Between the words, Huang Sisi, who I met in the teahouse before, came over as a receptionist with dishes with tears on his face.

Xia Sangzhi recognized Huang Sisilai in the crowd.

"Sisi, why are you here, what's wrong with you, why are you crying."

Huang Sisi looked at Chen Xu and said, "Brother Chen Xu, Huang Qianqian is my sister, I am its little sister, what should I do, the patriarch and the elders have always decided not to allow my sister to return to Huangjiawan." ”

Unexpectedly, things are so strange, Huang Sisi is Huang Qianqian's sister.

Wan Jiaojiao wiped the tears on her face with a tissue and Huang Sisi, and said, "Don't cry, don't cry, sister, I'll find a way." ”

Wan Jiaojiao took Chen Xu's arm and said, "Okay, Brother Xu, what should I do, I didn't expect Huang Sisi to be Huang Qianqian's sister." The sisterhood is deep, before in front of the city god in Shipaifang Village, I saw Huang Qianqian and Wu Pingyang violating each other's clan rules and truly loving each other, but I didn't expect it. What I was worried about happened today, good brother Xu, listen to my sister, you have the best way, you see what to do.

Chen Xu lifted Mount Tai like a teacup, and naturally he would not let go of this opportunity in front of him.

"Good sister, take your time."

The patriarch re-seated, and Chen Xu raised his wine glass to toast.

"Just now from your list of patriarchs, I saw that your ancestors had inherited the family style and adhered to the virtues of virtue, which is really the reason why it is a cohesive and centripetal clan, no wonder I have seen along the way, the descendants of the Huang family are scattered all over the place, but they can still vigorously support and care about the development of Huangjiawan, and build it so prosperous."

The patriarch smiled on his face: "This is the legacy of our ancestors to leave blessings to our descendants." ”

"But there's one thing that's not beautiful."

"Ah, I don't know what's going on, I'd like to hear about it."

Wan Jiaojiao said excitedly: "What else can there be, it's the twenty-first century now, why can't the two races intermarry, isn't this delaying the happiness of young men and women who really love each other between the two races, this is the dregs left over from feudalism, and it should be eliminated." ”

As soon as Wan Jiaojiao said this, all the people around her became silent, and small voices could be heard.

The elders and the patriarch looked at each other, and the atmosphere in the hall became a little awkward.

Guan Neihe, a senior provincial political official, was the first to break this embarrassing atmosphere.

"Everyone, you're welcome, pick up vegetables, this fried parsley with ivory mussels in front of you is very delicious."

Wan Jiaojiao's cheeks were red because of excitement, and Chen Xu looked more and more coquettish.

The patriarch showed a bitter smile on his face and said, "Miss Wan is really a straightforward girl. ”

Wan Jiaojiao pouted and said, "Patriarch, did you hear what I said just now?" ”

"As the head of a clan, I uphold the tradition of the patriarchs of the past generations, and it is my bounden duty and responsibility to maintain the historical traditions set by my ancestors."

Xia Sangzhi looked at Wan Jiaojiao's performance, and Chen Xu cast an appreciative look at him and plucked up courage.

"Patriarch, as the saying goes, if it doesn't work, it will change, and if it changes, it will work, obviously the family rules set by the ancestors can no longer adapt to the development of society, and if it goes on like this, it will only affect the bottleneck of the development of the relationship between the two groups, and become a friendly exchange between the two groups of young men and women."

"The two clans do not intermarry is a family rule set by my Huang ancestor, I also know that this is too mean, but it is a rule that has been maintained for hundreds of years, there is so easy to change, I think the two girls have a heart, it is better to taste the delicious food."

Wan Jiaojiao and Xia Sangzhi saw the patriarch say this, and they didn't know what to say for a while, and the two beauties looked at Chen Xu with blank eyes.

Chen Xu is such a smart young man, especially good at observing his face, looking at the high-ranking official Guan Neihe sitting next to him, he couldn't bear to speak, and thought to himself: "Mr. Guan is a member of the Huang clan, and he has the position of vice governor of the province, if he can make a statement, it may be more weighty." ”

Chen Xu looked at Governor Guan and said, "Governor Guan, don't worry about eating, I think you have some opinions on this matter, you might as well talk about it." ”

Governor Guan put down his chopsticks and said: "I'm not right about things and people, I think the two girls are right, the world is developing, and we also need to change some concepts." ”

The patriarch looked at the Guannei River with clear eyes.

Guan Neihe said: "Patriarch and clan lords, although I am the governor, but I dare not offend you, I have today's achievements, absolutely inseparable from the help of all clansmen and clan dukes, but I may be speaking on behalf of the opinions of most of our Huang family descendants." ”

The patriarch looked at the elders on the table whispering and discussing.

