The pleasantries with Mr. Chen were forced to end when the time for ancestor worship came.
Because today is the time for ancestor worship.
Not long after Fang Yu returned, the village chief found him.
Although Fang Yu still wanted to chat more, Mr. Chen also smiled and said that after the ancestor worship was over, he would have a good chat and asked Fang Yu to hurry over and don't keep the clan elders waiting.
After Fang Yu left, Mr. Chen looked at Fang Yu's leaving figure and nodded with relief in his eyes. Then as if he thought of something, he turned around and walked slowly towards his home, almost falling down on the way.
At the same time, after Fang Yu arrived, the ancestor worship ceremony officially began.
Along with the old but high-spirited ancestral worship ceremony of the clan elder, the sound of the ancestral temple was heard.
In front of the ancestral temple, all the people with the Fang surname bowed their hands and listened silently.
Perhaps, the new generation, like Fang Yu's generation, have a bad sense of family nepotism.
Due to some recent media exposures, various family scandals have spread all over the sky.
It makes everyone look a little contemptuous and despised towards this kind of family concept.
In fact, in China, this family concept has been continued from ancient times to the present day. Perhaps many people are confused by the superficial information and think that family is superstitious, and they believe in the so-called individual life abroad.
But after you truly experience the so-called individual life, you will understand why our civilization can last for thousands of years.
If you are alone, you will perish; if you are united, you will survive.
The so-called independence in foreign countries actually refers to personal independence. It never allows you to draw a clear line between you and your family and become an individual.
Fang Yu had had this idea before, and even when he was repairing the ancestral hall this time, it was indeed because he had such a big chance and felt uneasy if he didn't do anything, so he spent money to repair the ancestral hall.
Before he had this adventure, he would never go back to this village in his life.
Now, standing in front of the ancestral temple, looking at the various tablets on the large table in the ancestral hall, there are also his parents, his grandfather, his other great-grandfathers, and grandfathers.
Burn incense and worship.
Kowtow in awe of the sky, tell the people to offer sacrifices, remember the vastness of the sky, and feel the gratitude to the descendants at home and abroad.
Second, kowtow, thank the earth, declare the merits of the ancestors, discuss the fortune of future generations, and write inscriptions to record them.
Kowtow three times to worship the ancestors, hoping that the spirits of the ancestors will protect them in heaven and protect the descendants of the descendants and their good fortune.
After the ceremony was completed, the ceremony was celebrated with loud singing, and the children and grandchildren kowtowed.
The whole festival is over.
Several clan elders were fully attentive, and even had tears in their eyes when they were excited.
There were only a few young people present to worship their ancestors, and they were basically uncles and aunties from the older generation.
They were solemn and solemn, except for the young people who looked unnatural and out of place.
Fang Yu was also among them.
Originally, Fang Yu was only invited by the village chief, and since she was spending her own money, she couldn't shirk it. She also wanted to pay homage to her ancestors for peace of mind.
But what Fang Yu didn't expect was that when he stood in front of the ancestral temple and looked at the memorial tablets of the ancestors, he was stunned when he found that there were also the memorial tablets of his parents and grandfather.
Looking at the memorial tablets of my relatives placed in the middle, there are a lot of memorial tablets of people who are several generations older than me, and some who are of the same generation as my parents.
He didn't know why, but his mind froze.
He also didn't expect that his parents' spiritual tablets would be found here.
Because, modern people have always just designated a cemetery and put up a monument.
Fang Yu's parents were like this too.
When I usually pay my respects, I go to the cemetery.
But now, when she saw the memorial tablets of her parents here, surrounded by incense in front of the memorial tablets, and the clan elders behind her singing loudly, Fang Yu shed tears inexplicably.
He is happy.
It turns out that if your parents are here, you can retain more of their presence.
They are not the only ones concerned.
It is said that there are two deaths in life, one is when the body declares death, and the other is when the last memory is completely forgotten.
The cruelest thing is often the latter.
But now, Fang Yu suddenly truly understood the significance of the existence of these ancestral temples.
