At the Xu family ancestral hall, the old uncle led everyone to pay homage to the ancestors, and then he looked solemn and said: "The state has national laws, and the family has family rules. Unfilial descendants, Xu Chang, are bold and reckless..."

Although the old uncle spoke intermittently, with a few coughs coming from time to time, the words were loud and clear, and the entire ancestral hall was filled with a sense of solemnity. The old uncle was about to announce punishment, but at this moment, something unexpected happened.

"Old uncle...old uncle..."

It was Xu Han who came. Xu Han's gong-like voice roared, and the house seemed to be lifted open. The old uncle frowned and sat down calmly with someone helping him, but his mood was very uneasy.

Not only him, but all the men present from the whole family showed a look of fear. They all couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the Yao family is here? How come it came so quickly? What happened today may not be easy.

Xu Han stumbled in, out of breath, and knelt in front of his old uncle, saying: "Old uncle... something big happened!"

The old uncle said desperately: "What happened? The Yao family has come to visit? How many people have come?"

Xu Han shook his head and said: "It's a matter of the Yao family, but it's not the Yao family who wants to come. Several big surnames nearby, the Wang family in Jiangchuan, the Zhou family in Qinghedu, and the Zhang family in Binshui suddenly surrounded Yao with many people.

The family said that the Yao family's cattle had trampled their crops, and they asked the Yao family to bring ten cows to compensate. The Yao family refused, and a fight broke out. Hundreds of people fought together, and the Yao family was beaten to pieces.

.I also heard that the young master of the Binshui Zhang family personally led the farmers into Yao Juren's home, pulled Yao Juren out, tied him to a locust tree, had a headache and beat him, Yao Juren was almost dying. And that

Yao Jiachang was thrown into the river. He was in such a miserable state that he almost drowned after eating a lot of water."

"Ah...what's going on..."

No one would believe the so-called murder caused by a cow. The cow was just an excuse. This family, the Wang family, and the Zhou family were clearly looking for trouble.

The most important problem is that none of these three families are easy to provoke. The Zhang family is a riverside family. There are still two Jinshi archways in the ancestral hall. It can be said that it is a strong family. The Jiangchuan Wang family is similar. Not only did the family have Jinshi, but also

This Jinshi has not yet passed away, and it is said that he is still an official in Quanzhou. The Zhou family in Qinghedu is even more terrible. Someone in the family once went to a province to impose punishment. Although this ancestor has passed away, in Qiantang, there are still

It's also a famous family.

In Yao Ju's family, there was also a Jucai talent, and he has the current family background, but in front of these three families, he is not even worthy of carrying shoes. No matter whether his surname is Zhang, Wang or Zhou, which one does not have a big business and fertile land?

There are more than thousands of acres, farmers, and hundreds of servants? Yao Ju's people can't compare with one finger of others.

How could such a family suddenly be so cruel to Yao Juren?

The old uncle was shocked and unsure, and for a moment he didn't quite believe it.

At this time, another clan member came quickly and said: "Old uncle, several sedans came from outside the village, and someone handed over the famous assassins. They are the masters of the Zhou family, the masters of the Wang family, and the young masters of the Zhang family, saying they want to pay a visit.

"

call……

At this time, the entire ancestral hall was in an uproar.

The Xu family comes from a humble family, to put it harshly. Although they can have a chance to hold an iron job, they are nothing in the eyes of these aristocratic families. A distant relative of their family would not be willing to join in the evil deeds.

What kind of dealings do the people of the Xu family have?

The noble is noble, the cheap is cheap. In the eyes of noble people, how can they tolerate a lowly family like the Xu family?

But now, people actually come to visit me. They even use the word "visit", which is really unexpected.

Everything... is like a dream. Everyone in the family is dreaming, and the old uncle is also dreaming.

The old uncle supported his sick body and couldn't help but said: "Is this wrong...ah...don't care about anything else, hurry up and welcome the guests."

They were distinguished guests, and even if they had one foot in the coffin, the old uncle had to come out to receive the guests in person. He specially chose Xu Shen and several people of some status in the clan to accompany them, and went to greet them in person.

A distinguished guest.

At the entrance of the village, three sedans were parked steadily. The sedan is a symbol of status, especially in this countryside. Zhou Jin, the master of the Zhou family, Wang Chang, the master of the Wang family, and Zhang Shi, the young master of the Zhang family, stood at the entrance of the village.

While waiting, the old uncle stepped forward, bowed and saluted quickly, and said: "This distinguished guest has condescended to me, which makes everyone in the Xu family feel flattered..."

Unexpectedly, Mr. Zhou Jin supported him kindly, and said gently and politely, as if he was unwilling to accept his gift, "Old man, please don't be too polite. We are close neighbors and rarely move around. Today I came to visit, but...

It’s presumptuous.”

Wang Chang, the master of the Wang family, smiled slightly and said, "Yes, there is no need to be polite."

