Chapter 12 Welcoming the New Year Ancestral Hall to Worship Ancestors

Liu Xiuying learned that the cowherd brother had left Liu's landlord's house, and knew that after all, she was the one who had affected the other party, so she only sighed that she couldn't thank the life-saving benefactor in person. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info sighed for a while and saw that Liu Dashan still looked angry, and comforted softly: "Dad, don't be angry, those people are not worth it." ”

"I know that they hurt you, but my father can't avenge you, isn't my father useless?" Liu Dashan hung his head and blamed himself for not being able to protect his daughter. It's not that he didn't go to the patriarch for this matter, the patriarch only threw him four words, "pure accident", just looking at the attitude of the clansmen, Liu Dashan knew that this complaint was also blind to the yamen.

Standing outside the patriarch's door, Liu Dashan was a little nostalgic for the years when the white knife entered the red knife and came out, and he rushed to the house of the landlord Liu with a knife early in his temper at that time, but thinking about the gentle wife and the well-behaved daughter, he sighed or sighed, and returned home with his body bent.

Liu Xiuying doesn't like to see such a disheartened and lazy father, if she can open the knot in her father's heart with some small means, she doesn't mind giving it a try. "Daddy, don't worry, although we can't prove that this incident has anything to do with them, we can't easily let them go, don't teach them some lessons, and they won't give up in the future. ”

Liu Xiuying's old-fashioned tone did not match her young face at all, but fortunately, Liu Dashan had long believed that her daughter was the reincarnation of the star god and was talented, so she was not surprised, but discussed with her seriously, "I am angry when I see the shameless face of that family, even if I can't testify against them, I don't want to endure this breath in vain, just find an opportunity to beat them up, no matter how you say it, I have to give you out." ”

Liu Xiuying shook her head, with a sly smile on her face, "They are shrinking at home and not going out, I'm afraid it's not so easy to beat them, besides, it's too cheap to beat them, at least give them an unforgettable lesson." ”

"What good idea have you come up with?" Liu Dashan saw the ill-intentioned smile and knew that the girl must be playing some kind of ghost idea, thinking about the girl's method of rectifying herself, his frustrated mood suddenly became very excited.

"I need my father's help with this...... I will take care of my mother on that day, but don't scare my mother. Liu Xiuying put her arms around Liu Dashanren's neck and muttered.

The more Liu Dashan listened, the more frightened he became, his brows scattered and hesitated, his eyes widened and widened, and he said in a tangled manner for a long time: "Dad, why do you listen to such a penetrating person, don't make too much trouble, the patriarch is not easy to explain." ”

"Dad, don't worry, if you do what I say, you will definitely not be discovered, it depends on whether you have the courage to do so. Liu Xiuying urged: "You have to hurry up about this matter, don't show your mouth in front of your mother." ”

Liu Dashan was provoked by his daughter, his eyes immediately widened, and he said without words: "Dad will not have the courage, your father and I have also killed people and stained blood back then." ”

Liu Xiuying, who still retains the professional values of the police, immediately frowned, "Hey, didn't my father go into business before, why did he kill someone?"

Liu Dashanren dodged his daughter's questioning eyes, and hesitated, "That's what Dad said." ”

"Don't lie to me, or I'll ignore you in the future. Liu Xiuying turned her little face, feeling uneasy, she didn't believe that her father had killed anyone, but reason was laughing at her for deceiving herself. Dad is so good to himself and willing to give kindness, how can he be a cruel murderer. But if her father really killed someone, whether she killed her relatives in righteousness or covered it up, this will make her deeply understand the contradictory and panicked feelings of the families of those criminals in her previous life.

Liu Dashan cares about his daughter the most, and when he saw that his daughter was angry, he hurriedly said good things to tease.

Liu Xiuying, who was partial, was determined to ask her father's past clearly.

Liu Dashan didn't have a problem, poured beans into the bamboo tube and told the story of falling into the grass in the past, and asked nervously after speaking: "You don't think Dad did that kind of thing before, Dad has changed now, Dad just wants to live a good life with you......"

Liu Xiuying looked at Liu Dashanren with complexity, if she had been in her previous life, she would definitely bring robbers like Liu Dashanren to justice, but this is not a peaceful world with perfect laws, this country has been trampled on by foreigners, and the social environment of etiquette and happiness has made the people have no protection. Liu Dashan was forced by the troubled times, and he killed rich people or corrupt officials who were not benevolent, and did not attack the poor people. Faced with such a situation, she was really a little overwhelmed. It is said that Liu Dashan did something wrong, but in the chaotic situation of social order, Liu Dashan killed those people, but many people suffered less.

Liu Dashan saw that his daughter didn't speak for a long time, and he was anxious, "Girl, my father doesn't want to, but if my father doesn't kill them at that time, they won't let my father live." As he spoke, he opened his sleeves and pointed to the scars on his arms, "This is the year when my father was running business outside and was beaten by several officials, and a piece of the back of his head was also cut by those people, and his chest was trampled by a Tartar horse, and two ribs were broken, and my father lay down for half a month to pick up this life, and it took three months to stand up......"

Liu Xiuying gently stroked the depression on the back of her father's head, and saw that her father's ribs were obviously misplaced, and her voice trembled, "Dad, it's not your fault, you're not guilty, it's those people who deserve to die!"

