Chapter 214 Beam Raising Ceremony

   Liu Qingshan walked back with Gu Junshan on his back, feeling like he was carrying a big ice cube on his back.

  Going all the way back to Jiapigou, it was already noon, and I met a few villagers who had finished their work, and they were shocked when they saw Liu Qingshan carrying the unconscious Gu Junshan on his back.

  Da Zhang Luo happened to be among them, and couldn't help but start nagging: "I just said, I can't go to that place."

   "Uncle Zhang Luo, don't talk nonsense, Researcher Gu is an old disease, and it just happened."

  Liu Qingshan hastened to refute the rumor, otherwise, it might be so evil.

  The old branch secretary also hastened to promote positively: "Researchers Gu have said that the stone steamed buns in Mantoutan are dinosaur eggs, and that big paw print is a dinosaur footprint fossil. Don't spread it in the future."

   Everyone was dubious and looked at Zhang Ganzi one after another, knowing that this guy must be telling the truth.

   "Pole, what's going on?"

  Dashuai Zhang also appeared and asked anxiously.

  Zhang Ganzi scratched the back of his head: "Anyway, there are a few of us left, and they are all fine. Dumb and Qingshan also got on that rock, and it's fine."

   Everyone is still a little dubious, after all, someone is unconscious.

  Liu Qingshan also stood up and clarified: "My master said that this researcher Gu was invaded by cold air when he was doing research before, so the root cause of the disease fell, and it has nothing to do with Mantoutan."

  The villagers still believed what Liu Qingshan said, and they couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

  Zhang Ganzi also got excited this time: "Da Zhang Luo, and the handsome man, don't brag about your courage in front of me from now on. I dare to break into the Mantou beach, do you dare?"

  Dashuai Zhang was also unwilling, and explained in his mouth: "I went home to get the butcher's knife, and found that the knife was blunt, so I sharpened it for a while, and then came out to look for you, and you all left."

   "Hey, I think you are not sharpening knives, but foreign workers?"

  Zhang Ganzi was grinning, with an expression on his face that he didn't want to be beaten.

  Dashuai Zhang was also angry: "Zhang Ganzi, if you kill pigs in your pig farm in the future, don't look for me if you have the ability!"

   "What's the matter, without you Zhang butcher, how can I still eat hairy pigs?" Zhang Ganzi also yelled.

  Amidst their quarrel, Liu Qingshan had already gone home with Gu Junshan on his back.

  Put the person on the kang head, lie flat, and cover the quilt, Liu Qingshan followed the gesture of the master, poured Gu Junshan half a small bowl of white wine, and the old head woke up faintly.

  Looking around, he managed to squeeze out a smile: "Thank you, thank you, this is an old problem of mine, and I am causing you trouble."

  Liu Qingshan waved his hand: "My master said, you are a strong-willed person. If you were someone else, you would have been unable to bear this pain. You deserve our respect."

  Gu Junshan smiled wryly and shook his head: "I also feel like I can't take it anymore."

   "Dumb dumb."

  The dumb grandfather suddenly gestured, Liu Qingshan looked at it for a while, and suddenly showed joy: "Master, can you cure Researcher Gu's illness?"

  Gu Junshan waved his hand: "It's useless, I have been to many big hospitals, there is no good way."

   "My master has never lied. He said he can cure it, and he will definitely be cured."

  Liu Qingshan has strong confidence in the dumb grandfather.

  Gu Junshan nodded towards the dumb grandfather: "Then thank you first."

   But in his heart, there was no hope.

  The dumb grandfather gestured again, saying that he was going back to the mountain to dispense medicine, but he was grabbed by Liu Qingshan, no matter how anxious he was, he had to finish his lunch.

  In the afternoon, Liu Qingshan sent Gutou back to the commune. He really respected this old researcher from the bottom of his heart.

   When he came back, he stopped by to buy two firecrackers and some candy, because tomorrow, the beams of his new house will be erected.

  When building a house in the countryside, erecting beams is the most important thing, and generally a Feng Shui master is required to preside over it.

  Liu Qingshan didn't really believe this, so he entrusted this matter to the old carpenter who worked.

  Generally speaking, traditional carpenters are considered half-feng shui masters.

  The next day, the weather was fine and it was a good day. At noon, the beam-raising ceremony officially began.

  Many villagers came to help and watched the excitement by the way. Just in time for school to end at noon, all the children in the village basically came to report, because on such a happy day like Shangliang, there is candy to eat.

  For a while, the front of the new house was full of people, very lively.

   "Give way, give way, don't bump into each other!"

  The master carpenter yelled loudly, and directed the eight stick boys to start lifting the beams to the house with ropes.

  The first thing to go up is of course the middle girder. The girder is placed correctly, and the second girder below is a reference.

  As the saying goes, the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. This is the truth.

  The master carpenter is on the east side, and the old bricklayer is on the west side, directing the installation of the beams.

  The girder has been decorated, with red cloth tied on it and copper coins nailed to it.

   At this time, there are still a lot of copper coins in the folk, and basically everyone has a string or two.

  Children play shuttlecocks in winter, and they all use a lot of money to make them.

  According to local customs, "The Grandfather is here" is written on the girder.

  This grandpa, of course, is Taigong Jiang. It is said that after Jiang Taigong became a god, he forgot to confer himself.

  Anyway, there are many similar legends, and the common people are willing to arrange for these widely praised characters.

