He didn't have the resources to cultivate, and he wouldn't be blamed for slowing down his cultivation progress. Pei Ruxi has resources, Daddy and Eighth Uncle will definitely keep an eye on Pei Ruxi, urge her to cultivate every day, and may lock her in the house, not allowing her to relax in the slightest.

Imagining the picture of Pei Ruxi being locked up and asked to cultivate, Pei Chenglie smiled even more happily.

The good boy couldn't guess his thoughts, and the boy who was very happy when he could play guessed it, hit Pei Chenglie in the shoulder with a fist, and shouted: "I said I didn't want resources first!

"Bao!" Pei Chenglie was dumbfounded, "You beat me, I will beat you too!"

The two boys fight, completely ignoring whether the scene is appropriate or not.

Some of the other children clapped their hands while watching, and some followed Pei Ruxi and Pei Asi to say what was in their hearts, letting the clan know that they were unwilling to accept unfair treatment.

Pei Ruxi saw Pei Chenglie and Ah Bao fighting, and calmly released six ropes made of clear water to pull the two apart, and said, "Don't fight here." ”

"He hit me!" Pei Chenglie habitually complained.

"He robbed me of what I was going to say!" Po will also sue.

Pei Ruxi said: "You can't fight now, if you insist on fighting, I can only tie you up." ”

Pei Chenglie, who had been tied, immediately confessed with the times: "I won't fight!" by the way, he instigated, "He still wants to fight with me, you tie him up quickly, don't let him move!"

Ah Bao, who had seen Pei Chenglie tied up with his own eyes, was also honest, glared at Pei Chenglie and said, "Don't talk nonsense, I won't fight!"

Pei Chenglie wanted to quarrel with him, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Xu Jia's eyebrow pinching technique that seemed to be a silence technique, and his mouth was immediately firmly closed. Ah Bao was clever, and when he saw Pei Chenglie shut up, he didn't dare to speak.

Pei Ruxi, who silently threatened the two boys, let go of the spell and let the other children quiet down.

She looked at the patriarch Pei Jinlun and said, "Patriarch, what we want to say is basically said, and now it is your turn to give us doubtful children a reasonable explanation on behalf of the clan." ”

Why do clans talk about fairness and justice, but treat girls and boys differently when it comes to reducing resources?

Facing the eyes of Pei Ruxi and other children who would not give up without explanation, Pei Jinlun's apology in his heart was even more distinct, and there was a kind of annoyance that his majesty was offended.

Pei Jinlun asked Pei Ruxi: "Didn't your father tell you? ”

Pei Ruxi said: "My father said that the patriarchal law also requires us to accept the clan arrangement. But the patriarch, the patriarch also clearly states that if we think that the clan's decision is unreasonable, we can raise doubts. Ask the patriarch to clear our doubts, and don't talk about him left and right. ”

How to explain doubts to be reasonable?

To say that the clan is so patriarchal? is it to bully the side branches like this?

As the patriarch of the Pei clan, Pei Jinlun may not be qualified, but he knows what he can't say.

Patriarchal law requires equal treatment of boys and girls, and if the patriarch admits that the clan prefers sons over daughters, what will he ask after today to demand that the girls who are treated differently pay for the clan?

Girls will say that the clan gives more to the boys than to them, and that the boys should give more than they do.

The patriarch claims that all Pei clan members have no distinction between lineage and side branches, if the patriarch admits that the lineage is more noble than the side branches, what will the side branches that are treated differently be used after today to dedicate themselves to the clan?

The side ward says that the clan gives more to the descendants than to them, and the descendants should give more than they do.

Pei Jinlun couldn't explain the doubts raised by Pei Ruxi and others, and decisively asked Pei Xiangrong for help: "Second brother, you are familiar with the patriarchal law, you will answer them." ”

Pei Xiangrong, who expected that Pei Jinlun would ask for help, looked at Pei Ruxi and the others unhurriedly, and said, "Both boys and girls are members of the Pei clan, and it is indeed inappropriate for the clan to reduce the cultivation resources given to girls. He turned his head and asked Pei Jinlun, "Patriarch, might as well cut the boys' cultivation resources by one-sixth, and the girls' cultivation resources from one-third to one-sixth?"

