There are five earth buildings standing on the misty seaside. The earth buildings in the middle are stacked on top of each other, which is spectacular. There are four earth buildings in the southeast, northwest and northwest guarding it. Nanzhou earth buildings have a long history and have gone through many vicissitudes. Too old. At this time, in the largest house in the earthen building in the middle, every man, woman, old and young was wearing hemp and mourning, and sad music echoed inside, making people cry. This is a funeral lament, and it is also a mourning song for the deceased. The voices of loved ones.
Le Lang sat in the car and stopped at the earth building. He got out of the car and looked at the towering walls. He couldn't help but feel a sense of being close to home. He was born here, and he had a beautiful childhood memory here. Now that he comes back, everything has become a thing of the past, which makes people sigh.
It has been more than 20 years, and I have not been back for more than 20 years. Except for the building wall that is still standing, the rest has been completely changed. Looking at the curious eyes of everyone, no one knows him, and he does not know anyone else. It's been so many years since I was a child. I no longer know my relatives, and even if I did, I probably wouldn't remember their names.
Lelang took a look and saw that there were many people coming to the funeral, and he didn't know anyone, so he walked into the house. Although he hadn't returned for a long time, the memory here was still in his mind. Inside, women were busy cutting linen mourning cloths to make linen mourning scarves, and some were carrying ten-cent packages, all busy preparing things for the funeral. In another room, something was being cooked, lunchtime meals for the mourners.
He continued to walk inside. He was his grandson. According to the ceremony, he was going to kowtow and kneel down to send the old man on his way. He met Hai Long on the way. Hai Long saw that he had nothing, so he took him to get the linen mourning scarf, and then took him inside. .
Our country has been a land of etiquette since ancient times, and people have been accompanied by etiquette since they were born. In ancient times, when people gave birth to a child, they would worship heaven and earth and thank God for giving them children; when they grew up, they would have a crown ceremony to show their adulthood; when they got married, they would have a wedding ceremony to show their adulthood; when they died, there would be a funeral ceremony to show their mourning and honor. .
Etiquette is actually a type of virtue. Observing etiquette and respecting virtues are the norms of behavior of the ancients. Only by keeping these in your heart will you not lose track. Look at today, there are fewer and fewer people who observe etiquette and respect for morality, and there are more and more shameless people, which has led to this society being in chaos.
The funeral was a busy day, and everyone dispersed around nine o'clock in the evening. Seeing that it was getting late and unable to go back, Le Lang had to stay at Hai Long's house for one night. Originally, he thought that the funeral would take several days, but he didn't expect that it would be done in one day.
I haven¡¯t been back to Tulou for more than 20 years. The changes here have been great. The rich people in Tulou have built houses outside. Not far from the Tulou, there is a new village, which is newly planned. It is connected to Zongheng and has complete infrastructure. It is very popular with the residents living here, so many people living in the Tulou have moved out. Hai Long and his family also intend to move out. After all, the earth building cannot be moved around. If they move out, not only will the house be bigger, but the place will be spacious. And the house was built by oneself. It can have as many floors as you want. It¡¯s so comfortable.
"Alang, uncle is looking for you." Lelang was chatting with Shaoqing in the room when he heard Hailong barking outside.
"Got it." Le Lang responded, quickly ended the call with Shaoqing and walked out.
Lelang's father has seven brothers, his father is the eldest, and Abo, whom Hailong calls, is the second eldest, his second uncle. His second uncle is already over fifty years old. Now his temples are gray and he looks very old. After his grandfather died, the leadership of the Le clan fell on him. He had to deal with many things every day and was under a lot of pressure.
"Second uncle," Le Lang called to his second uncle sitting on the federal chair. We haven't seen each other for many years, so when we met again we were a little friendly, but the so-called blood relationship has long been indifferent and has become a bit strange.
"Are you used to living here?" Lelang and his second uncle asked him with concern.
"Habit, Hai Long's family is good." Le Lang said to Hai Long with a smile.
"Of course, Hai Long has opened a tea shop in the city and made a lot of money."
