Qin Xiang

The Gan family has a small population, and there are less than ten people who actually worshiped their master, including those like Shang Weiliao who worshiped the master, and adopted daughters like Yu'er.It's not as good as those big families, there are hundreds of descendants alone.

At dusk, in the wide courtyard, there is a long and wide table, on which the tablets of ancestors, ghosts and gods are placed.In front of the queue were dozens of bowls and dishes with all kinds of melons, fruits and meat dishes, which were plentiful and delicious, with full sincerity, but it took Gan Zhao and Yu'er a long time to prepare them all.A bonfire was lit in the center of the courtyard, dispelling the chill in the courtyard, and the fiery red light was reflected on everyone's faces, giving off an orange warmth.Everyone knelt down, and Gan Fei recited the sacrificial speech.Gan Fei knelt at the front, kneeling straight with his stomach full, his voice was loud and deafening.

The sacrificial words were written by Gan Luo in a day and revised repeatedly. The general meaning is that the ancestors and ghosts and gods come, please accept their sacrifices, and bless them with health and good luck.After reading the sacrificial speech, everyone kowtowed respectfully and never dared to be disrespectful to their ancestors, otherwise it would be a year of bad luck and they would have the chance to ask their ancestors for forgiveness in the next year.

Each person took a few bamboo joints and threw them into the bonfire, and some damp bamboo joints made a crackling sound as soon as they touched the flames, like music, very lively.And Gan Luo and the others, in such accompaniment, danced while singing chapters in the "Book of Songs".

The flames were reflected in Gan Luo's eyes, making his eyes even brighter. He twisted his body, fully displaying his strength and beauty. His voice was still so clear and resonant.He laughed and danced, and Yu'er also ran over and pulled Gan Luo to dance together.However, Yu'er, who became a monk halfway, is naturally not as natural and elegant as Gan Luo, who learned from childhood.

All the bamboo joints are burnt to ashes, and there is no more crackling sound. They will set up a pot on the fire and eat the sacrifices left by the ancestors, ghosts and gods, and be blessed.The bonfire gradually extinguished. In the silent night, this time the sacrifice was over. Gan Luo and Gan Fei were responsible for putting the ashes of the bonfire in the courtyard. The ashes were also blessed and could be used as town houses.

Yu'er brought a big urn and said with a smile: "My hometown always eats dumplings every time it's New Year's. I also made a big pot this time, let's eat together."

"It's the first time I've heard of this." Gan Fei picked up a white and fat dumpling, ate it in one bite, his eyes widened, "Mmm, it's delicious!"

"Uncle, you should eat more. These dumplings will bring in money. I wish you a lot of money and a prosperous business!" Yu'er said sweetly. with repetition.

"There is such a good meaning, I want to eat a few more bowls." Gan Fei Hulu took a few mouthfuls and stretched out the bowl.I am afraid that if I eat a few dollars less, I will earn less.

Ordinary people choose to worship their ancestors and ghosts at the end of winter, while the royal family will wait until early spring to worship their ancestors and ghosts.And not only members of the royal family, but even civil and military officials have to participate.In fact, the sacrifices of the Gan family are quite simple. It takes almost a day for a sacrifice of the royal family.

Their sacrifices not only ask their ancestors to bless themselves, but also ask their gods to bless this year with good weather and a stable and prosperous country.With so many demands, it is natural to pay more sacrifices.The members of the royal family surnamed Ying knelt on the ground densely. It was really an outstanding contribution made by the previous king of Qin who gave birth to more than 20 sons.

Originally, according to the previous example, after the worship, the children of the royal family would return to their fiefs and return to Xianyang in the coming year.But what was unexpected this time was that Qin Prince Chu actually expressed his love for his brothers with tears in his eyes, and he was not willing to let them leave, so the people from all walks of life headed by Lord Jinyang stayed in Xianyang indefinitely. Live under the watchful eye of Qin Prince Chu.

In fact, they wanted to say: "Brother Wang (brother), we really don't know each other well!" So many brothers grew up in the palace of Xianyang City, and only Ying Zichu had been the hostage of Zhao State for so many years. It's a joke to talk about brotherhood.

The other brothers would complain behind their backs, but Ying Zixi was the only one who was grateful and staged a brotherly love scene with Qin Wangzichu.

"Brother Wang, in fact, I have always missed you when I was in Jinyang. This time I have the opportunity to stay in Xianyang. I really..." Jinyang Jun Ying Zixi was speechless, and he covered his mouth and wept silently , his face flushed with embarrassment, as if he felt that he was very shy in front of Brother Wang.

Ying Zichu was so sore that his teeth ached, and he said tearfully, "Zi Xi, I miss you very much as a brother, and I think it will take a year before we see each other again. It's as if my heart has been ripped out." , that hurts."

