"Brother Glory, why are you sacrificing to the stove today?"

Marlene asked curiously. Ma Lin grew up in the capital, but she had never seen a sacrificial stove, and she felt very fresh.

"Because today is a small year, Zao Ye has been sitting in the kitchen since last year's Chinese New Year's Eve, tomorrow is twenty-four, Zao Ye will go to heaven tomorrow to report to the Jade Emperor, today is to see him off, and after the Chinese New Year's Eve, we will take him back." ”

Ye Rongrong explained with a smile.

"Is the Stove Priest big?" asked Marlene curiously.

"He is in charge of the food of the world, and the people regard food as the sky, and you say that he is not big. ”

Ye Rongrong said with a smile. In fact, if you calculate according to the grade of the gods in the sky, the god of the stove, like the father-in-law of the land, is a group of people with the lowest grade.

However, the lowest-grade immortals such as the god of the stove and the father-in-law of the land are worshiped more by people, because they are closer to the people.

The county official is not as good as the current management, and the same is true for this immortal, this stove god is in charge of the problem of eating for the people of the world, although his grade is very low, but the common people dare not buy his account.

Paste the portrait, then put a small table in front of it, put a pair of small candles on the small table, light a few pillars of incense, and then offer the prepared fruits and food to the small table in front of the portrait, which is considered to be enjoyed by the two husbands and wives of the stove and the stove woman.

The sacrificial fruits are bananas, apples and oranges, and the food is basically some sweets, which are basically the same in every family, all of which hope that after eating sweets, the stove master will smear sugar on his mouth, and he will be able to say a good word in front of the Jade Emperor in the sky.

Waiting for the pillar incense to burn about half, which means that the stove master and the stove woman are enjoying it almost, Ye Rongrong took out the special paper money he bought and the sacrificial paper printed with the BMW car pattern, knelt on the ground and burned it together with the old portrait. The mouth is silently muttering.

As for Liu Jingqing's three daughters, of course, they also knelt on the ground like Ye Rongrong, and as for the words that Ye Rongrong read in his mouth, of course the three daughters would not.

After the worship was over, Ye Rongrong was still outside with a string of firecrackers, which could be regarded as preparing a car for the stove master to send the stove master to the sky.

After doing all this, Ye Rongrong will return to the back kitchen. He took down the fruit and food that had been used for the sacrifice just now. Divide it for everyone to eat.

"Brother Glory, isn't this for the God of the Stove to eat?, why did we eat it?" Ma Lin took what Ye Glory handed over with some puzzlement

"Hehe, Immortal Linlin has already eaten it, and we are now eating what the Immortal has eaten, so it can be regarded as a touch of immortality, which is good for us. Ye Shuting explained with a smile.

"So, Tingting, do you believe it?"

Ma Lin looked at Ye Shuting with some incredulity and asked. Everyone is a college student, how can they still believe in such feudal superstitions~ beliefs.

"Child's words are unscrupulous, children's words are unscrupulous. Linlin, don't talk nonsense. ”

Ye Rongrong said to Ma Lin unhappily. Just after worshipping the god of the stove, he was said to engage in feudal superstition~ beliefs, and it was strange that Ye Rongrong could be happy in his heart.

"Hehe, I won't say it. ”

Marin said with a smile. Ma Lin knew that many old people in the countryside were superstitious~, but she didn't expect Ye Rongrong to be so superstitious ~ so young.

……

At six o'clock in the evening, the old village chief and the fifth grandfather all came over, because at noon, Ye Rongrong had already greeted them. In the evening, I went to my home to have a "small year" dinner.

After a few people prevaricated, the fifth grandfather Ye had always sat on the main seat. After all, the fifth grandfather Ye has always been Ye Rongrong's elder, and when Ye Rongrong's family has no other male elders with a higher rank than him, he must have been invited to sit on the throne.

In the countryside, you are very particular about seniority, but it doesn't matter how old you are, but it depends on the size of the seniority. Especially when holding a banquet, the arrangement of the seats is arranged according to the seniority.

Of course, with the development of today's society, people in many places are not as particular as before, but in Taoyuan Village, a remote rural area, everyone still pays great attention to this tradition.

In fact, this also reflects the traditional virtues of the Chinese people who know how to respect the old and love the young. It's just that with the development of society. As well as the introduction of some bad ideas from the West, many traditional virtues were slowly lost.

When everyone was seated, there were eight hot dishes, four cold dishes, and two plates of fruit, one for grapes, one for cantaloupe, and the wine was from Gujinggong, which was bought from the town.

"Hehe, glory, you kid is good enough to pick the door, if it's not for the New Year's holiday, you won't think of inviting us to dinner. ”

After a few mouthfuls of delicious food into his stomach, Ye Xianghai, the old village chief, said happily. That is, his own family is close to Ye Rongrong's family, otherwise he would not be able to eat such delicious dishes every once in a while.

"Old village chief, I'm embarrassed to see what you said, today is the New Year, I toast a few elders with a glass of wine. Ye Rongrong picked up the wine and said to several elders.

The elders who are close to Ye Rongrong's family in the entire Taoyuan Village, basically there are only the fifth grandfather and the second grandmother left, and the rest of the people have moved out of the village to live, at most, after the New Year, they will return to the village when they worship their ancestors, and at that time it is also the most crowded and lively time in Taoyuan Village.

"Now our glory is more and more sensible, thinking of him before, I can't wait... Forget it, I think it's good now. After the fifth grandfather Ye had always drunk, he said with some sighs.

"Fifth Grandpa, what do you want?" Ye Shuting asked curiously.

"Hehe, the fifth child can't wait to give glory a slap, let alone him, at that time, I couldn't wait to give him a slap, it's too unusual. Grandma Liu said with a smile.

"What bad things did Brother Glory do before to make you angry?" asked Marin with some curiosity.

"Where are the children talking so much, hurry up and eat your meal. ”

Ye Rongrong glared at Ma Lin unhappily and said. Exposing people is not exposed, others are elders, Ye Rongrong is not good at saying anything, this Ma Lin is a little girl, eating and drinking for nothing in her own house, and she still talks so much, she is really ignorant.

"Linlin, eat this bacon, this is specially made by our family, it tastes very good, there is no place to buy such delicious bacon outside. ”

Liu Jingqing hurriedly sandwiched a piece of bacon to Ma Lin, telling her to stop talking nonsense, so as not to make her man angry, which would not be good.

Don't look at your own man's good temper recently, that's for himself, and he doesn't necessarily have such a good temper for others.

"Well, Sister Qinqing, your food is really delicious, the best dish I have ever tasted. Marlene said.

"Hehe, little girl, it's not that her dishes are delicious, but this Ye Glory's cooking skills are too good, let me tell you that such dishes, you can't eat them in the capital. Ye Xianghai, the old village chief, said with a smile. (To be continued.) )
