Chapter 52: The Ancestral Hall (2)

Cai and Li Zhiyuan were instructed, one ran towards the village chief of Weiliu, and the other hurried home to take care of the child.

"Uncle Li Zheng, are we really going to that ancestral hall?" A junior of the Liu family said loudly.

Before Li Zheng spoke, Cousin Liu had already spit on Liu Gui: "I didn't see that Chungui has passed, if you can see it, you are willing to let Chungui suffer this loss, you can not pass." I'm going to get there! ”

After saying that, she walked a few steps quickly and kept up with the steps of Chungui.

Li Zheng's daughter-in-law immediately followed, and the remaining Liu family elders shook their heads and called the juniors next to them: "Go home and call your mother." After saying that, they all followed.

This matter is destined to make a big fuss, and as soon as the drum of grievances sounds, even if they are unhappy in their hearts, they still have to show up, it is better to go over earlier, so that the child who returns to Chungui will suffer less.

After the crowd dispersed, only Liu Gui and a gang of gangsters in the field remained.

"Brother Gui, she really wants to go to the ancestral hall to sue you!"

Liu Gui listened to the whole process, and his heart was already empty at this time: "Go, go!" She loves to tell or not! Can I manage it when I'm in a hurry! ”

The gangsters looked at each other, they didn't know the bottom of their hearts, and they didn't know whether to do this work anymore.

The group has walked to Tianshui Village, and on the other side, Cai's also listened to the instructions to go home to see the child, but she was crying as she walked, and the sobbing couldn't stop, this is a good time today, set up a stall and earned enough money, Qi You and Zhixing passed the first test again, and they are really talented, how could this kind of thing happen!

Chungui is a family of only a few small ones in this half a year to raise a sturdy crop, Chungui is still too thin to get up early in the morning, how can it stand up to ten boards!

The more Cai thought about it, the more uncomfortable he became, and when he walked to the door, his eyes were still red, and he endured it for a long time to dry his face before he forced himself to put on a smiling face and enter the door.

But before she could enter the door, the three children had already run out, all looking behind her with their eyes open. Zhiping said crisply: "Aunt Cai, where is my sister-in-law?" ”

Cai didn't hold back and shed tears again.

Zhiping is still a child, and he is timid, when he saw Cai's appearance, he immediately pouted and burst into tears, but he still couldn't help asking: "Aunt Cai, where did my sister-in-law go?" ”

Zhimin has been raised by Chungui for half a year, and she is already a small responsible sister, seeing this, her eyebrows jumped, and she hurriedly pulled her younger brother over and hugged her, raising her eyes and looking at Cai's suspiciously.

With two children who are so sensible, Cai's head is really unbearable.

Xiaobao was precocious, and he knew that something was wrong at a glance, and he only touched Zhiping's head comfortingly with a tense face.

Cai wiped his face and went into the kitchen to cook for a few children, Xiaobao skillfully lit the fire, while Zhiping Zhimin sat aside, but his eyes kept glancing out. Cai's ruthlessness didn't look at them, but she also kept thinking in her heart whether Chun Gui had gone to Tianshui Village at this moment, and whether she had beaten that drum of grievances, and if the ten boards were beaten by those young and strong people, how could her body be able to eat.......

Li Zhicun also invited the village chief Liu, and the relatives surnamed Liu who were scattered in Xiaoliangshan also knew that the spring return was going to sound the drum of injustice today, and they were all full of shock at the moment, and they were busy putting down the work at hand and rushing to the ancestral hall.

There were bursts of movement at the door of Cai's house, leading to Ping Zhimin looking at the door.

The head of Liu Village is old, and Li Zhicun has already driven the donkey cart to send people over, and the juniors of the Liu village chief's family have also rushed over after leaving someone to take care of the children, Liu Jiawang and his wife were stunned when they heard that it was the spring return to beat the drum of injustice, and they put the little gold in the neighbor's house, and the two husbands and wives were passing by the door of Cai's house at the moment.

"When spring returns, you will be hit by the board, you can see if you can talk to the board, they are all relatives, you must be lighter!"

Liu Jiawang nodded again and again: "I know, I know, what kind of sin has this created!" Liu Gui is so splashy, and the patriarch is so careless, forcing Chungui to seek justice like this. ”

They talked like this, and they didn't even see the two children on the side looking at them. The couple continued to rush forward, and suddenly there was a sound of footsteps behind them, and before they could look back, the corners of their clothes were gently pulled.

The two hurriedly turned around and saw Zhiping and Zhimin looking at them with teary eyes.

Liu Jiawang's daughter-in-law immediately chuckled in her heart, and hurriedly hugged Zhiping: "Why are you two here?" ”

Zhimin forced a sobbing sound and whispered, "Sister-in-law...... Why should you be beaten .......?"

Zhiping whimpered, his eyes fixed on her.

Liu Jiawang's daughter-in-law had a sour nose: "It's okay, sister-in-law is fine, let's go help your sister-in-law, you two are obedient." ”

Liu Jiawang's heart has been so soft since he became a father, and he is also uncomfortable at the moment, but the couple still have to hurry, and if they go one step this night, they may be beaten when they return to spring.

The two looked at each other and didn't know how to tell the two children, but Cai didn't see anyone and had come out to look for it. Seeing the appearance of the two of them, my heart was sour again.

The adults know what's going on, but the children don't know anything, only that their closest relatives are suffering at the moment.

