The main reason why this Qu family ancestral hall was able to be built was because of the money of Qu Menghu and his family, and finally it was built to such a grand style.

This kind of thing, in the countryside is called "eating out of households", generally speaking, it is a family that has no heirs, or only has a daughter, after the head of the family dies, the elders of the whole family will make the decision, the family's property will be "confiscated", as the family property - of course, this is just a more shameful statement, in fact, in the process of dealing with this property, the handler will often go through the hands several times, the oil and water in it will be thoroughly fished out, and finally a little oil residue symbolically to those relatives in the clan who can't get along, or to subsidize the schooling of children in the clan......

This is unimaginable to many people in later generations, but in the Republic of China, when the clan was extremely powerful, it was actually quite common.

After all, at that time, public power did not go to the countryside, and basically relied on the autonomy of the gentry, and this matter also belonged to one of the "public order and good customs".

Because of this, the countryside at that time would desperately give birth to babies, just to have a descendant who inherited the family property, so as not to be eaten out like this, and in the end there was no one to offer incense.

And Qu Menghu's family belongs to a different situation.

When Qu Tianxia was slaughtered, his home was burned by fire, and there was no bitter master, those murderers escaped, and there was a bunch of things left, as well as the property left behind, which naturally fell into the hands of the clan to which the Qu family belonged.

When Qu Tianxia was alive, because of his strong ability, high prestige, and wealth and power, he pressed the clan elders of this clan to death, and he couldn't breathe through, and as a result, people went to tea and cool, and those people naturally didn't keep their hands and made a lot of money, even if Qu Menghu, the authentic heir, came back later, he was also bullied by these relatives and clan elders, and he didn't leave him a little food and clothing at all, forcing Qu Menghu to be ruthless, and finally went away to Nanyang and learned a lot of skills......

But at that time, they still wanted to be faced, and they enshrined Qu Tianxia's family in the main hall, and the incense continued, which also gave Qu Menghu a trace of comfort in his heart.

As a result, the tablet is gone, and there are more elders of the clan who have died in recent years......

How good does this make Qu Menghu's face look good?

However, he asked with a black face, but the deaf and dazzling old man grinned and said: "I don't know about this, I'm just an old man guarding the door, you have to ask Ah Hui about this matter - by the way, Ah Hui's father and his seventh prince retired last year, and now we have more than 400 people in the Qu family, and the entire family is in charge of Ah Hui......"

When Qu Menghu heard it, he chewed it in his mouth: "Ah Hui? ”

The little carpenter asked, "Who?" ”

Qu Menghu said: "My cousin, his father and my grandfather are brothers, and in this village, it is relatively close to my family. ”

The little carpenter said, "What now?" ”

The old man who was called "Jiu Uncle" by Qu Menghu didn't seem to hear them, and said with a smile: "Meng Hu, are you developed now?" You rode the horse tied to the door, right? That horse looks really majestic, you know that it has to spend a lot of money at a glance, right? I've heard people say, "You went to the south, and you made a fortune, right?" got rich, but I can't forget your ninth uncle, I think back then, when you were so young, I hugged you......"

He was full of smiles, and did not mention the matter of Qu Menghu's parents and relatives in the spirit card, but invited Qu Menghu to take credit, but the implication of his words was that he wanted to reward Qu Menghu and let him give some money.

Obviously, he regarded Qu Menghu as the young man who returned home with red eyes at the beginning, but was finally forced to go south.

And he felt that he was the elder of the other party, even if he was a little scoundrel, the other party had to endure it.

After all, in the southwest, it is a great sin to disobey the elders.

However, Qu Menghu was not used to him at all, and he walked slowly and methodically to the memorial tablet of the ancestral hall, his eyes wandered, and finally landed in the most conspicuous place.

There is a tablet with three candles lit in front of it.

The name on it is the father of the previous patriarch and the grandfather of the current patriarch, and it is precisely because of this that he can appear in such a noble position.

Qu Menghu reached over and took down the tablet, then reached over, grabbed an apple on the stage that was used as a sacrifice, took a bite, and then said: "You are limited to five minutes, go and find Ah Hui, you tell him, he can't come, I pouted this tablet......"

Seeing that Qu Menghu was so rebellious, Jiu Bo was also anxious at the moment, stretched out his hand like a bird's claw, and exhaled towards Qu Menghu's face.

He slapped and scolded: "You rebellious little thing, do you know that the soul of the ancestors is attached to the tablet, and if you mess with the tablet, it will disturb the souls of the ancestors......"

The Qu family is still martial, and this Jiubo was also a practitioner when he was young.

Although he is now old and decrepit, he is not ambiguous at all when he moves.

