Chapter 340

After the sacrificial ceremony in the ancestral temple, each of the people had to wash their face and hands. The principal asked the men to take some fruits, food, meat, tobacco, wine, tea and other goods, all paper money and paper goods to the carriage for the purpose of going to the grave.

"Brother glory, I was silly to listen to the sacrifice just now. The sacrifice words are too good and talented." Walking out of the gate of the ancestral hall, Ma Lin said.

"This is from the heart. Besides, these old people, although they haven't studied in any university, are better than us young people, college students and doctoral students in the essence of Chinese culture." Ye Rongrong said.

In fact, the real reason, in the final analysis, lies in education. The older generation, that is, before the sixties and seventies of the last century, in China, what we attach most importance to is China's own culture. All foreign cultures are seriously excluded.

Although this kind of exclusion is wrong, it allows the essence of Chinese culture to be passed down from generation to generation. Scholars in the past paid attention to piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Basically, people with a little culture can do this.

But not now. More than ten years ago, the state put foreign language education at a higher level than Mandarin education. If you fail in foreign language, you can't even get a bachelor's degree, and vigorously promote foreign culture.

As a result, Chinese culture has been squeezed out of living space by western culture. The old people in the past can write with a brush and write a good article.

Today's young people can't do it, not to mention the few who can write brush words, but the pen words are all crooked, writing articles, sometimes words don't match sentences.

These are not the most important. The most important thing is that these traditional Chinese customs and cultures are gradually lost in the young generation. Few young Chinese people remember the traditional Chinese festivals, and we all remember the western festivals very well.

Fortunately, in recent years, the country has realized the seriousness of the problem and added several Chinese traditional festivals, so that young people will not forget that there are still such traditional festivals in China and the traditional significance of these festivals.

"It's true. The old people were really good at learning." Liu Qingqing agrees with her man.

"Brother glory, where are we going now?" Ma Lin asked.

"Now let's go to the grave." Ye Rongrong said.

……

After a few people got on the bus, after a few minutes, the car in front of them started to drive, followed by a gun saluting car. Every time they drove a certain distance, the gun saluting car would fire a gun salute, telling the people around them that the Ye family was worshipping their ancestors.

In addition to the gun salute car, the ancestral temple also invited a band. In the middle of the motorcade, there were several singers singing songs, which made the whole sacrifice very lively.

Ye Rongrong doesn't know when this kind of band began to rise in this area of coco. Anyway, in recent years, many people invite this kind of band to play music, sing songs and invite a new band. It costs about three or a thousand yuan a day.

"Husband, what do you need to pay attention to when you go to the ancestral grave?" Liu Qingqing looks at Ye Guangrong and asks.

"There are a few taboos." Ye Rongrong thought about it and said.

"What are the taboos?" Liu Qingqing asked.

"First, don't go to too remote places. It's easy to cause evil spirits. This is because there are many tombs on the top of the mountain, and the Yin Qi is heavy."

"The second is that when you meet a grave on the way, you should be respectful. You can't touch the tombstone with your feet. It's best to be more serious and solemn. Don't take a picture of the grave with your mobile phone. It's taboo. There's nothing else."

Ye Rongrong said. This is what the elders in the village said when they went to sweep the grave with their father. Ye Guangrong has always remembered it.

More than 200 vehicles of the motorcade lined up in a long line to the direction of Meiyuan Town, causing a lot of traffic jams along the way.

But in this way, the traffic police have no way. In the first month, there are a lot of motorcades worshiping ancestors. They are all mighty. As long as there are no illegal traffic rules, the traffic police can't stop them.

Of course, I dare not stop people from worshiping their ancestors for no reason. A large ancestral hall with tens of thousands of people is easy to cause mass incidents, and the government is also afraid.

After driving for about an hour, the motorcade finally arrived at a place called Wangjia village in Meiyuan Town, where the ancestral Tomb of Ye's ancestral temple is.

This Wangjia village, hundreds of years ago, is really a real Wangjia village. The people in a village all have the surname of Wang. However, since the ancestor worshipped by Ye's ancestral hall settled the ancestral tomb here, half of the people in this village have the surname of Ye.

In ancient times, people attached great importance to geomantic omen, especially the geomantic omen of ancestral tombs, because in the eyes of the ancients, only good geomantic omen of ancestral tombs could protect the children and grandchildren from prosperity.

Ye Guangrong heard from the old people in the village that the ancestor of Ye's ancestral hall asked the geomantic master to find a tomb for him after he resigned and returned home. Fortunately, he can be buried in this geomantic treasure land in a hundred years to protect the prosperity of future generations.

After five years of searching for acupoints, the geomantic master found two geomantic treasures for Ye's ancestors. One is Wangjia village here, and the other is Xiaodan village in Hexi Town.The first ancestor was very satisfied with the two pieces of land and couldn't bear to give up any of them. So the first ancestor made a difficult decision, that is, to buy the two mountains. The first ancestor and his wife were buried separately one hundred years later to protect their children's prosperity.

After buying the land, the ancestor asked him to choose two of his seven sons. One asked him to move his family to Wangjia village, and the other to Xiaodan village. The purpose was to protect the ancestral graves. These two branches were called "mountain owners".

With the change of time, the population of Ye family is more and more vigorous, and now it is divided into many small branches, and the population is more and more.

However, people will never forget their ancestors and their origins. Every year, they will visit their graves and pray for their ancestors' spirits.

After parking the car, ye Rongrong got out of the car, followed the crowd and went to the top of the mountain in front of him. The top of the mountain was neither high nor big, but the outside shape of the mountain was like the head raised by a swimming red dragon. It had both shape and spirit, and looked east. Although it was not a real place of Dragon Cave, it was also an excellent place of geomantic omen.

In the past, there were only the ancestral tombs of Ye's ancestral hall on the whole mountain. However, with the change of times, the deed of land hundreds of years ago will no longer be recognized. Therefore, many tombs can be seen on the whole mountain. These are tombs of other surnames.

Who wants this place to be a treasure land of geomancy? Many people like this place. If the current government did not allow the construction of such private tombs, there would be more tombs on this mountain.

Ye Rongrong and others followed the crowd up the mountain. The ancestors of Ye's ancestral hall and the tombs of several Tai people were in the middle of the mountain, which was the best location for fengshui of the whole hill.
