There is a custom of "Shou Qi" in rural areas. From the day of death, the family members of the deceased will offer sacrifices every seven days until the 49th day, the seventh day, commonly known as "Broken Seven".The first seven things to do are also called worship dishes, and they are usually carried out at noon or afternoon.But the preparations must be done well in advance and not sloppy.

Today is Grandma Chen Yan's first seven days. The Chen family attaches great importance to it, so they started preparing yesterday.Chen Yan's family started to get busy early this morning. Of course, Tang Mo and Mr. Shangguan were not idle either, they were doing what they could.

The young masters of the two aristocratic families, Tang Mo and Shangguan Yun, were amazed by the things prepared, and the amount of things prepared made them dumbfounded.

I saw that the Chen family had prepared a set of three animals, pork, rooster, fish, and wine.

Twelve bowls were prepared, such as rice, rice noodles, spring and Qianxiang symbolize surplus, leeks symbolize eternity, bean Qian symbolizes being a high-ranking official, celery represents hard work, fish balls, and meatballs represent the number one scholar and being a member of parliament. Sliced ​​meat and cabbage are good luck, pig intestines give birth to boys, chicken wings are easy to make a living, etc.

As well as other fruits, red circles and hair cakes symbolize the reunion and prosperity of descendants. Miantou Mountain is also called descendant mountain or daughter mountain.

In fact, before Chen Yan got Pan Gu's heart, he also thought that the theory of ghosts and gods was pure nonsense, but now Chen Yan had to believe that such a thing did exist, and what happened to him was the best proof.

Many things can be proved, many things happen to people that cannot be explained.It's like when people go to see a patient, they find something beyond their imagination.Or go the wrong way and unknowingly go to a very unexpected place.It can also be called accidental luck or misfortune, but these are not all accidental.

"Fourth family, let me tell you! I have to vacate half of the house today." I heard Chen Yan's third aunt yelling and scolding early in the morning.

"What's the matter, this again?" Father Chen said angrily when he heard the scolding.What a day!It doesn't make people worry!Randomly, Father Chen rushed out of the house in a hurry.And Chen Yan was afraid that something would happen to his father, so he went out with Chen's father.

The four brothers of the Chen family live far away from the big house, while the other three brothers live very close to each other, only 200 meters apart.

"What are you yelling about so early in the morning! Do you even know what day it is!" Father Chen was very angry, knowing that the third son's daughter-in-law is not something to worry about.

"I don't care what day he is! You must give me the house today!" The third daughter-in-law was very confident.

When Chen Yan's grandparents were still alive, because the old couple endured hardships and stood hard work.Although he didn't leave much wealth to his children, he also used his own sweat to build some mud houses.

The four brothers of Chen's father also allocated houses to each of them after they got married and separated.The houses of the third and fourth children are connected together.

There is no partition wall between the houses of the third and fourth families, and they are connected in the middle. In fact, they are relatively large houses.But it's good to say half of one person.

But the daughter-in-law of the third child is competitive, so their house was the first to build a brick house.But since the two elders always lived with the youngest son, it was agreed that the remaining one-third would be given to the third son after the two elders lived a hundred years later.

At the beginning, there was nothing to do. When the new house was built, the other brothers all helped out, so the new house of the third family was built without spending much money.But then I didn't know what happened, and I started to have conflicts.Because Chen Yan was too young at the time, he couldn't remember many things clearly.

However, when the house of the third family was demolished and rebuilt, an area about the size of the door was left in the middle of the wall, which was just piled up with bricks, so that the old man could easily get back his land after a hundred years.And the door was sealed.The old couple and the fourth child can only use the small door to get in and out. In fact, such behavior has already been criticized by the villagers.But because the third child is soft-hearted, even if he felt guilty towards his mother, he didn't do anything to stop him, not even words of comfort.

It seems that after the eldest one became unable to support his parents, the third eldest’s family was fine at first, but it gradually changed since I don’t know when.In the end, because of a disagreement with his mother-in-law, she was chopped with a kitchen knife.The third daughter-in-law didn't dare to chop people up, but she went to the old man's room next door and hacked up the furniture.The old man was so frightened that he ran to a Taoist temple in the mountains more than ten kilometers away.

At that time, everyone else went to school and worked, and no one was at home.This is the news that everyone found out after they returned home and found the missing old mother after a few days of searching.

