Chapter 101: Sneaky Prayer
On the sixth day of the first lunar month, not only the ancestral family, but also the shops in Lei Gong Town opened one after another, listening to the sound of firecrackers, the streets were filled with the smell of gunpowder, and the proprietors and shopkeepers, who did not know each other, saw each other and said Wishing you prosperity, and the end was more lively than the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve.
Got up early Shanbao took the medicine that her father personally boiled for her, and last night she was still sore, and when she left the ancestral compound and came to the street, she felt very good, I don't know if it was the big sun basking comfortably, or leaving the deep courtyard to breathe freely, looking at the door panels of the merchants one by one, there was a feeling that a new round of stories was about to be staged.
Zhu Lunhuagai sat in Shanbao and Li Qingzhao, followed by Jinse, Ake, and Ajiu.
Three flat-headed carts were loaded with everything needed to open the shop, incense and candles to worship the head of the mountain god, and a stack of firecrackers.
Zu Gongluo and the other brothers rode horses with Zu Baifu, Zu Gongqing was next to Zu Gongluo, the brothers chatted while walking, Zu Gongqing said: "Did the second sister-in-law go home?" The Wen family also has a few shops. ”
Of course, he is referring to Wen Wanyi, there are not many shops in the Wen family, and they are all businesses related to the wooden gang, such as woodware, which is also open today, Wen Wanyi has already been out of the cabinet, and she is not considered a Wen family, and Wen Zhong did not call her back, it was her own plan, that day the abbot of the Dragon Mother Temple, Hui Jingshi, told her that Wen Chong left all the family property to her son Wenwu, Wen Wanyi was furious, she thought about it for many days, and went back to open the Wen family's shop, which made people feel that she was still the female young man of the wooden gang.
Painstakingly and painstakingly.
Whenever Wen Wanyi is mentioned, Zu Gongluo generally chooses to talk about him, and this time too, Yu immediately bowed his hand to the shopkeeper of a lacquerware shop and said: "It's a good opening!" ”
The shopkeeper came back with his hand, and he also said that the opening was good.
Zu Gongqing tried to persuade him: "Second brother, the second sister-in-law can be regarded as both talented and beautiful, and she is also dead set on you, don't be slow to treat others, I heard, I heard that you don't have a round house yet." Although this thing was done by your father, you asked the fourth brother to marry the second sister-in-law on your behalf without being at home, but you married an outstanding woman, and you didn't enjoy it. ”
Seeing that the ancestral mountain warehouse has arrived. Zu Gongluo pointed to the big golden characters on the plaque of the warehouse and said: "The gold paint is peeling off, you can find a craftsman to repair it another day." ”
Zu Gongqing raised his head to look, responded with a good voice, and ignored him to change the topic, so he didn't say anything about it at the moment.
For Wen Wanyi. Zu Gongluo was also helpless, and persuaded her to leave the ancestral family, but she said that the woman who left the pavilion left her husband's house, which was no different from divorce from her wife, and swore that she was born as an ancestral family and died as an ancestral ghost.
Grandpa Lu was smiling and saluting a certain shopkeeper, when someone suddenly called him: "Second young master! ”
It was the shopkeeper's old iron who came out of the mountain warehouse. Seeing Zhu Lunhua's covered car, knowing that there were female dependents sitting in it, Fang remembered that Shanbao is now a big boss, so he went to the carriage to say goodbye to Shanbao.
On the first day of junior high school, he had already gone to pay homage to the New Year, and Shanbao simply responded with a simple hum.
The coachman took the stool from the car and put it under the Zhu Lunhua canopy, Jin Se, A Ke, and A Jiu helped Shanbao to step on the stool and got out of the car.
The guys outside had already picked up the firecrackers with bamboo poles. Just wait for the order of the big boss to ignite.
Shanbao is ready to take everyone to bow to the ancestor inside.
