Chapter 60 Qingming Ancestor Worship

The four-wheeled carriage was very fragrant, lying on his wife's lap, hugging the second wife and teasing the junior. There is nothing happier in life than this, in my previous life, I didn't have this treatment even at the deputy ministerial level, this thing makes people stab on the Internet, and that is the thing that caused a national uproar. Especially if Xiao San is still a foreigner, such a fragrant gossip must be Baidu Toutiao, and it is a failure if it clicks less than one million.

Alice's snow-white little hand was clenched into a fist, and she thumped Yun Xiao's leg with moderate weight. Yan Xian also obediently pinched Yun Xiao's temples, and Luan Ling used small pliers to crush the hazelnuts one by one on the side. Put the sweet nuts into Yun Xiao's mouth, and it would be better if there was a sip of wine. Yun Xiao has been looking for the grape thing for a long time and hasn't found it, so it seems that he has to go to a few stans in Central Asia to find it, maybe there will be one there.

The Qingming Festival is coming, and every family is preparing to worship their ancestors.

Foreigners put their first name in front of their surname, which represents respect for themselves. Chinese always put the surname in front of the first name, representing respect for ancestors.

Ancestor worship is a major event of the year, and all the students at Tsinghua University go home on vacation. As a backward aristocrat, the Yun family's background is thin, so thin that there is not even an ancestral temple.

Sima Ji is a kind guy who has benefited from Yan Xian. He took on the important task of helping the Yun family find a treasure land of feng shui. Finally, I found a mountain forest fifty miles south of Yunjia, because a light blue jade could always be found here before, so it was named Lantian.

After Mr. Sima's painstaking theoretical research, he said that this place has mountains and rivers and is a suitable place for long sleep. So, since last year, the Yun family has begun to build ancestral halls here. And moved some of the nearby farmers. to show that the Yun family is prosperous.

Anyway, it's all their own fiefdom, and they can toss as much as they want.

In this way, Lantian has changed from a relatively large wasteland to a relatively large village. On a piece of land by the mountains and rivers, the ancestral hall of the Yun family is built magnificently, covering an area of more than five acres. You can see the tall bluestone archway from afar, which is the grace of the Queen Mother. The Yun family was allowed to build a six-zhang-six archway, which was only completed last month under the personal supervision of Master Geng.

The walls cut out of green bricks were painted with white plaster and covered with tiles. The sun reflected the dazzling sunlight in the sun, and the two gates were three feet wide. Opening the gate required the concerted efforts of four servants, and the carriage drove directly into the ancestral hall paved with bluestone slabs.

The four corners of the ancestral hall are hung with copper bells. When it is blown by the wind, it clangs. The sound is distant and ethereal. It gives a feeling of spiritual stirring. Yun Xiao listened to the sound of wind chimes and had a feeling of time and space dislocation. The earth is changing, time is changing, and there are some things that don't change. For example, this empty ringtone, in a moment, Yun Xiao felt as if he had returned to the capital.

The sound of this wind chime is exactly the same as that of Fayuan Temple.

There is only one requirement for the construction of Luan Ling and Yan Xian. That is, regardless of the cost, as long as the wind is pulled. As long as it is not violated. Whatever Master Geng and Sima Ji wanted. The Yun family is now poor and has only money left.

The ebony pillars are painted with various auspicious motifs. All show the solemnity and strictness here, but the main seat is a little worse. Yun Xiao is not dead yet. Your own tablet will definitely not be on the table. Daddy seems to have the impression that he is also in good health, and it is really unlucky to engrave his name on the card.

But if you don't carve your father, you can think about it. Carving a cat or a dog casually, will it mislead future generations? Helpless, Yun Xiao finally had to engrave his father's name on the wooden plaque, sincerely hoping that the father of the future generations would live a long life.

Behind Daddy's card hung a small wooden sign, an inch long and half an inch wide. There are two big characters engraved on it, and Luan Ling has a lot of resentment about Yun Xiao not using Jin Yu to engrave the name tag of his daughter. According to the rules of the Han Dynasty, the immortal card should be hung in the ancestral shrine for one year, and it can only be hung when the child reaches the age of one. With this card, with the blessing of the ancestors, you can live a long and healthy life.

