Chapter 125
Xia Ye stood up from the chair after hearing what the eldest son said, "Father and your younger brother, let me go for a walk in the garden with you."

After they left, Fang Qing asked his sister-in-law sitting in the yard, "Jing Fan, why don't you go for a walk in the garden with Dad and the others."

Zhang Jingfan sat on the chair shaking her short legs and ate a piece of cake, "The fathers are men and love flowers and plants. They go to the yard to look at the flowers and trees. I am here to accompany my sister-in-law."

After hearing what she said, Fang Qing squeezed her face, "Go, sister-in-law will take you to the training ground."

Zhang Jingfan heard her sister-in-law talk about the martial arts training ground, and looked at her sister-in-law with eyes that were exactly the same as Zhang Zelin, "Sister-in-law, is the martial arts training ground in the mansion the same as the one at Sister Mengqi's house? Why did she ask that? It's not their third child." When only bragging and chatting, Sun Mengqi mentioned the martial arts training ground in her house.

Fang Qing carried her down, took her by the hand and walked towards the training ground she had set up some time ago.

When Zhang Jingfan followed his sister-in-law to the training ground, he saw swords, spears, iron fists, bows and arrows placed on the square... and shouted loudly: "Sister-in-law, why are there so many weapons here?"

Fang Qing walked to the place where the weapons were placed, and picked up a sword, "These are things for daily practice."

"Wow!" Zhang Jingfan heard that it was used for martial arts on weekdays, imitating his sister-in-law with a sword, and started practicing martial arts in the field.

Seeing that she practiced well, Fang Qing thought about this girl, since Tian Shuang'er learned martial arts with them, she practiced martial arts more seriously than when she started.

Zhang Jingfan practiced a set of swordsmanship and walked up to his sister-in-law. Seeing that she had improved a lot this time, Fang Qing encouraged her with a few words.

Fang Qing and Zhang Jingfan stayed in the training ground for a while, went to find Fu Lang and his father-in-law to eat at the restaurant, and after they had finished eating, they went shopping on the street.

Seeing someone selling couplets, Zhang Zelin said, "My wife, should we buy some red paper and write some couplets to stick on the gate?"

"Yes, you and your father-in-law wait here for a while, and I'll go buy some back." Fang Qing thought about the new year and new weather, bought a few pieces of red paper and wrote a few couplets on the door for auspiciousness.

Xia Ye saw his daughter-in-law going to buy couplets, and he saw that the people buying red paper were all women, and it was not easy for men to surround them to buy them, so he told his daughter-in-law to help him buy a few pairs.

Fang Qing and the boss bought some red paper, put the paper in the carriage, and then took the men to buy other things, and returned to the village after they finished shopping.

Xia Ye went to her son's house, put the things he bought in the back basket, and was about to take the two children home. When she left, she didn't forget to say, "Girl Qing, brother Lin, you two remember to calculate the moving date tomorrow morning." !"

Seeing that Zhang Zelin was about to go back, he did not forget to remind him and his wife, "Daddy, I will remind my wife tomorrow morning."

Fang Qing was reminded by her father-in-law, and took her husband to Qingxin Temple early the next morning. On the way, she thought that fortunately she was busy cleaning up the house these two days, and she didn't let him go after the pig slaughter that day. The two apprentices came to practice martial arts at home, otherwise they would not be able to bring their husband to the monastery early in the morning.

When Zhang Zelin went to the temple, he wore a tiger skin cloak made for him by his wife, and followed his wife to find the abbot.

Fang Qing found the host and counted the days for their husband and wife. When the host figured out that they could move on the eighth day of the first lunar month, she gave the monastery some money for sesame oil before taking him home.

After Zhang Zelin got home, he took off his cloak and said, "My wife, I'm really tired outside. Fortunately, it's not so cold to wear this cloak to keep out the cold."

Fang Qing lit the fire, added some charcoal and said, "Winter in the south is not that cold, but winter in the north is much colder than this."

Zhang Zelin thought that it was already cold enough, and the wife-leader said that the north was colder than this, so how cold would it be, "Wife-leader, is it really cold in the north?"

Fang Qing didn't know how cold the north of this world was. According to where she was in the last world, the north was much colder than the south.

While the husband and wife were chatting, Xia Ye hurried over and asked, "Girl Qing, Brother Lin, what day do you two go to the host to calculate?"

Seeing the people who came to the house, Zhang Zelin asked his father to sit down and enjoy the fire, Xia Ye came to ask, he was busy going back to clean up the dust in the house!

Zhang Zelin saw that his father was in a hurry to go back, he smiled and said, "The host said that we will move on the eighth day of the first lunar month."

Xia Ye heard that the calculated time was the eighth day of the first lunar month, so she told her daughter-in-law to remember to tell the old lady them, and hurried back.

After Xia Ye left, Fang Qing also got up to look at the house to see if there were any places that hadn't been cleaned up properly.

On the day of the New Year's Eve, the villagers of Zhangjia Village prepared paper money, incense and the like, and went to the mountains to worship the deceased relatives of their ancestors, meaning to invite the deceased relatives to come back for the New Year.

Fang Qing took out the offerings and said to Fu Lang, who had a forced smile, "Brother Lin, do you want to ask your father-in-law when you will go to worship your mother?"

Zhang Zelin is thinking about another new year today. In the past few years, he would go to pay homage to his mother who died every year with his father, younger brother and sister. This year he married his wife and wanted to take his wife to see look.

When he was feeling sad, he heard the voice of his wife, "My wife, I'm going right away."

Before he could go to his mother's house, he heard Xia Ye's voice at the door, "Brother Lin, are you and Qing girl ready?"

Hearing his father-in-law's voice, Fang Qing picked up the basket he had prepared in advance, took her husband to the door, and went to pay respects to her mother-in-law with her father-in-law.

When she followed her to the place where her mother-in-law was buried, she looked at the grass-covered mound in front of her, and took her husband and sister Zhang Jingfan to clean up the grass. After the two women finished cutting the grass, Zhang Zelin and the others put up the offerings.

When Xia Ye was lighting the incense, she nagged at Zhang Sheng's tombstone for a while, and after he finished nagging, she introduced their daughter-in-law Fang Qing.

Hearing what his father-in-law said, Fang Qing symbolically knelt down in front of Zhang Sheng's grave and kowtowed three times.

When they worshiped and prepared to go back, Zhang Zelin pulled her hand, "My wife, do you want to burn incense sticks for your father-in-law and mother-in-law?"

Hearing her words, Fang Qing thought for a while, took out three incense sticks from the basket and lit them, and put the incense sticks in the east corresponding to the rising sun.

As for why she put the incense in the east, because she heard a legend when she was a child, the legend said, "If you lose your way, please keep walking with the rising sun in the east, and you will find your way home."

Zhang Zelin saw that his wife put the incense in the position corresponding to the east, and thought about the location of his wife's house, could it be in the east?
Fang Qing didn't know what Fu Lang was thinking. After offering the good incense, he checked to see if there would be a fire nearby. After making sure that the incense they lit was not dangerous, he followed Xia Ye and the others back.

After arriving home, the husband and wife misplaced the ingredients that had just been taken out, and started to cook the New Year's Eve dinner. At [-] o'clock in the afternoon (five o'clock), the New Year's Eve dinner was ready and served on the table.

Zhang Zelin set up the meals, took a firecracker and Fang Qing said, "My wife, go and set off the firecrackers."

Fang Qing took the firecrackers from Fu Lang's hand, hung them on the tree outside the door and lit them. After the firecrackers rang, she went back to the living room to have New Year's Eve dinner with Fu Lang.
