016, into the family (below)
The ceremony of joining the clan was held in the old house in the west of Wuzhou, and the old lady wanted to stop the rumors, so she naturally wanted to do a beautiful scene, so that everyone would know.
The sky was gray, so Xianyun and Xianyu dressed neatly, got into the carriage, and hurried to the old house of the clan.
Only the elders came to the third and second rooms of the Ge family, and the elders in the clan arrived one after another, and the ceremony officially began.
"Over the years, the third brother has been in Beijing and has not been able to come back, and now that he has to come back, he naturally wants to join the clan and return to the clan, announcing the official start of the clan initiation ceremony." After the eldest lord Ge Tianyan finished speaking expressionlessly, Ge Tianxing began to enter the ancestral hall to meet the ancestors of the Ge family.
The old lady looked at it with a smile, and felt a lot of relief in her heart, even if she joined the clan, as long as there was still one day when she was there, these three rooms naturally could not be the patriarch, and after joining the clan, the distribution of this property was naturally more or less, good and bad, and she had already thought about it, the Ge family had a piece of mountainous land, and it could not grow anything all year round, and there were five hundred acres, which could just be given to the three rooms.
Xia's and the eldest lord Ge Tianyan's hearts were blocked, the two kept exchanging glances, the eldest lord obviously blamed Xia's for not doing things well, and also made the old lady unhappy, but Xia felt that the eldest lord was not considerate of her enough, and only thought that the old lady's words were right, and the atmosphere between the two instantly became stiff.
It was already an hour after the ceremony was over, the sun was hanging high, and there was finally a hint of warmth in the gloomy old house, and Xianyun stood in the sunlight in the courtyard for a long time before he noticed a trace of warmth.
"This is the property given to you by the clan, and a part of the silver must be handed over every year as the public money of the clan, these 500 acres of fertile land and a Zhuangzi are now recorded under the three rooms, and in the future, you must win glory for the Ge family and abide by the family motto of the Ge family." The second uncle in the clan squinted his eyes slightly and said solemnly, and took out a copy of Tian Gong and the house deed to Ge Tianxing, and the old lady smiled even more when she saw it.
Ge Tianxing took it obediently, a smile flashed in the corner of his eyes, Xian Yun thought that he had made a mistake, and after looking carefully, Ge Tianxing returned to a serious face.
Then Ge Tianxing stayed to eat with the clansmen, and the old lady returned to Ge Mansion with her family, gathered all the female dependents and children in the third room, had a family banquet together, and took the opportunity to introduce Xianyun and Xianyu to everyone.
On weekdays, there is no official entry into the clan, and the girls in the other two rooms dare not communicate openly, even if they want to make friends, they can only communicate secretly.
Xianyun has seen the big room and the second room, but Xianyu doesn't know it, at the family banquet, Xia's kind pull Xianyu to speak, and introduce them one by one.
Pointing to the Li family in the second room, he said, "This is the second aunt." ”
Xian Yu called the second aunt, and Li nodded with a smile in response.
Then he introduced the girls and gentlemen in the family, the eldest girl Ge Zhiyi was dressed in a big red peony flower gown, a goose-yellow skirt, and a white fox fur cloak with a collar, and looked at Xianyun with a smile and her eyes were very inquisitive and meaningful.
The second girl, Ge Zhilan and Ge Zhixing, both looked at each other shyly and smiled, when Xianyun just came back, the second girl gave her some tea as a gesture of goodwill, the clothes on the two were plain, and the jewelry was very simple, not as beautiful as the eldest girl.
The second master doesn't know how to do business, some of the shops in his hands don't make a lot of money, and the civil and military are useless, and the second room in the previous life was very tight, and he was suppressed by the big house everywhere, and the same is true in this life.
After the meal, the old lady Lai Yangyang, said in a slow tone: "The third daughter-in-law doesn't know when the illness will be cured, I think I need to find more doctors to take a look, eldest daughter-in-law, you hurry up Zhang Luo Zhangluo, and this Aunt Zhao's child will be raised by Aunt Qian first, bury Aunt Zhao well, give her family some compassion, and finally open up branches and leaves for my Ge family." ”
Aunt Xue and Aunt Qian were grounded, so naturally they couldn't participate in such a family banquet without the permission of the old lady.
The corners of Xia's eyes were picked, and no matter how reluctant he was, he nodded with a smile on his face.
The old lady then smiled and said: "In the future, it will be a family, and the sisters will also come and go, if there are any difficulties between the sisters, help each other, and look, in a blink of an eye, the grandchildren are so old, and they have reached the age of marriage." ”
"Look, our eldest girl is blushing, isn't it a son-in-law, tell your aunt, your aunt will tell you a matchmaker, today is really stained with the light of the old lady, the old lady is blessed, the girls are blessed." Li smiled and touted, the old lady listened to it happily, and she didn't care at all that Li alluded to the big girl just now.
