Chapter 44 ancestor worship
Luo Baisu suddenly regained his energy, wiped his face, and said to Luo Baihan, "I'm going to eat first."

Luo Baihan knew that the Nian pig was killed today, and the meat was being stewed in the kitchen, so he didn't say a word to persuade him to stay, but when the old man heard Luo Tiandu's voice, he opened the door and said, "Let's eat here, take your The daughter-in-law is also called."

Yao Shi in the room coughed.

Luo Tian didn't want to look at Yao's face for a meal, so he refused: "Grandpa, mother has finished the meal, we'd better go and eat, otherwise there will be leftovers."

"It's so cold, it's the same to keep it for tomorrow." Old man Luo is focused on taking good care of the eldest family.

Luo Baisu also said: "It's getting late, I also want to finish eating early and read a book."

Speaking of reading, the old man Luo fell silent and waved his hand to signal them to go back.After Luo Baisu left, old man Luo looked at Luo Baihan who was having a lively conversation with his classmates in the main room, and he didn't have the slightest intention of getting up to see him off, and he couldn't help but sighed heavily in his heart.

How did such a good family become what they are now?

Luo Baisu followed Luo Tiandu back to the east room, Fang had already set the table and chopsticks, saw the two of them came back, scooped up warm water to wash their hands, and the family sat down to eat dinner.

"Did your grandpa and grandma leave you there for dinner when you passed by?" Fang asked suddenly without knowing what was coming to her mind.

"When we came out, grandpa wanted our family to have dinner, but dad and I didn't agree." Luo Tiandu was drinking soup, when he heard Fang's question, he put down the bowl and replied.

"Why didn't you agree?" Fang asked her, "Your grandfather slaughtered the New Year's pig today, and he will definitely eat stewed meat tonight. I can even smell the aroma."

Luo Tiandu snorted, and said: "The honest ones will not be eaten by the cheap."

Fang didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, but Luo Baisu understood, and smiled and knocked her on the head, saying: "Let you talk nonsense, grandpa kindly left you for dinner, how can you say it's a cheap meal?"

Luo Tiandu covered his head, bared his teeth and argued: "Grandpa is kind, but grandma is still in charge of the house. I would rather eat pickles at home every day than go and see grandma's eyes."

This is what she said in her heart, the days of counting the rice grains in the bowl by watching people's faces are really aggrieved.

Fang smiled, thinking that this child is most like her at this time, he is strong in his bones, and he doesn't want to look at people's faces casually.

"And if I really want to stay there, I don't know when I will be able to eat." Luo Tiandu added.

As for Yinger's daughter-in-law's behavior, it's unknown when her meal is ready.

"Your grandma didn't cook today?" Fang smiled, "No wonder I think the smoke from the chimney of the stove over there is so thick, it doesn't look like your grandma is lighting a fire."

Luo Tian nodded straightly: "If my grandma doesn't cook today, the people in the house don't know how long they will have to wait."

There are five members of Yao's family, plus three classmates of Luo Baihan and Yinger, there are nine people in total. Yinger can't even cook a fire until now. I really hope that she can cook meals for nine people, the day lily will be cold.

Sure enough, when it was getting dark, the smoke from the chimney of the main house still lingered, Yao was so hungry that his stomach was growling, and Yinger's meal was not ready, so he rushed to the kitchen and scolded Yinger.After a while, I saw Ying'er wiping her tears and coming to look for Fang.

"Sister-in-law, just help me this time, everyone in the room is waiting to eat, but I'm clumsy, I just can't do it well." Yinger begged Fang pitifully.

She used to be kept by Mr. Qi's side to relieve boredom. She seldom does the work of serving tea and water on weekdays. Shi could scold her a few words at most, and cook by herself when she was hungry. If she really learned how to cook, the kitchen work would really fall on her in the future, and she couldn't push it away.She was willing to leave Qi's family, and she didn't come to Luo's village to serve everyone in the house.

Fang was in a bit of a dilemma. During the day, Yao made a fuss about weighing the meat. At this time, she really didn't want to go to the main room to put her hot face on Yao's cold ass. Yao shi's white eyes really couldn't please him at all.She's not a fool, she's full of complaints when she doesn't have to help others.Besides, she really looks down on Yinger, a maid who can't even cook a meal, I really don't know what she used to do in Qi's family.Luo Mingdu is only eight years old, not to mention cooking, he is also good at farm work in the field.

Ying Er begged Fang Shi for a long time, but Fang Shi didn't let go. Seeing Yao Shi standing under the eaves and staring at her again, his face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, so he had to wipe his eyes, lowered his head and continued to go to the stove.

Maybe it was really late, Ying Er went into the kitchen, Yao Shi sent Luo Baining over and asked Fang Shi to help cook.Fang couldn't refuse this time, so he went to the stove house bravely.

Luo Tiandu followed Fang into the stove room, and saw that there was only a pot of stew on the stove that was almost cooked, the rice was not cooked, and the side dishes were not cooked.Cooperating with Ying'er in the stove house for a long time, and stewed a pot of meat, Luo Tian felt a little sympathetic to Yao shi at the moment. He brought a girl back, she was clearly another relative of Yao shi. Daughter!
Just eating and not working.

