The headman brought a wooden plaque and asked Hanhan to write it. He didn't need to say his name. The sacrificial hall was where Hanhan slept, and he had already memorized the names of his ancestors.

The head of the village arranged the signs in order, lit the incense burner, led Hanhan to kneel down and kowtow, and found other villagers to kowtow. This was considered to be the opening of a separate sacrificial hall.

Wait until the Hungry Ghost Festival to worship, offer offerings, and start crying about how difficult it is for you to grow up, and what you didn’t do well...

In Xiaqiu Village, the village elders organize ancestor worship and light lanterns all night.

The Hungry Ghost Festival in the Ming Dynasty was very lively. There are Ming Dynasty essays, such as "West Lake" written by Zhang Dai on July 15th.

There is nothing to see in the West Lake in July and a half, except for the people in July and a half...



On July 15th, Zhu Xi went back. He had to participate in the ancestor worship. He now learned well and satisfied Zhu Yuanzhang, so when he worshiped the ancestors, he was only one step behind the prince Zhu Biao and stood behind the prince.

If he did not satisfy Zhu Yuanzhang, he would have no choice but to stand behind Prince Zhu Biao during the ancestor worship ceremony.

There is no way, he is the second child and his position is fixed.

There will be many people swimming in the Qinhuai River tonight and it will be lively, so people from Xiaqiu Village will not go out and join in the fun.

Zhu Wentian nipped all possible accidents in the cradle, even with the guards of the Prince's Palace.

For example, someone deliberately looks for trouble, like those who pretended to be beggars or cheated in lottery.

After the key check, there is a problem, but the person further behind cannot be found, which means that someone is hiding deeper. What is the purpose? Just to get some money?

It doesn't matter whether the friends go to play or not. Everyone cleans the glass lamps and prepares to eat sheep and scorpion hotpot in the evening.

Sheep scorpion is the backbone of a sheep. The backbone of a sheep looks like a scorpion as a whole.

When it comes to drinking soup, spine is better than ribs because there is more bone marrow in the spine.

If you want to eat bone marrow alone, it is better to get more bone marrow from big bones than from the spine.

After dinner this morning, the little girl Ling'er led the team out to buy it. She bought a lot of mutton and asked the other party to put the backbone into the water with the sheep.

Therefore, the mutton for lunch will be eaten in lamb and scorpion pot in the evening, and the rest will be served on ice. Tomorrow morning, we will have mutton siomai, and we will have sizzling mutton at noon.

"I'm a bad visitor. I'm here uninvited!" When shopkeeper Xu came over in the evening, he opened his mouth without taking any food.

"I see there are many people there, otherwise I would have gone over and invited you to drink." Li Chang stood up.

"The person eating is the kitchen manager. It's useless to count on me. Huh? Where's the soap?"

Shopkeeper Xu went to wash his hands while he was talking and found that the soap box disappeared. This was wrong. Others didn't have soap. How could Xiaqiu Village be out of stock?

He already knew what Xiaqiu Village was like. The soap originated from Xiaqiu Village, as well as glass mirrors, rock candy and other things.

"There is a transparent glass bottle, press it with your hand, and there is hand sanitizer inside.

It's autumn, the weather is dry, the soap is not oily, and the hand sanitizer contains glycerin to moisturize the skin.

When the weather gets cold, there is anti-challenge cream in the village. I will give you some and you can use it on the guests staying here. "

The manager found that it was good to have a lively restaurant next to it. If Fuhua Building was also bought, people would not always be seen passing by the store like now.

The key point is that there is a ten-foot-high earthen wall between the two stores, making them invisible to each other.

Now that the earthen wall has been demolished, a three-foot-high fence is made using pieces of old bamboo. The bamboo pieces are spaced two feet apart and can be tied with a hemp rope to block it.

When the greenhouse is built like this, the edge here is open, so I don't feel uncomfortable walking in the middle with the wooden wall of the greenhouse on one side and the mud wall on the other.

