The situation in Wangjia Village is different from that in Longtou Village. It is very different. Wangjia Village developed from the seven surnames. The village was larger than Longtou Village at first. In addition, their population is chaotic, and the seven surnames have seven ancestors.

Under this situation, in the old society, when valuing etiquette and ancestors, the ancestral halls in their village were naturally larger and the buildings were even more brilliant and grand.

There have always been ancestral halls in the fishermen’s villages in Hongyang. Regardless of their size or importance, this is irreplaceable to other buildings. How did the old society determine which village was rich and which village had great power? It depends on which village’s ancestral hall was built tall and magnificent.

The ancestral hall in Wangjia Village is built in the center of the village. It is also a coincidence that the terrain of the central area of ​​their village is slightly higher. The ancestral hall is built in this location, and the houses of seven surnames are distributed around it. This has a name in Feng Shui called Qixing Gongyue.

Ao Muyang had never been to the ancestral hall in their village. At most, he had seen it from afar when he went to find Wang Youwei before. The ancestral hall in Wangjia Village is quite mysterious and well preserved. Speaking of which, he really wanted to visit it up close.

After the founding of New China, the land of China once carried out an activity in the name of destroying the four olds and eliminating superstitions. At that time, the ancestral halls in each village were one of the four olds and were to be smashed and destroyed.

At that time, Wangjia Village was still called Qixun Village. The Wang family rose up through that event. They were the leaders of Qiantan Town team and smashed all the ancestral halls in the surrounding villages, but the big ancestral hall in their own village was not touched.

Therefore, the ancestral hall in Wangjia Village was preserved intact.

On the 28th day of the 12th lunar month, Yang Shuyong was preparing to worship his ancestors and change the name of the village, and Ao Muyang went to him to keep the scene.

The ancestral hall in Wangjia Village is in the middle of the village, with a pond in front of it. This is called Panchi, which is semicircular and has a circle of railings on it. Its function is to prevent water disasters and regulate temperatures. In addition, it is more important to be the symbolic meaning of Feng Shui.

After all, it is not the era when the blood of a village is condensed with family genealogy and ancestral hall. The best protected ancestral hall in Wangjia Village is also somewhat dilapidated. There was once a small arch bridge on Panchi, scientifically named Panchai, which has collapsed now, leaving only some stone foundations left at both ends of Panchi.

After seeing Ao Muyang, Yang Shuyong, who was organizing villagers to paste paper cutting at the entrance of the ancestral hall, and was hanging firecrackers, greeted him: "Director Ao is here? Welcome!"

The old men at the door were displeased. They knew Ao Muyang's identity. The two villages had been fighting for hundreds of years. In the past, whenever they went to the village to worship their ancestors, the other village would find ways to destroy them. So they had already formed a conditioned reflex when they saw the people in Longtou Village at this time, so that was to be prepared.

However, they also knew Ao Muyang's energy, and even the village party secretary had to nod and bow to others. What could they do? Besides, the leaders of the town police station have come today, and they believe that Longtou Village dare not come to be presumptuous.

Following Yang Shuyong, Ao Muyang entered the ancestral temple of Wangjia Village. The building is built in a three-yard courtyard. There is a slat on both sides of the three main houses, and the walls on both sides are arranged in an orderly manner. The walls are covered with a layer of glazed tiles. The wooden doors and windows of the main house in the middle are carefully carved on them, which is very well-known as an ancient fisherman.

From the main door to the main house is a bluestone road. The door head has stone pillars and brick surfaces. The door frame is made of bluestone strips. The door lintel consists of three brick carvings on the upper, middle and lower sides. It is very complete and exquisite. Each beam has a pattern structure with auspicious meaning.

Ao Muyang looked carefully and found that under the dripping tiles on the top of the door lintel, there was a pattern of carp leaping on the dragon gate, which meant that future generations were prosperous; on the left side of the door lintel was a curving grass pattern with a curved and stretched curly grass pattern, indicating good luck, and on the right pattern was an ancient coin above the bat's head, which was a homonym, called "Future is in front of you".

This is just a gate, and I am paying more attention to it. Ao Muyang was dazzled and couldn't help but exclaim: "It turns out that the ancestral hall can be so exquisite."

Yang Shuyong said proudly: "This is a traditional cultural heritage that has been preserved for hundreds of years. No matter which generation of people in our village or any internal conflicts, it will always take the protection of the ancestral hall as a burden. No one is allowed to destroy it, otherwise no matter what identity is, they will be punished."

Looking at him, Ao Muyang suddenly felt itchy at the root of his teeth: "Then do you go and destroy other people's ancestral hall?"

Yang Shuyong suddenly remembered the bad things that the elders in the village had done decades ago, and quickly shrank his neck with a smirk.

Ao Muyang said: "When I was a child, my parents said that the ancestral hall in our village was so exquisite before, but who did it when he brought someone to smash it into a dangerous house now?"

Yang Shuyong had nothing to say, so he could only pretend not to hear it.

Seeing this, Ao Muyang stopped and stopped leaving: "Old Yang, you don't respect me. I kept talking to you, why don't you reply? This is boring, it's boring."

When things were about to come, Yang Shuyong couldn't pretend to be fine. He smiled bitterly and said, "This is all a conflict between the previous generation and a broken thing done by the previous generation. It should not affect the friendship of our generation, right? Besides, nowadays, young people have gone to the city to work, and the village is full of elderly people and left-behind children. The problem of hollowing out is serious and the population loss is serious. What's the use of having a ancestral hall?"

Ao Muyang immediately smiled: "Yes, they must not let them affect our relationship. But what I want to say is, Lao Yang, haven't you always complained to me about the fact that there are no tourism projects in your village? Well, right in front of you, what a good project? What a great attraction?"

Yang Shuyong shook his head like a rattle: "That won't work. This ancestral hall cannot be open to tourists, otherwise the old men will be angry to death."

Ao Muyang said: "It is your business to open up or not to develop, and it is your business to attract tourists to make money. Anyway, our village ancestral hall has been open to tourists long ago, and our village has made money anyway."

This sentence hit Yang Shuyong's weakness. After thinking about it, he said, "We have to go back to this matter. Today, it is mainly to change the name of the ancestral hall and the name of Qixian Village!"

Then Lu Zhichao came with two town cadres. After seeing Ao Muyang, he whispered: "Xiao Ao, you are really asking for trouble for me. I still think about finishing my work early today and going home to prepare for the New Year. I have been in the town this year, and my wife is almost running away with someone."

Ao Muyang also whispered: "I'm sorry, Secretary Lu, but I'm asking you for some serious business. Look at this ancestral hall, this is a century-old ancestral hall of the fisherman family. It has many carvings, many murals, and genealogy. How many customs and traditions that have disappeared from history are recorded in it?"

Lu Zhichao took a deep breath: "Oh, the ancestral hall in Wangjia Village is so grand? I can't tell from the outside. Oh, this carving is so exquisite, it's so good."

Seeing the town leader coming, Yang Shuyong walked out to greet him in embarrassment: he wanted to change the village name, but asked the town secretary to come and suppress the venue. This was somewhat unreasonable.

As a result, Lu Zhichao was extremely enthusiastic about him, holding his hand and said, "Old Yang, why are you polite to me? It is my glory to be able to witness the rename of your village and rename it again!"
