Chapter 63 Sacrifice to the Ancestors
After lunch on the ninth day of the first lunar month, Li Jin sent someone to invite Mr. Fan to take care of Ye Ziyun's pulse. Looking at her increasingly rosy face, Mr. Fan nodded to him or her with satisfaction and said, "Well, that's right. At this time, it's very good according to my recipe. If it goes on like this, the girl may go back early."
Ye Ziyun looked at Mr. Fan in surprise and said, "Thank you very much, sir. Don't worry, I will follow your recipe, and I dare not stop for a day."
Li Jin heard from Mr. Fan that if Ye Ziyun recovered quickly, he could go back in advance. He couldn't help blaming him for being talkative. Mr. Fan, who was staring at him with a smile, said, "Don't be careless. It's better to be careful. Don't wait for Yuner to find something to do when she goes back. At that time, you want her to go somewhere."
Mr. Fan knew that what he said just made Li Jin unhappy, so he had to say, "We are not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. We are still not in a hurry. We have to take it slowly. I'll go and change the recipe. This time, eat a little longer. I'll come to see after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month."
Li Jin asked Ye Ziyun to rest first, and he dragged Mr. Fan all the way back to the study of the Wind Tower.
Before Mr. Fan sat down, Li Jin couldn't wait to ask Mr. Fan, "Is Yun'er's body really getting better?"
Mr. Fan said at a glance, "Do you think my title of 'divine doctor' was picked up? She has also been taking care of me for more than three months. How can it not be a big better?"
"I don't doubt your medical skills. It's just that you said it so seriously at the beginning. It's almost good in just a few months. It's so unbelievable."
"You stinky boy, what are you talking about? Which doctor didn't tell his family the worst situation at the beginning. He must have asked them to prepare for the worst."
"How long will it take for Yun'er to recover?"
"The recovery will definitely not be so fast, but if there is no major problem with the body, it will definitely be very fast. As long as it is according to my method in the future, there should be more than half a year to heal."
"Is it okay for Yun'er to have a baby?"
"I just wanted to cure her illness as soon as possible, and I also recovered a problem for you, so I added a warm palace prescription for her from the beginning. You think she drank the medicine for several months for nothing. I, a magic doctor, is not in vain."
"Yes, yes, yes, you are a great doctor." Li Jin continued to flatter him: "I think the wine you returned is almost drunk. I recently asked someone to find some good wine. Why don't you bring some more today?"
Mr. Fan smiled and praised him: "You boy has a conscience. I don't love you for nothing." Li Jin told people to prepare the wine quickly.
Mr. Fan reopened the recipe and told him one by one before he went back with a few jars of good wine.
Li Jin stood at the gate and saw Mr. Fan leave. Thinking that Ye Ziyun had no big problem with even the most difficult problems to solve, he couldn't help but feel good. He grinned and stood at the gate and laughed for a long time. Finally, in the inexplicable eyes of a group of people, he returned to the Wind Tower step by step.
Time finally shook slowly to New Year's Eve. Ye Ziyun was woken up early in the morning by the tinkling sound outside.
Chunlu wore a new small jacket and happily came in with water to serve Ye Ziyun's washing. Ye Ziyun lazily nestled in the warm quilt and didn't want to get up. Chunlu advised Ye Ziyun in a clear voice: "Miss, today is New Year's Eve. Everyone gets up and is busy. Although you don't have to do anything, can you still sleep?"
Ye Ziyun frowned and asked her, "What are you doing outside? Why is it so noisy?"
Chunlu said, "The little boy is hanging lanterns, pasting Spring Festival couplets, and hanging peach charms."
"Why is it so noisy?"
"Listen to them, there were no people living in this courtyard in the past, so there were not many hangings during the Spring Festival. Today, because the young lady lived here, the steward told me to decorate it well and hang more, so it was a little noisy."
Ye Ziyun was covered with a brocade over his head and said angrily, "Anyway, I have nothing to do when I get up. It's so cold. I'll sleep a little longer. You can call me later."
Chunlu looked helplessly at her young lady with her head covered and sighed, "Well, that lady will sleep a little longer. I'll serve you later."
Li Jin originally wanted to discuss with her and wanted her to worship her ancestors together later. When she entered the inner room, she found that it was quiet and there was no one to serve. Looking at the small pile arched up by **, Li Jin smiled. It seemed that Yun'er was still sleeping. So he turned around and sat outside, waited for Chunlu to have tea, and waited for Ye Ziyun to wake up while drinking slowly.
Chunlu stood outside the door and looked at the two people inside and outside through the cracks of the door. One lay unconsciously, and the other waited leisurely. He was really a little anxious. He tried several times to wake up his young lady inside, but every time as soon as he came in, he was stopped by Li Jin with his eyes.
When Ye Ziyun stretched out and asked Chunlu to wait for her to get up, Li Jin could not remember how many cups of tea she had drunk. Anyway, she was just a bellyful of tea.
Ye Ziyun stared at Chunlu, who trotted all the way to the bed and asked her strangely, "Why are you running? I'm not in a hurry."
Chunlu pouted and whispered, "My young lady, I'm not in a hurry, but Mr. Li has been waiting outside for most of the day."
"Then if you don't wake me up, hurry up and serve me."
"I think so, Mr. Li won't let me." Chunlu neatly helped her put on her clothes. Qiu Shuang had heard the noise for a long time and came in with water to serve her to wash.