"This ......" Pei Jinlun hesitated, not immediately agreeing or denying.

"This can't be!" Pei Jinfan, who proposed to cut resources, spoke first, and he pointed at Pei Ruxi, "Second brother, you don't care about your daughter! Look at her, bring a group of people here to make trouble, there are no rules at all! If I were you, two slaps greeted her in the face, and I made sure she was more obedient than a dog!"

The unruly Pei Ruxi looked at Pei Jinfan, remembered his appearance and what he said, and said with amplification: "There is no rule in the patriarchal law that I can't come here to raise doubts. My brothers and sisters of my own clan and I were able to stand here because the patriarch allowed us to come in. You are not a patriarch or an elder, and you have no position to accuse me of informality. ”

She undoubtedly poked Pei Jinfan's sore spot, Pei Jinfan raised his hand and slapped it with a translucent earthy yellow slap, and said angrily: "Listen, what a sharp-toothed junior, he actually dares to collide with the elder! I have to teach you a lesson for your father today!"

The slap slapped Pei Ruxi's face, but an eggshell-shaped defensive prohibition appeared on Pei Ruxi's body, stopping the slap.

She was wearing a forehead ornament given by her ancestors, and the forehead ornament was a defensive magic weapon, even if Pei Xiangrong in the early stage of foundation building made a move, he would not be able to break her defense for a while, let alone a slap.

Pei Jinfan, who failed to slap his face, finally noticed that Pei Ruxi's forehead ornament was a magic weapon, and at first he thought that Pei Xiangrong was generous and spoiled his daughter, but Pei Ruxi stayed at home, why did Pei Xiangrong give her a good magic weapon?

Then, when he saw Pei Ruxi's provocative eyes, he suddenly remembered that this girl had a seventh-degree water spirit root, and when she was promoted to the second level of qi refining, she would get the magic weapon given by the ancestor.

The ancestors doted on her.

So Pei Jinlun tolerated her bringing a group of children to the ancestral hall to ask for an explanation, and she was embarrassed and did not scold her.

Pei Ruxi had no fear, and said to Pei Jinfan: "This defensive magic weapon was given to me by my ancestors, and you can teach me a lesson if you break the defense." ”

The question is, do you dare to break my defensive ban?

Her eyes were written with questions, and the answers were written: You don't dare.

Pei Jinfan understood her eyes, was so angry that he smashed the table with a palm, and reprimanded Pei Xiangrong: "You didn't teach your daughter to respect the elders?"

Pei Xiangrong said: "Teach, you also saw that my daughter walked in and greeted her elders." You want to teach her instead of me, I didn't stop you, and my daughter didn't stop you from teaching her, right? She is very well-behaved, otherwise the ancestor would not have specially given her a magic weapon. ”

Who dares to refute the good recognized by the ancestors?

Pei Jinfan didn't dare.

But Pei Jinfan refused to let go of Pei Ruxi, and said viciously: "Big brother, these little guys don't cultivate well, but they swarm to the ancestral hall to prevent us from discussing clan affairs, and if we don't punish them harshly, I am afraid that they will turn the sky upside down in the future!"

"I allowed them in, and it didn't violate the patriarchal law for them to ask the clan for an explanation. Pei Jinlun was happy to see Pei Jinfan deflated on Pei Ruxi, and said with a smile, "Punishment cannot be punished." ”

"They want resources, and they won't give them resources this year!" Pei Jinfan said.

When the words fell, Pei Yuxia and the others cast angry glances and hated him.

Pei Jinlun also felt impatient, and a forbidden technique sealed Pei Jinfan's mouth, not forgetting to fix his body, and said: "You don't understand the patriarchal law, don't mess around in front of everyone." ”

Pei Jinfan was forced to be quiet.

Pei Yuxia in the hall watched Pei Jinfan's eyes move, but he couldn't move, he couldn't speak, and he almost laughed.

Pei Chenglie couldn't hold back his laughter, and Ah Bao couldn't hold back either.

The two boys laughed, and they were also silenced by Pei Jinlun halfway through the laughter.

