Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    On the morning of the second day of junior high school, Wu Yue had breakfast and went online in the room.  Today, most men in the ancient city are busy with the same thing, and he is also waiting.  "Xiao Yue, let's go." Wu Yue looked at the time and said, "It's only nine o'clock." Wu's father standing at the door said, "Your third uncle and the others are already waiting downstairs. Your second uncle is looking for them.  Xiang Gong has also returned to the village. He went back early to take a look. " "Oh. " Wu Yue didn't ask about these things. Hearing what his father said, he could only get up and walk out of the bedroom.  Seeing her mother sitting on the sofa watching TV and not showing any signs of leaving, she asked, "Mom, aren't you going back?" Wu Mu shook her head and said, "No, your second and third aunts will come over later." According to the ancient market rules  According to custom, women cannot worship ancestors.  "Oh, let's go then." "Yeah." Wu Yue followed his father out of the door. There were already two bodyguards waiting in the corridor. When they saw the two people coming out, they protected them as they went downstairs.  Wu Yue only kept ten bodyguards for the New Year, and the rest were given leave. Of course, the ten people on duty also received a red envelope.  "Brother, we're down." Uncle Wu Yue and his father and son were standing downstairs. When they saw Wu Yue and his son coming downstairs, they came up to greet them.  Father Wu is the eldest. Of course, there are many people of the same clan who are older than him, but they are younger than Father Wu. Now they all call him Big Brother Wu Fu after his second uncle and third uncle Wu Yue.  Wu Yue¡¯s dad nodded to everyone and said, ¡°Well, let¡¯s go.¡± Wu Yue walked behind Wu Yue¡¯s dad and found his dad who used to be a little hunchbacked.  My back is much straighter now.  Father Wu also worked as a coal miner when he was young. There was basically no mechanization in that era, and mining was done with explosives.  When the coal is blasted, it must be pulled out using a flat cart.  When Wu Yue and Wu Jing were young, they often looked forward to their father bringing back some twists and eggs after get off work.  When I grew up, I realized that it was my father¡¯s lunch at work, because it took a long time to go down the mine and the workload was heavy.  If they don't eat something, the workers won't have the energy to work, but dad brings them back almost every day.  At that time, Wu Yue and Wu Jing were ignorant.  Sometimes when I see my dad come back empty-handed, I will ask him why he didn¡¯t have anything to eat today, and my dad will definitely bring it back to them the next day.  Thinking of what happened when he was a child, Wu Yue couldn't help but shed tears in his eyes.     Father as a mountain.  Fortunately, he never let his father down.  After rebirth.  It makes my parents extremely proud.  It¡¯s not easy for dad, and it¡¯s even harder for grandpa.  When she was in her thirties, her grandmother passed away. She raised Wu Yue¡¯s father and three brothers by herself, and she died of illness without much happiness.  When Wu Yue was a child, he loved listening to his grandfather telling stories about the older generation the most, and he was also his grandfather¡¯s most beloved grandson.  Grandpa told him before that what he hopes most in his life is to see Wu Yue succeed and listen to people say a few words.  His grandson has a future.  It¡¯s a pity that my grandfather got cancer and passed away when Wu Yue was just in college. Otherwise, he would have been very happy to see Wu Yue¡¯s achievements now.  Wu Yue blinked hard.  Letting go of the tears, he walked quickly to the Bentley. Before the bodyguard on the other side came around to open the door, he pulled away and got in.  Uncle Wu Yue got into the Porsche he bought before. Other people of the same clan drove their own cars, and those who didn¡¯t got into the Wu Yue family¡¯s Hummer.  After the three black Hummers drove out, the Bentley followed, followed by three white Hummers, a Porsche driven by Uncle Wu Yue and cars driven by people from the same clan.  After the car started, Wu's father asked: "Xiaoyue, how is your fund?" Wu Yue said lightly: "It's good, I can share more than 40 billion." Although I heard from the news that his son has recently  He made a lot of money again, but when he heard Wu Yue say more than 40 billion, Wu Yue still looked at Wu Yue in disbelief and said: "So much?" Wu Yue explained: "Now there is more money and the market is good, so it is easier to make money.  "Father Wu said: "It's good to make money, but you have to be careful. Those who give you money are rich people. It doesn't matter if you make money, but if you lose, someone may cause trouble."  Dad's temperament was submissive and he said: "Well, when you can't understand it, I won't do it." "Your second uncle and I want to build an ancestral hall, how about you come back and come up with an idea?" Father Wu originally said  I already had an idea, but after hearing that my son had made more than 40 billion in such a short period of time, I felt that the previous design was a bit stingy.  