Du Heng returned home, the patriarch was ready, it was a big day to open the ancestral hall today, and the whole clan had arrived, and in the past, it was only opened on the right day, so it would definitely be a big deal to open the ancestral hall in the new year, and no one dared to delay.

"The ancestral hall is opened today just to talk about the family rules, I have been a little relaxed for a long time, my Du family is also a century-old family, how can you allow you juniors to come at will and ruin my Du family's style."

The patriarch scolded very angrily, talking about the ins and outs, everyone is actually clear in their hearts, and some people don't know everything.

"Zhao'er, you come out and kneel, because you ruined the Du family's style, causing our whole clan to be looked down upon, can you be guilty?"

The patriarch stared at Du Zhao, his eyes were very cold and angry.

Du Zhao stood up and knelt on the ground towards the spiritual seat of the ancestral hall.

"It's my fault, I admit it."

Du Zhao had nothing to quibble about at this moment, he lowered his head and admitted it, his face was very dark and embarrassed.

"Okay, now that you admit it, I still have something to announce, the Li family has corrupted the Du family, and they will be concubines for life, and they will not be allowed to go to the family tree.

The Li family can only be named as a concubine and a concubine, and cannot be changed at will, and he must kowtow to the eldest woman to confess his guilt during the New Year's holidays. As for you Du Zhao, I don't want to embarrass the old and weak women and children, but your responsibility is the heaviest, can you admit that you will be fined fifty boards?

The compensation of 1,000 taels of silver in the clan is used to buy ancestral fields and relieve the old and weak women and children, are you willing? ”

"I do."

"Patriarch, it's my old woman who didn't teach her son well, it's all my fault, I'm willing to personally pay another 1,000 taels to buy an ancestral field for the clan."

Mrs. Du also took the initiative to stand up and add a little more money, which can be regarded as making amends to the old and young masters in the clan.

Everyone's grievances are a little less, and when they go out, they are pointed at, and everyone is very angry, not to mention that we are innocent.

"The patriarch, my third brother and I are also willing to pay a total of 1,000 taels each for a total of 2,000 taels to buy ancestral fields for the clan, which can be regarded as making amends for everyone's sins."

Du Peng and Du Heng also stood up and repeatedly apologized.

"Well, your Tao is quite regular, but you should also be vigilant, you are not innocent, don't think I don't know that."

The patriarch was not confused, and rolled his eyes at them, which was quite tolerated.

"The Yang family invited Mama Wang in front of the palace to Jingfu as a nurturing grandmother, which can be regarded as giving me the face of Du's family, just for Jingfu's face, are you willing to spare Du Zhao?"

"Jingfu is a good girl, sensible and filial, and she looks like everyone's daughter, since that's it, forget it, you can't do it again in the future."

Some old people are over for the sake of the ancestral field.

"Okay, someone will play the board."

Seeing that everyone agreed, the patriarch nodded and asked his subordinates to play the board for Du Zhao.

Li and Du Lianrong stood aside and looked very different, everyone didn't give them a single look, and at the same time, the patriarch asked people to write a genealogy, and Du Lianrong made a note, Du Zhao's concubine room, and gave birth to a daughter named Lianrong, a concubine.

As for the one in the belly who has not yet been born, there is no need to rush to remember, remembering mercy is to confirm the identity of this concubine, don't think about tricks anymore, otherwise the Yang family can't let it go easily.

The Li family lowered her head aggrievedly and shed tears, the development of things was completely unexpected and under her control, no one listened to her words at all, and no one cared about her, and Du Zhao couldn't be the master of the patriarch.

From the funeral banquet, he was completely out of control, and became a concubine step by step, and his plans for several years came to naught, and he completely annoyed his aunt and grandmother, Mrs. Du, and turned his face with himself.

Thinking of this, Li clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and gritted his teeth with hatred for Du Jingfu, the initiator, and said secretly in his heart, Du Jingfu, with you without me, with me without you, the days will be long, let's see.

Du Zhao was beaten fifty boards and carried back, the Li family was in a hurry to go back to take care of him, at this time only he could protect himself, he could only hold him tightly, and everyone in the Du family wanted to swallow her alive.

On the way back, Du Lianrong pulled Li's sleeve and asked in a low voice, "Mother, what is a concubine?" ”

Li Shi was stunned, tears rolled in his eyes, "The concubine is the daughter of the concubine, she is one layer lower than others, and she has wronged my daughter." It's all bad for your mother, it's your sister who doesn't like it, and it annoys your eldest sister, so don't blame your sister. ”

Du Lianrong tilted her head, she has always been the most favored, she was already unhappy to have a sister, but now she is cold-eyed everywhere when she returns to the Du family, and she is not as comfortable as the small courtyard before.

The little girl also understands the warmth and coldness of people, and sensitively finds that everyone is not friendly.

"I don't like my sister, I hate her."

Du Lianrong's eyes turned red with grievances.

"Poor boy, don't say that, you'll be punished, remember."

Li Shi hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled, his eyes were cold and cold.

"I don't say it, but I just hate her, so I don't recognize any sister."

"My good girl, you still have a younger brother, this is the waist pole you rely on all your life, you have to be well-behaved in the future, you have to be sensible and obedient to please your grandmother, and our mother's life can be better."

Li quietly taught his daughter to learn to please others.

"I remember."

Du Lianrong nodded, as if he understood.

The Li family took care of Du Zhao, and Du Lianrong was taken over by Mrs. Du to take care of her for a few days, and then gave her a small courtyard to send someone to take care of her.

Mrs. Du returned to the house tiredly, "The matter is finally over, so the Yang family should be satisfied." ”

I really feel very tired.

"It's not necessarily satisfying, it's just that I don't want to make enemies anymore and make Jingfu embarrassed, other people's daughters have died in our family, how can they be satisfied."

Du Heng said sarcastically, if my daughter dies in someone else's house, I will kill my eldest brother.

"Now that it's like this, what else do you want?"

Mrs. Du was also a little annoyed, she was not her own daughter in the end, so naturally it didn't matter, she had paid compensation and thought it was over.

Du Heng wanted to say something, but Qian dragged him and shook his head slightly, which means that it doesn't make sense at all, it's useless to say it, it will only annoy the old lady, why bother, it's better to take care of your niece more in the future.

"The second family's family, let people clean up the small courtyard of Xiyuan and let it be merciful, send a grandmother to teach the rules, and serve a few girls, how to say that it is also our young lady, and it has to be taught."

Seeing the pity on the side of the standing, Mrs. Du sighed and had to take over this trouble, and asked the Li family to teach the child, which is estimated to be even more crooked.

"Yes."

Jiang pursed his lips and responded unhappily.

"Okay, let's stop here today, I'm tired too, go down, follow your second aunt, and rest with your aunt later."

Mrs. Du paused and changed her words.

"Auntie?"

Pity Rong didn't get used to the word, didn't understand it, and asked with big eyes and tilted his head.

Jiang laughed, "Your mother is a concubine, isn't it an aunt, remember to change your name to aunt in the future, don't let people think that our family has no rules, and you will be punished for calling your mother." ”

Pity was so frightened that she shrunk her neck and nodded, her little face timid.
