Is this another miracle?

Who is the young man who is born in the end?

What did he do to his wife?

Cheng Wanli quietly continued to accept the toast from the clansmen.

After the banquet dispersed, Cheng Wanli broke up the crowd and asked the people to go home and rest for tomorrow's all-day ancestor worship activities on the grounds that they were tired from the long journey and fatigue of the journey.

After everyone retreated, Cheng Wanli called Zhuo Feng and the three of them from the guest room to the hall.

Cheng Wanli opened the package on a sandalwood table in the middle of the hall, took out a calligraphy and painting from it, and slowly unfolded it.

Chen Xiaoyan looked at it from a distance and found at a glance that it was the half of the calligraphy and painting she had come here to find.

It's just that this calligraphy and painting is more well preserved, and there are not many places where the color is yellow, it seems that this Cheng always really likes this calligraphy and painting, and has been well preserved.

"Along the way, I have thought about a lot of things, and today I really sincerely thank the three of you, especially Mr. Zhuo Feng, I am afraid that I will not be able to repay my old companion for his rescue hand. Since the first time Zhou Yixiang went to the United States to ask for calligraphy and painting, I have always been worried about this calligraphy and painting, afraid that it will be lost to unscrupulous businessmen.

"But after hearing in the car that you are the granddaughter of Chairman Chen Yucai, I had a bold idea, instead of letting this national treasure go overseas, it is better for your grandfather to get these two half-pictures of calligraphy and painting and combine them into one, which can show the value of this calligraphy and painting. ”

Cheng Wanli turned his head and said to Chen Xiaoyan.

stroked the calligraphy and painting with his hand, his face was full of excitement, and he could see that Cheng Lao was reluctant to give up on this calligraphy and painting.

"Just now I also saw Mr. Zhuo Feng selflessly treat my wife's pain, and let my wife miraculously stand up and walk, and from beginning to end do not care about my old man's cent, I also guessed that you also have a purpose for calligraphy and painting, but I am more willing to give calligraphy and painting to you, wealth is something outside my body for me and my wife.

"This trip also made me more aware that as overseas Chinese, we all have to return to our roots in the end, so I am here to tell you in advance that tomorrow I will announce that I will leave my overseas career to my children, and I and my wife will return to China to make the last meager contribution to the construction of our hometown. ”

Cheng Wanli looked up at the bright moon in the sky.

"Thank you Cheng Lao for your trust in us, and thank you for your trust in my grandfather. You can rest assured that we will take good care of this calligraphy and painting and will never let it go overseas. And let the national treasure shine again. ”

Cheng Wanli turned around and said to Zhuo Feng again.

"Mr. Zhuo Feng, I don't want to explain your special ability here, but you must be cautious, in case the lawless person learns about your ability, I think it will bring you endless consequences. But please believe that I, Cheng Wanli, will never say a word about your special abilities. I thank you for healing my wife, but it's too late. ”

is really a person who has seen the world outside, and he can see Zhuo Feng's unique ability at once.

Seeing his wife have a big appetite, a strong wrist, and be able to walk on the ground, this is definitely something that cannot be changed with drugs or anything like that, unless there is a special ability that is not known to the world today.

Zhuo Feng gave Cheng Wanli a thumbs up to show that he did have special abilities in this area, and also expressed his respect for Cheng Lao and admired Cheng Lao's generosity.

Early the next morning, the ancestor worship activity in which the whole clan participated officially began.

The quiet little fishing village comes alive.

Chen Xiaoyan changed into a Hui'an women's costume according to customs.

"Hui'an female refers to a group of special folk women on the coast of Huidong Peninsula in Hui'an County, Quanzhou, Fujian Province, who are famous at home and abroad for their peculiar costumes and hard-working spirit.

Hundreds of years ago, they migrated here from the Central Plains, and because of their seaside life, they wore colorful turbans and orange-yellow hats to protect themselves from the wind, and the scarves also had small woven flowers and small colorful ornaments, and wore tight and short clothes on the upper body, exposing the navel, and wearing particularly loose and fat pants on the lower body, and the belt was tied under the navel. ”

That's how the world describes them today.

Chen Xiaoyan jumped in front of Zhuo Feng.

"Am I really following the locals? ”

Zhuo Feng's eyes widened, looking at the fairy who fell from the sky in front of him, which is to follow the local customs, this is simply a typical representative of a native Hui'an woman.

So beautiful.

"As soon as you go out like this, others will think that your own girl is back. It's so beautiful. It's so beautiful. ”

Zhuo Feng praised from the bottom of his heart.

"What's pretty?"

Chen Xiaoyan asked mischievously.

"Is the clothes pretty?

"The clothes look good, and so do you. Person... People are the best looking... ”

Alas.

I know that I look good, but I still have to ask others.

Is.

You have to blush your neck, and you'll be happy.

"Giggles. Chen Xiaoyan smiled brightly.

After eating breakfast, Cheng Wanli arranged for people to invite Zhuo Feng and them.

After the auspicious time arrives in the morning, the ancestor worship ceremony officially begins.

