Cartoonist's Dream

Chapter 181: Ancestral Worship During the Qingming Festival

Limu's years of experience in returning to his hometown to worship his ancestors also told him——

It’s best to wear clothes that you don’t often wear, don’t like to wear, or are about to throw away when you go back to your hometown. Otherwise, if you go out to climb a mountain and ruin your favorite new clothes, you will feel distressed to death.

You have to look at the ground when you walk. You might step on cow dung and win a big prize just after getting out of the car door.

Remember to bring a book or gb to have fun by yourself when you go out, it will be very chatty in the country.

Bring your own cup or mineral water, otherwise you can only use a greasy bowl to drink water. [

……

There are still many problems that need to be paid attention to. Seeing those uncles and aunts swarming over, Limu feels that this is the most urgent thing to solve.

"Li Mu, is he Li Mu!?" The caller pointed at him from afar.

I saw 11 people got off the side of the two cars at the entrance of the village.There are six elders, three children, plus a white-haired foreign woman and a stout black man. It is not difficult to distinguish people who fit the two characteristics of "11 years old" and "boy".

As soon as the man shouted, four young and middle-aged men immediately came to greet him from the ancestral house.At this time, compared with other family members who stayed in place, their closeness to the Li family in the city was obviously suspicious.

"Does Li Mu still remember your fifth brother?"

"How can I remember that the last time I saw you was when I was 8 years old."

"How can you not remember, the seventeenth brother is so smart, he has become a celebrity after seeing him for more than two years."

"You have to thank your ancestors when you go up the mountain later."

They rushed Li Mu and others into the village with one word at a time.

The village speaks Pinghua, which annoys Limu.

They have all spoken Pinghua for generations, but Limu is only fluent in Cantonese, vernacular, and Mandarin, and he can only say some incoherent words "Haifan" (eating) for the ups and downs of Pinghua.

Pinghua is not very fluent, but he can understand Pinghua.

In the lobby of the ancestral house, men and women sit together, and Li Mu is surrounded by scattered stools.

"At that time, I said that someone from our Li family was published in the newspaper, and your second brother insisted that it was not from our family."

"There are so many people with the same name and surname in the world, who knows if Li Cun went out."

The second brother and the third brother, to be precise, are Li Mu's second and third cousins.He is ten or 20 years older than Li Mu, and any child they have can beat Li Mu to the ground... In terms of seniority, Li Mu is called "Uncle".

"Hehe...hehe, how did you find out later." Li Mu said with a dry laugh.

"I heard it from Ximei. I heard it from my fourth aunt when I went to take the fruit last time. When I came back, I told us that it was still unclear. I took her to find the second brother on the spot. Afterwards, the news It spread so quickly in the village, Yang Village and Lei Village all know that we have produced another talented person..." the third brother said eloquently. [

The first capable person in the village is Grandpa Limu, who has studied in high school and college, and made a lot of money doing circuit development in the poor era.

As for who Ximei is, Limu is quite clear. She will go to the city twice a year, bringing a large bag of carambola, red bayberry, bean nian (called twisted or twisted seeds in the north), sweet potatoes and radishes.If you come to the city to live for two or three days, you will be "greedy" to stay an extra day after you sell the native chicken and duck.

The only person Limu is familiar with in the village is the teenage Ximei. After all, she comes to the house every year as a guest.Others, including the second and third brothers, are quite unfamiliar to him.There are really many branch families in the village. Grandpa Zeng seems to have married four wives, so there are at least a dozen branch families in the grandfather's generation.

Under the call of "more people, more power" in the red era, each generation gave birth to seven or eight children...Li Zhiyou only gave birth to four, which is considered a small number.In Li Mu's generation, the children of the second and third brothers are all about the same age as Li Mu, so they don't see each other once a year, who remembers them!

The second and third brothers' families are closer to the Li family in the city. According to them, "Second Master", "Sixth Master" and "Seventh Master" were all born to the same mother, and they must be closer than those born to other great-grandmothers.The three masters are of the same father as the other masters, and now after three or four generations, the relationship is more than double or twice as far away.

There are four generations of their children, and Li Mu has three generations, but no matter which generation Li Mu is not very familiar with them.

On the contrary, every time they come back, they can remember Li Mu very clearly.In the previous life, as long as he saw the red Santana, he could think of the Seventeenth Brother in this city.Now I use another way to remember, for example, I can think of him when I am promising, or I can think of him when I see foreigners.Limu and his hometown cousin are in a strange state of "you know me, but I don't know you".

There are nine people sitting in the lobby of the ancestral house, basically they are cousins ​​of the same generation, and there are more villagers who have not returned from doing farm work.

