Volume 1 Juvenile Chapter 51 Portrait
"You said that you kid, you ran out early in the morning of the New Year, and didn't tell us, do you know how worried I am about you?" Lin Nan looked at Shang Hao, who bowed his head and didn't speak, angrily. and the nymph who sat on Shang Hao's shoulder and also bowed his head and didn't speak.
"You went out, at least tell us, right? On the first day of the new year, the family sacrifice couldn't find you at noon, so they sent the whole family out to find you, you are good, go to the vast forest!" Lin Nanyue thought about it, the more angry he became, he couldn't help but reprimand Shang Hao a few more words.
"Mother, I was wrong, it's not that Nymph wants to go back to the vast forest to see, so I took her there, this time, I forgot about the sacrifice" Shang Hao looked at Lin Nan with a smile.
Nymph, who was sitting on her shoulder, felt Shang Hao's thoughts, and also raised her head, staring at Lin Nan with two big eyes, with some tears in her eyes, looking very aggrieved.
Looking at Shang Hao and Nymph, Lin Nan was also angry and funny, waved his hand and said helplessly, "Forget it, this time for the sake of Nymph, I will spare you, after a day of play, I am hungry, take Nymph to eat something, and then come to the ancestral hall."
"Okay, get the order, let's go, Nymph go, let's have dinner" As soon as Shang Hao heard Lin Nan's words, he instantly became happy and ran towards the kitchen.
"You run slowly, take care of the Nymph!" Lin Nan looked at Shang Hao's departing back and shouted helplessly.
......
......
Ancestral hall sacrifice is a traditional tradition of the human race. Sacrifice, in addition to remembrance, also has the role of inheritance. In the incense, what stretches is the spiritual will of the clan inheritance.
Finally escaped Lin Nan's nagging, and Shang Hao didn't dare to slack off anymore. After eating some dinner in a hurry, Shang Hao took the Nymph to the ancestral hall of the Shang Mansion.
When Shang Hao arrived at the ancestral hall, Shang Qian and Lin Nan were waiting here.
Seeing Shang Hao coming, Lin Nan didn't speak, Shang Qian stepped forward and said, "I didn't find you at noon, your mother and I are waiting for you to come together in the evening." ”
"Dad, I'm sorry, I really didn't expect this. Shang Hao touched his head a little embarrassed.
"It's okay, I'm not so particular, just get my mind!" Shang Qian has never been a very strict way to teach Shang Hao, and he is very open-minded every time.
Inside the ancestral hall, there is a sandalwood table, on which all the tablets of the Shang family's direct line are placed on it in turn, starting from the first generation of the Shang family. The bottom one is Shang Hao's grandfather, Shang Zhaoyan. On the side, there was a small sandalwood table, on which there was only a separate tablet, Carlo Hus.
This is what Shang Qian asked to add during this year's New Year's sacrifice, and the Shang clan has no opinion on this. Although Carlo was a passerby, he gave Shang Hao a second life, and being treated like this should also be respected.
Shang Hao lit three pillars of incense, inserted it in the incense burner in front of the ancestral tablet of the family, saluted very respectfully, and then lit a stick of incense and inserted it into the incense burner in front of the Carlo tablet.
As bursts of white smoke rose, Shang Hao couldn't help but think of the scenes that Carlo had taught him, and his eyes couldn't help but moisten a little. Suddenly remembering something, Shang Hao turned his head to look at Shang Zhaoyan's tablet.
"Dad, my grandfather saved a woman named Dong Xingxue before, do you remember?" Shang Hao looked at Shang Qian and asked.
"Dong Xingxue, I haven't heard of it, but it seems that there is such a thing as saving a woman, didn't Mr. Carlo mention it when he was there before? Shang Qian thought about it for a while, but did not find an image of the woman Shang Hao asked.
Shang Zhaoyan died very early, and Shang Hao didn't have any hope. The Nymph, who was sitting on Shang Hao's shoulder, suddenly flew up, and his little hand gently pressed on Shang Qian's head.
Shang Qian was slightly stunned at first, and then showed a thoughtful expression.
Nymph's hand was removed from Shang Qian's head, and Shang Qian looked at Shang Hao and said, "The woman in the picture just now, I seem to have seen ...... somewhere?"
"Dad, think about it, this matter is very important to me!" Shang Hao was a little surprised and a little anxious.
"Oh, by the way, I remember, it should be in your grandfather's relics, in the warehouse, I'll take you to find it." After that, Shang Qian explained a few more words to Lin Nan, then cleaned up the table of the ancestral hall, and walked towards the storage room of the Shang Mansion with Shang Hao.
The storage room is located in the innermost part of the backyard, which is also the place where some sundries are stacked at home on weekdays, but the housekeeper tidies up here fairly clean on weekdays.
Walking into the storage room, Shang Qian walked straight to the innermost corner. There was a wooden box in the corner, and when he stepped forward, Shang Qian opened it, rummaged through the box for a while, and took out a scroll.
When Shang Hao turned the scroll, a trace of doubt flashed, and the other objects in the box were more or less dusty, but this scroll was clean, as if it had been put in it freshly. But the slightest doubt was quickly put behind me.
With a little excitement in his heart, he unfolded the scroll, and the scroll was almost the same height as Shang Haoqi, which was the portrait of Dongxingxue. The person in the portrait is as beautiful as a fairy, Shang Hao really saw the whole picture of Dongxingxue, and he couldn't help but feel a little sad when he thought of Carlo.
Looking down, I saw a row of small characters in the lower right corner of the scroll.
"When I was in trouble, thanks to the head of the Shang family, Mr. Shang Zhaoyan rescued me, if the Shang family is in trouble, the East Star Dragon Clan should do their best to help when they see this portrait - East Star Snow. ”
"I don't know the specifics of this matter, we are four brothers, I am the youngest, you go to your uncle to ask, if he doesn't even know, then no one knows. The guards and maids in the house have long been replaced, and the old housekeeper also passed away five years ago, and it is a bit difficult for your grandfather to pursue it when he was young. Shang Qian looked at Shang Hao's appearance, sighed secretly, and then said to Shang Hao.
"I know Dad, I'll go to find the uncle" Shang Hao heard Shang Qian's words, put away the scroll and ran towards the uncle's residence in the inner courtyard.
"Slow down, don't be in such a hurry"
......
......
When Shang Hao arrived at Uncle Shang Hong's courtyard, Shang Hong was talking to Shang Ming about something, and when he saw Shang Hao coming, Shang Ming warmly beckoned Shang Hao to come over.
"Hao'er, where did you run away during the day? Your father and mother are looking for you everywhere!" Seeing Shang Hao, Shang Hong asked about the daytime as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Uncle let you worry about it, I went out in a bit of a hurry during the day, and now it's been solved" Shang Hao hurriedly explained, avoiding Shang Hong's continued questioning.
"Xiao Hao, are you here so late, what's the matter?" Shang Ming looked at Shang Hao's appearance and estimated that Shang Hao had something to do, and asked.
"Yes, I'm here for something I want to ask Uncle," Shang Hao said as he took out the scroll from the storage artifact and unfolded it for Shang Hong and Shang Ming to see.
"This is?" Shang Ming's face was full of doubt
"How did you find this portrait?" Shang Hong was slightly stunned at first, and then asked.
"Uncle, do you know anything?" Shang Hao saw Shang Hong's appearance, and knew that Shang Hong should know something, so he immediately asked.