At that time, Chen's father rushed to the third child's house to beat someone, but fortunately he was stopped by other people. Since then, the brothers rarely see each other.It was also after that time that Chen Yan's grandma collapsed all of a sudden.

In rural areas, if there are many strong men in the family, most people will respect them a little.But it seems that the Feng Shui of the Chen family is not very good, one or two sons are so unfilial.Although he lives with his youngest son, it seems that since the youngest son's wife ran away with someone, his temper has become weird.From time to time, he would scold the old man, Chen Yan's grandfather was fine when he was alive.But after the old man passed away, Chen Yan's grandmother became sad.

But life got better from Chen Yan's house, and the old man was taken over again.It was not easy for Chen Yan to use his ability to make the old man recover, and he went away unexpectedly after not enjoying a few days of happiness.

The villagers living nearby were also attracted by the loud voice of the third daughter-in-law, so there were few recreational activities in the countryside.Such a move can increase the amount of conversation among the villagers after dinner.

"Hmph! This house was originally mine! Why can't I take it back? I said second child, what does it matter to you?" The third daughter-in-law seemed to be even more excited when she saw more and more villagers gathered nearby.

"Why is it none of my business? You made a big fuss in my mother's first seven days, are you still human? Are you so anxious? Can't even wait a month or two?" Father Chen was furious, this woman is too worthless.

"This is your mother, not my mother!"

"You! Good! You are capable! Chen Xijin! Come out, you bastard! You don't care about your mother-in-law!? Listen! Listen! This is the daughter-in-law you were clamoring to marry back then. Let’s make such a fuss at the stall where our mother’s bones are still cold, why don’t you even fart. Are you still human!?”

The third child whose name was reversed by his second brother finally walked out of the house slowly and walked to his wife. "Don't be like this, today is my mother's first seven days"

"You wretch! Is it wrong for me to fight for the house? My mother~ why am I so miserable! Everyone in this family is going to bully me! The house has been taken by someone, so there is no way to justify it~" The third child When the daughter-in-law saw her man talking about her like that, she sat down on the ground and started crying.

That expression was called a grievance. If Chen Yan didn't know the inside story, he would have shed tears of sympathy for the other party.Chen Yan and even the village name of Shehe Village knew the specific situation.So while the third daughter-in-law was spitting, the surrounding village names were whispering, and they also started pointing at the people on the ground.

"Get up!" Chen Xijin wanted to pull the person sitting on the ground after finishing speaking.After all, he is the son of an old man. Although his temper is a bit soft, it doesn't mean he is unfilial.Usually, when the daughter-in-law is not paying attention, she will give the old man 51 yuan, not to mention that clay figurines have three temperaments.Chen Xijin would lose face if his mother-in-law made such a fuss.In fact, don't talk about face, the lining is gone!

When the people on the ground saw that they wanted to pull themselves, they said, "Let go of me! If you pull me, I will divorce you! Try pulling me!"

When Chen Xijin was told this, he reflexively let go.I thought to myself, anyway, if I really get the house, it won't do me any harm.Otherwise, my mother-in-law will divorce me!mom!You should understand.

Just facing the disappointed eyes of my elder brother and younger brother looking at me, I lowered my head lower and lower, "Brother..."

"Chen Xijin! You are doing well! Let me tell you, from now on I don't have a younger brother like you. The Chen family doesn't have you either, that's fine! You want a house, right? Okay, but if you want to take the house, you have to take your mother Bring me the funeral expenses!" The old man's funeral expenses, because Chen Xi even thought of his brother's life is not easy, so he didn't want them to ask for it.Anyway, I have money, so I handle it all by myself.Since the other party is unkind, don't blame yourself for being unrighteous.

The third daughter-in-law who was sitting on the ground quit when she heard that she wanted to ask herself to pay for the funeral bill!Immediately stood up from the ground. "Didn't you say the funeral expenses yourself? Did you pay for it? Why do you want to take it again? Anyway, you said, I won't take it. If you have the ability, let the one on the road take it too!"

"Don't worry, I'll pay other people's money for them. I'll take it from you. Are you in control? I'll put it here. If you want a house today, then share the funeral expenses with me." !” Father Chen said.He just pays for others, he wants the person in front of him to pay.If you like it, can the other party take care of it?

"Dad! Don't be angry with this kind of person. It's not worth it! Let me do it! Take a break first!" Chen Yan said afraid that his father might be angry.
