375 Still Have To Go Small (2/4)
375. Chapter 375 Still have to go small (24)
Murphy can't enter the ancestral hall, not to mention that she has not been included in the Yang family's family tree (Note 1), even if there is, the ancestral hall cannot be entered casually!
The Yang family's ancestral hall is quite enlightened. Because of the heavy casualties in the war, Yang Chonggui is the only one left in the old Yang family, so Yang Chonggui has the final say in the rules. In the past, he didn't let Dong Yue'e enter the ancestral hall, saying that he could only enter once in his life, but then he couldn't beat his wife, so he reluctantly changed it to the rule that family women can enter the ancestral hall to worship their ancestors together on New Year's and festivals.
But now that Murphy can't get in, Yang Huan doesn't dare to secretly bring Murphy in. If the old man sees it, Yang Huan will be beaten!
How to do?
Yang Huan rolled his eyes, smiled slyly, and said, "Yes! Come with me!"
...
Yang Yi knelt down in the gloomy ancestral hall, and the cold wind at night kept coming in through the crack of the door. Fortunately, his body was strong and he was not afraid of the cold, so he knelt calmly, still slandering the tradition of his old man. , ignorant, I feel that the "eccentric and self-righteous" said in the ancestral teaching, it may not be impossible to use it on the old man!
Of course, he was only slandering Yang Chonggui's way of doing things. Yang Chonggui blamed him for the reason, and Yang Yi had already figured it out and realized his mistake.
Someone once said: "The essence of man is not an abstract thing inherent in a single person, but in its reality, it is the sum of all social relations."
After all, I still live in this world, and I can't ignore social customs because of my casual attitude towards life. I am also a person with a family. Even if I look down on the binding force of that paper certificate, I should know what this commitment means to Murphy...
In this quiet ancestral hall, Yang Yi thought a lot.
However, the silence was soon broken.
A faint rustling sound entered Yang Yi's ears. In this dim and quiet ancestral hall, there was a lot of movement!
Yang Yi frowned and looked over. His hearing and eyesight were very good, he quickly found the source of the sound, and then he saw a pair of eyes on the ventilation hole in the corner of the wall.
The eye blinked, then backed away.
"Sister-in-law, look, big brother is inside." Yang Huan's voice came over, and after a while, a pair of familiar eyes appeared at the entrance of the hole.
It's Murphy's!
Yang Yi recognized it at once, and saw her sad expression when she saw her kneeling there.
"Murphy, it's not a big deal, I'll be fine if I stay for more than half an hour. Go back quickly, it's quite cold outside." Yang Yi said ahead of her.
Murphy heard it. Although it was a little vague outside, she heard the second half of the sentence clearly. She pursed her lips and said stubbornly: "No, I want to accompany you."
"What are you doing with me? I'm not cold inside, you'll be frozen outside. Fool, be obedient!"
"I don't listen, I don't listen, I don't like seeing you punished for me." Murphy shed a few tears before finally holding back and talking back.
"Not punished. In our house, this punishment for kneeling is normal. If you don't believe me, ask Huanhuan, are Yang Qing and I often punished?" Yang Yi coaxed her.
Yang Huan also pulled Murphy and said, "Yes, it's only been fined for an hour, it's fine. We should not wait here, otherwise, my dad will come back later, and things will be even worse."
Murphy was persuaded to leave by Yang Huan, but she didn't go back so peacefully, but went upstairs to get a coat for Yang Yi and asked Yang Qing to send him in.
Then, she also went to Dong Yue'e. Although she was a little nervous without Yang Yi, she still summoned up the courage to tell Dong Yue'e the current work situation of her and Yang Yi, and explained why they were not married, and wanted Dong Yue'e to help. Just talk.
At this time, Xixi didn't understand what happened just now, she ran over, took her mother's hand, and asked, "Mama, where did Baba go?"
