Chapter 0121 Patriarch(1/2)
After New Year's Eve, the train station suddenly became deserted. Qi Tongwei also experienced the feeling of taking a train home again after graduation this year.
There were only six beds in a sleeper carriage, including him, Qi Shan, Qi Yu, and Brother Le, a cat. I don’t know if there were too many empty seats or if the other beds were unoccupied.
After the train started, attendants came over from time to time to ask if they wanted to clean up, have something to eat or drink, and even reported the speed of the train and how long it would take to get to Yantai Station.
There are even several parking stations where stationmasters come up to greet you.
Qi Tongwei looked at Qi Shan and Qi Yu: "Didn't I tell you not to leak the news about me taking the train? What's going on?"
Qi Yu scratched his head: "I told the station master of Jingzhou Railway Station when I asked him to buy tickets for us, and he said that you specially told him to keep it secret."
Qi Tongwei looked at the unique silk bed sheets and duvet covers in his carriage and was a little speechless. In his position, sometimes just saying a word can really make people interpret it too much.
The last time he visited a school in a township, he had agreed to have a light meal in the cafeteria, but he had questions during the meal.
Whose school gives students all kinds of delicacies at noon? All the students who come to eat are in school uniforms and red scarves, and most of them are even good-looking female students. The entire school, including the toilets, is spotless.
The Constitution of Heaven is spoken with the mouth, and the law is followed by the words!
He suddenly understood why those people in ancient times would shout if they had a chance: "Princes, generals and ministers have the right to order!"
Because of your high position and authority, everyone around you will try their best to make you happy and flatter you. This feeling is so satisfying.
Touching Brother Le who was sleeping soundly in his pocket, Qi Tongwei quickly warned himself: "Calm down and don't drift! A true man stands between heaven and earth. He should nourish the righteousness of heaven and earth, do things aboveboard, be self-restrained, be cautious, guard his heart, and be clear-minded.
Nature, control yourself with the same mind as others!"
Finally, four hours later, we arrived at Yantai Station. As soon as we exited the station, several groups of people came to greet us.
"Governor Qi!"
"Director Qi!"
"Third brother!"
.......
The stationmaster of Yantai Station, the director of the Yantai Public Security Department, the eighth and ninth sons of Qijia Village.
Being blocked during the Chinese New Year, Qi Tongwei was a little helpless. After chatting with local parents and officials for a while, he left in Lao Ba Lao Jiu's car.
Qi Tongwei and Le Ge were sitting in Laoba's car. Qi Yun was sitting upright all the way, looking very nervous.
"Lele reminds you that we are still 30 kilometers away from Qijia Village and the journey is expected to take 40 minutes. Please go straight ahead!"
Miao Le got out of his pocket and was dumbfounded when he heard the navigation voice. He turned his head and looked at the shit shovel officer, examining it!
Qi Tongwei chuckled: "Laoba, your starry sky car is pretty good. It has leather interior, large navigation screen, and air conditioning!"
"Haha, Third Brother, it is true that Xingkong Automobile understands how our people think about buying a car. It's not just a show of comparison. If it doesn't look good, who will buy it?" Lao Ba said with a smile.
Then Qi Tongwei met Miao Le's increasingly solemn eyes and conveyed the message with his eyes: "Look, this is all done by An Yi. For a while, An Yi bought two quotas for the Xiongguo launch satellite from Mou Zhongzhong and borrowed their
The channel launched two navigation satellites, and he is probably the one who came up with this voice navigation!"
Qi Tongwei answered firmly. Even if he built the framework of the navigation system software and provided the voice package, he can't blame the person who made the knife if he committed a crime with a knife.
Comfort is a big problem!
Miao Le's eyes softened and he fell into deep thought. He had never heard of anyone at Starry Sky Technology who was good at making software and could do advanced technologies such as voice simulation.
Qi Tongwei quickly took out a can of yellow peaches from the bag at the back: "Brother Le, you slept all the way. You must be tired. Let's eat something."
When he saw the food, Miao Le swung his tail and started to move, too lazy to think about it.
"Wow!"
Qi Tongwei secretly breathed a sigh of relief and got through!
When he was still one kilometer away from the village entrance, Qi Tongwei was a little relaxed. It was better to stay at home. When he went out for inspection some time ago, some people directly greeted him at the highway entrance ten kilometers away. A bunch of people were holding flags and shouting slogans, saying:
I can't do it anymore.
There were still five hundred meters without anyone, and he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. He had done so much for the village, why hadn't he been picked up yet? Are they all white-eyed wolves?
Two hundred meters later, I relaxed and suddenly there was a group of people standing on the roadside in front of me. It was winter and the sky was covered with heavy snow. Many children nearby seemed to have been forcibly dragged by their parents. Some were having snowball fights and some were rolling on the ground.