The most valuable thing for a girl in the boudoir is her reputation, and she secretly has someone she likes, which is not a glorious thing, but if she is still secretly selfish for life, then she has no morality, and her reputation will be ruined, and it will affect the reputation of other girls in the clan.
The eldest girl's face changed greatly, she secretly looked at the old lady, and found that the other party was smiling, and she didn't care at all, and then looked at Xianyun, and saw that Xianyun was also catering to Li's words, and said a few words.
The relationship between the big room and the second room is not as harmonious as it seems, and Xianyu and Xianyun look at each other and smile.
"My old bones, where is there any blessing, it is to enjoy the blessings of children and grandchildren, in a few days it is the chastity archway to hold a ceremony, you go to see, but also learn the rules, so as not to be ridiculed by the husband's family in the future." The place where the chastity archway ceremony was held was the Qingshi Nunnery where Xianyun had stayed before, and it was said that it was a chastity archway ceremony, but in fact, it was sent to the widow to enter the Qingshi Nunnery, and the rest of her life was locked in it.
The old lady is going to let them learn the rules, it seems that Li's words just now, she listened to it, but she didn't break the answer, now hint at it, let everyone have a number in their hearts, don't do anything that damages the reputation of the Ge family, on the other hand, after the ceremony, there is a Baishou Festival, in fact, it is a disguised selection of daughters-in-law, which is also known after personal experience in the previous life, Xianyun is the first time he met that day and Xia Ling, and the Baishou Festival will be all female dependents, when he appeared, it will not be so coincidental, in the previous life, he was carried away by love, Didn't think about it at all.
After hearing this, the girls nodded their heads again and again, and when Xian Yu lowered her head, she pulled Xian Yun's clothes, looked in the direction of Xian Yu's finger, and saw that the eldest girl's cheeks were slightly peach, and the corners of her eyes were full of smiles.
Li kept saying nice things, coaxing the old lady very happy, Xia said very little, occasionally echoed a few words, the girls all accompanied to talk, the elders asked, respectfully answered, in fact, they just listened.
The old lady was in a good mood, and chatted until three o'clock before going to bed, and then everyone was free and came out.
Slim whispered while pulling Slim Cloud, walking slowly, and Slim Whisper's laughter was particularly prominent in the quiet night.
"Third sister, fifth sister, you are here for the first time, you are not familiar with this place, this is also the first time I have heard of it, tomorrow I will take you around the garden, and I am also familiar with the way, by the way, I will tell you interesting things about the Hundred Shou Festival, but if the third sister goes, it will really be suffocated." Ge Zhiyi pursed her lips and smiled, covering her cherry mouth with a handkerchief.
Ge Zhiyi suddenly stopped, turned around and laughed, the two Xianyun sisters were stunned, and then Xian Yu looked at Ge Zhiyi in wonder.
"Because the requirements are strict, a toothy smile like the third sister is not allowed, isn't it, fifth sister?" Instead, he asked Xiang Xianyun.
What does this big girl mean? Xian Yun secretly guessed, and then frowned helplessly: "Indeed, I studied there before, and I was indeed taught like this, the eldest sister is really powerful, if those masters can meet a student like the eldest sister, they will definitely have to compete!" "The people who went to Qingshian to be taught were women with a bad reputation, and Xianyun was sent by the old lady because her reputation in the capital was not very good.
Ge Zhiyi hinted that Xianyun's upbringing was not good, and Xianyun also directly refuted the past, there was something in this, the eldest girl thought deeply, and naturally thought that Xianyun knew something, this big girl had always been afraid that Xianyun knew about her sneaking out, and she had been guarding against it and tempting, and every time she was blocked back by Xianyun as if it were air.
If she really responded to her invitation, I'm afraid she won't stop tomorrow if she doesn't ask one or two, this big girl is not a trouble-free, she married Xia Lingqi as a concubine in her previous life, and when she was still in poor health, the old lady kindly chose a sister from the Ge family, could it be that she secretly colluded with Xia Lingqi early?
Xianyun thought for a while and smiled: "Eldest sister, my mother's health has been getting worse and worse recently, and my grandmother finally lifted my grounding, let me take good care of my mother, and when my mother is well, I will trouble the eldest sister again, don't trouble our sisters when the time comes." ”
On the grounds of filial piety, Ge Zhiyi was not easy to refute, and calmly showed a concerned look on his face, and asked: "The third aunt's body is important, and the sisters are welcome when they come, they are all a family." ”
Then Xianyun said a few more pleasantries, then left and went back to their respective rooms.