"I haven't told you about these things, and I didn't plan to tell you, but you asked, Dad can't hide it from you, don't blame Dad, Dad really didn't have a way to live at that time...... Don't be afraid of Dad, Dad will not hurt you and your mother even if he dies by himself. Liu Dashan's voice was very low, some of the unbearable looking back of the past days, and some of the panic after confessing to his daughter

Liu Xiuying's tears flowed down Liu Dashanren's neck, "Thank you, Dad, thank you for telling me all this, I don't look down on you, I feel sorry for you for suffering so much, my daughter will no longer be naughty in the future, and I must be filial to you." Liu Xiuying's thinking gradually changed. If people don't have a way to live, they will naturally resist, in this chaotic era, she shouldn't use the legal norms of her previous life to ask a desperate man to sit and wait to die, if it is replaced by any normal person who believes it, she is not willing to swallow her anger and let people die alive.

"Good girl, my father doesn't want anything now, I just look forward to you growing up and not being bullied. ”

"Daddy......"

After the words were said thoroughly, the father and daughter were no longer half separated, hugged their heads and cried for a while, and continued to happily discuss the means to rectify the landlord Liu's family.

At midnight on the first day of the first lunar month, each family will go to the ancestral hall to burn incense and set off firecrackers to welcome the arrival of the new year. Every year, the ancestors of the Liu family are called to the grandchildren of each house with their own surname to gather in the ancestral ancestral hall for sacrifice.

On this day, even if the landlord Liu's family was reluctant to go out, they would be gathered in the ancestral hall, and they would have to listen to the patriarch announce the income and expenditure of the ancestral field, because this money would not only be used to hold ancestor worship meetings, but the excess would also be distributed to each room, how could this greedy couple miss it.

When the son was approaching, Liu Dashan's family came to the ancestral hall together. Mr. Liu wore a dark cotton robe with a long hem that almost covered the vamp. He took Liu Xiuying's little hand and greeted everyone with a smile, which was completely different from the attitude of angrily rushing to the crown to ask the patriarch for an explanation a while ago.

Ma, dressed in a pink gown, followed behind Liu Dashanren, with a quiet smile on his delicate face. Nothing makes her happier than her husband's deflated breath, and the cotton robe on his body is still made by her own hands. Thanks to the girl, she came up with a good idea, saying that adding a layer of silk lining to the cotton robe would make it more falling, and sure enough, it set off her husband's burly figure more and more upright.

Liu Xiuying, who was wearing a big red brocade jacket, looked around, sometimes looking here, sometimes looking there, as if she was calculating something. When she saw Landlord Liu's family appear, the smile on the corner of her mouth couldn't help but expand.

"The auspicious time is coming!

The night that should have been silent was like day, the inky night was reflected red by the firelight, and the boiling noise frightened the surrounding insects and birds to dare not make a sound, and the swarming clansmen slowly opened the ancestral hall under the order of the patriarch with torches, and carried the whole pigs, whole sheep, chickens, fish and cakes as sacrifices into it.

The men enter the ancestral hall in turn to worship, and the women kowtow outside to pray, and after doing this, they have to wash the vegetables and fruits, and when the sacrifice is over, the clan will carry out the offerings and dinner, and listen to the patriarch announce the arrangements for next year's affairs before they disperse.

After praying, Liu Xiuying stood in the courtyard and waited for her father to come out. She knew that the patriarch didn't want to see her father, and only let her father enter the ancestral hall and kowtow every year and drive him out, and the really important thing was to leave a few cronies to discuss.

Liu Dashan walked out of the ancestral hall calmly, but he couldn't suppress a wave of anger in his heart. Shicai was in the ancestral hall, and Landlord Liu ran to the patriarch to complain, saying that he cursed his family to cut off children and grandchildren. Liu Dashan wanted to argue a few words, but the patriarch didn't listen to the reason, so he scolded him with a face. Seeing the triumphant face of Landlord Liu, Liu Dashan, who was originally a little hesitant about his daughter's revenge plan, no longer wavered.

exchanged glances with each other, Liu Dashan left first, Liu Xiuying looked at the busy mother and landlord's mother-in-law, and turned around to find Liu San'er.

"Cousin!" Liu San'er was setting off firecrackers with a few children, and Liu Xiuying's eyes lit up when he saw him. Today's Liu Xiuying combs two updos with bows tied on them, which looks very cute.

In the past, Liu San'er didn't know what it meant to marry a daughter-in-law, but once he bumped into his father's mother and "fight" made him understand what a daughter-in-law was, and his father often told him that as long as he married Liu Xiuying, he could get his cousin's family wealth, which made him think that this daughter-in-law must be married. Thinking about his uncle's big mansion and valuable things, he drooled, but unfortunately every time he went to his uncle's house, Liu Xiuying didn't give him a good face, and when he saw Liu Xiuying alone, he hurriedly left his partner to curry favor with Liu Xiuying.

Liu Xiuying pretended not to hear Liu San'er's shout, and hurriedly ran into the woods next to the ancestral hall with a lantern in hand.

The thatched house is at the other end, what is she going to do there? Liu San'er was very curious and quietly followed the woods.
