Chapter 275 Worship
Chapter 275 Worship
Tang Qiu didn't feel any guilt at all as she went offline right after coming online. She happily went to catch fish to make canned fish.
When selling fish, not all the big fish were sold, so there were still some to eat.
This time, Tang Qiu caught ten fish at once, slaughtered them all and pickled them. Then she drove to Song Zhe's house and bought two boxes of empty glass bottles. It happened that there were some poor-looking fruits at home that were not suitable for selling, so she would make some canned fruits later.
Seeing that Tang Qiu bought so many things, Chen Jie came over to help. As for Lele, he was now sitting in his grandfather's tram and taking a walk with his grandfather.
While Chen Jie was washing and cutting the fruits, Tang Qiu started to set up the oil pan to fry the fish. Geng Yi arrived just as the first pot of fish was fried.
He didn't consider himself an outsider at all and walked into the kitchen following the smell: "I can smell the fragrance from far away, hehe."
As he was about to reach out to take it, Chen Jie stopped him: "The first pot you just took out should be offered to the gods and ancestors."
Tang Qiu looked puzzled, but Geng Yi patted his forehead and said, "Look at me, I forgot about it because of greed."
Geng Yi went to wash his hands, then said to Tang Qiu: "I'll watch the pot, you go and do it."
Tang Qiu was still confused: "This, is there any explanation for this?" She had never done this before.
Chen Jie said, "We have gods to worship at home, so it's fine at ordinary times, but when we make something delicious, we have to offer the first pot to the gods."
Tang Qiu was puzzled: "But, my family doesn't offer those."
Chen Jie insisted: "But you have ancestors, you are a person with roots. Your grandparents have passed away, they can't be around anymore, and the good life we can live is all due to their hard work. So, you have to be grateful and tell them that we, as the younger generation, have not forgotten them."
Tang Qiu stopped talking after hearing that. Although she was not the original owner, she occupied the original owner's body. Moreover, after hearing what Chen Jie said, she actually felt a little guilty. Even though they would worship their ancestors during the Qingming Festival in Yaowang Valley, she had never worshipped the original owner's grandparents here.
Thinking of this, Tang Qiu asked Chen Jie: "Auntie, how should we do this?"
Chen Jie told her: "It's not that complicated. Put five pieces of fried fish on the plate, go out and worship in four directions, and then come back and worship in four directions." Chen Jie was about to say something, but she found that there was no such thing as ancestral ranking in Tang Qiu's family. She sighed.
"It's okay. Just bring it back after the worship."
Chen Jie did not blame Tang Qiu for forgetting her grandmother who loved her to the core. Her grandfather was fine, as Tang Qiu had never seen him. But her grandmother raised her from less than a month old to sixteen years old, and finally passed away because she could not bear it anymore.
However, Chen Jie also understood that Tang Qiu had lost her memory and she had forgotten everything.
What's more, to be honest, the most unfilial person is her father. After she angered her own father to death, it has been ten years since her mother passed away. Tang Qiu is already 26 years old this year, and he has never come back once.
So, she really couldn't say that Tang Qiu was ignorant, because she had no elders to teach her to do these things.
Tang Qiu went out with the plate. She didn't know that Chen Jie cursed her original father hundreds of times in her heart.
Anyway, Geng Yi didn't dare to make a sound beside him.
Until Tang Qiu came back with a bowl: "Auntie, what about these?"
Chen Jie looked at Tang Qiu and saw that he had finally let go of the unhappiness in his heart. She smiled and said, "Next, let's eat and drink!"
Tang Qiu said: "Oh", this is not difficult, but she really didn't know that she needed to do this.
"Okay, I'll fry it. Haven't you been wanting to eat it for a long time?"
Geng Yi saw that the atmosphere had returned and said with a smile: "That's right, I was so greedy that I couldn't concentrate on work the whole afternoon. So I came back early."
As he spoke, Geng Yi took a piece of fried fish and took a bite: "Oh, it's so delicious!" Just as he was about to take the second bite, Geng Yi suddenly said: "Oh, by the way, Xi Wen and Ai Yuan are not coming back today. Xi Wen is going on a business trip and said he would take Ai Yuan on a honeymoon."
Tang Qiu and Chen Jie were dumbfounded: "No, why didn't they say hello before going out?"
Geng Yi shrugged directly: "Ai Yuan said that Lele can be left to Qiuqiu. They have been married for such a long time and have never gone out to play. They also said that they will be back before you start school."
Tang Qiu was speechless: "No, what about Xi Wen's company? Wasn't he so busy before? He was so busy that he couldn't go home. How come he suddenly has time to travel?"
Geng Yi said, "Before, it was Xi Wen's mother who was looking for trouble and made Xi Wen unable to do anything. Now that Xi Wen has sent his mother back home to live out her retirement, she naturally has time. Besides, didn't Xi Wen work at home before? It's the same now. With Xi Wen's ability, it's easy for him to handle those things."
Chen Jie frowned: "This Ai Yuan is getting more and more outrageous. How old is Lele? How can she recognize someone at night?"
Tang Qiu hurriedly advised: "Aunt, they want to go and show that they have a good relationship as husband and wife. It's better than Ai Yuan holding her breath at home, right? Besides, with Xiao Di here, Lele will be obedient."
Geng Yi couldn't help but click his tongue as he watched. Ai Yuan must have done a lot of good deeds in her previous life to be able to meet Tang Qiu in this life.
Although the words he said in front of Xi Wen's mother to make Ai Yuan proud were intended to embarrass Xi Wen's mother, what he said was also true.
If Ai Yuan hadn't met Tang Qiu, her marriage to Xi Wen would never have been so smooth. It was Tang Qiu who used his connections to fill the gap between her and Xi Wen.
Geng Yi has run a company for so many years, and he knows better than anyone how difficult it is for an ordinary person to move up step by step. If it weren't for his father's ability, if it weren't for the support of the eldest brother Wang Zhenyu and the Wang family, their company would have been squeezed out and nothing would have been left as soon as it emerged.
This is the business class gap.
Ai Yuan was just an ordinary student who worked in an agency after graduation. She would never meet Xi Wen even if she jumped up in her whole life. This was cruel, but it was also true.
Xi Wen is a top student from a prestigious university, and he is always number one. Perhaps graduates from other majors are worthless when they enter society, but it is different for the Law Department. Top students in the Law Department are first of all the favorite students of their teachers, and the teachers in the Law Department are the top figures in the legal profession.
Therefore, after graduation, Xi Wen has a bright future as long as he is willing.
That's why Xi Wen's mother felt that Ai Yuan had ruined Xi Wen. Because of Ai Yuan, Xi Wen's life trajectory had been greatly deviated.
Coupled with the age difference between the two, the gap between the two people, who already had a huge gap, became even bigger.
This gap will always exist between the two people and will deteriorate over time.
Xi Wen will one day hate Ai Yuan for ruining his future, and Ai Yuan will be frustrated because she has been trying to please Xi Wen's mother. In other words, from the beginning, the two will have no intersection, and Ai Yuan, as a single mother, will raise the child amid the criticism of the village.
But no matter which one it is, the result would not be what it is now.
The key point is that Tang Qiu never asked Ai Yuan for anything in return for his efforts for her. Ai Yuan was so kind to let Tang Qiu take care of the child, and Tang Qiu accepted it so calmly, and even helped persuade Ai Yuan's mother. This explains everything.
