The word "not enough success, more than failure" is not enough to describe Shen Yuan's stupidity, which is a scourge for the Shen family.

However, after the separation, Shen Yuan couldn't affect the clansmen no matter how outrageous he was, and only Shen Jin in the fourth room was harmed.

Shen Rui didn't have much to say about solving this scourge, so he only nodded when he heard this: "Sooner or later, this matter will have to be said in the clan." After the division of the sect, Sifang should be the head of Brother Jin, and let's see him deal with it. ”

There is a champion son, the Shen family has to take care of the jade bottle when fighting mice, it is impossible to deal with Shen Yuan too harshly, but the seven rooms and eight rooms have always been the poorest, and the three rooms and nine rooms are greedy for money, so it is impossible to take the opportunity to ask for some compensation.

Although Shen Yuan actually returned to Songjiang without any cages, he loves face the most, and he is hard in front of people, except for a few well-informed rooms, other clansmen may not know that he was lost by the Yan family's means and lost his official fortune, I am afraid that he can be a scholar in the rich place in Yangzhou, I don't know how much greed goes, and this compensation is more and more indispensable.

In fact, where is there any surplus wealth in the fourth room, and the expenses at home are still those produced in Shen Jin's name.

Originally, the property left by the Sun family to Shen Jin was in the hands of Shen Yuan, and it has also been defeated over the years, because there is no serious owner in the four rooms in the chaos, they are all several old and frail house slaves watching the house, the treasury has been smashed, and even most of Xiao He's dowry has been taken, I don't know what Shen Jin can take out to compensate for those rooms.

Shen Rui sneered at the corner of his mouth, Shen Yuan, a phoenix man, went straight into the eyes of money, but he lost the dowry of the original partner and the dowry of the stepfamily, and he deserved to have no money.

In addition to these rooms, the Zongfang lost the eldest grandson and injured the second son, and the sixth room lost the bride and injured Shen Rong, it was not just a matter of money.

And Wufang was also affected a lot, Shen Qi was disabled, his wife and children were missing, Shen Hong was also in a hurry for his son to run around in the middle of summer, his condition worsened and even died, Wufang had already hated Shen Yuan to the bones, and it was already kind not to be angry with Shen Jin and Shen Rui.

However, everyone wants to be the patriarch of the fifth room......

When Shen Li's gaze turned to the three brothers in the fifth room, before Shen Ying could speak, Shen Qi had already said with a cold face: "Since he has violated the clan rules, he will be dealt with according to the clan rules." ”

Shen Ying listened to what her brother said bluntly, although she also hated Shen Yuan and wished that he would die quickly, but in front of Shen Rui, this was Shen Rui's father, so she wanted to make up for it.

Shen Li smiled approvingly, nodded and said, "For the head of a clan, the important thing is the word impartiality." And the most difficult thing about this impartiality is not that the brother of the house is not covered up for evil, but if the house suffers a loss, whether to take into account the identity of the patriarch and the dignity and false name and avoid or even retreat! You must know that sometimes when you retreat, he takes it for granted, but he has to make an inch! Second Brother Qi is upright and square, and he will be able to be impartial. ”

In order to help Shen Rui solve the troubles, Shen Lidu originally intended to push it here and solve Shen Yuan's problem as soon as possible. has no virtue and no character, it is Shen Yuan, but the people of the world attach importance to the inheritance of blood, and Shen Yuan's reputation is rotten, which will also make people question the character and upbringing of Shen Rui and Shen Jin's brothers.

Shen Qi knew that Shen Li was also using this matter as a whetstone for his patriarch's path, and he was grateful, so he solemnly stood up and said, "Brother of the six clans, rest assured, my brother will do his best to act impartially, and not let the people of the clan suffer losses!" ”

Shen Ying and Shen Quan also thanked each other, and Shen Li waved his hand again and again, "My own brother, what is the outside world?" ”

Speaking of clan rules, although the current clan is not stronger than the Wei and Jin Dynasty gate lords, the major families also have family law and clan rules, and in some places there are many types of family law, and the rigor is not inferior to the national law, and in some places, the patriarchal law is more effective than the national law.

Shen Yuan did not violate the law of the country, but he tarnished the name of the Shen family and caused trouble to the clansmen, according to the rules of the Shen family, he was punished with 30 to 50 rods, stopped from rice for 1 to 10 years, and removed from the clan after being punished with a rod.