"She...isn't your foreign daughter-in-law?"

"Isa is the bodyguard hired by the company for me."

Li Mu looked behind him.Yisha was wearing a black dress and a pair of sunglasses on her face. She looked like a stranger, but she still attracted attention when she sat beside Li Mu.Bringing her here is just to let her enjoy the scenery of the countryside. Isa deserves to enjoy the work she has worked so hard for most of her life.

Li Mu chatted with his cousins ​​in a general way, only talking about things that everyone is familiar with, and trying to avoid uncommon words.

There are also groups of three or five inside and outside the hall. The elderly gather together to bask in the sun, the fathers gather together to talk about careers, the women gather together to talk about children, and the children run around the village together... Only the children in the city are separated from the children. .

Mao Ying was not funny with her mother, so she came to sit with Li Mu.

Almost two hours later, other branches in the city also arrived one after another, and they came to the lobby to rest for a while.

"Rimu, what are you looking at?"

When Li Mu's eyes were erratic and his hair was raised in a daze.The middle-aged uncle who just stepped into the lobby asked.

"I am here……"

Li Mu was indeed in a daze, waiting for two hours was tiring, not to mention that he was obviously not in the same circle as his cousins ​​in the circle theory,

When the cousins ​​were talking about which sow and wild boar actually gave birth to a litter of 14 piglets, Li Mu talked to them about wild boar hybrids and the work of raising wild boars all over the mountain.It's a pity that they don't agree that wild boars can be raised, and they don't think wild boars can make money. In this era, food safety and ecological pigs are not so important.

But...if you start thinking now, try raising two or three domestic and wild boar hybrids.Once the food problem breaks out four or five years later, the market advantages of ecological pigs will be highlighted.It is just right to start farming this year or next year. It will be difficult to make money when the market is occupied.

If the cousins ​​want to earn tens of millions in ten years with a capital of 10,000+, the best way is undoubtedly to raise ecological pigs.There are mountains, land, and mountain springs in the village. The villagers are naturally skilled and hardworking. It is no problem to recruit ordinary breeders. The only thing they lack is experience and the high-end technology that comes with experience. [

Although the general environment has not yet formed, the forward-looking boss is starting to transform from now on.They sold all their possessions and devoted themselves to the research of ecological pigs. The six or seven years coincided with the era of food problems.

To be honest, from the perspective of citizen equality, Limu is opposed to raising ecological pigs.

The growth cycle of ecological pigs is slow; they occupy a large area of ​​land;

The so-called ecological pigs are pigs that have been treated for epidemic prevention, and the feed requires other additives other than pesticide residues, heavy metals, and organic salts.Pig excrement is treated in a harmful way, such as biogas fermentation, etc., and then used as fertilizer for crops, shipped and slaughtered in a basic humane manner, and the pork that comes out is diseased.

They can’t be squeezed when transporting them... Under various cares, this kind of pigs sell cheaply for 70 yuan a catty, and the ordinary ones cost hundreds of yuan a catty. No matter how expensive the pear wood is, I have never bought it.Ecology is ecology, but this kind of pigs raised by taking up a lot of resources can't be eaten by ordinary people, it can be said to be special pork.

As time goes by, the polarization will become more and more serious in the future, and it will be difficult for ordinary people to eat a meal of ecological pigs.It has caused a phenomenon that "the upper classes eat ecological pigs" and "ordinary people eat ordinary pigs".Capable people make more money and eat better, which is not wrong.The problem is the change of ideology

Those who hold the power to change the world must be powerful people.If there were no ecological pigs, what they would eat would be clenbuterol fattening agent; if high-ranking officials, wealthy businessmen, and decision-makers who condense power eat the same kind of food as the common people, then the food problem will be easily affected. Pay attention to.

If there is no special supply and no differentiated treatment, the food supervision will be strictly controlled by the above.If there is strict regulation, food problems such as hormone pigs, fast-growing chickens, and synthetic eggs will all disappear from the market.

If the food affects the safety of the upper class, they will naturally do their best to monitor it, and no one wants their children to be harmed by the food.

But there will be a difference if there is a "special supply", and there will be a difference in treatment if there is a difference.Therefore, foods marked with the word "ecological" will be supervised particularly strictly. On the contrary, the regulatory authorities will not pay too much attention to non-ecological foods.

Limu also bought ecological pork before. It would be no problem to eat one or two meals every six months, but most of the time he ate problem meat, vegetables and oil.Inviting foreign friends to eat at home, obviously watching him vomit and diarrhea, knowing that there must be something wrong with this dish!But for the sake of living, Ren Yiren is still not willing to spend money to buy special offerings, anyway, the body has already developed antibodies... o(□)o