These overseas Chinese return to their hometowns every year to worship their ancestors, and they always go into battle in person, reciting the sacrificial texts early, and they are cautious.

Like most of the ancestor worship customs in Quanzhou, the Cheng ancestor worship procedure is cumbersome and grand, pigs must be slaughtered and sheep must be slaughtered, placed on both sides of the patio, and the Temple of Heaven is set up in the middle, and the sacrificial personnel are composed of the chief priest, the leading sacrifice, the praise, the deacon, and the reading of the blessing.

There are a large number of overseas Chinese in Quanzhou, and this kind of ancestor worship activity is not only a simple memory of the ancestors, but also a blood connection and family relationship, which continues to this day. ”

The escort explained to Zhuo Feng the process of worshipping their ancestors, and at the same time explained the customs and culture of this fishing village, which made Zhuo Feng feel as if they were in the middle of a magnificent movie.

Soon it was time to worship the ancestors**.

After Cheng Wanli finished reading the sacrifice, he cleared his throat and said in a straight voice: "Thank you for accompanying me to complete the ancestor sacrifice."

"This time I returned to the province to worship my ancestors, which made me feel quite fruitful, and I was also amazed all the way.

"I Cheng Cheng someone has traveled to the South Seas since he was a child, and finally went to the United States for development. This time, I returned to China with my wife, first, I haven't come back for many years to see, and I miss my parents and fellow villagers in my hometown, and second, my wife has been in the hospital bed for a long time and wants to return to improve her living environment.

"On the way back to China, by chance, Wang Xiu'e's wife's pathology was reduced, but I also had one thought, and now I have another thought, which is now going to be announced to everyone.

"That is, I, Cheng Wanli, will become a member of this small fishing village again from today. I've returned to my hometown. From now on, this fishing village will be my home, and the motherland will be my home. ”

In an instant, thunderous applause rang out in the entire ancestral hall.

。。。。。。

I've been in this fishing village for three or four days.

Chen Xiaoyan went back to the house room first to pack her luggage.

The half of the calligraphy and painting sent by Cheng Lao had not yet come to taste it carefully, and they were afraid that there would be other incidents on the way, so the three of them packed their bags and said goodbye to Cheng Wanli.

Cheng Wanli didn't keep them, after all, young people have young ideas and lives, and after a long time, there will still be some estrangement, but he just said to Chen Xiaoyan that he wanted to invite her grandfather Chen Yucai to come to play, and wanted to have a good exchange with Chen Lao.

Chen Xiaoyan agreed to Cheng Lao's request on behalf of her grandfather, and the three of them set off home.

Back at the villa, the first thing Chen Xiaoyan did was to hand over the calligraphy and painting to her grandfather.

Chen Yucai spread out the two calligraphy and paintings on a large wooden table, and slowly pulled the two calligraphy and paintings along the cracked gap.

The two half-character paintings were perfectly stitched.

After more than half a century of separation, these two calligraphy and paintings finally reunite today, presenting their artistic achievements and brilliance to the world.

Chen Xiaoyan and Zhuo Feng stood at the table and looked at the freshly spliced calligraphy and painting.

This silk calligraphy painting is about 54 centimeters long and 30 centimeters wide.

The drawing direction is horizontal, from right to left.

The half of the calligraphy and painting on the right is Chen Xiaoyan and Zhuo Feng who they bought back from Boss Li, Fan Huang's is more serious, the whole article focuses on the old lady, thatched houses, dry grass, unfinished meals, and broken wooden tables for decoration.

The half of the calligraphy and painting on the left was given to Zhuo Feng and others by Cheng Wanli, overseas Chinese.

The calligraphy and painting on the left are the same as the ones I saw before, and they also outline the detailed expressions of the characters with a few simple strokes.

In the place where the calligraphy and painting are closer, a scholar is dressed plainly, with a scarf on his head, and the basket on his back is full of books. The body is forward, the right foot is slightly forward, but the head is turned back, and the eyes are reluctant. And in the far away place of calligraphy and painting, two companions led donkeys, camels and bamboo rows, and were turning back and shouting at the scholar to hurry forward and walk with them.

The two half-character paintings are put together, which is a complete picture of a mother bidding farewell to her son to Beijing to take the exam.

In order to go to Beijing with his companions to catch the exam, the son didn't even finish his mother's meal, and was about to set off.

All the belongings of the family have been replaced with books in the backpack, just to study hard for ten years, and one day enter Beijing to take the test for fame and achievement.

Isn't that the case in today's society?

For the sake of their children's future, which of the parents who have worked hard to raise their children is either busy to the point of gray hair early or to make their children live better and not be bitter?

Chen Xiaoyan couldn't help but tremble slightly after reading the calligraphy and painting, isn't that a portrayal of the life of Cheng Wanli's overseas Chinese seniors? In her early years, she wandered overseas, worked hard, and finally achieved her life, but her loving mother was no longer there.

The tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, and the child wants to raise but does not wait, perhaps this ancestor worship can express his inner remembrance of his ancestors.

It seems that Cheng Lao gave the calligraphy and painting to himself and Zhuo Feng, and his heart is completely relieved.
