The Local Lazy Man System

Chapter 336 It's time to worship the ancestors

"Brother Glory, let me tell you, this afternoon the island country's network was compromised by a hacker, and a virus called 'Xiao Si Lai New Year' spread in the island country, and the island country's train stations, airports, and banks stopped operating for three hours. It's too fun." Ma Lin said happily.

"Haha, I didn't expect you to be an angry youth." Ye Rongrong said with a smile.

"Of course, I'm very patriotic," Marlene said.

"The affairs of the island country are too far away from us, so let's just leave it alone. Should we take care of our stomachs now? I'm empty now."

Ye Rongyao touched his stomach and said. It seems that mental activities are sometimes more tiring than physical activities, and the stomach is also hungry.

"The food is already ready, just wait for you to get up and eat together." Liu Qingqing said with a smile.

...

Not long after the meal, the fifth grandfather Ye always came to the house.

"Grandpa Fifth, it's so late, what are you doing here?"

Ye Rongrong asked. After all, if the rural people have nothing to do, under normal circumstances, they will not go to other people's homes at night. Because most people in rural areas are used to going to bed early and getting up early, if you go to bed at night, it will affect the rest of others.

"You are in charge of your family now, so I'm looking for you to ask if you are going to worship your ancestor tomorrow?" Ye Xiangkai asked Ye Xiangkai, looking at Ye Rongrong.

Ye Xiangkai is the person in charge of the Ye Clan in Ye Rongrong's vein, and things like ancestor worship are basically convened and arranged by him.

"Tomorrow worshipping ancestors, I thought it would be a few days." Ye Rongrong said in surprise.

In the past, people visited tombs to worship their ancestors during the Qingming Festival, but in the past ten years, with the development of the economy, more and more people have gone out to work. Except for the New Year, everyone can basically come back. It's hard to gather so many people.

Even now the country has made Qingming a statutory holiday, plus Saturday and Sunday, there are three days off, but those who work a little farther away from home. There is no way to get back at this time, and there is no way to get most of the people together to visit the tombs and worship their ancestors.

Therefore, in recent years, many places have changed the time of Qingming tomb-sweeping and ancestor worship to be before the tenth day of the first lunar month, at this time. Basically, everyone has not gone out to work, and after the fifth and sixth day of the first lunar month, everyone is basically paying respects to the New Year.

This ancestor worship.

Especially for ancestor worship, it is important to have more people and strength, so that outsiders dare not underestimate this surname family.

"It's just tomorrow. We discussed last time that we will worship ancestors on the seventh day of the first lunar month." Ye Xiang said.

"Okay, I'll be fine tomorrow, let's go too."

Ye Rongrong thought for a while and said. To be honest, Ye Rongrong was so grown up, he had never participated in the ancestor worship at the ancestral hall, and he didn't even know where his ancestor's grave was.

It was Ye Rongrong's father who went there before. After Ye Rongrong's parents died, the fifth grandfather did not invite Ye Rongyao to participate in the ancestor worship. Mainly at that time, the fifth grandfather was very dissatisfied with Ye Rongrong.

But now Ye Rongguang has become better, and he can be regarded as the number one person in the village. Even among the young people in the entire ancestral hall, he is also a number one person.

"Brother Glory, I'm going too." Ma Lin said.

"I'll go as well."

Ye Shuting also hurriedly looked at Ye Rongrong and said.

Although Liu Qingqing didn't say anything, the look in Ye Rongyao's eyes also revealed that he wanted to go. Liu Qingqing has been married to Ye Rongrong's family for two years. She has never sacrificed her family, and she doesn't even know where her man's ancestral grave is.

You must know that for a family, the family's ancestral hall and ancestral tomb are very important in people's consciousness. There is a very strong meaning.

"Grandpa Fifth, can they go?"

Ye Rongrong asked. You must know that in the past, that is, in the old society period, women were not qualified to participate in major events such as ancestor worship in ancestral halls, nor were they allowed to participate. Even women are not qualified to enter the ancestral hall.

However, with the development of the times, equality between men and women is now emphasized. Many activities that women could not participate in before can now be participated in. Now women can also enter the door of the ancestral hall, and after death, they can also put their spiritual cards in the ancestral hall.

Of course, women can also participate in this kind of ancestral worship activity. So Ye Rongrong was not worried that his wife and Ye Shuting could not go, but worried that Ma Lin could not go. After all, she was not named Ye and did not belong to Ye's ancestral hall.

"It's not a problem, but if you have more money, you will have to pay more."

Ye Xiang said. Today's ancestral halls are not as strict as before, and there is no objection to outsiders, but the money is indispensable.

"How much?" Ye Rongrong asked.

"One hundred dollars for one person, eating at the ancestral hall at noon, the four of you will cost 400 yuan." Ye Xiang said.

"Okay, do you want to pay now?" Ye Rongrong asked.

"You can hand it over at lunch tomorrow." Ye Xiang said.

"How to go tomorrow?"

Ye Rongrong asked, after all, Ye Rongyao has been to Ye's ancestral hall several times, and it is far from Taoyuan Village, half an hour's drive away.

"We will gather at the village ancestral hall at 7:30 tomorrow morning. If there is a car, we will drive over. It's enough for everyone to squeeze in. If it is not enough, the village even called a van, and basically everyone can sit down."

Ye Xiang said. After all, there are very few people in the village now, only about 200 people. Tomorrow, some people who move out of the village will drive back to the village. You can take some people with you. In addition, some people in the village also have cars. Personally, a van is basically enough for the rest.

After all, not all people will attend the ancestral hall to worship their ancestors. Not counting those who have moved to live outside the village, there are only about 200 people in the village, and about 80 people are very good.

In fact, most of the people who want to go have been confirmed yesterday. Today, there are only three families left that have not been confirmed. Whether they go or not, it will not affect the arrangements made in the morning.

"Well, Fifth Grandpa, I know. Tomorrow we will gather at the village ancestral hall on time." Ye Rongyao nodded and said.

"That's it, I still have a few households to inform, let's go first." Seeing that Ye Rongrong had no problem, Ye Xianglai got up and left.

Most of the people left in the village are old people, and they are used to going to bed early. Before it's too late, Ye has asked the remaining two households. However, based on past experience, Ye has estimated that this year's ancestor worship will be honored. , the two families will not go.

"I'm going to worship my ancestors tomorrow, so I'll go back to the bedroom and lie down."

After sending the fifth grandfather Ye Xianglai out of the yard, Ye Rongrong said to Liu Qingqing's three daughters.

"Brother Glory, what time is it now, are you going to bed? Didn't you just sleep for a while?" Ma Lin looked at Ye Rongyao strangely and said. (To be continued.)
