After singing "Yellow Race Man", Li Bu and Li Xiaomu, the permanent residents of Lijia Village, neatly left carrying gongs, drums and musical instruments.
Then Li Aiguo once again took a genealogy and a microphone, slowly walked up to the wine table and began to host.
After walking up to the wine table, Li Aiguo opened the genealogy and read to the above content: "Li Zhongguo, the 165th generation descendant of Lijiacun, along with his sons Li Mingqiu, Li Mingheng, Li Mingli, and his grandsons Li Haoran, Li Haotian, Li Haoyun, special followers
I come back from Malaysia to visit my ancestors and hope that my ancestors will bless them with many children and grandchildren, and hope that they will be safe and prosperous from generation to generation."
"have!!"
After hearing Li Aiguo's shouting, Li Zhongguo led his descendants out neatly, knelt down in the direction of Lijiacun's tomb hill, and shouted loudly.
After seeing Li Zhongguo and the others kneeling down, Li Aiguo stretched out his hand to help Li Zhongguo up, and then continued to hold the microphone and read: "My descendants are sailing away for a long time, and the road back home is difficult. I hope our ancestors will forgive us for not being able to accompany them to worship our ancestors every year."
.
The current descendant Li Aiguo leads his descendants to offer wine to the ancestors, hoping that the ancestors will bless his descendants to prosper from generation to generation and pass on forever from generation to generation... Offer wine!!"
As Li Aiguo finished offering wine, the women in the village appeared again and handed out a large bowl to Li Zhongguo and his descendants one by one, and then the young people in the village poured white wine for them.
After the white wine was poured into the big bowl, Li Zhongguo, under the guidance of Li Aiguo, held the wine bowl and bowed three times to the tomb mountain. Then he stood up and led his descendants to pour the wine on the ground.
After pouring the wine, the ancestor worship of their lineage was completed, so Li Zhongguo led his descendants to slowly leave the open space, and returned his wine bowl to the women in the village, and then followed other village cadres.
Under the guidance, I retreated first.
After taking a look at the people in Li Zhongguo's lineage, Li Aiguo picked up the phone again, looked at the genealogy and read: "Li Tianhua, the 165th generation descendant of Lijiacun, along with his sons Li Wantian, Li Wanting, Li Wanyue, and his grandson Li Xiaoyue,
Li Xiaohong and Li Xiaoan came back from Malaysia to visit their ancestors and hope that their ancestors would bless them with many children and grandchildren, and that they would be safe and prosperous from generation to generation."
"have!!"
After hearing Li Aiguo's shouting, Li Tianhua, like Li Zhongguo, walked out neatly with the descendants of his own lineage, then knelt down in the direction of the Lijia Village tomb hill and shouted loudly.
After seeing Li Tianhua and others kneeling down, Li Aiguo stretched out his hand to help Li Tianhua up, and then continued to hold the microphone and read: "My descendants are sailing away for a long time, and it is difficult to return home. I hope our ancestors will forgive us for not being able to accompany them to worship our ancestors every year."
The current descendant, Li Tianhua, leads his descendants to offer wine to the ancestors, hoping that the ancestors will bless his descendants to prosper from generation to generation and pass on forever from generation to generation... Offer wine!!"
As Li Aiguo finished offering wine, the women in the village appeared again and handed out a large bowl to Li Tianhua and his descendants one by one, and then the young people in the village poured white wine for them.
After the white wine was poured into the big bowl, Li Tianhua, under the guidance of Li Aiguo, held the wine bowl and bowed three times to the tomb mountain. Then he stood up and led his descendants to pour the wine on the ground.
After pouring the wine, Li Tianhua led his descendants and exited the open space just like Li Zhongguo had done before. Then he returned the wine bowls to the women in the village, and finally a group of people went to find Li Zhongguo and the others.
The ancestor worship method in Lijiacun is very complicated, but also very strict.
And it is precisely because of the strictness that tonight's host Li Aiguo drank five bottles of mineral water and said the words of ancestor worship 38 times.
After all the people from the Lijiacun branch were finished, he handed the microphone to the village elder Li Zhaohua, and then began the memorial ceremony for their Lijiacun branch.
This memorial ceremony is indeed a bit complicated, but it is also very simple.
It was cumbersome because as the host, Li Zhaohua needed to write long and lengthy remarks about various kinds of ancestor worship.
It's simple because, regardless of whether the villagers except him understand it or not, they just need to shout "Yes" loudly.
The ancestor worship ceremony started at 9:45, and the ceremony was not completed until 11:30. Then the villagers began to celebrate after the ancestor worship.
Ten people per table, Lijiacun has set up 222 tables tonight to entertain all the guests above Lijiacun.
By the way, it is worth mentioning that today the restaurants in the town are closed collectively.
Don't ask why, I'll tell you if you ask, it's because there is no chef.
Why are there no chefs? Because they were all borrowed by Lijiacun.
This time, Lijiacun not only borrowed all the chefs in the town, but also invited all the dramas, bands, plays, etc. in the Laochao area to the mountain.
Even in order to make it more exciting, Li Bu specially invited dramas from the capital, shadow puppets by the Yellow River, and two-person performances from the three eastern provinces. Anyway, it was just as lively as other people's Chinese New Year.
Of course, Lijiacun is not someone who only cares about his own happiness.
During the celebration, Lijiacun also sent a gift to every student in every school in the town, a set of beautiful clothes and a small bag of the children's favorite White Rabbit toffee. These gifts were given to them after school started.
You can get it.
In addition, we also sent warmth and love to each orphanage, nursing home, and poor households in other villages, including new clothes, rice, oil, salt, milk, and a small charity donation.
The celebration was very lively and joyful, and everyone had a happy smile on their face. In addition, every villager who returned to Lijia Village felt the warmth of home and the tolerance of their home.
During the seven-day National Day holiday, Lijiacun celebrated for three days, and the remaining four days were for the returning troops to leave.
In fact, after the ancestor worship ceremony in Lijia Village was completed, the villagers in Lijia Village had already started, and some people left intermittently.
After the seven-day National Day holiday, Lijiacun returned to its normal number of 269 people.
Then they began to return to their normal life, and began to be busy building more B&Bs in Lijia Village, as well as demolishing old houses and building new ones for the villagers in the village.
Just when Lijiacun began to return to a peaceful life, a documentary called "The Heritage of a Thousand-Year Ancient Village" instantly caused a sensation across the country and all Chinese circles at home and abroad.
This documentary tells the origin of Lijiacun and how it has been passed down from thousands of years ago to the present.
In addition, the ancestors of Lijiacun who were hidden in the hero list were also unearthed one by one.
This documentary lasts for two hours, thirty-seven minutes and forty-eight seconds. The entire video tells the past and glory of Lijiacun. After watching it, people can’t help but want to learn more about this mysterious and ancient village.
Of course, the most shocking thing is the war song of Lijiacun.
In addition, the war song was finally confirmed by a group of archaeologists. It was indeed a war song from more than a thousand years ago, a unique war song from the Li Jiajun, the most powerful army in history.
What's even more surprising is that although the score and lyrics of this song have been lost, it was unexpectedly passed down completely by word of mouth by the villagers of Lijia Village.
This documentary brought so many shocking things to everyone, so countless people suddenly had the idea to visit this village that has been passed down for thousands of years, and to listen to which song has been passed down through the ages.
War song......
But unfortunately, they were all blocked at the foot of the mountain in Lijiacun by a sign that said "Lijiacun is under renovation, all visitors are not allowed".