  Everything was ready, the master carpenter hummed and sang the song of raising the beam: "Lifting the beam, beaming, happy, sweet, everyone eats candy..."

  Liu Qingshan took a small dustpan and started spreading candies and pastries.

  In the past, we used to sprinkle small steamed buns, but the ones that fell on the ground were too dirty, so it would be better to sprinkle candies.

  The little kids cheered and scrambled on the ground.

  Amidst the cheers, there was also the sound of crying and howling. Needless to say, it was Er Mengzi, who just grabbed a piece of candy. Seeing that other people's pockets were full, of course he was about to cry.

  The fourth and fifth were still very interesting, and one of them put a small handful in the pocket of the second man, and the crying man started giggling again.

  The master carpenter continued to hum: "On the head of the beam, princes will be born in generations from the ancestors, on the waist of the beam, the elders will be elders from generation to generation, on the tail of the beam, generations will be born from the ancestors..."

   I don't know which kid is quick to talk: "Grandfathers drink cold water for generations!"

   It caused everyone to burst into laughter, and the master carpenter continued to sing the song: "It is the ancestors who have been officials for generations."

  After singing the Shangliang song, Liu Qingshan asked the children to light the firecrackers, crackling, very lively.

  After the beam-raising ceremony, of course there were a few tables of wine to be set up. Liu Qingshan paid respects around the tables, and couldn't help but ask, "Where's the boss, why didn't you come?"

   "It's still cats on the kang at home." Da Zhang Luo responded.

   "Still shivering under the blanket, the boss is very sick this time."

  Looks like the boss uncle is still not ready, Liu Qingshan decided to take a look at night, don't really fall into the root of the problem.

  Although he doesn't know how to see a doctor, the boss uncle obviously has a psychological shadow, and Liu Qingshan is still confident in doing psychological counseling.

  The weather is warmer now, and the mosquitoes and flies have not come out yet, so when we have dinner, the whole family is in the courtyard, which is cooler.

  Grandpa and Professor Wang, as usual, still have to drink two cups less. Listening to Liu Qingshan's talk about going to Mantou Beach during the day and finding dinosaur eggs and dinosaur footprint fossils, everyone listened with gusto.

   "Brother, Shan Xing and I are also going to go to the dinosaur eggs, and bring them back to the eldest sister, and we will definitely hatch baby dinosaurs. The eldest sister is the best at hatching eggs!"

  The little fourth child was visibly excited, his big eyes sparkling, and it would be fun to raise a few little dinosaurs.

  Liu Jinfeng couldn't help laughing: "Sifeng, is there anyone who praises you so much?"

  Everyone was talking and laughing, Shan Xing had sharp eyes, and poked Liu Qingshan's arm: "Brother, a guest is coming."

  Liu Qingshan looked at the gate, and found the head of a fox poking its head. Its pointed nose twitched from time to time, probably smelling the aroma of wine.

  Looking at her mother, she saw that Lin Zhi had already found a small bowl, poured half a bowl of wine, and Shan Xingle brought it over to the fox in a dazed way.

   "Here comes a new drinking buddy, let's make one."

  Grandpa Wang has also been used to it for a long time, and he happily raised the small wine cup.

  When the whole family was eating happily, the boss's aunt suddenly came to visit and whispered to Lin Zhi for a while, and then took the little guy away after the fourth child finished eating.

  What's the matter? It's still so mysterious.

Liu Qingshan couldn't help asking his mother, Lin Zhi straightened the hair next to his ear: "Your aunt said that your uncle boss is bewitched, please come to the commune's godmother, once you want to break through, find Caifeng to be a virgin. "

   God of jumping!

  Liu Qingshan blinked hard twice.

  He has no sympathy for these nagging things.

  In the previous life, probably during the summer vacation this year, the fourth child suddenly had a stomach ache.

  Nothing can be cured, Lin Zhi also panicked, so she listened to the tricks of other old ladies and found a Tiaoshen.

  He came and sang and danced, and forced the fourth child with a lot of paper ashes, and finally asked for 20 yuan, but the fart was wrong, and the fourth child was still rolling in pain.

  Finally, it was Liu Qingshan who carried the fourth child to the commune health center. After an examination, it turned out that it was appendicitis, which was almost festering.

  After this incident, Liu Qingshan no longer believed in these things.

  I was thinking about it, when I heard my mother continue nagging: "Oh, everything is going up, and the appearance fee of the dance master is a hundred yuan."

  One hundred yuan is now equivalent to two months' wages of ordinary workers. This is obviously a scam.

   Probably heard that Jiapigou was rich, so he simply opened his mouth wide and ran to make a fortune.

  Liu Qingshan was so angry that he stopped eating and put down his chopsticks: "Then I'll take a look, which fairy house is it?"

  Lin Zhi knew his son best, seeing his appearance, he hurriedly told him: "Sanfeng, you are not allowed to make trouble, otherwise you will complain."

  Liu Qingshan nodded in response, then walked out of the gate, and saw Shan Xing squatting there, watching the red fox licking the wine.

   It had already licked up half the bowl of wine. The red fox raised his head, looked at Liu Qingshan with sparkling eyes, and licked his mouth with his tongue, looking unsatisfied.

  It seems to be saying: Can I have another two or two?

   "You drunkard."

  Liu Qingshan patted it on the head, this guy didn't dodge at all, and squinted his eyes, looking very enjoying it.

  Liu Qingshan's heart suddenly moved: "Haha, Shan Xing, let's go, lead our family's fox fairy, and dance for the boss!"