Wu Yue smiled and said: "You can just do this, I don't understand either."Dad, don¡¯t worry about money. The fund will be settled in a few days, and I will give you another billion.  I plan to increase the investment in the romantic city in Hainan Province to 50 billion. With my current influence, I will definitely make it the most popular scenic spot, film and television base, and high-end resort in China.  Even if I don¡¯t run a fund in the future, our family will definitely not be short of money.  " Wu Yue's parents also knew about the Romantic City, but they thought Wu Yue really built it for Meng Tong alone. Although they thought it was too extravagant, Wu Yue made all the money, so they couldn't tell. "  Wu Yue also had the purpose of investment and said happily: "Well, this is good. Once it is built, the next few generations will be rich.  " Having said this, Father Wu frowned and asked, "By the way, have you and Xiaotong talked about having a baby?  " Wu Yue knew what his father meant and said with a smile: "I told you to ask for it in two years. I'm only twenty-three.  Don't worry, I will definitely give you a grandchild. If one doesn't work, just have two. If two don't work, just have three.  " "That's good, you have to have a son whether you have money or not, otherwise there will be no more people to visit the grave in the future.  " A stone fell from Father Wu's heart. He was completely satisfied with Meng Tong, but he was a little worried about this. He was afraid that Meng Tong would give birth to a daughter and would not want to have another daughter in the future. After all, Meng Tong's background was different from others. If  Persisting in giving birth is also a problem. Speaking of the cemetery, Wu Yue also thought of his grandfather and asked: "Dad, are you ready to rebuild my grandfather's cemetery?"  " "Well, I also discussed it with your second uncle and third uncle.  Go back and ask someone to take a look.  " "Look back and see if we can take over all the land on that mountain and let people plant trees.  " Father Wu really never thought of such a big deal. The hilltop is not small. Although there are not many people farming in the village, there are many people who own the land. It is also troublesome to buy it. "Well, I'll look back.  Let your second uncle ask about this matter.  " The father and son chatted for half an hour, and then the convoy returned to the village. " This village is where Wu Yue was born, but it is not the place where Wu's father was born. Wu's father was born in a more remote village with barren land and no coal mines.  When Wu's father was very young, Grandpa Wu Yue moved to this village with his three sons and some of his clansmen. The village where Wu's father was born was called Wujiacun. The village had only one surname, and the villagers were all called by the same clan.  Fadu is a father and son. The village where Wu Yue was born is a large village. There are several surnames for the father and son in the village, and there are even more scattered surnames. When Wujia Village was moved, a considerable number of people moved to this village.  Therefore, the Wu surname is also a common surname in this village. However, the population is still not as large as the two surnames in this village. The coal mines in the village were also occupied by these two surnames. In the past few years, the coal mines were contracted to the tribe at low prices. Later, the prices of coal mines increased, and there were many ancient markets.  The collective coal mine in the village became personal, and the coal mine in this village was sold to the family in the village at a low price. A billionaire was born directly, and several villagers with foreign surnames such as Wu Yue were given 5,000 yuan each.  Things in the village are darker than those in the coal mine. Except for some memories from his childhood, Wu Yue spent money to become a village cadre and then used his power to vacate the collective coal mine.  The state-owned coal mine wants to put some benefits into his pocket. Wu Yue has a greater sense of belonging to the ancient city than to the village where he was born. The convoy is still a short distance away from the family tree. According to the custom, who can hear the sound of beating.  If a family married a daughter-in-law or gave birth to a son last year, the family tree this year will be in whose family the family tree is. If there are many people getting married or having sons at the same time, we will have to discuss it. If there is no such happy event, the family tree will be in the family where it was last year or the family you want to have it in.  It is almost impossible for anyone to hang out. Usually six or seven people are hired for weddings and gatherings in the ancient city. The main musical instruments are suona, gongs, drums, cymbals, etc.  In 2016, some Western bass drums, electronic keyboards and amplification equipment were added. Due to fierce competition, many sound workers added singers. Of course, these singers are usually female. Of course, these singers are not professional singers, and they are not even as good as some regular singers.  