Chapter

As Chen Xu's aunt expected, the big village of the clan was basically completed after a year, in fact, in the first link of the construction period that day, the local young men and migrant workers dug up the bones on the top of the red mountain, and some mysterious events occurred, but there were crazy gods and immortals on the stage, and there were no mysterious and mysterious events, which also made the old housekeeper and tens of millions of migrant workers at peace in their hearts, and the enthusiasm of migrant workers was greatly improved. Originally, it was planned that it would take two years to complete the project, but the big project was almost ** months ahead of schedule. This has to be said to be a happy event for the elders of the big clan.

The provincial chairman has devoted a lot of effort to the completion of Dazhai, this project can be said to have invested great manpower and material resources, the provincial chairman is looking forward to the descendants of the clan of the big clan can settle down here in the future, multiply, so in the design, employment, planning are all required to be perfect.

Because the traditional clan concept in the local area is very strong, just as a sentence says that the village is built first, the temple is on top, and the genealogy on the big family also says: to build a palace, it is not more important than building an ancestral hall, the patriarchal law is clear, inheriting the heirs, praying for the ancestors, condensing people's hearts, and the temple must be the temple, so the pattern on the Dazhai is the top priority of the ancestral hall of the big family, but this is the main style of Dazhai is more distinct.

This covers an area of 60,000 square meters of Dazhai, because the provincial chairman has been involved in officialdom for half his life, and is parasitic to the dynasty, so it also has a slight atmosphere of the official mansion in style, which is equipped with: attic hall, treasury storage room, study ink room, Buddhist temple. The living room of the official mansion, the restaurant Shifang can be said to be readily available, and the architectural form also includes the appearance of a horse trailer, a hundred birds and a phoenix, a golden rooster is independent, and a kiwi begging for a peach.

Most of the funds allocated by the dynasty, do not worry about no money, the provincial chairman also invited the neighboring counties of Pu'an County, known as the people of Luban, a first-class carpenter to add extraordinary characteristics to the structure of Dazhai, the whole one looks brilliant, the carving is very beautiful.

As long as it is a happy event and a good thing in Pu'an County, the people in the family will want to send invitations to congratulate the clansmen, as big as getting married and having children, and a small old ox giving birth to a calf, these as long as the host family is willing to send invitations, set up a table to drink, to celebrate.

What's more, it is a major event that Dazhai is about to be built, and what the provincial chairman wants is that the clan relatives of the big clan will use this Dazhai as a place for prosperity, so his bodyguards sent invitations to the clansmen, inviting them to move over and live here.

On this day, Chen Xu's aunt received an invitation from the provincial chairman, so she mobilized Chen Xu early to move all the useful things in the house to the ox cart in front of the door.

Chen Xu took a broom in the room, walked outside the courtyard, and was about to start cleaning, Chen Xu's aunt said: Silly child, what are you still doing, don't need to clean, go over and unload the mill in the firewood room and put it on the ox cart.

Mother, why don't you clean this house, after we go to live in the big village, no one will live here in the future, and naturally no one will come to clean it.

It's just that there is no one to live, so there is no need to do this to clean up, anyway, there will be dust and fallen leaves here in the future, go and unload the mill.

Mother, there is no need to unload the mill, the clan relatives have only given us two ox carts, and there are so many things here, if we use another mill to pile them up, we will not be able to put the rest of the important things.

That's the reason, well, you don't need to take the mill away, you go and catch a group of concubine chickens, tie their chicken feet, put them on the basket, and take them away.

When Chen Xu arrived in the vegetable garden, he saw a group of concubine chickens still pecking at the golden grains on the ground as usual, if they couldn't enjoy such sufficient food in normal times, Chen Xu's aunt just wanted to feed these concubine chickens to their heart's content, and it was best to make these chickens slow to make it easier for people to arrest.

But these are actually not needed, two years ago Chen Xu's aunt raised more than a dozen Jiangxi white geese and a group of Luhua chickens, Chen Xu this person prefers the big white goose, not too much like the rooster, at that time, he often accompanied these white geese to play, and at this time, the habits of chickens and geese were thoroughly understood, and he also knew how to quickly catch these poultry.

The white goose is an interesting animal, both as an ornamental animal, and as a human playmate, their cute every move is very funny, usually when eating, always pecked a mouthful of rice bran in the basin, and then drank a mouthful of water on the grass, by the way also pecked a mouthful of fresh mud, probably in this way to feel the taste of it, it is precisely like this, when eating so cramped and uneasy, the flower dog lying in the vegetable garden around will often run over to steal food, but the white goose posture is arrogant, not afraid of heaven and earth, The dog immediately fled as he barked over, but it was very easy for people to catch, and they came majestically in front of people, and they could be grabbed by the neck with a single stretch of hand.

