Chapter 70: Knocking on the door

After listening to Xu Shen's words, Xu Qian felt that the problem was strict, but he was good at bragging and plagiarizing poetry, but he was very unfamiliar with this kind of thing, crossing is not omnipotent, you can predict the market and choose the right path in life, it does not mean that even this kind of rural thing can be settled.

Anyway, Xu Qian is in a lot of trouble now, and he doesn't know what to do for a while.

Xu Qian glanced at Xu Shen and thought to himself: "With my life experience, if there is no one to help me, I am afraid that things will only get worse and worse, it seems that I have to let this uncle go out, it's you, who made you far-sighted and know the benefits of studying!" ”

After thinking about it, Xu Qian simply regarded himself as a child, spread his hands, and played a scoundrel: "Uncle, no matter what, this matter must be dealt with, if the clansmen continue to make such trouble, even if they have fame in the future, they will inevitably be criticized, and if they are really driven out of the clan, it will be needless to say." What should I do about this matter, and ask my uncle to make an idea, and my uncle will handle it at his discretion? ”

Xu Shen's old face twitched, and the meaning of that sentence was deliberate, didn't he just let him come forward and use him as a gunman? Although he Xu Shen has some status in the clan, he doesn't dare to risk the world, but thinking that Xu Qian has a lot of hope in the future, he can't rashly refuse.

He pondered for a moment and said, "What about this...... It's good to take it slowly. It's better to do this, later, let's go to the old uncle together, gather some old people in the clan to persuade us, and then invite your father from the ancestral hall to come, what do you say, at least there is a little room for maneuver, I am your uncle, naturally I am biased to help you, and when the time comes, I will speak well for you. ”

Good words...... This old fox.

Xu Qian originally wanted to ask him to come forward, but who knew that Xu Shen was just mediating, and although he was disappointed in his heart, he still nodded: "Uncle Xie." ”

"There's no need to ......" Xu Shen smiled and pressed his hand, looking useless, and then said: "Without further ado, let's go now." He got up, Xu Qian ordered Deng Jian and Zhao Mengting to wait here temporarily, with Xu Shen went out, to the courtyard, and saw his cousin Xu Chen squatting on the side of the courtyard and throwing stones into it, Xu Shen was furious, walked over and lifted him fiercely, directly rewarded him with an ear scraper, and scolded angrily: "Dog thing, let you read, you will know how to play." ”

Xu Chen cried loudly, and scolded Xu Qian angrily: "Mourning Star, no wonder they all say that you are Mourning Star, you hurt others, and you want to hurt me, bitter, bitter." ”

Xu Qian smiled bitterly, and hurriedly stepped forward to persuade: "Uncle, the business is important. "That means, come back and fight again.

Xu Shen nodded, and led Xu Qian out of the door.

All the way to the old uncle's house, this old uncle is the only remaining old birthday star in the clan, Xu Qian doesn't know how old he is, but most of the children in the clan are his juniors, the ancients respect the old is not just emotional care, but the old man often has the right to decide, this old uncle is like this, the things in the clan are almost all his words, usually for respect, no one dares to make a time.

It's just that the old uncle was lying on the sickbed at this time, chirping, first Xu Shen went into the room and said a few words to the old uncle, and he didn't know what he promised, and then the old uncle called his grandson to go to each house to call people, and asked Xu Chang to call over on the wall of the ancestral hall.

Xu Chang lost weight, his cheeks were slightly sunken, and his eye circles were very heavy, and when he came in, he didn't look at his son, but obediently knelt down for his uncle and said, "Uncle is safe." After saying that, he pulled Xu Qian and scolded in a low voice: "What are you doing standing, is there a place for you to stand?" ”

Xu Qian was speechless, so he had to kneel down with the old man.

The rest of the elders of the clan sat down around the old uncle's sickbed, and coughed one after another.

"Then Xiao Qian'er is back? Come, come forward. The old uncle's lips twitched, accompanied by a few coughs.

Although Xu Qian is young, but the title of Xiao Qian'er makes him a little unbearable, that is, when he saw the political envoy, people at most called him a member Xu Qian, and when he came here, he became Xiao Qian'er, presumably this is his own milk name, he didn't dare to make a mistake, he wanted to stand up and sit over, Xu Chang, who was kneeling on the side, glared at him angrily: "Won't you kneel?" You rebel, you have broken the rules after reading the book. ”

When he looked over, Xu Qian saw that there was a bruise at the base of his ear, and couldn't help but say, "Dad, who hit this?" Damn, which grandson dares to beat my father! ”

This time, Xu Qian was really angry, damn it, the old Xu family has never been

I haven't suffered a loss, my father has been beaten, and this is worth it.

