Xiaojiaxiu

Chapter 163
This day, the family had just finished breakfast, and Sanya and Siya were planning to go to Wu's house as usual.

"Little Six is ​​here! Come and sit in the room!" As soon as Mrs. Zhao walked to the door, she saw Little Six walking towards her house.

"Hello, Auntie! Is Siya at home?" Little Six greeted Mrs. Zhao with a smile on his face as usual.

"It's in Siya's room! I'm just about to go out!" Mrs. Zhao and Xiaoliuzi are already familiar with each other, so there is no need to go out of the way to greet him, and let him go into the house to find Siya. And she went on with her work.

"Brother Liu, what are you looking for from me?" Siya naturally heard the conversation between Mrs. Zhao and Little Liu in front of the door, and asked with a smile when she saw Little Liu coming in.

When the little six saw Siya and the sisters, they all greeted Siya with a smile, and then said to Siya: "Siya! Our Lord Wang invites your family to come over!"

"What is your master looking for from our family?" It makes sense to say that Mr. Wang is looking for their mother and daughter, but it is a bit strange that Mr. Wang is looking for his own mother and daughter.

"I don't know either! The butler knew that I was familiar with your family, so he let me come here!" Xiaoliuzi is very simple, and in his heart, no one is a bad person, so naturally everything will not be a bad thing .

"Oh! That's fine! You go back first, we'll go there when we're done!" Siya replied with a smile.

"Hey! Then I'll go first! It is said that there are a lot of people at home today, so I have to go back and get busy!" Seeing that the errands were finished, the little six left and went back to continue working on errands.

"Siya! This... Shall we go?" Da Ya asked worriedly.

Da Ya didn't know if it was because she was frightened by the previous series of things, but now whenever she encounters things, she always thinks about the bad side.

At this time, Mrs. Zhao also entered the house, and seeing the dignified faces of her daughters, she asked strangely, "Has Little Six left? What happened?"

"It is said that the master invited our mother and daughter to come over!" Erya replied.

"What does Landlord Wang invite our mother and daughter to do? Erya, is it about you!" Mrs. Zhao naturally thought of Erya first.

"No! I went to see Mrs. Wang and Miss yesterday, nothing happened!" Er Ya replied.

"Forget it! It's not a problem to guess like this. Erya, Siya, you two will come with me. Daya and Sanya, you two will take your younger brothers and sisters at home, and then go out when we come back!" Zhao ordered road.

After saying this, Mrs. Zhao went back to the house and changed into looser clothes, and took Erya and Siya to the front yard.

At this time, the ancestral hall of the Wang family specially built by the landlord Wang's family was already full of people.

The ancestral hall of the Wang family was built by the ancestors of the landlord Wang, and the first patriarch of the Wang family was the ancestor of the landlord Wang, so after that, the ancestral hall at home became a meeting place for the villagers.

"Old patriarch, do you think this arrangement is okay?" The village chief sitting on the chair on the right asked respectfully the old patriarch sitting in the main seat.

The old patriarch was almost 80 years old, and he was squinting at this time, wondering if he was dozing off or something.

The village chief spoke for a long time, but the old patriarch did not make a sound.The village chief coughed a few times in embarrassment, and thought, this old man will not give me face like this.

Although he was unhappy in his heart, the village head still couldn't show anything. After all, the old patriarch was not only the oldest in the clan, but he was also the previous village head, and his own village head was recommended by him.

Just when the village head was about to ask again, the old patriarch suddenly opened his eyes and said to the old master sitting below: "What do you think?"

In fact, the old master didn't intend to get involved in these matters at the beginning, but this matter is related to his three students after all, and it is not easy for him to hide quietly.

"I listened to what the village said!" Although the old master had taught in Wangcun's school for many years, he was not from Wangcun, so he said very self-aware.

After listening to the old master's words, the old patriarch nodded in agreement, and was very satisfied with the old master's performance.

Turning his head, the old patriarch put on a stern look.

"These people are almost here, are you going to inform me, or ask for my opinion?" The old patriarch's voice was not loud, but what he said revealed his extreme dissatisfaction with the village chief's actions.

"How can this be? Am I asking for your opinion?" Hearing what the old patriarch said, the village chief felt like he was about to sweat. If the old patriarch said this, his sin would be serious. .

In the past few years, the old patriarch has become less and less concerned about the affairs of the clan, so the village chief for a while forgot how powerful the old patriarch was before.

"Hmph!" The old patriarch snorted vaguely, which was a rebuttal to the village chief's words.

Ignoring the village chief, the old patriarch turned his gaze to the Landlord Wang standing beside him: "Where's your father who doesn't live up to expectations?"

The old patriarch's words were harsh, but everyone could hear the kindness behind the harsh words.