Seeing that his slap was about to slap Qu Menghu's face, the round-faced boy kicked the old man in front of him to the side of the threshold......

Jiu Bo fell to the ground, rolled a few laps, got up and cried: "Kill, kill, that bastard in the world has killed someone......"

He cried and made trouble, but he knew that Qu Menghu was powerful, so he just didn't come forward.

After he shouted, a few people came to the door, but Qu Menghu didn't care at all, and said coldly: "It's been a minute, you still have four minutes; In addition, you tell Ah Hui that if you don't show up for a quarter of an hour, I will burn all the tablets of the ancestors and ancestors on this platform; If he doesn't come for half an hour, I will burn this Qu family ancestral hall......"

After Qu Menghu threatened, he said calmly: "Believe it or not, anyway, I will do what I say." ”

Uncle Jiu saw that Qu Menghu had even beaten himself, and he looked absolutely uneasy to mess with, and he didn't care about the feelings of his relatives at all, so he didn't dare to delay at the moment, pushed the young man next to him, and shouted, "What are you doing in a daze?" This guy is crazy, hurry up and find the patriarch to come over......"

Behind the people, he called the patriarch of the Qu family "Ah Hui", but at this time, in front of people, it was not so smooth.

Jiu Bo was frightened, and ran out of the ancestral hall with people under the pretext of shouting, but at this time, several other people came, one of whom looked more mature and had a beard, and a young man with a beard walked forward and greeted Qu Menghu: "Old eight, you don't say hello when you come, have you eaten?" Why don't you go to my house for a bite to eat? I'll tell your sister-in-law to get you something to eat......"

The man walked over very familiarly, wanting to reach out to invite Qu Menghu's shoulder, but Qu Menghu took a step back and asked, "Are you?" ”

The young man smiled a little awkwardly and said, "You forgot, old eight? I'm your brother Liang, when you were young, I also took you to the field to catch loaches? Do you remember? ”

Qu Menghu remembered: "Oh, Qu Pingliang? It's been a long time......"

The young man breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Remembered? I know you haven't forgotten me, let's go, come with me to dinner......"

He looked enthusiastic, but Qu Menghu said: "Eat freely, do you know where my family's tablet was got?" ”

Qu Pingliang said: "I don't know this, but it's okay, after eating, I'll take you to the patriarch's house to ask about it, you say, right?" ”

Qu Menghu held the spirit card of the patriarch grandfather in one hand and said, "I'll just wait here." ”

His repeated refusals made the smile on Qu Pingliang's face solidify, and after the other party was silent for a few seconds, he said: "Old eight, you are going to toast without eating and drinking, and not giving face, right?" ”

Qu Menghu smiled, and said mercilessly to this young man who was dressed in a bit of wealth: "You are a wine shop guy who works as a long-term worker in my house, what face do you need me to give you?" ”

Qu Pingliang's face turned red for a while, and he also tore his face at the moment, and shouted at Qu Menghu: "Qu Laoba, do you still think you are the young master of the wine shop?" Come on, how many years has your father been dead, and what kind of young master is he still playing with us here? Come on, this guy disturbs the order of the ancestral hall and beats the elders of the clan, he is simply a disloyal, unfilial, unkind and unrighteous person, come with me, take down this guy, and return to the family law to serve ......"

He took two steps forward, but he rushed towards Qu Menghu.

When the little carpenter saw the posture of his feet, he knew that the other party was a practitioner, and he had a certain amount of cultivation.

He accompanied Qu Menghu to the platform this time, where could he stand by and let Qu Menghu go down in person?

Thinking like this, the little carpenter stepped forward and stood in front of Qu Menghu.

That Qu Pingliang saw that such a person had been killed, and he resolutely shouted: "Get out, or I will take ...... with you."

He was violent, and he smashed his long fist suddenly, but it was a black tiger's heart-digging posture.

The enemy was menacing, but the little carpenter seemed very calm, stretched out his hand lightly, grabbed Qu Pingliang's wrist, and clasped his three fingers, and the fierce young man said "ouch" and fell down directly.

The rest of the people who heard the greeting and wanted to rush up saw this posture and subconsciously stopped.

The little carpenter pinched Qu Pingliang, making half of his body numb, and then asked, "Do you have any opinions?" ”

Qu Pingliang wanted to be a hero in front of everyone, gritted his teeth and held on, but in less than three seconds, he cried bitterly and shouted "Grandpa spares his life", and at this moment, a group of people came to the door of the ancestral hall, led by a middle-aged man who pointed here and shouted: "Stop, don't be presumptuous......"

The little carpenter turned his head to look at Qu Menghu next to him, but the corners of Qu Menghu's mouth turned up, and he said slowly: "The main master is here." ”
