Crossing the Homeland

Chapter 440

The Xia family is not considered a big family, nor is it a famous family. Although the genealogy also shows who was a high-ranking official in the ancestors, anyone with a discerning eye can tell that they belonged to the past.Although the clan is not big and there are no officials, there are also one or two scholar scholars in the clan. The current patriarch is Xia Songbai, the head of the clan, who bears the fame of scholar and is also one of the first few scholars in Shuanghe Village to pass the examination. , the family prestige is quite high.

A lot of people had gathered in front of the ancestral hall. When they heard the sound of horseshoes, they all looked back and were all taken aback.Several elders and prominent figures in the clan have already arrived, and they are sitting in the inner ancestral hall to discuss matters, but this...

The clansmen who were escorted immediately trotted over: "May I ask what is in the carriage...?"

A few errand boys had already jumped out of the car, and the clansmen who were escorting them saw that there were still servants, so they stood aside.Seeing the boy lift the car curtain, a young woman and an old man smiled gently at him, only to hear the woman say: "My father is Xia Hongpeng, Jiufang."

The people who received him opened their mouths in shock.

Who in Shuanghe Village doesn't know Xia Hongpeng, that rotten gambler who owed a butt of gambling debts and died, and his own wife also went with him!Xia Hongpeng is not a thing, so he can't give birth to a son!This matter has been laughed at by them for a long time, but who is this well-dressed girl in front of them?
"Oh my goodness, girl Yan is here!" Hearing the commotion outside, Hong surrounded her curiously, but what she saw was so terrible that she was too scared to recognize her.

Xia Junyan nodded slightly, and slowly stepped down from the carriage on the low stool brought by the boy.There are two white jade hairpins on her head, and the butterfly steps between her temples are swaying slightly, and she is wearing a cape of fox fur in lake blue satin, which looks very luxurious.

Just now, the Hong family dared to say something from a distance, but now that Xia Junyan is standing in front of her, she can't say a word. I just feel that her niece is completely different from the previous few times I met her. .

Xia Junyan nodded reservedly at Hong Shi, and said to Aunt Six, and then said nothing else.Several shopkeepers had already got out of the car and stood respectfully behind her. Seeing Xia Junyan's signal, they immediately ordered the staff to beat the gong.

Xia Laoliu, before the spirit of the inner ancestral hall, was talking about the adoption, and before Xia Junyan came, he had already talked with the patriarch almost, and all he needed was a kowtow and everything would be fine.Suddenly hearing the commotion outside, the patriarch Xia Songbai frowned immediately: "What happened?"

A group of people hurriedly said: "Xia Hongpeng's daughter is here! She even brought a plaque!"

Xia Laoliu immediately smiled and said: "What did I say, this girl is filial piety. I also miss her filial piety, and I can't bear her to be alone without a brother to help."

Xia Songbai had an extremely bad impression of Xia Hongpeng, thinking that the gentleman's gambling had tarnished the reputation of the Xia family, and by the way, he didn't have much affection for his daughter.It's just that people come to worship the ancestors, and it is related to the adoption, so naturally we have to accommodate one or two things.

It's just a woman from the clan, and not a big person, Xia Songbai went with Xia Laoliu, an old man from the clan.

"Third uncle, please." Xia Laoliu didn't dare to take the big one, and lost half of his position.

Xia Junyan was standing outside, and the people around her were so curious that they died. After waiting for a long time, someone from the inner ancestral hall finally came out.Xia Laoliu looked proud. Those who could enter the inner ancestral hall were all prominent figures in the clan. When he came out of the ancestral hall, he naturally had a kind of dignity.

"Yan..." Xia Laoliu was about to show off, but was taken aback by Xia Junyan's posture, "This... who are these people?"

"Worshiping ancestors is a major event, and our master must treat it seriously when we come here."