Pei Jinlun said: "Silence!"

He cleared his throat and said in a deep voice, "Fang Cai, the second elder suggested that the cultivation resources given by the clan to the boys this year be reduced by one-sixth, and the cultivation resources of the girls should be reduced by one-sixth instead of one-third. I decided to take the suggestion. Do the girls have any objections?"

"I have no objection!" Pei Yuxia was the first to speak.

"Me neither!" Pei Asi said.

Pei Xiangrong's suggestion was in favor of the girls, and the girls generally had no objections.

Pei Jinlun unlocked Pei Chenglie and Ah Bao's forbidden speech technique, and asked, "Do the boys have any objections?"

Pei Chenglie didn't care: "No! I've already said it, it's okay if I give all my resources to Pei Ruxi." ”

Ah Bao punched him again, and said angrily: "You shameless thief! I said I didn't want resources first, and you robbed me again!"

Pei Jinlun forcibly separated Ah Bao and Pei Chenglie, who were about to start fighting, and asked Xiao Zhi: "What about you? Are you also willing to give one-sixth of your resources to the girl?"

Xiao Zhi hesitated and did not answer immediately.

This is exactly the reaction that Pei Jinlun and Pei Xiangrong want to see: the clan must cut resources, and the fairness demanded by the girl requires the boy to give up his interests, is the boy willing to let it?

They were forcing Xiao Zhi to choose between fairness and profit, and they were also banging on the side branch executives sitting in the hall.

Once the side branch asks the clan to treat the side branch and the lineage fairly, it will inevitably touch the interests of the lineage, making the patriarch and the sixth uncle from the lineage dissatisfied.

Let's put Pei Xiangrong on the side, how can he win the alliance of the two foundation building monks alone?

However, adults will intrigue for the sake of profit, but children are naïve.

The child has the courage to come to the ancestral hall to ask for an explanation, and also has a pure heart to pursue fairness and justice.

Xiao Zhi said: "I ......"

At the beginning of the words, the "no objection" in the back was interrupted by Pei Ruxi before he could say it, "Don't be in a hurry to express your position, I have something to ask the patriarch and elders." ”

"Good. ”

Xiao Zhi obeyed Pei Ruxi's instructions without thinking.

Pei Ruxi raised his head and asked the patriarch sitting on the main seat: "The resources for cultivation come from the clan allocation, there is no willingness to give it to others, only whether the clan is willing to give it!" The patriarch asked Brother Xiaozhi if he was willing to give up resources, does this sentence mean that the clan refuses to give resources to the girls? If not, please ask the patriarch to change his words. ”

After her reminder, Xiao Zhi suddenly understood, and Pei Yuxia also knew why Xiao Zhi hesitated, and the two showed an expression of being deceived by adults, and glared at the patriarch angrily.

The adult's dirty thoughts were punctured, the patriarch touched his chin a little embarrassed, and heard Pei Ruxi say again: "Patriarch, don't forget that there is also the problem of unfair distribution of resources between the side branches and descendants. ”

Pei Jinlun has not forgotten this matter, but the decision to reduce the resources of the side branch cannot be changed, unless the ancestor opens his mouth.

Pei Jinlun looked at Pei Xiangrong, then at the sixth uncle who closed his eyes and recuperated, and said thoughtfully: "As in the past, niece, you are not yet fourteen years old, regardless of gender and origin, the resources given to you by the clan this year will only be reduced by one-sixth, and next year will be discussed." ”

Is this a compromise from the clan to us?

Pei Yuxia jumped up with joy and cheered: "Win! We won!"

"Not yet. Pei Ruxi said calmly, she stared at the patriarch, "May I ask the patriarch, will the clan treat us differently next year or will it maintain fairness and justice this year? What about the year after tomorrow? What about the year after tomorrow?"

"Rest assured, from this year to the next ten years, the clan will remain fair and just. Pei Jinlun made a promise, "Ten years later, the matter will be decided in ten years." ”

Xiao Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.

Pei Yuxia, Pei Asi and others couldn't control their excitement and cheered for the hard-won fair treatment.

Pei Ruxi, who led everyone to seek justice, also relaxed and smiled happily.