This is not the case with chickens, they are the most noisy, but as long as there is a way to catch them, it is very simple, when they come on the open ground, their left eye usually looks at the person, and the right eye is looking at somewhere else, and the place where they look with their right eye is the direction of escape.

At this time, Chen Xu caught the characteristics of these chickens, walked with a smile, threw a basket to the ground, and the chickens flapped their wings and ran away, Chen Xu had already prepared, reached out and grabbed the live chickens, and after a while, they were all caught, and the grass rope tied their feet and put them on the basket.

The two old oxen dragging the cart rack on the door mooed and made a sound, a basket of chaise chickens was put up, they still had a relaxed expression, a basket of clothes and a washboard of the laundry rack were put up or like this, and after a while, the two ox carts were full of clothes, flower pots, wooden shelves, stoves, pots and pans, tables and chairs, but the old cattle still didn't seem to feel the increase in weight, still mooed and made a sound, very relaxed, the old cattle are so hard-working, hard work, This may be the reason why people love them and can't live without them.

Chen Xu and Chen Xu's aunt stood outside the door, and when they were about to leave, the unicorn dog jumped down from the wall, whining, walking back in front of and behind them, Chen Xu touched its jaw, and said gently: Don't worry, this move, I will never forget you, I will bring you to Dazhai, and I will be with us in the future.

But the unicorn dog still whined, as if it was very uneasy, and with a hint of panic in its eyes, it walked behind Chen Xu and bit its clothes, making him unable to take a step.

Strange, the unicorn is not hungry, mother, in the morning, did you not give it food, it has never been like this before.

When I got up in the morning, I had a baby, why would I be hungry at this time, this dog's life is better than that of a living person. Chen Xu's aunt took out a piece of sauce cake from the oiled paper and skimmed it to the ground, but the unicorn dog ignored the usual favorite food, and still bit the clothes behind Chen Xu.

Chen Xu's aunt was anxious to leave, so she took care of so much, and said: I think this dog is used to living in this place, and has feelings for this place, and is reluctant to go, in fact, we don't have feelings for this old house, but most of the people in the village are the clansmen of the big clan, if we don't go, there will be only one of us left on this alley in the future, if there are any thieves and thieves in the future, how can we defend ourselves, we have to go, Chen Xu, the big dog does not go, so he hugged him and got into the car.

After a year, the unicorn dog is even stronger now, with huge roots, mighty, powerful, and powerful, looking at it from a distance, if it is not very special, it really looks like a lion, when Chen Xu came to hug him, he was stunned and couldn't hold it.

You stupid child, your hands and feet are so gentle, the unicorn dog is so big, so you can hold it in the car, or look at me Chen Xu's aunt is a beautiful and gentle woman, but she goes to the fields all the year round to do farm work, carrying the burden and pushing the grinding plate, and her strength is also very great, although the temperament is very gentle and elegant, but sometimes the actions made are rough and strong as men, in fact, this is not contradictory, isn't it just upholding the heart of righteousness and goodness, the gods and Buddhas of all living beings don't still have King Kong angry eyes, the Bodhisattva raised his eyebrows and said, I saw her roll up the sleeves on her pink arms, grabbed the thick fur of the unicorn dog and pulled it to the ox cart, Chen Xu stood on the ground, held the buttocks of the unicorn dog, and pushed it into the cart with a sudden force.

The old scalper, who was relaxed just now, saw the unicorn dog get into the car, his legs trembled, his eyes were full of a trace of horror, hiss, strange, Kai'er, what kind of sound was that, and a little fishy.

Chen Xu looked at the belly of the cow, it turned out that the old ox was running for yellow urine, these two old cattle were frightened by the characteristics of the unicorn dog and the majestic posture to pee, if it weren't for Chen Xu and Chen Xu's aunt guarding both sides of the unicorn dog, I'm afraid that this cow would be scared to run out for a while.

In fact, the unicorn is extremely sensitive by nature, can predict the danger on the road ahead, and it can faintly feel that the owner moves to live elsewhere, and there will be unpredictable and bad things happening, so it becomes so uneasy and tries to let them stay.

But Chen Xu's aunt didn't like it, so she didn't know its nature, and at this time, Chen Xu learned that the clan would officiate for him in a month, and Wan Jiaojiao would marry him at that time, and she didn't think much about it when she was happy.

Shhh, Chen Xu whipped the sluggish old scalper, and the axle turned around, Chen Xu's aunt was swirling with tears in her eyes at this time, Chen Xu turned around, Mother, what's wrong with you, why are you shedding tears.

