450.Chapter 450 (75)
According to the etiquette of the funeral 'inviting ghosts', the tenth dish is the highlight of the whole banquet and the highlight of the whole service, commonly known as 'falling vegetables'.
There are two kinds of 'falling vegetables', one is the 'falling vegetables' in marriage, also called 'falling flowers'. One is the 'falling vegetables' on the funeral, and the etiquette is more complicated and even a little cumbersome.
First of all, when the tenth dish is served, the filial sons and grandsons of the deceased should kneel and kowtow to thank the ancestors and ancestors for coming to the funeral.
The so-called three to two into five refers to the filial son and grandson kneeling at the end of the Dharma field, kowtowing three times, kneeling forward two steps, making five times, repeating the cycle, until the offering table.
When they arrive at the offering table, filial sons and grandsons cannot be idle, and they need to use white cloth to lay a white cloth road three inches and seven inches wide until the end of the Dharma field. On both sides of the road, some fruits, yellow paper, candle ingots need to be placed for the ancestors to take the white cloth road, eat as they please, take as they please, there is a great wealth and nobility in it, so this white cloth road is called 'Fu Road'.
In the Spring Festival couplets, birthday celebrations, many people in order to get an auspicious picture, will be the word "Fu" upside down paste, according to the current meaning, Fu to, in fact, "Fu" upside down paste originally originated from the "Fu Road", symbolizing that the living can be like the ancestors to walk the "Fu Road", rich and noble.
After paving the 'blessed road', it means that those ancestors and ancestors will leave. At this time, the descendants need to cry, the more sad the voice, the better, the meaning is twofold, one is to remember the grace of the ancestors and ancestors, and the other is to hope that the ancestors and ancestors can bring the soul of the deceased to the underworld, so as to avoid the pain of the ghost escort.
Of course, these rituals are relatively old and rarely used nowadays, but they are still used in some remote villages, and this horse walking village happens to have this ritual.
So, when the ninth dish was served, the sister-in-law asked me to tell me such a etiquette.
After hearing the etiquette, I was in trouble at that time, the deceased's family of three died, where to find filial sons and grandchildren, isn't it embarrassing?
When serving the food, there is not so much time to think about it, so let the eight immortals go to pave the 'blessing road', as for the etiquette of three to two into five, it is really impossible to get it down, after all, we eight immortals are just eight immortals, and we can't pretend to be the filial sons and grandsons of the deceased because of money, so it is unlucky for our eight immortals' parents, and there is a curse in it.
Originally, those Eight Immortals were reluctant to pave the 'Fu Road', saying that it would affect their fortunes, but fortunately, the sincerity of the Walking Horse Village was not bad, and they added 200 yuan to each of them, plus Mr. Fan said good things on the side, saying that helping others is helping oneself, and it will accumulate Yin virtue, and those Eight Immortals reluctantly agreed.
After they discussed everything, the eight immortals were busy paving the 'Fu Road', and Lao Wang took the tenth dish and shouted: "The last dish is here!" Watch out for the perm! ”
Immediately afterward, he took a step and walked into the hall, and he didn't know what was going on, as soon as the old king's right foot stepped into the hall, the sweat of the bean dripped, and the dish in his hand trembled.
When I saw this, I secretly screamed that it was not good, and that my worst fear had happened, that something had broken into the banquet.
At the moment, I showed a hideous look on my face, and shouted when I opened my voice: "Ten dishes to see the ancestors of the wine, at this time drinking tears, the family sits at a table, the front of the hall ushered in the Lao Jun order, I will Lao Dai, the ancestors drink wine and I look at the dishes, thin wine and vegetarian dishes express their hearts, the sky is jealous of the talent is less than four, provoke the ghost to grab food, I invite the old gentleman to the front of the hall, the rolling thunder will fall immediately, and the soul will be destroyed and there will be no afterlife." ”
Shouting this, I suddenly threw the spirit banner in my hand next to Lao Wang, and said angrily: "Lao Jun went down to the ghosts to avoid ghosts, and watch the thunder fall later!" ”
As I spoke, I ran to the offering table with an arrow step, picked up those dishes and chopsticks and smashed them on the ground, scolding while smashing: "I want to see today, what a ghost dares to come here to make trouble, a horse, really shameless, how can there be an uninvited reason, I will let you eat, let you eat." ”
After scolding these words, I glanced at Lao Wang, who was still like that, holding a plate and sweating profusely.
Made, it's really weird, it's said that something breaks into the banquet, and as long as you 'please' Laojun, smash the plate, and swear words, you can get rid of those things.
But why doesn't it work? Could it be that the scolding is not harsh enough?
Thinking of this, I immediately thought of Widow Liu in our village, she scolded talents, she knew that this would be the case, so I brought her, she can reach thousands of troops with one mouth.
Fighting, my heart was very good, and I began to learn the way of Widow Liu's scolding, one hand in the waist, the other hand pointed to the side of Lao Wang, and scolded: "I said that you are in the hall, sleep with your sister-in-law, hold your sister, kiss your sister, and ride your sister-in-law." ”
Cursing, I spat in that direction, threw the bowl, and threw everything I could throw around.
This action made those people watching the excitement outside the hall stunned, and many people were saying: "Then Chen Baxian won't have sheep madness, right?" ”
Hearing this, I was really dumb and ate Coptis chinensis, and I couldn't say anything about my suffering, so I had to continue throwing things.
I thought about asking people to bring some bad things to the hall, but when I remembered that I was doing a funeral, if I moved those bad things, it would affect the normal funeral, so I could only bite the bullet.
To tell the truth, our Eight Immortals Cup is very good, and we don't know Taoism or anything at all, so we can only rely on some habits handed down from the countryside to disgust the ghosts and drive them away, but sometimes, these tricks don't work at all.
No, I threw away all the things on the table except for the black and white photos, Lao Wang was still like that, which frightened me, and immediately threw a look at Mr. Fan for help, who knows, the old thing ignored me at all, only cared about smoking, as if the scene in front of him had nothing to do with him.
Made, damn old thing, I cursed, grabbed a wooden bench, and ran to the old king.
When I came to Lao Wang, I lifted the wooden bench and smashed it down, and the wooden bench broke with a bang, and the sawdust flew everywhere. Immediately afterward, the air in the hall seemed to be much fresher.
"Lao Wang, it's okay!" I shouted.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said in a trembling voice, "No... Not... It's okay! ”
Hearing him say this, I put my mind at ease and looked around vigilantly, many people looked at me with neurotic eyes, I didn't pay attention to those people, and asked Lao Wang: "Are those things gone?" ”
He nodded, wiped his sweat again, and said, "It seems to be gone, it seems that he hasn't left, and I can only know if I ask Daoist Qingxuanzi to come over." ”
As soon as I heard this, my brows furrowed, and I said, "Daoist Qingxuanzi is doing important things behind the hall, and there is no room for sloppiness, this matter can only be done by ourselves." ”
"Ahh Lao Wang exclaimed in surprise and said, "Nine Guys, you have to think clearly, if this matter is not handled properly, it will cause death." ”
