On the ninth day of the lunar month, the sky was just bright, Daddy Liu came to the ancient willow with a firecracker, hung the firecracker on the branch and put it up, the crackling firecracker sound resounded through Shuangliu Village, the huge village suddenly became lively, Zhang Shibao is both Renzhang's brother-in-law and Zhang Yan's cousin, Zhang Yan's marriage is naturally very attentive, hearing the sound of firecrackers, he quickly got up and came to the front yard, his wife Wang Huilan is helping Zhang Yan dress up, grandpa Zhang Lu is standing outside the gate with a cane and looking in the direction of Guliu,

"Grandpa, it's too cold, you better go back to the house and sit." Shibao helped Zhang Lu turn around and go back to the house.

"Shibao, today you and Huilan went to the Liu family's compound for a banquet on behalf of our old Zhang family, and you are the honored guests, so you must pay attention to your speech and demeanor. Although you and Daddy Liu are brothers-in-law, but they haven't moved around for so many years, even the wedding between you and Huilan that year, Daddy Liu didn't participate, fortunately, Huilan has been in close contact with Daddy Liu over the years, in the eyes of outsiders, although the two families of Liu and Zhang do not get along with each other but have nepotism, today Zhang Yan and Renzhang are about to get married, and the two families of Liu and Zhang are good for Qin and Jin, which is a substantial improvement over you and Huilan's marriage, Zhang Yan married into the Liu family compound, and it is very likely that she will be the same as Huilan, and become the pearl of Daddy Liu's palm. even became the hostess of the Liu family compound in one fell swoop, think about it, who can Daddy Liu rely on in the Liu family compound? Liu Zhongzhang, as the eldest son and eldest grandson, was almost expelled from the Liu family's compound by Father Liu because of Huilan's affairs, and he was basically an invalid; Liu Yizhang is the most talented, and he is also the most true inheritance of Daddy Liu, but his ambition is not in Shuangliu Village, or even in Huang County, he will definitely soar in the future, and he will definitely not return to the Liu family compound; The only thing left is Renzhang, he is more than successful, not aggressive, and cowardly, very similar to his uncle Liu Wenzheng, he can't support this piece of the Liu family compound, and Zhang Yan can just make up for these shortcomings of Renzhang, if I am Daddy Liu, I will not hesitate to support Zhang Yan, as Zhang Yan's cousin, no matter what you say or do, you must have a heart with Zhang Yan, you remember, with Zhang Yan, is with Daddy Liu, that is, with the courtyard of the Liu family, you must not make the mistake of talking nonsense in Wang Shouwu's house last time. You are different from Huilan, she has no scruples about what she says or does in the Liu family compound, everyone knows that Daddy Liu has always pampered her as a pearl in the palm of her hand, Shibao, you have been obedient to Huilan all these years, the better you are to Huilan, Daddy Liu will look down on you, don't talk too much at noon, don't feel that you are the leader of Huang County, as if you are the leader of Huang County, I told you that even the county magistrate Liu Kuizhang is like dung in the eyes of Daddy Liu, Daddy Liu is deeply rooted in Shuangliu Village, The heritage of the Liu family compound is more ancient than that ancient willow, you will always have to be a man with your tail in front of Daddy Liu, Shibao, grandpa is a half-buried person, it is already the last year of the wind and candle, Shuangliu Village is now Liu Wenhua is two or three years older than me, I can tell you now, I have never had the slightest gap with the Liu family compound, let alone any deep hatred, the reason why the Liu and Zhang families have caused the situation of old and dead not getting along is caused by a lot of inexpressible emotional entanglements, but since the moment Daddy Liu agreed to the marriage of Renzhang and Zhang Yan, These emotional entanglements have disappeared, and Daddy Liu has completely let go of the grievances between the two Liu and Zhang families, which means that the two Liu and Zhang families are only one step away from marriage to rejoining forces, and they will soon be reconciled as before. ”

"Grandpa, I understand what you mean, I have been a childhood sweetheart with Liu Muyan in the Liu family compound since I was a child, although I failed to become a revolutionary couple by mistake, but I have always had a good impression of the Liu family compound, especially for Daddy Liu, I respect him from the bottom of my heart, although he is not a member of the Communist Party, but his excellent qualities are completely comparable to a Communist, not to mention, just take this time he jumped into the ice cave to save Liu Wenxi, isn't it the character that we Communists pursue? Last time I was at Wang Shouwu's house, I really shouldn't have said those unabashed nonsense, it was all because of my selfishness that I almost made a big mistake, and as soon as the words came out, I regretted it. In fact, he has been secretly helping the rich man Liu Wenhua, and the wealth of the Liu family compound before liberation is not inferior to that of the Liu house, these are well-known things, can paper wrap the fire? I'm worried that the Liu family's compound will repeat the mistakes of the Liu Mansion in the future, so won't Zhang Yan be implicated like my aunt Sanyan? ”

