The next morning, after the whole family had finished eating, they began to prepare the offerings.

The ancestral hall tribute does not need them to prepare, the clan will buy it in a unified manner, but their own family still wants it, in previous years, there was no spare money at home, and the Huang family only prepared two plates of cold wild vegetables for the dead Huang Mu, and occasionally there were two more eggs.

There is money this year, Jiang Nuan waved his hand, prepared a lot of all kinds of meat, vegetables and drinks, and so did the gold ingots paper money, two baskets, and the family was determined to make up for what they owed in the past.

After tidying up, Jiang Nuan took the men in the family to the ancestral hall.

Huangjiakou's ancestor worship is generally placed in the morning, because it has to work in the afternoon.

Even if it rains dripping in the sky, few people are idle, and the spring ploughing is getting closer and closer, and the land is not well harvested, and this loss is very fatal to the old peasants.

What's more, there are taxes behind the scenes, unless there is a catastrophe and it is really impossible to survive, otherwise, there is no possibility of tax reduction.

Jiang Nuan walked all the way with his son, and found all kinds of intentional or unintentional scrutiny, and was immediately puzzled, "Son, am I not dressed appropriately?" ”

She deliberately found plain clothes, and her face was clean and clean, and no fat powder was applied.

"No, why does my mother ask that?"

"I always think that someone is secretly watching me from behind, forget it, let them see, let's go quickly."

In a corner, Liao looked at Jiang Nuan, who was graceful, and snorted softly, "Jiang, this old witch, is becoming more and more seductive now, and she is a little girl who is still learning at her age, and she is not ashamed." ”

She touched her flabby face, puzzled, "I'm two years older than her, why do I feel a generation behind?" ”

"You had a serious illness some time ago and hollowed out your body," Huang Sheng persuaded in a low voice, "When you take care of your body, you will look younger than her." ”

After speaking, Huang Sheng hurriedly lowered his head.

He was afraid that his mother-in-law would see that he was weak-hearted.

Huang Sheng also thinks that the evil family, everyone is getting older and older, but the second room is getting younger and younger, and there is no ugly one in the family, white and white.

Although he was envious, he put it down to the lives of the rich.

Big fish and big meat are waiting every day, can the complexion be bad? Not to mention being ten years younger, even twenty years younger can be understood.

"Really?" Liao touched his face happily, "Then I'll go back to raise my family, the master, you go to the ancestral hall, I'll stew some bone broth, I heard that the raiser." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Huang Sheng to react, he ran home in a hurry.

"This mother-in-law," Huang Sheng smiled helplessly, "just like when she was young." ”

Shaking his head, he left with his hands behind his back and a smile on his face.

Everyone's smiles, the moment they entered the ancestral hall, were all put away, and they became solemn and solemn, heavy, pious and grateful.

This kind of feeling, as an orphan, Jiang Nuan can't empathize, but he is infected.

She listened carefully to Huang Shi's recitation of various eulogies, bowed her head and knelt down to worship incense.

It was obviously an ordinary action, but it made her feel a kind of heartfelt sorrow.

Through a tablet, a pillar of incense, the Buddha saw the distant past, the ancestors waved their hoes, under the scorching sun, a little bit of development appeared in Huangjiakou.

When I came out of the ancestral hall, it was already half an hour later.

The rain was still falling, and the crowd walked towards the back hill with baskets and oil-paper umbrellas.

It is the place where the ancestors rest.

There was no idle along the way, and everyone gossiped as before.

"Village chief, look at your bamboo basket, it's full, I want to prepare a lot of things this year."

"Aren't you the same," Fourth Brother Huang glanced at Huang Sheng, "In previous years, there was no money left at home, even if I wanted to honor my ancestors, I had a good year, I cut ten catties of fat, and bought a big pig's head, so that my ancestors could also have a good year." ”

"That's not the truth," Huang Laisheng sighed, "Where did we come from without our ancestors, I still dream from time to time that when I was a child, my grandfather taught me to plant crops by hand, and at the beginning of using a hoe, ten fingers were full of blood blisters, and his old man helped me pick them one by one. ”

"So, no matter when," Huang Shi said after looking at the sky, "we must revere our ancestors, not because of the ghosts and gods, but because of their efforts from generation to generation." ”

"Yes!"

On the other side, there is a pharmacy in the town, and it rains again during Qingming, and there are generally no customers at this time.

Dr. Gu made himself a pot of tea, lying on a custom-made recliner, holding a medical book in his hand, leisurely and comfortable.

Next to it, the elementary school apprentice dozed off boredly.

With a bang, his chin slammed on the table, and he suddenly gasped in pain, "Master, help me take a look, has my jaw dropped?" ”

"Don't worry, it's fine."

"Disfigured? Is my handsome and dashing appearance still saved? ”

"There are so many plays, be honest, don't bother me reading medical books." Doctor Gu shook his head.

In the end, he is young and has a jumpy personality, and he can't bear it for half a day.

"Master, do you think it's so boring without Xiao Wu's girl!"

No one was screaming in my ear, and I felt uncomfortable.

He began to suspect that he was the legendary!

"It's not big or small," Doctor Gu narrowed his eyes, "That's your aunt." ”

"Master, you bully people!"

Suddenly, there was such a small aunt, and he didn't dare to go back to the capital to worship his ancestors this year, for fear that he would be laughed at and killed.

"Who has time to bully you," the corners of Doctor Gu's mouth hooked slightly, "With that kung fu, it's better to think about what to eat at noon, it's impossible for anyone to bring us food today." ”

Hearing this, the junior apprentice was silent.

Qiao Qiao touched her stomach and said resignedly, "Eat, only this can be cooked." ”

In the past few days, I haven't cooked, and my skills are getting more and more sparse, even if it was black charcoal, I could cook it anyway, but now this half-cooked dish is disgusting to eat.

If it weren't for the special day today, he would have wanted to simply go to Huang's house for dinner.

"Eat," Dr. Gu stroked his beard, his eyes couldn't stop disgusting, "you won't do anything else?" ”

"I dare to do it," the apprentice pouted, "do you dare to eat it?" ”

Hearing this, Dr. Gu was stunned.

He really didn't dare to eat it.

"Forget it, white rice is white rice, nourish your stomach."

"It's a pity, it's a special day," the junior apprentice shook his head, "I really want to eat the braised meatballs made by Aunt Jiang, which are fragrant and soft, and my mouth is fragrant." ”

Hearing this, Dr. Gu was also greedy.

He had eaten in the morning, and he had been hungry for a long time, so he waved his hand and said angrily, "If you have time to talk about this, don't hurry up and cook." ”

"Go now? Will it be too early? ”

"It's noon, it's not early, I usually eat late because there are patients, and I don't need it today."

"Okay, I'll do it."

The two of them didn't know that someone braved the wind and rain, rode a horse to Ping'an County, and then went straight to the small pharmacy.
