On the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, decals for cakes and steamed buns

On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, go to the grave and ask your ancestors to make a big offering.
……

After this day's busy work, it will be the 29th of the twelfth lunar month in a blink of an eye.

The day before New Year's Eve is also called "Little New Year's Eve" among the people, and ancestors are usually worshiped on the day of Little New Year's Eve!

The so-called ancestral worship activities for those big families, naturally pay attention to production scheduling, but for ordinary people, it is just to honor some big white rice, chicken and duck that are not available on weekdays in front of the ancestral tablet on this day. Fish or something!

Zhao Frame and the Zhao brothers and sisters have never met their parents, and they never know where their ancestral tablets belong!
Life was difficult before, but I didn't think about it!In the event of ancestor worship activities such as Qingming Festival, it is also symbolic to burn some paper money in the yard and let it go.

This year is different, Zhao Hua specially ordered a pair of archways from Carpenter Wang in the village!The names of the deceased parents of the Zhao brothers and sisters were written on it respectively.

As the only descendant of the Zhao family, Zhao Frame decided to enshrine the tablet of his parents after discussing with the Zhao family.

The ancient people's respect for their ancestors has a long history, and this kind of respect is also an eternal belief for them.

After the family situation improved slightly, Zhao frame also began to pay attention to these things.

Not to mention whether it is really out of filial piety, even if it is aimed at the blessings and wealth of the future generations, and also needs the blessing of the ancestors of the Zhao family, I dare not neglect the respect of the ancestors.

As the saying goes, if you believe it, there will be, if you don't believe it, there will be nothing!
When people have nothing, they have no fear of ancestors, ghosts and gods. On the contrary, after they have wealth and fame, they are afraid of losing it, so they start to fear the gods!While fearing, I also hope that the gods will bless me with more wealth and fame. This may also be caused by human greed!
Zhao frame lives in the secular world, so he is also a layman!Of course, he will not lack any blessings that others ask for, and naturally, he will not lack any of the filial piety that his ancestors can do.

No, in order to show his filial piety, Zhao Fang and his sister also discussed it. On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, they invited monks who practiced rituals to come to their home to perform a ritual ceremony for their parents, and then placed the memorial tablets of their parents Going up to the altar, this can be regarded as making up for the neglect of his parents all these years.

Si Ya didn't think of her uncle and mother's thoughts and actions as feudal superstition.For those who travel through time, what else is unbelievable!

So when the monks practiced rituals for their grandma and grandfather, Si Ya also sincerely knelt down with the family and prayed for blessings.

Under the watchful eyes of a circle of villagers, the tablets of Zhao's family and Zhao Frame's parents were finally placed in the middle of the Zhao family's main hall.

After the ceremony was over and the monks were sent away with a lot of money, the Zhao family could breathe a sigh of relief.

Both Zhao Huan and Mrs. Zhao were very excited to come today, especially after Zhao Huan had a few drinks, he spoke the truth from his heart with his sons and daughters and Da Ya's sisters.

"Peace of mind", this is how Si Ya summed up what she said to her uncle.Listening to his uncle's words, Si Ya also knew that every time he saw someone offering sacrifices to his ancestors these years, he also felt fear in his heart.

Hearing her brother's words, Mrs. Zhao also sighed in her heart.

For wealth, fame and fortune, Zhao Shi didn't really care about it, all she wanted was for her family to be healthy and free from illness!

In the evening, it was rare for Xiao Baohua to come over.

For Xiao Baohua's arrival, the Zhao family was also very surprised!

"Sister Siya! Mother asked me to report to you while the family was busy worshiping ancestors!" Xiao Baohua panted to her sister Siya as soon as she entered the room.

Seeing that the child's feet were still covered with snow, Siya was very moved. Although the snow hadn't melted, it was not easy for a little girl to walk all the way to her house in this snow.

"Sister Siya! I have to tell you quickly, if grandma finds out that I'm not peeling garlic in the room later, she will pick my ears again!" At this point, Xiao Baohua smiled embarrassedly and turned away. pouted.

Seeing Xiao Baohua say the words so easily, the Siya sisters also understand. After all, what Xiaobaohua has experienced before, the Daya sisters have also experienced.

But because of this, Da Ya and the others felt more sympathy for Xiao Baohua.

"Sister Siya! My mother told me to tell you! My sister's wedding day is set on the eighteenth day of the first lunar month. Because of the dowry gift from the Zhu family, my grandma got into a fight with the Zhu family! If it weren't for the fact that Zhu's third son really likes my sister, this marriage will specify No way! Mother also said that she really can't leave, so she can only help with these!" After drinking the sweet honey water handed over by her sister Siya, Xiao Baohua took her mother's words to heart. A paraphrase.