Who knew that at this time, Xu Chang slapped him and slapped Xu Qian's face, and said angrily: "The old uncle is beating his grandson, shut up." ”

The anger was immediately extinguished by cold water, Xu Qian finally knew who beat him, the old uncle beat his unfilial grandson, just like Xu Qian beat him as an 'unfilial son'.

He stepped forward and saw the old uncle who was full of deep wrinkles on the bed and seemed to be angry, the old uncle opened his eyes to look at him, and a little sophistication passed in his eyes, and after a little look, the old uncle's eyes rose slightly, and said: "You are Xiao Qian'er, it's different, it's different from before." Did you read the book? It is said that reading is good, but what good can reading be? Do you know how many people have cut off their livelihood for you, and how many people in our clan have been bullied by people with surnames for you, I don't blame you, you are a child, I hate Xu Chang's unfilial thing, this must be his idea, he doesn't do a good job, such a good livelihood is not good, and he actually encouraged you to study, our Xu family has continued for more than 100 generations since the ancestors in the family tree, and no one has ever seen anyone study, but they are not living well? You want to have ambition, but you can't get all the people into it. ”

Xu Shen smiled beside him: "This may not be, it's good to read and read, uncle, Qian'er, this child is a piece of reading material, and he has already been born, our Xu family is honorable......"

"Phew......" Who knew that the old uncle suddenly became angry, glared at Xu Shen angrily, and scolded: "You are a full man, you don't know that a hungry man is hungry, you know that you have saved money, of course you can not make a living in the future, you can collect rent according to the land and have food, and it is okay for your children and nephews to study for a lifetime, but what about other people?" Don't you think I don't know your thoughts, you and Xu Chang, this bastard, are the same thing! ”

The old uncle spoke, and the elders sitting on the side nodded one after another, and said: "Yes, yes, not everyone can study, and what if you are a student, you are not a master, you can be rent-free; is not an official master, so that the surnamed Yao does not dare to provoke. Your family has food, but there are so many people in the clan, not everyone has food, and now that it has become like this, how can you be born? ”

Someone else said angrily: "The injury of the pillar is not healed now, if it was changed to before, would the Yao family dare to bully like this?" Isn't it that many people have lost their jobs and have no relationship, and now they are at the mercy of others? Old uncle, drive them out of the clan and use family law. ”

The old uncle looked at Xu Qian and said in a cold tone: "You are a junior, I can't say anything, now many people are persuading you to use the family law, I don't agree." Why? Because you are the blood of my Xu family, you are the same as everyone else is the blood of an ancestor, we are all a family behind closed doors, you are young and ignorant. But your father ......" the old uncle coughed desperately, and said: "Your father can't do it, he doesn't do it well, and now he is angry, and he can't be punished without punishment, the country has national laws, and the family has family rules, now let him go to the ancestral hall to think about it, everyone is going to discuss the results, how to deal with it, and how to deal with it, you don't have to intercede for your father, who is your father, I don't know?" It's not a good thing when he wears open crotch pants, and he should take it out to set an example. ”

Xu Qian suddenly felt a lot of pressure, talking to this old and refined uncle was really heavier than talking to the political envoy, he knew in his heart that he couldn't be reasonable at this time, you can reason with others, how many mouths do you have? But the father-son relationship is deep, although he is usually not less violent by the old man, but let him let the old man be punished, he had an idea, grabbed the old uncle's hand and said: "Uncle, for the sake of you watching me grow up, I must be merciful, all the mistakes are my fault, if you want to beat me, forget it, kill me, as long as I can get rid of my father's relationship, I will die without regrets." ”

This is a hooligan and scoundrel method, although there are family laws in the clan, and there are also people who are killed, and the people do not raise officials and do not hold them accountable in these years, but after all, they are living members, can they really be killed?

The old uncle looked at Xu Qian gloomily, broke free of Xu Qian's hand, and said: "You don't want to use this as a threat, I can see it, you look like a nerd outside, in fact, you and your father are a virtuous person, there are no rules, there is no circle, you say that it is useless to break the sky, you are here today, so it's okay, let's just discuss how to punish together." ”

Xu Qian was speechless in his heart, glanced at the old man, and was about to speak, when he heard the sound of chaotic footsteps outside, and shouted loudly: "Old uncle...... Uncle, something is wrong, the people of the Yao family are here again......"