Stopping the gizzard means that after worshipping the ancestors, it is not allowed to eat the food with the blessings of the ancestors, and stopping the rice is to stop the annual family property dividends.

Stopping the rice is a very serious punishment for the clansmen with a bad family, but it is nothing for the fourth room.

Because of the two brothers Shen Jin and Shen Rui, it is impossible to remove the clan, but it is too cheap to play the board and stop the rice.

Shen Quandao: "If you want to punish Uncle Yuan for losing money, I am afraid that the land and property that are divided into four houses will be compensated." ”

This made Shen Yuan more uncomfortable than playing the board, but it also damaged Shen Jin's interests. Shen Jin is now the only son of Sifang, and the land divided by Sifang will be Shen Jin's property in the future, but this is embarrassing.

Shen Ying pondered for a moment and said slowly: "There is another one that can lock the ancestral hall if it involves the clansmen...... Brother Jin is afraid that he is also very willing. ”

This lock shrine is similar to the prison of the national law, the women in the clan make mistakes and send them to the nunnery, the men are confined to the ancestral hall, coarse tea and light rice are bleak, and some families will also stipulate that they kneel on the ancestral tablet every day and recite the clan rules several times. This detention period is also based on the crime, ranging from 10 days, dozens of days, or even more than 10 years.

On the government side, it will not meddle in this kind of local clan affairs.

When everyone thought of this, they all nodded silently.

Shen Jin is grounded with Shen Yuan now, but he will soon return to Beijing. When the time comes, it will be a dilemma, leaving such a pit son's father in Songjiang, no one can hold him hostage, and there will be trouble; And it is also troublesome to take Shangjing, father and son, there is no reason for a son to forcibly control his father, and such a father is not a son who can control it.

There are many nobles in Beijing, and the eyes of the imperial history are bright and focused on people's mistakes, in case Shen Yuan causes a bigger disaster, it will be impossible to clean up.

And such a dilemma may be solved by such a family rule.

However, in this matter, Shen Jin is one hundred and eighty willing, and he can't take the initiative to mention a word, otherwise it will be "big unfilial piety".

This matter can only be done by the patriarch and punished according to the clan rules, so that Shen Jin's reputation can be flawless.

Shen Qi was also transparent, and when he thought of this, he said slowly: "It's nothing more than acting according to the rules." ”

The verdict is like this, after the sentence is over, he will be locked up in the ancestral hall, how can he clean up Shen Yuan? Some are full of food and clothing, but they don't beat or scold, but they make people feel painful. For example, kneeling for four hours a day.

The five-room brothers exchanged glances, tacitly understood each other, and the depression in their chests dispersed a lot.

No matter how angry he is with the fourth room, Shen Jin is not wrong, he has been close to the fifth room over the years, and he is the champion of the new department, in the future, the Shen family should still form a group to take care of each other in the officialdom, and now pulling Shen Jin is also leaving a way for Shen Ying in the future.

Shen Li also put his mind at ease, Shen Rui can worry about it here.

*

The Shen family has four rooms and a study.

When everyone in the fifth room was discussing how to deal with Shen Yuan, Shen Yuan was jumping to scold his son in the fourth room.

"You bastard! Dividing such a big matter, you dare to make a decision if you don't have a little rabbit cub with no hair? I haven't asked you, Lao Tzu! Shen Yuan had a pair of red eyes and roared viciously: "The sect is not the patriarch, the second room has rolled into Beijing, and the third room is evil, this patriarch should be the fourth room!" I'm supposed to be the one who should be! You wiped out your patriarch with a word? Who promised to divide the sect?! Who promised to divide the sect?! I don't divide sects! The patriarch should have been mine! ”

Thinking of those thousands of acres of family property, Shen Yuan ate his son's heart. Treat them as his! His!

The reason why the patriarch lives a rich and decent life is because he is the patriarch, he holds the clan power, takes care of the clan property, and has both power and profit.

Shen Jin hung his head and just let him scold without saying a word.

The reason why I came to tell Shen Yuan about the division of the sect was because Shen Jin also thought of the division of the sect, but he was afraid that the clan would deal with Shen Yuan, and there would be no way to let Shen Yuan be "sick" at that time. If you want him to go to the ancestral hall, you can't help but tell him to understand first, otherwise it will be even more troublesome when the time comes.