"Shibao, grandpa's biggest concern is that you are too close to politics and follow the trend. Grandpa doesn't understand politics, but I understand people's hearts, I know very well, it was you who secretly helped Liu Kuizhang to force Sanyan to leave Liu Wenhua and enter the county, I know that you are not doing this entirely to please Liu Kuizhang, you are also thinking about your aunt Sanyan, New China has just been established, the political struggle is very cruel, if Sanyan still follows Liu Wenhua, she will inevitably wear the hat of the landlord's wife, and life in Shuangliu Village will not be easy, in fact, you are doing the wrong thing with good intentions, you underestimated the courage and energy of Daddy Liu, think about it, Except for the two times when Liu Wenhua was dragged to the county seat to accept criticism, Daddy Liu's whip is beyond his control, who dares to fight Liu Wenhua in Shuangliu Village and even Liushui Township? Daddy Liu also drew a line with Liu Wenhua on the surface, but in fact, in order to better protect Liu Wenhua's family, the facts also prove that Daddy Liu's love for Shangzhang is far better than my grandfather many times, I secretly asked Zhang Yan to send some flour to Liu's house several times, but every time I was thrown into the street by Shangzhang, why is this? Isn't it because Shang Zhang treats your cousin as an enemy? I've told you many times, the county magistrate is not as good as the current management, no matter how high you climb, you have to fall back to the roots, people like Liu Kuizhang, the final fate is no different from dung, no one in Shuangliu Village will remember him because he was the county magistrate, but Daddy Liu is different, although he is only a village head, the lowest level of administrative officials, but the people of Shuangliu Village, including me, are grateful to him, you see that he set off firecrackers on the ancient willow in the morning, and the whole village immediately took action, I asked Huilan to send all the flour at home to the Liu family compound the day before yesterday, I heard Huilan say that there were as many as forty-eight tables of the wedding banquet organized by the Liu family compound this time, that was more than 400 people, and they were also the descendants of the Liu family compound, Liu Zhongzhang only set up a total of six tables when he got married, Liu Zhongzhang is the eldest son and eldest grandson of the Liu family compound, and it was useless not to get the favor of Liu's father, who let him marry Huilan without knowing the height of the sky? This time, Daddy Liu did his best to marry Zhang Yan, this is to give our old Zhang family a big face, so I am sure that it is a matter of time before Zhang Yan is in charge of the Liu family compound, the key is that our old Zhang family can raise their eyebrows in Shuangliu Village from now on, and those rumors in the past will also be self-defeating, these days I feel it, who sees me in the village is respectful, this is the reality! ”

"Grandpa, what you taught me is that I really thought too simple about my aunt Sanyan, I knew that Daddy Liu had the ability to protect Liu Wenhua, I would never get my aunt to the city, I felt that Liu Wenhua was over seventy years old, in his old age, poor, and unable to take care of his aunt and Shang Zhang, plus I have been working by Liu Kuizhang's side all these years, knowing that he has a deep affection for my aunt, in order to get my aunt, he and his original wife are divorced, and my aunt is now working in the county cultural center, I can see that she doesn't have much affection for Liu Wenhua and Liu Kuizhang, just like you said, what she can't let go of is Shang Zhang, and she is willing to commit to Liu Kuizhang for Shang Zhang not to be persecuted. Grandpa, you're right, Liu Kuizhang didn't receive Daddy Liu's wedding card this time, he was so angry that he really wanted to participate in the wedding banquet in the Liu family compound, and wanted to send his special car to the Liu family compound to pick up relatives, now it looks like Daddy Liu really didn't take Liu Kuizhang in his eyes. ”

"Shibao, Zhang Yan is much smarter than you in this regard, she has seen the profound heritage of the Liu family compound, Liu Huayong and Liu Yanzu needless to say, they are all big names in history. Speaking of Daddy Liu, he began to lead a group of people to run boats since he was eighteen years old, smuggling all kinds of war materials, and the wealth he amassed was not less than Liu Wenhua, but he was much more low-key than Liu Wenhua, many people didn't know the mystery, and thought that he ran the boat to go to sea to fish, these wealth were earned by Daddy Liu's daring to take risks, not only that, Daddy Liu has been very bold and righteous since he was a child, and in the years of running the boat, he made friends ****, unfathomable, for a simple example, Jiang Fengyi, deputy secretary of the Huangxian County Party Committee and head of the Armed Forces Department, was the first to follow Daddy Liu's boat, and was Daddy Liu's brother in life and death, including the Bohai detachment led by Wang Bingqian and Liu Kuizhang, who had been secretly funded by Daddy Liu many times, you say, who dared to touch him in Huangxian County? How could he repeat Liu Wenhua's mistakes? Compared with the heritage of the Liu family's compound, the difference between cloud and mud is not the same, so your worries are unfounded! ”
