Qingming Festival is a traditional festival for the Chinese nation to commemorate their ancestors. Its main form is to worship ancestors and sweep the tombs.

For thousands of years, people have carried out "sacrifice with rituals" activities to solemnly send their longing and respect to their deceased relatives and ancestors.

Why do you need to visit the tombs during the Qingming Festival?

This is because winter goes and spring comes, and plants and trees sprout. When people go to the graves of their ancestors, they will personally check whether the graves collapse due to the arrival of rainy season, or are pierced by foxes and rabbits.

During the worship, weeds are removed from the graves, new soil is added, offering sacrifices to burn pigs, burn incense and wine, burn paper money, and hold simple sacrificial rituals to express nostalgia for ancestors.

Tomb sweeping, different regions also have different customs.

In Su Xiaoman and his hometown, tomb sweeping is also called "going tombs" and "going tombs" because it is a very simple thing for them to visit tombs. They only need to bring some fruits, paper money, firecrackers, their special "lanterns" and "Qingming Hang" to worship.

In Qin Liufu's hometown, worshiping ancestors and tombs was a real physical job, because there were no cemeteries in the rural areas here, and they were buried in the mountains for generations.

More than 99% of these tombs are earth tombs and have not been hardened by lime cement.

Therefore, every year when visiting graves, we have to be removed for the graves. After a whole year of growth, weeds and trees on the mountain are not so easy to remove.

Therefore, every time I visit the grave, it is a physical labor.

People in Qin Liufu's hometown also called tomb sweeping "shuoshan" and "walking on the mountain".

The Qin surname in Qinghe Village had settled here in the late Ming Dynasty, and has a history of hundreds of years.

After hundreds of years of inheritance, it is naturally not just the population of Qinghe Village, but only from generation to generation, and they have been divided into countless branches. These branches are sent to worship their ancestors every year during the Qingming Festival.

Because the clan concept here is very strong (as long as it is a place where boys prefer girls, the clan concept is very strong), the ancestor worship activities of each surname will be very grand.

Especially those ancestral tombs that have been passed down for thousands of years, once worshipped, the scene will really open your eyes.

To worship ancestors, Qinghe Village will start worshiping public tombs on the first Saturday and Sunday after the Spring Equinox every year.

The so-called public tombs are the ancestors of the Qin surname in Qinghe Village. They usually worship these public tombs first before going to each family to worship the ancestral tombs within the five robes.

Whether it is worshiping the public tomb or worshiping the ancestral tombs within the five robes, Qin Liufu was very active.

On the one hand, worshiping ancestors is what descendants should do.

On the other hand, the fruit app appeared in Qin Liufu's mind for no reason. Such a fantasy thing made him feel full of awe of certain things.

Therefore, Qin Liufu not only actively participated in the worship activities, but also paid privately when worshiping the public tombs, which made the reputation of ancestor worship very grand. He also invited clans from all over the country to participate, spreading the reputation of the Qin family in Qinghe Village.

While Qin Liufu was busy worshiping his ancestors, his elder brother and sister-in-law also brought elite soldiers and powerful generals to prepare for the fairy fruit branch in Guangdong Province.

I have to open so many branches in so many cities at once. If I have to find shops one by one and then find someone to design and decorate, I won’t even think about opening this year.

Therefore, my sister-in-law followed Qin Liufu's instructions and whenever she went to a city, she would find the strongest local real estate agent to cooperate with her and put forward the requirements for the store she wanted to rent. Then the two parties signed an agreement and for each successful rent of a store, she would give the real estate agent a certain proportion of remuneration.

I have to say that this method is really good. Real estate agents who earn money immediately burst out their strength. In less than a week, they provided customers with a sufficient number of stores to choose from.

Every store meets the customer's requirements.

Every store has its advantages.

This kind of work efficiency made Huang Tongtong very satisfied. After careful selection, she selected the store that satisfies her the most, and then rented the store after a brief negotiation.

When negotiating with the store owner, Huang Tongtong was very confident because there were enough alternative stores, so she didn't spend a penny of money when renting each store.

I rented the store at the most suitable price.

As a result, after eleven cities in Guangdong Province came to an end, Huang Tongtong successfully completed the work of renting a shop in just over a month, and the efficiency can be said to be very high.

Of course, thanks to the elite soldiers and generals she brought over, she helped her share a lot of early work. In many cities, she only needs to conduct final negotiations with the store owner, saving a lot of time.

After renting the store, the next step is to ask someone to design and decorate it.

This is not difficult. I first talked with Hao Guangqing (the designer of five high-end fruit stores in Yongcheng) and asked him if he could take on this big order, design and decoration, and only three months at most.

Hao Guangqing took it without hesitation.

Although his company mainly operates the Guizhou market, as a famous interior designer in China, no one has strong companions, he will do the task and work with his friends to complete it!

In terms of design, because the previous design drawings have been determined, the style only needs to adjust the size of the store to a certain proportion, and it does not take too much time.

When it comes to decoration, there are design drawings, so where can’t you find someone to decorate?

...

Imperial capital.

Among Qin Qiyue and their dormitories, if they are ranked by their appearance, Qin Qiyue is the highest, followed by Lin Jiaojiao, Luo Xianglan and Zhou Wenxin are the last.

Of course, although there is a difference in appearance among the four, the gap is not big. If Qin Qiyue's appearance is 84 points, then Lin Jiaojiao is about 79 points.

