Brand-new Spring Festival couplets are also posted at the entrance of the courtyard, and red lanterns are hung.
He opened the door and walked in.
The inside is also well decorated, with window grilles and the word "福" written all over it.
Came to the living room.
Grandpa and grandma were sitting there, wearing red Tang suits, looking energetic and full of joy during the New Year.
Zhou Xing greeted him with a smile on his face: "Happy New Year to my grandparents. I wish them good health and longevity."
"Ding, the purchase of life span is successful, two hundred system points will be deducted!"
A prompt appears on the light blue light screen in front of you.
The smile on Zhou Xing's face remained unchanged as he turned off the light blue light curtain.
As an eldest grandson, it’s his first time to visit his grandparents to pay New Year greetings. It shouldn’t be too much to give each of them a year of life, right?
Everyone else is a blessing.
But he meant it directly.
"Okay, okay, my dear grandson!"
Grandma stood up and took Zhou Xing's hand, patting it constantly. The smile on her face never disappeared.
Then he took out a thick red envelope from his arms and stuffed it into Zhou Xing's hand: "My dear grandson, take the red envelope and be happy and sensible in the new year."
When Zhou Xing saw the red envelope, he immediately refused and said, "No, grandma, I have enough money. Although the amount is not much, it is more than enough for my own use. You can just keep it for your own use."
"Given by elders, you cannot refuse."
Zhou Dingshan said at the side: "You can just take it. We are both old, and there are people taking care of food and clothing. We have no place to spend money. What we originally thought was to return all these things before we die." Give it to the country, come clean and leave clean."
"Now...after I have you, I blame my old man for being selfish. He will pay back what he deserves. He just wants to leave something for his grandson."
Although Zhou Dingshan's face was deliberately stern, wanting Zhou Xing to accept the red envelope, his brows still showed happiness.
Zhou Xing thought for a moment and felt that what Zhou Dingshan said made sense, "Then I will accept the red envelope. Thank you, grandparents."
He immediately took the red envelope and put it in his pocket.
"Okay, okay, good boy."
Grandma smiled from ear to ear and asked Zhou Xing to eat something and drink a cup of hot tea to warm up.
Zhou Xing also followed suit.
After chatting for a while, Zhou Dingshan stood up and said to Zhou Xing: "Let's go and pay homage to our ancestors."
Grandma patted Zhou Xing, casually released her hold on his hand, and said with a smile: "Go and pay homage to your grandfather. We are both ancestors of the Zhou family. As a member of the Zhou family, you should go and see it."
"Let our ancestors see the descendants of our Zhou family. They will be very happy if they see that you are such an outstanding and sensible person."
"Okay." Zhou Xing responded happily, stood up and followed Zhou Dingshan, walking out of the living room together towards the ancestral hall at the front.
Enter the spacious ancestral hall.
Inside the ancestral hall.
Fireworks curled up.
The candles and lights on both sides reflect each other, reflecting the names of each ancestor.
Zhou Xing looked at it curiously and was a little surprised...the ranking of his ancestors could be traced back to the Ming Dynasty hundreds of years ago.
He is also a king with a different surname.
Then the branches and leaves spread out, and all the big officials.
Then there are the Wu champions, Wen champions... they are everywhere.
Every stroke of pen has a trace to follow.
Zhou Xing was a little surprised that his ancestor was so brilliant.
As if he had read Zhou Xing's thoughts, Zhou Dingshan explained with a smile: "In today's era, after so many years of inheritance and so many wars, those who are able to have names today basically all have great achievements in their ancestors. Don’t be surprised.”ωωw..net
Zhou Xing remained silent.
It's the same when you think about it. In the chaos of war, the people are like duckweeds.
Relatively speaking, a large family is more capable and has a greater chance of leaving descendants.
Zhou Dingshan lit three sticks of incense, went forward to worship, and then placed them on the incense altar.
Then he handed Zhou Xingsan a stick of incense: "Go and pay homage to your ancestors. Don't be too restrained. They are all our ancestors. They will only feel happy when they see the younger generations. Don't worry about offending them."
"But there are still some rules. This is your first time here, and you are already so old."
"Kowtow to them a few times."
Zhou Xing had no objection.
Holding the lit incense in his hand, he knelt on the ground, kowtowed three times solemnly, then stood up, bowed, and put the incense on it.
Zhou Dingshan was in front and lit the candles. After placing the candles, he looked at the plaque of his ancestors and said: "The ancestors are above, this is my grandson Zhou Xing."
"How about it? It looks pretty good. He has inherited the excellent blood of our Zhou family, and he looks decent."
"At a young age... I have made a lot of contributions to the country. I am gentle and filial. I am just a little bit carefree and have a lot of girlfriends. But this is fine. In my lineage, I have always been He will work harder to spread the branches and leaves of the single biography, so that our Zhou family can pass on it for several more generations."
Zhou Xing: “!!!!!!”
He looked at Zhou Dingshan, why can't he solve this problem?
After returning home, his parents teased him with this thing all day long. Zhou Dingshan knew that he was still dissatisfied, but he actually wanted to talk to his ancestors.
How embarrassing.
Zhou Xing looked at the plaque of his ancestors and smiled awkwardly.
"Ha ha ha ha......"
Zhou Dingshan couldn't help laughing when he saw Zhou Xing like this, pointed at him and said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to be embarrassed."
Zhou Xing was a little speechless.
He is thick-skinned, but this kind of thing is not an honorable thing in itself.
After staying in the ancestral hall for a while.
He and Zhou Dingshan returned to the living room again and chatted for a while.
"It's better to stay here for a few more days, and when school starts, just go to school directly."
Zhou Dingshan got excited about the conversation, looked at Zhou Xing and said.
"But......."
Zhou Xing seemed a little hesitant: "I haven't even stayed at home for a few days during the New Year. I should go back early and go with my parents to say New Year greetings to others."
"What's there to worship in Jiangcheng?"
Zhou Dingshan looked disdainful: "My true roots are in this capital. Even if I don't worship you, I haven't seen my ancestors for so many years."
"Just stay here for a few more days, at least two or three days before going back. I'm afraid he won't dare to have any objections."
After Zhou Xing heard this, he nodded immediately: "Okay."
Grandpa has said so. As a junior, since he wants him to stay here so much, he can only choose to obey.
Zhou Xing's eyes moved slightly.
Elderly people, even if they create a lively New Year atmosphere, they will still feel lonely without their children around them. Moreover, they have been living like this for more than ten or twenty years.
It is understandable to think about having your grandson by your side during the Chinese New Year.
After Zhou Dingshan came today, he changed his serious look from before, his smile never disappeared, and his words became much gentler.
Even though he holds a high position, it is difficult to avoid human nature.
It seems...it is urgent to repair the relationship between Zhou Dingshan and Zhou Jianping.
