I really don't want to eat soft rice

"Didn't you say yesterday that ancestor worship was in the ancestral hall in the evening?"

"This is the ancestral tomb where each family pays homage to their own ancestors. In the ancestral hall, they commemorate the common ancestors. This grave is to go to the graves of their ancestors."

Han Chao explained to Liu Qingyi.

There are too many messy rules in the countryside, even if they are less than three miles apart, the rules are different.

It's normal for Liu Qingyi, a city woman from outside, not to know these things.

"Then don't you have to go to your house for a while?"

"Yes, the ancestors of our family have genealogical records dating back more than 200 years ago."

"Then can I go with you?"

"Yes, why not."

"Didn't you say that you don't allow women to participate in some activities here?"

Hearing Liu Qingyi's words, Han Chao felt warm again.

He didn't expect that Liu Qingyi would keep in his heart a word he said unintentionally.

Liu Qingyi didn't want to embarrass Han Chao because she did something wrong.

She also knows that there are many rules in some places.Obviously, the hometown of the dog man belongs to this kind of place.

"Then those who don't have a son, why don't they worship their ancestors and go to the grave?"

"What age is it now, there are not so many rules."

"But my ancestor worship here is not like in the city. They are all in the cemetery, and the graves of my ancestors are all on the hills."

"The weather is pretty good these days, and it hasn't rained. Otherwise, your shoes are full of mud."

Han Chao smiled and said to Liu Qingyi.

Han Jiuhua and Hao Jinhua started to work early in the morning. Grandma Liu Ju was sitting in the fire barrel. Han Jiuhua turned on the TV in the morning and played Lanmei Opera, a local opera in Ancheng, Yanguo, on VCD.

Liu Ju is illiterate, but she can basically understand the opera on TV.

When she was young, she could sing all the operas that actors are singing on TV.

So art is really a strange thing sometimes, but an illiterate person can sing a whole opera without saying a word.

This VCD and the new TV set were bought by Han Jiuhua from the acquaintances introduced by Zha Shuhai after Han Chao returned to Yucheng.

If the daughter-in-law in the city wants to come back for the New Year, she must buy some decent things, not too shabby.

Early in the morning of New Year's Eve, the whole Hanjiaba is filled with the breath of New Year's Eve.

Children also get up early this day, and children in rural areas are not as pampered as children in cities.

Some of them are little more than six or seven years old, but they take the lit long sticks of incense to the grave and set off small firecrackers on the side of the road.

They are very happy, because the parents are not very restrained to them on this day.

There is a saying in Hanjiaba that children yearn for the New Year, and adults yearn for planting fields.

The most carefree is childish childhood.

After Liu Qingyi washed up, she walked out of the yard and looked outside.

A six or seven-year-old child walked up to Liu Qingyi, smiled and asked in substandard Mandarin.

"Sister, are the girls in big cities just like you, like the female stars on TV?"

Tong Yan Wuji, he just listened to his grandma saying that when she was chatting with others, and when talking about Liu Qingyi.

Several other children were also standing on the sidelines and laughing non-stop.

The child is very skinny, and the sleeves of the new clothes he just put on are already dirty.

Liu Qingyi smiled, not knowing how to answer the children's questions.

"Alai, study hard. When you go to the city in the future, you will find that they are all fairies like your sister. Come, I will give you candy."

Just at this time, Han Chao also came out of the yard. He happened to have some candy in his hand, and then he distributed the candy to the little kids.

The children took the candy and dispersed happily.

"Brother Xiao Chao, my father and mother chatted and said that you were lucky to marry such a beautiful wife. I think Brother Xiao Chao is handsome and worthy of a beautiful sister in the city."

The little kid called Alai by Han Chao suddenly turned his head and said to Han Chao at the top of his voice, using broken Mandarin.

Liu Qingyi was so happy that the kid sold his parents with just a few candies.

Han and North Korea did not speak, what else could he say?He wasn't angry either, so he wouldn't go to Alai's father to argue about this matter.

Besides, little Ah Lai praised himself for being handsome, saying that he was worthy of Liu Qingyi, children's words were the truth, and adults always lied.

He is too lazy to be angry with those men who are jealous of him!If he is capable, he will be lucky to marry such a beautiful daughter-in-law in the city?

"Alai is cute, isn't she?"

"Quite cute."

"How about we have one too?"

"Hehe, don't ask me if you have the ability, this kind of thing is not up to women."

Liu Qingyi rolled her eyes at the dog man.

Doing exercises every day in Yucheng, without taking any safety measures, getting pregnant is not something that comes naturally.

If she doesn't agree to have a child, Han Chao can be tossed like that every day, what a dog man.

Han Chao was speechless when Liu Qingyi glanced at him.

If she said so, she would be right.

After breakfast, Han Jiuhua took Han Chao and Liu Qingyi to the grave.

Hao Jinhua continues to be busy. After so many years of busy Spring Festival, this is the happiest year.

Han Jiuhua didn't say much along the way, and when he met acquaintances, he just smiled and said hello.

What he said the most was to let Han Chao take care of his wife in the hills. This dirt road is not easy to walk, so don't fall on his wife.

The ancestral tombs of Han Chao's family are scattered all over the small hills, just small soil bags covered with withered grass.

There are no tombstones in front of the graves, and some ancestral graves are so old that Han Jiuhua himself doesn't know whether it is his great-grandfather or his great-grandfather.

Anyway, Han Chao's grandfather took him when he was a child, and when it was time to burn paper, he led him to burn paper and set off firecrackers to kowtow, which was passed down from generation to generation.

The best-preserved ancestral tomb of Han Chao's family is of course the grave of Han Chao's grandfather, Han Kelu.

