Chapter 522: Sacrifice

"Brother, I can only accept my fate, in case I can't avoid this catastrophe, I can see you at the end, and I will be satisfied with a few words to you, and when I die, let me return to my roots and be buried with your sister-in-law, you don't have to worry about the mess in my family, but my pair of grandchildren are still good children......"

Fang Qiusheng spoke quickly, and as he spoke, he tried his best to break away from his younger brother's arm, his expression became more and more determined, to the point that he had a bit of the noisy demeanor of his youth.

A group of spectators at the door, whether it is Shangqingguan or Baiyun Temple, what Luo Zhenren, Master Li, all of them shut their mouths, put their hands behind their backs, and hide to the side, usually speaking, on the territory of the Fang family, they can be a decoration in a down-to-earth manner.

Fang Chunsheng smiled, didn't argue with him, and really let go of his hand, but Fang Ruohua and Fang Ruoxin, one left and one right, easily raised his arm, and said with a smile: "Grandpa, the ancestral hall is about to open, let's go." ”

The strength of the two little girls was very strong, and as soon as they dragged it, others were dragged towards the gate of the ancestral hall.

Fang Qiusheng almost cried: "Don't believe in evil, I know that there are not many people in the mainland who believe in these things now, but Chunsheng, don't forget that our grandfather also understands this, there are indeed unclean things in the world, and mortals like me can't resist it at all......"

As he spoke, the door of the ancestral hall was opened.

The huge candle was lit, and its own solemn atmosphere was permeated, and even Fang Qiusheng closed his mouth, not daring to say more and think more.

As an old man, since he believes in this, of course he must also respect the ancestors, but he is really uneasy in his heart, and his expression does not belong.

But at the beginning of the procedure, Fang Qiusheng seemed to be driven by something, knelt down and bowed again, incense, and listened to Fang Chunsheng whisper: "The eldest brother has returned home from overseas, and my brother is reunited for the first time after fifty years of separation. ”

The breeze blows, and the lights and candles flicker.

Fang Chunsheng put on the incense, raised his hand and waved.

Fang Ruohua took a step forward, walked out of the temple gate, and climbed onto the high platform in front of the door, and Fang Xing's brothers and sisters also came out one after another.

This kind of ancestor worship activity has been held twice, everyone is familiar with it, and there is no need to remind it, Fang Xing took Fang Tao, Fang Ruoxin, and Fang Yu and Fang Pan, two brothers and sisters, holding drumsticks, and vigorously beating the placed drum.

The drums are thundering and magnificent.

Fang Yu and Fang Pan had never done such a thing, they were like chasing ducks to the shelves at the beginning, for fear of embarrassment, and they couldn't be nervous, but once they really held the drumsticks and stood between their brothers and sisters, a hot current surged in their hearts.

They didn't understand what it was like, they were just strangers who had met for a short time, but they were at ease, they were happy, and this was something they would never feel when they were in the United States all these years and had a party with a dozen or so close friends.

"Lonely souls and wild ghosts retreat!"

More than twenty men and women dressed in the same clothes around shouted in unison, Fang Ruohua stepped on the drum and jumped up, hovering and rising, as if dancing, and like fighting, not to mention Fang Yu and Fang Pan, even Fang Qiusheng, who had infinite sorrow hidden in his heart, couldn't help but be fascinated.

He doesn't know how to dance, but this kid dances so well that he can't get tired of watching it even if he is allowed to stand by and watch it for the rest of his life.

Fang Qiusheng's eyes were red, and he sighed in his heart, he could have this opportunity, he could worship his ancestors, what else did he think about, the big deal was death, the big deal was that he didn't want his face, he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, begging that man to break his body into pieces, don't embarrass his brother and children.

This is the mainland, and that person must not dare to be unscrupulous.

After Fang Ruohua danced the sacrificial dance, brushed off the beads of sweat on his forehead, and personally led a group of juniors to offer wine and meat sacrifices.

Sanskrit sounds sounded in the ancestral hall.

As soon as the procedure passed, Fang Chunsheng stepped forward to ask for the genealogy, unfolded it little by little, took out the pen and handed it to Fang Ruohua.

Fang Ruohua nodded and smiled: "Fang Qiusheng...... Fang Yu and Fang Pan, please step forward. ”

Fang Qiusheng and the two children looked at each other, but they still walked forward honestly, Fang Shiyi came over and put down the two futons.

To be honest, they are really not used to these things abroad, but in the current atmosphere, the two of them don't feel that anything is inappropriate at all, and they kneel down honestly.

Only then did Fang Ruohua speak: "I ask on behalf of the ancestors, your father and son are willing to swear that from now on, they will uphold righteousness, practice diligently, distinguish between right and wrong, abide by righteousness and ward off evil, do not violate family rules, and do not insult the lintel." ”

Fang Yu and Fang Pan were stunned, but the faces of the people present were very solemn.

Just outside the ancestral hall, dozens of people stood silently watching the ceremony, one by one without any sense of existence, but their appearance was neat and tidy, and their expressions were solemn, and they did not dare to mess around on this occasion.

Fang Qiusheng wanted to cry even more.

opened his mouth, but he was speechless for a while, as if there was something special in his heart, and finally spoke one after another: "My father and son swear that they will never violate the family rules and not dishonor the lintel of our house." ”

Fang Ruohua asked several times in a row, and received a positive answer, and then wrote down the names of the three Qiusheng people below on the family tree.

"In the future, if your other children and grandchildren return to China, after review, there is no problem with morality, and you can re-enter the family tree."

Fang Chunsheng stepped forward and said with a smile, stretched out his hand and beckoned, Fang Twelve came over with a tray in his hand, Fang Chunsheng opened it for his eldest brother to see: "It's a genealogy, it's made, brother, you can take it." ”

Fang Qiusheng nodded, and suddenly felt that the bones were a few pounds lighter: "Okay." ”

After collecting the genealogy, the ancestor worship was about to end, Fang Ruohua stepped forward and took his family to send the ancestors and ancestors away.

The breeze is blowing, and the incense ash is everywhere.

The entire ancestor worship activity of the Fang family is simple and solemn from beginning to end, and the whole family, including Fang Qiusheng's two grandsons and granddaughters who grew up abroad, are really in the ancestral hall, and they usually watch this kind of behavior that they usually watch on TV and watch in movies, and they will always feel funny, so that they can truly experience the sense of identity from the bottom of their hearts.

Before this, Fang Yu and Fang Pan were guests in this land, guests of the Fang family, at this moment, they felt that their roots could only be here.

Fang Qiusheng walked out of the gate of the ancestral hall, called Fang Yu and Fang Pan to his side, sighed, and pressed their shoulders with an attitude of leaving a last word: "I have built a fund for one of you, and when I return to the United States, I can go to your Uncle Short, he knows where my will is, and he also told your father for me, he doesn't like to run a company, so he will hand it over to professional managers, those uncles who are too used to you are not worrying, I have left them enough money to live, they are my responsibility, not your father's." ”

Feeling that time was short, Fang Qiusheng still had a lot to say, but he knew that he had no time.

"Chunsheng, brother is sorry for you, it was so difficult at home back then, but my brother wanted to go out and wander around, and I didn't think about how difficult it would be for you to leave you at home alone, you are all at this age, and my brother just wants to make amends...... Forget it, to make a long story short, my brother left something for you in the bank safe......"

Fang Chunsheng saw that he was already frightened and almost desperate, so he hurriedly stopped: "Big brother, don't say so much, now let's experience it, how is your body?" How does it feel? ”

"Huh?"

Fang Qiusheng was stunned, "What do you feel?" ”
