However, when Yunyi saw the food box in the young boy's hand, he knew who it was. The food box was made by his second brother himself. He walked a few steps quickly and said, "You are the grandson of Uncle Xiao next door.
Right? You're here to return the food box."
"Yeah, here, thank you." Gu Jinan responded without any extra words and handed the food box he was holding to Yun Yi.
After Yunyi took it, Gu Jinan turned around and left.
Yes, just leave!
The father and daughter were left staring in shock.
What's going on? This kid is too aloof! The father and daughter looked at each other, didn't hesitate, closed the door and returned to the yard.
"Who is it?" Mrs. Zhao heard the noise and came out and asked.
Yunyi heard his mother's inquiry and immediately replied: "Oh, mother, the one next door is here to deliver the food box."
"Oh, okay, I got it. You can put the things in the kitchen and take out the roe deer."
"Hey, Mom, I'll go get it right now."
After Yunyi replied, he quickly took the food box into the kitchen and continued to pack the roe deer while it was still dark.
Everyone in the family had their own affairs. After having lunch, Old Yun took uncles and nephews Yunbei and Yuntian to the village chief and the Yun family elders to discuss a banquet for the villagers in two days.
Being a scholar in Yunbei is a matter of honor for the Yun family, and they were supposed to invite the villagers to have fun on the second day.
However, after Yuntian's new house was built, he had to invite close relatives to warm the stove, so they arranged it together, and the time was postponed for a few days. If there was any big event in the village, the ancestral hall would be opened and the running feast would be held, which was postponed.
We must talk to the clan elders in a few days. Furthermore, the family next door should also talk to the village chief and clan elders.
After Old Man Yun took Yunbei and Yuntian to tell the matter to the clan elders, the clan elders did not object at all. Anyway, the place next to the ancestral hall is huge. When the time comes, let the village chief arrange the tables and benches, and a village can't even fit them together.
together?
Chen, the village chief's daughter-in-law, also said that she would find a few hard-working women to help on the day of the banquet tomorrow.
After the matter was discussed, Old Yun returned to the Yun family with the two principals.
When Old Man Yun returned, it was already evening. Li Wanrou had already prepared dinner. There happened to be fresh roe deer meat at home, so she cut some to satisfy everyone's cravings. Mrs. Zhao had short hands, not to mention twenty taels of silver.
Old man Xiao asked his grandson to send so much meat again.
No matter how much Mrs. Zhao likes money and stinginess, she is more shrewd. She knows how to settle accounts. Today, these pheasants, rabbits and roe deer can be sold for about twenty taels of silver at least. Her family has saved a lot of expenses and can give to others.
Why can't we just add some sweetness?
So Mrs. Zhao was very generous and asked Yun Yi to send another meal. Old Yun, who was sitting next to her, felt nervous again. How could his old lady be so nice to the bad old man next door? Another meal?
Mrs. Zhao had no idea that she was happy to save money for her family, so she sent another meal to the old man next door, Xiao, which made her old man murmur again. If Mrs. Zhao knew about it, she would definitely say, you really think so.
Much, she just doesn't like that sloppy old man.
But the old man Xiao next door was very happy. He originally thought that he would eat the food cooked by his apprentice in the evening, but he didn't expect that the Yun family was so authentic and sent him food, which made him pretty.
Master and apprentice had a meal together, and it was the first time for Gu Jinan to eat such delicious food. He finally understood why his master was so happy.
Two days later, the news that the Yun family was going to treat the villagers to a meal had long been known to the villagers. Early in the morning, the village chief’s daughter-in-law, Mrs. Chen, brought several aunts and daughters-in-law who were quick and agile to the Yun family. Mrs. Zhao saw
The aunt and daughter-in-law brought by Mrs. Chen are all familiar to Mrs. Zhao.
Among them was Aunt Wang who spoke for Yunxi when the moon was full.
Mrs. Zhao didn't say much. She asked the five people who came to get the dinner materials and went to the Yun family ancestral hall.
Yunxi was picked up by her mother early in the morning. After washing and dressing, she went to the ancestral hall. Li Wanrou did not have to cook today. Mrs. Zhao would take care of the arrangements. She only needed to be a scholar today.
After all, it was her son who was admitted as a scholar. Li Wanrou hugged Yunxi along the way, and many villagers greeted Li Wanrou warmly.
It was noon when the banquet was held, and many villagers had already gone to the ancestral hall. Along the way, Yunxi also saw some uncles carrying tables and stools.
When they arrived at the open space next to the ancestral hall, the earthen stove for making running water mats had been set up, and a shed had also been built. In order to make the banquet good, Mrs. Zhao specially found a cook who often cooked weddings and weddings in these eight villages.
The master chef had already made preparations in front of the stove. Villagers from the village were everywhere around the ancestral hall, spontaneously placing tables and chairs.
The door of the ancestral hall is also open. After the clan elders come to preside over the ceremony, everyone can eat together.
Not long after his mother and sister left, Yunbei also dressed up and came to the Yun family ancestral hall.
Uncle Zhao's family also came early in the morning. After arriving at Yunjia Village, they went directly to the ancestral hall.
When Mrs. Zhao saw her eldest brother and sister-in-law coming, she went forward and made some warm greetings. She found a place for her eldest brother and sister-in-law to sit down. Mrs. Zhao went to work again. She had a lot to do today, and Uncle Zhao was very understanding.
Mrs. Zhao went to work, so there was no need to greet them.
It was very different in front of the Yun Family Ancestral Hall today. On the second day of the Yunbei Middle School Scholarship, Old Yun just brought everyone from the Yun Family to worship his parents.
This time, we formally worshiped the ancestors of the Yun family and informed the ancestors of the Yun family that the Yun family had produced another scholar, and he was still the first scholar.
Not long after Yunbei arrived, Old Yun Yun Yi and the village elders came. Today, everyone was dressed very decently. The village chief presided over the Yun clan members who entered the ancestral hall one after another.
The clan elder and village chief stood at the front, holding lit incense in their hands, and bowed respectfully to the tablet in the ancestral hall.
Because of the talented people in Yunbei, the memorial speech was recited by Yunbei.
When Yunbei began to recite, the expressions on the faces of the Yun clan members were extremely solemn, and they looked at the enshrined tablets with serious eyes.
After Yunbei finished reciting, the village chief walked to the tablet and said loudly: "Today, the eighth generation of the Yun family is still grandson Yunbei, who is the head of the high school examination. I hope that my ancestors will continue to bless him in the imperial examination, and he will be promoted to Jinshi in the high school."
, Guangzong Yaozu."
After finishing speaking, the village chief took the lead and knelt down, and all the Yun clan members behind him knelt down and kowtowed.
The women of the Yun family also spontaneously knelt down and kowtowed outside the ancestral hall. Ancient clan ancestral halls were extremely strict on etiquette, and women were not qualified to enter the ancestral hall. Therefore, these women, under the leadership of the village chief Chen, went to the ancestral hall.
Worshiping outside can be regarded as a sign of sincerity.
After the worship, Old Man Yun called the clan elders, the village chief and the Yun clan members to go to the banquet next door.
During the worship process, the chef has prepared a lot of meals, just waiting for everyone to serve them.
The Yun family spent a lot of money today, including chickens, fish, and roe deer meat. Even the rabbits and pheasants that Gu Jinan sent over were not wasted, and they were all used.
