Chapter 185 Are we relatives?

Everyone has their own position and identity.

It was not until the age of 44 that Xu Xuejun truly completed his transformation into a husband and father.

But Xu Qingshan would not let him say that solemn apology.

Because once some words are spoken in this way, a gap will appear in the relationship between father and son.

This is often the case when maintaining long-term relationships between people.

If you give me an inch, I will give you three points.

Xu Qingshan is well aware of this.

Xu Xuejun was stunned for a moment, then laughed, took the chewing gum from his son's hand, opened the tin foil, and put it in his mouth.

"Come on, get off the car, and don't disturb your grandma's rest."

Xu Xuejun opened the car door and went to open it first.

After a busy day, the family goes home and tidies up before falling asleep soundly.

Xu Xuejun was so stimulated that he untied his emotional knot, Xu Qingshan cleared up the last direct hidden danger, and the whole family temporarily stayed away from Yunzhang, which had a bad atmosphere. Almost the whole family was moving in a better direction.

As for Lin Yuehua?
After she vented her anger today, she was completely relaxed and fell asleep in the car just now. After getting off the car, she went back to the room in a daze and lay down and fell asleep again.

The next day, Xu Qingshan and his family attended the Yunyang Xu family's ceremony again.

The scale of the ancestral hall of the Xu family in Yunyang is much larger than that of Laokeng Village.

The appearance of Xu Qingshan this year also brought honor to the Yunyang Xu family.

However, although the Yunyang Xu Clan Ancestral Hall also opened the middle door to allow Xu Qingshan to enter the hall and be included in the register, another page was opened and the ceremony was quite lively.

But in fact, Xu Qingshan was not the only one who participated.

It’s just that Xu Qingshan has those extra rituals.

This year, all the Xu people from Yunzhang County came. There were about two hundred people from the same class as Xu Qingshan, which could be considered a large clan.

Those who can come here today have all been admitted to university.

Top scorers like Xu Qingshan received special medals and plaques, as well as a 500,000 yuan scholarship funded by the Yunyang Xu Foundation. In addition, some overseas Chinese from the Xu clan and big bosses doing business in various places supplemented most of the special scholarships after hearing the news, and they actually put together a million yuan in scholarships.

As for other students, there are some too.

Only Xu Qingshan was admitted to Peking University and Tsinghua University. In previous years, if there were any, the scholarships for Peking University and Tsinghua University would be 20,000 yuan, the scholarship for Peking University and Tsinghua University plus the provincial champion in a single subject would be 30,000 yuan, the scholarship for the city champion would be 100,000 yuan, and the scholarship for the county champion would be 50,000 yuan.

Other 985 universities and the top 211 universities all offer scholarships of 1 yuan.

The remaining 211 universities offer a scholarship of 8000 yuan.

For undergraduate colleges, the scholarship is 4000.

For vocational colleges, the scholarship is 2000.

All I can say is that the system is strict.

This may seem like a lot of money, but it is actually a lot.

Some outstanding students from ordinary families can complete college with this money. For example, for 985 students, it is basically enough for a whole year's living expenses.

Xu Qingshan's special case even alarmed overseas relatives.

However, the Yunyang Xu family will not stop just because they have allocated 500,000 yuan to Xu Qingshan. As a large clan foundation with tens of thousands of relatives, every year there will be relatives with successful businesses and careers who donate money to the foundation.

The foundation is in turn managed by a special clan committee.

The members of these committees are all outstanding talents from all over the place. For a large clan with tens of thousands of people, it is not difficult for them to produce some talented agents.

They will also do their best when managing the clan foundation.

As for 2009, according to the fund annual report announcement that Xu Qingshan had just heard, the Xu Clan Foundation still has a surplus of more than 9000 million yuan, nearly million yuan.

It is indeed a bit absurdly rich.

But this is just funding, and other industries that can complete capital turnover are not included.

After leading the Xu family, Xu Qingshan looked at the plaque with his name on it that read "Top Scorer" hung in the taller ancestral hall. He also added contact information to some clan members who had prestige and authority in various places.

