Eating big melon is so refreshing
Chapter 113: Opening the Temple to Worship the Ancestors (1)
At daybreak, the big rooster of Zhao Dong's family jumped onto the roof and crowed, and all the roosters in Zhaojia Village followed its lead.
Xiao Chunya hates the big rooster in the village the most. She can't even sleep in the village. She always thinks that the original meaning of "hearing the cock crow and rising up to dance" is that when the big rooster crows, the owner uses a knife to scare it, because waving the knife too wildly looks like dancing.
Mrs. Jiang, who was too excited to sleep all night, and Mrs. Zhao, who was too happy and worried to sleep, got up after hearing the crowing of the rooster. However, when they entered the kitchen, they found that Mrs. Du had come earlier and was already boiling water.
"Old Third Family, you're up so early?"
"Mother, I couldn't sleep and came here when I heard the rooster crowing." Mrs. Du lived more than 200 meters away from the old house. She asked, "How do you make breakfast today?"
"I made a pot of soup last night, let's cook noodles today, add an egg for each child." Zhao Yang said, "Second brother, go and see if Xiaochun'er's court dress needs to be altered?"
Jiang looked a little depressed. "Has Xiaochun gained weight again? This is already the largest court dress. If she gains weight again, it won't look good."
Xiao Chunya is indeed too fat. Other children have normal development, but she has expanded. Fortunately, she is agile and is a flexible little fat girl.
Little Chunya was sleeping soundly and chewing a chicken drumstick in her dream, but she was pulled out of bed by her father. She woke up when the cold wind blew and she got angry. "I want to sleep! You are not a good father!"
Zhao Erlang usually spoils his fat girl, but today that’s not the case. His hand cooled the little chubby face and the fat girl cried out.
"I am a good father, but I am able to raise you so fat. Today we are going to open the temple to worship our ancestors. You are the protagonist and you cannot sleep in."
"The sun hasn't risen yet. It's too early." Xiao Chunya yawned. She knew that resistance was futile and she could only accept her fate. Next time, she suggested to the village chief to open the ancestral hall at noon.
"Brother, get up!" We have been through thick and thin together, and I was woken up early in the morning. As a younger brother, how could I sleep in?
Xiao Qiulin grabbed the quilt and rolled himself up like a worm. It was so cold, and he got up so early in the morning. Was he crazy?
half an hour later
Xiaoqiu yawned as she accompanied her sister to eat breakfast. Apart from Xiaoqing who was still sleeping happily in bed, Daqing and Sanniu also sat together to eat breakfast, of course, they were both sleepy.
"The sun hasn't even risen yet, and a group of people are standing at the door of the ancestral hall, shivering?" Xiao Chunya looked at the people in the room. Why is there one missing? "Grandma, where's Grandpa?"
"They've already arrived at the ancestral hall, Xiaochun'er, you still need to get dressed later, so hurry up and eat breakfast."
Isn't it just a matter of putting on court robes and a pearl crown, and that's it?
Princess, county lady, county lady and country lady are all titles for women of the royal family, so Xiao Chunya's court dress is a pearl and jade three- phoenix crown, a cinnabar red shirt, a dark blue silk jacket embroidered with gold peacocks, and a gold embroidered magpie pattern shawl.
After breakfast, little Chunya was taken by the adults to comb her hair and wash her face. Great grandmother, second grandmother and third grandmother all came. She could not handle so many people alone, so she could only let herself be manipulated like a puppet.
Outside the ancestral hall
Except for the male members of the Zhao clan who were too young (had not yet learned to walk) to miss this ancestor worship, even the several old and trembling clan leaders came here slowly with the support of their grandsons.
The women of the Zhao family were ranked outside according to their seniority. They were not qualified to enter the ancestral hall. Apart from the village chief's wife, the only one who could prepare tributes in the ancestral hall was the Jiang family. One of them was the mother of the scholar, and the other was the mother of the county lady.
"I'm coming!"
Zhao Erlang was afraid that the fat girl would delay the auspicious event, and was also afraid that he would accidentally fall and get his court robes dirty, so he simply brought the fat girl with him.
Xiao Chunya stood quietly in front of the door of this ancient and solemn ancestral hall. The sun was shining from above her head, and after clever refraction, the whole ancestral hall was bathed in a golden light, shining so brightly that it was almost impossible to look directly at it.
The tribesmen who were watching were amazed at this magical and spectacular sight. At this moment, someone took the lead and knelt down to worship Xiao Chunya, and the people around followed suit.
The sudden change made Xiao Chunya panic. In panic, she instinctively flew into the air with a "swoosh" sound, trying to avoid this inexplicable worship.
Unfortunately, things did not go as planned. Due to excessive tension, Xiao Chunya lost her balance and fell into the ancestral hall involuntarily. Finally, she stumbled and knelt down in front of the ancestral tablet.
"My dear countryman, you have great martial arts skills!"
Suddenly, a cry of admiration was heard from the crowd, and then many people began to echo it.
After hearing these voices, Xiao Chunya almost fell to the ground. She cursed in her heart: Who is this hateful guy who is flattering me so much? He is just trying to embarrass her in public!
Xiao Chunya looked up at the strange and solemn tablet in front of her. At this moment, she seemed to be able to really feel the gaze of the ancestors and their expectations of her. Her originally irritable mood calmed down in an instant.
The village chief and Zhao Dong walked into the ancestral hall and saw Xiao Chunya kneeling devoutly in front of the ancestral tablet. They nodded with satisfaction and waved their hands, and the male members of the Zhao family walked in in an orderly manner.
"For a mere ninth-rank county lady, we have been busy from early morning till now to open a temple to worship our ancestors. We have been busy from early morning till now, exhausted both physically and mentally. Why bother?"
Xiao Chunya's inner voice rang out. She was kneeling in the front with her head down, so she didn't know what the expressions of the people behind her were to make the whole thing more exciting.
"I regretted not being able to come back for Brother Zhao Ming's Scholar's Banquet before, but now I'm glad I didn't come back at that time. I guess I had a lot of trouble that day. When my brother passes the exam, I'd better find a place to hide." Xiao Chunya said, "Mine is just a college exam, which is not a formal honor. I'll just muddle through it when the time comes. Dear ancestors, I actually have a dream in my heart. I want to become a great general. I want to be a god of war."
Suddenly, an ancestor's tablet fell from the altar, and Zhao Dong exclaimed "Dad!" The tablet that fell was his father Zhao Desheng, who was also Xiao Chunya's great-grandfather.
The village chief coughed and said, "Xiaochun, it's not time to make a wish yet."
Great general! God of war! Even the ancestor couldn't stand such stimulation and rolled down from the stage.
Look at how excited the expressions of the clan members are. They all feel in their hearts that Xiaochun'er is worthy of being the village lady. Her life goal is so grand. If the Zhao family can produce a great general, the family will definitely be able to have a hundred years of glory recorded in history!