"..." Ying Zheng maintained his expressionless and respectful posture, as if his face would not change even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him.He misses Gan Luo very much now, come back quickly and wash his eyes.If it was him who would never be able to act in such a drama, Ying Zheng admired his father and uncle Wang even more.

With such resentment, within a few days after the ancestor worship and ghost sacrifice, Ying Zheng urged Gan Luo to return to the palace again and again.If Gan Fei goes out to do business, Gan Zhao and Yu'er don't feel much, but if Gan Luo is snatched away, the two women will immediately turn into tigresses and protect the calf fiercely.Thanks to Ying Zheng's perseverance that most people don't have, he didn't lose the slightest bit in the face of the two women.

Gan Luo still has the status of a companion, even if he can't stay at home for a few days, he still has to go back to the palace.Spring is here, the weather is getting warmer and warmer, and the clothes on everyone's bodies have become lighter and lighter. The vibrant spring seems to make people smile a lot more.

It's just...it's too exaggerated for Meng Wu to laugh like this.He grinned so wide that the back molars could be seen, and he would let out a silly laugh from time to time, which made people get goosebumps all over his body. He didn't have his usual steady and kind appearance.Ying Zheng couldn't help but ask him what happened.

"Hey, that, Yu'er and I are engaged, and we will get married on an auspicious day in two months. Haha." Meng Wu's dark face turned red, but he couldn't help but shiver.

Gan Luo knew that sister Yu'er and Meng Wu seemed to be getting closer when he was not at home, but what he didn't expect was that the two got engaged so soon.Thinking that in the future, sister Yu'er's meals will be eaten by Meng Wu, the clothes she sew will be worn by Meng Wu, and the soft and warm hugs will also be given to Meng Wu, the sour bubbles in Gan Luo's heart It's about to overflow.

Yu'er is very important to Gan Luo, and it is really hard to accept the news that the two are about to separate suddenly.He struggled for a while, finally grabbed Meng Wu's arm, raised his head and said, "Come here, let's have a good fight."

"What? I won't fight with you. If my daughter-in-law finds out, she will definitely pull my ears." What Gan Luo didn't know was that since he entered the palace, if Yu'er wanted to know about her precious brother, Meng Wu this channel, so the two have a lot of opportunities to communicate.Although Meng Wu is just a simple and honest general who doesn't understand sweet words, he gradually moved Yu'er with his sincerity.After the two agreed that there would never be a third woman after marriage, Yu'er decisively decided that she wanted this good man, so she should hurry up to get engaged, so as not to have long nights and dreams.

Naturally, Meng Wu knew how much his wife loved Gan Luo, his baby brother. The relationship between the two siblings was so good that Yu'er was almost ready to marry Gan Luo.Thinking of this, Meng Wu wanted to beat someone up, but he couldn't beat up his brother-in-law, which was really contradictory.

"There's so much nonsense, aren't you a man?! If you are a man, fight me well, otherwise I won't trust you to hand over Sister Yu'er to you." Gan Luo glanced at Meng Wu contemptuously as he spoke. With a sneering face, it seemed that he disliked the other party for being so big in vain, so it turned out that it was useless.

Meng Wu looked down at Gan Luo condescendingly, his fists were clenched and his veins bulged, and he said, "I knew you kid had bad intentions for Yu'er! Well, I'll fight with you, you can't Sue Yu'er and say that I bully the small with the big." Meng Wu was quite imposing at first, but the last sentence still exposed the future family status of the Meng family.It is estimated that the status of their family members will be arranged in this way in the future, Yu'er is the boss, the children of the two are the second and third children, Meng Meng and Da Huang are next, and the rough man Meng Wu is the top of the food chain The lowest level has always been oppressed and has never been surpassed.

Gan Luo was amused by Meng Wu's words. He suppressed his smile and said seriously: "Don't worry, whoever sues is rhubarb. Let's go to the martial arts field. There are no activities here." As for the old master who was waiting to teach , was directly forgotten by several people.

Meng Wu strode ahead to open the way, and short-legged Gan Luo and Ying Zheng followed behind.

Ying Zheng lowered his head and asked Gan Luo, "Can you do it alone? How about I help you later?" In Ying Zheng, Gan Luo was many years younger than Meng Wu, and his strength and martial arts were definitely not as good as being beaten by Meng Ao when he was young. Meng Wu, who was struggling to survive, had almost no chance of winning.

Meng Wu staggered a bit, he knew that the prince no longer had him in his heart, it was really heartbreaking.He used to be the prince's right-hand man? !

"No, bro, don't interfere later, I want to teach him alone, let him snatch sister Yu'er away, hum!" Gan Luo moved his hands and feet, staring at Meng Wu closely.

In fact, he himself knows that he has no advantage. If he fights with strength alone, he will definitely lose, and he will also be beaten, which is really not worth the candle.However, the terrain of the martial arts arena is complicated, and if it is used well, it is not without strength.