Luo Xianglan and Zhou Wenxin were around 76 minutes.

The score is really even. Even Luo Xianglan and Zhou Wenxin, who are ranked last, are all very popular beauties at Peking University.

It can be said that Qin Qiyue’s dormitory is a concentration camp for beauties from Peking University.

If you rank by family background, Qin Qiyue and Lin Jiaojiao are also ranked first. As for which family background is better, no one has ever compared or talked about it, so no one knows it.

The reason why Qin Qiyue and Lin Jiaojiao are ranked first is only inferred from everyone's usual spending habits.

Let’s talk about Qin Qiyue first. The clothes, shoes, bags, watches, cosmetics she wears, etc. are all very high-end things. Although they are not luxury goods, they are all real famous brands.

In addition, I often invite everyone to eat snacks and fruits. Those snacks are basically high-end snacks. Although they don’t know the price of the fruits, just the taste that makes people savor and never forget, you know that it is absolutely not cheap.

Therefore, the four people in the dormitory knew Qin Qiyue’s family background, and it was definitely not bad.

Lin Jiaojiao is also not bad. As a local from the imperial capital, she lives within the Third Ring Road. With this alone, she is qualified to be called a rich second generation. What's more, her clothes, shoes, bags, watches, cosmetics, etc. are also well-known brands, which are not inferior to Qin Qiyue's.

Therefore, no one knows who has a better family background without real comparison.

As for Luo Xianglan and Zhou Wenxin, their family background is much worse.

Of course, it depends on whom it compares with. Compared with Qin Qiyue and Lin Jiaojiao, it is naturally not the same level.

But their family background is also better than many people. The monthly living expenses given by their families are at the level of 4,000 to 5,000, which is a lot for college students.

They are both good-looking and have good figures. They can be admitted to Peking University and study, and they all have a good family background.

Therefore, there are many suitors in Qin Qiyue’s dormitory in Peking University.

The only one who pursues the three girls of Lin Jiaojiao, Luo Xianglan and Zhou Wenxin is not as ruthless as those who pursue Qin Qiyue.

Today is Saturday, April 9, Lin Jiaojiao’s 19th birthday.

It is one of the most popular ways to live a life in KTV today.

Lin Jiaojiao is no exception. She opened the largest private room at a KTV near the school, and then invited classmates and friends to attend her birthday party.

Qin Qiyue, Luo Xianglan and Zhou Wenxin were naturally invited.

...

This time Lin Jiaojiao has passed away, she has not invited many people, two college students who have been playing since childhood, four high school classmates, six college classmates (including Luo Xianglan, Zhou Wenxin), and Qin Qiyue.

Only thirteen people were invited in total.

Among these thirteen people, two of the childhood friends are male, two of the four high school classmates are male, and three of the six college classmates are male.

This was also carefully selected by Lin Jiaojiao, which happened to be seven men and seven women.

And what’s interesting is that there are two junior college students, four high school classmates, and Lin Jiaojiao herself, there are seven people in total. They are all authentic imperial capitals, and the remaining seven people come from different provinces and cities.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, except for Qin Qiyue, all the invited guests were already present.

When everyone comes, they naturally give gifts to birthday stars. Except for Luo Xianglan and Zhou Wenxin, the gifts given are basically worth about two or three hundred, such as Aries lucky stars, such as Bluetooth crystal music boxes.

Although such small gifts are not expensive, they are quite exquisite, so it is appropriate to give them to their classmates.

The gifts given by four high school students are slightly more expensive, and the value is between 500 and 800.

As classmates and best friends, Luo Xianglan and Zhou Wenxin naturally have to pay more attention to the gifts they give. Luo Xianglan gave a Disney luminous Teddy Panda doll worth about 2,000 yuan to hug the bear.

Zhou Wenxin gave a Parker gift box series, Zhuoer frosted black gold clip pen, and the value of the ink pen + ink gift box is about 2,000 yuan.

The most expensive ones should be Lin Jiaojiao's two childhood friends. Among them, the child named Shi Haibo gave a bag worth more than 10,000 yuan, and the child named Guo Zifeng gave a gift worth more than 10,000 yuan.

They are quite generous in their actions, and obviously their family background is pretty good.

"Happy birthday, Jiaojiao!"

"Thanks!"

Shi Haibo and Guo Zifeng came together. After giving the gift to Lin Jiaojiao and saying happy birthday, their eyes began to scan the audience, looking for the roommate who was more beautiful than her that Jiaojiao mentioned to them.

Then the two of them looked at a certain girl.

Because among the six girls present, she was the only one who was more beautiful than Lin Jiaojiao.

"Come on, let me introduce you to you. These two are all young people who have been playing with since I was a child. The one on the left is called Shi Haibo, nicknamed Shi Tou. The one on the right is called Guo Zifeng, nicknamed Guo Daxia."

After introducing this, Lin Jiaojiao began to introduce the other side. When she introduced the beauty, Shi Haibo and Guo Zifeng realized that they had recognized the wrong person.

It turns out that this beauty is Jiaojiao’s high school classmate named He Lijun, not college roommate Qin Qiyue.

After everyone met each other and greeted each other, the entire box was divided into three small groups, Shi Haibo and Guo Zifeng were the same small group.

Lin Jiaojiao’s four high school students are another small group.

The remaining small groups are college classmates.
