The outhouse of the ancestral hall was not big, and the little girl ran from under the table of the Eight Immortals by virtue of her height advantage, and when Su Xiaoting reacted and wanted to catch up, the little girl had already walked to the door.

"Sister, you can't go in!"

There is only one doorway in the inner room and the outer room, there is no door, the little obedient stood in front of the doorway and stopped, not because of Su Xiaoting's words, but standing here, she found that it was too dark inside, and she didn't dare to go in.

Su Xiaoting's shouting also made the eyes of the three adults focus on the little girl.

Su Xiaoting bypassed the table, took the little obedient little hand, and said seriously: "Obedient, inside is where the ancestors sleep, you can't go in and disturb them!" ”

When Bai Zhi heard this, he glanced at Su Qinghe in surprise, and then hurriedly stepped forward, wanting to pull away the little girl.

It's just that although the little girl didn't dare to go in, her big eyes still stared at it tightly, as if something inside attracted her.

"Don't worry, it's okay, if you don't let people in, you won't have a door." The old god of Su Qinghe appeased Bai Zhi, added the last tea and wine, put down the wine jug and walked over, and glanced at Su Xiaoting, "Tingting, didn't you sneak in and see it?" ”

Su Xiaoting showed a tangled expression, and then confessed: "I went in once, but it was too dark inside, there was nothing, and I couldn't see anything." ”

"Nothing?" Bai Zhi said suspiciously, Su Xiaoting's sentence just now, she thought that there was an ancestral tablet enshrined in it.

"I can't say that there is nothing, but the ancestral hall has been rebuilt now, and I don't know what the situation is like inside." Su Qinghe said.

At this time, the little obedient also turned his head, pointed inside and looked at Su Qinghe, "Dad go"

"Okay, Dad will go first and take a look, and I'll call you in later." Su Qinghe took out his mobile phone and turned on the flashlight, and when Su Qinghai saw this, he hurriedly followed.

The old house is at the foot of the mountain, the ancestral hall is closer to the foot of the mountain, and the deep environment can often see snakes, rats, ants and insects that do not like light.

When Su Qinghe was a child, he and Su Quan and Su Fu secretly went in with a flashlight, and saw with their own eyes that there were snakes inside.

There are mixed opinions about snakes in the countryside, but the truth is that the snakes they encounter in the wild or while they are working are not good snakes. However, if you encounter it when you sweep the grave or see it in the ancestral hall, then this snake will become the ancestral incarnation in the mouth of adults, and it is spiritual.

Since the ancestral hall was rebuilt, Su Qinghe walked around it and didn't find anything unusual.

But for this environment, he couldn't help but complain: "What do the adults think, they have rebuilt the ancestral hall, and they don't open a window here?" ”

"It doesn't cost more to open a window, I didn't think that someone would come into the back room, and it is not a big problem to have no lighting, it is good to be dark, at least it will make the children dare not come in." Su Qinghai said, the mobile phone flashlight found the north wall, and bowed respectfully three times.

When Su Qinghe saw it, he also turned on the light, and bowed respectfully three times before he looked at the red paper and black letters posted on the wall.

Compared to the red paper pasted on the wall of the outhouse, there are fourteen pieces of red paper in the inner room, each with a name and a surname written on it, as well as a specific date of birth.

Looking at the brand-new red paper, Su Qinghe asked, "This is newly written, right?" ”

Su Qinghai nodded and said, "After the ancestral hall is rebuilt, it will be changed every year!" ”

"Eh, you've been at home for a long time, I'll ask you a question." Su Qinghe pulled down Su Qinghai and looked at the red paper pasted on the wall, "Why don't you stick it in the outhouse?" ”

"You ask me this, how do I know?" Su Qinghai shook his head, when they were children, they were not sensible, but as they grew older year by year, they felt more and more that something must have happened in the village, so that these ancestors on the wall could only condescend to the back room and be worshiped by the incense of the descendants, but they could not announce it to the public, and even the old people in the village rarely talked about it.

Probably because Su Qinghe and Su Qinghai stayed inside for a longer time, plus the two exchanged a few words, the little obedient who was waiting outside couldn't wait, and ran in.

Fortunately, the back room is not big, and now it is daylight, and the flashlight light from the two mobile phones and the natural light projected by the door opening can also illuminate the back room.

That's why the little guy was able to find his father accurately and skillfully hug his thighs.

Bai Zhi also followed, and when he saw the red paper and black letters posted on the wall, he immediately found that it was different from the red paper and black letters outside.

The red paper posted on the outside is only written in black with several ancestors, and there are only six or seven sheets, obviously not any ancestor can be listed in the ancestral hall.

But the red paper posted on the back room has a name, a surname, and a birthday, and there are quite a few of them.

With the light of light, Su Xiaoting finally saw clearly what the room in the ancestral hall was like, it was empty, but the red paper on the wall made her exclaim, and then she felt that it was inappropriate, covered her mouth, and whispered: "So much? ”

Although she is young, she has also heard adults mention that the red paper pasted in the ancestral hall is actually the tablet of the ancestors.

But she never knew that there was so much red paper in the back room.

I haven't heard the adults mention it.

……

"The tea and wine landed, everything went smoothly!"

"Tea and wine fall to the ground, wind and water!"

"Tea and wine landing, a million profits!"

After burning the paper money, Su Qinghe and Su Qinghai spilled the tea and wine on the ground with words.

As for this thing, whether it is useful or not is secondary, and the main thing is to please the head. It has been passed down to this day, and it can't be broken just because it feels like superstition, anyway, it's just a matter of moving the mouth.

When she got home, the old lady saw that the clothes on the little girl's ass were all dusty, and asked, Su Xiaoting helped explain, and learned that the little guy actually worshiped his ancestors, and the old lady was so happy that her eyes became a slit.

"If you know to worship your ancestors at such a young age, your ancestors will definitely bless you to be healthy and grow up quickly!"

There's no better way for adults to have a child than that.

"Eldest grandmother, I also worshiped my ancestors, and I also inserted incense ......" Su Xiaoting didn't want the little girl to be beautiful in front of her, and she just recited the words on the incense, this is the first time a little girl has done this kind of thing, and she must talk to the eldest grandmother.

The old lady touched Su Xiaoting's head and said with a relieved smile: "Tingting is also sensible, and she knows how to invite her grandpa and grandma back to drink late!" ”

When she married into Shuangtang Village, Su Xiaoting's grandfather had not yet been born, it can be said that she watched Su Xiaoting's grandfather from birth to death, and then Su Meng was imprisoned, and no one worshipped.

Now, although Su Xiaoting is only incense and has no sacrifices, it should be enough to comfort them in the heavenly spirit.

Su Xiaoting smiled and enjoyed the old lady's touch, and then said: "I also went into the ancestral hall with Uncle Qinghe to see, there are many more notes posted in there than outside!" Grandma, why don't you tell us that there are still so many notes there? ”

"You're still in the back room?" The old lady was stunned for a moment, then sighed heavily, and looked at the sky with cloudy old eyes, and did not speak for a long time.
