"Don't talk nonsense, she calls you Sister Zhou Zi, a girl younger than you, if I have anything to do with her, wouldn't it be better than a dog!" Shi Chen interrupted her words with a wave of his hand.

"Then I don't care, who let you marry someone else, according to the law, we in Miaojiang are an ethnic minority, and we can have our own marriage customs. ”

"Besides, if you get married here, it won't affect your marriage in the real world, do you think the police have arrested you for bigamy?"

Wang Zhouzi said while eating, she has been studying in Longjing High School for most of the past six months, and she has understood the general situation of modern society.

"Eat your meal. Shi Chen pushed open the door of the living room and walked out.

At the other end of the village, Wang Xiaohua returned home depressed, and as soon as she entered the door, her parents surrounded her.

"How is it, Mr. Shi Chen, did he pick up your lunch box?" Seeing the unhappy expression on Wang Xiaohua's face, Father Wang hurriedly asked.

He accepted, but told me that he was married, and told me to find a more suitable one. Wang Xiaohua nodded, and as she spoke, tears slipped down her eyes.

"Alas, Shi Chen is not from our Miao Jiang after all, and he is not subject to the rules of our Miao Jiang. Father Wang also sighed.

Seeing his daughter disappointed, he felt very uncomfortable, but after all, Shi Chen is a person from the real society, and he should act in accordance with the rules of the real society.

"But I told him that I wouldn't affect his relationship in the secular world," Wang Xiaohua wiped from her tears......

"If he agrees, then it's not a thing, if he doesn't agree, it also proves that he has good moral character, and he has the qualifications to be the patriarch of our Miao Jiang, Xiaohua, or let's look for it again, there will always be something suitable for you." Wang's mother also comforted on the side.

"I don't, I'll recognize himself!" Wang Xiaohua shook her head vigorously, and then ran quickly to her room.

"This girl!" Father Wang looked at the stubborn woman, shook his head helplessly and sighed.

"It's all up to your character, you have a stubborn temper and she is also stubborn, Shi Chen already has a wife in the secular world, and now he is still the patriarch of our Miao Jiang, we girls have no chance!"

Wang's mother was distressed and could only vent her temper on her husband.

"How can you blame me for this!" Father Wang pointed at himself in astonishment.

"Don't blame anyone, it's not a good daughter you raised!" After throwing down a sentence, Wang's mother hurriedly ran towards her daughter's room, afraid that her daughter would do something wrong on impulse.

——

In the evening, on the road between the village and the farmland, families move their tables out and bring out the meals they have prepared in the afternoon.

The Great Elder had returned after a year's absence, and a new patriarch had appeared in the village, which was enough for them to celebrate.

"Patriarch, Great Elder, let's go to dinner!" the second elder walked slowly to the front of the farmhouse on crutches, reached out and knocked on the wooden door, and shouted.

"Second Elder, don't call me the Great Elder, I'm just an ordinary girl in the village, my grandmother is the Great Elder, you still call me Zhou Zi the same as when I was a child!"

Wang Zhouzi laughed dryly a few times, and hearing the title of Great Elder reminded her of the situation of pretending to be her grandmother alive a few years ago.

"Okay, then I still call you Zhou Zi the same as before, but in terms of identity, you are still the Great Elder, there is no doubt about it!" The third elder pondered for a moment, and then agreed.

"Don't call me patriarch, I sound very awkward. Shi Chen came out after Wang Zhouzi.

"This can't be done, Zhou Zi was originally a girl I watched grow up, and she has to call me uncle according to her generation, and I can call her by her name. But you are the benefactor of our Miao Village, and you are also the new patriarch chosen by the mother worm, at least the elders and young are respectful, and you still have to follow them!"

Who would have thought that as soon as he heard Shi Chen's words, the second elder resolutely objected.

"Okay, the patriarch is the patriarch, but it sounds like the Earth Emperor. Seeing that the second elder was so resolute, Shi Chen didn't refute, shook his head and smiled, and walked out of the courtyard with them.

On the road in front of the village, dozens of tables were lined up side by side, and almost all the villagers of Miaojiang were sitting on both sides.

When they saw the Second Elder come out with Shi Chen and Wang Zhouzi, everyone stood up, and everyone's eyes were fixed on Shi Chen.

Wang Zhouzi and they knew each other, and everyone in the village watched them grow up, but Shi Chen can be regarded as a new face, although he has the grace of saving his life, but his current identity is the patriarch of their Miao Jiang.

"Why are you all standing, sit down, let the new patriarch of our Miao Village say a few words to everyone?" The second elder put his crutches aside, pushed Shi Chen's back, and pushed Shi Chen in front of everyone.

"Second Elder, what did I say?" was forcibly pushed up, Shi Chen smiled awkwardly.

"Tell me casually, you are now the patriarch of our Miao Jiang, don't you have anything to say to everyone?"

Shi Chen's strength and character are completely in line with the requirements of the Miao Jiang patriarch, but he is a little younger, and he may be negligent in dealing with village affairs.

But no matter how young you are, you will grow up, and no one can become a qualified patriarch from birth.

"Okay, then I'll probably say a few words to you, let me introduce myself first, I'm Shi Chen, I live in Longjing Shijia Manor, you remember this place, if you can't contact me in the future, you can send someone there to find me directly. ”

"As for the position of patriarch, I don't think I'm up to the top of my game, so I want to ask the second elder to help me deal with things in the village. ”

Shi Chen coughed twice and spoke.

"No problem. The second elder immediately nodded in agreement, although Shi Chen was the patriarch, it was impossible for him to be in the village most of the time, and all things still needed to be dealt with by him.

"The other things are gone for the time being, if you need help, just call me directly, and once you get outside, don't call me patriarch, just call me Shi Chen." After saying this, Shi Chen sat down on the stool.

"Have you all remembered what the patriarch said?" the second elder asked loudly.

"Remember!" said the crowd.

"Then let's eat, you and Zhou Zi will come to me later, I have something to say to you. The second elder nodded and sat down next to Shi Chen.

Shi Chen ate his meal without saying a word, but the people in Miao Jiang kept asking Shi Chen some questions about the secular world.

Now that they have escaped the control of Zhang Yuandong and Yin Xiu, they also have a yearning for the outside world.

However, due to the identity of the Miao Jiang people, if they did not have a special identity and did not have the permission of the second elder, they could not leave the village.

Therefore, most people have been to the farthest place, that is, the county seat outside the mountains, and even the provincial capital is rarely visited.
