Chapter 19 is a good question

Looking at the emotional clansmen, Patriarch Xu raised his hand to stop them

"Quietly, listen to me."

"We don't listen, we don't be quiet, today the patriarch and the elders don't cancel the matter of going to the field to harvest rice, we will change the patriarch and elders."

"Yes, if we don't cancel the matter of going to the field, we will change the patriarch and elders."

"Don't cancel, change the patriarch, change the elder, don't cancel, change the patriarch......."

The clansmen shouted loudly again.

Patriarch Xu and the four elders looked at the clansmen who were protesting, a little confused.

Why are the clansmen so united today?

Could it be that someone deliberately took advantage of today's incident to take the opportunity to pull down these commanders?

If that's the case, the status of the five of them will not be guaranteed.

"Quietly ......." These two words were shouted by Patriarch Xu with internal force.

For his clansmen, he generally has a serious face, and when he makes decisions, he is also the final word.

Today was the first time he had yelled at his people.

The clansmen were quiet, and Patriarch Xu said

"You ask for a change of patriarch and elder, then I'm going to ask you, why?"

"Could it be that I, the patriarch, and the elders have treated you badly?"

"If this is the case, the patriarch will satisfy you, according to the clan rules, before the next patriarch succeeds to the throne, you need to fast for three days."

"It means that before the Kazhong did not succeed to the throne, the patriarch of this clan was still your patriarch, and my words were still the clan order, and this autumn harvest will be at least one household, and there will be four laborers over the age of fifteen."

As soon as Patriarch Xu's words came out, the clansmen were stunned.

The Great Elder jumped out after him, "What the patriarch said is right, according to the clan rules, whether it is the abdication of the patriarch or the abdication of the elder, there must be a charter. ”

"The successors of the past generations are the eldest sons of the rulers."

"Each generation of heirs succeeds to the throne, whether it is a patriarch or an elder, they all need to fast for three days, you want to change the patriarch and elders, and this elder also agrees."

"This year's autumn harvest is a matter for the patriarch to discuss with our elders, and the next heir will take the throne, and this decision is not allowed to be changed."

"Yes, we agree." The second, third, and fourth elders strongly supported it.

As the commanders of the clan, at this moment, they must advance and retreat together, otherwise their position will not be guaranteed.

Hearing this, the clansmen were about to compromise.

But.

Someone suddenly said, "We are going to change the patriarch and elders, not to let the patriarch and elder abdicate, but to re-elect a new patriarch and elder." ”

"Yes, we're going to re-elect the patriarchs and elders."

"That's right, we are all descendants of our ancestors, why are the positions of patriarchs and elders passed from father to son, not elected by the clan?"

"Or is it that we don't have the blood of our ancestors?"

"That is, if we don't cancel the matter of going to the field today, we will only recognize the newly elected patriarch and elders."

"Abolish the current one and elect a new patriarch and elder ......."

In order not to work, the clansmen unanimously abolished the current one and elected a new patriarch and elder.

Patriarch Xu and the elders all had dark faces.

Do these people want to rebel?

They are all rulers who have been passed down from generation to generation.

Although there was only one patriarch and one elder at the beginning.

But from generation to generation, there are more clansmen, and so do the elders.

This suddenly doesn't let a few of their families rule, how can it be done?

Patriarch Xu and a few elders were on it with black faces and silent.

The clansmen shouted below to abolish the incumbent and elect a new one.

Up and down, no one compromised, so it was deadlocked.

When Xu Susu came with Xu Gong, his face turned gloomy when he saw this scene.

This bunch of scum.

Lazy?

In order not to work, he rebelled here.

If it weren't for her family's kindness to her, she wouldn't care about this scumbag.

What system bindings.

I'll you.

It's a big deal, eighteen years later, he is a good man again.

Do you really think you're afraid of death?

"Those who advocate the election of patriarchs and elders, all stand up for me."

"I, Xu Susu, want to see which one can have the ability to lead our Xu clan, like the Zhu and Lu clans, to wear silk and satin, live in a mansion, and there are more than 100 people in the house, and there are four people in the sedan chair when they go out, and the carriage is a good day for the city."

Xu Susu stood in front of Patriarch Xu, looking at the clansmen below with sharp eyes, completely in the posture of a superior person.

A family of scum who still wants to rebel, and they are not afraid of self-defeating.

As soon as Xu Susu's words came out, some people shouted at the troublemakers

"Xu Susu, don't you just want to keep your grandfather's position as the patriarch."

"Our Xu clan is poor, it is passed down from our ancestors, why don't you have to lead us to live a good life when your grandfather is in charge, this is a replacement, you want us to lead the whole clan to live a good life?"

"That's a good question." Xu Susu squinted at the clansman who asked the question

"I, Xu Susu, also want to know, why you are poor, you can say that you have passed down from your ancestors."

"Then my lord's position as the patriarch, you can ignore the ancestral system of your ancestors?"

"In that case, what qualifications do you have to stand here and say unashamedly that you want to abolish the incumbent and elect a new one?"

"Could it be that my lord and a few elders harmed you and made you so poor and miserable as you are now?"

"My lord and a few elders are just under the clan rules, let you go to work to save the clan's expenses, and you haven't changed the clan rules, you are just making trouble here, but I'm really not afraid of panic on your face."

"Think about how many of the women in our clan were married from nearby villages?"

"And the girls in our clan, how many of them are not married far away?"

"Don't you want your own daughter to marry far away?"

"Aren't you afraid that your children will end up like my father?"

"Tenth Master, have you forgotten Uncle Jing's leg, how did it get lame?"

In the last sentence, Xu Susu looked at Xu Shiye and asked.

"Jing'er, he is lame in the experience, how can I forget?" Xu Shiye choked up and said.

When his son had an accident, he didn't even marry his relatives, so he was abolished.

Now in his thirties, no one wants to marry him.

Buying a wife, the family rules do not allow it.

changed wives, and was afraid that the things of the clan would be spread out.

But it's really hard.

"If you were given a chance, would you still be willing to let your grandson go through it?" Xu Susu asked directly, with a pair of eyes, looking directly at Xu Shiye, like an invisible pressure on Xu Shiye's body.

Xu Shiye shook his head, "If you can, I hope that the descendants of the clan will never go through the training." ”

It's too dangerous.

Over the years, it is not without reason why there are only 49 households in the clan.

Some of them are ruined for the rest of their lives when they go to cheat, if something happens and they return to the clan.

Some went outside and did not cheat on their daughters-in-law.

Don't talk about how not to marry girls from the village and nearby villages.

It was a secret of the clan and could not be discovered.

Even if there are girls in the village or girls from nearby villages, they can only marry back after the consent of the clan.

In order to prevent the village from talking to people in nearby villages, the clan deliberately spread it to the outside world.

To marry a wife in the Xu family's compound, there are two requirements, one: it must be a person who is favored by the clan, and second: it must be recognized by the clan, and as for the family dowry, it is not required.

There is only one point for marrying a daughter in the Xu family's compound, whether it is a favorite person of the clan or not, the dowry is at least a hundred taels of silver, and it is still the position of the wife.

Of course, the girl's dowry was also a rich hundred taels of silver, with a few sets of jewelry.

It means that the daughter of the Xu family is not a concubine.

If you really meet the person you like outside, and you can keep the secret, even if the man's family conditions are poor, the clan will agree, as for the dowry, the same hundred taels of silver, with a few sets of jewelry.

Xu Susu smiled with satisfaction, "Clansmen, if you don't want to lose your beloved son like my father, you don't want your beloved son to be hurt, and you don't want your daughter to marry far away, then try to change." ”
