Only then did the patriarch relax and say, "It's pretty much the same! You bring the chess, let's have a few games! ”

Zhao Yue shook his head at Federo and motioned for him to prepare, "Okay, I'm about to learn your old tricks!" ”

The two grandchildren played a few games of chess, and each time the patriarch narrowly won, which made the patriarch very happy, the wine and food were on the table, and he had to pull Zhao Yue to play a few more games. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Uncle, let's drink first, and then go down after drinking!" Zhao Yue hurriedly said that he didn't want to accompany this old man for a whole day of chess, and he had to go to great lengths to make him win every game very thrilling.

The patriarch reluctantly put down the chess pieces, and sat down on the banquet with the support of Zhao Yue, the two grandfathers and grandsons take a sip, I will drink a glass, and after a few glasses of wine, the patriarch spoke: "Yue, do you know how long your uncle is this year?" ”

Zhao Yue calculated: "You are always born in the fourth year of the Republic of China, oops, you are just 100 years old this year!" It's not far off! This is a big deal, and it must be done in a big way."

The patriarch was very satisfied with Zhao Yue's performance, and said with satisfaction: "Well, even if you kid still has a heart, but now those juniors are losing money, and the village is building a lot of construction, and the big office will delay their work and delay them to make money!" Will it make them complain? ”

It turned out to be this, I said why is it so angry! Zhao Yue thought about it and said: "Don't worry about this matter, leave it to me!" You are 100 years old, this is auspicious, it is a good omen! Who dares to complain? ”

He touched his head and said: "You see if this will work, let us juniors who have a little money make up some money to hold a three-day running water banquet, and secondly, invite a few troupes to sing for three days, and then invite people from the county cinema to come and show a few days of movies, in short, beat gongs and drums, and make your birthday lively, so that people from all over the country know that our village has a hundred-year-old old birthday star!" In addition, if you want to sing the hall, there is no place to do it, I think it is better to take advantage of your birthday, the ancestral hall of the clan is also repaired by the way, this has not been repaired for decades, and there are no people in it, and the ancestors still don't scold us for being unfilial? ”

The patriarch was very happy to hear Zhao Yue's words, and said: "Yue, you have a heart, but this matter of cultivating the ancestral hall of the temple can be repaired without saying that it can be repaired, and it can't be done without money."

Zhao Yue nodded and said: "You can rest assured, I will pay for the cultivation of the temple, I will discuss this matter with Uncle Decai, in short, we must do this thing to your satisfaction, and everyone is satisfied!" I am afraid that the parents and officials in the town and county will come down to congratulate you on your birthday, and you don't want to fall down when you are excited, that's not good, we juniors don't agree! ”

"Hahaha, you kid, your uncle and I have also seen the world and seen the big officials, this little battle is not difficult for your uncle, I want to be your uncle and I back then" The patriarch was about to talk about his scenery history, Zhao Yue immediately picked up the wine glass and said: "Come, come, come!" Uncle, let's have a toast! ”

Zhao Yue has listened to this uncle talk about how he was back then, and now he doesn't know how many times he has heard it, and now when he hears the old man talk about this, he wants to run, but he can't run, so he has to plug the old man's mouth with wine.

The old man drank a glass of wine, put down the wine glass and said: "Yue, uncle has thought about it, the money for the ancestral hall can't be just let you go out, you are the descendant of the Zhao family?" Those little rabbit cubs are not the descendants of the Zhao family? This matter, let's sum it up! Besides, when the time comes, you pay for the ancestral hall, and those rabbit cubs are not happy, and ask you why you will pay for it alone, don't you treat them as the Zhao family? What did you say then? So, let's discuss again, let them pay if they are willing to pay, and contribute if they don't have money, so that no one will gossip! ”

Zhao Yue listened to the old man's words, gave a thumbs up and blurted out: "It's still your old scheming, old and scheming!" As soon as he finished speaking, he received a shiver on his head.

"How do you speak? Just praised you twice, and you don't have a door in your mouth? The old man blew his beard and glared at him.

Zhao Yue hurriedly smiled and said: "You see that I talk nonsense as soon as I drink too much, how can you say that you are old and slippery, in this way, I will punish myself with a cup, a penalty, hehe!" After saying that, he quickly poured a glass of wine into his mouth.

When Zhao Yue was embarrassed, Anne came back from outside with her two children, still carrying a large bag, "Ancestor, are you here?" You see we've bought a lot of things! Zhao Ding pulled his sister Zhao Xiang and ran in from outside and shouted, and immediately threw himself into the arms of the old man.

"Good, good, good!" The old man showed a kind smile on his face, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he hugged Zhao Ding, "Hey, you little guy is really heavy, the old ancestor can't hold you, tell the old ancestor where you all went to play today?" ”

The old man really likes these two children, usually brings them anything delicious to eat, and often takes them outside to play, and is very affectionate with them.