All walks of life have their own ancestors, such as farmers worship the land lord, bookstores worship Confucius, and tailors worship Xuanyuan. The silk industry worships the weaver girl, the carpenter worships the public loss class, the brewing industry worships Du Kang, and so on, and most of the people in Lei Gongzhen worship the old leader of the mountain god, whether digging ginseng, picking medicine, or logging. They all rely on Changqing Mountain to eat, and of course they have to worship the mountain god.
The incense case fire candle offerings were placed, a guy called for water, Jin Se waited for Shanbao Huan's hand, and she took out three incense sticks, lit them, and respectfully bowed to the old man and worshiped the statue of the god three times, and there were words in his mouth, Li Qingzhao, who was closest to her, couldn't really hear it, let alone the ancestral fathers and others in the back.
Zu Baifu said: "Sister-in-law can speak out. ”
Shanbao pulled back and said, "I said it for mortals, since he is a god, he can know when his heart moves." ”
Zu Baifu listened to Dou's words, and tried his best to let Shanbao, only wait for the prestige of Zu Gongluo to decline in the future in the Shenbang and the ancestral family, that is when he overthrew Shanbao and replaced it, but whether it is a mountain or an opening, the words of prayer should be loud and loud, not a matter of the mountain god old head hearing and not hearing, but the release of the mountain and the opening are solemn and solemn things, seeing that the good treasure is quite sneaky, a fortune-telling and divination look, there is no Haoran at all, so he couldn't help but say: "This is solemn." ”
The incense mist is pervasive, the fans on the windows have been removed, the sunlight is sifted in through the window lattice, foggy, entangled with the incense mist, there is a little more mystery in front of the shrine, Shanbao took off the black fox fur, and the body is also wearing a dark green shirt, in addition to the face showing the atmosphere of youth, the line is still very solemn.
Zu Gong said slightly: "I know my heart, so let's go out and set off firecrackers." ”
He has always had a light complexion and a light tone, but every word is full of majesty, even if Zu Baifu is his father, he has always been afraid of him, so he endured the good treasure.
Zu Gongluo was the first to go out of the door of the store, and the guys with firecrackers nodded when they saw him, knowing that they had given the order to light the firecrackers, so they crackled in a moment, and the front of the door exploded.
Li Qingzhao's daughters covered their ears, but it was a good treasure, staring at the smoke after the firecrackers, and her mind was sinking and sinking, if it was difficult to ride a tiger when she was a big boss, but now she has a little enjoyment, not for fame and fortune, but she doesn't like to spend time embroidering and embroidering every day in the boudoir, she likes rivers and lakes, this, perhaps influenced by those manuscript stories, Li Qingzhao said: "Cousin, if you are a man, you must be good at power." ”
For some reason, Shanbao suddenly remembered this sentence at this time, she laughed self-deprecatingly, herself, she is really not good at playing with power, only because the bearded man is in Changqing Mountain, she likes to stay in the ancestral house, because only by staying in the ancestral family, she can wait in place, and the bearded man can easily find him, just like the night of Chinese New Year's Eve.
After the firecrackers are set off, it is customary to go to the restaurant to celebrate.
Grandfather called the housekeeper Lao Hao to set a table a little early, in the Ted Building, the time was still early, a cadre returned to the mountain warehouse to rest for a while, and it was close to noon after some gossip, so he got up and went to the Ted Building, on the way Li Qingzhao quietly asked Shanbao: "Just now in the mountain warehouse, what are you praying for in front of the old head of the mountain god?" ”
Shanbao's gaze drifted to her: "Why sue you." ”
Li Qingzhao immediately said: "Because I am your sister." ”
For this reason, Shanbao can only say: "I asked the old boss to bless me on the night of the Shangyuan Festival, and I can see my brother again." ”
It stands to reason that she should pray to the old man of the mountain god to bless the mountain store, but Li Qingzhao was immediately dumbfounded. (To be continued.) )
