Chapter 316: Returning to the Village to Worship Ancestors (Asking for Subscription)

It was finally time to get out of dinner, Gu Hongyu was able to get out, he didn't want to face everyone's strange expressions looking at him, only the little brother was still unsatisfied, he revealed everything he could know and looked like I knew everything. … Top Novel, www.

However, only Gu Hongyu and Mei Ning know best, some of the things Gu Hongchen said have become old news, not to mention that he only knows a little about vegetables, and the specific benefits are far from what he revealed.

On the night of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, each family will observe the New Year in their own home, and all those who have come after dinner will leave.

Gu Hongyu packed a lot of fruits and vegetables in each house when they left, and everyone was grateful when they knew about it.

Talking to each other about the New Year's celebrations, Gu Hongyu's family sent all their relatives to the square not far downstairs, and watched them slowly walk away before returning home.

When the family returned home, the Spring Festival Gala had already begun, and these were not attractive to Gu Hongyu, he built a family to rub mahjong, commonly known as a family partner, and it also depends on who is lucky during the New Year, anyway, it is all fat and water does not flow outsiders, and Tian's parents also agreed today.

Although I don't watch the party, the TV is still parked on this show, and there is no way to jump to other stations that are the same program.

Gu Hongyu remembered a joke about this, a foreigner went to China on a business trip, stayed in the hotel and planned to watch the show at night, but after a while, he pulled the hotel waiter into the room and said that the TV was broken, which hotel waiter smiled when he saw the content of the TV, Nima TV is playing news broadcast, foreigners looking for him is saying that the TV is in the virus, how do you explain this to foreigners!

Mei Ning doesn't know how to "turn down" at all about the mahjong in the mountain city, but this is very simple, Gu Hongyu taught her not long and then went out to buy fireworks and firecrackers. I thought that Mei Ning accompanied her family to play cards, even if her skills were not good, it didn't matter if she paid some tuition.

Who knew that when Gu Hongyu went home, Mei Ning actually won dozens of yuan, borrowing the dialect of Shancheng, that is, "yellow stick is hard", and almost won a "three families return to the hole".

It wasn't until eleven o'clock in the evening that my mother began to prepare to cook the rice balls, and the mahjong ended. In the end, Mei Ning still poured some out, and in general, no one won or lost.

At half past eleven, my mother had already walked into the table with steaming rice balls.

Gu Hongyu doesn't like to eat small rice balls, that is, big rice balls generally eat four top heavens, but today his mother cooked a lot, each person is basically six or eight, literally the elderly believe in superstition ~ belief, six is naturally six or six Shun, eight is to make a fortune!

There are large rice balls. There are also a lot of small rice balls in the bowl, and my mother said while serving the rice balls: "The big rice balls symbolize reunion, and the small rice balls are the years of peace, and each of you has to finish the rice balls for me today, otherwise you will look good." ”

"Mom, don't you have any money for bread in the rice balls?" The younger brother asked with a bowl.

Mother smiled and said, "I pack it every year, and I pack two more this year, see if you have the luck to eat it?" ”

In the glutinous rice balls, the custom of breading copper coins should be all over the country. However, many families now do not have copper coins and exchange them for one, two, and five cents, but that kind of meaning is still stored in zài.

Mei Ning's luck is good. In the rice balls with a total of five copper coins, Mei Ning actually ate three in a bowl, and the rest of Gu Hongyu and Gu Hongchen had one each, looking at his mother's smiling look Gu Hongyu had an indescribable feeling in his heart.

The copper coin must have been manipulated by her mother, there is no doubt that Mei Ning must have been treated favorably when she came to the door for the first time. Gu Hongyu and Gu Hongchen are the hope of the family, and the thoughts of hoping for their sons to become dragons and daughters to become phoenixes have been turned into many casual actions that have been integrated into life, and the fathers of their children have really been paying without asking for anything in return.

After eating this warm Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, the family waited for the countdown New Year's bell on the TV, as the New Year's bell rang inside. Gu Hongyu's family walked out of the house and walked straight towards the square.

Now the square is full of people, whether they know each other or not, the masses are greeting each other upside down, saying auspicious New Year blessings, Gu Hongyu and Gu Hongchen and their father are carrying fireworks and firecrackers piled up on the square, and found a position that is relatively a little distant from others, and the younger brother is busy lighting the salute.

Today is generally a good day, the moon is bright and the stars are scarce and there is no cold wind, and the lights of the town are reflected in the calm river, such a scene is accompanied by the colors of the cannon salute in the sky from time to time, and the colorful ripples are wavered.

Gu Hongyu bought a lot of salutes, one after another for 20 minutes almost without breaking, and now there are more people who shoot salutes during the New Year, and it seems that there are more people who are making money, anyway, the sound of salutes in the square has not stopped.

