"Crackling!" There was a burst of firecrackers, and a burst of green smoke rose into the sky from the ancestral grave. In front of the stone steps, Li Xiang knelt down in a red robe and kowtowed hard several times.
Several old people were talking about ancestors' guarantees, spirits, and high-ranking ancestors. Li Feng, who was behind the crowd, looked at Li Xiang with some sympathy. This child must have been tortured a lot today. Not to mention getting up early in the morning, this red robe, this
Wearing it in the hot summer, it was steaming, and I was definitely sweating. Li Feng knew this very well, and he made a fuss for more than half an hour.[..com]
After placing the offerings, burning the yellow paper, and kowtowing, Li Xiang could finally take a breath. Yesterday, the boy came over to ask Li Feng about this matter, but Li Feng couldn't remember it clearly. He only remembered that it was a very noisy day, and finally
I felt dizzy immediately, and I woke up the next day still feeling dizzy.
Li Xiang finally understood that his red robe was so thick that it made people vomit blood. Yesterday, his third brother Li Feng did not say that he would wear this thing. I heard that this thing seemed to be the number one scholar robe in the play. This one can be regarded as an antique. Li Feng remembered
Who said this was the opera costume of the Republic of China? The ancestors of Lijiagang bought it with bamboo. How many years ago, I wore it twice. The first time was of course classmate Li Feng. This second time, it was Li Feng with a sad face in front of me.
Xiang.
"Third brother, this is too much." After the ancestor worship was completed, Li Xiang came close to Li Feng and pointed at the clothes he was wearing. Why did these things look more and more like a groom's official, especially when he was wearing a hat on a hot day?
If Li Xiang hadn't seen his father glare at him fiercely, he would have thrown this thing away long ago.
"Haha, you know now, you still don't believe me when I tell you it's hard work, but you can bear it for a long time, don't you wear it once, the second master and the others treasure this thing." Li Feng held back a smile and patted it as if to take it.
Li Xiang, who was crying, helped his sleeves and straightened his hat.
"Third brother, you are so bad." Li Xiang complained in a low voice with a bitter look on his face. He had just made it more scattered and cooler. Li Feng's arrangement made it even more airtight. Not to mention the hat, it became more and more cool.
Fastened and fastened firmly.
"Ah, I forgot." Li Feng saw Li Xiang looking at him pitifully with a crying face, and waved his hands, saying that he was doing bad things with good intentions. When he saw the second master coming over, Li Feng stepped forward to help him take the
object.
"Jian... Bao, you haven't been here for several days, and your second wife still calls you a brat." Li Feng heard the words and secretly laughed in his heart. The second wife was thinking about him, and the old man must be thinking about drinking at this moment. The second wife usually thinks about you.
The second master was only allowed to drink a small cup a day except for Li Feng. The second mistress was happy to let him drink as much as he wanted. Li Feng was busy with family work these days and did not go to the village today.
"Haha, don't you just buy chickens? I've been busy building a shed these two days. By the way, Second Master, you have to have a good drink today." Li Feng said with a smile. Second Master couldn't stand it anymore.
What did the boy say?
"Drink, you boy, you can have a few more drinks with me today." The second master glared at Li Feng. Li Feng, who was speaking through gritted teeth, smiled and shook his head. The old man was usually very serious, but now he became very angry.
"Okay, I will always drink with you at noon, but the protagonist today is not me. Big boy, you have to drink well with the second master.
"Today's lunch banquet will be held directly in Hewanzi. The person preparing the banquet is a master chef hired by the uncle from the neighboring village of Likouzi. The dishes are cooked smoothly.
Today there are only men at the banquet, not women. There were many rules in the mountains in the past, and women were not allowed to attend the banquet, but these rules have become less common in recent years. Today, women only come to help wash vegetables, cut vegetables, and wash dishes. At noon at Auntie's house
When it comes to eating, women eat alone, which is much better now than in the past. In the past, women had no status and mostly ate in the kitchen.
"Serving the dishes, the six names on the gold list will pay homage to one." Li Feng, Li Can, Li Xu, Li Changlin, Li Changgui, and several young people prepared early on the side. A large rectangular tray of red lacquered wood was placed with six cold dishes.
, with a shout, several people came with trays to serve food. There were only five tables, and there were only three tables with people from the village. The last two tables were the aunt's family, grandpa, uncle, uncle here, and so on.
We are sitting at the main table. Originally, the second master was supposed to accompany us, but here Mr. Lin, Mr. Wang, Mr. Jiang Fatty, Mr. Zhou, Mr. Cheng, Mr. Zhou Yan, and Mr. Wu Kan’s father came over to join in the fun and set up a table.
Li Shan and the Second Master came over to keep them company. Only Li Fukui and Li Xiang were at the main table, which was fine. Although the Second Master was an elder, he was not a direct relative, and the whole table was filled with people within three generations.
"Serve the dishes, study hard in the cold window, get the title on the gold list, come out on top, and leap over the dragon's gate." Li Feng took a look and saw that the title on the gold list was just braised hoof legs. He quickly brought it to the table, and several people leaned against the kitchen set up to fry it.
The chicken nuggets were a bit chewy.
"Look at that kid Li Xiang, he's wearing crooked clothes." Li Can came over to touch Li Feng and handed him the chicken pieces. What was the name of this dish? It was a surprise. They were all roosters.
"Haha, try wearing such thick clothes on this hot day." Li Feng turned around and saw a few people with a hint of envy on their faces. They went to college.
"I don't have a chance to wear it. I hope my son can wear this suit." Li Can spoke in a low voice. Although many people in rural areas now say that going to college is useless, these people still hope that their children and grandchildren can make a difference.