Zhao Ding said loudly: "Today we went to the market with my mother, there are a lot of fun things!" ”

At this time, Zhao Xiang also stretched out his hand and shouted: "Ancestor, I want to hug too!" ”

Zhao Yue immediately stepped forward and hugged Zhao Xiang over and said, "The ancestor is old, he can't hold the two of you, Dad hugs you!" ”

Anne came in with a large bag and greeted her, "Uncle, you're here!" I just bought two old hens, stew one for you to replenish your body."

The old man nodded and said, "Well, the old hen should be kept for yourself, this table of dishes is enough!" ”

When Zhao Yue wanted to marry Annie, almost everyone in the Zhao family was very happy, but the patriarch uncle was against it, in his words, are all the women here dead? You want to marry a foreign woman as a wife? Later, many people went to intercede, and he reluctantly agreed, Zhao Yue and Anne went to give him tea after they got married, he was still lukewarm, and he hardly talked to Anne until Anne gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix twins to Zhao Yue, and he had a good face for Anne.

Don't treat the patriarch as a cadre! Until now, many places in China are still clan societies, the power of the patriarch is very large, generally by the most prestigious old people, some villages are all the same surname, a descendant of an ancestor, sometimes the police go to these villages to handle cases, these people do not buy it at all, directly block the police at the entrance of the village and do not let them in, and some even directly confront the police to prevent them from arresting people. As long as the patriarch gives an order, they dare to act against the political axe, so if they want to exercise their rights in these places, they must also get the cooperation of the patriarch.

After the old man finished speaking, he ignored Anne and asked Zhao Ding: "Zhao Ding, the old ancestor is old, when you grow up, if the old ancestor is not dead, will you support the old ancestor?" ”

Who knew that Zhao Ding shook his head and said, "No!" ”

"Why?"

"Because I'm going to save money to marry a wife!" Zhao Ding is serious.

The old man was stunned: "Ugh! Hahahaha, well, you want to marry a wife before you are three years old! That's a lot better than your dad! Your dad knew how to play with mud all day long when he was your age."

Zhao Ding's words not only made the old man laugh, but even Zhao Yue and Anne were also amused, this is really childish words!

Zhao Xiang in Zhao Yue's arms shouted: "My brother is not ashamed, so he wants to marry a wife!" ”

"How do you want to marry a wife? Dad married mom as a wife, uncle married aunt as a wife, men have to marry wives, so I have to marry a wife too! Zhao Ding shouted, he actually knew how to give an example.

His shout made everyone in the room laugh so much that the old man was the happiest, and said yes straight away. Zhao Ding pulled the old man's beard and asked, "Ancestor, why is your beard so white, but Dad's beard so black?" ”

"Because the older the person, the whiter the beard, and when your father reaches the age of the ancestor, the beard will also be white, and you will grow a beard when you grow up" The old man is very happy to talk to the children, to talk to other people, and others do not want to listen.

Zhao Yue smiled and said to Annie: "Take the children away, so Uncle Zi can't drink!" ”

After Anne took the two children away, Zhao Yue put a few pieces of pork kidney flowers in the old man's bowl and said: "Come, uncle, you are so old, it is really rare for your teeth to be so good, eat more waist flowers, and you are strong!" ”

The old man said proudly: "That's it, don't look at your uncle, I'm a hundred years old, I can eat, drink, sleep, and do some work!" ”

"Can you tell us the secret of your longevity?" Zhao Yue asked pretending to be surprised.

The old man shook his head and said, "What's the secret!" But when you ask, I can really say something! ”

"Oh, tell me!" Zhao Yue hurriedly asked.

The old man took a sip of his wine glass, and then said: "This, you can't do everything too much, such as too tired from work, too much to eat, not too drunk to drink, not too much to smoke, not too long to sleep, not too long to rest, not too much to have sex, that's all, when I was eighty years old, other old guys either fell into the ground or fell on the bed and couldn't get up, I just thought, why am I still alive?" Later, as soon as I summed it up, I came to this conclusion, you see that I am still free of illness and disaster! ”

Zhao Yue clapped his hands and said, "Your old man summed it up incisively!" Exactly! ”

In fact, the living habits of the elderly are just in line with the principles of heaven, balance! All actions are not biased, neither heavy nor light, neither long nor short.

After drinking and drinking, the old man got up to say goodbye, Zhao Yue hurriedly walked over to help him up, who knew that the old man shook him off and said: "I'm not drunk yet, I don't need your help!" By the way, let's say that the good thing is settled! ”

Zhao Yue nodded and said: "Of course, since it is said that it is good, it must not be reversed, and the matter will be left to me!" ”

The old man let out a "grace", and then walked unhurriedly on crutches.
