Chapter 1428(1/2)
There is a place for life
That night, Wang's family's family's career was very lively.
Wang Lin and the others came here after dinner. There are too many people here. If you really want to have a dinner together, it will be too busy and you have to prepare some in advance, right?
When they came over, Shen Xue and the others had just had a meal.
After Deng Lijun and Tang Yan moved into Wang's house, they basically never had their own meals, and they all ate with Shen Xue.
Lin Meimei has someone to take care of. She originally started her own team and has been with Shen Xue these days.
On the left floor where Shen Xue lives, there are a table full of people at every meal, and it is so happy.
When Wang Lin and the others arrived, they also chatted with Shen Xue and others in Zuolou.
Gu Qingyu smiled and said, "It's so lively here, and I want to move in too."
Shen Xue said: "There are several people living here, and you are still here to crowd out? Isn't it nice to live alone in the presidential suite of the Huamei Hotel? You are born in blessings but don't know how to be blessed."
Gu Qingyu smiled with a pursed lips and said, "I envy you for being fun and fun."
Lin Meimei said: "Ms. Gu, what kind of boyfriend are you having? Can you have such a lot of financial resources to keep you living in that house?"
When Gu Qingyu saw the fire, she didn't dare to show off in front of these people. She quickly smiled low-key: "How can my house be compared to your garden villa?"
Among these people, Tang Yan and Yan Qin were getting closer. After thinking about it for a moment, she understood a little and looked at Wang Lin with her eyes.
Wang Lin touched his nose and did not participate in their discussion.
Gu Qingyu changed the subject and said, "We are going to hold the second God of Cookery Competition in Taiwan, and Miss Tan Yiyi is going to participate! She will definitely win the championship by then."
The women were indeed delicious. As soon as they heard the God of Food Competition, they immediately became interested and asked in a verbal way.
"Can we go and watch it live?" Tang Yan asked.
Lin Meimei smiled and said, "I only care about the dishes made by famous chefs, can we taste them?"
Shen Xue smiled and said, "My sister Lin, you are such a foodie! How can we audience eat the dishes cooked by the competition chefs? Unless they are judges."
Lin Daimei said: "The judges can't finish so many dishes, right? The dishes are left in the end? Maybe they can't be poured out?"
Gu Qingyu said: "Hey, Sister Lin asked about the idea. You really want to taste the chefs' dishes. I have a way to get it. As for the tickets for on-site viewing, I can also help you get it. If you want to go, I will get it for you."
Shen Xue said: "Of course I have to go and see it, just treat it as cheering for Miss Tan."
Everyone said they wanted to see it.
Wang Lin asked: "Who are the judges this time?"
Gu Qingyu said: "All of them are big names in the food industry in Shanghai. There are several old hotels, senior chefs of hotels, and a columnist of a food magazine. One is a professor who is well versed in food. There are a total of nine judges!"
Wang Lin said: "Sounds good?"
Gu Qingyu said: "If you don't have any fake competitions like this, you'll be relieved. And I heard that this year's competition will be divided into several parts. The first thing you want is knife skills, followed by heat, and finally seasoning."
Li Wenxiu said: "Don't everyone cook a few dishes?"
Gu Qingyu said: "Of course the dish needs to be cooked, and it also accounts for the highest score."
Wang Lin said: "Is it better to ask for a unified dish, right? That is not fair to the chefs. They each have their own specialty dishes, and the taste and requirements of each dish are different."
Gu Qingyu said: "The competition organizing committee has taken this into consideration. This year's competition will change, and all the chefs will make some dishes."
Wang Lin said: "That's good."
As we chatted, we talked about Deng Lijun's return to his hometown to find his ancestors.
Everyone says this is a good thing, and people have to find their own origins.
Everyone talked about the genealogy again.
A big tree has lush branches and leaves, and comes from its developed root system buried deep underground and nourishment from the earth.
People are like branches and leaves on big trees. If they want to be lush and lush, they must have their roots and soil. This root system is the blood inheritance of ancestors, nations, families, and parents. This soil is the land that gave birth to them, as well as the customs and traditional culture on this land.
Just as grass without roots will wither, saplings without roots cannot grow into towering trees. If a person does not have the foundation for growth, it will be difficult for him to become a human being, let alone become a talent or achievement.
In fact, a person often has support from his ancestors in his life and work, but we don’t realize it. For example, if there are any characters in the family, the people in the family will be proud of them and the younger generation will be inspired - I can do it too!
Looking for the roots and asking for ancestors has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the Chinese people for thousands of years. When a person becomes rich, he holds important positions and has high positions and is a billionaire in the business world or an outstanding entrepreneur. For people, they all want to return home in glory, shine their families, and fight for their own family and ancestors. The so-called proud and glorious scenery is unlimited.
Therefore, the more successful a person is, the more he should recognize his ancestors and return to his hometown, return to his hometown, hold a large seat and welcome him for ten miles, and be in a luxurious atmosphere, or do good deeds for his hometown, donate money to run schools, build bridges and roads, and add bricks and tiles to his hometown to do charity.
