Chapter 7 Ridiculous
"Zhang Haomeng......" Zhang Fengjiu shook his head and sighed: "Why did this thing come out and stir up?"
He looked at the tall and mighty man below, and the corners of his mouth pulled out a helpless wry smile.
This is his fourth son, who has been tiger-headed since he was a child, and his temperament is also very aggressive, and it is extremely easy to trust those close to him, and once he has determined his position, he will be very firm.
For the child Haomeng, Zhang Fengjiu has no hatred.
Although this kid usually talks and behaves like a tiger, for his father, Zhang Haomeng is very respectful and filial.
Therefore, when he saw Zhang Haomeng speaking for his eldest brother and clearly standing together, Zhang Fengjiu, the father-in-law, was not disappointed or angry, but only helpless.
Because of what?
With his IQ and character, he must have been persuaded by the calculating Zhang Aofeng.
"Haomeng, you, you, hey......" Zhang Fengjiu looked up to the sky and sighed.
Zhang Shaotian shook the folding fan, a look of helplessness flashed in his eyes, "Fourth brother, don't mess around, step aside." ”
"What kind of consciousness! I'm not the Zhang family, am I?"
The loud voice spread throughout the entire hall, and Zhang Hao's fierce eyes widened, "Now that the family is facing this disaster, it has come to the time of life and death, I think what the eldest brother said is not unreasonable." ”
"Humph!"
Then he crossed his arms and looked directly at the elegant man sitting on the main seat, and said in a rather indignant tone: "What has the family been led by you in the past twenty years?
"Fourth brother, how can you speak to the head of the family like this?" Zhang Xiaolian shouted.
Seeing his own sister accusing him, Zhang Hao scratched the back of his head and said: Tenth sister, don't defend this incompetent family master......
"The second brother is not incompetent at all! he really works hard!"
Zhang Xiaolian was so angry that her jade face flushed with excitement, her teeth were clenched, and her beautiful eyes glared at the mighty man in front of her.
"Ahem......"
Zhang Hao coughed a few times, pursed his thin lips and stopped speaking.
"Hey, what are we doing here, we are brothers and sisters, and now we can't fight in the nest of the enemy. Zhang Aofeng sighed, but a look of pride flashed in his eyes.
Hearing this, Zhang Hao nodded heavily, "What the eldest brother said makes sense. ”
Zhang Fengjiu, who was floating above the main hall, had an ugly face, if he could still come back to life, he would definitely roll up his sleeves and slap Zhang Hao a few times.
"The family is unfortunate, ......," said the ancestor of the Zhang family helplessly at this time.
"It seems that many people are dissatisfied with my decision-making and think that the Zhang family has come to this point because of me. ”
A clear voice came from the main seat without slowness.
Immediately afterward, everyone looked at the elegant man in unison.
Zhang Zixian's pale face showed a look of pathos, "In the past 20 years, the family has gone from a good situation to a downfall, and I naturally have an unshirkable responsibility......
"Compared to my ancestors, I am ashamed, and I am even more grief-stricken for those who died. ”
"I know that many clansmen are dissatisfied with me, but think about it, I, the head of the family, watch the passage of our Zhang family's lives and the departure of relatives one by one, am I willing to do this?"
Zhang Zixian took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and said in an excited tone: "No one wants this!"
The elegant man's face was full of sadness, and even his voice trembled a little.
"Second brother......" Zhang Xiaolian pursed her pink lips, and her eyes were a little red.
Zhang Shaotian shook the folding fan and sighed softly.
The clansmen in the main hall were extremely uncomfortable in their hearts, and even many of them lowered their heads and secretly wiped their tears.
Zhang Haomeng wanted to say some comforting words in his mouth, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the signal of the man wearing mink fur beside him, so he had to swallow it forcibly.
Disdain in his heart, Zhang Aofeng's tone was cold, "Zixian, let's talk about things, you led the family to such a situation, don't you want to explain something?"
As soon as these words came out, the clansmen behind him all lifted their spirits and looked at the elegant man sitting on the main seat.
"Elder Ao Feng, don't worry, I'll explain to everyone. Zhang Zixian looked directly at the handsome man below, and his voice was cold.
Zhang Aofeng snorted coldly, and a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Now many people in the family will think like this, thinking that if we don't resist at the beginning, don't fight back, and huddle in the family and wait for the ancestor to come out, will it be better......?"
Zhang Zixian's eyes were cold, staring at the handsome man below, and he said word by word: "I dare to say, this is undoubtedly aggravating the death of our Zhang family!"
As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar.
The blue tendons on his forehead bulged, Zhang Aofeng gritted his teeth, and his eyes stared at the elegant man, "Zixian, how can you say this." ”
"Elder Ao Feng, then listen. ”
Although Zhang Zixian was in a sluggish state, he still held on, and the whole person looked down on him condescendingly.
"If we don't resist, how will we collect taxes on the family's estates and territories outside?
As one of the four major families in Anyang County, what majesty will my Zhang family have at that time? Wouldn't it be a joke for our Zhang family to go out of the door then!
The turtles are huddled together and allowed to be usurped by them, how will we maintain our lives with the family's savings spirit stones?
Zhang Zixian stretched out his finger and slashed it, and scolded in an excited tone.
"If we had been so frightened by the enemy that we didn't dare to resist twenty years ago, I think the situation would be even worse than it is now in five years, and we would have lost all of Wuyan Mountain's cultivation resources!
In addition, there is also the medicinal plantation established in Xiyan Mountain, if I hadn't let people hold on to it, the death toll of our family would have been even higher!
Think about it, without these, how would so many of our Zhang family's population depend on to feed? We are a Xiuzhen family! How can we cultivate without spirit stones and cultivation resources?
At that time, it will definitely fall apart completely, and the Zhang family will begin to disintegrate from within!
Zhang Zixian, who was sitting on the main seat, smiled angrily: "Those of us who are descendants can't keep our homes, and when the enemy comes in and forcibly attacks the Ancestor Retreat Cave Mansion, then it's really over!"
Speaking of this, he coughed violently a few times, and his state became more and more sluggish, but his eyes were still sharp, so that the clansmen in the hall did not dare to underestimate him.
Under the touch of their eyes, they all unconsciously looked away.
When Zhang Fengjiu saw this scene, he secretly praised in his heart, with a look of relief in his eyes, "Zixian, Dad didn't misunderstand you." ”
"I led the monks of my family to resist bravely and fought back for twenty years, which shocked them to a certain extent and delayed the decline of the family, so some people took the lead in saying that I made a wrong decision......
Zhang Zixian's waist was straight, his eyes scanned the audience, and the whole person revealed the majesty of a superior person, "It's ridiculous!"
As soon as these words came out, the clansmen in the hall were silent.
Zhang Aofeng's face was gloomy, and his teeth were almost crushed.
