Chapter 10 Double Happiness
When Zhang Fugui looked at the weak Jianmei and said these words hard, tears flowed endlessly. Jianmei knew that if he didn't let his husband Fugui cry, he would definitely feel more uncomfortable and more blame himself. Therefore, Jianmei did not stop his husband Fugui from crying anymore, so he let him cry hard, and it would be best to cry all the sadness and discomfort.
Zhang Banxian returned home and prepared for the guys' affairs and hurried to Zhang Youcai's house. Zhang Youcai was happy to see Zhang Daxian bringing all the things with him, and had already put aside his sadness and discomfort just now. Zhang Youcai walked up and said, "Banxian, you see, this guy is ready, can you start?"
Zhang Banxian muttered, rubbing his thumb with his index finger and middle finger on both sides. Zhang Youcai lived for most of his life and knew that Zhang Banxian wanted some money, after all, there was no vain lunch in the world.
Zhang Youcai stammered and said to Zhang Banxian, "Banxian, I know what you mean, but... but old man, my situation is not particularly good either! Look... can you slowly... wait until the old man's family is better in the future and make up for you."
After hearing this, Zhang Banxian said anxiously: "It's not that I want to ask for money for you, but I can't invite the gods without money. If the gods think you have no sincerity, then the gods will punish you very much. If Jianmei can't give birth to a baby in the future, you must not blame me."
After hearing what Zhang Banxian said, Zhang Youcai was so scared that his sweat beads rolled down from time to time, and then said anxiously: "Banxian, I will give it to... I will give it to you. Even if I am old, I will have to let Jianmei and Fugui continue our old man's incense."
As Zhang Youcai said that, he took off his belt and carefully took out some scattered money hidden in the belt. Because Zhang Youcai had not had the habit of taking a bath for a long time, the money was stinking. Zhang Banxian stood aside and looked at it in a daze. He was a little disgusting when he smelled the smell, but no matter how disgusting it was, it was money, and he still wanted it.
"Half-immortal! Look at how much money the gods are worth!" Zhang Youcai said.
Zhang Banxian slanted and looked at the money in Zhang Youcai's hand and said, "The more money you give to the gods, the better it is! The more you give to the gods, the more you feel that you are sincere, and this ritual will be done faster."
Zhang Youcai put his fingers in his mouth and licked them, counting the money scattered in his hands one by one. After all, this money was squeezed out from his teeth for many years, just to wait until Fugui has a baby before buying some supplements for Fugui's wife to eat. But now there is really no way to use the money.
Zhang Youcai is not a wealthy mistress. He is happy to think that the money is worth it. When he thinks that this money can help his son wealth, he laughs even more from ear to ear.
Zhang Banxian, who was standing beside him, looked at Zhang Youcai constantly counting the stenched money, and said anxiously: "Youcai, the noon is coming soon, but you must not delay the time. Don't count it, just think that it's spending money to buy peace! Otherwise, when you count it, all the gods will leave."
After hearing this, Zhang Youcai quickly handed the money in his hand to Zhang Banxian, for fear that it would take time. Zhang Banxian took the money and forced himself to hold the stench emitted by the money into his bag, preparing to start the ritual.
The villagers gathered around Zhang Youcai's doorstep and watched Zhang Banxian cast a spell to invite the gods. Zhang Banxian muttered some languages that the villagers couldn't understand. He burned yellow paper and took a sip of water into his mouth, then spit out the water. He held a peach wood sword in his hand and opened his teeth and claws outside Zhang Youcai's doorstep. Seeing this, the people in the village couldn't help laughing.
Zhang Banxian performed a ritual at Zhang Youcai's doorstep, just like a decent job, and Zhang Youcai also watched a ritual for several hours. After the ritual was finished, Zhang Banxian stopped. Zhang Youcai hurriedly came up and asked, "Banxian, what's going on?"
Zhang Banxian responded and said, "The ritual has been completed. From now on, your son Fugui and Jianmei will be harmonious and peaceful."
Zhang Youcai asked in confusion: "Banxian, didn't you say you wanted to do the ritual of 7749 days? Why was it over in just a while?"
Zhang Banxian said to himself: "Oh my goodness, if I really do the ritual of 49 days, it would not be to exhaust me half to death, but I had to explain it to Zhang Youcai."
Zhang Banxian thought of a good way and said to Zhang Youcai: "Youcai, you gave more money just now, which moved the gods. The gods came sooner. This illegal ritual has changed from 49 days to several hours. This can be considered as the accumulation of good deeds from your Zhang Youcai family!"
After hearing this, Zhang Youcai smiled happily and shouted to Fugui and his daughter-in-law Jianmei in the house: "Fugui, Jianmei, have you heard it? Our family will be safe in the future!"
Zhang Banxian cleaned up the matter and said goodbye to Zhang Youcai and returned home by himself. At this time, the villagers who were watching the fun slowly dispersed.
