Chapter 314: New House Move-in
A few more days passed, and Jackton and the others took their relatives over. On that day, the old village chief also held a small welcoming ceremony for them. It was also on that day that their house moved in, and many people watched.
What made Zhou Furong and others jealous was that Jackton's two families moved over and lived under the same roof, and they were actually safe. In their words, being a man and doing Jackton's sake is the highest level. Maybe only Muddy is really disdainful, in his country, as long as you can afford it, it's okay for you to marry ten wives, I'm afraid you don't have that "capital".
The three of them together, this house is a bit big, almost four times the size of Chu Jiaqiang's old house, and the decoration inside is impossible to say, anyway, the villagers are not embarrassed to step into it that day, for fear of soiling the place.
These gringos also follow the customs of the locals and carry out the check-in ceremony according to the customs of Chujiazhai, otherwise, they would not have waited for so many days, and they would simply move in directly on the day they were built.
In Chujiazhai, the house is also particular. Before moving in, Jackton and the others prepared the things they needed according to the instructions of the old village chief. Three new baskets were to be loaded, and there were grains, wine, rice dumplings, sweets, coins, and so on. In addition, you have to prepare a pair of chickens, firecrackers, etc.
Teacher Liu personally waved the words "new home" for them and pasted them on the horizontal batch of the house. The so-called two masters do nothing, and even those couplets and so on are all handled by Mr. Liu.
When the auspicious time arrived, the old village chief ordered the firecrackers to be fired, and the two companies of terrible firecrackers rang off for half an hour, and the villagers and tourists felt very lively.
And those scientists feel that the environmental pollution is a bit big. First of all, noise. It's uncomfortable, and then look at the sky. It was as if there was a layer of fog floating on it. They believe that the people set off firecrackers. This is necessary for the sake of festive atmosphere, but it is good to have a meaning.
However, they are also overly worried. This bit of smoke is nothing to this kind of mountain village. A single breath of the mountain can be digested.
The cannon was fired, and everyone didn't wait for the cannon to stop, and opened the door directly. Later, the old village chief asked Mu Dezhen to tie a piece of garlic to a red envelope. Then hang it by the door, which indicates that you must be careful in your calculations, so that the house can gather wealth and prosper.
Then, three families carried the basket into the house. After entering the house, everyone helped make tea and gave the guests a cup of tea. Then, throw out the candy, coins, etc. in the basket for everyone to grab.
At this time, the happiest children are still eating, playing. And money to take.
"Alright, now let's go to the kitchen." The old village chief commanded. On this day, the kitchen is also an important place, and the first time the kitchen is lit, there is a certain ceremony.
Wells immediately held a pig's head, Mudzhen held a chicken in the back, Jackton finally held a candy apple, and so on. The three of them walked in one by one and set things up.
"Please go down to the Stove King!" The fifth uncle shouted.
Today is the day of occupancy, and it will not work without this great god to guard it. In China. The kitchen has always been an accident-prone location, so this place is very important, and it would be bad without the blessing of the gods. Of course, this is all superstition, everyone just looks at the excitement, and rural people are just seeking peace of mind.
At this time, the old village chief held a piece of red paper with five big characters written on it, "Jiang Taigong is here", and pasted it on the side of the stove.
Seeing this scene, some people asked puzzledly: "Since you invited the Stove King God, why do you want to invite Jiang Taigong?" Will there be a conflict between the gods? "When he recognizes it, please ask the God of the Stove King to come down, this is understandable, and suddenly kill a Jiang Taigong, will he do this too much, and even collide with the gods?
Chu Jiaqiang explained with a smile: "You have forgotten what Taigong Jiang did? ”
The people around pondered for a while, and someone said, "Jiang Taigong seems to be a god in mythology, right?" The whip of God is in his hand. In this case, it would be even more inappropriate, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of the Stove King God? ”
Chu Jiaqiang shook his head: "You only know one thing but you don't know the other, there is nothing wrong with Jiang Taigong fighting God." But it is precisely in this way that he plays the role of a supervisor. It is to supervise the gods, so as not to derelict the duties of individual gods, and not to let some fierce gods and ghosts act arbitrarily. ”
This may involve some folk legends, Jiang Ziya is the little apprentice of Li Laojun in Taishan, and was ordered by his master to assist King Wen of Zhou and King Wu in their crusade against King Shang. During this period, the three masters of the Origin of the Teachings, the Sect Master of the Interception Sect, and the Western Sect Leader of the Daoist established a list of gods. After the success of the war, Jiang Ziya was ordered to seal the gods, and after dividing the gods, Jiang Ziya found that the positions were full, and he had no place to seal. So he sat down on the lintel and became a "god of oversight." The duty is to prevent individual immortals from dereliction of duty, and not to let some fierce gods and ghosts act arbitrarily.
Everyone suddenly realized, it turned out that they were afraid of the dereliction of duty of the Stove King, and they had to go! There's a lot to learn here.
Jackton and the others felt extremely fresh, and they did whatever the old village chief arranged, and they didn't feel bored. I suddenly felt that my new house in my country was too casual and boring.
"Good! Incense and worship God, and all evils retreat! On fire! The fifth uncle shouted again.
"It's a bit superstitious, but it's fun." Many tourists whispered.
After the fifth uncle finished shouting, Mu Dezhen and the others immediately put on incense, and Jackton immediately lit the gas stove. They can't do what Chujiazhai does, using firewood to burn fires. It's one thing not to mention whether they can make a fire, let alone cook. However, they also had a good idea and hired a woman with good cooking skills from the next village at a high salary.
Afterwards, the three guys put on a feast of water, and everyone present could have a meal and a few drinks. This scene is even more terrifying than the day of the Chu family's strong wedding, no way, who makes the family rich?
On this day, even the mayor, secretary and others also put down their work to have a meal, and also brought congratulatory messages from the leaders of the city. If they don't come, they can't do it! The three of them donated six million to improve the transportation in the town, which can be large or small, at least their own town has not received such a large donation. In public and private, in sentiment and reason, you have to come to visit.
The three guys are also interesting enough, they give red envelopes when they meet people, no wonder the popularity of several gringos is so good.
Chu Jiacheng even tricked the old village chief and others into getting a sign of three good villagers and sending it over, seeing Chu Jiaqiang stunned, as soon as he saw this, he knew who came up with this idea. Only Chu Jiacheng, who strictly abides by the "three represents," can do it.
"Your Chujiazhai is really full of talents!" Zhou Furong sighed. I don't know if the tone is sincere, or sarcastic, anyway, Chu Jiaqiang didn't hear it, anyway, he didn't participate.