As for the people from the opposite side coming over, if they really want to come over, can a ten-foot-high wall stop them? Just a rope.

Once the wall is removed, there will be glass on the east side of the greenhouse here, so that when the sun rises, it will shine right into the greenhouse.

"I plan to raise the bungalows in the six yards behind. If one family comes here, there will be no need to occupy two yards."

When it comes to accommodation, shopkeeper Xu has a new idea, building a second floor to increase space.

He saw that the back of the store in Xiaqiu Village was a two-story building. Except during sunset, it would not affect the light in the courtyard behind him.

The second floor of Xiaqiu Village has a small area of ​​​​blocking the sunset, that is, one yard cannot see the sunset, but the other five are fine.

After listening to shopkeeper Xu, he came up with an idea: "You might as well use a brick-concrete structure, which has already been used in some buildings in the imperial city.

There are specialized construction sites for grinding stone, burning cement, and grinding cement. If you have many connections, go to them to buy. The same goes for bricks.

Building a second-story building with a brick-concrete structure is fast. Here, His Royal Highness the Prince took the initiative to build a second-story wooden building, which required a lot of work on the mortise and tenon joints.

The earlier the building of the restaurant was built, the earlier it would have been occupied, not to mention that there was a shortage of wood for the imperial city. "

"Alas!" Shopkeeper Xu sighed: "Actually, the most lacking thing is craftsmen. The craftsmen who work for you come from the imperial court. How can I find them?"

"Fifty coins a day, I will bring you 200 craftsmen who are very skilled in building houses. One of them will be given 200 coins a day."

The mayor thought of a team, a particularly useful team that could build normal houses and even more with bricks and concrete.

"My Fuhua Building only has six courtyards and two floors, which can't be used by 200 people."

Shopkeeper Xu felt his scalp numb when he thought about the number of people. How could he build a house with so many people?

"It's settled. I'll ask people to come and use as much as they can, and the others will build a house for the library and work for a month."

The head of the village said that after drinking, don't be in a hurry and wait until the guards are full before writing a letter and asking the guards to take them to Xiaqiu Village.

When it's time to celebrate the festival, people from Xiaqiu Village will drive carriages and carry lanterns to Xuancheng. On the night and early morning of the Ghost Festival...

Thinking of delivering the letter, Li Chang slapped his forehead and said, "Today I should send food and wine to the people guarding the ship. It's a festival."

"Let's go." The person in charge of the kitchen stood up and prepared things.

The boatman always stayed on the boat after he came over. He usually bought food at the dock like other boatmen, and the food money was given by Xiaqiu Village.

Today is a festival, and it would be pitiful to ask them to buy food. Sometimes the Hungry Ghost Festival is bustling everywhere, and they stay on the boat.

A group of people pushed a wheelbarrow out. Zhu Wentian looked at the wheelbarrow and began to think deeply.

Two-quarters of an hour later, the person who delivered the wine and food came back, and the 'executive chef' reported: "When I went there, they were about to buy wine and some braised food, and we caught up."

"From then on, they were there, delivering meals every day. There were four people in a boat, two came down to live in the house, and two were left to guard."

The captain decided to take more care of her. No one should be left alone on the ship, as there would always be bad people who would cause trouble.

Even now, there are still many people robbing and stealing things on the streets. With the addition of bullies and bullies, the government is simply too busy.

There are 20 troops stationed in Nanjing, nearly half a million people, and two county yamen are in charge.

Shopkeeper Xu was advising at this moment: "It's not easy for four people to guard a boat. Two people can't stand it. Instead of giving things, it's better to give money. They eat better than other boatmen, and other people will have evil intentions."

The head of the village was slightly startled, then nodded vigorously: "Indeed, Yingtian Mansion is not Xuancheng County after all, but a village in Xuancheng. I am busy working and making money all day long, and I forget how to do bad things."
