Lan Ke Qi Yuan: Extra: The Unbroken Past 4

After quietly washing his underwear, Sun Yiqiu tidied himself up after putting it on, and then came to the kitchen. His parents had all gotten up, even his elderly grandfather and grandmother were there.

Seeing her grandson coming out, grandma smiled and brought over a bowl of white porridge with pickles, marinated meat and a piece of fermented bean curd piled on top.

"Eat quickly."

"Yeah."

Sun Yiqiu took the bowl and chopsticks and started to cook the porridge. The others looked at him and didn't say much. They kept busy. Steam was rolling over the stove. Something was cooking in the pot. There was already something on the kitchen table. A lot of dishes were laid out.

"Eat quickly, help after eating, and stay in bed with dignity."

When the father complained, the grandmother next to him spoke for his grandson.

"Okay, boss, it's a bright day today. It's not like we can't do it. The hill is still small. Let him sleep more."

"You're still young? You're still thinking about women."

"Pfft...cough cough cough cough..."

Sun Yiqiu, who was sucking the white porridge, choked after hearing his father's words. He kept coughing, his face was extremely embarrassed, and he kept thinking wildly.

"Look at your appearance, that kid Dongdong is also very popular. It's good to join my family. Eat quickly and help after eating. Your aunt, your sister and their family will all come today."

"Hey, cough."

Sun Yiqiu quickly calmed down, then speeded up his eating, and then helped together.

The lid of the stove pot was opened, and a large amount of steam came out. Inside was a big goose cooking. The Sun family put the big goose on a large tray, then inserted a few chopsticks into the goose, and then wrapped the goose intestines around the chopsticks. superior.

As chicken, duck, fish, fruits and vegetables such as white meat and goose are put on the table, the preparations are almost complete.

At the end of the year, the Sun family is preparing for the big sacrifice at the end of the year. Most families worship gods and ancestors separately, but the Sun family is obviously different.

It started to get light, and the Sun family cleared out the living room of the house, placed all the chairs and stools beside it, and then placed the tributes on the Eight Immortals table one by one.

Sun Yiqiu's two aunts and his sister, who got married the year before, also arrived shortly after dawn. They arrived almost together. One aunt came with her grandson, another aunt came with her wife, and my sister came with her in her arms. The children also came with their husbands.

"Brother! It's Chinese New Year!"

"Brother! By the way, call me uncle!" "Uncle!"

"Brother..."

"Father-in-law, mother-in-law! Hello grandpa and grandma!"

"Sister, brother-in-law. Oh, the little jelly beans are here too!"

"It's all good, all good, hahahaha..."

The family greets each other, making the Sun family compound very lively. However, everyone is back to participate in the sacrifice, so naturally they cannot forget about business.

After the excitement, the offering table was set up. In addition to the tributes, the incense table and red candles were naturally indispensable, but the most special thing was a few tablets.

Sun Yiqiu's grandfather personally "invited" them out and placed them at the end of the table.

Other families offer sacrifices to gods, Buddhas and ancestors separately, and generally do not have tablets. They just call a few times and pray, but the Sun family has three plaques in total.

In the middle of a dark brown plaque is written the word "Heaven and Earth" in clear handwriting. The plaque on the left reads "Ancestors of the Sun family" and the plaque on the right reads "Grandma Xian Guzu".

But this is not the end yet. Sun Yiqiu's father slowly pushed the cabinet cart he usually used for selling stalls to the door. Then Mr. Sun walked to the cart in person, carefully squatted down, and took a small piece of wood from the money jar. Then he took down the "please" sign, walked slowly to the altar table, and hung the small wooden sign in the middle of the "Heaven and Earth" tablets.

"Okay, let's start!"

Whether it was sincere or pretending, the Sun family immediately became serious. Even the children who were laughing and joking before were scolded not to be arrogant. The Sun family came first according to seniority, and the surname was a step behind.

The red candle was lit, and Mr. Sun held three lit incense sticks and faced the altar seriously.

"The New Year is approaching, and the Sun family of Ning'an County will offer sacrifices here. I hope that the gods and Buddhas of heaven and earth will protect my Sun family's descendants, that my ancestors will bless me, and that my great aunt and grandma will bless me!"

With that said, the Sun family members bowed down together, and Old Man Sun put the incense on the incense burner.

"Okay, come up and worship one by one! Remember, be sincere!"

Under the old man's instructions, the Sun family members stepped forward one by one and began to worship. Of course, the baby still had to be held by an adult.

Although this kind of annual event is grand, it is done by the family members. The Sun family is naturally more relaxed. Among young people, it is not so much about how serious it is, but rather about respecting the traditions of their elders. Maybe wait. They will change their views when they get older, but they are really not very sincere now.

"Grandma, why is it different from what our family does?"

The child who came with Sun Yiqiu's second aunt was only five years old. This was the second time he came to offer sacrifices, but the first time was when he was two years old. He had long forgotten about it. Grandma hadn't spoken yet. Old man Sun was already explaining with a smile.

"Haha, Xiao Caitou, even though our Sun family doesn't seem to have any great dignitaries, our ancestors are also prominent. Just say that this plaque is not your uncle's, but there are not many in the world. And our fairy aunt grandma..."

"Grandpa is telling old stories again, and my ears have been filled with noise since I was little."