Ye Ziyun simply cleaned up and immediately came outside to see Li Jin.
Li Jin looked at Ye Ziyun, who was full of sleep, and said, "How did you sleep well?"
Ye Ziyun thought that everyone had been up for most of the day, and she was the only one who didn't get up. She said with a little embarrassment, "Brother Li is really. When you come, let someone wake me up. I have nothing to do. Get up early. It's not too late to sleep later."
Li Jin said, "I don't have anything urgent to call you. It's New Year's Eve today, and I'm not busy. Just wait a minute. It's no big deal."
Ye Ziyun asked him, "Is there anything wrong with Brother Li coming here to see me?"
Li Jin said, "Well, there is something I want to discuss with you." Li Jin looked at her and said, "I'm going to worship my ancestors in the afternoon. I want you to come with me to worship."
Ye Ziyun said with some embarrassment, "This is not good. I'm just your little sister. This status is really not enough to attend your Li family's ancestral ceremony, right?"
"It's not a ceremony, it's just a simple worship. Besides, you are my little sister, and you should go. It's not that you don't know that I haven't had parents and sisters since I was a child. Finally, there is a little sister accompanying me for the Spring Festival this year. I will definitely show it to my parents.
Ye Ziyun is still hesitating: "This...this...is this appropriate?"
Not giving her a chance to refute, Li Jin said, "There's nothing wrong. That's it. I have something else to do, so I'll go first. You can eat something first. I'll prepare it later. I'll send someone to pick you up in the afternoon." After saying that, he raised his feet and left. Ye Ziyun couldn't even disagree.
Ye Ziyun slept until this hour, sooner or later, so he used it with breakfast and lunch. The sacrifice of ancestor is also a formal occasion. Dressing too casually will be rude, so after eating after eating for a while, Chunlu and Qiu Shuang urged her to sit in front of the mirror, draw a good look on her, and dress her up well.
Sitting and his neck was sore, and he was finally done. He was relieved. Ye Ziyun looked at the bronze mirror. He was really good. His crystal clear little face and his cheeks were faintly flushed. He set off a pair of smart big eyes, combing a high flowing cloud bun, while inserting a golden step, he inserted two all-body green orchid hairpins. , purple slanted orchid small brocade jacket, eight skirts of the same color, a small white floral fragrant cloud gauze shawl loosely on the shoulders, and the graceful figure is looming from time to time.
The two little girls tossed around like this. Ye Ziyun felt a little out of energy, but she had just finished packing up and couldn't lie down to rest for a while. She could only sit at the table with her head supported by her hands and fall asleep with her eyes closed.
Just as Ye Ziyun was about to fall asleep, Shuangwu was ordered by Li Jin to invite her to the "Enyuan" dedicated to her ancestors.
When Ye Ziyun arrived at the Enyuan, he knew that the Enyuan was just an independent courtyard, not a family ancestral hall. Li Jin did not set up an ancestral ancestral hall in another courtyard, but a separate small courtyard to come out to worship his parents.
Li Jinyi stood solemnly at the gate of the courtyard waiting for Ye Ziyun's arrival. Looking at Ye Ziyun, who was dressed in a dress, coming from a distance, Li Jin greeted him, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, looked up and down and said, "Well, Yun'er's dress is so beautiful. My parents will be very happy to see it."
Ye Ziyun said, "Really, I'm ugly, and Brother Li's parents don't like it?"
Li Jin was slightly stunned and said, "No, Yun'er is my only little sister now. No matter how Yun'er looks, my parents will like it."
Li Jin motioned her to go in: "Okay, it's all ready. Let's go in."
With Li Jin entering it, it is completely different from what Ye Ziyun imagined. In addition to a "first examination of Xia Hou Gong's Western lotus position" and a "first Xia Hou mother's Western lotus position", there is no other god position on the table. What's more strange is that there is neither taboo nor name in this divine position.
Looking at Ye Ziyun's strange expression, Li Jin knew that she was very confused, but now it was not the time to explain to her, so she could only wait until after worship.
Ye Ziyun waited aside. Li Jin personally lit the incense and handed it to Ye Ziyun three sticks. The two held the incense respectfully side by side and stood in front of the divine throne. Li Jinlang said, "Father and mother are on the top, and a year has passed again. Please rest assured that the son is one year older. Please The spirit of heaven must bless his son's prosperous business every year. He smiled and then said, "Last year, I promised that I would bring a daughter-in-law to show you this year. My son has been busy for a year, but it doesn't matter. Although it's too late for my daughter-in-law this year, I met a good little sister who also saved her son's life, so please bless her health. And it's getting more and more beautiful."
Ye Ziyun seemed to say this deliberately in front of him, and his face suddenly turned red to the back of his neck. But he could not be presumptuous in front of the sages, so he had to say respectfully to the divine position, "Uncle and aunt, I'm really sorry. I'm going to celebrate the Spring Festival here this year. Please forgive me for disturbing you."
Li Jin said to the divine throne, "Don't worry, Yun'er. With you with me for the Spring Festival, it's too late for my parents to be happy. How can I blame you for disturbing me?"
After saying that, he pulled Ye Ziyun and bowed respectfully to the divine throne. After worshipping, Li Jin pulled Ye Ziyun out of the room.
