Section 8 Qingming

The academy is on holiday, and even the four masters have left the academy, because the Qingming Festival is here, and worshiping ancestors is the biggest thing for a family, and the Yun family is no exception.

Lao Niu left and said that he would probably not come back in the future. This made Yun Ye very sad. Without the old general's supervision, he was worried that the academy would lose order. Lao Niu said mysteriously: "No, if he leaves, it will naturally happen."

Someone will take over, but who it is, I won’t tell him yet.”

The students in the academy were like wild horses running loose, putting on their own brocade robes and accessories. It was not uncommon to see flowers on their hats. Meng BuTong hung almost everything he could, making jingling sounds.

It's like a grocery store. He also said that he had made a big loss and couldn't show it off after buying it. He put it in a box and wasted everything. This time he didn't take it off even when he was sleeping.

With bright clothes and angry horses, light cars and fat fur, the youthful demeanor of Chang'an was fully demonstrated at this time.

Yun Ye just said: It's a pity that there is no young girl, otherwise

Before he finished speaking, a group of beasts began to howl and kill towards Chang'an.

The old lady prepared very well, including a whole pig, a whole sheep, a two-foot-long fat carp, a goose with a ribbon around its neck, a chicken with its feet tied to the ground, a mountain of snacks, and countless others.

The clear paper money was turned into boxes of paper ingots and bundles of incense candles, and then the grandson was brought with him and everything was done.

The old lady was pointing around the house like a general. The servants in the house were ordered around, and the aunts and uncles were not spared. Each of them was busy with a maid, and the honor guard of the Hou Mansion was wiped so that people could be seen.

, there is a black tiger with teeth and claws on the huge flag flag, which represents the master's background as a general.

The whole Yun Mansion is relatively shabby. There are only two official uniforms, one for Yun Ye and one for grandma. One is from the third rank and the other is from the third rank. There are only these two bosses, and there is no feeling of being surrounded by stars. This makes the old grandma very sad.

She was more envious of the old lady of the Pei family. She was only a second-grade imperial concubine, but she was surrounded by a large group of third- and fourth-grade imperial concubines. She was guarded in the middle like an ancestor, and she was so majestic.

The old lady glanced at Yunye resentfully. She told him about several girls from good families, but none of them took her fancy. For example, the fourth girl from the Yinggong family, the second young lady from the Wang family, and even the cousin from the eldest grandson's family didn't like her.

Go ahead, is it possible that you want to marry a princess?

If this doesn’t work, the princess cannot be married to a good family. Not only will she have to live separately, but she can only marry one person. How can my old lady survive after being separated from her grandson? If the princess cannot have children, this will not put the Yun family into a pit of fire.

Litui?

A while ago, I kept sending food to the palace, but now I don’t. I don’t know what happened.

The old grandma looked at her and felt very scared. Knowing what she was thinking, she just wanted to hug her great-grandson as soon as possible. She always said that she was lonely around her, but she didn't understand. How could she be so lonely with eight squeaking little girls?

"Hey, my ancestor, please don't look at your grandson with such strange eyes. I have goosebumps on my back. If you want a great-grandson, please wait. I'm afraid you won't be able to hold him in a few years.

Wife, let's go home in groups, you just wait for the fat boy on your left, the fat girl on your right, surrounded by little people in front, back, left and right, some of them will bother you."

Yun Ye's words made his aunt and uncle laugh non-stop. The old lady slapped Yun Ye on the head in embarrassment: "Smelly boy, that's my wife, not a goose. You are shouting at me in groups, really there must be a group of little ones."

There are people surrounding grandma, even if I am exhausted, I am still willing to do so."

The fiefdom was only thirty miles away from the ancestral temple, and we arrived there in an hour.

From a distance, I saw two cypress trees, which were called Laoye cypresses by later generations. Now they are only as thick as a little girl's arm, and their flaky leaves are layered on top of each other, like two big umbrellas held up in front of the ancestral hall.

Grandma repainted the ancestral hall as early as last year, with vermilion pillars, vermilion doors, and a vermilion old man. This old man is in red clothes, red trousers, and a red scarf on his head. If he has a long

If you want to be a little fatter, just say goodbye to Ah Fu.

He ran over from afar and lay down on the ground to salute the old lady. Seeing that Yun Ye was a little surprised, the old lady said

"He was an old man in the previous family, and he didn't have enough thoughts. After the Yun family was defeated, he had nowhere to go, so grandma let him live in the ancestral hall, so that he could take care of the ancestral hall and give him a place to settle down. As a result,

He has lived there for sixteen years. Thanks to him these years, otherwise the ancestral hall would have been abandoned long ago and you would not have had the chance to come and worship your ancestors."

The old grandma was a little sad. She stopped the little girl who was about to crawl on Yun Ye. Today was a big day. She didn't allow the little girl to be unrestrained for fear of being seen by her ancestors. The little girl was speechless but didn't dare to cry. Yun Ye was about to comfort her.

But he was taken away by his aunt.

