55. Chapter 55
After all the things were unloaded from the car, Yan Mu stepped forward and said to Yan Chengke: "These things are a little bit of our old man's heart, and we didn't know how many families there were in Yanjia Village before we came, so we brought more things-"
Yan Cheng Ke didn't have so much patience to spend here with them, and immediately interrupted Yan Mu's words: "Yan Lao, the clan elders have been waiting in the ancestral hall for a long time, do you think we should go to the ancestral hall first?" ”
"In that case, let's go!" Yan Huai's face was also stunned, and he immediately relieved himself and said.
Yan Chengke and the people of Yanjia Village around him patted the dust on their bodies one by one, and took the lead in walking towards the ancestral hall. Simply put the people of the Yan clan in the same place.
Yan Huai's whole face was not good, and the people of the Nanhai Yan clan next to him suddenly couldn't help but be angry, they had never looked down on others, and it was their turn to have others to show their faces.
"Grandpa-" Yan Qi immediately looked at Yan Huai in the middle. Their banquet family is one of the six major Chinese families in Nanyang, and he is his grandfather's favorite grandson.
"Alright." Yan Huai stretched out his left hand and stopped Yan Qi's words. "After all, we have to ask for others, and we don't care about them."
"Leave a few people watching, and we'll follow." Yan Huai said helplessly.
When they came to the ancestral hall, the people of Yanjia Village had been waiting for a long time. As soon as the people from the Nanhai Banquet family came in, the old men sitting in the center of the ancestral hall did not move, and they still looked like old gods were at ease. Not to mention the people from Yanjia Village next to him, they stared straight at this group of people.
The atmosphere around immediately cooled. Yan Huai, who was on crutches, suddenly had a surge on his face. waited until the anger in his heart subsided a little, then he pulled out a smiling face and said, "Yan Huai has seen all the old brothers here." ”
This old brother naturally refers to the few clan elders sitting in the seats. God knows, when he said this old brother, his heart trembled, he was used to being in a high position, and no one could make him say a word of brother on weekdays, if it weren't for the fact that these people were indeed related to him, he couldn't offend them at this juncture. Yan Huai simply wanted to turn around and leave.
The third grandfather glanced at Yan Huai and said, "Today was not the day for us to worship our ancestors in Yanjia Village, but since you are here, then you should make a small sacrifice first!" ”
"It's nature." Yan Huai immediately nodded and said.
Hearing this, Yan Chengke immediately came over to tie a red ribbon around the waist of the third grandfather, and after a while, all kinds of sacrifices were placed on the table, and incense was distributed to the people of the Nanyang Yan clan present.
"Kneel." I only heard Yan Chengke shouting loudly. The third grandfather and Yan Huai, who were in front of the line, suddenly knelt down.
But the people of the Yan clan who stayed behind couldn't help but freeze, pinching the incense in their hands and being a little reluctant. Why do you want to kneel in front of a bunch of people you don't know your ancestors, the most important thing is that this group of people you don't know have just offended them. And among them, there is naturally a feast.
The eyes of the people of Yanjia Village were all immediately focused on these people. The few people next to him couldn't bear this kind of angry gaze, hesitated for a while, and then knelt down, only Yan Qi still looked awe-inspiring, with his chin held high, standing in the middle of the crowd.
Originally, he was still wondering if Yan Chengke would continue to sing the banquet, but subconsciously looked behind him, and saw the independent banquet of the golden rooster, and was thinking about scolding. Who knew that before he could say it, he saw the banquet plop down and kneel, and the sound made everyone present suddenly feel a pain in their flesh.
"First incense." I only heard Yan Chengke singing. Yan Huai hurriedly turned around, raised the incense above his head, and bowed down.
Yan Qi only felt that he was in a trance, as if he subconsciously followed Yan Chengke's singing and swaying.
"Incense again."
"Mikami."
"The priest got up." The third grandfather then stood up and bowed to the side.
"The Celebrant's Prayer." Yan Chengke then shouted.
Yan Huai was stunned for a while, he just wanted to rush here, and completely forgot about the sacrificial text. I'm thinking about how to get through this. Yan Mu behind him immediately handed over a piece of paper, looking at the words on it, Yan Huai immediately put his mind at ease and said:
"My hometown and I are separated by the sea; Grace is affectionate and unforgettable. The ancestors are unforgettable, and the wings are unforgettable......"
Hearing this, the faces of several clan elders suddenly cracked. If you don't write a sacrifice, forget it, let's not pursue it for the sake of your old age, but you
Yan Mu, who was kneeling on the side, keenly felt the strange atmosphere around him, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
Like Yan Huai, who is self-righteous and has his eyes above the top, if something doesn't happen this time, otherwise the old guy who doesn't even want to recognize his ancestors will be willing to pay attention to these miscellaneous things on weekdays, and naturally he doesn't know the mother worship text that has been circulating in the mainland for a long time.
He wanted to see how Yan Huai had offended the people of Yanjia Village in this way, and how could he bury those coffins in Xishan. Since Yan Huai wanted to save Yan Huai by relying on feng shui, he didn't let Yan Huai get his wish.