"Money is not on this, this card is the symbol of the Yun family. Only the people who hang this card are the descendants of my Yun family, and if it is difficult to take out the wooden card in the future, recognize each other. No matter what kind of difficulties the other party encounters, they must try their best to help, so that the Yun family can last for all generations.

If you get a golden jade, what if there are poor people in the future who can't afford it? ”

"The Yun family has been rich for generations, how can it be so declining."

Luan Ling pouted and retorted.

"The first emperor is such a big hegemon, and he is not the second to die. There are no more than three generations of wealth, and there is an objective law to this. Don't expect your children and grandchildren to enjoy prosperity forever, as long as they are healthy and upright. ”

"No more than three generations of rich! Husband, don't talk nonsense. ”

The two wives stubbornly believe that the Yun family can become the eternal nobles of the Han Dynasty. As everyone knows, even this big man will always die one day. The wheel of history will not stop moving forward in the face of any obstacles, and what stands in its way will eventually be shattered.

I don't know if the father of the future generation will sneeze, anyway, the two daughters-in-law who were more than 2,000 years ago were worshipping his old man devoutly.

It's still a little three, squatting in front of the brazier and burning all kinds of offerings. On the issue of sacrifices, the Han people are real. Never cheat, real money can't be pointed. But all the food and clothing are true, and there is absolutely no situation where the paper people and paper horses fool the ghosts in later generations. I heard that 200 years ago, even people were burned.

Yun Xiao really couldn't get used to the extravagant style of the big man, so he changed his customs. Find someone to tie the paper man and paper horse, except for the refrigerator and color TV, as long as Yun Xiao came up with it, it was all pierced.

Yan Xian felt that this idea was very good, and the paper cow the size of a real cow pierced more than a hundred heads in one go. Strive to let your father-in-law set up a cattle breeding base in another world. The skillful craftsman folded the yellow paper into the shape of an ingot, and Yun Xiao knew it when he saw the mountain of gold ingots. I'm afraid that Lord Yama is going to have inflation.

In the middle of the altar there was a large circular cement pool, in which all the sacrifices were burned. The flames rose more than a foot high, and paper cows, paper horses, and boys and girls were engulfed in flames. The number is very large, and Yun Xiao thinks that if Daddy rebels in the underworld, it will be almost enough.

Alice kept stuffing the paper man and paper horse into it with a wooden stick, and her fair face was burned red. Yan Xian and Luan Ling were unwilling to do such work, so they joined forces to bully the foreign bride.

Yun Xiao wiped the black ash on Alice's face with his hand, and the result became darker and darker. The beautiful face has a tendency to develop towards Zhang Fei, and Yun Xiao reluctantly stopped. Help Alice stuff paper men and paper horses into the flames, as well as the giant paper cows.

The two mothers-in-law are now looking at Yun Xiao very tightly, as long as Yun Xiao and Alice are sticky, someone will immediately appear in front of them.

Luan Ling suddenly inserted herself between the two of them, took out the second wife's pie and filled the pool with sacrifices indiscriminately.

Stuffed with clouds, it feels wrong, paper cows, paper horses, boys, boys, girls. That's it, pots and pans are understandable. This sword, sword, halberd, axe, hook fork, and more than 20 big men are a bit too much.

One of the big men with a mace is like a bear, and then look at the biggest axe-bearer, isn't it a brute bull.

"You two want our ancestors to go to the underworld to rebel."

Yun Xiao grabbed the bull in his hand and questioned Luan Ling.

"It's not enough to rebel, but burn some guards. If the father-in-law has manpower, it is good that there is someone to use it. Besides, let's send so much gold and silver gadgets, if someone wants to fight ghosts, it's good to have a guard. ”

It's over, this woman has the potential to write supernatural novels.

Yun Xiao felt that there were too many stories to talk about these days, and even Alice was familiar with the gods and demons of the Han Dynasty.

Forget it, let's burn it. That is, the matter of scrapping more paper is not a big deal.

But it's too much for you to burn so many singers, and my father was over seventy when he crossed over. Even if you have this mood, you don't have the strength to do it.

"There must always be a caring person in front of my father-in-law, no, burn some singers can not only sing, dance, and dance. can also wait for my father-in-law, which is also our filial piety. ”

Yan Xian, who had just knelt down, said eloquently.

Yun Xiao was dizzy for a while, and he didn't know if the mother of the future generation would strangle this genuine daughter-in-law.