At that moment, Luo Tiandu went to light the fire, Luo Mingdu washed the vegetables, Fang rolled up his sleeves, cleaned the pot neatly, cooked a pot of gruel, covered the pot, and pasted a circle of corn cakes around it, which is a staple food.

As for the side dishes, it is still Fang's specialty shredded potatoes with vinegar, and a pot of sauerkraut stewed with pork bones, and then fried Chinese cabbage, and that's it.

That's it, when Mrs. Yao came over, he complained about Mrs. Fang's waste. He stewed the meat and bones, and at the end asked Mrs. Fang to serve the dishes.

Mrs. Fang was busy in the kitchen for a long time, but she didn't get a good word. She still had to wait for the people in the room to eat, and poured food and water from time to time. Old man Luo couldn't see it, and told her to sit down and have a bite too. She was also ridiculed by Yao's yin and yang: "There are guests at home, and the daughter-in-law is not busy serving, so why do you want me, an old woman, to come?"

Fang endured and endured, suppressing all the anger in his heart, and finally waited until the family was full of wine and food, leaving a table of cups, plates and dishes, and after Fang finished washing the dishes and tidying up the kitchen, he happened to see Luo Baihan sent his three classmates out, and each of them carried a small piece of meat in their hands.

After seeing Luo Tian, ​​he couldn't say anything.

She remembered clearly that Fang's family bought the piece of meat for one hundred yuan per catty. To these outsiders, Yao's was extraordinarily generous. I really don't know who is her Luo family.

People are doing it, and the sky is watching. Yao Shi has gone too far, and he doesn't know if he will regret it one day in the future.

Although Luo Baisu's family was separated, the New Year's Eve worship ancestors had to go to the main house.On the New Year's Eve, the family got up early, first lit the fire and steamed the steamed buns made by staying up late last night, and packed up several fruit plates, and packed them one by one.When the steamed buns were steamed, Luo Baisu took the pen, put red dots on them, and put them on a plate.The family cleaned up again, and Fang even took out a green gown on purpose for Luo Baisu to change into, and then they went to the main room together.

In the main room, the old man Luo was leading Luo Baihan to set up the altar, while Yao Shi, Luo Baining and Ying Er stood aside to help.After a while, a table for the Eight Immortals was set up. On the table was a whole pig's head, and two sticks of incense were inserted on the pig's head.Three halves of radishes were placed under the pig's head, the middle was hollowed out, a red candle was placed in each of the left and right, and a few sticks of incense were inserted in the middle, and the smoke was lingering.

Su Luo Bai put the fruit plate and steamed buns on the table, and led the three members of his family in to kowtow.

At such an important moment of offering sacrifices to the ancestors, it was rare for Yao Shi to stop for a while, watching Luo Baisu kowtow and offer incense in front of Luo Baihan, although he was dissatisfied, he did not open his mouth to make trouble.

Fang lit the incense and handed three to Luo Tiandu.Luo Tiandu took it over, knelt down and prayed reverently.In fact, she is a typical materialist and does not believe in gods and Buddhas at all, but when she comes to this place, she will inevitably follow the crowd.She herself is not afraid of ghosts and gods who will repay the injustice of the past life in this life, but for the sake of the people around her, she must be in awe.

In this life, she doesn't want to be rich and powerful, but only wants her family to be free from serious illnesses and to grow old safely, which is her greatest wish.

After sacrificing the ancestors, one has to go to the graves of the ancestors. Usually, the head of the family takes the males to the graves, but Luo Baisu is separated this year, and the family has only two daughters and no sons. The eldest son still attaches great importance to it, and he also likes the two little granddaughters very much, so he couldn't help but have an idea, so he asked Fang to take some clothes that Luo Baisu had when he was a child, and put them on for Luo Tiandu, pretending to be a little boy, and bringing them together. Go to the ancestral grave.

He himself hadn't made up his mind on the matter of the child, and as a result, decades of quarrels had resulted in disharmony in the house, so he didn't want Luo Baisu to follow his old path.Along the way, he kept telling Luo Baisu to treat his two daughters well, and said that Mrs. Fang was still young, and she might have another boy and half girl in the future.

Old man Luo was already clumsy in his speech, and he talked for a long time, but he didn't get to the point. He "babbled" for a long time, and finally said: "Even if there is no son in the future, Xiaodu is so smart, even if he stays at home and recruits a son-in-law. the same."

Luo Tian opened his eyes wide, looking at old man Luo, it was incredible.In her eyes, old man Luo is a typical northern man. He pursues the family policy of "the man dominates the outside, and the woman dominates the inside". Surprised.

The ancestral grave of the Luo family is close to the top of the hill, and there is a piece of dead grass on the grave. Old man Luo led Luo Baisu to cut off the dead grass, put a stick of incense on the grave, sprinkled a glass of rice wine on the ground, and knelt down on the grave. Cloudy tears flowed down: "Ancestors, ancestors, unfilial children and grandchildren have come to see you."
