Mrs. Xiao is on the left, and grandparents are on the right.
Xiao Jingtao and his wife are at the bottom left of the old lady. Mr. Leng is at the lower right of his grandparents. It's not that he disrespects him as a president, it's just that on such a ceremonial occasion, he can only sit in this position. It not only shows the Xiao family's respect for him, but also shows the possibility of Leng Xiao's marriage.
After that, the positions are listed in descending order according to their status.
Of course, only the person with the highest status in each family can take the seat, as for family members or others, they are standing by their side.
Only the Xiao family daughter's ceremony of recognizing their ancestors and returning to their ancestry seemed so solemn. If it's another family, don't care if it's an illegitimate daughter or something, or just hold a banquet and recognize their existence, or just go to a genealogy.
In front of Mrs. Xiao and the others, there was a futon.
Xiao Yao knelt down in front of the futon, and then shouted, "Xiao Yao, the daughter of the Xiao family, kneels and worships Grandma!"
Three more bangs.
This is the beginning of the real ceremony of recognizing the ancestors and returning to the ancestors.
One by one, bow down to the elders of the higher rank in the clan.
"Okay," Mrs. Xiao hurriedly stood up, wiping tears from her eyes.
Lin Jingya looked at the crying old lady Xiao, she said, "Mom, Yao'er is back today, it's a big day, you should be happy."
The old lady Xiao wiped her tears and said with a smile, "Yes, yes, look at my old lady."
Li Hongxiu said happily, "Sister-in-law, you should smile more when you are old."
"Hehe," Old Madam Xiao said happily, "Hongxiu, it's really difficult for you." Although Xiao Yao is their granddaughter, she is the lifeblood of the Xiao family.
Li Hongxiu smiled and said, "What is difficult or not, Yao'er is my granddaughter."
The three elderly ladies did not say any more.
Because Xiao Yao had to continue calling people.
Xiao Yao faced his grandfather and grandmother again, knelt and kowtowed three heads and shouted, "Grandpa, grandma!"
"Okay, okay, kid, get up." Grandpa and grandmother said distressedly.
After Xiao Yao kowtowed to his grandfather and grandmother, he kowtowed to Xiao Jingtao and his wife, "Uncle, aunt!"
"Okay, kid, get up quickly." Xiao Jingtao and his wife quickly got up and helped him up, "Son, just come over, just come back."
Just come back!
These four words, for ordinary people, are very simple to go home.
However, for the Xiao family, how heavy and difficult these four words are!
The elders of the Xiao family all knelt down and worshipped. The three brothers Xiao Yimu were the same generation as Xiao Yao, so they didn't need to bow down, just hug each other.
The rest are some clan elders and side members of the Xiao family. Some of them are of high seniority and do not need to bow down. As long as they say hello and say hello, they are recognized.
Soon the first ceremony was over.
The second ceremony is to worship the ancestors of the Xiao family.
Although the Xiao family ancestral hall is large, of course, the Xiao family ancestral hall can only be entered by the Xiao family.
However, the thousand-year-old ancestral hall of the Xiao family is the most mysterious existence to outsiders.
Because of the legend, the Xiao family has gone through ups and downs for thousands of years. Even if the emperor wanted the Xiao family to smash the family and wipe out the family, but when they wanted to break into the Xiao family's ancestral hall, they couldn't enter anyway. Go, as long as you are within ten meters of the Xiao family ancestral hall, you will be bounced back.
No matter whether the Xiao family rises or falls, the people of the Xiao family will not move the ancestral hall. No matter how far they go, there will always be one or two clan elders guarding them in the ancestral hall.
What secrets does the Xiao Family Ancestral Hall hold?
Everyone was very curious. It's just that no matter how curious they are, they don't have the chance to step into the ancestral hall to take a look.
Xiao Zhenxin, Xiao Jingtao and the three brothers of the Xiao family took Xiao Yao into the Xiao family.
According to the rules of the ancestors, the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family cannot enter the ancestral hall. It's not that the Xiao family has any prejudice against their daughter-in-law, but because there have been many times in the past thousand years, the Xiao family's daughter-in-law has either been sent by the imperial power, political enemies, or someone else to be a spy. The purpose is to inquire about the Xiao family's ancestral hall. secret.
For this reason, the ancestors had a ban, not allowing daughters-in-law to enter the ancestral hall.
This ban has continued to this day.
Before Xiao Yao arrived at the Xiao family's ancestral hall, he felt the strong and simple air from the ancestral hall.
Opening the door of the ancestral hall, what Xiao Yao saw at a glance were the rows of spiritual tablets on the high platform. The spiritual tablet in the middle had the words "Xiao Tengfei" written on it, and there were red candles lit around it.
Xiao Jingtao came to Yiling and said solemnly, "Xiao Yao, kneel down and meet the ancestors!"
Xiao Yao obediently knelt down and kowtowed to them, "Xiao Yao, daughter of the Xiao family, pay tribute to the ancestors!" He kowtowed three times again.
After Xiao Yao got up, Xiao Jingtao solemnly said to the various spirit cards, "The ancestors, the descendants are not filial. 17 years ago, the descendants of the Xiao family, Xiao Yao, were left to live in a foreign country, and they officially returned today. The responsibility of the country as the daughter of destiny."
Afterwards, Xiao Jingtao said to his three sons, "Xiao Yimu, Xiao Yilin, Xiao Yisen obey orders!"
The three brothers knelt down and said in unison, "Xiao Yimu", "Xiao Yilin" and "Xiao Yisen"
"Listen to orders!"
Xiao Jingtao continued solemnly and solemnly, "The birth of the Destiny Girl will bring great difficulties to the country. From now on, you must do your best to assist the Destiny Girl, or else the family law will be enforced and the Xiao family will be expelled!"
"Order!" They chorused again.
Xiao Jingtao then moved the candle in front of the "Xiao Tengfei" spirit card with his hand.
"Look, what happened?"
"Look, what's going on?" A sharp-eyed person pointed at the strangeness that appeared above the Xiao family and said in surprise.
After everyone heard the sound of surprise, they all looked at the unusual scene in surprise.
"Then, is that Buddha's light?" Someone asked in surprise.
That's right, the phenomenon reflected in front of them was like a huge Buddha's light shrouding the Xiao family's ancestral hall, dazzling.
"Yeah, it's very similar to Buddha Light." Someone responded.
For modern technology, Buddha Light is just a colorful halo, nothing mysterious.
It is only produced by the diffraction of sunlight and water droplets in the cloud and mist. Only when the sun, the object and the cloud and mist are in an inclined straight line can the Buddha's light be generated.
How can there be a true character that produces the true Buddha's light?
The most basic condition for the generation of Buddha's light is the sun.
Of course, the problem now is that today is just cloudy and there is no sun. Without the direct rays of the sun, how could there be conditions to survive that Buddha's light?
No one knows how the Buddha's light suddenly appeared, but everyone can guess that the appearance of this Buddha's light is absolutely inseparable from the mystery of the ancestral hall.
