Jia Youwei held his daughter's novel in his right hand and walked into the gate of Jia's cemetery. He led a large group of people behind him, along the asphalt road, looking at the boulevard of towering trees on both sides, and slowly walked forward.

It is not an exaggeration to say that this place is quiet and quiet. If you don't know, you think this is a leisure park.

In fact, Jia Youwei also knows that there is no traffic problem at all when driving directly to the graves of the ancestors. However, in order to show respect for the predecessors as a descendant of the Jia family, they will get off at the gate of the cemetery, enter on foot, and walk to the ancestors step by step.

On this day of the year, not only are there all kinds of cars of all sizes parked outside the cemetery, but there are also hundreds of people.

Among them, in addition to the descendants of the Jia family, insiders, outsiders, retinues, monks, Taoist priests, etc., who are now, in the past, and will have to rely on the Jia family to eat.

"It's promising, it's here. On a hillside in the depths of the cemetery, an old man with white hair and a thin man saw Jia Youwei walking up the white marble stairs.

Jia Youwei didn't stop, but just slowed down the pace of progress. As always, he smiled and nodded to greet the elders in the family.

He stopped in front of a large tomb in the shape of a large hemisphere, also made of white marble. This is the genealogy of the Jia clan, which records the tombs of the ancestors of the first to the ninth generation.

In fact, it is a symbol, there is nothing inside, but their names and biographies are inscribed on the tall tombstone in front of it according to the genealogical records.

Jia Youwei let go of his daughter's little hand, turned sideways and looked at a big monk and a great monk standing on the right side, and said, "How long is it?"

"There is still a quarter of an hour before the auspicious time of the sacrifice. The two replied respectfully and in unison.

After Jia Youwei understood, he looked down at his daughter and said, "You go to the back to prepare!"

Jia Qianqian is not the first time to come here to worship his ancestors, so he is familiar with the whole process of his own sacrifice. She nodded, then turned and walked to the back to stand.

Following the tradition of the Jia family, the head of the family stands at the head, and then ranks behind him according to his seniority. People of the same generation, according to their age, are lined up from left to right, and each row is a maximum of six people.

Of course, all the preparations were made in advance through the old man Sun, the tomb keeper of the Jia family, so that every Jia family member had a kneel futon available in front of them.

In addition to the fixed monthly maintenance expenses, this additional cost was also transferred by bank transfer through the special person in charge of the internal affairs of the Jia family a month in advance, so that the cemetery could invite monks and Taoist priests to pray for blessings and purchase all the sacrificial things.

Jia Youwei looked at the three animals, grains and other necessary things for sacrifice placed on the offering table in front of the tombstone, and couldn't help but think that the ancestors could eat the whole pig, the whole cow, and the whole sheep, not the pig's head, the cow's head, and the sheep's head.

Not only the three animals, but also the rest of the things will not be thrown away after the sacrifice, nor will they be distributed to the people guarding the cemetery, but will be sent to the nearest orphanage according to the Jia family's tradition.

In addition to this, a separate amount of money will be donated. This has become a common practice, so that it is not regarded as hypocrisy by the Jia family, and it has been retained to this day.

"The auspicious time has come, please take the filial sons and grandsons of the Jia family in place. The Great Monk and the Great Dao Priest suddenly said in unison.

So, the Jia family found their own positions and stood first, and then through the hands of the little monk on the left and the little Taoist priest on the right, they were divided into three lit incense sticks and held them in both hands.

Jia Youwei, who was standing in the first one, received three huge incense sticks through the hands of the great monk and the great scholar. He held them and felt strange weight.

A moment later, the words "one bow", "two bows", and "three bows" came from the mouth of the great monk without hurrying and giving orders.

Jia Youwei took the Jia family and the rest of the people behind them to start bowing one, two, and three towards the great tomb of the ancestors.

After finishing, he first took the initiative to put the three incense sticks in his hand in the large copper incense burner, and then stepped forward one by one according to the generation, and the incense in his hand was also put into it.

Jia Youwei stood back in his original position, patiently waiting for the next ancestor worship ceremony to make nine bows to the tomb. This time, it was replaced by a great priest and began to prepare to shout from one kowtow to nine kowtows.

Just when watching the family members insert the incense in their hands into the big incense burner step by step, Jia Qianqian and other children could not reach them, so they would pick them up one by one through the young women of the family who were in charge of them, and then let them dedicate the incense to the ancestors.

Jia Youwei was not serious in his heart, if there were people from other sects among the ancestors, as descendants, they just called monks and Taoist priests, would they be so angry that they didn't want to?

"The filial sons and grandsons of the Jia family return to their positions, and they kowtow to ......" The Daoist stood on the side, and his voice began the second stage of the Dao like a Hong Zhong.

Jia Youwei took the lead and led everyone to kneel and worship together. As for the Feijia family, they still have to bow and salute. This large area of black pressure is still quite spectacular.

Jia Youwei only stood up after nine kowtows. And for that, that's not all. The third stage is to offer wine to the ancestors.

He was still the first to step forward, and took three cups of wine containing the national liquor Moutai from the hands of the Dadao priest one after another, and spilled them on the ground one after another.

The aroma of the wine spread so well that hundreds of people could smell it one by one. If you can't smell it, then you definitely have a problem with your nose.

Among them, there are many people who have seen this kind of extravagant scene for the first time, and they can't help but muttering in their hearts, if they are in a slave society, they will definitely sacrifice the ancestors of the Jia family with living people.

Whether it is an adult or a child, as long as it is the Jia family, they must do what Jia Youwei has done and do it one by one.

When it came to the fourth stage, Jia Youwei personally burned sacrificial texts and other things for the ancestors. The content of the writing is nothing more than that the Jia family is blessed by their ancestors, the family fortune is prosperous, and the praise is sung.

In addition, whoever has increased the population, such as getting married, having children, etc., should also write their names so that their ancestors can know well. On the contrary, if the number of people is reduced, you must also write your name, and you must also let them know.

Before Jia Youwei put the sacrificial texts into the brazier to burn, he, as the head of the family, recited it aloud. As for these things of writing and ink, they are not written by him, but by someone else.