Several of the relatives who worked in ministries and commissions warmly invited Xu Qingshan and others to have dinner at their homes when they arrived in Beijing.

A bonus ceremony brings countless resources.

The Yunyang Xu family worked hard to get a million-dollar scholarship this time in order to make a name for themselves, because in the land of Yunzhang, clan reputation is also a key point of competition among the major clans.

This is also because society has become much more stable since entering the 21st century.

If it were a few decades ago.

In the armed conflicts among the major clans in Yunzhang County, there were various ways of fighting, such as raising flags.

Seriously speaking, the scale of clan fights in southern Fujian far exceeds the various wars in the Warring States Period. There were even fights between two clans that were so large in scale and involved so many types of weapons that they were recorded in the county annals.

Using knives and guns is just common.

After Xu Qingshan received the things from the Xu family, he turned around and went to receive the things from the Lin family.

The Lin clan in Yunzhang County is no smaller than the Xu clan, and is even more influential and more traditional.

The Yunzhang Lin family is not only related to the Longjiang Lin family, but the status of their ancestral hall is also similar to that of the Confucius Temple and Confucian Temple in the county. Even if you are not a student of the Lin family, you will go to the Lin ancestral hall from time to time to burn incense to Lin Taishigong.

"Today I think you will have to stand in front and burn incense again."

Lin Yuehua said happily.

She is in high spirits today.

Her son was so handsome the other day, which really made her proud.

Xu Xuejun was accompanying his mother-in-law. His whole aura had changed quietly and his temper had become much brighter.

"Isn't it a bad idea for Comrade Xu to put his name in the Lin family's ancestral temple?"

Xu Qingshan felt that he couldn't quite understand it.

Isn't it embarrassing for a person with the surname Xu to put the plaque of someone else named Lin?

"It's okay. Just add a prefix to your plaque: Xu Qingshan, son of Yunzhang Lin's daughter (Yuehua). It looks pretty good now."

Lin Yuehua was very proud.

"But, Mom, why is your name in brackets?"

"This is the only way to make me look like the protagonist!"

"You are the protagonist, why do I have to go to the temple to worship?"

"Because you got the score!"

Looking at his righteous mother, Xu Qingshan was speechless. As expected, the style of chatting with her was completely different from that with his father.

Also good.

A mother like this, even though she is almost 40, still has a kind of beauty that has not been polluted by wisdom.

"By the way, this year there are two other students from the Lin family who are admitted to Peking University and Tsinghua University, but one of the girls doesn't have the last name Lin." Lin Yuehua suddenly remembered something and said to Xu Qingshan beside her.

"Oh."

Xu Qingshan didn't particularly care.

His mind was now beginning to come back to thinking about the problems he encountered in algebraic geometry.

"Let's go, let's go into the ancestral square, sign in there and get a seat."

Lin Yuehua pushed Xu Qingshan away.

The Lin family's ceremony is a bit more interesting, as each child has a seat and can watch the performance, and a parent can sit next to the child, usually the one in the family whose surname is Lin.

It was also common practice for Xu Qingshan to be admitted into the Lin family along with his mother.

Even if he was not the top scorer, people would still give him money.

But when Xu Qingshan signed in at the check-in counter, he saw a name under his own that was so familiar that it seemed impossible to him.

"Jiang Huanxi?"

Xu Qingshan recited it subconsciously.

"Hmm? Do you know him?"

Lin Yuehua was standing nearby with a small bag and various small gifts, and came over to look at her dazed son.

"This is your aunt Ying's daughter. Your aunt Ying and I were classmates. Later, she married and moved to the city. I have been too busy in the past few years. I have been focusing on you and your grandmother. The rest of the time, I was busy making money and didn't have the courage to meet her."

Lin Yuehua talked in a rambling manner.

She is just quick-witted and likes to talk. Generally speaking, people like her don't have bad intentions.

Because many of the things they say come out without thinking, without beating around the bush, and they focus on expressing their true feelings.

"I think they know each other, right?"

