Chapter 587 Cumbersome Etiquette

Wen Xu didn't know the situation of the Chen family at this moment, because he was walking in the ancestral hall now. Although it was a formality, Wen Xu's heart was so painful. It was probably to let Wen Xu know the feelings of the Chen family. He would immediately feel empathy.

Originally, Wen Xu wanted to build an ancestral temple, and everyone went to pay tribute to their parents and ancestors, etc. It was a place to express grief and did not think too much about it.

Unexpectedly, after the old Taoist came, the so-called sacrificial ceremony before the marriage came so complicated. However, the old Taoist with Wen Xu had a serious and stern face and said that Wen Xu was Changlang, so the sacrificial ceremony was careless.

Changlang actually means the next generation of clan leader in the clan. In the past, clan leader was generally young and of seniority. At least one of the seniority was high enough, the second was to have an official position, or something like that. Anyway, that's it.

Wen Xu felt that the old Taoist was deliberately messing with him, because other than him, no one could think of such complicated etiquette. Only this vulgar old man could think of so many attractions after reading too much, and it also made a group of old brothers admire him. Even the silly and silly Grandpa Jiu looked solemn when he stood on Wen Xu's side.

Wen Xu was thinking a little bit out of this. This is not that the old Taoist wants to make trouble for Wen Xu himself, but that the old sacrificial etiquette should be like this. Many things that have been passed down for thousands of years are Zheng Zheng. When sacrificing, it is not something that makes you feel comfortable. The ancient saying says that the major affairs of the country lies in the Rong and the Sacrifice, which means that the country is considered a major event, is war and sacrifice. Therefore, this set of etiquette first considers the question of solemnity or not. Who cares whether you are comfortable or not?!

Through sacrifice, you can feel the power of your ancestors, and this is the key point!

Some people may say that if you have the power of a hair, it is just a bunch of wooden signs!

Then you are very wrong. The Chinese people who were prevalent in clans before can be said to be the most difficult nation in the world to assimilate. Just like a newspaper reported it when the founding of the country, the old Chinese had to send their bodies back to the ancestral grave for burial after they died. This is the power of the clan. It has to be said that the power of the clan in gathering bloodlines in the long river of Chinese history cannot be ignored and is also extremely powerful.

Since he went to the clan, he did not need to be assimilated in Europe and the United States. Now that Chinese people immigrate to Europe and the United States, the so-called elite class’s preferred destination is not China Street, but white communities. They immigrate to get rid of the name Chinese.

Look at the TV series filmed in China for Chinese people to watch. There are Michael in it, and the Chinese face is Diana and Robert, or a few sentences of English are placed in the previous sentence. I think it is a decent thing. I can't help but want to even dye my yellow skin white. There are many people who change their names and surnames.

Of course, the clan is not without dross. Everything has two sides, such as clan power instead of legal power. For example, Wen Xu is standing in the ancestral temple, kneeling over and over again, and worshiping over and over for half an hour, and it seems like he is disbanded.

In a word, the ceremony was very long and tedious, and Wen Xu felt that he was very hurt!

After finally getting this set off, Wen Xu immediately left the door of the hall and sat down on the steps, feeling exhausted and panting like a dog.

"You are so old that you can't get through this little thing?" The old Taoist said disdainfully when he saw Wen Xu's appearance.

Wen Xu looked up at the old man and said, "You don't feel hurt when you stand and speak. You can't stand up, kneel down and kowtow, and then stand up for forty minutes?"

After a while, Wen Xu ran for more than ten kilometers on the treadmill in the gym, and his clothes were almost twisted out of water.

Wen Xu said while pulling open the collar of the sacrificial robe and found that the clothes inside were almost wet. The sacrificial robe was actually a Confucian robe, probably the regular robe of the Ming Dynasty. Anyway, Wenjia Village is rich now, so these people can make a lot of trouble. Older people like them who come to guard the ancestral temple voluntarily, except for random thoughts every day, what else can I do?

While carrying the clothes and slapping himself in the wind, Wen Xu asked the old man: "Tell me, did you deliberately mess with me?"

The old Taoist said with disgust: "I'm full and I'm over. Besides, I'll have such a big deal to deal with you, kid. Come here early tomorrow. I haven't practiced boxing and kicking for ten days, so don't be unfamiliar!"

After saying that, the old Taoist walked away with his hands behind his back.

Wen Xu looked at the old man's back and replied, "If you want to beat me up openly, just say it!"

The old Taoist didn't know how to talk, so he left with his hands behind his back and wearing a new royal blue eight-treasure Taoist robe.

Wen Xu sat down and rested for a while before he came to his senses. He got married tomorrow morning! He was so depressed that he heard that several old brothers had sorted out the sacrificial things and returned to his position and walked out.

"The old man is good, the old man is good!"

The one who spoke was Grandpa Jiu, and the old man was also very strange. Except for the things that were sticking to his ancestors, everything else was a pot of paste. Now he actually praised the old Taoist.

"Nine Ancestor! Uncle is getting married tomorrow," a warm nephew reminded.

Grandpa Jiu looked at Wen Xu and immediately became confused again. He looked at Wen Xu who was sitting on the ground with a curious look on his face. After thinking for a while, he asked in confusion: "Renting, are you going to take a concubine?"

After saying that, he scratched his head and said to himself: "When will the government open up taking concubines?"

You are not unaware that Wen Xu heard this, the black lines on his forehead were almost covered with his face, and he hurriedly said, "Grandpa Jiu, this is the first time I got married and didn't take a concubine!"

