Chapter Forty-Eight: Recognizing the Ancestors and Returning to the Ancestors (I)

years, for many people, is a kind of spiritual sustenance. Especially for the older generation, it is more about inheritance and culture. In the new year, Guo Feng hurried home all the way, for this new year, and for the end of the year.

When he arrived at home, Guo Feng found that everyone in the family had already arrived, and he was the latest to come back.

"Mom, why did you come back so early this year?" She asked as she cleaned up with her mother.

"Early? We only came home yesterday, okay? It's not your aunt who wants to explain things to you, or I wouldn't have to clean up with your dad and your brother today. Wipe the table clean, and the mother replied. Guo Feng was speechless after hearing this. This is really a mother!

"Then this, then you can't blame me! Tell me, my aunt originally came to let me come back on the 26th, but she dragged it until the 28th. You will come back on the evening of the 27th, don't you rush it! Complaining to his mother, Guo Feng wiped it with a dry rag and said helplessly.

"Gotta get it, what's the love, anyway, your kid is doing well this year, and the family is doing well, do you have any plans for the end of the year?" didn't want to say anything to Guo Feng, so her mother turned her head to look at Guo Feng and asked. Guo Feng was also stunned when he heard it, thought about it, and said to his mother: "Our school requires social practice this year, and I should go to some places." ”

The mother was also stunned when she heard this. Social? I've heard a lot of holiday homework over the years. Guo Feng's reason why he doesn't want to do holiday homework is also a lot of listening. But this time, my mother didn't understand what it was. In the end, it was the school's homework or Guo Feng's reason.

"Mom, what do you want?" Feeling that my mother was a little confused, I took the information on my phone and showed it to my mother.

...... "Then you can ask your brother to do you a favor!" Just ask them to make a seal and make up a copy for you. "Mother doesn't want Guo Feng to leave her at the end of the year. After all, there is not much time to get together, and if you waste this maximum time, you will know less about your children.

"I'm wondering, should you go back to your hometown and sacrifice? Enter the family tree? On the second day of the Lunar New Year, after Guo Feng finished eating, his mother looked at Guo Feng's appearance and said to Guo Feng.

“…… Mother? Genealogy? Don't we have our own genealogy on our side? Guo Feng was speechless for a while after hearing this, and then thought of the fact that there was a family tree in his family, and asked suspiciously.

"Our family's genealogy is ours. There is also a genealogy on it, and further up is our family, the real Guo family tree. After the mother finished speaking, she looked at her father, and Guo Feng also looked at her father with her mother's gaze, waiting for the decision of the head of the family.

"I think it's okay, on the fifth day of the first month, I'll talk to some elders in the clan and prepare for Feng'er's ancestral return ceremony." The father looked at Guo Feng, thought about it, got up and said, and went back to the hall. Leaving Guo Feng at the dining table full of doubts.

On the fifth day of the first lunar month, Guo Feng's family went to the Guo clan land in Baishui. Looking at the cordial conversation between his parents and some elders in the clan, the younger generations in the clan looked at Guo Feng, a person who had returned to his ancestors and recognized his ancestors, with a strange face. In fact, in the past few years, the various lines of the Guo family have blossomed and fallen in various places, and they have all formed their own factions in their own developments, regardless of the origin of the sect. Therefore, in recent years, there are fewer and fewer clansmen who recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors, and the Guo family has encountered more and more resistance to the development of Baishui.

Guo Feng's father was different, he was favored by several elders in the clan back then, and the tuition fees for four years of college were all provided by the clan funds in the clan, and his father has always been very concerned about the development of the clan. This time, Guo Feng returned to his ancestors and recognized his ancestry, and he also hoped that Guo Feng could help the clan develop in the future. After all, under the inheritance from generation to generation, many things have faded, and the sense of identity for blood within the clan has gradually declined.

On the sixth day of the first lunar month, Guo Feng entered the ancestral hall of the clan. In the ancestral hall, there is a sense of heaviness. On the ancestral hall, dense ancestral spirit cards, candles all night long, two rows of pear blossom wood seats in the middle hall, four big pillars in the hall, the younger generations of the clan are placed behind the pillars. The elders took their seats, and a man in his thirties stood in the hall and took out a red scroll, and shouted loudly: "Please Guo Yu, a foreign clan of the Guo family, a subordinate Guo Fei, and Guo Fei's great-grandson - Guo Feng into the ancestral hall!" ”

After Guo Feng, who was outside the ancestral hall, heard the shouting, he tidied up his appearance, and according to his father's instructions, his waist was straight, and his eyes were level. Under the scrutiny of the people of the clan, Guo Feng entered the middle hall.

"Guo Yu's foreign clan is a line, a subordinate Guo Fei, and Guo Fei's great-grandson - Guo Feng! Ask for a return to your ancestors! Enter the family tree! Guo Feng stood in the middle hall, looked at the clan elders sitting in front of him, knelt down with his legs, clasped his fists and saluted the elders, and replied loudly.

"Grandpa, please!" With a shout, Guo Feng saw a column of people coming out of the back hall, and his father was supporting an old man and slowly came to the front of the middle hall. The elders sitting on both sides of the column got up one after another and greeted the old man when they saw the comers. A chair was also placed in the middle of the central hall, and after the old man sat down, everyone sat down one after another.

Guo Feng looked at his father, and when he saw that his father handed him a message that he was fine, Guo Feng was also relieved. He got up again and saluted the old man.

"Hello grandpa! Guo Yu, a foreign family of the Guo family, a subordinate Guo Fei, and Guo Fei's great-grandson - Guo Feng. Please join the clan! ”
