Chapter 226: The Jia Family
For a rich person like Jia Diwu, it is really too generous to let a stranger come and live casually. I wouldn't be happy if it were me, for fear that someone else would do something bad in my house, but I was obviously surprised that such a rich man didn't care about that.
In the eyes of the rich, everything is good, and second-hand is played by the poor. In this day and age, it's ridiculous to say that even people are second-hand.
The reason why I'm curious is that I just want to know something about Jia Zhiwu, and the thoughts of rich people are not something that everyone can understand. He asked me to come and live in a house that I haven't lived in for a long time, probably because he wanted to avoid something, after all, the sign I played was the Murder House Experience Master, and the Murder Mansion was just a little different kind of danger.
However, it seems to me that he is not a person who believes in these things, and I was a little surprised to come here, and now I am even more suspicious when I see such a luxurious and clean house.
Old man Chen smiled when he heard my doubts, and after I sat down, he recalled and said, "Little brother, you don't know, the Jia family has had this habit since ancient times. As you can see, this house is next door to the ancestral hall, and if the house is close to the house of the ancestors, it will not be able to conflict with the ancestors. Originally, the house where people lived and the house of their ancestors should not be close to each other, but the previous feng shui master said that the best of the two places is one yin and one yang, which plays a role in complementing each other, and people will definitely prosper in the future. That's it, if suddenly this room is unoccupied, people will come to stay overnight, the purpose is to see if the ancestors next door have become anxious because of the yang energy of no one next door, so as to harm people, and can also avoid casualties in the family. But now that the society is developed, you also know it, little brother, what ghosts, ghosts, gods and gods don't exist, this invitation to come and live is also because of the rules left by the ancestors, don't think about it. ”
I understand a lot of things in this way, I don't know much about the feng shui pattern, and it is not okay to see the residence of the person and the residence of the ancestors next door to the general custom, but this is just the rhetoric of the people. This is feasible in the Tao, and there is a kind of that there should be no dwellings on the opposite side of the ancestral hall, which is the most popular, and many villages are most concerned about the opposite of the ancestral hall, in fact, this is also false, and there is no such talk in the Tao at all. Brother Li told me before the birth of these two rumors, but in fact, the reason why there are these two statements is because of disrespect for ancestors. After all, there are people who have all kinds of speech, and many of them are just the shackles of folk customs.
The ancestral hall is not the place where the ghosts of the ancestors gather, as the folk say, but the place where the spirits of the ancestors are stored. No matter how small a family is, it will increase after the death of the predecessors one by one, and even if there are ghosts, they will feel crowded and will not be in that place, and only a few ghosts will stay there because of their own thoughts. In general, there is nothing special about the house next to the ancestral hall.
The feng shui gentleman that the old man Chen said also knows some things, not to mention whether there is any yin and yang that play a counseling role, just because there are houses opposite the ancestral hall, and there are houses on both sides of the ancestral hall, you can know, if you don't understand some things, how can you not have the opportunity to folk rumors?
There are houses on both sides of the ancestral hall, and this one is special, and the land is better, and what is afraid of the yin and prosperity of the ancestors and some rules are just some false statements. This also explains why Jia asked me to come over, and I am a lot more relieved about this.
I nodded, pondering: "The old street in the south of the city is already famous, if the development of the shop can definitely attract a lot of people, why the whole street looks so deserted, it's a pity." To tell the truth, I still want to rent a shop here. ”
There were no ghosts in the house, and I didn't have to chase out ghosts, so this time I was very comfortable to get money for a night's stay. This stay will also make Jia Diwu happy in the future, and I can be regarded as having a way to get money. Now you might as well chat, maybe you can know what special things are in this street, such as what rules are left by our ancestors.
There are many things in the folk that are worth listening to and learning, and I am now a Taoist person, and I am more or less a Taoist priest, so I need to know more about some special things in the community. After all, the things in the market are true or false, and we people in the Tao can also know more in our hearts when it is necessary to deal with them.
Faced with my question, Old Man Chen hesitated, looked at the door, looked a little cautious, hesitated for a moment before saying: "Alas, little brother, you don't know, these are all caused by the rules left by the ancestors. ”
"Why do you say that?" Seeing his sadness and struggle, I asked and handed him a cigarette to light it.
Although today's society is developed, some traditions that are not necessary are still left, and most of them are cancerous existences. For example, the tradition of the old street now, I don't know how much profit has been lost secretly.
He took a deep puff of his cigarette, "To tell you the truth, the Jia family used to be a big wealthy family, and many families, including this old man, were slaves of the Jia family. However, the Jia family was very kind to us, the slaves who accompanied us, and let us stay here after the reform and distribution of land, and also paid for us to build houses and make a family for us. It is precisely because of this that we also have great respect for the Jia family, and we still worship in the same ancestral hall with them, and the spiritual positions of our ancestors have also been able to enter the same ancestral hall. However, the Jia family used to be a large family, and it was considered that it was not a family to open a business with a courtyard, so there was a rule that the courtyard could not be used to buy shops. However, when you grew up in Tai'an County, you also know that there was originally a business on this street, but in fact, those stalls were not ours, and the Jia family discussed with their hearts and let those small traders set up stalls on the roadside in front of the door. ”
There are no shops in the courtyard......