How many families are selling everything they can to raise tuition fees, hoping that their children and grandchildren will go to college and change their muddy lives.
"Okay, let's serve the food. Let's have a few drinks together. Xiaobao, since you've been back for so long, this is the first time for us to drink together." Li Changgui patted Li Can on the shoulder and smiled.
Looking at Li Feng, he was not doing business outside, but he rarely went home on weekdays.
"Let's go, after serving this dish, let's set up a table and have a drink. We have been busy all morning, and I am really hungry." Li Can smiled and took the roast chicken. This one was a blockbuster, a garlic-flavored stir-fried amaranth, and several people saw it.
They looked at this thing and wondered what it was. When they asked, the master gave a few people a hard look.
"Scholarly family." "Serving, scholarly family." The last dish was red date and lotus seed soup. Few people dared to ask, but Li Feng maliciously thought that behind the title of the gold medal, it seemed like a bridal chamber candle. Could it be that he was born prematurely? In fact,
This thing is called Zhuangyuan Jixiang Soup. "Finally we are done." The brothers pulled up the small table, chairs and benches, and picked up a few dishes and other things. This meal for noon could not be eaten by just a few of them. But in the evening, Li Xiang
The boy invited me alone, and there was nothing particular about it. The master chef just used the ingredients to fry up a few dishes to go with the wine.
"Here it comes, hehe, cold beer, come on, let's make a dragon fly all over the world." There was a lot of lobster left in the pot, and several people grabbed a plate. Li Can carried huā uncooked rice from the shop, and several people ate it.
Lobster, a few side dishes to go with wine, and drinking cold beer. After being tired for a long time, it was a pleasure to eat. Seeing that the master hadn't eaten yet, Li Feng called over to join the table.
It was lively at noon. Li Feng and the others had a few bites and looked at Li Xiang shaking from a distance. This guy couldn't stand it now. The toasts began. Elders are indispensable. The guests at the five tables that left him speechless were all elders, uncles,
Brother, Li Xiang was already a little dizzy when he came to the second table. This person's drinking capacity is pretty good, but there are so many people, and the uncle helped to replace a lot of wine, but he still couldn't hold it anymore.
"Haha, look how tough it is this time. Xiaobao, you seem to have only three tables that time, right?" Li Changlin picked up a beer bottle and touched one with Li Feng. Several people directly carried the bottles, and now one person is doing it.
I bought one bottle, this is my second bottle, you are welcome, my brothers.
"No, after three tables, I can't even tell the difference between east, west, north and south. It's really difficult this time." Li Feng recorded the lobster while recording it. It didn't have much flavor. The master's craftsmanship was really good.
"Come on, let's toast Master Li for Li Xiang. I haven't talked about his craftsmanship." Li Feng suggested that the brothers raise their glasses together. Master Li said that they are all from the same family and do not speak the same language.
Several people drank one. As for Li Xiang, he looked dizzy at the moment. He could only toast one by one with his uncle. In the end, both father and son fell down. But the uncle smiled at the corner of his mouth and drank happily. He would get drunk a few more times.
I am willing in my heart.
"Here, let's take another one." Li Can pinched the Huasheng and threw it into his mouth. He held up the bottle. It was steaming. They took off their shirts and put them on their shoulders.
The bottles of wine clinked together. They hadn't been together for many years. Li Feng was very emotional. Drinking really cares about feelings. Now Li Changgui and Li Changlin are married with wives and children. Li Xu, the quiet man who keeps quiet about things, is engaged.
Getting married at the end of the year. As for Li Can, he has had several girlfriends, and he still hasn’t figured it out yet. Fortunately, he is the youngest and is only twenty-two or thirty years old now, so it’s not too late.
Li Feng and others drank two or three bottles each, but they didn't drink any more. After the banquet, they had to clean up. The cleaning of the No. 1 Scholar banquet was different from others. The Fu woman led her children to hold bowls, bowls, etc.
The host's family will not take it back, and the leftovers will be divided among the village. The leftovers are nothing, but these are customs, the No. 1 Scholar's Banquet, and those who have children bring them home to feed their children. They will be happy and maybe themselves
The child can also get the first prize and go to university in the future.
The wealthy woman held the child in one hand and the bowl and chopsticks in the other. Li Feng and others helped divide the food. When eating, everyone would leave one or two dishes behind and not touch them. Each family would share some of these dishes.
, Li Feng and the others should tidy up the rest.
Of course, someone will do the dishes and chopsticks washing.
"Mengmeng, Lingdang, Leilei, you are here too, you asked you to come." Li Feng saw three little guys weighing bowls and chopsticks, surrounding the table. Leilei was better, he could see, Mengmeng and Lingdang could only see
Looking eagerly, Li Feng saw that a table of roast chickens was not moving, so he quickly made two chicken tui and stuffed them into Mengmeng and Lingdang's bowls. As for Leilei, he made two chicken wings.
"Um, um, um, grandma Zhang asked us to come." Mengmeng said while chewing on the chicken tui.
This chicken is all home-raised local chicken. It has been aged for a few years, and the meat is tight. The chef did a good job and tastes very good. Li Feng worked quickly and made two chicken tui. The remaining roast chicken Li Feng let Er Hao and
Linlin, Erya, the children were divided.
"My mother?" Li Feng was stunned for a moment, a little doubtful, looking at Leilei's dodge, maybe this girl came over with her own idea. I don't know who heard it from someone, and saw the second child gnawing on the roast chicken.
Mengmeng was bragging around him. Li Feng shook his head. It was the second child who said half of this. Mengmeng took it to heart...!
