Chapter 316 Tomb Sweeping During Qingming Festival
Ye Qingqing and Ye Ying made several kinds of pastries together, they were all fashionable pastries, they could be made and eaten all year round.

The only difference is the green dumplings.

Because the wormwood needed to make Qingtuanzi is only available in this season, it is impossible to eat it after the season.

It took almost an hour, and finally made six kinds of pastries, each of which was made a lot, so in addition to setting aside for worship, the rest can be used as breakfast, and by the way, let the people in the kitchen and the shopkeeper Let's have a taste together.

After breakfast, Ye Damao drove out of the county with a few people in a mule cart.

After leaving the county seat and heading eastward for less than half an hour, you will arrive at the Ye family's ancestral grave.

This place has beautiful mountains and clear waters, even if you don't know much about Feng Shui, you know it's a good place.

When we arrived at the place, we got off the mule cart and took a shovel to remove all the weeds around the grave mound. After finishing all this, another half an hour had passed.

The sun had already risen in mid-air at this time, and the sun shone warmly on his body, and the sweat on his body was reduced a lot when the breeze blew, and he suddenly felt much more comfortable.

After clearing the weeds, the next step is worship.

Worship is not just casually kneeling down and kowtow a few times.

First of all, take out the things used to worship the ancestors: incense candles, vegetarian wine, fruit snacks, meals, flowers, and "packages".

Burdens are all kinds of furniture, clothes, bowls and chopsticks made of paper. Burn these together with the paper money, hoping that the ancestors can live well.

After burning the paper money, plant new soil on the grave, fold a few tender green willow branches and insert them on the grave, and press some paper money on top, so that others can see that there are descendants in this grave, and then kowtow to worship.

After all this is done, the worship is over.

Some literati and inkmen would gather for dinner and drink to fly kites after the worship, but Ye Qingqing and the others didn't have this intention, so they were avoided.

However, Ye Ying still wove wicker into a basket shape and put it on her head.

This is because, there is an old saying, "If you don't wear willows during the Qingming Festival, you will turn into a yellow dog in the next life."

Even if you know it's not true, you still have to do it, just in case.

Leaving from the ancestral grave, Ye Qingqing's heart was still a little heavy, Ye Ying also saw it, and couldn't help comforting her voice, "Girl Qing, don't think about the past, we can't stop what happened back then, Now that it has happened, you can't let this matter weigh on you. Your grandparents must also hope that you can be well, don't you think? "

Ye Qingqing smiled when she heard the words. Although the smile was a little pale, she still agreed, "I know what mother said, and I will be fine."

-

Ye Damao didn't go back directly in the mule cart, but went to the county town again.

After finally coming here, I always have to buy some things to go back, so it's not like I came empty-handed.

Seeing that the weather is getting hotter and hotter, it is necessary to change the unlined clothes, so Ye Ying decides to tear the cloth for everyone in the family and go back to make new clothes and shoes.

After shopping, I went to the bookstore again.

The bookstores in the county are naturally different from those in the town. Not only are the scales much larger, but there are also more types of books.

As soon as Ye Ping'an entered the bookstore, his eyes were glued to these books.

But he also knew that with his current situation, some miscellaneous books were not necessary to read, the main thing was to study the Four Books and Five Classics diligently.

So in the end I only bought books on this subject, and I also bought a pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
