Lin Xiyan's voice was calm and slow, "Social fire is a variety of miscellaneous performances and juggling performances at the sacrificial ceremony or festivals. Fire has the meaning of prosperity and liveliness. Every time a god-welcoming contest and a gathering, a funeral event will be held, with gongs, drums, torches, lions, dragons and lanterns parades, and the crowds follow each other. It is obvious that the power of the human beings promotes the power of the gods, which forms the custom of the community fire. It is like the custom of the folk incense and the custom of the temple fair, just like the folk customs: the fire of the society enters the gods, the incense enters the people. It has a profound meaning and a long taste."

On the way home, Lin Xiyan spread the science of the community fire like them, from ancient totem worship, primitive singing and dancing, to court exorcism.

As time goes by, over the years, this kind of exorcism was introduced from the palace to the people, gradually forming huge folk ritual activities, and evolved into a rural event to worship gods, entertain gods, and welcome gods, and added to miscellaneous performances.

They have a new understanding of community fire and have learned more about the connotation, not limitations, dancing dragons, lions, and walking on stilts...

For example, people in the north must have dumplings on their dining tables, but in the south there is very little habit of eating dumplings in the New Year’s Eve dinner.

So in order to accommodate two northerners, Hua Banzhi and Zhou Guangming, they made dumplings for the New Year’s Eve dinner.

The three of them sat at the Eight Immortals table, making dumplings and chatting.

"I have time for the holiday tomorrow. I'll cook, let you taste it. What is the authentic New Year's Eve dinner here: the ingredients are fresh, the cooking pursues original flavor, and there are fewer big dishes and more stir-frying. The iconic seafood delicacies here, such as white-burned prawns, steamed scallops, steamed bungee fish, white-cut chicken, roast goose, roast duck, etc.." Lin Xiyan introduced with great interest, "Seafood is more than what I said above, big 600, razor clams, white shells, strips, geoducks, oysters, turquoise, turquoise... Steamed, stir-fried ginger and green onion, spicy stir-frying, and white scallions, and white scallions. It's just right that I'm on holiday. I'll make delicious food for you these days."

"It sounds delicious." Zhou Guangming said with saliva.

"Why haven't you eaten it before?" Lin Xiyan asked in confusion as he looked at him.

"I haven't heard of the name, mom, how to eat it before?" Zhou Guangming blinked and looked at him curiously.

"I can't even call the name, and I can't make it, so how can I eat it?" Hua Banzhi said with a light look at him, "And don't laugh at me if you say it."

"Why am I laughing at you?" Lin Xiyan stopped rolling the dumpling skin and looked up at her and said.

"Because I can't eat it!" Hua Banzhi looked at him and said indifferently, "There are still so small, I don't know how to start. It feels troublesome to do, it's hard to eat, and it's not enough to eat. It's so good that it's not as good as big fish and meat!"

"I'll do it, I'll make sure you'll have enough food!" Lin Xiyan said, looking at her with a smile and doting.

"Then we're waiting." Hua Banzhi said with a smile on her face.

"Okay!" Lin Xiyan said with a warm smile at her.

"Will you ask for a ticket?" Zhou Guangming suddenly spoke in a disgraceful manner.

"We have rich seafood here. Let's go to Boai Market and private stalls, so don't have tickets." Lin Xiyan looked at him and said with a smile.

"During the New Year, people may not be able to set up stalls!" Hua Banzhi suddenly remembered.

"Ah!" Lin Xiyan's face suddenly collapsed, and then said optimistically, "I will do it when I have time in the future. Tomorrow, I will go to the market to see if there are any fish that have missed the net." Then he urged, "Hurry, hurry up and make dumplings, and I will go to the market for a walk."

"Forget it, it's already this time. I'll go home for the New Year." Hua Banzhi looked at him and persuaded, "Anyway, I have time in the future."

"Go and try it, it's close anyway." Lin Xiyan accelerated the rolling ground.

The dumplings of three people were all in battle, so they were quickly made.

Lin Xiyan put down the small rolling pin, didn't even wash his hands, took the iron bucket, and rode his bicycle and left.

Since work, I went to the morning and came back late, and I even had lunch at the airport.

Although they often ask what they eat for lunch, it is still a northern dietary habit. Even if there is seafood, it is just sea fish and prawns, and they don’t notice it is inappropriate.

Only now did I realize that there were so many delicious seafood I had never eaten!

Fortunately, I still feel that I have done a good job, so I didn’t see it so brightly.

I rushed out of the family yard and rode into the Boai Market. As I thought, I was much deserted in New Year's Eve, but there were people who bought seafood.

Lin Xiyan bought a bucket of seafood without saying a word, and they were alive. They kept it for two days and spit out the mud, and there was no problem with eating fresh ones.

&*&

Lin Xiyan went to buy seafood, and put away the chopping board, small rolling pin, kitchen knife, and noodle bowl at home.

"Let's go! We have to invite them home." Hua Banzhi said to Zhou Guangming.

"Oh!" Zhou Guangming nodded solemnly.

The two stood in the yard with incense, set off firecrackers, and then entered the house with incense, and placed a wooden stick at the door, meaning that they would not go out.

Put the incense in front of the ancestor tablet and "please God" is completed.

In fact, a set of ancestor worship procedures is complicated and complicated. Hua Banzhi and Zhou Guangming are thousands of miles away, and it is a bit simpler, and it is enough to have the idea.

"By the way, when Guangming and Qingming wrote to your grandfather before Qingming, he asked him to help my mother sweep the grave. As for the money used to sweep the grave, I will send it back." Hua Banzhi looked at Zhou Guangming and said.

"Yes!" Zhou Guangming nodded hurriedly.

The Zhou family and the Hua family are for the front and back villages, so it is very convenient to ask Zhou’s father to help.

"Mom, my mother's grave is so lonely outside the pass, okay?" Zhou Guangming pulled open the chair and sat in front of the desk, looking at the tablet of the Ancient One on the desk.

"Not good! No one disturbed me." Hua Banzhi sat on the bed and looked at him and said.

"Don't worry! With your blessings and your concerns, your mother is very good." Hua Banzhi looked at him gently and said softly. Although she chose not a lucky place for thousands of years, it was also a blessed place.

"Every year, fellow villagers will help sweeping the graves." Hua Banzhi said as she looked at him with a calm voice.

"What if they only take money and don't do anything?" Zhou Guangming said worriedly.

"Don't worry! No, it's not. Most people won't do things that damage their good deeds." Hua Banzhi stretched out her hand and held his warm little hand and said.

"That's good!" Zhou Guangming said with peace of mind.

"When we grow up brightly, go see your mother and report on your achievements over the years." Hua Banjian said with his crystal clear eyes.

"Yes!" Zhou Guangming nodded with red eyes.

"I'm back." Lin Xiyan's voice came from the living room.

"Let's go out." Hua Banzhi stood up and pulled Zhou Guangming out together.

"I'm lucky today, come and have a look! I bought a lot of seafood." Lin Xiyan mentioned the bucket to them and said.