The old man was really called Ah Fu. He ignored Yun Ye and just talked around his grandma Abba Abba. Grandma also talked to him with words and gestures. It seemed that they were talking very enthusiastically. Yun Ye did not disturb them and went in.

Look around the ancestral hall.

It is not as grand as later generations, especially without the two huge stone lions made of cement, which makes it even more cramped. Bells are hung on the cornices at the four corners, and they ring when the wind blows. This kind of copper bells has the most beautiful sound.

It is a daydream that seduce people, especially when Yun Ye seems to have a feeling of constant changes in time and space. After a while, the fourth grandfather of later generations was sitting on the tall Taishi chair, sketching the family tree, and kept cursing those unworthy descendants.

After a while, there was the figure of old Ah Fu in red clothes and red trousers, diligently wiping dust everywhere. When he closed his eyes, he felt that the world was spinning and the surrounding walls were squeezing towards him.

"Ye'er, Ye'er." Grandma called out several times before pulling Yun Ye out of the nightmare.

"Ye'er, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell? Today we have to worship our ancestors. You're standing still. It won't take long. Maybe your ancestors were looking at you just now. Don't worry. This is a family temple. Lonely souls and wild ghosts can't enter.

Come, sit on the ridge by the door and let our ancestors have a good look at the Yun family's thousand-mile horse."

The walls are covered with wooden signs. The ghosts of men who have died in the Yun family over the past hundred years seem to be looking at Yun Ye. It doesn't matter. Yun Ye is free to let you see enough. I am a genuine descendant of the Yun family, from body to body.

The souls are all, they are not fakes, they are just 1,400 years old.

This is the so-called suspicion, being indifferent but feeling comfortable all over. Watching grandma and auntie busy placing offerings, but unable to get involved, they just don’t care, wandering around the world with their hands behind their backs, Xiaoya and Daya follow their brother and pick out the pine nuts in his pocket, Yun

Ye was not used to putting things in his sleeves, so he asked his grandma to sew two pockets on his waist. It was very comfortable to put his hands in the pockets in winter, and the same was true for Cheng Chumo's clothes. The image of the two brothers shopping with their hands in their pockets was very eye-catching.

Yun Ye didn't like filling a bag full of coppers, making a squeaking noise when walking, and burning the buns. He asked his grandma to break the silver into thin leaves, and then put the Yunfu mark on them. One leaf was worth ten cents, which was very convenient.

As long as they don't buy luxury goods or go to the East Market, a leaf is enough for the two brothers to spend half a day shopping.

There are no cigarettes! I never thought about quitting smoking, but now I am forced to quit, so I have developed the habit of having snacks in my pocket. The two little girls are very miserable now. Grandma not only found a writing teacher, but also hired

An old palace maid who left the palace taught eight girls etiquette. The last time she saw the little girl suffering, she said a few words. Unexpectedly, she was punished by the women in the family, saying that this was a good thing that they could not ask for.

I dared to make irresponsible remarks. I begged for a long time before they let me go. The sight of hundreds of ducks in my ears was too scary. I could only ignore the little girl's tearful eyes and cover her face as she ran away.

They worshiped their ancestors devoutly in the smoke. The one-foot-long altar table was filled with offerings. In the middle was a huge fat pig, which was steamed in a wooden box. It was oily and looked very delicious, as was the sheep.

, the cow is not something that the little marquis can use to sacrifice his ancestors. If someone finds it, he will be beheaded, so the Yun family uses a fish instead.

There were several eminent monks from nowhere outside the ancestral hall who were reciting an unknown scripture loudly, over and over again. Auntie and the others could not enter the ancestral hall, so they could only burn huge amounts of paper money outside. Ah Fu in red threw the paper money skillfully.

Go high into the sky and let the paper money be carried by the mountain wind to the distant mountains.

The monk finished reciting the sutra a hundred times and left with a large bag of copper coins with satisfaction. Yun Ye and his family took improved hoes and shovels to the ancestral tomb behind the ancestral hall. The tomb was well-kept and there was not a single weed on it.

, grandma praised old Ah Fu, gave him a large jar of wine, and also gave him the pig's head. Ah Fu happily held the wine jar and gnawed the pig's head.

Grandma and Yun Ye put a shovel of soil on each grave, with tears in their eyes but smiles on their faces, mumbling something vague.

After cultivating the soil, the aunt and uncle each cried on the graves of their loved ones. They held the overwhelmed little Ya and led the confused grandma Da Ya to point to grandpa's tomb and said: "Ye'er, grandma, you will be here a hundred years from now."

How about grandma and your grandfather being buried together in a big grave? You know grandma is used to living in a big house, but not a small one. It will be very crowded."

"Grandma, why are you talking about these things today? You are still strong and you will have no problem staying with your grandson for a few more decades. Don't you have to value your grandson? Why do you want to accompany grandpa now? Grandpa will not be lonely when he has so many relatives around him. Here

Can you bear to be alone with Ye'er?"

Yun Ye burst into tears, and the little girl couldn't wipe them away no matter how hard she tried. Grandma held Yun Ye in her arms, patted her gently, and said, "I can't let you go, I can't let you go!"
