The Local Lazy Man System

Chapter 1937 Worshiping Ancestors

"She's playing with Xiaobai and the others outside."

Liu Qingqing said.

"Go and call her back, and after I finish breakfast, I will take her to the ancestral hall to pay respects to the ancestors."

Ye Rongrong said.

"Okay, I'll serve you breakfast first, and I'll call her later."

As Liu Qingqing said, she walked towards the kitchen in the backyard.

"Master, can you teach me how to cook?"

After Liu Qingqing walked away, Ye Piaoyue put down the broom in her hand and came to Ye Glory's side and said.

Originally, Ye Rongrong thought that Ye Piaoyue, who had been spoiled and spoiled since she was a child in a stupid noble family, would definitely not be able to do these rough and tiring jobs, and would take the initiative to go home after a few days of doing it.

But in fact, Ye Piaoyue is still doing well these few days, and she is having a good time, she really regards herself as a member of the family.

And it doesn't matter that she poured honey into Liu Qingqing, Liu Qingqing is like a good sister to her now, and now they regard her as a member of the family.

What made Ye Rongrong speechless the most was that Ye Piaoyue called Liu Qingqing "Sister Qingqing" and said that she was still the master. She said so many times, but she just didn't change her words.

"Why are you learning cooking?"

Ye Rongrong asked suspiciously.

After all, Aunt Wang is basically doing all the cooking in this family.

"I have learned how to cook, so I can cook for you, Master."

Ye Piaoyue said.

"Are you really going to stay here forever?"

Ye Rongrong frowned and looked at Ye Piaoyue.

"Where is the master, I will be there. I am your master, and I will follow you for the rest of my life."

Ye Piaoyue looked at Ye Rongrong and said.

"Don't think about it anymore, you are still young, you should have your own life, you want to find a man you like to fall in love with, and you want to have a home of your own..."

"Master, I'm going to sweep the floor."

Seeing that Ye Rongrong persuaded herself to be stupid again, Ye Piaoyue hurriedly said, and fled outside.

"This floating moon!"

Ye Rongrong shook his head helplessly.

...

"Father, why are you taking me to the ancestral hall?"

Dudu looked at the closed gate of the ancestral hall in front of him, and asked Ye Rongrong curiously.

The gate of this ancestral hall is usually closed, Dudu and these children are forbidden to play inside, Dudu doesn't understand how his father brought him here.

"Kowtow to the ancestors!"

Ye Rongrong said.

"Is there any lucky money?"

Dudu immediately asked excitedly.

Now a child as old as Dudu already knows the role of money, and often takes money to buy things in small village shops.

"No!"

Ye Rongrong shook his head and said.

Think about when I was as old as Dudu, I didn't know what money was, and the parents at home would not let their children see money.

Even if it is New Year's money, that is, put it in the child's pocket for one night, and the parents will take it away the next day.

At that time, there was not much lucky money, only a few yuan, a dozen yuan.

Thinking about it now, China's economic development in the past few decades has been really fast. Now the lucky money given to children is hundreds or thousands.

The little kid at that time didn't understand anything, how could he know how to ask adults for New Year's money!

Unlike today's children, people with big farts know everything.

"Then can I not kowtow?"

Dudu pouted immediately and said.

Usually when paying New Year's greetings to the elders, the elders would give New Year's money. Without the New Year's money, Dudu didn't want to kowtow.

"no!"

Ye Rongrong shook his head and said.

"This is the ancestral hall. Our ancestors are enshrined here. They are our ancestors. We must remember our ancestors with a respectful heart, so that our ancestors will bless us."

Ye Rongrong said.

"Will they bless Tootoo?"

Dudu looked up at his father and asked.

"Yes, the ancestors will bless Dudu to grow up healthy and happy."

Ye Rongrong nodded and said.

"That Dudu kowtows to them."

Dudu thought for a while and said.

"This is our great-grandfather!"

Ye Rongrong pointed to the portrait hanging in the center of the ancestral hall and said to Dudu.

Gaozu is too far away from the present. In the past two hundred years, there were no cameras or other photo-taking equipment at that time. The only thing that could take pictures were the portraits drawn by the painter.

The portrait of Gaozu enshrined in Ye's ancestral hall was painted by posterity. No one knows whether Gaozu looked like this.

After all, this age is too long, even if there are portraits left at that time, they are almost blurred.

However, similar to the portraits of ancestors in many ancestral halls, the portrait of Ye's Gaozu is wearing the official uniform of a Qing Dynasty official, and the whole person looks very powerful.

If you have seen the portraits of the emperors of the Qing Dynasty, you will feel that the portraits of Gaozu are very similar to those of the emperors of the Qing Dynasty.

Not only the portraits of Gaozu and Taizu in Ye's ancestral hall, but Ye Rongrong has been to Wang's ancestral hall and Xie's ancestral hall in the next village, and the portraits of their Gaozu, Taizu, and great-grandfather are also the same.

It gives the impression that everyone's ancestors look similar.

Ye Rongrong didn't understand at first, but after listening to the elders, he understood.

Gaozu and Taizu are too far away from everyone, and the ancestral halls are basically built by younger generations, and everyone's influence on Gaozu and Taizu is basically vague.

The painter can only rely on everyone's vague impressions, and then refer to the portraits of the emperors of the past to draw them.

So if you look at the portraits of Taizu and Gaozu and think that Gaozu and Taizu looked like that more than two hundred years ago, you are completely wrong.

"Our great-grandfather's name is Ye Zheyun, and he was the first generation of ancestors who migrated to Taoyuan Village."

Ye Rongrong said.

"Father, what is Gaozu?"

Dudu looked at Ye Rongrong curiously and asked.

"Gaozu is the father of Dudu's grandfather's grandfather."

Ye Rongrong explained awkwardly.

The main reason is that Gaozu's seniority is too high, and Ye Rongrong doesn't know how to explain it other than this.

"Dudu kowtowed to Grandpa Gao!"

Dudu kowtowed respectfully to the Ye clan's great-grandfather.

Since Dudu was born, he has never seen his grandfather, all he can see is the cold portrait in the photo.

Dudu really wants to be like other children, with a grandfather who loves him.

But mother told Dudu that Dudu's grandparents went to a very distant place and would never come back.

Dudu didn't understand the meaning of her mother's words before, but now Dudu understands that Dudu's grandfather is dead and has gone to another world.

But now the great grandfather in this portrait is in another world just like his own grandfather.

"This is what our grandpa Ye believed!"

Seeing Dudu finished kowtowing to Gaozu, Ye Rongrong nodded, pointing to the portrait on the lower right of Grandpa Taizu and said to Dudu.

The ancestor in the lower right portrait is the great grandfather of Ye Rongrong's lineage, and the characters in the other portraits side by side with the great grandfather are the brothers of the great grandfather.

Ye Rongrong only knew the name of his great-grandfather. As for the names of the brothers of his great-grandfather, Ye Rongrong didn't know, because Ye Rongrong's grandfather didn't tell Ye Rongrong either.

Of course, it is very simple for Ye Rongrong to know, just open the genealogy of Ye's ancestral hall.

The genealogy contains the names of the ancestors of the past generations, and even records of some life events.