At any rate, there is a stone tablet engraved in front of his grave, and the mound is relatively high.

After all, this is Han Jiuhua's father, and he handled the matter. When Han Kelu passed away, Han Jiuhua's family situation was much better than before.

So he can spend more money on these things and make them look better.

In the end, the ancestral grave where the paper money was burned is long gone.

The Han surname of the Han Chao family has a set seniority table in terms of seniority.

Rongming Huayanyun, Fuyong Wanguangru; Shang Guangzhi Xixian, a scholar of Xiqing;

The inheritance of the sect can last for a long time, and the benevolence and generosity are always new;

Auspicious Kaihong Yuxiu, auspicious gathering Huaizhen; Ruizhao Tongzhimao, prosperity and prosperity.

Han Jiuhua is of the long-character generation, and Han Chao's name in the family tree is Han Renchao.

The last ancestral tomb is Jinzidai, which has a history of more than 200 years.

"The ancestor in this tomb is amazing. Don't look at it as a woman. According to the family tree, the two sons he gave birth to became county magistrates."

"Looking at the family tree, she has more written records as a woman than many men."

"Look at this ancestral grave after so many years, it is still so good. Fengshui here is good, surrounded by mountains and rivers, there are many red birds in the front, Xuanwu in the back, green dragon on the left, and white tiger on the right."

"So, her two sons have become officials."

Han Jiuhua spoke non-standard Hanjiaba Mandarin and said to Liu Qingyi and Han Chao with a smile.

Since Han Chao was very young, whenever he came to visit the grave, he would hear old Han chanting.

Hundreds of years have passed, didn't this ancestor just have two people who were nothing more than county magistrates?

Say it every year, don't you feel tired?

I don't even look at it, starting from my grandfather, and then to Lao Han, how poor they are.

This ancestor was once rich, what does it have to do with now?Isn't this typical feel good about yourself?

Liu Qingyi was very interesting to hear. She didn't know Suzaku Xuanwu, but this ancestral tomb covers a large area and the surrounding environment is better than other places.

It is not easy for a family to remember hundreds of years of history.

Like their Liu family, although there are many people now.But basically it was all thanks to his grandfather's hard work, and then he made a fortune, and then traced back to history, she really didn't know.

Chapter 203 Happy New Year's Eve Dinner (4000 words for subscription)

In front of the grave of this old female ancestor who left a strong mark on the family tree with the son of two generations of calligraphy, after burning the last paper money, a routine New Year's Eve event in Han Jiuhua's family was finally completed.

It was already lunch time when we returned to Han Dynasty's home, because the ancestral graves were far away and there were many ancestral graves.In addition, they all rely on walking. In fact, it is still a very time-consuming thing to burn paper money at the Hanjiaba grave.

Han Chao's lunch is very simple, and they are all home-cooked dishes.

Because the most important thing on New Year's Eve is the New Year's Eve dinner, so I just deal with it casually at noon.

Had it not been for Liu Qingyi's arrival on New Year's Eve, lunch would have been simpler.

After lunch, Han and North Korea took out the Spring Festival couplets sent by the bank and prepared to start posting the Spring Festival couplets.

Since he was in high school, he has been in charge of pasting Spring Festival couplets every year at home.

Hao Jinhua had already prepared the rice paste for pasting the Spring Festival couplets, although after the rice paste dries, it is difficult to stick to the wall.

But the house is not new enough and good enough, so what does it matter if it is buried a little bit?

The Spring Festival couplets are all printed in one color, with big black characters on the big red paper.

It's just that the XX Bank under the Spring Festival couplets are particularly touching.

To be honest, modern Spring Festival couplets don’t need to worry about the overall melody and rhythm. Look at the fish mouth at the bottom of the couplet, even for illiterate people.

These modern printed Spring Festival couplets usually have two carps at the bottom of the upper and lower couplets. As long as the mouths of the fish are facing each other, there is nothing wrong with it.

Anyway, if you distinguish from the literal meaning of the Spring Festival couplets or the flatness of the ending characters, sometimes you may not be able to distinguish clearly.

This can't be blamed for the low level of culturalization of posting Spring Festival couplets, but that the people who wrote the couplets didn't think about it.

In other words, they simply don't care about the level of the couplets.

Liu Qingyi helped to hold the Spring Festival couplets, while Han Chao took the stool and began to stick the Spring Festival couplets slowly.

After the red couplets and the door gods are pasted up, no matter how dilapidated the house is, it immediately feels that the festive atmosphere has become much stronger.

Han Chao's chicken coop is in the same place as the pigsty.

Although Hanjiaba is poor, there are still some people in the older generation who can write beautifully with a brush.

Han Jiuhua found a cousin of his family that day and asked for a couplet for the pigsty.

After all, the couplets in the pigsty cannot be bought ready-made.

The Spring Festival couplets in the pigsty are very simple. The first couplet: the five grains will be plentiful, and the second couplet: the six animals will prosper.

Liu Qingyi also found it very interesting to look at the little piglets in the pigsty.

She had eaten pork, but she had never seen a live pig at such a quiet distance.

Han Jiuhua is a mason. After Han Chao returned to Yucheng, he built a new bathroom in another part of the courtyard at home.

I heard that people in the city go to the bathroom, they are particular about going to the bathroom, and they like to be clean.

It took him about ten days to get a new set of bathroom utensils.Although it is not equipped with a modern toilet, the squat pit is still very clean.

It is to take a bath, shower these things water heaters are equipped.

Usually, they don't come here to go to the bathroom by themselves. This bathroom is only for the daughter-in-law to use when she comes back.

Therefore, the old Han and his wife really did a lot of preparations for the arrival of their daughter-in-law during the period after Han Chao left.