Open the door and get out of the car.
Miao Le jumped up and disappeared, go beat the dog!
"Tongwei, you're back. You've had a hard journey!" The village chief was the first to say hello, and the others also called each other.
Qi Tongwei called people one by one, followed by a friendly smile.
"Look at this person, I heard he is the boss of Jingzhou, and he is so polite to us!"
"Yes, this is like a high-ranking official. Look at the small director in the town. He went to do some business and shirk it for a long time, and finally moved Tong Wei out."
...
Qi Tongwei remained calm while listening to other people's discussions behind his back.
People, you must learn to pretend to be deaf and dumb, otherwise you will not be happy!
"Tongwei, it just so happens that our village is worshiping our ancestors today. You are now the patriarch of our Qi family. You should take the lead in this ceremony!" After saying that, Village Chief Qi put a piece of yellow cloth on Qi Tongwei's shoulders.
Qi Tongwei was startled, good fellow, he is wearing a yellow robe.
Also, when did he become the clan leader, he didn’t even know?
"Second uncle, I don't know how to worship ancestors either!"
"Listen to the slogans, just burn incense and kowtow!"
Afterwards, everyone walked towards the village in great numbers.
As soon as you enter the village, you will see a straight asphalt road extending in all directions. On the roadside are two-story villas with yards, all of which are the same.
"How about it? Our village now all lives in houses like this. Your house is next to my house. By the way, your old house is still in the same place. We were afraid that you would miss something, so we didn't move." The village chief explained.
road.
"Thanks to Tongwei, we never dreamed of living in such a good house before!"
"Yes, not to mention that some families can now afford cars, which is great!"
Qi Tongwei also nodded, the folks are living well, that's great!
After walking for another ten minutes, everyone came to a large square, which seemed to be about the size of a football field. In the middle, a huge statue was placed on a square stone platform. There were many words carved around the stone platform.
The statue is like a man, standing with his hands behind his back, his back to them, with a bamboo hat on his head and a cat standing on his shoulders.
Village Chief Qi said with a smile: "Originally we wanted to carve this statue in your likeness, but the old man didn't agree and said you weren't dead yet. In the end, it ended up like this. When you die, we will
Put your face on it."
Qi Tongwei:......
Can't you get a good deal with him?
Behind the statue, a platform was built with square stones, which has been covered with red cloth and has a tall shelf. In front of the platform is the place where the family tree is placed.
There are several tablets in front of the genealogy. Qi Tongwei looked at them from a distance, and they seemed to be brothers and uncles of the old man. They all died in the war with the Japanese.
According to the custom of Qijia Village, these people enjoy the first incense whenever they worship their ancestors.
They take great credit!
On the right side of the stage were several elderly people from Qijia Village, led by the old man. Qi Tongwei on the left was someone I didn’t recognize, so he was probably here to watch the ceremony.
When Qi Tongwei came to the stage, several children suddenly rushed out from the left and kowtowed to Qi Tongwei, bang bang bang, very sincerely.
Qi Tongwei was stunned and quickly helped them up.
"Haha, the grandparents of these children were sick, and they were rescued by the 'Qijia Village Pension Foundation' that you ordered to establish last time you came back. This is to thank you." Village Chief Qi chuckled.
Qi Tongwei touched several children, took out the red envelopes he had prepared, and handed one to each of them.
"Thank you, uncle~" the girl said shyly.
"Uncle Qi, I want to be a high official who does good things for people like you in the future!"
"Me too, thank you Uncle Qi for saving my grandma."
"Grandpa Qi, I want to be a good policeman like you." This seniority is low.
...
The children expressed their milky thanks. Although they did not have as many words as the officials, Qi Tongwei was moved in a different way and even felt that his burden was a little heavier.
I am now a role model in the eyes of many children! Never do anything wrong in the future!
After sending the children away, Village Chief Qi straightened his face and signaled to the emcee on the left who was holding a loudspeaker.
Suddenly, gongs and drums sounded.
"The ancestor worship ceremony begins!" the master of ceremonies shouted.
"The ancestor worship ceremony of the Qi family in Qijia Village has begun. Please invite the patriarch Qi Tongwei, the 13th grandson of the first house, Qi Yaohua, and the 13th grandson of the second house, Qi Yaodong, to invite the staff to enter!"
At this time, Village Chief Qi remembered something and took out a piece of paper and gave it to Qi Tongwei: "This is the line you are going to shout later, write it down!"
Qi Tongwei looked at the dozens of words on the paper and breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the village chief wasn't too confused. He glanced at it and remembered it directly.