Who knew that as soon as he opened his mouth to say the division, Shen Yuan was furious.

Tired of the family, almost brought disaster to the Shen family, and even dreamed of the patriarch?

Shen Jin couldn't help but laugh sarcastically, the one who can talk in his dreams like this, except for the innocent and romantic Lake Master in the third room, is his own father.

This one comes out one by one, the father-son relationship has long been wiped out, and all that remains is sadness and helplessness. As long as Shen Jin still wants to go on his official career, he still has to provide for this father.

Shen Jin stood far away from Shen Yuan, although he didn't look at him, the corner of his eye was also wary of him rushing over to make a move. It's not that I'm afraid of being beaten, it's just that it's inappropriate to put a slap mark on my face and go to the ancestral hall to divide the sect.

The fourth room is a big joke, and Shen Jin doesn't want to put it out to make people laugh at it.

Seeing that Shen Yuan was tired of roaring for a long time, he tilted into the chair, picked up the tea on the table and drank it all, shook his hand and smashed the tea cup to this side.

Shen Jin avoided it lightly, shook the corners of his robe splashed with broken porcelain chips, looked up at Shen Yuan, and said slowly: "The old man is not in good health, the son of Zhiqingtang, the son will live in place of his father." In the future, the master can concentrate on recuperation......"

"Fart!" Shen Yuan was so angry that he almost squirted out a mouthful of water, and the patriarch told this little beast to be gone, and he wanted to calculate his position as the son of the sect after dividing the sect, but it was the opposite!

Shen Yuan was full of anger, slapped the table, stood up, and said incoherently: "Beast! Brute! Lao Tzu is not dead yet! Vertical son dares! See if I don't kill you little brute......"

Shen Yuan was about to pounce on him with anger, but when he met Shen Jin's clear and cold gaze, his heart felt chills for no reason, his feet couldn't help but stumble, and the cruel words that came to his mouth were swallowed unconsciously.

Shen Jin gave way to the side, his eyelids didn't tremble, and he continued to say slowly: "There is one more thing, the master should also know the psychology, this time the Shen family suffered, all because of the Yan family's revenge, tracing back to the source, it was the master who handled the marriage with the Yan family inappropriately, which caused a big disaster. After the division of the clan, the lord should also take it out and talk about the violation of the clan rules. ”

Shen Yuan's eyes straightened when he heard this, he was shocked and angry, and scolded one after another: "Nonsense! Where did Lao Tzu break the clan rules? The surname Yan is all black-hearted Wang Balamb, and a mere businessman wants to find a champion to be his son-in-law, daydreaming? What does his scourge of the Shen family have to do with Lao Tzu? Climb Lao Tzu to do it! Lao Tzu called the scourge surnamed Yan in front of the officials, why didn't the clansmen help Lao Tzu find the surname Yan to settle accounts, saying that I violated the clan rules? Sling the bull! Sling the bull! ”

Scolding and scolding, Shen Yuan suddenly remembered, family affairs, where did the family affairs come from, it is not the family affairs of this little beast, which one is he for? The real bane is that this unfilial beast is.

Thinking of this, Shen Yuan came to his senses again, pointed at Shen Jin and scolded: "Beast! It's not because of you! Since you can marry the girl from the old house of the pavilion, why didn't you tell me earlier? Lao Tzu didn't offend the Yan family because of you! Ask Lao Tzu about his sin?! Ask first about the sins of your little brute! ”

The more he talked, the smoother it became, thinking of his son's identity as the champion, Shen Yuan felt a little more confident, "Yes!" First of all, ask you about the sins of this little brute! I want to see who dares to ask the champion about his sin! Who dares to ask the son-in-law of the old family of Ge ......"

Shen Jin's calm mask could no longer be tightened, and his eyes were also stained with anger, and he sharply interrupted Shen Yuan's words, "Master be cautious!" Is it to bring trouble to the family?! Can you say the same about the affairs of the old family? spread it out, angering the elder Ge, but there is good fruit to eat? How much did the master have been greedy for ink in Yangzhou as a school official? Can you afford to be angry? ”

Shen Yuanyuan saw such a son for the second time, and was also intimidated by his momentum for a while, and his voice was dumb, but he was unwilling to be suppressed by his son, and couldn't help but argue: "Obviously, you wrote back to say ......."