People who go to KTV to sing can attract a lot of people as long as they look good. The cost of wedding is also very expensive. Generally, it takes two days to get married. The cheapest ones cost four to five thousand, and the better ones cost more than ten thousand.  Food and accommodation are included, and a cigarette is required for each person. Because it is expensive, most families do not pay for ancestor worship. Occasionally, some wealthy people will pay for the two dishes this year.  Yes. Father Wu and the bodyguard came here to deliver tributes before, so the bodyguard knows the way.p;The car stopped and Wu Yue and his father got out of the car.  The tributes for ancestor worship were delivered a year ago, and today I brought burned paper and fireworks. Because there was a problem of comparison between several surnames, Father Wu bought 100,000 cannons at the instigation of his second uncle Wu Yue.  "I'm back, brother, Wu Yue." People in the yard also came out when they saw the convoy outside.  It was Wu Yue¡¯s second uncle who was in his forties. He was wearing a gray-white suit and his hair was neatly combed.  Second Uncle Wu Yue was a popular figure before, but now he is even more proud of himself. Wherever he goes, others call him "Second Brother".  "Well, Uncle Qing is here!" Father Wu greeted the people who came out to greet him. When he saw the elders, he went up to greet them.  "Second uncle." Wu Yue also greeted his second uncle.  The fathers and sons in other cars also got off, carrying their own paper and cannons.  Uncle Wu Yue shouted to the bodyguard who opened the trunk: "Our cannon doesn't need to be moved down. Just fire it here and it will ring on the bridge in a while."  To show off.  Although Wu Yue felt that he no longer had to compete with anyone, he would not stop him from doing what his father wanted to do.  As soon as you enter the door, you will see a three- to four-meter high fire, surrounded by iron shelves and filled with coal in the middle. It was lit on New Year's Eve and has not been burned out until now.  This is also the custom here. Every household in the village has a prosperous fire.  In the urban area, there is one downstairs.  There was also a big fire piled downstairs at Wu Yue's house, but it was only about one meter high and not much coal was used.  Uncle Wu Yue smiled at Wu Yue and said: "I asked someone to bring a cart of coal to his house. When it was first built, it was more than five meters high, but now it has collapsed a lot." In front of Wanghuo, there are two plates of work.  , there is a pretty-looking middle-aged woman in every set of xiangong, and there are very few young people who can be xiangong singers. ?????????????????????????? It seems that when Uncle Wu Yue was looking for a singing job, his first consideration was to be able to sing well, not to play well.  The person hanging the family tree also came out and said to Wu Yue and his son, "Here we come. Come and sit at home." Wu's father nodded and said, "Okay." "Dad, I'm going to look at the family tree." Wu Yue and the people from this father and son's family  I'm not familiar with it, and I don't want to go in.  Second Uncle Wu Yue pointed to a family on the side and said: "Yes. The family tree is in this family. I will bring you here." "Yes." Wu Yue followed his second uncle into a house on the side. When he opened the door, he saw a hanging hanging inside.  family tree.  In front of the family tree is a large wooden board.  Placed in front are the tributes placed by each family.  Cakes, fruits and the like.  The family tree hanging on the wall is a painting with a length and width of more than two meters. The top is the two brothers of the Wu family. During the Qing Dynasty, because the original village had no land, the brothers moved to the remote Wujia Village to marry and have children.  It was passed down from generation to generation, and Wu Yue's generation was the sixteenth generation.  There are hundreds of fathers and sons from the tribe alone who can come to worship their ancestors.  Uncle Wu Yue said: "Because we have money, people who have moved to other counties have also come here this year. There are still a few people who want to move to the ancient city. Let's see if we can help them." Wu Yue nodded:  "Well, you told my dad later, help out those who are in trouble." Second Uncle Wu Yue saw that Wu Yue was so easy to talk to, not as powerful as his sister-in-law said before, so he added: "Some fathers and sons are relatively poor.  I can't afford a house in the city. When low-rent housing is built in the city, can I give them some housing?" Wu Yue walked to the family tree, looked at his grandfather's name, shook his head and said, "Low-rent housing belongs to the government.  , We don¡¯t need that money. Later, you and my dad can buy a piece of land in the city and build a few buildings. The father and son want to share one property with each other.¡± Wu Yue originally didn¡¯t consider these distant relatives, but he came here.  Here, looking at the names written down from generation to generation on the family tree, I can¡¯t help but feel emotional. After all, they are all from the same clan.  "Which one is our tribute?" The second uncle who was a little shocked by Wu Yue heard Wu Yue's question and quickly pointed to the three plates in the front and said: "These are our family's." Wu Yue leaned over.  