"......" finally finished reading the things on the paper. , Yan Huai raised his hand and handed the sacrificial text in his hand to Yan Cheng Branch. I saw the other party's strange expression. I couldn't help asking, "What?" ”
Yan Chengke's face immediately stirred. He took the sacrificial text, took a deep breath and said, "The ceremony is over." ”
What else is there to say! Now his only thought was whether or not to blast them out of Yanjia Village.
Yan Qi slowly stood up with the help of Yan Chi, and he seemed to be able to feel that his knees were already bruised.
"I said, little brother, you must be too excited! Isn't it the first time to worship your ancestors! Even I feel pain in your great courtesy. Yan Chi said with a smile.
"You know a fart?" Yan Qi immediately reprimanded angrily. He couldn't say that he didn't know what was going on, so he fell to his knees in a trance.
"Tsk, I said that if you have that spiritual power to do this, you might as well dedicate it to me!" Chi He glanced at Yan Zhao, who was rummaging his fingers, and couldn't help but say.
"What do you know, obsessive-compulsive disorder like me, when I see this grasshopper jumping high, I can't help but give it to him." Yan Zhao then waved his hand.
"Hey, Akiko, what are you talking about!" Liu Haoran, who had just come in, said suddenly.
"It's nothing, the weather is really good, and I feel like my interest is coming up again." Yan Zhao said leisurely.
Liu Haoran looked up at the sun hanging high outside, and didn't know what to say.
"Brother! You also know that our ancestral hall is relatively small, and you have brought back so many coffins, I am afraid that I will not be able to put it in this small place! So I had to find a big room and vacate it. I hope my brother doesn't mind. The third grandfather said immediately.
Yan Huai also didn't mind, and immediately waved his hand and said, "Don't mind, this is originally my preparation work is not in place." ”
"That's good, if my brother doesn't blame him." The third grandfather said with satisfaction, but there was no trace of a smile in his eyes, how could a person who could even enter the ancestral hall at will really want to return to the clan of the Yan family.
"This is a gift list of the things I brought back when I returned to my hometown this time, after all, it is a little caution in the next family, I hope you don't shirk it." Yan Huai immediately took out a big red gift slip and handed it to the third grandfather.
The third grandfather casually turned the gift list, and when he opened it, he saw that the first line was 20,000 yuan in cash per household. Below there are a list of some electrical appliances, furniture and so on. The main thing is that there is another line behind it. For the elders, the village chief will receive another 30,000 yuan, and the rest of the village cadres will receive another 10,000 yuan.
The third grandfather casually handed the gift list in his hand to the banquet Cheng Branch beside him, and this gift list was turned back to the third grandfather in the crowd.
Yan Huai looked at the obviously unmoved expressions of the people in Yanjia Village, and was a little dissatisfied, and suddenly felt that these guys were too greedy, this gift was already a very rich gift in Yan Huai's opinion, but he didn't expect these guys to be unmoved, obviously because he felt that he had given less.
Yan Huai continued: "We are also willing to set up a scholarship fund for the children of Yanjia Village, so that as long as the children of Yanjia Village go to school in the future, they can pay for their tuition fees from here. ”
Hearing this, the third grandfather couldn't help but show a heartfelt smile. But I couldn't help sneering in my heart, such a big hand, but I didn't mention the matter of naturalization. He'd like to see what this guy has in mind.
"Thank you so much, brother. Our Yanjia Village was already poor, and many people dropped out of school because they couldn't afford to pay the tuition, and now the elder brother has sent a lot of money, and he is willing to pay the tuition for the children, which is simply the reinvention of our Yanjia Village. When my brother returns to my Yanjia Village to move the grave, our Yanjia Village will definitely cooperate. ”
Hearing this, Yan Huai also smiled. immediately said: "This, in fact, there is also one thing I want to discuss with a few people. ”
"It's okay to say anything, as long as we can do it, we will be willing to help." Yan Chengke immediately said boldly.
"That's good, actually! I returned to my hometown to follow my father's wishes. Looking at the eyes cast by everyone, Yan Huai continued: "This Xishan has always been a place for my father to play in his youth, and after he left, he has always been obsessed with Xishan, and told me to bury him back to Xishan in the future. So I don't know if the village can sell Nishiyama to me. ”
"Wait, I didn't get much of it, you say it again." The third grandfather plucked out his ears and said.
Feeling the atmosphere that suddenly fell silent, Yan Huai was shocked at first, but still continued: "I hope the village can sell Xishan-"
Before Yan Huai finished speaking, the third grandfather and several people immediately stood up, sneered and said: "Just with a guy like you who has forgotten your ancestors, you don't come to us to inquire about the situation, just want to think about Xishan, hum." Immediately he rushed out with a crowd of people.
The people who left the Yan clan looked at each other.
Yan Huai also knew that he had been tricked by others. "These old guys are too shameless."
Then he said to Yan Mu beside him: "Go and contact the local government department for me." ”
Yan Huai was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Okay! ”
Originally, I thought that in the face of this group of mud legs, as long as I gave a little favor, they would naturally rush to agree to what they wanted to do. It's just that in the current view, these Yanjia Village people are not the same as they imagined. And now it seems that he and others have offended them. Since the money road is no longer feasible, let's use the power of these government departments in River City to open the way.