Shen Jin's face was like frost, and his voice was cold: "When did my son write the words of the old family of Ge?" The old man is confused, does he want his son's career to come to an end? ”

With such a stupid father out of the sky, Shen Jin's heart was already gone, and only resentment remained.

The Shen family made this fuss, where would Li Ge Lao still promise to get married?

The Shen family's lawsuit this time is related to the "dispute between Li Ge Lao and Xie Ge Lao". Although the Shen family is just a pond fish, it has also been stirred up, how can the Li family continue to bring up family affairs again.

Even if this matter is really brought up again, Shen Jin also has to take into account Shen Li's position, and it is not good to take over this family business.

Li Ge's old family only had such a meaning, and he didn't publicize it, he dispelled his thoughts, quietly, they were still strangers to each other, and they were safe. But if this stupid father goes out and talks nonsense again, and it is ruined and spread to the Li family, then his career as Shen Jin will really come to an end.

The new champion is once every three years, and it is not uncommon for the career to fail.

The thought of "killing his father" flashed in Shen Yuan's heart again, and he forcibly pressed it down.

In this world, as long as you do it, there will be traces, and it is impossible to pass through the water without a trace.

Shen Jin secretly took a deep breath and calmed down, but when he continued to speak, he still couldn't help but grit his teeth a little: "Master remember, you want to regret your marriage with the Yan family, because you want to see your son champion and first, you want to climb another high gate, because you think that what kind of eunuchs are in charge of in Beijing is better than the salt merchants, so you regret it." This matter has nothing to do with any big people, and there is nothing to do with the elders! Remember?! The last few words couldn't help but raise the voice.

Shen Yuan twitched the fat on his face, gritted his teeth and said, "Brute, I am your old man, not a three-year-old child!" You don't need to teach me yet! ”

Shen Jin said coldly: "The master had better remember it, otherwise the disaster will come out of his mouth, and his son's little Hanlin is editing, but I am afraid that I will not be able to keep myself, let alone keep the master." The old man can only ask for more blessings for himself. ”

Shen Yuan turned his head unwillingly, did not look at his son, and said to himself: "Little brute, there is no dignity, discipline Lao Tzu!" I'm going to sue you for disobedience! ”

"Very good, the lord went to sue, the son didn't do it, but he was also down-to-earth, so he didn't have to worry about the lord, and the son went home to be a farmer and concentrate on serving the lord to recuperate." Shen Jin has always had a gentle temperament, and he has never argued with others like this again, but now he is very relieved to talk cruelly to his scumbag father.

Shen Yuan didn't expect his son to reply so smoothly, and he fell down in anger for a while, except for the scolding of "little beast, little beast", he couldn't say anything else.

Shen Jin looked at the sky outside the window, and decided to end the conversation, only said: "Tomorrow will divide the sect, there are many things before and after, the lord should think about it clearly, if you violate the clan rules, you should be punished, and the clan will pay a fine of silver to compensate for those rooms, but the current situation in the family, where the silver comes from will be decided by the lord......"

"Fines? What does it have to do with Lao Tzu when they rob it, punish Lao Tzu and compensate them, why? Shen Yuan was like being beaten with chicken blood, his voice was high and sharp again, the green tendons on his neck protruded, and his eyes almost popped out.

After experiencing poverty and wealth, Shen Yuan now does not recognize his six relatives, and only feels that silver is the closest.

"Not only silver, these rooms, but also a few lives!" Shen Jin only felt physically and mentally exhausted, and was lazy to talk to Shen Yuan, and only said: "Master think about it slowly, and invite the master to the ancestral hall tomorrow ......" After that, he ignored Shen Yuan's reaction, threw his sleeves and left.

Before he was discharged from the hospital, a small servant ran back and forth, saying that Mrs. He Jiu had come to see his wife, and two carriages had entered the door. Shen Jin couldn't help frowning, feeling more and more tired, what kind of mess did Mrs. He Jiu come to make at this time?

Over there, Mrs. He Jiu had just jumped out of the carriage, and Shen Jin was about to speak, but he saw a car standing on the side behind, who was Beisheng, the fifth master of the He family?

And He Beisheng was helping to get out of the car, it was Mrs. He who was full of silver frost......