It's okay, there was a gust of wind just now, and the sand and dust have entered my eyes, don't worry too much, be careful with your car. Yes, I moved, so I don't make Chen Xu's aunt sad, Chen Xu's aunt has lived here for decades, and she loves and loves Kai's father here, respects each other like guests, and supports each other, and she also gave birth to Chen Xu here, watching him grow up, not sad, it's strange.

After Chen Xu and Chen Xu's aunt left, the dilapidated but still outstanding mansion behind them blew a gust of wind, squirming, the sycamore tree in the courtyard fell leaves, the gray-brown chickens on the trunk creaked, the incense burner on the window of the house, the incense ash rolled into a small whirl and floated out, and the photos of Chen Xu's grandmother and grandfather on the table oozed tears, and from time to time there was a crying sound coming out. But Chen Xu's aunt and Chen Xu couldn't see the sadness of the soul in the sky.

Halfway through, the car was on the woods road, hey, mother, look, who is that Chen Xu's aunt looked, Ah Fu was holding a grass root in his mouth, singing a little tune, waving a whip to drive the car.

Wan Jiaojiao, who was sitting in the car and weaving hemp ropes, also saw them, Brother Kai, Auntie, you are here, I was about to look for you just now, but my brother said that he was in a hurry, and there was only one ox cart to come back later, so he left, but he met you here.

Wan Jiaojiao shouted, Ah Fu hurriedly turned around, brother, stop the car, I want to sit with Brother Kai

Shhh, the ox cart stopped, Wan Jiaojiao jumped out of the car, Ah Fu smiled and muttered in the car: This dead girl, she hasn't married Chen Xu yet, she is so close to outsiders, and she will forget my brother when the time comes.

Wan Jiaojiao did it in Chen Xu's rickety ox cart, Chen Xu's aunt smiled: That's it, this car can't sit so many people, I'll go to the back to catch another car, otherwise it won't be able to catch up.

Soon, the three ox carts drove side by side, Ah Fu threw a kettle towards Chen Xu's ox cart, and said to Chen Xu's aunt with a simple smile: Mother-in-law, are you tired, why don't you rest for a while and drink some water.

Hey, mother-in-law, Wan Jiaojiao, can you hear what your brother meant, look how kind he calls my mother. Chen Xu waved the whip in his hand and said to Wan Jiaojiao with a grin.

Oh, you're so bad, you like to play tricks on people, I ignore you, Wan Jiaojiao attached it to Chen Xu's shoulder, teasing Chen Xu's squeaky armpit.

Oh, Wan Jiaojiao, don't make trouble, it's so itchy, I still have to catch the car

In the middle of Dazhai, Chen Xu looked at it, only to see that the built Dazhai was more like sitting on a low hill, a height of 100 meters above the flat land, it used to be a red mud, but after tens of thousands of people surveyed and transported soil, it is no longer a mountain, but it is still surrounded by endless mountains and woods, this Dazhai rises from the ground, and it is full of people's breath. It is really extraordinary manpower, which has achieved this great miracle and turned this place into the largest building complex in Shaanxi Province.

Chen Xu looked at the surrounding environment, the whole piece is dirt, the ground has not been put on the green bricks, the road is still very slippery, from time to time there are clansmen's vehicles driving over, leaving deep ruts on the ground, the southeast and northwest of the big village are growing very lush dwarf shrubs from, gradually, more and more people in the big village, frightened the and small yellow birds in all directions, one or two big gray rabbits came out of the grass, dandelions floated in the air, fell on the heads of the children, and the children caught the ground, The adults stepped on the soft mud ground, and the wild cockroaches, tiger back crickets, and locusts jumped long in panic, and the wild buds and small peas crackled in the cracks in the ground.

Chen Xu's seniority in the genealogy of the big clan is quite high, so when there is a red and white happy event in the big clan and a man comes forward, Chen Xu's father is no longer there, and according to the rules, Chen Xu can also sit on the throne of the family elder.

So many children have to call Chen Xu uncle according to their seniority, at least they have to call Chen Xu uncle, at this time, many of their own people in the clan, driving ox carts, carrying hoes, dragging pears in their hands, with their own children around them, Chen Xu saw adults, when he was about fifty years old, Chen Xu half hunched his waist, affectionately called them uncle or aunt, several middle-aged people who came forward, all said: Chen Xu, in the village on weekdays, when he met us in ten days and half a month, he opened his mouth and what to call, But now that I have moved into the big village of the big clan with my aunt, I will definitely look down and see you in the future, saying that I can do things according to our genealogy in the future, calling us eldest brother and sister-in-law.

