Chapter 406: Opening the Ancestral Hall

Because there are many households in Houshan Village and many miscellaneous surnames, there are public ancestral halls and private ancestral halls.

The public ancestral hall is a person who has made a greater contribution to Houshan Village, and is qualified to stand in the public ancestral hall for future generations to admire, so there is any surname.

A private ancestral hall is a surname, and usually only worships at home.

The public ancestral hall is opened once a year, which is intended to unite all the surnames in Houshan Village, so that all the villagers can unite as one and not be bullied by other people's villages.

Perhaps these things seem ridiculous in modern times, but they were life-saving things in ancient times.

In ancient times, the bureaucracy was not as detailed as it is now, land could not be bought and sold at will, everything could be managed, and it was convenient to report to the officials.

In ancient times, bureaucrats were basically unable to control so much.

In the countryside, there are all kinds of land snakes, big landlords forcibly buy and sell land, bully the people, and the surrounding villages grab tree resources, and grab water resources to irrigate farmland in summer drought.

In ancient times, the field was the lifeblood of the common people, and if the land was robbed by the powerful, everyone could not survive.

In the summer, the water resources were robbed, the crops in the fields could not survive, and the trees in the mountains were robbed of themselves, and in the winter, they burned charcoal, made furniture, and built houses.

These have to be earned and robbed for protection, so as the village chief, he will unite the villagers and let them unite with the outside world.

Because of its unity, Houshan Village has not been bullied by landlords and big landlords over the years.

Everyone has land and land, and their lives are much richer than those of other villages.

Today, Gu Huanhuan was named Mrs. De by the emperor, which is another barrier to protect them for Houshan Village.

It is necessary to open an ancestral hall to comfort the ancestors and the people who have contributed to the Houshan Village for so many years.

The clan elder went inside and recited some words, and then asked Gu Huanhuan to go in and kowtow.

After she finished kowtowing, the village chief told the history of Houshan Village impassionedly, saying that the neighborhood had been united over the years, and looked forward to the development of Houshan Village in the future.

His warm and sincere statement won the applause of the people of Houshan Village, and other villages were also envious.

Not to mention anything else, Houshan Village is really strong, over the years for the water source and the trees in the mountains, I have earned a lot, but I can't earn Houshan Village.

It's not that there are many people's families, but that people are reasonable, and if they can't be reasonable, people's families are more focused on the outside.

After he made a statement, let Gu Huanhuan also say a few words.

Gu Huanhuan has been an immortal for so many years, and he has seen big scenes.

Walking to the village chief, he said, "Okayama County family, hello, thank you for coming to Houshan Village for a feast. ”

"Hahahaha..."

The crowd erupted in bursts of laughter, and they felt that Mrs. De in front of them was not as difficult to contact as she seemed, and she was quite close to the people.

"Actually, whether it is Mrs. De, or the hero of Okayama County, or Gu Huanhuan from Houshan Village, those are all me.

I am very grateful to the emperor for letting me represent a group, a positive collective, a group that knows how to give back to society.

The ancients said, 'If you are poor, you will be good alone, and if you are good, you will help the world.' I hope that one day, the people of Okayama Prefecture will be able to help the world.

Let's work together to build our own home. ”

The people were already cheering, and Gu Huanhuan raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet.

"I'm here to talk to you about something inconsequential, and I want to ask you, what do you think you can do to get ahead?"
