Chapter 968: Chapter 968: Turning hostility into jade
Ye Tian didn't expect that the uncle would actually call and plead for his brother.
"Ye Tian, can you give Uncle a face. Don't let your third and fourth uncles bow and apologize in front of so many people?" The uncle sighed on the phone and said: "The third and fourth have been competitive all their lives, and the ancestor has already severely reprimanded the two of them in his dream. If you really bow and apologize for serving tea to your junior in front of the whole clan, I'm afraid that the remaining twenty years or so will become a heart disease. ”
"Uncle, how could I ask the third and fourth uncles to serve me tea and apologize. Both of them are elders, and I still understand this etiquette. ”
"That's good, Ye Tian, I thank you for the third and fourth uncles. That Peng Hai is the head of the family, and the ancestor has communicated with you?"
"Nope. The old ancestor and his old man are roaming in the sky and on the ground, and when he has nothing to do, he will return to the old house in Meiwan as soon as his mind moves, and he may have been optimistic about the eldest brother for a long time. Whether it is character or ability, I also think that the younger generation of the Peng family is the eldest brother who can do it. At this time, Ye Tian couldn't say that Peng Zu asked Ye Tian's opinion. This kind of internal affairs of a big family, especially this kind of major event of choosing the head of the family, if outsiders are involved, it will be uncomfortable for anyone. Ye Tian believed that as long as Peng Hai was not stupid, he would never mention this matter to anyone.
"That's good, Ye Tian, I'll let the hotel send a car to send you to the old mansion in a while. This morning, the prince called and wanted to open an ancestral hall to worship his ancestors. ”
Last night, all the direct males of the Peng family, whether old or young, as long as they are adult males, all received Peng Zu's dream. In the dream, Peng Zu not only raised the wine promised to Ye Tian to 1,000 catties, but also angrily scolded the Peng family for not abiding by the ancestral teachings and discrediting the Peng family. He also said that he would punish a few people to go to Pomfret Island to work as coolies for three months.
If it is still Taigong who has this kind of dream alone, there may be private doubts from the Peng family. But this time, the ancestor of the Peng family obviously used great magical powers to support all the direct males of the Peng family in their dreams.
Ye Tian gave the steps and face of the third and fourth uncles as elders, but it does not mean that he will give Peng Tao a few equals face. So at that moment, Ye Tian was playing haha and went to the restaurant to eat leisurely.
"Big brother, you also dreamed last night, right?" While eating, Ye Tian called his eldest brother.
"It's done, Ye Tian, it's not that my brother doesn't understand the world, I want to take the initiative to avoid suspicion at this time. ”
"I know, I still care about this little thing? What is that, Brother Xiao Tao came to the hotel in the morning, and I don't think I can really make him a three-month savage on that island, right?"
"When the ancestor spoke, our Peng family didn't dare not listen, but it wasn't impossible to be flexible. ”
Ye Tianleng paused, and then said with a smile: "Big brother, you have a lot of eyes." ”
"As the head of the house, you have to think about the big picture. Peng Hai smiled wryly on the other end of the phone: "Resolving contradictions and buying people's hearts, I have to do it if I don't want to." ”
"Hehe, you're still selling it cheaply, right? Remember that pill, you and Sister Juan can give it to the princess, but don't miss it. ”
"That pill is really that magical, but don't give it to Taigong to eat anything. ”
"Just put a hundred hearts. Ye Tian said proudly: "To say that I am sometimes not very reliable, but my senior brother's medicine, looking at the whole of China, drones. Well, no one. ”
Ye Tian ate breakfast slowly, and beckoned to the general manager who was standing not far away.
"Mr. Ye, what do you need me to do for you?" the general manager ran over in fear. This hotel is wholly owned by the Peng family, and the young man in front of him first called Peng Hai to ask for the best service, and then this morning, what is even more exaggerated is that Peng Tao, who has always been arrogant and arrogant, actually ran to the hotel with a few Peng family children, for fear of disturbing Ye Tian's rest, he stood outside the door and did not dare to knock.
The general manager felt that his outlook on life had been turned upside down.
You must know that the Peng family is not an obscure small family with a little industry. Looking at the southeast of Fujian and even the entire Fujian and southeast coastal areas, the Peng family is a large family. What outsiders saw was that the Peng family was eating the old book with the blessing of the ancestors, but the manager knew that just like this kind of international five-star hotel, there were no less than 30 in the Peng family's industry.
The person who can make the Peng family pay so much attention to it, this young man in front of him, who is dressed a little inconspicuously, has a big family background and is scared to death.
"Just find a car for me and send it to the Peng family's old house. Ye Tian glanced at the manager and asked curiously, "Why are you so nervous?"
"No. No nervousness. The manager squeezed out a smile, wiped his sweat and said, "I'll arrange it for you right away." ”
The car that sent Ye Tian was a very low-key Maybach 62S, which looked like an extended version of Mercedes-Benz from a distance. The driver who sent Ye Tian was also the captain of the team who was specially responsible for the pick-up and drop-off leaders of the hotel, and the manager directly sat in the co-pilot as a receptionist. The two of them are like great enemies, and they dare not make a little negligence.
