I broke my leg running on New Year’s Day.
According to the custom in the north, every year on the first day of the Lunar New Year, people go to the homes of their fellow villagers and neighbors to congratulate them on the New Year. First go to the person with the highest seniority in the village, then to the oldest person, and then to your relatives, friends, neighbors and friends.
In the past, Fang Yixing went door-to-door on behalf of the Fang family. Some people comforted him, some made fun of him, and many people pulled Fang Yixing to beg him to fight with him.
It is a well-known fact that Fang Yixing did not like Kung Fu and gave up martial arts to follow Wenfu. Isn't it intentional to insult them by dragging Fang Yixing to compete with him in martial arts
Fang Yixing could refuse again and again, and then let them make fun of him for a while. The Fang family's momentum gradually declined.
Next year, Fang Huwei asked Fang Yan to go with Fang Yixing to celebrate the New Year. The old man had spoken, and Fang Yan could not disobey him, so he just got up early and wore the blue gown and thousand-layer cloth boots that his mother had prepared for him in advance. The boots are made in an antique style to prevent the deep snow outside from getting into the shoes and getting the socks wet.
Fang Yixing still wears simple round-top cloth shoes. The head of the family always wants to have the air of an elegant elder. No matter how cold it is, you have to bear it. That's the so-called pursuit of style rather than temperature.
The most respected person in Yanziwu is Mr. Fou, and everyone in Yanziwu has to go to pay New Year's greetings to him first. The Ye family is known as the first family in Yanziwu, and their family has to send someone as a representative to celebrate the New Year for their husband. When the father and son walked over, there were already many people rushing in front of them.
The husband finally took off the old gray-brown leather jacket and changed into a silver-red Tang suit. He walked uprightly in the living room with a mahogany chair in front of him, receiving the kneels and salutes of young people and children. There are also some middle-aged people who kneel down and kowtow, but most middle-aged people do not bend down to bow.
After the children finished kowtowing, they handed over the gift boxes in their laps.
Hong Xiu, who was standing next to the gentleman, took the gift box. The gentleman stretched out his legs to touch the child's head and said, "You can go to the clan to learn enlightenment."
If not, the child kowtows again. The parents of the children also expressed their gratitude with joy.
Some children who are already studying in the family school will also give them in the gift box. The teacher touches the student's head and says: "There is more than enough cleverness, but not enough patience. We should use our family's school stone to hone the Qi method and polish the mind."
The students bowed their heads to receive instruction, and the parents also expressed their gratitude.
All unenlightened children in Yanziwu seek permission from the teacher to enroll. Students who are already studying will receive comments from their teacher, who will point out their strengths and weaknesses and point out solutions to the problems. Fang Yixing glanced at Fang Yan sternly and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Sir, you are dedicated to serving the public. What is a gift worth? According to him, you should come to thank Sir every year and festival."
Fang Yan was helpless, whether his father was too rigid. Just joking when I'm bored.
Not only his father, but also many people in Yanziwu have developed the habit of being rigid. Is this the reason why Mr. Xi has always emphasized that every family wants to send some outstanding children out of Ziren, and it is also the reason why Lu Daoling wants to send out some outstanding young people.
Only with a big vision can we have a big heart and a big vision. It is not a good thing that Yanziwu is closed to himself, and there are also many things outside that are not the best. Taking the essence and discarding the dross is the status quo that Yanziwu needs to change most.
Fang Yanming was red, so he went out.
Fang Yixing may be famous, but his character cannot be developed overnight. Instead, he is carried forward by the village's stereotypes and is unwilling to make new changes.
Finally it was the turn of the Fang family father and son. Fang Yixing and Fang Yan both knelt down and kowtowed to their husbands seriously.
After Fang Yixing said auspicious words on behalf of the Fang family, Fang Yan presented the gift box in his lap.
The husband looked at Fang Yan with a smile and said, "My boy is too naughty, and I usually can't catch my boy's head."
Fang Yan said aggrievedly: "Sir, have you wronged him? When did he not come to kowtow to me during the Spring Festival? He kowtowed just now. Is it too little for me to ask him to kowtow to me a few more times?"
The teacher was very happy to see Fang Yan and said, "Kowtow is unnecessary. My boy has three hearts and a dozen courages. He has nothing to say when he wrongs me, and he has nothing to teach me. Just remember his promise." It’s done.”
Fang Yan nodded seriously and said, "Sir, he remembers."
The husband looked at Fang Yixing and said, "Yixing has a good son."
Fang Yixing's face flushed and he thanked him repeatedly.
From the beginning to the end, the gentleman never mentioned the sword he lost.
The husband didn't say anything, and Fang Yan wouldn't take the initiative to talk about it.
Both pretended that it never happened.
Hong Xiu looked at Fang Yan and everyone with a gentle smile.
After Fang Yan got up from the ground, Cuo Hongxiu said, "I beg you if you are tired of standing, please let him stand for me for a while."
Hong Xiu refused indifferently and said: "If you have something to do, I will do your best. Disciples will naturally try their best to deal with your matter."