Chen Xu said with a smile: I'm used to it, I'm afraid I won't be able to change my mouth in the future, you are much older than me, what else can I discuss if I call you so, if so, I won't be able to open my mouth.

Wan Jiaojiao leaned over and said, "Uncle, if my aunt is like this, my brother and I are one level younger in the clan than Brother Kai, so do you have to call him an uncle in the future?"

That's right, Wan Jiaojiao, you can call me uncle in the future, I really responded unceremoniously. Wan Jiaojiao hit Chen Xu's shoulder twice, spitted, hum, hateful, if I really screamed, if you dare to respond, then I will beat you.

Watching these two young people flirting and scolding, people saw that they liked and envied each other in their hearts, young people liked to joke very much, and one person stood up and said: Wan Jiaojiao, if you marry Brother Chen Xu, then your future generations will be the same, you can still sit on an equal footing, and even always press him.

Wan Jiaojiao said coquettishly: I hate it, you made me an aunt, and my nephew dared to make a joke about my aunt, it was really unfilial

The people around laughed, hehehe, a group of children dragged into the hands of their parents, and they all came to call Chen Xu the eldest brother, and their parents all pointed to Chen Xu's face and said: You can't call Chen Xu's seniority lower, you have to call him Uncle Kai in the future, remember.

The children all pouted, na, uncle Hao called at Chen Xu's aunt again, grandma is good, Chen Xu's aunt has never heard children call her grandma, they all smiled and narrowed into a slit, touched the child's braided hair, and laughed: Child, it's really well-behaved, I'll give you candy to eat later.

Everyone's name for the generation, it seems to be disproportionate, but it expresses a clan concept, to this big village, immediately reflects a kind of clan cohesion, which is also the provincial chairman likes to see the result, if he saw the scene just now, he will definitely feel very gratified.

Dazhai is a piece of the provincial chairman's hard work, but Dazhai to the basic completion of the time, he has a physical problem, understand not to understand the head hurts, pain, like a needle knife hanging, people are painful, very unbearable, the old housekeeper also thought that the provincial chairman is just this period of overwork, the body is a little unbearable, do not pay attention to the rest of the disease, as long as a few days of rest is good, the doctor invited at that time, it took a long time but can not diagnose the provincial chairman of the disease is caused by what, When the old doctor stepped down, the provincial chairman asked him what kind of disease he had, and the doctor did not know the severity of the disease or its origin, so he could only give a so-called name called Cao Cao's disease in combination with the adult's performance when he became ill.

In the eyes of this doctor, it is true that the condition of the provincial chairman is quite consistent with Cao Cao's headache before the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, thinking that when Cao Cao led his troops to recruit Yuan Shao, he was in pain, anxious to faint, or Chen Lin's article scolded him so that his blood flowed backwards, his muscles and bones were comfortable, and finally he was cured without medicine, the old doctor remembered this allusion, so he said, the old doctor thought: Cao Cao had a headache back then, because he was ruthless, murderous, and there were often little ghosts behind him. And now the adults are suffering from almost the same symptoms, but there are evil spirits haunting them. I was scared to think about it, but in order to stabilize the mood of the provincial chairman, he still said that as long as he paid attention to his eating habits, did not overwork, and combined work and rest on weekdays, his condition would soon improve.

On this day, seeing the clansmen have successively moved into Dazhai from various villages in Hongshan Township, the face of the provincial chairman was full of joy, and his heart was very happy, with his happy energy, but he suppressed the evil disease that had been latent in his body, and that night, he also ordered people to hold a feast on the field of Dazhai to invite the villagers.

The elders on the table of all parties stood up one after another, and on behalf of the relatives of the great clan, they put wine in front of the provincial chairman, thanking him for not forgetting the foundation of his life when he was soaring, and giving his clan relatives such a place to settle down and thrive, and the more than 1,000 clan relatives on the table, the old and the young, all knelt on the ground and thanked the provincial chairman for his great kindness.

The adults were moved with tears rolling in their eyes, and hurriedly instructed the people around them to help the elders up, and said: Thanks to the love of your relatives, I retired from the dynasty and returned to my hometown, not only did I regard me as an outsider, but regarded me as your long-lost relatives, and I buried this friendship in my heart.

Yes, yes, my lord is right, we are all a family, and a thousand words are inexhaustible, just in the wine glass, everyone drank and said the elder of the good word generation.

The provincial chairman also said: Yes, yes, everyone eats and drinks, if there is no cooperation of everyone, this majestic and extraordinary village cannot be established in such a quick time, everyone has worked hard, come to drink.

Before, the clan relatives, including Chen Xu, respected the provincial chairman, just because of his high position, but now he respects him from the heart, has complete virtues, and has far-reaching vision.
