During the meal, Zhang's father told everyone that the ancestral hall of the Zhang family has been renovated and has been repaired, and there is a banquet to be held, and each family can go to two people.

"Which of you is going with me?" Father Zhang asked.

The renovation of the Zhangjia ancestral hall began half a year ago. At that time, their family still scraped together a few hundred yuan, and one Zhang family had a hundred yuan.

Their ancestral hall is not in the village, not even in the city.

Therefore, they worship their ancestors at the door of their homes and invite their ancestors to come to their homes to eat. Unless it is a large-scale ancestor worship event, it is rare to go to the ancestral hall.

Zhang Yaohua has grown so big, and he has only been there three times.

"Grandpa is going too?" Zhang Yaowei asked.

Father Zhang nodded: "Your grandfather will definitely go." ”

In addition to the old man, there were five old men surnamed Zhang in the village who also went together. Especially their uncle, who belongs to the authority of the people surnamed Zhang in their village.

"It must be the eldest brother!" Zhang Yaowei said again.

This kind of thing is usually done by the eldest son and grandson of the family.

In China, the responsibility of the eldest son and grandson is very heavy, and some major things can only be done by the eldest son and eldest grandson. For example, holding spirit cards for the deceased elders, etc., and other small ones are not eligible.

When their grandmother died, the uncle couldn't hold the spirit card, but Zhang Yaohua, the eldest grandson, made it.

At that time, Zhang Yaohua was still young and very afraid. Even though he knew that it was his grandmother, he still woke up several nights.

Zhang Yaohua asked, "When are you going?" ”

"Tomorrow, today your grandfather and they are preparing something. This time, I heard that the family tree will be revised, and when the time comes, I will take a good look at whether our family has made any mistakes. Zhang's father said.

He also planned to let his eldest son go with him, a little more cultured.

You can't make a mistake about genealogy! It's important to everyone. Once it's messed up, it's not clear who the direct ancestors are in the future, isn't it a joke?

There is an old saying: women don't make it to the score!

For thousands of years, Chinese women are not allowed to enter the family tree of their own surname, but can only be recorded in the family tree of their husband's surname, only the surname is remembered, and the name is not recorded, such as "Zheng" and "Wang", the amount of information is very small, and it is not reflected in the lineage chart.

But now, the rules of some surnames have changed, and girls can also write into the family tree, but there is only one name again, and the amount of information is very small.

There is also a situation where a girl is very good and does something earth-shattering, it must be a different matter, such as winning the Olympic championship and so on, you must write about it!

"Okay, don't I have anything to prepare?"

"No, your guild commanded it."

By the way, I also have to teach some rules to my eldest son. Nowadays, many young people don't know the rules, how to do it, etc., and they have to teach by example.

After eating, Zhang Yaohua also followed his grandfather's side to learn something.

The next day, everyone gathered, Zhang Yaohua did not drive, because the uncle had already arranged and invited a bus, and everyone took the bus together.

"Ah Hua is here? Sit here. Uncle Gong greeted.

Zhang Yaohua sat over and said with a smile: "Uncle Gong, your body is tough!" Leveraged. ”

"Old! No more. You! I used to never go door-to-door, and I didn't have time to let you go with me. ”

He had long wanted Zhang Yaohua to follow.

After all, no matter how you look at it, Zhang Yaohua is the best one of this generation, and he must be the leader of the generation of people surnamed Zhang in their village, and he has to carry the banner!

"I'll be free later."

"Hmmm! It's good to have time. Ah Cheng, you have to listen to him in the future. Saying that, Uncle Gong began to make it clear that he wanted Zhang Yaohua to be his successor.

The clan is like this, to hold a group, but also to determine the core person.

Only in this way can we unite and not be bullied by outsiders. And the core person, it is best to be able to lead the entire clan to prosperity. Obviously, Zhang Yaohua is eligible.

Uncle Gong's approach also intends to let Zhang Yaohua take more care of the people surnamed Zhang in the village in the future.

In the South, clan ties are very important connections. One person in the clan is developed, and he tends to pull the rest of the clan.

Ah Cheng is the eldest grandson of Da Bogong, who is older than Zhang Yaohua.

Originally, everyone thought that the Uncle Guild would let Ah Cheng be the talker. So hearing his words, everyone present was quite surprised, but they were quickly relieved.

In terms of ability, Zhang Yaohua is obviously more suitable to be the leader of this generation.

Everyone looked at Ah Cheng.

Ah Cheng smiled: "Ah Hua, I'm still convinced." ”

The happiest is undoubtedly Zhang Yaohua's grandfather.

How could Zhang Yaohua not understand the intentions of the uncle? He smiled bitterly: "Let's listen to Brother Cheng!" He does things fairly, and I obey him. ”

Uncle Gong shook his head: "It's different, you have to be troublesome, just let Brother Cheng do some chores." You guys! Support each other. ”

He had a resolute attitude, and he had to put Zhang Yaohua in that position.

Judging from Zhang Yaohua's recent fortune, it depends on Zhang Yaohua's whether the Zhang family in their village can be transferred.

"Ah Hua, listen to your uncle." Zhang Yaohua's uncle said.

He also wants his nephew to be the one who speaks, although he can't talk about any power, but sometimes that identity is really useful. For example, some thorns in the clan dare not blow up the thorns.

That's the equivalent of the position of the patriarch of their village, surnamed Zhang! In very bad cases, there is the right to propose expulsion from the family tree.

For them, being expelled from the family tree is definitely a very serious and humiliating thing.

In the future, not only will you not even have your ancestors, but you will not even leave a single record after you die.

Friends in the north may not be able to understand this, thinking that people are dead, is it important to remember it in the genealogy? The end of the world has nothing to do with me! When you die, let it flood to the sky!

But in the south, you were expelled from your family tree, and you couldn't even hold your head up with the rest of your family.

"Brother Cheng, you have to help me more in the future."

Ah Cheng nodded: "Don't worry." ”

Seeing Zhang Yaohua nodding, everyone in the car smiled, obviously satisfied with the result.

After more than three hours, they finally arrived at the Zhang ancestral hall. There are a lot of people at the scene, it's very lively, there must be thousands of people!

The changes to Zhang's ancestral hall are still a bit big, especially the front one. Before, he was hit by a car and broke a pillar, and the man couldn't compensate at all, and the cars were all rented.

So, there is a matter of renovation.

"Ah Hua, come with me and let you know some people." Uncle Gong said.

Obviously, it was to introduce him to contacts, whether it was useful or not, Zhang Yaohua's grandfather and others urged Zhang Yaohua to follow him quickly.

Uncle Gong is in a very good mood, and he takes Zhang Yaohua, why not support himself for the scene? There is no excellent junior to follow, and it is not enough to catch up with other old guys.

The Zhang family is a big family, although they are only a branch here, but there are talents from all walks of life.

Zhang Yaohua heard from the eldest uncle that their branch moved down from Jiangxi.
