There is a local saying that "eat in Lingnan and cook in Zen City", and it also enjoys the title of "World Culinary Capital" awarded by the United Nations.

It is the hometown of famous chefs and the birthplace of Cantonese cuisine.

The locals pay the most attention to the original flavor when cooking, taste the original delicacy of the ingredients, and tirelessly pursue the ultimate taste.

From a small portion of double-skinned milk, to a thin, translucent fish, and finally to a whole steamed pig, they are all delicacies that have been refined over several years.

Many people who have been away from home for many years miss this taste of their childhood the most.

Just talking about it makes me want to swallow my saliva.

Today, cars were parked outside the Lu family's ancestral hall, and many citizens came to watch and watch the excitement after hearing the news.

The local media also sent reporters to follow up and report.

But they were all stopped outside the central gate.

The inner court.

Although there were many people in the ancestral hall, they were not noisy at all. Instead, they seemed quiet and solemn.

This is a very solemn scene.

There are many ancestor tablets enshrined inside.

As the clan leader, Mr. Lu stood at the front, holding a yellowed scroll in his hand and wondering what he was reading.

Others are arranged in an orderly manner according to seniority and branch.

Because there were so many people, even the porch and the yard outside were full of people.

Jiang Ruyi stared at the towering ancient tree in the courtyard of the ancestral hall, inexplicably feeling that it looked like a big family like the Lu family.

From a small sapling, it continued to take root and sprout, and after more than two hundred years, it grew into a towering tree with lush branches and leaves that dominates the airspace.

A tedious ancestor worship process was over, and everyone had been standing there for almost an hour.

There are children with weak bones who have already started to swing their legs and cry uncontrollably.

But when the adults whispered comfort or warning, they kept it up with their mouths pursed.

The people behind could not hear what was being said in front of them at all. They just followed the crowd and kept bowing.

Lu Beicheng saw that everyone was tired. The children couldn't help but want to go out and have fun. He thought it might be difficult to organize a group photo after the memorial banquet.

So we quickly arranged for people to guide everyone to the central hall to take a group photo first.

Many people who came from different places and had just met each other, who had not introduced themselves to each other and did not know each other, just stood next to each other and took a group photo.

After the photographer said "OK", everyone smiled and got to know each other, and walked out together.

Because they share the same ancestor, after announcing their family status in a few sentences, even if they are meeting people for the first time, they seem to be able to find a sense of familiarity and identity in their bones.

This is probably the power of blood and the cohesion of the family.

Children can also find new playmates in twos and threes.

The sounds of play after relaxation can be heard from far away, adding a bit of liveliness to this winter day as the New Year is approaching.

In fact, every ancestor worship is not only a time to worship ancestors, but also a time for clan members to communicate with each other and connect with each other.

This relationship includes adults' and of course the friendships established by children since childhood.

After this whole day of socializing and a very complicated process of ancestor worship, both Lu Beicheng and Jiang Ruyi were tortured.

night.

After the couple finished washing, they both fell on the bed.

It's rare that I don't even have the energy for a goodnight kiss.

Jiang Ruyi shared her insights with Lu Beicheng during the day.

Lu Beicheng pondered for a few seconds. He didn't know what he thought of, and couldn't help but sigh, "The big tree has deep roots and lush leaves, which can indeed provide more shelter to the people under the tree."

“But big trees attract wind, and sometimes that’s not necessarily a good thing.”

"The tree wants to be quiet but the wind is not stopping. Let's not talk about the challenges from the outside. Once a big tree starts to decay from the inside, it will be very difficult to restore it."

"Often a single move affects the whole body. When it reaches a certain critical point, it can directly destroy the entire tree."

It was only recently that Lu Beicheng slowly got a glimpse of the internal movements of the Fu family through his own channels.

no way!

The blood relationship between Jiang Ruyi and the Fu family cannot be broken, in order not to affect Ruyi if this relationship comes out in the future.

Lu Beicheng must keep track of the Fu family's dynamics.

After finding out, it was discovered that Fu Shaozhong was really making a deep cut with the Fu family.

Oh, no, strictly speaking, he was cutting off the rotten part of the Fu family.

He wants to cut off his tail to survive.

Take the initiative to detonate the mine buried inside the Fu family.

If you shake off the tail, it won't get rid of it, and it may even start to devour the master's side branches of the Fu family.

Find a new way out for the Fu family.

If it works, the Fu family can keep its most elite force.

If they lose, the Fu family will be pulled down from the altar, but at least Fu Shaozhong can escape unscathed.

This is probably the best solution that Fu Guoxing and Fu Shaozhong came up with.

After all, neither father nor son believed in the catastrophic disasters committed by the branch, and there was no temptation or trap by their competitors at all.

At this time, Lu Beicheng admired Fu Shaozhong for being able to make such a straightforward and decisive decision.

The strength, tenacity and cruelty in that man's bones are evident.

\"Brother Cheng, what are you thinking about?" Jiang Ru noticed that the man was dazed again and asked curiously.

Lu Beicheng came to his senses and said, "It's nothing, I'm just a little tired today."

"Oh, then I won't bother you anymore. You can go to sleep." Jiang Ruyi thoughtfully pulled the quilt and covered Lu Beicheng.

Chief Lu Beicheng stretched out his arms and pulled Jiang Ruyi into his arms, "Well, you are tired today too, let's sleep together."

in the dark.

Jiang Ruyi's even breathing came out.

Lu Beicheng was so tired that he no longer felt sleepy.

He turned his head to look at the little face that was glowing white in the night, feeling pity in his heart.

Whether it's the Lu family or the Fu family in the capital, they seem to be in bloom, with bells ringing and food being eaten.

But it is not as calm and peaceful as it seems on the surface.

Under the calm sea, there are always undercurrents, and big fish eat small fish...

He didn't know that he had forcefully dragged the innocent Ruyi into such a world...

is true? Is it wrong?

With a slight sigh, Lu Beicheng gently stroked Jiang Ruyi's delicate face, "Don't worry, I will definitely protect you and keep you safe throughout your life."

In his entire life, Lu Beicheng had never been afraid of anyone.

Life is like clearing mines one after another.

It was too smooth sailing, but a little boring.

Lu Beicheng never regretted keeping Jiang Ruyi by his side, he only regretted why he didn't find her earlier.

In this way, the two of them can leave more beautiful memories.

……

Fortunately, this large-scale ancestor worship event lasts only one day.

The next day, many ancestors still had their graves preserved locally, and they brought their families to visit the graves.

Starting from the third day, some tribesmen left one after another.

But it is rare to come back once, and many Lu clan members choose to spend the New Year in Chancheng before leaving.

Because of Lu Yunzhang, Lu Beicheng's family will also stay in Chancheng to celebrate the New Year this year.

After the three babies entered the family tree, they all received a family trust fund.

Because they are all descendants of the Lu family, the amount is quite large.

Even Jiang Ruyi, the mother, was not left behind and became a direct beneficiary of the family trust fund.

This represents the clan's recognition of her and encourages her to have more children.