Sun Yiqiu and his sister and husband were laughing and talking behind them, and the grandfather over there had also finished his "science popularization", but the little Caitou kid had obviously heard about something and hurriedly asked.

"Uncle, is there really a fairy aunt? Grandma said that the fairy aunt is a person in heaven. Is she more powerful than some big gentlemen? I heard that in some big cities there are gentlemen with university education who can go to heaven. Entering the ground! ”

"Well, this one must be better than them!"

Old man Sun felt somewhat guilty when he said this. How could he not have heard of some great scholars in Ning'an County? Many people knew some of the great scholars, but most of them heard and heard, Grandma Xiangu I have only heard about it since I was a child, never seen it, and not many of it can be passed down.

"Oh, by the way, this tablet is the proof! This heaven and earth tablet and this small tablet were given by Grandma Xiangu herself in the clouds to our old house of the Sun family. They should be remembered by the descendants of the Sun family forever. ."

"I know this. The braised noodles here are delicious, but you have to leave an ingredient every time you go to the stall. Don't sell out! Uncle, I want to eat braised noodles later!"

"Okay, okay, let's eat braised noodles later! My uncle is cooking today!"

Why keep a copy? The Sun family has actually forgotten it. It may be because the ancestors meant that there will always be more than enough every year. Anyway, they did not break this default ancestral precept.

"Yiqiu, it's your turn, stop joking, go up and pay homage."

My father called Sun Yiqiu, and the latter put aside his laughter with his sister and brother-in-law, made a serious look, went to the altar table to worship, and muttered some words of prayer for good health.

The entire sacrificial process was uneventful. Just like ordinary people, after the sacrificial ceremony, the table was cleared, some edible dishes were placed, some dishes were heated, and some new foods were prepared, such as braised noodles.

At noon, the family sat around the table with a round table to eat. The older ones had a drink, the younger ones were playing non-stop, and the baby was crying for milk in the middle of the meal. It was very lively.

But the whole family didn't notice that there was actually one more person in the house, a woman wearing light blue clothes. She had green silk and a bun, but she had sideburns as long as willows in front, and a three-foot-long draped hair on the back like water, with a white jade stick on top of her head. The hairpin is decorated with a faintly shining bead.

The woman just watched the Sun family eating happily. She walked a few steps around the table and stopped next to Sun Yiqiu. She held her elbow with one hand and held her chin with the other, carefully observing Sun Yiqiu on the field. The strongest rice cook, the red flower bowl in his hand was filled with a large bowl of rice, which was quickly disappearing together with the various dishes put into the bowl.

Not like Yaya at all!

Seeing the Sun family eating happily, Zao Niang bit her finger, turned around and walked out of the lobby. When she went out, she already had a sauced duck leg in her hand.

"Just try it!"

After whispering, Zao Niang waved her sleeves to the ground and the dust near the threshold dispersed. She sat down casually, stretched one leg and bent one leg, and tasted the sauced duck leg there.

Although Youdao was killed for being a gentleman for five generations, the rules of the Sun family noodle stall have been observed for so many generations. Even if Sun Yaya doesn't care, Zao Niang, who has been guarding Ning'an County most of the time, won't care either.

"What if the old man wants to come back to eat noodles one day and can't find anyone?"

Thinking about this, Zao Niang glanced outside the door again. There were already two people standing there holding knives with serious faces. Judging from their clothes, they must be the day wandering gods of Ning'an County.

"You are not a human being, what are you doing here?"

"But what is the connection with the Sun family?"

"If there is no connection, I hope you will leave immediately!"

The two Japanese cruisers did not attack immediately. After all, the other party just stole a duck leg from the Sun family, and the aura of the other party was neither a god, nor a Buddha, nor an immortal, nor a demon, nor a ghost, so they should not act rashly.

Zao Niang stood up and bowed.

"Hello, you two, I am also from Ning'an County. I know the ancestors of the Sun family. Today I suddenly felt that this family was contaminated by something. I came here to have a look. I have never done anything trespassing, and I will not harm them. , please be careful."

Two Days Tour subconsciously glanced at the half-eaten duck leg, nodded slightly, and made some relaxed gestures even though his hand was still on the knife. There was an inexplicable aura about this woman that made people want to believe it. Even ghosts and gods are no exception, it is very magical.

"Do you know what it was contaminated with?"

"Then I don't know yet. Looking for Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com doesn't seem to have harmed the Sun family, so I plan to wait here. If it is a misunderstanding, just let it go. If you don't know what to do, , let it be destroyed in spirit and form."

Zao Niang’s tone was very calm, but her words were a bit harsh. Both of them had some synesthesia, and could sense that these were not bragging exaggerations, or even self-confidence in oneself, but just something that was taken for granted. Just ordinary words.

The more this feeling, the more unusual it is. The woman in front of me is probably very extraordinary.

The Japanese parade showed some respect. One of them deliberately bowed and made a gesture before asking again.

"May I ask this fairy's name and where he comes from?"

Zao Niang smiled. It seemed that the other party didn't believe that she was from Ning'an County. With a bit of solemnity, she put the duck legs into the space inside her sleeves, stood up straight and threw her sleeves behind her, with her hair on both sides blowing slightly in the wind.

“Born and raised in Ning’an County, Zao Niang!”

A gentle breeze blew in the county. At the end of the twelfth lunar month, there seemed to be a vague and faint fragrance of flowers floating in the county.