Pick off some of the tributes on your own plate and throw them in the direction of the family tree to honor your ancestors and place all the things on the plate next to each other.  Wu Yue then walked outside.  After leaving the yard, Wu Yue did not enter the house and started chatting with his third uncle's cousin.  Being bored, I took a popular photo with my mobile phone and uploaded it to Weibo.  Wu Yue¡¯s cousin Wu Peng is five years younger than Wu Yue. He is just eighteen this year and is a bit naive. After graduating from junior high school, he went to coal school. Wu Yue¡¯s third uncle planned to spend money to become a worker in a state-owned coal mine. Wu YueAfter becoming prosperous, Wu Peng no longer wanted to be a worker, so he simply stopped going to the coal school and followed Uncle Wu Yue to do some things for Wu's father.  At eleven o'clock, Wu's father came out of the house with a few old people, and then the person with the highest seniority walked into the house and began to worship.  Wu Yue's seniority is a bit low. The person with the highest seniority is four times higher than him. Wu's father always calls him "Master".  The worship service began, and all the Wu family members knelt on the ground.  Wu Yue didn't care about soiling his pants, so he could only kneel down behind with Wu Peng.  Starting from the highest-ranking person, two or two people avoid drinking wine. After each memorial ceremony, the clan elder who presides over the ceremony shouts: "Kowtow." The father and son kneeling in the yard will kowtow along with them.  When it was Wu Yue¡¯s turn, he had already kowtowed more than a hundred times with the people in front of him, and it was still one-on-one before.  When it came to Wu Yue's generation, Wu Yue's second uncle said to Wu Yue: "You and Pengpeng should go to pay homage first." "Oh." Wu Yue stood up and entered the room where the family tree was hung with his cousin.  Kneeling in front of the chopping board where the sacrifices were placed, Wu Yue picked up the wine bottle and poured wine for his cousin. The cousin sprinkled the wine in front of him, added incense and burned paper. After completing the ceremony, the two of them knelt in front again.  The clan elder shouted: "Kowtow." Wu Yue and his cousin kowtowed obediently. They kowtowed with others for a long time, and this time it was the turn of the people outside to kowtow with them.  Wu Yue¡¯s seniority is really a bit young, and there are not many children behind them.  Soon all the memorial services were over.  ?Then it¡¯s time to fire off the cannons.  It crackled for more than ten minutes, and then the people from the Wu family walked towards the village carrying the tributes and the remaining cannons.  Not everyone will come to the village to shoot off cannons. If two families have more cannons, they will have to take the lead. After one family fires off the cannons, the other will do so.  This year, the Wu family has a big boss, and he is very generous. Several surnames in the village did not dare to compete with the Wu family. They just set off a cannon at the place where they hang their family trees, and did not come to the village head bridge to set up the family tree.  It is said to be the head of the village, but in fact it should be regarded as the center of the village. On one side of the bridge is the township government and on the other side is the village committee. Of course, there are many villagers on both sides.  When many people in the village saw the Wu family¡¯s team coming down, they gathered around the bridge to watch.  Uncle Wu Yue commanded Wu Yue¡¯s six Hummers to park on the bridge and unload the boxes of cannons from the trunk. Then the bodyguards drove the car away from this dangerous place to prevent the falling cannons from blowing up the car.  The Wu family father and son unpacked the cannons and placed them on the bridge.  The cannons bought by Father Wu were enough to hold a small fireworks show, and they were placed several times on a bridge dozens of meters long without being fully displayed.  And these cannons are high-noise cannons such as thunder, not fireworks performed at night.  "Boom" "Boom" When dozens of fathers and sons lit the cannon together, loud noises began to hit people's eardrums.  Wu Yue watched outside for a few seconds before running towards the Bentley parked in the distance. Setting off a cannon like this would be fatal.  Half an hour later, all the cannons on the bridge were fired, and the smoke from the cannons merged into one in the air.  At noon, the Wu family and his son had another meal at a restaurant in the village, which was the end of their ancestor worship.  In the past, we didn¡¯t have this kind of meal. We would go back to our own homes, and those from other villages would go to the home of the father and son who were closely related by blood. In short, no one would take care of the food for so many people.  This year, Father Wu invited all the clan members to dinner.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster! ps: (This chapter has 5,000 words, so the update is a little late, so I will make up for 2,000 words.