"Fifth Grandpa! My dad said he didn't care about these things long ago!" Landlord Wang replied respectfully with a smile.

"He will hide and idle. If he didn't want to be the village head, would he still use my old man to worry about these things today?" the old patriarch said dissatisfied.

"Yes! My father said it himself. He said that he is not as respected as the fifth grandpa, so he can't control these things!" Landlord Wang knew that the fifth grandpa didn't really blame his father, but just vented his inner feelings for the incumbent. The village chief was dissatisfied.

"You know how to pour me the ecstasy soup. Back then, if you knew what it was like now, my old man would have tied him up to be the village head!" the old patriarch muttered.

The village chief who was sitting on the side became more and more ugly when he heard what the old patriarch said. It was just that he had played some tricks at the beginning, so that the old patriarch and the people in the clan reluctantly let him be the patriarch, so He could only listen to what the old patriarch said.

"Master! Three scholars from this village have been invited!" At this time, the servant came back to talk.

Landlord Wang looked at the old patriarch sitting on the seat, and then said to the servant: "Come in, please!"

This ancient scholar was amazing. Although it is not necessary to bow down like greeting officials, ordinary people still have to salute when they meet.

When Wang Tuwen, Wu Sanlang and another scholar surnamed Wang walked in, all the people present, including the old patriarch, got up to greet them.

It was the first time for the three of them to receive such high-standard treatment, and they were slightly uncomfortable in their hearts.

According to the precedent, Wang Tuwen and another scholar surnamed Wang first bowed down to the ancestors of the Wang family, and after offering incense, they got up and sat down.

Wu Sanlang is a descendant of the Wu family. This is the ancestral hall of the Wang family, so he doesn't have to bow and bow.

The three of them were sitting there waiting for instructions from the village head and the old patriarch.

"This..." There must be someone below to preside over this matter, so the village head asked the old patriarch.

"I'm here too. I'm only in charge of the affairs of the Wang family. You can preside over the affairs of the village!" Although he was dissatisfied, three scholars suddenly appeared in the village, two of whom belonged to the Wang family. I am also happy to download.

"Yes!" The village head knew that such a matter had to be presided over by himself, the village head, and it was just a matter of etiquette.

"I asked you to come here today, and I want to discuss with you about the banquet!" After finishing speaking, the village head continued, "This village has not produced a scholar for many years, so this time we must have a good celebration. !"

Speaking of Qianwang Village and Houwang Village, Liang Xiucai was indeed the only one selected as a scholar in the past few years, but Liang Xiucai's family escaped from other places and lived in Houwang Village, so the village chief naturally took this Liang Xiucai Xiucai ignored it first.

When he said these words, the village head had a gentle smile on his face, which shows that the three talents in the village are really remarkable this time.

The three of Wang Tuwen had never encountered such a thing. When the official dispatch came to announce the good news last time, the village did not expect that one of these students would be selected as a scholar this time, so they didn't pay much attention to this matter.

It wasn't until the gongs from the officials knocked on the door of the house that the village chief hurried over with a group of people. In the end, it was Mrs. Wu who helped out with the cooking women from Houwang Village and bought These officials were entertained only after cooking with wine.

After the official sent away, the village chief and the clan members were naturally surprised and embarrassed.

After discussing with the village head and these people in the clan, no, it was decided that the village would contribute a piece of money to celebrate it well, and then let other villages see that their own village is amazing.

In the final analysis, these things can be said to have nothing to do with Wang Tuwen and the others.

"I'll listen to the arrangement of the village chief!" The three of them replied in unison.

"Okay! Okay! What a formidable young man! The three of you go back and make some preparations, and wait until the day after tomorrow!" The village chief was very satisfied with the performance of the three of them.

The three of them took their leave and left.

After the three left, only the old patriarch, the village head, the master and the landowner were left in the ancestral hall.

Seeing that the three students had already left, the master left as well. After all, he only took care of the school's one-acre land, and he didn't want to take care of other things, and he couldn't take care of them.

When Mrs. Zhao and Erya and Siya arrived at the front yard of the landlord's mansion, a servant took them to the ancestral hall of the Wang family.

In ancient times, a daughter-in-law was not eligible to visit her ancestors when she got married. She was only eligible to visit her ancestors when she gave birth to her husband's first son. At that time, the ancestors of the Wang family truly accepted the woman.

Mrs. Zhao has seven daughters in a row, but did not give birth to a son for the Wang family, so she is not qualified to worship the ancestors of the Wang family, so this is the first time she has come to the Wang family's ancestral hall.

"Kowtow to the old patriarch!" When they arrived at the ancestral hall, Mrs. Zhao first kowtowed to the old patriarch with Erya and Siya.

"That's all! That's all! It's better not to kowtow!" The old patriarch naturally knew about the fact that the Zhao family was suspended, so he said this.
