Chapter 247: Qingming Ancestor Worship

.., Splendid Pastoral: Small landlord of a farmhouse

The last hints of spring faded, the willow trees began to sprout thin buds, and the sky occasionally began to drizzle.

In a blink of an eye, it was the day of sweeping the tomb and worshipping the ancestors.

The Song family prepared incense candles, paper money, vegetarian wine, tributes, meals, burdens and other ancestral worship items early.

Under the leadership of Old Man Song, he came to the ancestral hall.

Many homes have arrived in the ancestral hall one after another, and Song Li is maintaining order.

Because of the Song family, the ancestral tablets are enshrined in the ancestral hall, so every year when the ancestors are worshipped, they are carried out in the ancestral hall.

Old Man Song took everyone from the Song family and found a spacious place in the courtyard of the ancestral hall.

Together with other Song family members, they burned the folded paper money to the ancestors and prayed for the blessings of the ancestors.

He also placed the sacrifices he had brought in front of the ancestral tablets.

The people of the Song clan lined up in turn, led by the patriarch, kneeling in front of the ancestral tablet.

The Li family dragged Song Qingyuan to his side and knelt down, there is no saying that non-men do not worship their ancestors in Songjia Village.

Therefore, the Song family, including the female dependents, all came to worship their ancestors one by one.

Song Li recited the shrine. He also reported the changes in the Song family in the past year.

At the same time, the matter of passing the test of Dalang, Saburo, and the county was also reported to the ancestors, and prayed for the blessing of the ancestors, and Dalang and Saburo could win a big victory in the next government test.

In this regard, Mr. Song was very satisfied.

After a set of cumbersome procedures, the daughters of the Song family went home first, and the old man Song and other heads of the family stayed to participate in the next Qingming feast.

That is, the heads of the Song family will set up a table of banquets to contact and connect with each other.

............

When everyone in the Song family returned home, Zhou slammed the door slammed.

With a dark face, he said, "The third daughter-in-law, go grind a few pieces of tofu, and eat tofu at home today." ”

Ye's face turned pale, and he said, "Yes!" Mother! With that, he leaned over and went out of the upper room.

Song Qingrong and Song Qingmo chased out.

The rest of the Song family was silent.

The knot in Zhou's heart, everyone knows, is nothing more than that there is no male in the third room.

There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is the greatest, every time it is time to worship the ancestors, the old man Song, and the Zhou family will be in a bad mood.

Every time after worshipping the ancestors, what the Zhou family wants to eat must be tofu, in order to rub the Ye family, and let out the breath in his heart.

"!" Song Qingyuan came to Zhou's side, "Our family is not short of money now, otherwise, find a Lang Zhong to transfer the third aunt." ”

"The third uncle and three aunts are still young, and there is still hope for a year and a half...... "Ye has already given birth to two children, it's not that he can't give birth.

When Zhou heard this, his heart moved, "Can it be done?" ”

"There's hope." Song Qingyuan said softly.

In ancient times, the concept of family was very strong, and if there was no son, it meant that there was no successor. This will become a stain on Song Chengli and the Ye family, and even be ridiculed.

Looking at Zhou's attitude towards Ye, it can be seen.

Zhou thought about it, and looked at Song Chengli, Song Chengli's face was full of hope, and his heart also longed for a son.

"I'll discuss with your father, discuss." Zhou said.

............

The sun rises in the east and hangs high in the sky. The breeze gradually warmed and blew on the face, like a gentle hand, gently caressing.

Song Qingyuan stretched his waist comfortably, and finally could take off his heavy cotton clothes and cotton pants, and put on a thin layer of jackets.

Song Qingrong and Song Qingmo are in the yard, stirring the food of pigs, chickens, and ducks, at this time of the day, the two sisters are full of vitality, watching the chickens and ducks, growing up day by day, and their hearts are also happy.

After eating, Old Man Song prepared to return to the county.

Song Chengli also wanted to go to the county to deliver bean sprouts, but Ye was nervous, and he had to tiptoe behind Song Chengli, it seemed that he wanted to follow the county.