People who come out at night are generally at home, and adults watch children closely, fearing that if they run around, they will kick the fireworks that are being set off, which can cause a lot of accidents.

Today, the traffic patrol police on the streets have not rested, especially they can be seen everywhere in the square, and now these civil servants are still relatively competent.

Gu Hongchen is addicted to the salute, and he is not tired after ordering the fireworks for half an hour, pestering Gu Hongyu to take the money and move a lot, this kid himself has a lot of money but he didn't take it out for some reason, watching his brother pay the money with a treacherous look.

But at this time, Gu Hongyu didn't pay attention to these, today should be lively, he has money, as long as he is happy, he will not pay much attention to it.

Until almost one o'clock, Gu Hongyu called Gu Hongchen, who had had a lot of fun, to go home, and he had to go back to the countryside tomorrow to worship his ancestors, and this matter must not be delayed.

Watching Gu Hongyu's family walk away, some people in the square were pointing at them.

"Do you know, this year, the old Gu family has developed, I heard that I made a lot of money outside, and I drove millions of luxury cars when I came back."

"I've seen that car, and it's much better than the normal cars on the street."

"I paid attention to the fireworks set off by his house today, and they definitely exceeded 10,000 yuan together, but the big baby of the old Gu family who took the money didn't blink his eyes, it looks like he is really rich!"

"It's still fake, the taste of the fruit that Dawa gave me on the day I came back was applauded, and I remember this taste now."

“……”

The night was already deep, and the sound of firecrackers became sparse, and in this environment, Gu Hongyu fell asleep.

Gu Hongyu's ancestors were in the local countryside, and if you trace back to the original, they migrated from other places.

Now the four ~ Sichuan really said that the local population is not much, it is said that it was mainly in the last years of the Ming Dynasty that Zhang Xianzhong entered the four ~ Sichuan to carry out massacres, and made the four ~ Sichuan smoky and desolate, and later there was a saying that Huguang filled the four ~ Sichuan.

But now only the uncle's family really lives in the countryside, and the tombs of grandparents are buried next to the green mountains and beautiful waters in their hometown.

It is a family tradition to go to the grave on the first day of the new year every year to worship the ancestors, as long as there is a man in the family, no matter what happens, he must come back to worship on this day.

The morning time pointed to nine o'clock, Gu Hongyu had dinner at home, and the family sat in Da Che Ruoji's hometown, which was not far from the town.

Everyone made an appointment at ten o'clock, brought incense, candles, paper money and firecrackers and spent half an hour to arrive at their hometown.

Gu Hongyu's family originally had a homestead in his hometown village, but his father had not taken care of the rural residence since he was assigned a unit.

The time waited until ten o'clock, and the big family members who reunited at Gu Hongyu's house yesterday basically gathered next to the tombs of their grandparents.

There are now more and more people going out to work in the countryside, and even the people who return to the village during the Chinese New Year have become scarce, and the atmosphere of the New Year in the village is becoming less and less.

Walking on the cement road between the villages, everyone will greet other villagers who have gone to the grave, and everyone in a village is a relative.

The tomb of grandparents is very ordinary, it is a tomb full of wild grass, but there are more than 30 people on a grave to worship the other villagers feel envious, many villagers say that the ancestors buried the tomb Feng Shui is good, otherwise there will not be so many offspring, let alone let the descendants make a fortune.

I heard that this year, each family plans to pay a sum of money to repair the grave of the grandparents, that is, to cut it with a large bluestone stone and make a grave in front of the grave to set up a platform so that future generations have a place to kneel and worship.

This matter has always been negotiated between the father and the two uncles, and the two aunts do not need their money.

Light incense, candles, money paper, and then kowtow to the deceased ancestors in turn, and then follow the next generation, and then the next generation, and the family with a large population is already the 5th and 6th generations in the same house.

When this qiē is done, it is to set off firecrackers, because there are many people, firecrackers are all around the grave, and many firecrackers have to overlap together, as the cousin lights the lead with a cigarette butt, suddenly the sound of firecrackers and the screams of children are mixed together.

I remember when I was a child, Gu Hongyu was full of expectations for the annual worship, because at that time, after the firecrackers were set off, he could find some duds from them, and then put them together in a qiē, and there were also vegetable crops used to fry other people's houses.

But picking up duds is still full of danger, I remember when I was a child, a child of the same clan was blown up, and I knew that I could see deep scars when I grew up.

After worshipping his ancestors, the first meal of the new year was settled at the uncle's house, and now he is the oldest in a large family.

The meals are basically home-produced, vegetables that have not been fertilized, poultry released in the wild, local pigs fed with pure grain, and rice field fish raised in a winter paddy field next to the house, which are rare delicacies in big cities.

Even if you are used to eating things from the space, eating these real farm dishes once in a while can still remind people of a different childhood. (To be continued......) R527