Xu Qingshan still wasn't sure.

Although, Jiang Huanxi and Tsinghua and Peking University, these two pieces of information are difficult to repeat.

But who can say for sure?

Anyway, Xu Qingshan had known Jiang Huanxi for so long, but he didn't know that her mother was from Yunzhang.
Xu Qingshan felt mixed emotions for a moment.

"Come on, let's go. I'll introduce you to your aunt Ying's daughter. If you both are in Huaqing and Peking University, you can marry her. No, there's also Tong Tong."

Lin Yuehua was muttering to herself, but suddenly thought of Tong Tong.

"Then let's take a look. After all, I haven't met Qingying's daughter yet. If I had to choose, I still prefer Tong Tong."

Xu Qingshan curled his lips helplessly.

"Mom, there are so many people here, be careful with your words. What are you talking about? It will be so embarrassing if others find out about it."

"Why are you so embarrassed? If you can give me a big fat boy while you are in college, I will take a leave of absence and go to hold the baby for you, hey."

Lin Yuehua's expression was agitated. She was also a person with wild imagination and she acted on whatever she thought.

Xu Qingshan shook his head helplessly.

The mother and son walked towards their seats. Xu Qingshan's seat was in the first row. Unlike the others, there was a table covered with a red cloth in the first row.

From a distance, Xu Qingshan saw two figures sitting quietly next to his and his mother's seats.

Okay, kill the suspense.

Just by looking at the back, Xu Qingshan knew that this was the Jiang Huanxi he knew.

As soon as Xu Qingshan and Lin Yuehua walked over, Lin Yuehua excitedly reached out to pat Lin Qingying on the back.

Lin Qingying turned her head weakly and looked at Lin Yuehua.

"Ah! Ah Hua! Long time no see! I've been sitting here for a long time, knowing you were coming over. I didn't expect Qingshan to be your son."

Lin Qingying stood up in surprise and hugged Lin Yuehua.

Women are always so surprised when they meet each other.

After Xu Qingshan called her "Auntie" sweetly, he complained silently in his heart.

"Of course not! Don't you see who I am? How could the son of Lin Yuehua be bad? He inherited his ability to study from me!"

Lin Yuehua took Lin Qingying's hand and sat next to her.

"But Ahua, you only scored 16 points in math before."

"Aying, if you don't mention this, we are still good sisters."

"Okay, but you're also good at Chinese."

"Anyway, I'm the one taking care of the child. Qingshan, why are you standing? Sit down."

Lin Yuehua saw her son still standing there.

"My seat is over there."

Xu Qingshan pointed speechlessly behind Lin Yuehua who was blocking his way.

"Qingshan, Auntie wants to thank you very much. I heard Xiaoxi say a lot about how you helped her. When you return to Longjiang, you must come to our house for dinner more often."

Lin Qingying's beautiful eyes shone brightly. She had been observing Xu Qingshan since Lin Yuehua came over to say hello.

This young man is very energetic and has regular facial features.

In addition, Jiang Huanxi always spoke well of Xu Qingshan at home, so Lin Qingying had a very good preconceived impression of him.

just
"Auntie, I didn't do anything. It was just a small favor."

Xu Qingshan smiled modestly.

But he always felt that the Aunt Ying in front of him looked at him as if she was looking at her son-in-law.

"Then I'll sit over there first."

Xu Qingshan smiled generously and walked towards Jiang Huanxi.

Since Lin Yuehua spoke, the little ostrich glanced at Xu Qingshan in panic, and then hid quietly behind its mother. It greeted Lin Yuehua weakly and retracted its head.

But Lin Yuehua, who was so excited just now, didn't hear the little girl's greeting at all, and she didn't even see the little girl.

It was only when Xu Qingshan walked over that he saw Jiang Huanxi, who was shrinking nervously.

"Huanxi, long time no see."

"Hmm, long time no see."

Jiang Huanxi's face turned red.

"I didn't expect that we are relatives."

Ah, it seems that I will not be able to recover my daily income until tomorrow, so I can only earn 8 yuan today.