Zhiping timidly grabbed the cuffs of Liu Jiawang's daughter-in-law: "I miss my sister-in-law." ”

Since the two children have lost their father, it is Chungui who has single-handedly raised people from a thin appearance to now white and tender, in addition to going to private school, Zhiping has not left Chungui half a step, and the two brothers are not there at this moment, which is when the two of them are most anxious.

Cai Shi couldn't think of this, she gritted her teeth and opened her eyes, paused again, stomped her foot and said directly: "No matter!" I'll take you there! ”

As soon as he heard this, Zhiping immediately struggled to come down, Liu Jiawang and his wife, you look at me, I look at you, and finally sighed.

After Cai finished speaking, he entered the door and brought Xiaobao out, closed the door and locked the door.

Liu Jiawang and his wife were also waiting at the door, and Cai's three children were always unable to take care of them alone, so it was better to go over together.

The three adults each took a child and walked briskly towards Sweetwater Village.

At this moment, Tianshui Village is much more lively than Xiaoliangshan, and the matter of spring return spreads quickly, and it spreads throughout the village in a short time. The Liu family, who were scattered in various villages, rushed to hear the news, and the people with foreign surnames watched one after another people with the surname Liu walk past and go straight to the ancestral hall of the Liu family in Tianshui Village, and every family looked at it like this.

This opening of the ancestral hall to express grievances is not a trivial matter, and it has not been done in the past few decades.

"Spring return is forced to be urgent."

"Isn't it, Liu Gui is not a good thing, it has hurt his own family, so Patriarch Liu should come out this time, right?"

"Alas, I see the suspense, these times the old turtle he raised at home has come out to move, and I haven't seen him come out to wander. However, if he doesn't come out of such a major event as opening the ancestral hall, he won't have the face to see his ancestors. ”

Looking at the lively whispers, he walked towards the Liu family ancestral hall while talking.

Sweet Water Village is the main home of the Liu family, and the ancestral hall is located in the center of the village.

When spring returned, there was already a circle of people, all of whom got the news and ran here to see the excitement.

The ancestral hall is made of blue bricks and white tiles, a standard southern rural building, and there is a big drum on the left side of the gate, which has not sounded for decades.

She listened to the sound of talking around her, walked to the big drum, and immediately picked up the mallet on the side, and slammed it on the big drum next to the ancestral hall, and then the big drum made a heavy sound.

"Knock knock!"

The faster you knock, the faster!

It wasn't until the sound of overlapping footsteps in his ears that Yue Chungui threw the mallet to the ground, and then knelt on his knees with a solemn face.

Lizheng's daughter-in-law, Aunt Liu, and the elders surnamed Liu in Xiaoliangshan followed behind, and as soon as they arrived here, they saw the appearance of Chungui kneeling.

Spring return here has done enough attitude, and it depends on what the Liu patriarch will do.

However, seeing that Chungui had been kneeling for a while, there were only a lot more people around, and there was no figure of the Liu patriarch.

The faces of the group of elders surnamed Liu behind Chun Gui became more and more ugly.

Lizheng's daughter-in-law couldn't hold it back any longer, wiped away her tears, and turned around to sweep the crowd.

"It stands to reason that I am not your Liu family, and I shouldn't be involved with you, but since I was brought to the Liu family when I was three or four years old, I have watched her grow up little by little. Except for Zhixing's father and mother, I am also the elder who returned to the spring, not to mention that Liu Gui said that when he was young, he robbed the junior's land, and when he said that he was big, he went to our Xiaoliangshan to grab the land, I can say anything about this matter anyway. ”

Lizheng's daughter-in-law didn't look at everyone's reaction, but just said.

"Chungui, this girl is now in a hurry to get the ten boards, I can't stop it, and I don't want to stop it, the word justice is already difficult, and I endure the heartache and go with her. But now, one of her girls is already kneeling here, and I want to ask you Patriarch Liu........"

Li Zheng's daughter-in-law said loudly in the direction of Old Man Liu's house: "You don't even dare to show your face, what kind of elder are you!" Where did the face come from that is worthy of the word patriarch! ”

As soon as Li Zheng's daughter-in-law said this, there was an uproar around her.

But he didn't even give a trace of face.

"That's it, everyone and children are kneeling here and dare to be beaten, and no one has escorted Liu Gui over, and the patriarch doesn't go out, this trouble will become a joke for our Liu family."

Chungui knelt on the ground and listened to everyone's words, the corners of his mouth hooked up a sneer, joke? Since she is kneeling here, even if the Liu patriarch shows up, the whole Liu family will have to become a joke in these four towns and eight villages.

Let's take it slowly.

After a while, someone in the crowd suddenly sounded: "The patriarch seems to be here!" ”

Everyone looked back, only the daughter-in-law and the elders surnamed Liu stood still.

The juniors who came with him came out of the family, and there was a dry cigarette that he didn't have time to smoke for a long time.

The head of the Liu clan is about the same age as his father, and there is the head of the patriarch pressing, he should be a generation of highly respected people, but he has a mediocre heart, and advocates the attitude of turning big things into small things, how many people like Liu Gui in the clan, how many people suffer from it, but this old man did nothing, only sat in the temple and ignored the peace of the world.

If this kind of person doesn't use his face and reputation to force him, he won't come out.

It was only then that Li Zheng understood the intention of the spring return.