If you don’t return home without returning home, it is like walking in brocade clothes at night. Life loses its meaning, just like you wear a gorgeous and brilliant golden suit at twelve o’clock on New Year’s Eve, but there is no one on the street. Who will appreciate you and praise you? So this is how people are. After becoming successful and famous, after becoming rich and prosperous, the first thing they think of is to return to their hometown and to glorify their ancestors. Therefore, the Chinese people pay special attention to recognizing the family and returning to their hometown.
Many big stars in Hong Kong and Taiwan will return to the mainland to find their ancestors.
Deng Lijun is also a singer with a hometown sentiment.
At many concerts, she would say that her hometown was in Daming, Jizhou.
In a sense, Deng Lijun has a strong sense of belonging to the family.
In her childhood, she moved several times due to her family's poverty. In order to make a living, she began to study and perform everywhere in order to make a living.
After becoming famous, she lived in many places and felt that it was just a residence, not a hometown.
"Where am I from? Where am I going? Who am I?"
This is the ultimate question of life and also the confusing behavior of human beings.
In addition to philosophers and writers, ordinary people will even think of such a topic and even take action on it.
For the common people, this topic is not mysterious or poetic at all. It is very specific and realistic, which is called finding the roots and asking the ancestors.
Some people think that people are full and live well, so why should they care about that?
But, no.
When a person reaches a certain stage of life, there will always be people who think and do this.
Whether you live in the city or the countryside, whether you are in Baodao or Xiangjiang.
As long as people have the conditions and abilities, they want to find their own origins.
The Chinese people moved back to peace, but in history, there are many people who left their hometowns because of escape, making a living, and traveling through officialdom. So their hometown has become the most beautiful utopia worth looking back in the hearts of the Chinese people.
"Hongdong Old Stork Nest", "Zhaoqiang Wild Magpie Nest", "My Home is Under the Big Locust Tree", I believe many people have heard of such words.
These words are passed down from generation to generation, written into the genealogy, engraved into the bones, and will also be stored in the museum.
It may not matter to many young people, but for an older person, the idea of seeking roots will always arise.
Just like green leaves don’t miss the land, but fallen leaves always return to their roots; just like the boats in the harbor always yearn for the sea, and the boats drifting are always thinking about returning to their destination.
A person's geographical latitude is easy to determine, but a person's time dimension is difficult to determine. The particle size of the historical probe is too large, while the relative particle size of the individual is too small. However, if the individual is placed on the family line, the extension line of time to the left will be long enough.
People do not want to find the past, but to find the source of culture, to give themselves more dimensions, and ultimately find a realistic ending.
Only by knowing where to come from can you know where to return. When you walk in this world, you will be in a hurry and always have time to see where to come, but there is always clouds and mist. But as long as you search, you can always find it, and finally find your hometown in the map of history.
At least in the 1990s, there were still many people who liked to do this kind of thing.
In fact, even decades later, there are still people who practice the family genealogy, each undergoing minor reviews every thirty years and every major review every 60 years.
For a clan, compiling genealogy is a major event within the clan. Large clans often need to form an organizing committee of more than 100 people, investing hundreds of thousands or millions of yuan, and it took two to three years to complete the work of compiling and continuing the genealogy.
A country is prosperous, a family is inherited, a family is prosperous, and a person is clear.
While talking about the genealogy, Li Wenxiu asked: "Wang Lin, do we people in the city have genealogy? Why have I never heard from my parents about it?"
Wang Lin pondered: "The people in the city also have family genealogies, but many families have not passed down. I saw many people in the city go back to their hometowns to find family genealogies."
Tang Yan smiled and said, "I have heard a saying that counting three generations upwards are all from farmers. So, as long as you search carefully, you can find the family tree."
Li Wenxiu smiled and said, "My family is also the city that my grandfather had just entered. I counted three generations and I am really a farmer."
Li Wenjuan asked curiously: "Sister, where is our hometown?"
Li Wenxiu said: "What's wrong? You also want to learn from Sister Deng. Can you come to recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors?"
Li Wenjuan said: "It's good to know!"
Li Wenxiu said: "We are from the outskirts of Shencheng! We have been out for so long and have already taken root in the city. Even if we go back, we will have no land and houses. What are we going back?"
Li Wenjuan said: "Brother-in-law, where are you? Where is your hometown?"
Wang Lin was stunned. He really didn't know where his hometown was.
Li Wenjuan smiled and said, "Brother-in-law, you just said that people have roots. This is where people come from, and you cannot forget their roots. Now that you are developed, you don't know where your hometown is. Is this considered a night trip in brocade clothes?"
Wang Lin smiled bitterly and said, "Wenjuan, you have stopped asking me. I really don't know where I came from. I have to ask my uncle about this."
Li Wenjuan said: "While your uncle is still there, please ask him quickly. By the time he is a hundred years later, no one will know where your hometown is."
Wang Lin originally wanted to help Deng Lijun find relatives, but he didn't expect to get involved in such a problem.
You really can't think about this kind of thing too much. You can get into the soul as soon as you think about it, especially if you want to find the answer.
Shen Xue smiled and said, "Fortunately, I know where my hometown is. I have many relatives in my family! I have a family genealogy at home, and I have read that family genealogy."
Li Wenjuan asked curiously: "What does the genealogy look like? Is it only men who record it?"
Shen Xue said: "No, women will also record it. My name will be. When I edit the genealogy next time, I will record the names of my two children, and I will also buy a set of genealogy to keep it."
