Life is Perfect

, colored longevity peach and big red frame.

Because this time I want to give the beasts to the old lady Lu, so I have to post "Five blessings and longevity"

In the middle is a round birthday character, surrounded by five colored bats, as well as red and yellow festive arches and colored balls.

It can be said that the entire layout has restored the characteristic birthday banquet assistant venue in the capital, and has inherited the set of the ancestors.

Everything in the main hall in between are inscribed with the word "Shou", and a huge peach of longevity is very conspicuous.

Shou Tao is a large peach-shaped steamed bun with a tip on the top, dyed red. In front of Shou Tao is... a bowl of Shou Noodles. Shou Noodles are machine-rolled and slender noodles. Peach-shaped, with birthday flowers on the top, and red paper-cuts on the outside.

Lu Wanxi and Gao Xiang followed the crowd into the main room in the side hall, and they could roughly see some of the layout of the entire main room.

On the front wall of the main room of this side hall, there are embroidered or painted images of longevity stars, with the words "Fu Ru Dong Hai, Shou Bi Nan Shan" on both sides.

The longevity couplet, offering blessings, wealth, and longevity three-star statues, is placed on the table with wax skewers, longevity candles, a pair of flower pots for flower arrangement, and an incense burner.

Mrs. Lu is an old lady, so in the center of the birthday hall, a red satin embroidered golden pattern of five bats holding a birthday will be hung. A statue of Magu offering a birthday will be placed in front of the table. There are wax skewers on the table and cranes on the incense burner cover In the shape of lotus flower and ganoderma lucidum, there are also five bowls of fresh peaches, fresh noodles, and snacks on the table, with the words "Golden Shou" inserted on the top for offering flowers and bitterness.

Under the wax skewer there are still yellow coins, paper ingots, and thousands of sheets. A red cushion is placed in front of the table. The table surrounded by the table has a red bottom and is embroidered with circular characters for longevity or cranes, deer, green pine, etc. pattern.

The older the family, the more they pay attention to these...... Traditional custom of making birthdays.

It is a culture and a tradition.

When Gao Xiang entered this side hall, Mr. Lu, who was chatting with Mr. Jiang, also noticed Gao Xiang, the future grandson-in-law.

Chapter 416

Old Man Lu saw Gao Xiang, but Gao Xiang didn't notice Old Man Lu.

At this time, the whole birthday banquet hall is very lively, and there is a traditional atmosphere of birthday celebration in Beijing.

There is a table of the Eight Immortals in front of the center of the birthday banquet hall. Such a table of the Eight Immortals is rare in the capital.

On the table of the Eight Immortals, besides the longevity peach and longevity noodles, a pair of red candles in large double packs are also lit, a piece of worship money and food, and a piece of "Benming Longevity Xingjun" printed in woodcut and watercolor.

The god code is clipped on the god paper clip.

At the same time, there are birthday banners on the birthday banquet hall, the red background is gold, and "Pengdao Spring Oi" is embroidered on it.

, "Wusu Tenghui"

, "Shouyu Kaixiang"

Waiting for the congratulatory speech, there are also some calligraphy and paintings with pine trees, cranes, wild deer, Magu, birthday stars, eight immortals and pictures of longevity.

As a big family, the Lu family naturally invites artists to sing and perform. The variety of performances include Peking Opera, various local operas, various folk arts, juggling, shadow puppetry and so on.

In the old days, people in Beijing celebrated their birthdays with "crossing the kaner,"

The saying, "Kan'er,"

It refers to the threshold of each person's life expectancy.

From the age of fifty, there will be a hurdle every ten years or so. If you pass it smoothly, you will live another ten years.

get stuck, get sick or...die.

Now that Mrs. Lu is 80 years old, it can be said that she has passed several hurdles.

In such a birthday banquet hall, those who don't know think that they have traveled through the past, and the historical charm is full.

Gao Xiang looked at the deployment of the birthday banquet hall, and suddenly felt a little close, after all, the attention to the birthday banquet is becoming less and less.

The Lu family can still maintain such traditional birthday banquet ceremonies and deployments. The comparison between the 100-year-old families of the rich and famous and the families of the emerging rich has come to a head.

The birthday celebrations at the Regal House are all about pomp and circumstance. No matter how expensive it is, all kinds of seafood, abalone, and shark fins are served on the table, and all kinds of star artists gather together. It feels like a concert.

But the 100-year-old Lu family held a birthday banquet for Mrs. Lu just to pay attention to tradition and culture, which showed the profound heritage of the family.

It was because of this that Gao Xiang knew that the Lu family was the real prestigious family.

"Gao Xiang, my grandma is there."

Lu Wanxi looked at Mrs. Lu, who was sitting in the middle to receive congratulations from everyone, and said, "Let's go, let's go over to congratulate grandma on her birthday."

"Um."

Gao Xiang followed in the footsteps of Lu Wanxi and the old lady.

At this time, Lu Jun, a birthday star, was wearing a robe with a blessing and longevity pattern and sat on the Taishi chair, accepting the worship of his family, relatives and friends.

The younger generation usually kowtows, saying some auspicious words when kneeling and bowing. When the elders of the same generation kowtow, the old man on the birthday has to stand up and make a gesture of mixing with his hands, indicating that he asks the other party to waive the bow.

If it is an elder, you only need to bow your hands, and the person receiving the congratulations will also take the initiative to sit on the seat where he is congratulated and kowtow to the other party.

But they are basically the younger generation of Mrs. Lu. The oldest Mr. Jiang is also one year younger than Mrs. Lu, and he is considered a peer.

Lu Wanxi and Gao Xiang came to the old lady Lu and celebrated their birthdays one after another.

"Grandma, I wish you a long life like Donghai than Nanshan."

Lu Wanxi smiled sweetly and then introduced, "This is my boyfriend Gao Xiang."

With a smile on Gao Xiang's face, he said sincerely: "Old Lady Lu, the younger generation Gao Xiang wishes you good luck, good luck, three-star longevity, happiness and good fortune in the whole house, and your praise to Nanshan means that Nanshan is not old in spring. The North Sea is as deep as the North Sea.

I wish the tree of life for the elderly to be evergreen, the water of life to flow, a happy birthday, and the eternal bloom of spring!"
