Compared with Xia Zhongguo's anger, the old lady's mood was much calmer, and after listening to her son's narration, she smiled lightly and said: "That's his father and mother, it's normal for him to come to worship, what's wrong with this!"

Xia Zhongguo saw that the old lady actually took it for granted that he came, and said angrily: "It's been more than thirty years, he thinks about it now, why did he go earlier?"

The old lady used her hands to tidy up her curly hair, which was a little messy because of cleaning, and then said slowly: "What do you say about worshipping your ancestors sooner or later, you come when you think about it, you kid, why can't you hold your breath?"

Xia Zhongguo looked at the old lady, his eyes widened in surprise, how did he feel that the old lady had changed a lot, not only the dress, but the biggest change was her bearing, she was not as impatient as before, as if everything was under control. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The old lady didn't care what the man was doing at this time, she was going to invite some elders of the clan to come over for dinner, and she had to prepare it quickly.

Here I told my son to invite someone, and I was busy with my two granddaughters.

At noon, the old lady asked Xia Li to burn the cauldron, slice the fresh rice cakes bought in the village, and then stir-fried the bottom of the pot with bacon, added water to put the rice cakes and some vegetables, and cooked a big pot of rice cake soup.

Xia Zhongguo ate the long-lost snacks of his hometown, and looked at the old lady's wanton smile, and the irritability in his heart gradually faded.

Invite someone to dinner in the evening, the old lady invited the four elders and patriarchs of the Xia family, as well as the Xia family's uncle's family to come over, the old lady knew that this granddaughter was very skilled, so she simply let Xia Li take charge of the spoon.

One table for men, one table for women and children, two plates of each dish need to be prepared, Xia Li began to prepare after calculating the heat and cold.

When the others came at six o'clock in the evening, Xia Li asked Xia He and a cousin of her grandfather's family to help put the cold dishes on the two tables.

Because the old lady of this banquet was invited for a purpose, the ingredients prepared were all good, and the kind of shrimp that was covered by the light base was dozens of dollars a catty.

Xia Li's hot dishes roast rooster, roasted fish pieces, braised oxtail, garlic and white cut meat are all burned in advance, and they can be heated again when they are served, so it doesn't take long for people to serve on the table, and the heat and cold are complete.

The old lady also came out of the hall inside, changed into new clothes for the New Year, first greeted the elders, and then greeted the uncle's family with a stiff look and sat down.

After the old lady sat down, the people at the men's table frequently looked at her, and the old lady took a sip of the wine in front of her, gently put it on the table and let out a long breath: "I invited the big guy to dinner today, I have something to inform." ”

Everyone looked over, and an old man sitting on the man's table stood up suddenly: "Brother and sister, this and this!"

The old lady waved her hand lightly and said, "Uncle He, I'm informing, not discussing!"

Seeing the resolute attitude of his younger siblings, the uncle of the Xia family sighed and had to sit down.

The old lady said: "I, He Huiqin, want to divorce Xia Chunsheng, from now on he is him, I am me, no longer a family, I He Huiqin is no longer the daughter-in-law of the Xia family, and I will not enter the ancestral grave of the Xia family if I die!"

The uncle of the Xia family is already seventy-eight or nine, and he was angry and anxious when he heard it: "Brother and sister, you, how can you be like this, this marriage can't be divorced, how can this be divorced!"

Several elders in the clan also knew that Xia Chunsheng was still alive, and brought a son about the same size as Zhongguo who said that he was his eldest son, and there was a grandson who was eight or nine years old.

Several elders in the clan sighed and were speechless, He Huiqin has been married to the Xia family for more than 50 years, serving the family, and working hard all her life, but she even lost her reputation, and was topped by a woman outside, and it is normal for people to divorce.

But this person first reported that he was missing, and then the county issued a document to report his death, and the household registration had long been cancelled.

Come to the Xia family again, they are military martyrs, because they are missing, so they don't enjoy the same treatment as the regular military martyrs, but then there is, from 77 years ago, and now it's more than 20 years, this person is alive again, how can this matter be counted?

The uncle of the Xia family was also in a complicated mood, and suddenly saw his younger brother who had been dead for many years, he was also happy, their Xia family was just him and his younger brother, the younger brother died, and he was left alone, now his younger brother is alive, the family business is also developing well, and there are two sons who are in the top household, and there are three grandchildren, how good this is, it shows that their old Xia family will continue for a long time.

But how did the younger brother and sister come over these years, he also saw it in his eyes, she was the daughter-in-law of the Xia family, she was on the family tree, and she also sent the two old pensions to the end, not only that, after the disappearance of her younger brother, she never married again, and she raised the two children by herself, and no one could figure it out if she put this matter aside, and she couldn't let it go.

The uncle of the Xia family is conflicted in his heart, one is a younger brother who has not seen him for many years, and the other is a younger brother and sister who has worked hard.

The patriarch of the Xia family is a forty-year-old middle-aged man, and after discussing with several clan relatives, he stood up and said: "He Huiqin is the daughter-in-law of my Xia family, who has dedicated her whole life, raising children and daughters, and serving the elderly, this matter is something Xia Chunsheng did not do right, and he lost his conscience, so our clan supported He Huiqin's divorce, and since then he has broken off with Xia Chunsheng, but Zhongguo and Lingling are both descendants of the Xia family, and this relationship cannot be broken, so..."

Xia Zhongguo stood up: "Patriarch, my sister and I grew up with the help of my mother from the Xia family, and we have nothing to do with him Xia Chunsheng, we don't change our surname, but our sister and brother and our descendants have no relationship with Xia Chunsheng, and since then, we have no father." ”

The old lady looked at her son with tears in her eyes and said to several clan elders: "I hope the clan elders can respect our family's opinions, no matter who is right or wrong in this matter, I just want to break it cleanly, and there is nothing else to ask for." ”

The uncle of the Xia family sighed for a long time, but the shrewd uncle persuaded him vigorously, it was the family's bloodline that could be broken if it was broken, and the child Zhongguo would not come to see him in the future, and the old man's mood would be better.

After everyone dispersed, the old lady drank a little too much, and was helped by Xia Li to change her clothes and lie down, there is no kang here, all of them are beds made of wood, bamboo and rattan, and they can't sleep if they don't live for a long time.