"Ah, Xiaoguan, according to what you said, you have spoken out the opinions of my children and grandchildren."

Guan Neihe nodded and said: "Patriarch, your kindness to me, I Guan Neihe Center engraved it, I dare not forget, without your enthusiastic help for me to go to school, I will not be what I am now, you often tell me in private, as an official, to think of the people, to the people's worries as a heart, what I said, should represent the hearts of most of my Huang family." ”

The patriarch looked a little excited and stood up from his position.

"Fellow villagers, fellow relatives, please put down the dishes and chopsticks in your hands and listen to me, the habit of intermarriage between the two ethnic groups was originally a family rule set by my ancestors of the Huang family, but in modern society, with the frequent exchanges in various places, it has become more and more a shackle that restricts the normal interaction between young men and women of our two ethnic groups and the pursuit of happiness, and now the elites and intellectuals of the whole clan at home and abroad are gathered together, I hope that everyone starts from the heart, and thinks that if you want to abolish this family rule that has lasted for thousands of years, please raise your hand."

Many of the people were excited, and they stood up and shouted: "The tradition of non-intermarriage between the two tribes should be abolished, and we must not hinder the happiness of our children." ”

At the ancestral hall, the descendants of the Huang clan raised their hands in unison, and after a vote, the individuals who agreed to abolish the custom of non-intermarriage between the two clans won overwhelmingly.

Huang Sisi came to the patriarch and knelt down suddenly.

The patriarch hurriedly helped her up and said, "Don't be a child, get up quickly, do you have anything to say when you get up?" ”

Huang Sisi said: "Patriarch, I kneel to you, I am a respected elder among our Huang clan, and I have something to ask for. ”

"What's the matter, kid."

"Huang Qianqian is my sister, my sister and the people surnamed Wu really love each other and find their own happiness, a woman can do this, it is her greatest happiness, but she violated the clan rules, according to the clan rules, she will be expelled from the clan, parents and daughters can't recognize each other, which is equivalent to breaking up our originally happy family, and asking the patriarch to take back his life."

With tears in his eyes, the patriarch solemnly announced after the resolution of the eight elders: "Starting today, I officially announce the abolition of the custom of my Huang clan and the descendants of the Wu surname on the prohibition of intermarriage between the two clans, and from now on, the young people of the two clans can pursue their own happiness." ”

In the ancestral hall, more than 1,000 descendants of the Huang family all applauded warmly, and the applause lasted for about two minutes.

The patriarch sat down, but his eyebrows were condensed, and he looked worried.

Chen Xu said, "Patriarch, do you have any concerns? ”

"The rules of the two clans, we just hold a unilateral opinion, if the people surnamed Wu still adhere to the previous practice, I think, we have lost face and can't change anything."

"yes, how did I forget."

"It seems that my good brother Xu is so happy all of a sudden."

Chen Xu smiled happily: "Patriarch, please rest assured, the nobles can change the things, and the clan surnamed Wu will definitely be able to change, you can leave the rest to me." ”

Wan Jiaojiao and Xia Sangzhi looked at Chen Xu with great reverence, and were impressed by his bearing of holding Mount Tai like a teacup, they didn't expect that he could make the patriarch abolish the stubbornness that had lasted for thousands of years with just a few words.

Huang Liangfa walked over and toasted to Chen Xu, the patriarch, and Guan Neihe, and said, "I don't know, Mr. Chen has any way." ”

Chen Xu borrowed the donkey from the slope and said: "Patriarch and elders, I dare to ask, you don't know if you have thought about improving the relationship between the two clans. ”

The patriarchs and elders were clear.

"We have all agreed to abolish the custom of not intermarrying between the two clans, why don't we want to reconcile with the Wu clan and improve relations."

The patriarch said: "To tell the truth, it's not that I am an unfilial descendant, speaking from my heart, although my Huangtang ancestor Gong received and helped Wu Gong back then, but he should not be impulsive in his heart, and under the circumstances at that time, he slandered and spread rumors about Wu Gong and his wife Pan for no reason, these two noble people who love and respect each other, if the two clans can be reconciled, we are willing to go to their grave on behalf of the descendants of Huang Tanggong to admit their mistakes and make compensation." ”

Chen Xu, Wan Jiaojiao, Xia Sangzhi and others were impressed by the patriarch's profound righteousness and open-mindedness, and they were particularly moved in their hearts.

"I'll take care of this, and I won't disappoint you." Chen Xu's eyes were full of determination.

Xiaowen suddenly danced and shouted: "Great, that brother and sister don't have to be wronged and cry." ”

Everyone laughed happily.