"No matter how little, it's not as good as Ah Rong working in the government." Ah Rong is the son of Lelang's second uncle. He likes people to praise his son. He laughs with joy when he hears people praise his son.
"Haha, it's not like we are just getting a salary and have no future. It's better for Lelang. I heard that he opened a winery and the business is very good." Lelang and his second uncle said to Lelang with a smile.
"They are not the same, they all make money to eat." Le Lang said modestly.
The few of them chatted for a while, and then Uncle Lelang took out a briefcase next to him, which contained a lot of things.
"Alang, this is the title deed of your house. Your grandfather has been keeping it for you. In addition to the earth building, your grandfather also left you a two-acre land in the new village. You can go and see it yourself. You can build a house there, and it will be easy to come back and live in the future.?, the land in your family is still the same as before, but I lent it to you Abo Zhong. If you want it, I will ask him to return the land to you. "Le Lang and his second uncle handed Le Lang a stack of things in his hand.
"No, I don't need it either, so I just let him plant it. It's just that the land deeddidn't my dad not have it at that time?" Le Lang took it and looked at it. It was nothing more than some descriptions of the land deed and real estate. He remembered that he It seems that there was no land deed when my father arrived in Xiaoxi Village.
"The family hadn't been separated at that time. Your father left without saying anything. Your grandfather left it for you when he was leaving."
They made tea for a while and chatted for a while, and then Lelang and his second uncle left.
Back in the room, Le Lang couldn't help but fell into deep thought. There were bad things about his grandfather, but it was rare and valuable to think about this blood relationship in the past. Although he didn't know why his father never returned to Tulou back then, no matter what, no matter how much resentment a person dies, it will be dissipated with the wind!
The next morning, Lelang got up early and walked around the earthen buildings. After not returning for a long time, I touched the walls and wooden pillars in the earth building and felt that everything was engraved with the mark of time. Scenes of past events passed through my mind, including laughter and tears, which were the deepest memories in my heart.
I walked around the earth building and walked up the stairs along the central axis in the middle of the earth building. This road is called Gongde Road. There are various stone tablets on both sides of the road. The stone tablets are full of words. This is called Gongde Road. It records which dynasty and generation so-and-so did something powerful for the clan, or when a person took the exam and became famous and honored the ancestor. Everything is clearly engraved on it so that future generations can remember it.
At the top is a five-cornered pavilion. In the middle of the pavilion stands a large black stone, with the word "Lelang" written in ancient seal script on the stone.
It is said that the Le clan was originally from the ancient Lelang country. Later, due to the war in the country, the country was destroyed, and the people of this clan had to fly across the sea to escape here. When I first arrived here, ferocious beasts were everywhere, miasma was everywhere, and the indigenous barbarians were ferocious and tough, so they had to build forts to protect themselves. This is how Lejiabao became today.
The people who came from Lelang Kingdom were not originally named Le, but after they came here, they took Guo as their surname. The word "Lang" in Lelang is actually a character in the Le family's seniority. The Le family's seniority is "the day of the universe. Moon, stars, forest, trees, waves, waves." And Lelang is the last and second word "lang". He is the first person in this generation, so he took the word "lang" without a name after it.
Lelang stood in the pavilion, looking at the stone tablet, and what he touched in his hands was full of history. Looking up into the distance, blue microwaves shone on the sea in the distance. When I was young, I was ignorant. I heard an old man say that in ancient times, when the tide receded, people could cross Taiwan by stepping on the lid of a pot. At that time, he was so stupid that when he heard what others said, he actually took out the wooden pot lid from home and swam to the other side when the tide receded. It was then that he met Ling'er.
????????????????????????????????????????????Re Thinking about it now, he was really ignorant and fearless at that time. If it weren't for his luck, he would probably have become the excrement of a fish in the sea by now.
Standing on a high place, surrounded by the sea breeze, Le Lang looked at it, then turned and walked down. This place was no longer his home. It was full of unfamiliar feelings. It was impossible for him to come back, but the area of ??about two acres was You can go check out the land and build a house when the time comes. You can live there when you and your wife go out to play in the future.
