Chapter 172 Planning and Punishing the Rare New House (6)

But now Wang Dali and others are just beaten up, and they will be alive and kicking after a period of rest. When people in the village see them, they will think of the disgusting things they have done, and will also hint that they should not cause trouble with the Mo family.

This is exactly the effect Mo Yan wants to achieve when designing this play!

In a blink of an eye, it was the sixth day of June. On this day, the beams of the Mo familys new house were put up. This is the first happy event for the Mo family after they fled to the capital, and the Mo family attaches great importance to it.

Before the official ceremony, most of the people in Liuyang Village came over, because not only was there a lot of fun to watch, but after the ceremony, according to customary etiquette, the Mo family would also distribute candies, steamed buns and other food, which for the villagers, It's an irresistible temptation.

The beam-laying ceremony in Dachu is very grand. Even ordinary people will complete the five procedures of "sacrifice the beam", "lay the beam", "receive the package", "throw the beam" and "wait for the craftsman", in order to pray for the permanent stability of the house and a happy life. .

The offering table has been set up in front of the main room. The offering table is filled with incense candles, pigs, fish, chickens, geese, eggs, tofu, incense candles and other sacrifices.

Before erecting the beams, offering sacrifices to the beams is an essential procedure. Mo Qingze stepped forward in person, and together with Master Lu and others, they carried the main beam with red paper to the altar table. Then Master Lu presided over the ceremony of the beam. He looked solemn and sang dark sacrificial words while holding hands Hold a wine glass and toast.

After the beam ceremony, the craftsmen tied ropes to the main beam and asked several people on the roof to pull the main beam up. At this moment, firecrackers were going off, and Master Lu was singing the song of beaming on the roof, shouting: "Going to beam, good luck!"

After the main beam was stable, Mo Qingze, the head of the family, placed the "grain colorful bag" containing red dates, peanuts, rice, wheat, and evergreens sent by people with good connections in the village in the center of the beam, and placed the red Cloth draped on the beams symbolizes a good harvest.

After the beam loading is completed, the next step is to "receive the package". Master Lu wrapped the fruits with beautiful meanings in red cloth, and while saying good things, he threw the cloth bag into the basket held by Mo Qingze's hands, which meant catching the treasure and bringing wealth throughout his life.

The most lively procedure in the entire beam-raising ceremony is the "beam-throwing".

Before the "Liang Throwing" started, the villagers crowded forward, because "Liang Throwing" means throwing the candies, peanuts, steamed buns, copper coins, etc. prepared by the Mo family from the beams, and whoever grabs them belongs to them.

Seeing so many people coming to rob, Mo Yan held the hands of her siblings and was very happy. The more people rob, it means that the family will be "rich".

Although there is no scientific basis, isn't it just for good luck and excitement?

Just watching the crowding around, with people being pushed down from time to time, Mo Yan frowned and said to Mo Qingze, who was blushing at the side: "Dad, let's put aside the 'throwing away the beam' for now. Let's first classify these people according to gender. Keep the old and the young separate, otherwise there will be some harm if they are crowded together."

There were really too many people coming, and there were still many people pushing forward from behind. The adults were fine, but the children were easily pushed down. It would be very unlucky if something unexpected happened on such a big day.

Mo Qingze understood Mo Yan's concerns as soon as he saw it, and quickly shouted to the people at the front: "Don't squeeze, everyone, don't squeeze!"

Speaking, he asked Lin Yong and others standing nearby to help separate the villagers according to men, women, old and young.

Knowing the concerns of the Mo family, looking at the crowded place, it was indeed not good. The villagers were anxious for the Mo family to "throw the blame", so they cooperated and went to the place where they should go to stand.

The children were surrounded by children, so they were evenly matched in grabbing things. They were all very happy, feeling that the Mo family were really good people who took care of children like them!