Fang Yan was helpless. Hong Xiu's words hit Fang Yan's pain point.
Hong Xiu is Mr. Feng's disciple, but Fang Yan is not Mr. Feng's disciple.
Hong Xiu can be a teacher in the Clan School, but Fang Yan has no chance to be a teacher in the Clan School.
The husband imparted all he had learned in his life to Hong Xiu, and Hong Xiu became the heir to his legacy. What he said was fair and aboveboard, and others really couldn't compete with him for that position.
After leaving his husband, Fang Yixing took Fang Yan and rushed towards the Ye family.
The ancestor of the Ye family is now the oldest person in Yanziwu, and the Ye family is also a family that is relatively close to the Fang family. And with the secret instruction from Mr. Fang Huwei, Fang Yixing would naturally not go against his father's wishes.
When the Fang family and his son passed by, Ye Fengsheng, who was wearing a red cotton Tang suit and looked like a giant lucky doll, was about to go out. When he saw Fang Yan, he said happily: "Why did I get up so early? He wanted to go and kowtow to Mr. After I bow my head, I will go and kowtow to our Grandpa Fang.”
"He was also pulled up by force." Fang Yan said with a smile. "He has already been there, sir, and now he comes to kowtow to our ancestors."
In fact, I would like to kowtow to the ancestors of the Ye family, but the ancestors of the Ye family have been reluctant to see guests in those years. So I don’t mind coming to Ye’s house for a formality.
"They just missed it." Ye Fengsheng said regretfully.
"Where's the third uncle?"
"Third uncle rushed back to Yanjing overnight after the New Year's Eve dinner yesterday morning, and I would like to accompany the Prime Minister on a visit abroad tomorrow," Ye Fengsheng said.
Ye Daowen walked out of the door, saw the Fang family and his son, and said, "Happy New Year, Fang Yan. Happy New Year, Fang Yan."
"Brother Ye, happy New Year." Fang Yixing and Ye Daowen saluted with clasped fists.
"Uncle, he came to wish me New Year's greetings." Fang Yan said with a smile. "My blessings are as good as the East Sea, and my longevity is as long as the Southern Mountains." "
Ye Daowen swung his legs and said, "Tell those words to our ancestors. Our ancestors just sent a message, saying that our father and son will go directly to Wenge Pavilion when they arrive. He will not entertain us, and he has to go and wish Mr. New Year."
Fang Yixing was overjoyed and said, "Brother Ye, go ahead. They are going to Yan Pavilion to kowtow to their ancestors."
Otherwise, the two groups of people separated at the entrance of the courtyard.
Fang Yixing was extremely emotional and whispered to Fang Yan: "It's true that he took advantage of me that time. He came to kowtow to his ancestors during the Spring Festival before, but he never entered the Nuan Pavilion."
"Ancestor Ke Ke will be in a very good mood next year." Fang Yan said with a smile.
Fang Yixing glanced at his son with a smile and did not shut up. I thought, maybe what my father said is really feasible.
Just the attitude of the Ye family brothers - they were afraid that Ye Xiang would have a hard time.
The father and son of the Fang family entered the warm pavilion, and the three ancestors of the Ye family, Ye Wenwen and maid Xier were walking on the warm kang and playing long cards.
Fang Yixing was the first to kneel to the east and kowtow to his ancestor three times. And said a lot of blessings.
I'm kneeling down, how can my son stand? Fang Yan also quickly knelt behind Fang Yixing.
When the Fang family's father and son knelt down, Ye Wenrou and the girl Xi'er stepped aside. The Fang family's father and son couldn't bear it if they knelt down for their ancestors.
"Okay, okay, everyone, get up." The ancestor smiled with his eyes narrowed. "I've been listening to us talking about the longevity of Nanshan Mountain all day long. Who can live longer than a mountain? Wouldn't that make him a living fossil?"
"Ancestor, some mines were dug out within three or two years," Fang Yan said. "I've always lived much longer than those mountains."
The ancestor couldn't help but laugh out loud, pointed at Fang Yan and said, "You know how to make that little monkey happy when you hit him."
"Maybe he was not well-disciplined. My ancestors did not seek to be as knowledgeable as those children." Fang Yixing apologized with a smile. He also saw that his ancestor was not really angry with Fang Yan.
"How can we control whether a child will become a genius or not? Can it be taught?" said the ancestor. "That boy Fang Yan is very good. We at Yanziwu are not like outsiders, they are all top-notch talents. Last morning when we were having dinner, the third child praised him very much."
The third child mentioned by the ancestors is Ye Daoling, the third child of the three tigers of the Ye family. Ye Daoling praised Fang Yan during the New Year's Eve dinner. He really thanked Fang Yan for his help, and at the same time he encouraged the children of the Ye family to work hard in progress. the meaning of.
No wonder when Fang Yan came in just now, he saw those people from the Ye family looking at him with a somewhat unflattering look, as if he had stolen their chickens and set up an "ambush on all sides."
Can I consider Fang Yan’s feelings when I do this
In Fang Yan's opinion, Ye Daoling, that old fox, was just trying to attract hatred for him.
