[The culture of the southern rural ancestral halls is more obvious in the Spring Festival, especially the elderly, who like this scene even more, and may also be one of the main factors in the southern countryside who are keen to build ancestral shrines] # Take you to see the three rural areas #
This year's New Year for various reasons did not return to Jiangxi hometown, but the old father and mother in the hometown said that this year's New Year home is also quite lively, the ancestral hall every day there are people singing, the elderly get together to roast the fire, chat, listen to the play, at noon can also eat together in the ancestral hall, the day of the people is what the elderly are looking forward to.
In our village, the main surnames are Dai, Zhu, Wang, Cheng four, each surname has an ancestral hall, the architectural style of the ancestral hall is different from ordinary houses, you can recognize at a glance, a bit like the ancient houses before, eaves, patios, boxes, halls, stages, etc. Generally, the patio is centered on the upper and lower parts, the upper part of the hall is mainly used to place the spiritual seats of the elders of the family generations, the sacrifice is more, and the lower part is the stage, which is usually used for activities.
Southern rural areas basically attach great importance to the ancestral hall, the cost of building an ancestral hall is basically not less than 2 million, of course, not a family, but a proportional crowdfunding corresponding to the surname, generally male Ding out of 1000-2000 yuan, women do not require, and the cost comes from donations, the economic conditions are better out of one or two thousand or one or two hundred thousand are possible, and then by trusted people to supervise the use of funds. After the ancestral hall is built, it will generally arrange for personnel to live in it, usually cleaning, daily maintenance and so on. During the New Year's Festival, there are generally some activities in it, everyone participates together, entertains themselves, of course, you can't play mahjong, cards and the like in it. Personally, I think that the ancestral hall in the southern countryside is actually a gathering place for villagers to communicate and communicate, if used rationally, it is more conducive to the unity within the family, forming a joint force, and carrying forward positive energy, but now many young people do not participate much. #江西农村习俗 #
