Chapter 279 (1/2)
indeed.
On the day of restoring the genealogy, all the men in the village gathered at the gate of the ancestral hall.
Not surprisingly, Xia Ying and Fu sister-in-law are two-point red in the green forest. Except for their mother and daughter, all of them are men!
Once again, seeing them standing majestically beside Gu Tuo, the exclusion and displeasure of the men in the village have faded a lot.
Such a picture to see more, they gradually numb.
Seeing the little daughter-in-law walking side by side with Gu Tuo, the old patriarch jerked his wrinkled face and immediately yelled: ”the ancestral hall is important. In such a serious situation, who would you like to laugh? Don't laugh
Xia Ying quickly put away her smile. ”Second uncle, I'm sorry. I was wrong.”
”Well, you still know how to behave!”
But in her body to find a point of face, the old patriarch was in a lot of comfortable mood, he turned his head. ”Well, good time, open ancestral hall, please genealogy!”
To tell you the truth, Xia Ying didn't like this clan system very much.
Especially now, looking at the old patriarch, just because of his identity as the patriarch, he sometimes gives orders in the village and ignores the women in the village. She does not like the feudal system which is extremely harsh to women.
However, when a thick genealogy was invited out and the old patriarch put on the glasses, he solemnly opened the genealogy, found the page where Gu Ji was located, and then wrote the names that had been painted out again, Xia Ying felt a kind of unspeakable dignified feeling.
In this era of farming, is patriarchal clan the best choice? At least, clan cohesion has never been higher.
She is now in it, watching people of the same surname get together, and this power alone makes her feel in awe.
She could not help but hold her breath and looked solemnly at the old patriarch filling in the names one by one, and then Gu Tuo and her names were also written on it, followed by the names of the three brothers and sisters of Taki.
When the ink is dry, the old patriarch closes the genealogy.
”Well, the revision of the genealogy is over!”
With a loud cry, he quickly put the genealogy back to its original position, and then all the people saluted and perfumed the memorial tablets of the ancestors, which was the end of the matter.
In fact, it is a work of adding a page to a book, but 90% of the time is spent in the early stage of worshipping, inviting genealogies, and later releasing genealogies, apologizing to disturbed ancestors and offering incense.
So half a day has already passed when we have finished this matter!
Come out of the ancestral hall again, the sun is already at noon!
It took ten minutes to get down to business. The rest of the time was spent on red tape. Xia Ying immediately loathed the old society, which was more important than everything else.
It's so easy to get out of the ancestral hall. Xia yingben thinks that now she is liberated!
She's going home to sleep in!
However, as soon as this idea came to mind, the old patriarch had already come to Gu Tuo's side.
He still didn't look at Xia Ying. He just talked to Gu Tuo: ”brother Tuo, we should have held a banquet for the whole village when you came back that day. But I was afraid you were too tired at that time, and I couldn't bear to bother you any more. But now I think you all have a rest, and now that the genealogy is finished, you can go to my house and have a glass of wine to celebrate it. ”
”It's not urgent. After I have collected all the bones of the others in Guji and buried them, we will have a three-day running water mat together Gu Tuo said.
The old patriarch's face smoked again, and he nodded hastily. ”Well! Well, that's good. It's good. That I'll go first
He went away in a hurry.