"Yo, why is there such a traffic jam today?"
"Mr. Ye, today is an important day for the opening of the ancestral hall in the old mansion of the Peng family, so the important people in the direct line and side branches of the Peng family, as long as they are in Meiwan, they must come, and those who can rush back from other places will also come. ”
The road in Meiwan is not wide, and it deliberately retains the quaint and narrow stone road in southern Fujian, and the traffic will be jammed with too much wine. The traffic police were standing on the side of the road to guide and saw the Maybach in the hotel flashing double, and hurriedly ran over to ensure that the car had priority access.
The parking lot on the west side of the Peng family's old house was already full of cars, but when the Maybach drove over, someone waved and led the car to park in the specially reserved parking space. Then he respectfully took Ye Tian through the side door of the parking lot and directly entered the Peng family's old house.
Ye Tian is a foreigner, and according to the ancestral teachings, he cannot participate in the ancestral hall ancestor worship activities. Taigong called Ye Tianlai this time, mainly to correct Ye Tian's name again in front of everyone, and then announce the appointment of the head of the Peng family. This time, Peng Zu used his great magic power to make all the direct Peng family children sense the dream, and no one would dare to stand up and question it again.
Ye Tian walked into the courtyard of the old mansion and saw the men of the Peng family's direct line and the important men of the side branches standing in the courtyard, wearing traditional robes and serious faces. When Taigong saw Ye Tian, he sat in a wheelchair and smiled kindly.
"Taigong, how are you old man. Ye Tian ran over with a smile, held the hand of the prince and said, "The Peng family, under the protection of the ancestor, is really prosperous!"
"I gave birth to four sons and two daughters, two of whom have been overseas all the time, and they usually don't come back except for the Chinese New Year. Your uncle is not bad in his generation, but I don't know what it will be like down there. Today's young people are getting less and less interested in getting married and having children. ”
Taigong looked at Ye Tian and said with a serious expression: "Ye Tian, today is the big day for my Peng family to open the ancestral hall, the ancestor and the ancestors, the Peng family ancestral hall is not allowed to have people with foreign surnames to participate, I hope you can understand." ”
Ye Tian nodded: "Taigong, I understand." ”
"This time, the first is that the wine on the side of Jiupan Mountain has already left the cellar at Chenshi, and last night the ancestor dreamed of it, and all the direct males of the Peng family received the great magic power of the ancestor. 1,000 catties of 400-year-old wine. ”
Taigong looked around at the children of the Peng family standing in the courtyard, and said slowly: "The second thing, which is also what Ancestor Tuomeng said, appoints Peng Hai in the clan as the head of the Peng family, in charge of everything outside the family. ”
Ye Tian looked at the four sons of the Taigong, except for the uncle who looked up at Peng Hai, the other three people all lowered their eyes, and from their eyes, Ye Tian did not find any unconvincing or resistant. Presumably it was the ancestor of the Peng family who spoke, and no one dared to stand up and question it.
Taigong looked at the silent crowd and asked, "Does anyone have any objections?" Since there is none, then the position of the head of the Peng family will take effect immediately, and Peng Hai will be fully responsible for any external problems in the future. ”
Taigong glanced at Ye Tian, cleared his throat and continued: "Then, prepare for the ancestor worship activities in the ancestral hall of the Peng family. ”
"Taigong, I have something I want to discuss with you. As soon as Ye Tian spoke, the third and fourth uncles raised their heads almost reflexively, looking at Ye Tian with a trace of anger and horror in their eyes.
"Ye Tian, you say. ”
"Brother Dahai told me this morning that Lao Zutuomeng wanted to punish Brother Xiaotao to go to Pomfret Island to work for three months, and I wanted to intercede for Brother Xiaotao and a few of them. Ye Tianyi clenched his fists: "After all, Brother Xiaotao has been living and studying overseas, and it is normal for him to lack some understanding of his ancestors." Besides, Brother Xiaotao, they are all international students with real materials in their stomachs, and it is a waste of talent to put them on the island, do you say that they are too public. When Ye Tian said this, he looked at the third and fourth uncles with a grateful face, and then looked at the excited Peng Tao, and continued to say to the Taigong: "So, Taigong, I want to ask you for a favor, so let Brother Xiaotao work in the old mansion for three months, instead of going to the island to work, do you think it's okay?"
"Hmph, if it weren't for Ye Tian's intercession, you would all go to the island to work for three months! In the future, you must remember that there are people outside the sky, don't come back every day with the little foreign things you learned to question this and that!" Taigong pondered for a moment, and said to Peng Tao and the others with a cold face. Peng Tao and the others glanced at Ye Tian and Peng Hai gratefully, and hurriedly nodded yes.
