Chapter 165 Sacrifice
Chapter 165 Sacrifice
The day of the family sacrifice coincided with New Year's Day, and Shen Yuzhu had been busy for several days without a trace. Only Shen Yuheng talked to him in such a large Shen family.Although Qiutang is considered to be half of the Shen family, but his mother is a side branch after all, and his background is not considered glorious, on such a day, the Shen family, which claims to be a famous family, naturally did not invite him.
Jiang Yu was picked up early in the morning. After washing up, he changed into the Tang suit trimmed with white red flowers that he had prepared yesterday. After dressing up, he looked a bit like a young master of the Republic of China.
After breakfast, the 27 vehicles headed for Changming Mountain in the suburbs of Nanshi in three divisions. Shen Sheng led the way, while Shen Yuzhu and Jiang Yu sat in the front of the second-wheel vehicle. Reporters only dared to film the situation from afar.
After more than an hour, the speed of the car finally slowed down, and it took another ten minutes before it stopped completely.
Starting from Shen Jiang, the people in the car came down one after another. These Shen family members wearing uniform Tang suits stood quietly on the road. Some of them had gray temples, and some were just babbling.
Jiang Yu only took one look, then quickly lowered his head, Shen Yuzhu patted him on the shoulder, and led him to the front.
There, Shen Shen raised his glasses, as if he was talking to the long-haired man beside him. Mrs. Shen stood aside respectfully, and occasionally smiled along with her.
When she saw Shen Yuzhu leading Jiang Yu, Shen Shen didn't react, but Mrs. Shen's expression darkened instantly.
Shen Yuzhu pretended not to see Mrs. Shen's face, and led her to Shen Yuheng's side, "Just wait there obediently, and I'll take you back after the sacrifice. Be obedient now."
In front of dozens of Shen family members, Shen Yuzhu smiled and patted his head, Jiang Yu didn't deliberately avoid it, and quietly endured it.
Mrs. Shen's beautiful nails were almost cut off by herself!
"The auspicious time has come, let's start." The long-haired man in a white Tang suit said, Jiang Yu raised his head and glanced at him unconsciously.
I don't know what this person's identity is. When Mr. Shen was alive, he respected him a lot. Now that Mr. Shen is gone, Shen Sheng respects him no less than the old man, and for some reason... Jiang Yu always feels that he is a little familiar, always I think I should have seen him somewhere, but I can't remember exactly where.
There was a layer of fog in his mind, no matter how much he tried to scratch his heart, no matter how he tried to remember, it was just a little bit missing, and it was just this little bit, no matter how hard he thought about it, he still couldn't figure it out.
The priest's ceremony was complicated and hectic. Jiang Yu followed Shen Yuheng, watching the long-haired man hand Shen Xiang the head incense for him to light, and watching Shen Yuzhu read something like an ancient memorial to the distance with a strange accent.
In the middle of the reading, he felt a strange sense of desolation for no reason, and felt sad. For a moment, his heart was full of memories. He thought of his own fate, and he was so sad that he could hardly breathe.
Just when Jiang Yu was stuck in his emotions and couldn't extricate himself, he suddenly felt pain in his waist!
"Hey!" Taking a breath of cold air, Jiang Yu's mouth groaned in pain, and all the sadness and oldness disappeared in an instant, only that Shen Yuheng's attack was too dark, and his waist really hurt!
"What's the matter with you?" Shen Yuheng asked him in a low voice, "It is said that this sacrificial oration was read to those undead, why do you listen with a painful expression?"
Jiang Yu "..."
Rely on it!
"I heard from my old father that this sacrificial letter was written by a person with that ability. It is specially written to reassure souls and suppress ghosts. It is very useful. What do you think?"
Jiang Yu "..."
He showed a shy smile, nodded, and gritted his teeth.
Hehe finished, before Shen Yuheng knocked his head, he quickly turned his head away.However, the moment he turned his head, he unexpectedly met the long-haired man standing next to Shen Chen right in front of him.
The two stared at each other from a distance, the man's pupils were extremely dark.For a moment, Jiang Yu even felt as if his soul would be sucked away.
Fortunately, the man quickly looked away, and Jiang Yu was able to lower his head again. It was only then that he realized that he was already drenched in sweat.
I don't know who this man is...
The sacrifice is divided into several steps: reading the sacrificial text, burning the scriptures, offering high incense, and finally praying for blessings.
After all this was over, it was almost 01:30 noon. Fortunately, Jiang Yu ate an extra steamed bun when he woke up in the morning, otherwise he would have fainted from hunger.
"...The old and the new have changed, Shen Shen, the seal holder of the Shen family, worshiped him, and since then handed over the power of the Shen family, and the eldest son, Shen Yuzhu, has been in charge of the family. Shen Sheng has since resigned... From then on, he will die without regret!"
After Shen Shen finished speaking, Shen Yuzhu stood up, took the green jade wrench in his hand and put it on for herself, and then led the Shen family to hold high incense, and under the witness of the long-haired man, knelt down three times and kowtowed nine times, and sent down to guard The poisonous oath of the Shen family.
Jiang Yu watched him the whole time, until it was all over, Shen Yuzhu took his hand and walked back to the car, he didn't realize it, "Mr. Shen, you..."
"Well," Shen Yuzhu turned her head, completely locked him in her arms, pinched his chin and kissed him deeply, swallowing up all the questions he was about to utter.
Afterwards, they kept meeting and entertaining guests, and the two of them rarely even saw each other except for this moment of intimacy in the car.
However, even so, Jiang Yu also realized that his identity in the Shen family was different.
And this difference is specifically reflected in the fact that the seven aunts and eight aunts of the Shen family started looking for him.
Jiang Yu almost froze his mouth from laughing, and when he saw a woman in a cheongsam, his muscles twitched in conditioned reflex.
After a long time, another week passed like this. On a certain day when Shen Yuzhu finally entered the ancestral hall again, the long-awaited Mrs. Shen finally got her chance.