"Go and tell your mother! Let her rest assured, we all understand her painstaking efforts!" Sister Da Ya sympathized with Xiao Baohua, and Mrs. Zhao naturally sympathized with Mrs. Zhou, so she said!

In fact, at this time, Mrs. Zhou still managed to get Xiao Baohua to pass on the news, which already moved Mrs. Zhao very much.

"En!" Hearing what Zhao said, Xiao Baohua also nodded, and gulped down the sweet honey water in her hand.

After seeing Xiao Baohua drink the honey water, she even licked her lips!Si Ya also poured out a small jar of honey from home and brought it to Xiao Baohua.

Seeing so much honey, Xiao Baohua hopped back.

After watching Xiao Baohua leave, Mrs. Zhao also sighed and returned to the house with a few daughters.

"Hey! It's really embarrassing for Baohuaniang and Baohua! In such a situation, they still think of sending us a letter!" As soon as they sat down, Zhao sighed.

"Yeah! I think Baohua has lost a lot of weight recently!" the careful big girl said with sympathy.

After hearing what the big girl said, the other girls also showed sympathy.

In the end, I can only sympathize in my heart, just like my sister-in-law Cuigu's marriage, I can only worry in my heart, but I can't do anything.

However, Cui Gu did not marry a few years ago, which made Mrs. Zhao and the girls feel relieved for a while!
People are like this, before things are a foregone conclusion, they always feel that there is still a glimmer of hope, and they still hold a glimmer of hope in their hearts, even if they know that this matter is as hard to move as a rock.

"Mother! I'll go to Xiucai's aunt's house!" Si Ya thought of Liang Xiucai's cold back on that day of heavy snow, so she thought about it and said to her mother.

"Go! This news is good or bad for their mother and son! But since we know, we must tell you!" Mrs. Zhao knew what Si Ya was going to do, so her expression Said with a somewhat complicated sigh.

At this time, no one from the big yas proposed to go with Siya, after all, what was said in the past was not good news, so you can avoid it!

Si Ya, who was out of the house, was actually feeling uncomfortable. This news was hope for Liang Xiucai, but it was also torture.

When Siya arrived at Liang's house, she saw that the scent of sandalwood in Liang's house hadn't dissipated, and there were still steaming sumptuous dishes served on the tablet of the ancestors of Liang's family!I think the mother and son of the Liang family have just finished worshiping their ancestors!
"Siya, you're here!" Liang Xiucai heard footsteps, so he went out of the room to have a look, seeing that it was Siya, he also greeted with a smile.

"Where is Aunt Xiucai! Why haven't I seen her!" Si Ya also asked with a smile.

"Mother went to Cao'er's house, and she said she was going to give her a pair of shoes!" Hearing Siya's question, Liang Xiucai replied naturally.

"Oh!" Si Ya was thinking about how to speak about that matter, and she replied absent-mindedly after hearing what Liang Xiucai said.

Liang Xiucai saw that Siya was clearly worried, so he invited her to sit down in his room.

"Speak! What do you want to tell me!" Liang Xiucai said as soon as he sat down.

The Da Ya sisters, the Wu family brothers, Zhao Daniu, Li Chen and others also came to talk to Liang Xiucai from time to time these days, and what they said was more or less comforting.

That's why Liang Xiucai also thought that Si Ya wanted to comfort him, so he took the initiative to speak.

"That... that... sister...!" Seeing Liang Xiucai looking at her with a clear look, Si Ya started to stutter.

"Siya, don't talk about it! I know your kindness! Don't worry! I won't be devastated because of this incident!" Although his heart was still tied like a rope and in pain, Liang Xiucai Still interrupting Si Ya with a smile, and then promised to say with the belly draft that had already been typed.

Naturally, Liang Xiucai's move was not perfunctory. He really wanted to be good and stop the pain, but he couldn't help it!
Liang Xiucai himself can't break free from this rope, but he doesn't want others to see the rope in his heart, so he wants to hide it, so he needs to smile to reassure those who care about him.

"No! Sister, she's not married yet!" If she hadn't seen Liang Xiucai's appearance in the snow that day, Siya might still believe this smile, but at this moment she really can't see Liang Xiucai's smiling appearance. It's really more uncomfortable than crying.

Hearing Si Ya's words, Liang Xiucai obviously didn't want to come here for a while, and saw that he had already removed the smile on his face, only lowered his head in silence, and then whispered "Oh", which was regarded as a response to Si Ya's words Bar!

"Just now Baohua came over and said that my sister-in-law got married on the eighteenth day of the first lunar month! So I came to talk to you!" Siya knew that Liang Xiucai understood what he said, and also knew that he must be very upset at the moment, so she said what she wanted to say After finishing speaking, she got up and left.

Just when Si Ya was about to leave the house, Liang Xiucai's voice wafted into his ears softly: "Don't tell mother about this! This year should be happy!"
