After the not-so-sumptuous dinner, Masako Mitsui and Eika Komura touched their stomachs very exaggeratedly, revealing a satisfied little woman.

At this time, Komura Huixiang said even more exaggeratedly to Li Zhongxin: "Faithful! Why is this thing you make here so delicious? It's been a long time since I've eaten anything like this. ”

Eika Komura no longer has that kind of demeanor, just like the girl next door.

Eika Komura was already very rich at this time, and it can be said that she had eaten everything delicious, but she was attracted by the iron pot stew in the northeast.

The most exaggerated thing is Haruko's female classmate, whose face is red all the time, and it almost says I'm embarrassed on her face.

Among the guests who came from Japan, only Masako Mitsui has always maintained that demeanor, chatting with Li Zhongxin from time to time, and not eating these things so much.

It's just that Masako Mitsui is also wondering, such a delicacy can be eaten here in China.

This kind of food is different from the food you eat in Japan, and although it looks very greasy, it doesn't feel greasy in your mouth, and it is full of flavor.

What about that scent! It's the aroma of chicken, a strange fragrance mixed with hazelnut mushrooms, and when you eat it in your mouth, you will only feel delicious, and you want to grab some more, but if you don't catch it, you won't have it.

The same is true for the aroma of the fish, especially the stewed vermicelli and soybean curd in the fish, these two things are more fragrant than the fish, and the inside is almost full of fish-flavored taste, plus the original taste, that kind of smoothness, that kind of comfort, it is simply an endless aftertaste.

Li Zhongxin's parents and grandmother! They simply ate some things and got off the table, although they didn't have any aversion to Mitsui Masako being a guest at home, but they always felt awkward, there were too many deep-rooted things in their hearts, even if Haruko stayed at home for a while when she was a child, they didn't have much of that kind of closeness, and the most important thing was that they felt that they and Haruko Mitsui Masako were incompatible in terms of language communication and that sense of hierarchy.

"Brother Faithful, I just heard them say that there is something called a fire kang on your side, is that so? But how come there isn't that kind of thing in the place where we live? After seeing Wang Yaqing and Li Shangyong and them getting off the table, Qingzi wiped her mouth with a tissue and asked very suspiciously.

Haruko is very concerned about the kang she talks about during dinner, because she has never lived in such a place, when she was a child at Li Zhongxin's house, she played on the kang, but she has never slept on the kang in winter, she wants to try the kang.

When Li Zhongxin's family was designing, there was a design of a fire kang, and there were fire kang upstairs and downstairs, what about this! It was also thought of by Li Zhongxin, after all, when the old people in the Northeast lived, they all wanted to live on the ondol, and his grandparents and other people naturally needed to use the kang when they lived here.

"I want to sleep on the fire! There's nothing wrong with that, but yes! No, I didn't arrange such a kind of accommodation for you today, and the day after tomorrow, I will ask people to get a few sets of brand new quilts or something, and then let you all live in our northeast ondol.

Tomorrow morning! Gemino and Bamlovsky should go back to Jiangcheng, and after I go to pick up the plane, I will take you to the Songhua River to play some ice entertainment, and in the afternoon I will take you to see the winter fishing. Li Zhongxin said to Haruko with a smile.

In the matter of living on the fire kang, Li Zhongxin did not refuse Haruko, after all, the fire kang in the northeast is a major feature, and there is such a fire kang in his house for them to live in, but Li Zhongxin knows that Mitsui Masako and they are all clean people, and they must get some brand new quilts and mattresses for them, so that they can live on the fire kang.

After chatting for a while, Li Zhongxin asked Feng Banshan to drive Mitsui Masako and the others back to the Jiangcheng Hotel, Li Zhongxin called Zhao Yuanyuan and arranged to play after buying a few sets of futons tomorrow, and then rested early.

Early the next morning, Li Zhongxin asked Feng Banshan and Wang Hao to drive Mitsui Masako and a few of them to their home.

After eating a hearty breakfast at Li Zhongxin's house, Haruko asked with some doubts, "Faithful! You got a picture of the incense spot in your house, and put some pastries and dumplings and the like, what does this mean? How do I look at the people in there, I've seen them? ”

"That's my great-grandfather Wang Xiutai, you saw it when you came to my house to play when you were a child, he is now dead, we are offering to them, and it can be regarded as inviting ancestors." Li Zhongxin said lightly.

"Is this also the folk custom of your people in the Northeast?" Mitsui Masako asked with a strange face, she now found a problem, those Chinese folk customs are a little too much, so much that she can't understand.

"Aunt Masako, what about this! I'll explain it to you like this, and you'll understand. Our Chinese lunar calendar is divided into large and small months, the so-called big month is 30 days, and the small month is only 29 days. Therefore, when the wax moon is a small month, the twenty-ninth day is the last day of the year. Then the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month is Chinese New Year's Eve, even if it is not a small month, the next day is Chinese New Year's Eve, so all kinds of preparatory activities for the New Year must be completed on this day.

In the whole New Year's Festival, the 29th day can be said to be the busiest day, in addition to preparing for the various food and clothing offerings in the New Year's Festival, there is also an extremely important activity "going to the grave to invite the ancestors". Therefore, the annual rumor says, "On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, go to the grave and ask the ancestors to make a big offering."

The worship of ancestors has a long history in China. Death is not only an important symbol of filial piety, but also a virtue of respecting the elderly. The Spring Festival is a big festival, and the ceremony of going to the grave to invite ancestors is particularly solemn. The time to go to the grave to ask for ancestors, most areas to ask ancestors on the morning of the 29th.

This is my great-grandfather, the most important relative in our family, and the others! We don't have to think about it, we just think about my grandfather. At this time, I offered him an offering to ask him to come back and see the happy life we have now, so that he can live in another world with peace of mind. To put it bluntly, it is a kind of spiritual sustenance. I hope that the lives of the living are getting better and better, and what about the dead! It's getting better and better in the other world. While explaining the folk customs of the 29th lunar month with Masako Mitsui, Li Zhongxin picked up the incense next to the small incense burner, lit it and put it in it, and chanted in his mouth: "Grandpa, I have given you incense, I hope you are happy and safe over there, and I also bless our family with happiness and peace." ”