As long as the deceased relatives can always be entangled in the incense, their existence will always be remembered.
Not only that, every time you worship your ancestors, it is equivalent to a baptism for the souls of future generations, allowing them to understand their roots and the long history of their ancestors.
Fang Yu didn’t understand before.
But this time, when Fang Yu looked at the memorial tablets of her parents, she couldn't help but shed tears, but she smiled extremely brightly.
Dad! Mom!
Don't worry! This time, I really let go of Xiaoyu completely.
In the future, I will definitely live happier and happier!
Thank you! I have missed you so much over the years!
Fang Yu knelt on the tuanfu and kowtowed hard to the open space in front of the memorial tablet.
One, two, three!
Her forehead was already red, but Fang Yu's eyes were shining with hope.
The village chief who was watching from the side was also in tears.
How could he not know what happened to Fang Yu?
Now that he saw that the baby seemed to have come out, he was happy and sad at the same time.
After the ancestor worship was over, Fang Yu wiped away her tears and walked slowly out of the ancestral temple. She respected and greeted the elders she met on the road, with a bright smile on her face and eyes as clear as stars.
Fang Yu felt that she was better than ever before, and some of the haze that had remained in her heart and the deep-rooted scars from the past had quietly slipped away from her heart, leaving no traces.
My whole body felt like a gust of wind was blowing directly through my heart and blowing behind me.
But I won't feel cold, I will only feel a round, soft, and a little warm feeling in my heart.
"Little fish!"
Fang Yu was saying goodbye to the clan elders one by one. Every clan elder who saw Fang Yu was full of praise for Fang Yu and held hands and patted her shoulders.
A familiar voice came from beside me.
Fang Yu turned around and saw that it was Mr. Chen.
"Grandpa Chen, what's wrong? What's the matter? Hey, be careful!"
Fang Yu supported Mr. Chen who almost fell down and said with concern.
When Mr. Chen saw the expression on Fang Yu's eyebrows when he turned his head, he couldn't help but be stunned.
As Mr. Chen, who had already known his destiny, how could he not see that this little fish of his had completely moved on from the past.
The demeanor I have now is quite suggestive of a profound enlightenment and a clear mind and nature.
"Okay, okay, okay!"
Mr. Chen said three hello loudly, his eyes were red, but he was full of joy.
"My little Yu'er, Lao Chen, I finally don't have to worry about you anymore. Hey, I've suffered so much for you. How old are you?"
As Mr. Chen spoke, he also thought of the past and shed tears as soon as he spoke.
Fang Yu quickly comforted her.
Fortunately, Mr. Chen quickly adjusted his mentality, took out a piece of brown paper from his pocket, and handed it to Fang Yu.
Fang Yu took it, opened it and was stunned.
Because this piece of kraft paper is quite primitive, with a faint smell of medicine and stone on the paper, what is written on it is actually a prescription!
Tiger fat balm!
These are the three traditional Chinese characters written on the top of this prescription. The handwriting is vigorous and powerful, obviously handwritten.
Fang Yu took a cursory glance.
I discovered that this tiger fat ointment is actually a precious medicine used to nourish skin and repair acne, chilblains and ulcers.
Fang Yu had never heard of many medicinal materials in it.
The only thing I can understand is that the main ingredients are tiger fat and snake oil.
The above medicinal effects are its usage as medicine.
And there is another usage written in its function, which is to use the body-refining prescription of Hu Xing Quan!
Fang Yu naturally knew that Tiger Walking Boxing was a branch of Xingyi Five Elements Boxing.
The so-called body refining prescription is not that mysterious. In fact, it is a prescription similar to Shiquan Datong.
It's just that this prescription is targeted and more suitable for people who practice Huxing Quan.
After all, each boxing technique exerts strength and exercises different muscle groups, so there is such a targeted prescription.
In recent years, Hu Xing Quan has frequently appeared in CKF competitions and is a relatively popular martial art in China.
Fang Yu looked at Mr. Chen, with a trace of doubt in his eyes.