The young master of the Zhang family lost his temper and waved his fan, saying, "I wonder if Xu Qian and Xu Sheng are here? We are here to visit him. It is said that he has returned to his hometown, so we came here to pay a visit."

"Qian'er..." Old uncle, Xu Shen and others were confused and shocked. Three noble men actually came to see Xu Qian?

However, at this time, the old uncle could not allow him to think too much. With the help of Xu Shen, he said tremblingly: "I am here in the clan, and I have invited three distinguished guests to condescend to have tea with me. I will call Xu Qian right now."

Come."

Then he led the three nobles to the hall of Xu Shen's family. Xu Shen was the richest among the Xu family. He had at least six or seven tile-roofed houses to entertain distinguished guests, which only his family could afford.

The three distinguished guests exchanged a few words with their old uncle, and Xu Qian arrived. Xu Qian came in, and the three distinguished guests stood up. First, Xu Qian saluted the three of them, and the three of them returned the salute at the same time. Xu Qian accompanied the last person, looked at the three of them, and said

: "The clan is shabby. I wonder if we have treated our three friends lightly."

Wang Chang shook his head with a smile and said: "I can see Mr. Xu, how can I talk about the word "waiting slowly"? I came here today to talk about the feelings in the countryside. Yes, I have heard for a long time that the young master is Xie Xueshi's favorite disciple, and Xie Xieshi is me.

He is a model scholar in Hangzhou, but don’t you know he is still in good health?”

Xu Qian said seriously: "My teacher is in good health and has a lot to do."

Wang Chang chuckled, rolled his eyes, and said: "That's good, that's good."

On the other hand, several people from the Xu family were confused as to who this bachelor was.

Master Zhang Shi said, "I'm embarrassed to say it. I had many misunderstandings about Xu Sheng before, and I almost made a joke. Later I found out that Xu Sheng and I were from the same hometown. I offended, offended."

The eyes of the old uncle and Xu Shen were about to drop. The dignified young master of the Zhang family actually apologized to Qian'er. What kind of incident was this?

Unexpectedly, Xu Qian was extremely calm, neither arrogant nor disrespectful. He just said calmly: "It's true that we don't know each other until we fight. I have always admired the sagacity of the two Jinshi Gongs."

Zhang Shi seemed to be relieved when he heard what Xu Qian said.

The four of them talked to each other, and gradually started talking and laughing. Then they talked about some jokes in the examination room, interesting stories about the scholars, and some gossips about famous people. When they saw noon, Zhang Shi suddenly made an understatement.

Authentic: "Yao Changsheng from Yaojiawu thought he had a Juren in his family, but he actually regarded himself as a Juren. He was arrogant and always made people hate him. Such a villain is really a shame to the locals. I casually taught him a lesson.

I hope he can have a longer memory, but there was a conflict with the Yao family just now, so he didn't hit Mr. Xu Sheng, right?"

Xu Qian said quickly: "No, no, even if we clash a few times, you still can't hit me. Speaking of which, the villagers are rough and often cause trouble, but it's interesting to see the excitement."

Zhang Shi smiled slightly, just nodded and said, "It's unbelievable that Mr. Xu has such a hobby."

Xu Qian said seriously: "There are many things in the world, and it is always good to see more. Traveling thousands of miles and reading thousands of books is a student's lifelong wish. It's just that my parents are not traveling far away, so I can walk more and see more."

But it’s also good.”

Zhang Shi laughed and said nothing more. He stood up and said, "It's getting late. There are still some mundane matters at home, so I can only say goodbye to Mr. Xu Sheng. If you have free time in the future, you can visit me in my humble house and talk to Mr. Xu Sheng then."

.”

The two masters of the Zhou family and the Wang family also stood up and found a reason to leave.

Xu Qian tried to persuade them to stay, but in the end he didn't insist. He sent them to the entrance of the village, watched them get into the sedan, and watched them leave. As for the old uncle and Xu Shen, they were dumbfounded when they saw all this and went to see them again.

Xu Qian found that Xu Qian had something weird about him.

Seeing that Xu Qian was still not leaving, Xu Shen had many questions in his heart, so he couldn't help but said: "Qian'er, the guest has already left, why don't you go back to the house?"

Xu Qian looked at the Yao family's house in the distance and said, "I'm waiting."

Xu Shen was confused and said: "What are you waiting for?"

Xu Qian said: "Wait and watch the excitement."

The three sedans moved farther and farther along the field ridge. The three people in the sedans were far away. Suddenly they called out, and the servants following the sedans quickly came forward, waiting for instructions.

The young master of the Zhang family, Zhang Shi, was sitting in the sedan chair, playing with the paper fan in his hand, and said slowly: "Go on, the Yao family's cattle have trampled on my Zhang family's farmland again. Tell everyone, go to the Yao family again, and bring this to the Yao family."

Everyone in the Yao family will be beaten again."
