Village Chief Gui vomited a mouthful of blood and went a few days later.

The Gui family sold out of land, and five more adults died, leaving the old and young women and children, and life suddenly decayed. The in-laws who had made good friends before either formed a blood feud over their lives, or died in the "Nine Ding Difficulty", leaving the old and young women and children in the family, and it was difficult for them to take care of each other.

For Gui's second grandfather and his wife, the "difficulty of Jiuding" is simply the catastrophe of the Gui family, the loss of brother and brother, the loss of children and nephews, naturally cursed and resented the culprit Gui Yuan for more than ten years.

Now in the face of Gui Chongyang, the son of the culprit, several elders are already lenient without brooms and scolding people with their mouths open.

However, Gui's second grandfather has always thought of the incense behind his eldest brother, and once gave birth to the idea of passing on his little grandson to his eldest brother as a grandson, but because Gui Yuan's life and death were unknown before, and Mei's nominal little daughter-in-law was there, he had many worries, so he hesitated.

If Gui Yuan comes back today, Gui Er's grandfather will have to beat Gui Yuan to death with a stick to avenge the dead brothers and nephews, but it is Gui Chongyang, who is in his teens, who came back today, and he came back with his mother's death and father's funeral holding his parents' tablet, the old man had a cold face, but he was a little excited in his heart.

As for suspecting Gui Chongyang of impersonating or something, Gui's second grandfather never thought about it. Gui Chongyang wears cloth clothes, and the bags he carries are also simple, but he can wear a long shirt and dress as a scholar, which is different from the naughty children in the village.

If you are someone else, such a quiet and quiet big girl seems to be quiet, and the second grandfather of Gui has to dislike the girlhood in his heart, but in the little baby in front of him, there is only worry left. Such a white and pure little face, delicate and tender little hands, at first glance, have never been sunburned in the sun, and have not done rough work. But if this is really too squeamish, how can the Gui family raise it?

Gui's second aunt Yang is in a more complicated mood here, with both residual hatred and secret happiness. At that time, the Gui family lost five men, and the Yang family, which was the closest in-law, also lost two men, who were the Yang family's maiden father and brother. Although the father-in-law and mother-in-law have not mentioned it explicitly, they have also revealed some meaning in the past two years, wanting to marry their youngest son to Mei's niece Mei Duo, and inherit the incense to the long house. Yang didn't hate Mei Duo, but he didn't want to let his son out. Now that Gui Chongyang is back, there is incense in the long house, and the succession is naturally over, and everyone is happy.

Gui Chongyang was watched by everyone, and he was not timid, straightened his small chest, and said: "My father ordered me to come back, so that I could be the patriarch!" ”

What the hell is the patriarch?

Before the few villagers in front of them could react, Gui Er's grandmother, who was born in the town, was well-informed, and immediately drooped her face.

Back then, Gui Yuan ruined the Gui family with a moth, which ruined several houses of the Gui family, and now Gui Chongyang's half-human-tall villain keeps saying that he wants to be the patriarch, is this to make the rest of the people unhappy? Although she is an old woman in the country, she also knows that the so-called patriarch is the head of a family, similar to the head of the family, who has the final say. The baby teeth haven't been molted yet, what kind of moth is this?

Although there are several Gui families in the village, they are also the same ancestor, but because of the events of more than ten years ago, "Donggui" and "Xigui" have long been cut off. Among them, "Xigui" is the brother of the head of Gui Village, and "Donggui" is the other tribesmen. Speaking of "Donggui", those people are also white-eyed wolves, when the head of Gui Village was there, he took advantage of "Xigui" by virtue of his clansmen and cousins, and waited until "Xigui" was in trouble, but he immediately drew a clear line, and even fell into the well, which was worse than people with foreign surnames.

"What patriarch is not a patriarch? The Gui family is an ordinary small farmer, don't make trouble with those moths! Seeing that Grandpa Gui was silent for a while, Grandma Gui Snorted coldly and spoke.

Gui Chongyang said seriously: "My father said that he was ignorant and owed too much to his relatives, so let me come back as a patriarch and lead everyone to live a good life!" ”

Grandma Gui sneered: "You little cub are not afraid of a big fan tongue when you speak?" You take everyone to live a good life, how do you bring it? You even have to rely on people to support yourself, don't say these words to make people laugh! ”

Seeing that everyone didn't believe it, Gui Chongyang unwrapped the package, took out a money bag, poured it onto the kang with a "bang", and rolled out a few white and fat silver ingots, one ten taels, exactly fifty taels.

The silver light of the white flowers attracted everyone's eyes.

You must know that with the relocation of Yongle Ye's capital, there were many princes and nobles who followed from Nanjing, competing to buy land near the capital, and the land price in Tongzhou grew from four or five taels per mu to seven or eight taels per acre. Rao is like this, these fifty taels of silver are also the land price of seven or eight acres of silver, and a family business can be purchased.

Gui's second grandfather's mood became more and more complicated, thirteen years ago, there was only forty-five taels of silver, and nine people died, if Gui Yuan could turn back one step back then, even if he squandered a lot of money outside, as long as he got back forty-five taels of silver, would there be no next tragedy?

It's too late to say anything.

Gui Yuanneng never forgot Mujia Village, and before he died, he ordered his son to come back, which shows that he also knew that he was wrong and did not completely break his conscience.

The house of Changfang was sold to the Li family of his in-laws, and now there are only three dilapidated adobe houses left.

Second Grandpa Gui coughed lightly twice, frowned, and said, "What is this for?" Put it away, and where there is any silver that will be exposed. ”

Mei's aunt and nephew were embarrassed in the end, and they hurriedly lowered their heads when they heard the words.

Gui Chun's temperament is in the same vein as Gui's second grandfather, pure and simple, so although he looks at the silver, there is no greed in his eyes.

Although Grandma Gui Er was reluctant on her face, she had always been a dislike to take advantage of others, so she also looked away. The Yang family is here, her eyes are glued to the silver and she can't take her eyes off, it's not that she is greedy by nature, but the eldest son and second son have reached the age of daughter-in-law, but the family has no permanent property, and there are several elders who need to be supported, who will agree to marry the girl in?

"How do you lead everyone to a good life?" Yang took his eyes off the silver with difficulty, looked straight at Gui Chongyang, and said with red eyes.

"Open source, throttle, property, reading!" Gui Chongyang said loudly.

Seeing that everyone said that his words as a patriarch were a joke, he was not angry for a while and poured the silver out, and he was also a little apprehensive in his heart. The Gui family is so poor now, fifty taels of silver is not a small amount, if a few people in front of him have bad intentions, he will have to suffer a loss if he comes back from other places.

However, Gui Chongyang has a "naïve" personality, and he is heartbroken when he is young, so he is naturally thoughtful. Fang Cai's actions, in addition to being angry, also carried other meanings.

The "Difficulty of Nine Dings" back then was the debt owed by the "father", and it should also be repaid by him, who was a son, but it is not the same thing to repay the debt as the patriarch according to the will. If these relatives of the same blood in front of you are respectable and amiable, the patriarch is a practice; If these people have been degraded by poverty and are not worthy of being close to, then the patriarch is a different approach.

It is also a challenge to build a family alone.

Use fifty taels of silver to identify people's hearts, and do not lose.
