This draped linen and filial piety, pay attention to a lot, many people are easy to walk into a misunderstanding, at a glance, all are draped in linen and filial piety, and think that the descendants are the same as the white linen, which is wrong, and the white linen worn by the descendants also needs to be in accordance with the rules.

During the Three Kingdoms period, a system called five costumes was established, and five different mourning clothes were prescribed according to the distance between blood relatives, namely, beheading, Qi decay, great gong, small gong and hemp, and the thickness and production of clothing were slightly different.

According to the original rules, the closer the relationship between the descendants and the deceased, the heavier the mourning clothes, the more distant the blood relationship, and the lighter the mourning clothes.

Because it was too cumbersome to make the five costumes, some of the deceased died more quickly, and for a while, there was not so much time to prepare the five costumes, and the five costumes were gradually replaced by white cloth.

Today, wearing linen and wearing filial piety is no longer really wearing linen and wearing filial piety, but wrapping it around the head with a piece of white cloth, and then leaving a long white cloth behind, a bit like a cloak, and hemp is no longer draped on the body, but tied around the waist with a small piece of hemp. (White cloth: Many shops say that their white cloth is white linen, but it is actually white yarn.) ）

Of course, this is not to say that the rules passed down by the ancestors are forgotten, and the white cloth is used instead of the five clothes to still divide the relatives, and the way to distinguish the relatives is the white cloth hanging behind the back, the length of the white cloth is divided into five types, the white cloth of the eldest son of the deceased is seven feet, the white cloth of the second son and the eldest grandson is six feet three, the daughter and daughter-in-law are five feet seven, and the relatives such as nephews and nephews are divided into whether the deceased is male or female, and the scale is somewhat different.

The deceased on our side was a woman, a nephew was six feet two, and a nephew was five feet four. He was male, his nephew was six feet two, his nephew was five feet four, and the rest of his relatives were four feet eight.

There are a lot of rules in this, and I can't explain it clearly for a while, but it is roughly divided into five types: seven feet, six feet three, five feet seven, five feet four, and four feet eight.

And the white cloth of our eight immortals is two feet, and the white cloth of the people who eat the banquet in the same village is three feet, and these two are not within the range of those five kinds.

Some people must ask, why is the white cloth of the Eight Immortals so short, to be honest, I don't know, this is the rule that the ancestors have been transmitting, whether it is the Three Kingdoms period or now, the white cloth of the Eight Immortals has always been two feet, used to tie it to the arm, to show respect for the deceased.

To get back to the point, I took a general look at the mourning clothes of those people, Liu Kai divided the deceased's goddaughters into the kind of relatives of his daughter, and the length of the white cloth was just right.

Just as I was about to retract my gaze, a figure appeared in my line of sight, only to see that the person was dressed in a Taoist robe with gold and silver threads, with a black and gold-rimmed gossip hat on his head, a pair of cyan and gold-rimmed gossip shoes on his feet, and a gossip bag across his left shoulder, thirty-four or five years old, walking towards Boss Yu.

When I saw this line, my heart tightened, this person should have the ability, otherwise, I wouldn't dare to dress like this, you must know that Taoist priests are extremely particular about clothing, like this kind of robe, people who have no ability, few people dare to wear it, unless that person doesn't want to live.

I don't know what's going on, the man seemed to notice that I was staring at him, stopped the script, looked back at me, frowned, didn't say anything, walked to Boss Yu who was kneeling on the ground, and said a few words in his ear.

Because of the distance, I couldn't hear what they were saying, so I saw Boss Yu stand up suddenly, look at the man with a gloomy face, open his mouth, and judging from the shape of his mouth, it should be, "What you said is true?" ”

The man nodded, stretched out his hand and pointed at the coffin, and then at Liu Kai.

Seeing this, I felt a cold sweat coming out of my back, and the man's meaning was obvious, that is, to tell Boss Yu that there was something under the coffin, and someone wanted to harm Liu Kai.

Guo Fatzi next to him seemed to notice that something was wrong with me, stabbed me with his hand, and asked, "Brother Jiu, are you okay?" ”

I shook my head and said, "It's okay! ”

"Are you alright?" He asked suspiciously, his eyes a little disbelieving me.

I nodded and didn't speak.

"Then why are you holding my hand?" He raised his hand suddenly, and I realized that I didn't know when I was pinching Guo Fatzi's hand.

I smiled awkwardly at him and said, "Don't talk about this, let's go first!" ”

"Why?" Stammering asked aloud.

I didn't know how to answer when he asked me this, so I had to find a random reason to leave here.

However, fate seemed to play a joke on me, and just as I was about to leave, Liu Kai appeared, he jumped on the stage next to the mourning hall with a microphone, and stopped at the stage with a calm face.

With such a simple action, the originally lively scene became silent in an instant.

He glanced at the audience and said, "It's 7:45 a.m., and there are still 15 minutes to go. Just now, the feng shui master next to Boss Yu told me that someone pasted seven pieces of red paper on the bottom of the deceased's coffin, with my name written on them, and you may not know what it means to stick red paper at the bottom of the coffin, so I tell you that as long as the gong that opens the way sounds, I, Liu Kai, will be killed immediately. ”

Speaking of this, he took out a piece of red paper and shook it, his face was hideous, and he roared, "I have only offended Chen Jiu from Aozi Village recently, and the person who pasted the red paper is definitely Chen Jiu's miscellaneous piece, but I didn't expect this miscellaneous piece to ignore the morality of the Eight Immortals, and use his hands and feet on the coffin, wanting to kill me." Who invited Chen Jiu to do a funeral, after returning home, it is best to burn some yellow paper to apologize to the ancestors, in case Chen Jiu moved on the coffin, affecting the fortune of the descendants, and it will die if it is not good, although I Liu Kai is expensive, but I will definitely not do anything on the coffin, do the thing that cut off the children and grandchildren, who will do the funeral in the future, you will watch it yourself. ”

After speaking, Liu Kai stared at the audience for a while, as if looking for my figure, and said angrily: "Chen Jiu, Lao Tzu knows that you are here, you are a man, get out, dare to act, don't shrink into the crowd like a turtle with a shrunken head, if you don't come out today to give Lao Tzu an explanation, after this funeral, don't blame Lao Tzu for going to Aozi Village to trouble your parents." ”

As soon as Liu Kai's voice fell, I was stunned, standing in place for a long time, I wanted to harm Liu Kai first, but I didn't expect that stealing chickens would not make rice, but Liu Kai pushed me to the edge of the cliff.

When I was pasting the red paper, I only thought about harming Liu Kai in my mind, and I didn't think about the consequences, but now I think about it when I was still young and vigorous, and I didn't think about the consequences at all.

"Brother Jiu, what the hell is going on? How can you do anything on the coffin! Guo Fatzi stretched out his hand and poked me, and asked nervously.

"Nothing!" I replied with a blank face, and after that, I was ready to walk in the direction of the stage.

"Brother Jiu, once you admit it, there will be no place for you in Dongxing Town in the future, let me go! No matter from which point of view, I have the opportunity to paste red paper, and it will not arouse Liu Kai's suspicions. The stammerer grabbed me and said lightly.
