I go to the ancient imperial examinations

Chapter 200 Second Adoption
Guardian Courtyard.

"Let them all go out!" Wei Daru glared at the old and weak women and children in the second bedroom with gloomy eyes. He made no secret of his resistance, rejection, and hatred. He pointed at Liu and the others and shouted, "Let them all go!"

"Brother Xun, you have to decide for us, we really can't survive." Supported by her daughter, the old lady Liu wiped her tears and gave Zhan Feiyu a vicious look.

"Grandpa patriarch, my younger siblings and I don't want to starve to death. My younger brother has to go to school, and he will be a high-ranking official in the future to honor our ancestors." The eleven-year-old girl was sobbing, holding two little boys by her left and right hands. His clothes were patched, and his eyes were red and swollen from crying.

After the little girl finished speaking, she tightened her hands a little bit, and the two little boys who were pinched in pain burst into tears, causing other children to cry too.

Wei Daru patted the wheelchair angrily, pointed at the crying Liu and the others, his voice trembled because of his anger, "Everyone get out! Anyone who doesn't leave will be killed!"

Wow... The children were frightened and forgot to cry for a moment, but then they all started howling at the top of their lungs, and several women also started crying. In contrast, David Daru looked cold-blooded and heartless.

The old patriarch frowned and didn't speak, but several members of the Wei clan sympathized with the crying children. It was their grandfather and father who did the evil, but they were all beheaded. These children were not even born. Can't blame them.

Looking at the spacious and quiet courtyard and the bright house, these thin, crying and sobbing children make people feel more sympathetic and compassionate.

"Tianqi, you have a grievance and a debtor. You are also an old man. How can you have trouble with a few children?" A peer of the same generation who couldn't see it said with a sullen face.

"Yes, Uncle Tianqi, the children are innocent, don't you have the heart to watch them all starve to death?"

"Break the bones and connect the tendons. They are all members of the Wei clan, and the blood of the Wei family is flowing on their bodies. Tianqi, listen to the second cousin, the past has passed, you can't look at your branch The incense is cut off? How can you do this to your grandfather?"

Following the persuasion of the clansman one by one, Wei Daru's face became more and more ugly. Under the anger, his skinny hands clenched into fists kept shaking.

Perhaps sensing that the atmosphere was not right, Hong'er leaned closer to Zhan Feiyu, firmly grasping his bamboo pole with his right hand, but secretly clenched Zhan Feiyu's sleeve with his left hand.

Spotting Hong'er's small movements from the corner of the eye, Zhan Feiyu grasped his left hand. The little guy froze for a moment, raised his head and stared blankly at Zhan Feiyu, his dull eyes sparkled with light, and he shook the quilt happily. holding left hand.

"Master?" Steward Sun looked worriedly at the angry Wei Daru, even if the old patriarch spoke up, he shouldn't have let people like the first room and the second room in.

His face was livid with anger, his lips trembled twice, Wei Daru suddenly raised his head, and roared in a hoarse voice: "Shoot them all! Hit them!"

And a roar exhausted all the strength of Wei Daru, he gasped heavily, his chest heaved violently, if he was not sitting in a wheelchair, he would probably have collapsed.

"This is not giving us a way to survive! If you want to beat me, you can kill me, the old woman? All the men in the family are dead. This old woman has brought up a few children to this age. I am worthy of the ancestors of the Wei family! "The old lady Liu wailed again, raised her hand and patted her chest.

Immediately, several women and children also began to cry, and the ears of those who were arguing all of a sudden hurt.

The old patriarch is almost 80 years old, and this meeting also has a grumpy face, "Okay, don't cry, talk about things, my old bones are still alive, who can beat you to death?"

Even if he knew that Mrs. Liu said this on purpose, the old patriarch could not deny that there were successors from the second family of the big family, and that this one did not cut off the incense.

Seeing that Wei Daru really wanted someone to drive the Liu family away, the old patriarch said with a sullen face: "Tian Qi, I am the patriarch of the Wei family, and the tablets of your parents are still enshrined in the ancestral hall!"