Now it's dark outside the big house, and I can't see anything clearly. Xixi is a little scared and doesn't dare to go "exploration" in the yard, but neither her parents play with her, nor is her cutest grandpa, the little girl finally feels bored .
"He, he has something to do now, he will be back in a while." Murphy took Xixi into his arms, stroked her hair gently, and whispered.
Dong Yue'e looked at Xixi with a smile, and when she came up with an idea, she said to Murphy, "Actually, what I say usually has some effect. But now the old man has such a temper, and no one listens to it, I persuade him. It's no use, if he makes Tie Zi kneel until dawn, he will also be thinking of law enforcement for his ancestors, and his six relatives will not recognize it. But I think that there is one person who may persuade him to be useful! "
"Who?" Murphy asked anxiously as if a drowning man grabbed a straw.
"Little Yang Xi!" Dong Yue'e said with a smile.
...
After a while, Yang Chonggui came back from the outside slowly with his hands behind his back. He didn't rush to the ancestral hall to talk to Yang Yi, but returned to the lobby first, saw Dong Yue'e, and instructed: "Yue'e, pour me a cup of tea!"
But just as he sat down on the Grand Master's chair, a little man staggered over with a teacup in his hand.
"Grandpa, I'll give you tea." Before Xixi could get there, a crisp voice came over.
"Oh, put it down, give it to grandpa, why did you come to serve grandpa tea? What should I do if it's hot?" Yang Chonggui looked anxious. Teacup, with reproach on his lips.
"Hee hee, it's not hot." Xixi smiled sweetly at her grandpa.
Yang Chonggui touched the rim of the cup. He probably knew what he had in mind. He took a sip and put it down. It was really not hot, and the tea was warm. It seemed that someone had already made preparations.
"It won't work if it's not hot, it's a porcelain cup, what should I do if it falls and hits my feet or cuts my feet?" Yang Chonggui picked Xixi up and sat on the chair of the Grand Master, saying reproachfully.
Although it is to the granddaughter, who is talking about who knows in his heart.
"Grandpa, grandma said, you locked me up." Xixi pouted and said, "Grandpa, don't be angry, okay? I'm Baba, I'm not a bad guy."
"Are you okay..." Xixi said while shaking Yang Chonggui's hand. Even if Yang Chonggui had a heart of stone, he could not resist this childish act of coquettishness.
"But your father didn't do something well, so grandpa got angry." Yang Chonggui explained.
"But, but you don't shut him up, okay? I'm afraid." Xixi said sadly, "Baba is disobedient, I'll ask him to apologize to you, okay? Baba said that if you know your mistakes, you can correct them. You're a good boy. Angry, okay?"
The villain's voice was so soft that Yang Chonggui didn't know how to deal with it. He couldn't be hard-hearted with Xixi, and his anger disappeared early after being coaxed by his granddaughter.
"Okay, okay, okay! I won't punish your father, Yang Xi, don't cry, grandpa promises you, let your father come back right away." Yang Chonggui said quickly when Xixi's eyes were red.
"Really?" Xixi held back her tears and looked at her grandfather in surprise.
"Of course, when grandpa speaks, it's a gentleman's words, and it's hard to chase after horses. Grandpa will let your father come back now!" Yang Chonggui looked at his granddaughter's surprised eyes, patted his chest immediately, and said proudly.
"Grandpa, you are so kind!" Xixi leaned over and kissed Grandpa's cheek.
This time, Yang Chonggui, who had a stern face at first, couldn't hold on any longer. He smiled, and the wrinkles on his face were like blooming flowers, which had never been so exciting.
Note 1, women write their husband's family tree, specifically how to write it, whether to write the full name, will not be discussed here, and will not be extended to describe Xixi's problem. Anyway, Xiaohan does not approve of the prejudiced places, including Yang Chonggui asking Yang Yi to kneel. This does not mean that Xiaohan is promoting these, Xiaohan himself is very disgusted. However, it seems that with the development of the times and the change of ideas, many family trees will also include their daughters in the family tree, which is a good thing!
