Lei Xinyue only hoped that the Immortal Cultivation Realm's reaction to this matter would not be excessive, and when the time came, he hoped that they would follow the rules of the Immortal Cultivation Realm and not do anything to ordinary people.

The next day, Lei Licheng's successor elders all took leave and went to the town to buy the things needed for the succession ceremony.

Lei Xinyue made two sets of small Hanfu shorts according to the size of Xiao Leiming, a pair of small leather boots, and put them in an empty storage bag, which was prepared for Xiao Leiming, and the equipment to go over there.

On the third day of the third month of March, it was only seven o'clock, and the ancestral hall was full of people, originally planned to do it quietly behind closed doors, but now, everyone in the village who could spare time came.

There's no way, the patriarch is rarely seen in modern times, and now that I know that there is a patriarch inauguration ceremony, I have come to join in the fun.

In the past, if there was a conflict in the clan, if there was a dispute, the patriarch would mediate and solve the problem. Now small matters are solved by the village party secretary of the village committee, and there are police stations and governments for major matters.

The patriarch or something, now it's just an ornament, and there is no power at all, it's just that the annual New Year's sacrifice, Qingming tomb sweeping and ancestor worship, are all presided over by the patriarch, and other times it doesn't play a role.

The ancestral hall was crowded with people, and all kinds of offerings such as roast pigs, chickens, apples, and oranges were placed and everything was ready.

When everyone came, they couldn't drive them away, so the succession ceremony of the patriarch was carried out publicly.

Lei Licheng shouted loudly: "Quiet, the ceremony has begun, quiet." It took a few quiet calls before the crowd quieted down.

The second grandfather first respectfully lit the incense stick, which was hung by Lei Licheng under the beam, and then began to preside over the ceremony.

"Light incense."

"Kneel."

Lei Liwen raised three large incense sticks with both hands, knelt on a futon in front of the offering table, and lowered his head.

Lei Xinyue stood at the back of the crowd, watching many people holding their mobile phones, cameras or taking pictures, or videotaping, and some people actually playing live broadcasts.

Lei Xinyue was beating a drum in her heart, for fear that the situation would get out of control when the trouble got bigger.

The third uncle was standing in the front row, and his cousin Lei Xinyou was holding up his mobile phone.

The second grandfather's voice continued to sound.

"When I was old, the vicissitudes of the world, the ancestors and the ancestors, the Quartet ......,

……

Mourning and mourning, the ancestors of the Lei family, today, the Lei family's Liwen, pure character, gentle and generous, to the affection to the sex, benevolence, righteousness, loyalty and filial piety, today, to take over the patriarch, succession, the sacredness of the ancestors of the Lei family, Hong, the prestige of the ancestors of the Lei family, command the eight directions, and create brilliance. ”

The second grandfather wore reading glasses, held an A4 piece of paper, and said a lot.

"Incense."

Lei Liwen got up and inserted the incense into the incense burner.

"Licheng."

Originally, there was a new patriarch to speak, but thinking about the following, there was also the matter of the successor elder, and the four old men waved their hands and saved.

Next, it was the turn of the succession ceremony of the four elders, and the second grandfather changed a piece of paper and read a lot of it with enthusiasm.

Lei Xinyue stood at the back of the crowd, looking at the four young elders, offering incense and kneeling, while the crowd standing in the patio held their mobile phones, recording this important moment.

After the ceremony was completed, Lei Liwen walked to the front of the offering table under the gaze of the four former elders, maintaining a calm attitude.

The four young elders, according to what several old people had taught in advance, knelt down on one knee to Lei Liwen, clasped their hands into fists, and said in unison: "Subordinate Lei Licheng (Lei Liwei, Lei Lixin, Lei Liyao) pay a visit to the patriarch." ”

Lei Liwen put his hands on the back and said, "No courtesy." ”

At this time, everyone was amazed, Lei Liwen and several young elders were a little blushing, and they were a little embarrassed to make such a scene in front of so many people and so many cameras.

The seventh uncle shouted to everyone: "Okay, now that the ceremony is over, everyone in each room can get a bag of rice and a can of oil, and go over there to line up, ah." ”

When everyone heard this, more than half of Hulala went to the gate of the West Chamber to line up to receive rice.

Fortunately, everyone knows that the so-called patriarch and clan elder are just empty names, no benefits, no rights, only know that they are the ones who lead the sacrifice, and everyone is not uncommon.

Otherwise, as long as the position of the patriarch can get some benefits, I am afraid that it will be a battle.
