Traveling to the Earth: My martial spirit is a hoe

Hearing the child's cry, Luo Qiong calmed down. Just now he was just happy, but now he made his little nephew cry.

He quickly put Luo Min down.

Luo Min was a little dizzy from the impact. After being put down, her body swayed and she almost fell. Fortunately, Luo Qiong reacted quickly enough and hurriedly supported her.

"You have grown so big for nothing, but your brain has not grown at all. You are still so frivolous in doing things."

Luo Min rolled his eyes at her, quickly untied the rope in front of him, took the baby into his arms and started coaxing her.

Luo Qiong stood aside and watched awkwardly.

Xie Jin on the other side watched the two brothers and sisters fooling around, with a naive smile on his face.

This Xie Jin is from Xiejiazhuang, the village next door, which is separated by a mountain from their village. Xie Jin is also a rural child. His family is not wealthy, and his parents are also farmers for their ancestors.

He is very honest, and they met when they were working outside. Later, after being introduced by a matchmaker, they liked each other and got married.

Although the family did not have much money, Xie Jin was very kind to Luo Min. Now that he had a son, the family of three lived in poverty, but they were also very happy.

He loved his wife Xie Jin very much. When he found out that his brother-in-law was ill, he took out all his family's savings without saying a word and borrowed a lot from relatives and friends.

In the past two years, he did not ask Luo Ping'an for payment. Instead, he silently memorized the accounts and worked with his wife to pay back the money.

At this moment, he was very happy to see his wife and brother having trouble.

And this time I heard that my brother-in-law actually got the top score in the exam, Xie Jin was also sincerely happy for him.

"Brother-in-law, let me get it for you!"

Luo Qiong was glared at by her sister and felt a little guilty. She immediately ran to Xie Jin and took the two gift boxes from his hands.

"It's okay, it's not serious."

Although Xie Jin declined, he still handed the thing in his hand to Luo Qiong. After all, it was originally intended for his father-in-law.

Luo Qiong took the gift box and led them home.

"You are here!"

"Yes, your sister said that we have plenty of time today, so it would be nice to save a little bit."

Luo Qiong has been to her brother-in-law's house. Although it is only separated by a mountain from their village, this is a mountainous area. If you want to go to your brother-in-law's house, you have to go around a long way. It takes almost four or five hours just to walk.

"It seems like my sister hasn't had a very good life these past two years!"

Nowadays, the transportation is convenient, and a taxi only costs a few dozen yuan. Luo Qiong secretly thought that her sister could walk four or five hours for a few dozen yuan, so her family must not be rich.

After a few people entered the door, Luo Min looked at the brand-new courtyard and the hollowed-out courtyard wall, and a smile appeared on Luo Min's face.

When I called my parents a few days ago, I heard that they are now selling vegetables and making a lot of money. Their yard has been renovated and their life is much better than before.

Seeing how prosperous the family was at this moment, Luo Min felt relieved.

The reason why he got married early back then was because he didn't want to be a burden to his family. Now that his family is well off, he has fulfilled his wish.

As soon as they walked into the yard, they saw a lot of acquaintances in the yard. This was the place where Luo Min grew up. The people in the yard were either elders who had watched her grow up, or friends who had grown up with him.

Of course, it is inevitable to have some intimacy when meeting relatives.

Luo Min was obviously in a high mood when she returned home. She hugged her child and greeted everyone cordially.

When He Fanghua and Luo Ping'an heard the commotion outside, they both came out one after another. When they saw their daughter coming back, they didn't care about what they were doing and went straight to greet them. After a while of greetings, they took the child from Luo Min's hand. .

I amused my grandson happily.

Time passed quickly, and it was noon in a blink of an eye.

At this time, the food is almost ready. As long as the order is given to start the meal, a table will be filled with delicious food in less than ten minutes.

But now there is obviously a more important thing, which is to open an ancestral hall to worship ancestors.