Song Qingmo came over and thanked Song Qingyuan, "Yuan'er, thank you!" ”

Song Qingrong also came over and also thanked Song Qingyuan, they knew in their hearts that if it wasn't for Song Qingyuan, the Zhou family might not agree, and the Ye family went to the county to see Langzhong.

The consultation fee in the county is very expensive.

"It's all a family, you're welcome, I also hope that the third aunt can give birth to a little five for the Song family." Song Qingyuan said with a smile.

"You helped us too much, we don't know how to thank you......" Song Qingmo suddenly hugged Song Qingyuan, "Yuan'er, as long as you can use me Song Qingmo in the future, you will go to the soup and fight the fire." ”

Song Qingmo's eyes were full of seriousness and firmness.

"Haha!" Song Qingyuan laughed heartily and flicked Song Qingmo's forehead lightly, "Little girl, your knowledge has increased recently!" I even learned to go to the soup and fire. ”

"Work hard!" Song Qingyuan smiled and patted Song Qingmo's head.

The atmosphere that was finally created was lost by Song Qingyuan.

Lyrical words, a thousand words, Song Qingmo held it in her heart and couldn't say it anymore.

Song Qingmo pursed her lips angrily, the initiator Song Qingyuan had already left the gate of the Song family.

Song Qingrong took Song Qingmo's hand, "If you are grateful, we will keep it in our hearts, Yuan'er's good, we will also keep it in our hearts, and when Yuan'er needs us, we will take action." ”

"Hmm!" Song Qingmo nodded heavily.

Secretly swore that she would be a useful person and stand by Song Qingyuan's side when she needed her.

............

Song Qingyuan, who left the Song family, came to the blacksmith shop and handed over a drawing to the blacksmith.

"How much silver does it cost to beat it above?" Song Qingyuan Road.

The blacksmith took one look and asked, "How big?" ”

Song Qingyuan estimated it and ordered a four-foot-long and three-foot-high barbecue grill.

"A tael of silver!" Blacksmith Road.

A tael of silver? Song Qingyuan nodded secretly, it was much more expensive than the iron pot, but it was within the range of her heart.

After paying the fixed amount happily, Song Qingyuan went back to the village.

First, I went to Granny Zheng and Aunt Wu's house to see the pigs, and the pigs were raised by two people well and grew quickly.

If this momentum continues, after the autumn harvest, it can be slaughtered.

When he got home, Song Qingyuan found a few small pieces of wood and began to sharpen wooden sticks.

There is no bamboo here, but fortunately, it is close to Mao'er Mountain, and there is more wood, so you can use it at will.

"Yuan'er, what are you doing?" Li leaned over, "Sharpen chopsticks?" It's also too thin, and it's pointy. ”

Song Qingyuan handed the ground wooden skewer to the Li family, "Sharpen it according to this, a penny, cut it, and settle it with me when it is cut." ”

gave the work in hand to the Li family at a high price, and Song Qingyuan was relaxed.

The wooden skewer is really hard to sharpen, Song Qingyuan pouted secretly.

Inside the upper room.

Sun sat beside Zhou and carefully accompanied his face, "Mother, I want to go back to my mother's house......"

When Zhou heard this, his face fell, and if he wanted to say that Zhou looked down on anyone the most now, it was Sun's maiden family.

"Mother, Dalang County has tried, and I have to talk to that over there." Sun said cautiously, "I'll go back as soon as I go, and I won't stay long." ”

When the old man Song celebrated the New Year, he promised the big house that he could go back to Sun's house in the spring, which was all clear, and Zhou hadn't said anything yet, and Sun couldn't help but be anxious.

"Eldest daughter-in-law, the bean sprouts at home ......," Zhou reminded.

"Mother, I will never say it, if I make a mistake again this time, I don't need to say it to my mother, I will leave the Song family by myself." Sun knelt on the ground and swore to the sky.

The method of bean sprouts is simple, and under one roof, the Zhou family did not expect to hide it from the Sun family.

After dragging on for so long, Zhou also felt that the heat was almost over, so he said, "Go, go early and return early, the family is going to farm......"
