In the Eastern Xuan Kingdom, the Qingming Festival will open the ancestral hall to worship.

After the sacrifice is over, the sacrifice is distributed.

In the afternoon, they went to the cemetery to sweep the graves.

Today, the Qingming Festival has arrived.

At this time, Qingshan County should follow what Du Mu said:

During the Qingming Festival, it rains a lot, and pedestrians on the road want to break their souls.

Grief was shrouded in a hazy drizzle.

He got up early in the morning and was busy preparing the sacrificial objects.

The ancients attached great importance to the place of ancestral halls, and women were not allowed to participate in family sacrifices.

Afraid that the ancestors would blame, the He family prepared very rich sacrificial things for them.

Gu Jinxiu, as the "male" in the family, must be unavoidable from this worship.

She held an umbrella and carried the offerings prepared by the He family to the Gu family ancestral hall.

The Gu ancestral hall is built with gray bricks, which has fallen into disrepair and has long taken on an old appearance.

It occupies a small area, so that the juniors of the prosperous Gu clan can only stay in the courtyard, and the drizzle has sprinkled a layer of fine raindrops on their neat buns.

The drizzle did not stop them from making sacrifices, and they gathered together to worship their ancestors.

More or less, each family will take out some offerings and put them on the offering table in the ancestral hall to show filial piety.

With the appearance of Gu Jinxiu, the Gu clan saw the offerings that Gu Jinxiu was carrying, and they started to talk about it.

Some people speculated that Gu Jinhao's family had made a fortune, some people had mean sour words in their words, and some people looked at it with envy, and they were also looking forward to the arrival of the time to divide the meat......

For the clansmen with different thoughts, Gu Jinxiu chose to ignore them and walked directly into the ancestral hall.

Today's chief priest is the patriarch Gu Qingyun, Gu Jinxiu is responsible for accompanying the sacrifice, and the three clan elders are responsible for offering knights, offering silks, and holding incense.

Gu Jinxiu didn't want to participate in this matter, but thinking of Gu Jinhao, who had no news, and the original owner who didn't know where she was hit by a stone, she finally agreed to the matter, and it was good to show her face in front of the clansmen!

Gu Jinxiu was just about to go to place the offerings when she heard a sentence:

"Jin Hao, the sacrifice is a big deal, why did you arrive so late, can you afford to delay the hour?"

Hearing the questioning, Gu Jinxiu turned her head to look, a young man who looked very similar to Gu Qingyun, in the blink of an eye, she remembered that this person was Gu Qingyun's eldest son, Gu Jinyuan.

Gu Jinxiu said: "Brother Lobby, I understand the rules of this sacrifice, but Brother Lobby, you are wearing this red dress, and those who don't know still think that you are going to get married today." ”

Gu Jinyuan was already angry because Gu Jinxiu made his mother be punished to kneel in the ancestral hall.

When Gu Jinxiu said this again, Gu Jinyuan said angrily:

"You're blind, it's purple."

Gu Jinxiu raised her eyebrows and said, "Didn't I learn it from Brother Lobby?" ”

Seeing that the two of them were facing each other, the three clans of the Gu family came out to do peace, and reminded:

"Okay, the two nephews are here in the ancestral hall, and the ancestors are still watching."

Gu Jinxiu glanced disapprovingly at the spiritual seat in front of him, on which was a brief portrait of an official uniform hanging in the center, and there were several portraits of ancestors and ancestors on both sides.

At this time, a spring breeze blew, and the portrait shook slightly, and then the spiritual position wooden plaque under the portrait in the center also moved, and then a wisp of green smoke came out, which made Gu Jinxiu's apricot eyes widen.

She rubbed her eyes and looked again, the wisp of green smoke was still there and still flying upward.

Gu Jinxiu was sure that this was not an illusion, she turned her head to look at the people present, and saw that the big guy did not react.

She swallowed her saliva and looked around, the ancestral hall, which has not seen sunlight all year round, has lost its popularity and is shady, which makes Gu Jinxiu suddenly feel that this ancestral hall is very terrifying, and goosebumps are up.

"Jin Hao, hurry up and set up offerings!"

Hearing the reminder of the elder of the Gu Sanclan, Gu Jinxiu came back to her senses, rubbed her arms, and put her own sacrifice on the table with trepidation, while praying in her heart:

Gu ancestor, I Gu Jinxiu didn't mean it, don't blame me, in fact, I really don't want to occupy the magpie's nest, and I don't want to stay in this troublesome era, I really want to go home now, if you know, tell me in your dreams, I will definitely add sesame oil money to the temple to pray for blessings......

With the chanting in her heart, the wisp of green smoke disappeared, and Gu Jinxiu breathed a sigh of relief, this ancestral hall is too scary, she will never come again in the future.

Not long after Gu Jinxiu set up the offerings, the time for the sacrifice arrived.

After the clansmen stood up according to their seniority, under the auspices of Gu Qingyun, the sacrifice began.

Listening to the sacrificial text that Gu Qingyun was reading, Gu Jinxiu suddenly became interested, this is an article about the deeds of an ancestor of the Gu family.

Before this old ancestor made his career, he worshipped in the ancestral hall of the Gu family and saw the top spiritual seat emitting green smoke, and then he was admitted to the champion a year later and became the only champion of the Gu family.

Hearing this, the stone in Gu Jinxiu's heart seemed to be put down, she was a person in the new era who would one day believe in ghosts and gods, it was really simple!

As the process progressed, everyone poured incense and worshipped.

At the end of the service, three times the wine is offered.

Then, burn the silk.

Finally, the sacrifice ends.

It's time to divide the meat, and this should be the time of the day to make the people happy!

Everyone gathered in the courtyard and waited in line to divide the meat.

Some people who can't afford meat wait to get some meat and go home to the priests so that their deceased relatives can taste a little meat, some people line up here to receive meat just for a decent job, and some people do it for their own appetite...... The different purposes of each person also made the ancestral hall lively, washing away the sad and solemn atmosphere.

Gu Jinxiu didn't want it, but before she went out, He repeatedly told her to bring a little meat back.

So, she stayed, and trouble ensued.

"Patriarch, you came to give us a review, you can't write two words in one stroke, why doesn't the village chief want our Gu clan to prosper?" After Standing in front of him and receiving a piece of meat, Third Uncle Gu stood aside and asked.

One sentence made the Gu clan prick up their ears and listen, and some of them wanted to take advantage of it and help out.

Gu Jinxiu clasped her arms around her chest, watching the two of them act, and waited for them to say their purpose.

Gu Qingyun said: "Eat the king's luck, and worry about the king." My nephew is the village head, and he is fair and just to everyone, otherwise how can he be worthy of the court? ”

Well said!

Gu Jinxiu really wanted to slap his hands for Gu Qingyun, and saw Third Uncle Gu again:

"I don't have anything to say if she does things for the imperial court, but she does business by herself, and if she doesn't help our Gu family, why can she help outsiders?"

I'm waiting here!

Gu Jinxiu knew that they were reminiscing about the idea of takeaway in the past, and interjected:

"I have been to the homes of some people of the Gu clan, but they are unwilling to work and want me to give a sum of silver, I want to ask everyone, if you are facing such a person, are you willing to help?"