A person from a big family is a person from a big family, and there is a set of ideas. Similar to what I had guessed before, the existence of the pilgrimage ancestral hall really shows that the people on this street used to be in the same family, and the Jia family was the master's family, and the rest had servants in the family.
Old man Chen didn't have a filigrea in the Jia family, and after finishing speaking, he frowned and said, "The Jia family is kind to us families, and many people follow the people of the Jia family to earn money. But people are unpredictable, some people are wolf-hearted, they have to leave here after making money, and they don't follow the rules to open a store, and they don't respect Jia Shao at all. In the end, Jia Shao bought all the houses on this street at a high price, and gave the money directly to those people, so you can see the decoration of the buildings outside. ”
"Goo-dong!"
I didn't expect there to be such a thing, but this thing is not common. From ancient times to the present, ungrateful people abound, the Jia family has indeed done a good job, but those who have been brought rich and noble do not know how to be grateful, and the people who use the house built with the help of the Jia family and then sell it to the Jia family are simply unjust! bought the whole street, it can be seen that Jia Diwu is really rich.
"It is inevitable that the Jia family will be bullied, alas, this is all because of the small number of people in the court, and now there is only Jia Shao's family in the entire Jia family. With the blessing of his ancestors, he gave birth to two boys, and the Jia family will be able to inherit it in the future, which can be regarded as an eye-opener. Old man Chen breathed a sigh of relief in his heart as he spoke, and his loyalty to the Jia family could be seen from his words. It is really commendable to have such a person in this thought.
There are all kinds of people in this world, and I just sigh a little about the Jia family, and it's useless to be angry about it. Jia Diwu also knows this truth, so he will not be angry because of some white-eyed wolves. If he had too many disputes with the original people on this street, it would not be a trivial matter in Tai'an County, and it would have spread all over the country a long time ago, and it would not have been that there was still no special thing in the old street in the south of the city.
On the whole, the people of the Jia family are good, but they don't open shops but let people come to set up stalls, no wonder there were a lot of people in the old streets in the south of the city.
I also lit a cigarette myself, "Old Chen, you make me admire, you can know how to be grateful to the Jia family, which I don't know how many people can't do now." By the way, it's your old man who has been taking care of this house with Mr. Tija. ”
"Hey, that's all I have to do. The Jia family treats me well, and I always remember it in my heart. My family was killed during a catastrophe, and I had a heart of retreat since then, so I took care of it in the ancestral hall, and by the way, I came to clean and clean the house, and when Jia Shao wanted to come back and live, he could see the clean house. After he finished speaking, he extinguished the burned cigarette in his hand, looked at his watch, and said in a gentle tone, "My meal is estimated to have been burned, and my little brother has not eaten, do you want to go over and have a meal." ”
It turned out that he was still the person who took care of the ancestral hall next door, and judging from his meticulous and calm attitude, he was also a person who knew how to grasp the time. It is very rare to have such a sense of time at his age, which shows that he was also a person who did great things when he was young, and this style of action is a manifestation of a superior person.
I've already eaten it, so I didn't bother him.
It's past six o'clock now, and the darkness has eaten away at the whole world, and I closed the door after Old Man Chen left.
"I can't imagine that there are so many obscure things in the old street in the south of the city."
Thinking back to the conversation with Old Man Chen just now, I sighed, and the things he said made me remember deeply, especially a heart that knows how to be grateful. I can't help but wonder how many people still remember the benevolence, righteousness, loyalty and filial piety that were highly respected in ancient times, even an old man understands, but now many academic elites don't know.
Yes, it is not easy for people who value love and righteousness to be rich and noble in this idea, how many people go back to choose?
......
There are so many changes and incomprehensions in the human world that it is especially important to follow your own thoughts.
I didn't dare to move in such a luxurious house for fear of breaking things. So I lay down in bed early, just turned on a bedside lamp, and I was able to see everything around me clearly in the dim light.
It's not easy to go to bed early, so I took out a book from my bag and looked at it, this book is called "On Why I Only Think of Simon Qing". As the title of the book says, when it comes to the surname Ximen, I naturally think of Ximenqing, as for why, I can only say that Ximenqing's reputation is too loud, but there are a lot of stories described in this book, which is still very good......
Cough......
The room was very quiet inside, and I finally understood why the Jia family did not buy a shop in their own courtyard, and there were few cars passing by outside, and the silence made people feel comfortable.
However, at some point, I felt a little cold behind the back while reading the book!