"Then let's start worshipping our ancestors. ”
"Taigong, then I'll hurry back to Yanjing, there are many things to deal with over there, and I'll come to see you when I'm free." ”
"How can this be done, we have to eat together at the dinner after the ancestor worship. ”
Ye Tian hurriedly smiled and waved his hand and said, "Taigong, I'm really not polite to you, if I didn't want to clarify the matter of Peng Zutuomeng, I would have left yesterday." We're not far away, I'll come back to see you when I'm free. ”
Taigong raised his head, looked at Ye Tian seriously, and suddenly said with a smile: "Good boy, I will often come to see my old man when I have time in the future, and accompany my old man to bask in the sun and talk." ”
"Don't worry, I'll leave then. ”
"Peng Hai Peng Tao, the two of you will send Ye Tian, and the rest of you are going to open an ancestral hall to worship your ancestors. ”
"Uncle, second uncle, third uncle, fourth uncle, I'll go back. If you have the opportunity to go to Yanjing, call me, and I will accompany you to have a drink and chat. ”
The second uncle looked at Ye Tian with a complicated expression, and regretted a little in his heart why he didn't warm up with Ye Tian more. From this alone, it can be seen that the resource background behind this Ye Tian is so strong that it is against the sky. It's ridiculous that everyone thinks that Taigong is an old fool and Ye Tian is a big liar.
The third uncle and the fourth uncle were full of gratitude and hugged Ye Tian. Many people heard about the gambling contract that night, and at their age and social status, their faces were sometimes more important than their lives. Let them serve tea to a junior and admit their mistakes, it is better to kill them.
Taigong didn't say a word, in order to save them and the face of the Peng family. But if Ye Tian insisted on mentioning this matter, Taigong would definitely stand up and preside over the completion of this gambling contract.
"Ye Tian, come to play often in the future. Uncle said to Ye Tian with a smile.
"Ye Tian, I... ”
"Little brother, let's not be polite. If I were you, I would also think that this matter was strange. Ye Tian smiled and shook Peng Tao's hand: "Besides, didn't I pour too much of you that night, let's settle down, I will come or you go in the future, we have to drink well." ”
"Hmm!" Peng Tao shook Ye Tian's hand vigorously. He studied abroad and has always received a materialist education, and this time he has been taught a lesson, but it can be regarded as an eye-opener.
"Ye Tian, then I won't say too much, I'll come when I'm free. Peng Hai shook hands with Ye Tian and beckoned to his driver.
"Big brother, don't be so troublesome. I'll just take the hotel car and go. But I rented a car, and you can find someone to send it back for me when you have time. There is a little episode in it, in order to avoid trouble, when you send someone over, you can just say that the Peng family has it. ”
Peng Hai nodded, took Ye Tian's car keys and said, "The Peng family can still do these little things." ”
Sitting in Maybach, Ye Tian couldn't help but sigh that ginger was still old and spicy. The old lady of the Peng family is as stable as Mount Tai in her life, and she has done things for Ye Tian, but she will not embarrass the Peng family.
There is no airport in Meiwan, and Maybach carried Ye Tian all the way to Jinjiang Airport, which is 300 kilometers away from Meiwan. As soon as Ye Tian got out of the car, Peng Hai's call came in.
"Ye Tian, I'm alone in the old mansion with my grandfather, I told the truth to my grandfather and his old man. You wait, Taigong wants to talk to you on the phone. ”
"Ye Tian, you kid is really amazing. On the phone, the old man was full of energy, like a sturdy old man in his sixties. Through the microphone, Ye Tian could imagine the old man's happy face.
"How about Taigong, don't you feel good?"
"It's not just good, Peng Hai gave me at that time and I took it and ate it, and if I said it from my heart, I should eat a *** game. But ah, I really didn't expect that less than two hours after eating, the whole body began to change dramatically. This kindness, the Peng family wrote down. Xiaohai, a child who has little eye for caution, told me at the time when he saw such a big effect. ”
"Hehe, Taigong, you are a great blessing, don't thank me. ”
"Good boy! Taigong doesn't say so many polite words to you, so he has time to come and play. ”
Taigong returned the phone to Peng Hai, and Peng Hai chatted with Ye Tian again.
"Ye Tian, the prince promised to write Peng Juan into the family tree. This has been my biggest wish for so many years, and thank you for helping me achieve it. ”
"Is this okay?" Ye Tian asked curiously.
"Taigong has three wives, hehe, what's wrong with this. There is no monogamy in the ancestral training of the Peng family. Peng Hai sighed and said, "But without you, all this would not be possible." ”
"It's a pity that I won six million. Ye Tian smiled and joked: "I'll just give you two a gift." ”
People, especially those who are old and have status and wealth, what they care about most is whether they can live a few more years healthy and sober. Ye Tian fulfilled the old man's wish, and this kindness was just like what the old lady said, and the Peng family would record it up and down.
Do you want to go back and fool Senior Brother to get a few more pills to use for self-defense? Ye Tian pinched his chin and thought with a wicked smile.
