Chapter 14 The Clan Leader

But they just split up their families. If their family has a way and makes money in the future, those people will definitely post it again. They have to think of a way to leave it clean with that family.

In this era, being an official requires the support of the family, so Yang Zhengsong did not want to leave the family.

When Yang Zhengsong brought his two sons to the clan leader's house, the elders in the village were drinking tea in the ancestral hall.

"Boy Zhengsong, I brought my sons Jinwen and Xiuwen to wish you all the elders a happy new year." After Yang Zhengsong put down his things with his two sons, he knelt down to pay New Year's greetings to the elders sitting in the head.

"Okay, okay, get up, get up. You just split the family and the family is not well off. We have accepted the gifts, so you can take them back!" The patriarch happily received their gifts, but he was not going to keep the things. How did their family be separated? Everyone can see them, and they all want to help them when they are in the most difficult times.

"Grandpa, grandpa, aren't any good things? My mother fryed some peanuts at home, and she was just for fun when chatting with them. The eggs here were the eggs laid by the pheasant I caught up on the mountain. Xiao Si's health was already well. My mother said that she usually relies on the help of the elders in the village, so she just took a few pheasant eggs, which was nothing." Yang Xiuwen took out the melon seed peanuts wrapped by his mother and filled the plates on the table.

Because the melon seeds here are usually fried by themselves, Ms. Lu Qingshang dare not take those five-spice or creamy flavors. All the ones they take are original, so that the taste will not be so big.

"You kid, be careful when going up the mountain. You can get less things and not hurt yourself, do you know?" The patriarch saw that his movements did not stop him. These things were not valuable things? There were on the mountain in autumn, so he did not refuse.

Besides, all the elders of the clan are here, so they don’t have to go to the other clan’s homes again.

The Yang family has a reunion dinner every afternoon on the first day of the day. Each family gets whatever they have, and then comes to the cafeteria to cook and eat together.

The son and grandson of the clan leader are both promising, so the family raises a pig every year. It is killed at the end of the year and will eat pig slaughtering rice that afternoon. The whole village comes. After that, the widowed elderly people in the village can get half a pound of meat, and the rest is to keep the reunion dinner for the first afternoon of the first day of the lunar month.

Usually, when children in the village go up the mountain to harvest pig grass, they will send some to the patriarch's house to feed the pig. This is a tradition that Yangjia Village has remained unchanged for 20 years.

"I know Grandpa, Grandpa, look, the eggs of pheasant are not as big as the eggs we raise. They are just a little bit by bit. Let them cook for the children in the clan tonight. Boy, it is okay to go up the mountain to exchange for some things. Grandpa, let's leave these things behind." Yang Xiuwen knew the old patriarch's idea, but there was really nothing else to take out in their family. Today we have to make a reunion dinner, so we can't do it without taking anything.

The clan is already taking good care of them. If you don’t take anything, some people will have other ideas. If you follow the same thing, that would be bad.

Of course, the patriarch knew this truth, so he accepted it in front of everyone, thinking that he would subsidize it privately and order something else in their family.

I felt even more comfortable in my heart, which is why so many people in the family are in trouble and pay special attention to this family.

He is a close relative, and it is also because Yang Laosan is very good at being a human being and never does anything that makes it difficult for him to do.

"Grandpa, the autumn harvest this year is not good. I have gone up the mountain more often. There is a situation that I think is very strange. You have more knowledge than me. I want to ask, is there any special meaning?" Since Yang Xiuwen learned that it would be drought, he has been thinking about how to help these villagers?

"Oh, boy Xiuwen, let everyone listen to anything." The patriarch knew that this child had followed the old hunter up the mountains and down the river since he was a child, and he knew more. This was the first time he heard this boy in a dilemma.

"Didn't you have to pay for it last year? Many things in the mountain didn't run out. When I entered the mountain, I found that all the prey ran in. There were not many left on the periphery and they were all thin. Many trees in the mountain were also dried up. The water in the pool was getting less and less, and some were relatively shallow, and all dried up!" Yang Xiuwen told the clan leader and the clan leader about the child's memory.

The more the patriarch listened, the more serious the face became. Generally, there would be a major disaster. Every time a major disaster occurred, animals would predict it before humans.

"Do you still do this until you go in before the New Year?" the patriarch asked with a frown.

"Yes, it's even more serious. Does the patriarch's grandfather know the pool on the Wild Boar Slope?" Yang Xiuwen nodded and turned to see that everyone looked solemn.

"I know, the pool is very deep. I have been there to play when I was a child. At the driest time, I have never been there." The patriarch is a native of this place, and the Wild Boar Slope is also where he played when he was a child.

"It's almost dry. The remaining water feet are still not coming up. Before the New Year, Xiao Nannan had a fever. I was thinking about going there to see if there are any fish? A thin layer of ice was formed on it. Chisel the ice and stretched out the hand. There was only a little bottom left in the water. Not to mention fish, there was not even a fish fry." Yang Xiuwen learned from his memory that the child had been worried since he had been to the pool, but because of the busy family matters, he almost forgot about it.

"What? Are you going to do it? Are you sure, boy Xiuwen?" The patriarch stood up in excitement, grabbed Yang Xiuwen's shoulder, and looked at his face seriously.

"Yes, Grandpa of the Clan leader can find two uncles and uncles. Now go with me to see it. The snow has not been very heavy these two days, and there is only a thin layer of ice on it." Yang Xiuwen nodded solemnly. He must remind the people in the family.

"Lao Liu, Lao Qi, you are here with Boy Xiuwen, you must take it carefully and see it carefully. This is related to the fate of the family." The patriarch turned his head and looked at the two young men who were building the stove, waved to let them come over.

"I know, uncle of the clan leader." Although these two seem to be young, they are of great age, one is twenty or twenty. Yang Xiuwen has to call these two uncles.

The two of them picked up the machetes in the ancestral hall and went out with Yang Xiuwen.

Now the people in the ancestral hall are already most of the people in the clan. Everyone stretched their necks and waited for the three of them to come back. They were completely interested in chatting, and they just waited eagerly.