Zhang Youcai walked into the house happily and said to Fugui and Jianmei: "Fugui, Jianmei, our family will be better in the future."
After hearing his father's words, Zhang Fugui couldn't laugh, and still lowered his head and shed tears. Only Jianmei responded.
As time passed, Jianmei's body became better. Jianmei thought to ask for a baby with Fugui again so that the family could be more lively. At first, Fugui was immersed in self-blame, so every night when he went to bed, he always curled up and slept alone, without paying attention to Jianmei at all. It was not until Jianmei whispered in his ears for a while that he cheered up and decided to ask for another baby with Jianmei.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and every household in the village looks at each other and laughs. This year, every household has cooked a pot of fragrant white rice. Although these white rice is not enough for the family, people's eyes are shining with light when they look at the crystal clear and cooked rice grains, and their eyes are wide open, and they swallow from time to time.
This year, every household in Zhangjia Village ate big white rice. Although they still couldn't eat enough, for them, this is the most delicious food in the world.
After the New Year, the winter snow gradually melted and ushered in the second spring of Zhangjia Village. Zhang Fugui's wife Li Jianmei also became pregnant. Zhangjia Village still implemented a responsibility system according to households. When it was almost time to sowing, they rushed to the fields when it was dark, showing off their strength happily.
The farmers in the village are always happy to see the fields they contracted. The crops in the fields are getting more and more luxuriant. The villagers are looking forward to the autumn this year to come earlier and there will be more harvests. Some families want to wait for the harvest and drag their relationship to find a marriage for their children, while others want to exchange the grains of rice from the harvest for a few feet of cloth to make decent clothes for themselves or their family members.
Several months have passed again. As the saying goes, spring and autumn come, the golden rice grains in the crops in the fields bent over the wheat ears, which also makes the farmers very happy.
Zhang Fugui's wife Li Jianmei was walking carefully at home with a big belly, but it made Fugui a little worried because Jianmei's belly was too big, so big that he was a little afraid of the situation that last time would happen.
Seeing that his wife Li Jianmei was about to give birth, Zhang Fugui's father Zhang Youcai said to Fugui with a smile: "Fugui! When your mother had you, I gave you your name, so you were born white and fat and more solid. So my father wanted to tell you that you can name the baby in Jianmei's belly first, which will be easier to give birth."
Zhang Fugui smiled and touched his head, not knowing how to name it. After all, he has never read a book since he was a child, so he only knows how to write his own name. It is indeed a bit too difficult for him to name his own baby.
Zhang Fugui walked to the stone trunk outside the house and sat up, frowned tightly, thought about many names, muttering to himself in his heart, "The first child that Jianmei gave birth to me was killed because I was a tough life. I dare not again... so I can afford a good name.
Suddenly, Zhang Fugui thought of the word "peaceful and peaceful" that people often say, and happily patted his pants legs with his hands, and said happily, "Peaceful, peaceful, just call him Zhang Ping'an."
After Zhang Fugui gave his name, he hurriedly walked into the house and told his father Zhang Youcai and his wife Li Jianmei about this name. After hearing this, his father Zhang Youcai smiled and said to Fugui: "It is worthy of being my Zhang Youcai. I gave him a good name, Ping An, Ping An, Ping An, Ping An, Ping An, this name is good."
In order to allow his daughter-in-law Li Jianmei to give birth to the baby in her stomach safely this time, Zhang Youcai went to the east end of the village to find her midwife Aunt Liu. Since Aunt Liu delivered Li Jianmei last time, she has seen Zhang Youcai and Zhang Fugui hide far away in the village, for fear that they would embarrass her.
Not only that, Zhang Youcai came to the east end of the village and saw Aunt Liu far away, and shouted, "Aunt Liu". When Aunt Liu heard someone calling her, she looked up and looked up. When Aunt Liu saw that the person who called her was Zhang Youcai, she was afraid to go straight into the room.
When Zhang Youcai saw Aunt Liu crying into the house when he heard her calling her, Zhang Youcai felt a little strange. He didn't know why Aunt Liu was as scared as a mouse to death when she saw him.
Zhang Youcai hurried to Aunt Liu's house and shouted to Aunt Liu's house, "Aunt Liu, I have something to do to find you, come out."
When Aunt Liu heard Zhang Youcai shouting at the door to ask her to go out, Aunt Liu became even more scared and trembled all over, thinking that Zhang Youcai was here to settle the score later.
Zhang Youcai shouted a few times, but saw that there was no reaction in the room, so he was about to walk into the room. When Zhang Youcai walked into the room, he saw Aunt Liu standing alone and trembling, and his lips trembling from time to time. Aunt Liu looked at Zhang Youcai in front of him and suddenly fell soft and collapsed on the ground, saying, "It's not my fault...it's not my business!
Zhang Youcai heard Aunt Liu talk randomly and felt something was inexplicable, so he opened his mouth and said, "Aunt Liu, what's wrong with you? Who scared you like this!"