Grandpa Jiu looked at Wen Xu and continued to look at Wen Xu with a puzzled little look. After looking up and down for a while, he said: "That's not you getting married! Haven't you been married? I remember that he was the daughter of Chen Laozao in Chenjiagou. I was still the emcee that day!"

"I'm getting married, I'm getting married tomorrow!" Wen Xu said again.

When Grandpa Jiu heard this, he immediately said seriously: "Then he should take a concubine!"

Wen Xu was speechless and thought to himself: I'm fine and I'm talking to the old man. He has a bad mind and he still talks about this with him. Isn't that too much of a bad mind?

So he had to nodded and followed the old man's words: "Well, take a concubine, I'll give me a couple more drinks tomorrow!"

When Grandpa Jiu heard this, he was very satisfied and stroked a white beard on his chin: "It's good to take a concubine, it's good to take a concubine. It's not that I said you, Renting, your lineage is not very good. You can only have the same seed until now, how can this be done! Look at me, when I'm fine, I will use my strength, and the woman's belly must not be filled with breath..."

Without saying a few words, let alone Wen Xu, no one present could listen. Jiu Ye is an elder, so how can everyone not feel uncomfortable about his private words? Moreover, the more the old man talks, the less he has the right one. When I hear about the elder's sexual intercourse, everyone is very healthy. How upsetting is that!

"Ancestor Nine, let's go to the front yard to have a look. Don't think about changing your chess here again!"

So everyone who couldn't help but take Wen Jiuye away, leaving Wen Xu alone to sit on the platform team, covering his face slowly and recovering blood! This grandfather's generation's sex life was too lethal! He was not only upset but also nauseous!

After resting for more than ten minutes, Wen Xu felt that his blood had almost returned, so he got up to the vestibule, changed his sacrificial robe, washed away the well water in the yard, changed back to the clothes he had when he came, and then wrapped the sacrificial robe and prepared to take it back to wash.

After taking care of all this, it was completely dark. Wen Xu arrived at the front yard and saw a group of old men, listened to storytelling and chess playing. I don’t know when these old men learned to play birds. There were seven or eight bird cages in the yard. Wen Xu didn’t know what kind of birds they were, but the sounds were very nice.

Wen Xu took a rough look and didn't notice that the old Taoist and other old men in the yard were there, except Grandpa Jiu was missing. Besides, even if Wen Xu knew, he wouldn't care. Although the old man had a little abnormal mind, it was not easy to get him out of the way!

The old men's attention is not on the birds now, they are all entertaining themselves. The only thing in the yard is the female bully lying down from a cage. It is now staring at the golden eyes and looking at the birds jumping around in the cage. I don't know if it is intended to use it to plug the gap between the teeth or what to do, but it is just staring at it stupidly.

"Shixu, I have a box of rice for you!" A clan brother saw Wenxu coming and pointed at a box of rice on the table. All the others were eaten up, leaving only a box with a lid on the table.

The old men's food is now delivered, and there are three meals a day and people pay attention to nutrition. Let's put it this way, the ancestral hall is becoming more and more like a nursing home.

"No need, I'd better go back and eat." Wen Xu just wants to eat something light now.

After saying hello to these people, Wen Xu led Dazhu out of the door and rode it to the house. At this time, Wen Xu didn't know that the Chen family had left. Because he was afraid of seeing them, Wen Xu naturally slowly swayed home, for fear that he would be too early to get home and be blocked by these people at the door.

When he arrived at the entrance of the village, Wen Xu heard someone discussing this matter, and then he realized that the Chen family had left.

"Guang'an, are the people in the Chen family you mentioned leaving?"

When Wen Guangan saw Wen Xu leading Dazhu over, he immediately said, "That's not! And these people made jokes when they arrived in the town!"

Before Wen Xu could ask, Wen Guang'an smiled and said, "These people actually started fighting themselves!"

Wen Xu didn't know the whole story of this matter, so he asked curiously: "What's wrong?"

Before Wen Guang'an said, Wen Yuangang said: "It's not because of medical expenses. Now that the hospital is in once, there are no two or three hundred people, it is possible to come out? The total number of people in the 20 to 30 is 1,000 or more. None of them want other families to pay more, and their families to pay less, and then they started to take action in the hospital and were arrested by the police station in the town..."

For the people in Wenjia Village, although these people from the Chen family were only seeing each other today, they were very tired of it. Now that they heard that they had a bad reputation and went to the police station, they naturally wanted to gloat. Not to mention Wenjia Village, the whole village is probably spreading now.

Good things don’t go out and bad things spread thousands of miles away!

I guess all the more informed people have heard of it now. A group of people from Chenjiagou went to the three tables of people for two hundred yuan.

The four words of reciprocity in the countryside are the key to the exchange. When you come and go, everyone pays equally. Generally, it is only possible to get back and forth. Now, there are indeed not a few people in the countryside, but there are three tables of people who come to two hundred yuan at once? Who doesn’t laugh at it? Who will be happy to be the one who is spreading the head of the family, let alone many people hold banquets to take back the money they have released.

Wen Xu didn't mean to gloat when he heard this. He put a big brown on his yard and walked towards his yard. He originally planned to take passers-by to be like these relatives, but now after hearing that they entered the police station, they didn't feel that they could relieve their hatred. They had too few dealings.

Wen Xu was about to walk home when he suddenly heard a noise coming from the yard next to him! That guy was so lively!

"Unfilial! You unfilial descendants!"
