It is said that Chinese have no faith, but in fact, Chinese have faith, and faith is ancestor worship.

There is no ancestor worship in the white world, because the religion of the white man does not allow people to worship idols other than God.

Those banana people who have studied English for several years and know a few foreigners turn around and laugh at the Chinese, saying what the Chinese are about.

It's nothing more than the cultural differences between China and the West, and then I worship the West and look back at my original culture.

Zhou Peng is quite fond of traditional Chinese culture, including those red and white ceremonies, as well as different customs and habits in various places, he respects and likes them all.

Traditional Chinese ancestor worship not only respects the near ancestors, and worships the tablets of the father, ancestor, great-grandfather, high ancestor and Taizu during the New Year's holidays, but also respects the distant ancestors, and all Han people recognize the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor as their ancestors. Of course, in the traditional sense, the Yellow Emperor, the Yan Emperor and the Chiyou are the three ancestors of the Chinese nation.

Under the inheritance of this clan concept, in modern times, when there is still a major event in the family, it is the people from the close branches of the family who come to help. I will help you if your family has something, you will help me if there is something in my family, no matter whether you are rich or poor, everyone will come forward, which not only gives face to the people who do it, but also leaves a way for yourself in the future.

Zhou Peng and Meng Chaoyuan got married today, and the Zhou family and Zhou Shihong and his close branches all came over.

When a family comes, there are a lot of people, and the most important job is actually to persuade alcohol.

Banquet etiquette is an important part of Chinese etiquette, especially in Luzhong.

Not everyone in Luzhong drinks a lot, but the biggest feature of Luzhong banquet is that it lasts a long time.

At 11 o'clock in the morning, the banquet was opened, and ten bowls were served first, and the escort staff selected by the host himself persuaded the guests to drink.

At this time, the guests who understand the customs must do their best to excuse themselves and drink less.

And then this small banquet, the time is quite short, less than one o'clock in the afternoon, almost finished.

Under normal circumstances, this one, it is okay to let the guests drink half a catty of wine.

Then, the person in charge of accompanying the guests led the guests to drink tea, play poker and chat, or just walk around.

Then at two o'clock in the afternoon, the real banquet begins.

The dishes on this banquet are all big pots and plates, all hard dishes, and a table is filled, and then at this time, the wine accompaniment has to do everything in his power to persuade the guests to drink.

Starting at two o'clock and drinking until four o'clock, either the guest does not open his mouth to drink a drop of wine, as long as he opens his mouth and pours in a catty, it is not uncommon.

By four o'clock, the guests had already drunk a pound and a half.

Then it was lively, and the next task was to go to the banquet by the people in the family, carry the plates, and persuade them to drink one by one.

This procedure is a must-have, on the one hand, to persuade alcohol, and on the other hand, to meet new people.

For example, if there are guests of the same generation as Zhou Shihong, then the Zhou family's "world" generation will have to persuade the wine;

This time, one of the male guests who came to see off Meng Chaoyuan was of the same generation as Zhou Shihong, so then the 15 brothers in the descendants of the Zhou family all needed to go to the men's table to persuade them to drink.

The men's seat advises wine, each person serves a plate, the plate is the plate for delivering food, and two wine cups of three coins and three are placed on the plate, and each person is advised to have two cups, these 15 people add up, but it is another pound of wine.

Of course, when it was time to persuade the drinkers, the guests did not drink so much to drink all the wine, anyway, they tried to excuse themselves and drink as little as possible.

But it's less, this time, not only the children of the world, but also the Yuanzi generation and the Chengzi generation, take turns to fight, and without a pound of wine, it can't be over.

The customs of marriage and marriage in Luzhong are almost the same, which is the case.

It's now half past three in the afternoon, Zhou Shitong counted the people of the world's generations, and after the people are all together, wait until four o'clock, and start toasting.

As the saying goes, if you don't eat and eat a toast, this kind of banquet has a lot of exquisiteness, once you say the wrong thing and are caught by others, this penalty wine eats more than toasting.

If you don't understand the customs of Luzhong, you have to sit at such a banquet, and drinking two catties of wine is considered less, and you are allowed to make clear arrangements at the end of the day.

Less than four o'clock, the men and women were almost all together, and the small courtyard of Zhou Peng's house was full of sixty or seventy people.

Some of Zhou Peng's neighbors heard that Zhou Peng's daughter-in-law was beautiful, and they all ran to Zhou Peng's house, holding the west door of Zhou Peng's house and peeking at it.

Indeed, there is no such thing as not pretty.

After a whole circle of drinking, everyone heard that in the men's seat in the east room, the big guy's voice was getting louder and louder.

Then as soon as four o'clock came, the women of the Zhou family took red wine, white wine, and ladies of champagne and went to the women's table to persuade them to drink, while the men of the Zhou family went to the men's table to persuade them to drink.

After a period of persuasion, and finally a boiled ball, this banquet is considered complete.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, the wine escort carried the guests who had been drunk and staggered out of the east house.

The two guests shook hands with Zhou Shihong with a smile, then went to the toilet, and then got into the car with Meng Chaoyuan and the two women.

Zhou Shihong and his family told Qiu Liang tightly that they must send each other home.

After sending everyone away, the banquet of the Zhou family here officially began.

There are still a lot of leftover meals at the banquet, and then a few dishes are fried, and the family works together to eat a family dinner around the table. This dinner party is also said to be called smashing gongs.

When a family eats, they don't pay attention to the rules, those who are willing to drink open the bottle and pour the wine themselves, and those who don't want to drink are not persuaded by anyone.

If you have a place to sit, you can sit and eat, and if you don't have a place to sit, you just need a pair of chopsticks anyway.

Zhou Peng held a small bowl with a few mouthfuls of tofu in it, stood in the patio and ate his meal, greeting everyone with a smile.

As soon as the guests left, the smashed gong began, and the meal was eaten quickly, starting at five o'clock and finishing before six o'clock.

Then the men chatted, drank tea, played poker, and the women brushed pots and dishes and went about housework.

After a while, the women finished their housework, and there were only a few spectators left to play poker, and then the main house began to quiet.

Then, the wives of the men who played poker persuaded their husbands to go back so that the head of the house could rest, and the busyness ended at eight o'clock.

Looking at the somewhat empty courtyard, Zhou Peng frowned, thinking about the excitement just now.

In the world, there is no banquet that will not be dispersed, and suddenly Zhou Peng remembered something, and hurriedly said to his parents: "Dad, I'll go out for a while." ”

Then he went out of the house.
