"Zhang Wei, why did you come here not long after returning to the village, have you eaten, our family is eating!"

"Don't eat it, isn't your eldest brother there? There is something urgent to find. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

"What's so urgent, my eldest brother has entered the mountain today, and it's the same with me and my second brother if there is something."

"Something happened to your fourth uncle's family, oh no, it was an accident in the big house. I'll just put it simply, Uncle Lin's Yuzhen's family has changed again, the Zhou family only agreed to let her be a concubine, Uncle Jialin didn't agree, Yuzhen actually went to the Zhou family to be a concubine by herself, or the village chief of Zhoujia Village came to say it, and he fainted angrily, and there was a commotion over there! ”

Zhang Wei wiped his sweat, and continued: "When I came, the old village chief had already woken up, and called Uncle Jialin's family over, and wanted to punish Uncle Jialin, Wen Qing and Wen Yuan stopped and wanted to be punished on their behalf, in addition to this, they also had to expel Yuzhen." I saw that your eldest brother was worried about Wen Qing and Wen Yuan last time, so you came to look for it, come with me and take a look! ”

"What's going on, I'm going to find my second brother!"

Zhang Jiaxuan walked out and said, "Don't look for it, I'll go over with you to take a look." Jiaze, you go to the mountains to get the eldest brother back. ”

"Got it, I'll go!"

Zhang Yue'er, who was in the house, also heard the conversation in the courtyard, and originally wanted to follow her, but the second brother said that there was a lot of trouble over there and she refused to let it, so she had to follow her eldest sister to watch the house at home.

When it got dark, the second brother and the eldest brother and the third brother who followed behind all came back.

"Big brother, what's going on over there? Also, why did the grandfather punish them like that? Zhang Yueyao has been worried since they went out one by one, but it is not good to go outside, and when she saw them coming back, she asked anxiously.

"Don't worry. Jia Xuan, Jia Ze, you go and make dinner, make more, and wait for Jia Xuan and I to take some to Brother Jia Lin's side to have a look. ”

After Zhang Jiahang finished speaking, he asked Yueyao and Yue'er to sit down one by one and told them about Yuzhen.

The Zhou family thought that Yuzhen was not qualified to be the main room, and was only willing to accept it as a concubine, so Brother Jia Lin refused, but Yuzhen insisted on marrying into the Zhou family, which is against the family rules and against the family rules. If Zhuang Li knew that she would be expelled from the family and the clan if she was willing to be a concubine, Brother Jia Lin wanted to suppress this matter, so he locked Yuzhen at home and didn't let her go out. ”

"Zhou An of the Zhou family is seriously ill, and he is anxious to let Yuzhen enter the door, this is the words of the old monk of Yunshan Temple, and he thinks that Yuzhen can help prevent disasters when he enters the door. But Brother Lin refused to let him in, so he bought the sister-in-law in the second room of the third uncle's family, lied that the third uncle was seriously ill, and said that this family affair was matched by the third uncle, and he couldn't bear to see her in Yuzhen's illness, so he took the person away. ”

"Early this morning, the village chief of Zhoujia Village came to say hello to the grandfather, and said that Yuzhen and Zhou An had been married, but the relatives didn't do anything, and in the end, it was said that Yuzhen had officially become Zhou An's concubine yesterday, which made the grandfather angry, and then the third uncle and the third uncle who heard the news also came to tell the story in person, and pulled the sister-in-law of the second room over to beg the grandfather to admit his mistake."

"As for the punishment, it is because Brother Jia Lin did not raise his daughter well, and he also concealed the matter, which is a punishment according to the clan rules. Brother Jia Lin was called over and learned the truth of the matter, and he was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot, it was Wen Qing and Wen Yuan who each suffered ten battles on their behalf, and the fourth uncle also suffered it, and it was Brother Jia Ming who suffered it on his behalf. ”

Zhang Yue'er listened and secretly wiped her sweat, who is unlucky for such a girl, first harmed her mother, and now she hurts her father, brother, and people in the old house, how harmful this must be!

Turning his head and asking, "Big brother, what are the family rules and family rules you are talking about?" How I haven't heard of it before. ”

Zhang Yueyao also looked at it, and she didn't know.

"A man shall not take a concubine, and a woman shall not be willing to be a concubine, and a man shall not be allowed to take a concubine in his thirties. No one shall be willing to be a slave, shall not do the most heinous things, shall not betray the clan, shall not collude with people of other races and obey the orders of the patriarch, if one of the above is violated, the family will be expelled, this is our family rule. ”

It was the first time for Zhang Yue'er to hear such family rules, and she always felt weird, and asked, "Who stipulates these family rules?" Is it Daddy? ”

"No, this is the family rules of each family in Zhangjiazhuang, the Zhang family is passed down orally from generation to generation by the head of each family, and the foreign surname of Xizhuang is agreed upon when they settle in the village." Zhang Jiahang explained.

"Big brother, since it's a family rule that everyone knows, why haven't I heard you say it before?" Zhang Yueyao also asked.

Zhang Jiahang knew that they would ask like this, and said with a wry smile: "Yueyao, it's the first time I've heard about family rules. Dad hadn't mentioned it to me before, but Grandpa didn't tell me because he thought I knew. ”

"Big brother, you mean you don't know? How is this possible? ”

"Nothing is impossible. Yueyao, do you remember when we were young, when we often chased and asked about things in the clan and the village, my father always avoided harm and did not answer, if he didn't ask too much, he wouldn't say anything. Now that I think about it, my father probably didn't want us to know this, probably because of those things in the past, he was cold to Zhangjiazhuang! ”

Zhang Yueyao remembered those things in the past and nodded sadly.

"I remember those. At that time, our family only had a relationship with Uncle Zhao and Uncle Qi, and it was only later that we moved around with Brother Jishan and Brother Yongping. ”

Seeing them like this, Zhang Yue'er interrupted: "What about the clan rules? Eldest brother. Also, does the Zhou family know about this? ”

"I only know that the first of the family rules is also a family rule, and the others are not clear, and I only learned about it today. It's inconvenient for me to ask my grandfather, the family rules were told to me by Brother Jishan. Zhangjiazhuang's family rules are not passed on, but the nearby Zhoujia Village, Lijia Village, and Xujia Village know some, and it is said that their ancestors have followed the ancestors of the Zhang family, such as the head of Zhou Village who came today, but even if they know, they will not pass it on at will. The Zhou family is related to the head of the Zhou village, so they should know something. ”

"Then how did the grandfather deal with Yuzhen?"

"Originally, it was to be done according to the rules, but the fourth uncle knelt down and begged for mercy, saying that Yuzhen was deceived before she ran to be a concubine in private, and then the uncle, the second uncle, and the third uncle all interceded, so the grandfather gave a chance, and asked the fourth uncle to go to Zhou's house tomorrow to bring people back and then reveal it."

"Big brother, I heard you right, right? You say that the fourth uncle knelt down and pleaded? ”

"Hmm. We were all surprised this time, and it was. Brother Jia Lin and Xiuying's sister-in-law were sent back later, Wen Qing and Wen Yuan begged for nothing, it was the result of the four uncles' hard work. Later, I heard that the agreement with the Zhou family to compensate for the silver was made by the fourth uncle alone, because the fourth uncle originally planned to divorce the fourth uncle, but the clerk treated the injury and asked for the silver just to solve the urgency before it was opened, I think it was because of this fourth uncle that he begged for it.
