Luo Tianwang floated up, and in the blink of an eye, he had already flown to the top of the towering tree, standing on a tree next to Li Qingyuan, and swaying gently as the branches swayed up and down, his body seemed to have no weight. Li Qingyuan is not surprised by this.

"What are you two fathers and sons doing on the tree? Why don't you come down quickly? Today there is a ceremony in the village to taste new rice, and the whole village will participate, and the time is almost up. Li Shishi shouted under the tree.

"Mother, come up quickly, the fruit here is delicious. Li Qingyuan chuckled.

Li Shishi is also soaring, like a fairy flying into the sky. stopped on a thumb-thick branch beside Luo Tianwang. took a fruit as white as jade handed over by Li Qingyuan, rubbed it with a handkerchief, then took a small bite, tasted it, and immediately praised: "Well, this bixian fruit is really ripe." ”

Luo Tianwang clamped Li Qingyuan under his armpit: "Let's go down." They must already be waiting for us. ”

Li Shishi nodded, then took Luo Tianwang's hand, and the two of them flew into the air above the mountain together, passing between the clouds.

He Ma Wan is surrounded by white mist, like a fairyland on earth. Luo Baolin, Luo Guangfu and other old people seem to be getting younger and younger, and their hair not only does not turn white, but slowly decreases, but becomes darker and darker. There are already one or two elderly people over 100 years old in the village, and there are five or six elderly people over 90 years old. The old people could have enjoyed their old age, but the people in the countryside just couldn't stay idle. Luo Baolin, Luo Guangfu and other old people still go to work on the farm. Although the farm work is tiring, these old people are happy.

Luo Tianwang took his wife and son to feel the canteen of He Mawan Farm, where the whole village had gathered. The ceremony of tasting new rice in Ho Ma Wan has become a fixed festival in Ho Ma Wan. The ceremony of tasting new rice is different from other festivals, there is no fixed date, and it needs to be determined according to the ripening time of the rice, but this festival is of great significance to the people of He Ma Wan Village, because the new rice tasting festival is not only a thanksgiving for the good weather for He Ma Wan, but also a celebration of a new life.

Today's Hemawan is already a well-known and wealthy village, where every family lives in a villa and every family has a new car. Everyone in He Mawan has begun to carry a kind of self-confidence. In temperament there has been a radical change.

Luo Shuigen saw Luo Tianwang's family rushing over, and hurriedly came over to greet him: "Tianwang, you are finally here, just waiting for you." You have to preside over this ceremony today. ”

"Where am I presiding? Every day it is the most respected old man in the village who presides. There are so many old people in the village, where is my turn to be born like this?" Luo Tianwang hurriedly said.

"People in the village say that everything in He Ma Wan is because of you, and you are the most respected person in He Ma Wan. Although you are young, you can't hide your contribution to the whole village. This time it's up to you. Luo Shuigen said.

"Tianwang, we old guys can enjoy today's good life because of you. Everyone in the village knows in their hearts and admires you from the bottom of their hearts. Everyone has discussed it early in the morning, and you will preside over this ceremony today. Tianwang, don't let down everyone's hopes. Come on!" Luo Guangfu walked over and pulled Luo Tianwang's arm and pulled him to the stage.

At this time, Luo Tianwang was not easy to object. could only follow Luo Guangfu to the stage, and said with a smile: "Grandpa Guangfu, I don't know how to preside over the ceremony, you have to be on the side." ”

"Yes. What to do, I'll tell you. It's up to you. Luo Guangfu said.

The ritual of tasting new rice is very simple, mainly to sacrifice to heaven and earth, to thank God for the gift, and then hope that the wind and rain will be smooth, and the country and the people will be safe. New rice is the first batch of new rice that has just been harvested from the plantation and is processed by a rice rolling machine after it has been air-dried. Unlike in the past, when the ritual of tasting new rice was performed, it was just a process of tasseling from the field, then peeling a small amount of new millet to get some brown rice, which was cooked in aged rice.

The new rice selected this time is the top-quality rice produced by He Ma Wan to the five-star plantation, and these rice have been bred in the five-star plantation in He Mawan for several generations, and they are close to the elixir, and the new rice produced by these rice is not sold to the outside world at all. So as not to bring some unnecessary trouble to Ho Ma Wan. The best rice sold in Hemawan is produced by Samsung Plantation, and the rice seeds used are not ordinary rice seeds bred on the plantation. Although the cultivated rice contains this certain concentration of aura, it is far from reaching the level of elixir. It is very beneficial for ordinary people, and for monks, it can only be said that it is better than nothing.

Under the guidance of Luo Guangfu, Luo Tianwang finally completed the ceremony of tasting new rice. Men and women in Ho Ma Wan began to set up their tables in the canteen of the plantation. All the ingredients used are from the plantation, and the cooking methods are all old habits of Ho Ma Wan Village, but there are many new tricks in the dishes, which are all learned from outside by the people of Ho Ma Wan.

Luo Shenggui walked up to Luo Tianwang: "Tianwang, the new rice banquet will start soon, you and your sister-in-law will sit down together." ”

Luo Shenggui led Luo Tianwang's family to the first seat, and Luo Tianwang hurriedly said: "This head seat has always been the most senior old man in the village. I can sit anywhere. ”

"Tianwang, you are the host today, where is the host who doesn't sit in the first seat?" Luo Guangfu said with a smile, "Actually, there is not so much attention now, you can sit anywhere." The whole village wants you to sit at the head table, so don't be humble. Yuanyuan, do you like to sit in the head seat?"

Li Qingyuan immediately said, "What's the benefit of sitting on the head seat?"

"There are many benefits to sitting at the head table, and when the food is served, the head table is the first to eat any dish. In other positions, you can only move your chopsticks when you eat the head table. Luo Guangfu said with a smile.

"Then I'll sit at the head table, and I'll be the first to eat. Li Qingyuan said.

Luo Changqing was also arranged at the head seat, and when it came to the situation in the village, Luo Changqing had a lot of words: "Now every day in the village is like a festival." Our village is the same every day, and now it is even more beautiful than in the city. Many people sharpened their heads and thought of coming to our village. However, our village resolutely does not sell houses to the outside world, unless they are married, and resolutely do not accept foreign household registration. In the past, there were still some singles in the village who couldn't get their mother-in-law, but now the girls in the other villages want to marry the young men in our village, and even the old singles don't let go. ”

In a mountain village like He Mawan, there are always some singles who can't get their mother-in-law, and there are more than a dozen singles in He Mawan Village in the past, and now these singles have begged their mother-in-law, not only to get their mother-in-law, but also to get a yellow flower girl who is like a flower. Let some people in the village who have already married start to be tempted. If it weren't for Luo Changqing and other village cadres and the old people in the village to dissuade them, I am afraid that a group of Chen Shimei would have to be released.
