the jar.
Pot bottom ash can stop bleeding and diarrhea. It is a reliable rural folk remedy with scientific basis. However, they all use it to stop bleeding. It is inevitable that there will be bumps and bruises in daily life. Just apply a pot bottom ash. The mother of leaves collects them every time.
After scraping, they carried the cauldron to the earth stove again. Ye Mu also put the jar away and couldn't help but give instructions.
"After you finish fasting, each of you will buy an iron pot for your new home. Everything you need to use on the moving day must be prepared in advance."
"I know, we know."
After watching the excitement, the children ran away to play happily.
The adults all went back to their respective rooms to talk.
Return to the small fishing village of 1982.