At this time, the Eight Immortals table in the courtyard was filled with various sacrificial supplies. The sons of the Luo family also stood aside respectfully, waiting for the arrangements of the clan elders.

"Dong Dong Dong"

With the sound of three drums, the door of Luo Qiong's house was opened.

Two people holding a plaque wrapped in red cloth walked out, and behind them, Luo Qiong, who was wearing a robe and with a big red flower hanging on his chest, also walked out.

"Open the ancestral hall"

Following a loud shout, intensive gongs and drums sounded, and at the same time, the two salute guns placed at the entrance of the courtyard were lit.

"bang bang bang"

Accompanied by drums and drums, Banbian and Luo Qiong slowly walked out of the yard and began to walk towards the ancestral hall, while the people behind them consciously followed Banbian according to their seniority.

Everyone would be holding the sacrifices prepared by their family, and soon, a long queue was slowly walking along the road to the Luo family ancestral hall.

Accompanied by the deafening sound of drums and crackling firecrackers, the group finally arrived at the entrance of the ancestral hall.

This Luo family ancestral hall was built after the first generation brothers of the Luo family moved here. It not only worships the ancestors of their Luo family, but also contains their family's genealogy that has lasted for hundreds of years.

Every year, except when it is opened during the Chinese New Year and family tree worship, it is closed at other times. Only a few clan elders clean it regularly.

But today, the ancestral hall, which had been closed for half a year, opened its doors again.

The sacrificial team followed the plaque into the ancestral hall, and then performed three bows and nine kowtows under the command of the clan elder. Everyone presented the sacrifices one by one, and then stood underneath.

Luo Qiong was called out alone at this time.

The third uncle took out a memorial essay that he had already written:

It is the third day of the sixth lunar month in the year 2023 AD.

The main sacrifice was made by Luo Ping'an, the grandson of the descendant, and Luo Qiong, the great-grandson of the descendant, and others were offered sacrifices in front of the grand ancestor of the Luo family, Kaoluo Gong, the grand ancestor of the grand ancestor of the Luo family, and the spirit of all the ancestors of the past dynasties, saying:

Tracing back to its roots, it has a long history. After a hundred years, there are 7 branches; men, women, old and young gather together tombs of their ancestors; the memory of our ancestors never stops.

I am very happy today, especially for my ancestors. Luo had a son named Luo Qiong. He ranked first in high school in the country's major exams and was awarded the title of Number One Scholar.

Ancestors’ virtues and merits benefit their descendants.

I sincerely follow the teachings, drink water and remember the source; be mindful and virtuous, prepare wine and food: strong mane and soft hair, fragrant silk and treasure. There are plain rice dishes, fruits and pastries; golden chopsticks and jade chopsticks, the feast is full.

The red candles are brilliant, the firecrackers are noisy; the Zen light is shining, and the sky is full of auspiciousness. The illustrious ancestors, please ascend to the hall; be humble and solemn, and take your seats in order. Respectfully awaiting ancestors, please drink and taste.

Bless the Miao descendants and make them prosperous from generation to generation; the roots are deep and the leaves are luxuriant, and the melons are endless. Children and grandchildren, generations of heroes. Officials, farmers, and industrialists are like dragons and phoenixes; they are pioneering and enterprising, and they work hard to become stronger.

Carry forward the entrepreneurial spirit; brothers and sisters are related by blood. Follow the instructions of the ancestors, peace and auspiciousness; abundant harvests, and prosperity of all industries. Inheriting the past and linking up with the future, our reputation will last through the ages!

The memorial text was so eloquent that Luo Qiong felt sleepy while reading it.

After the clan elder finished reading the last sentence, he ordered someone to hang the plaque of the number one scholar in the main hall. Then the clan elder wrote the genealogy and personally wrote down the number one scholar in the last year and month under Luo Qiong's name.

The entire ancestor worship ceremony is completed.