Wei Daru was stunned, his skinny old wrinkled face was full of pain and anger, he naturally heard the threatening meaning in the old patriarch's words, not only the tablets, but also the coffins of his parents, wife and children were buried in Wei's ancestral grave.

Zhan Feiyu glanced at the complacent Liu Shi and the others. It seemed that they expected Wei Daru to be furious, so they deliberately made a weak gesture to show sympathy. Just poor.

A group of people finally entered the main hall, the sun was too hot outside, and they were sweating from the heat after standing for a while, the old patriarch and Wei Daru's bodies couldn't take it anymore.

Zhan Feiyu originally planned to take Hong'er and leave first. After all, this is Wei Daru's family business, and she must avoid it as a child and an outsider.

"Brother Xun, she can't go!" The old lady Liu wiped off the sweat from her forehead, and pointed at Zhan Feiyu who was about to leave. Zhan Feiyu is not polite anymore.

After swiping, all the Wei family looked at Zhan Feiyu again, with different expressions, but they were obviously repulsive and resistant.

If Zhan Feiyu hadn't suddenly entered Wei's house, and rumors spread outside that Wei Dalu was going to give a huge family property to a little girl, the Liu family who received the news would not have made such a fuss.

Of course, Mrs. Liu also knew that Wei Daru wanted to kill the people in the second room of the first house, so before coming, he sent a letter back to Wei's hometown, deliberately exaggerating.

As soon as the news spread in the village, even the old patriarch had no intentions, but the Wei clan in the village was also poor, and they became greedy for Wei Daru's family property. In the end, the old patriarch had to take a half-day boat ride from his hometown with his people.

In the room, Wei Daru took a complicated look at Zhan Feiyu, "Come in!"

If it is said that Zhan Feiyu was allowed to enter Wushulou at the beginning to repay the kindness of Jin Longwei, but later he knew Zhan Feiyu's identity, and also learned that she had broken up with Zhan's old house for studying.

In the eyes of ordinary people, Zhan Feiyu is disobedient and disobedient to his elders, which suits Wei Daru's temper.

Thinking of the hatred back then, Wei Daru wished that all the people in the first house and second house would die. He dragged this crippled body to live just to see their fate, to see what happened to the descendants of these beasts who murdered for money. down and out.

The chairs in the main hall were full of people, those who had no place to sit had to stand, and Wei Daru, who was in a wheelchair, didn't speak, which made the atmosphere suddenly awkward and awkward.

The old patriarch sighed, breaking the strange calm, "I'm already 80 years old, and I don't have a few days to live. You can complain or hate, but I won't know anything when I close my eyes."

Upon hearing what the old patriarch said, everyone present understood that the old patriarch planned to take the matter on himself. No matter what the result was, the old patriarch would bear it all. Generally, there are more than 20 fatal cases.

Mrs. Liu and the young women were overjoyed, their eyes were full of greed, but the children who were tired from crying all drooped their heads, not knowing what the old patriarch's words meant.

The remaining members of the Wei clan were also a little moved, but compared to the Liu family and others, they were more restrained. The farmers were afraid of being poor, so they would be happy even if they could get three or five taels of silver.

"Tianqi, it's human nature for you to hate the eldest and the second family." The old patriarch really has no face to ask Wei Daru to forgive him, but the property of the Wei family cannot fall into the hands of outsiders, "but the incense of your house cannot be broken. Now, why don't you choose a child from the clan to adopt, and you can have a descendant who worships incense in the future."

"Brother Xun?" Mrs. Liu became anxious all of a sudden, and said impatiently, "Since you want to adopt, why don't you choose one of these children, they are the ones who will be passed on by blood."

The young women didn't want to live in poverty, so they hurriedly pushed the little boys to the front.

Being too eager, the three-year-old boy couldn't stand still, fell to the ground with a slap, and burst into tears.

Wei Daru looked at Liu and the others sarcastically, even if he gave all his money to the beggars in Fengzhoucheng, he would not leave a penny for these people in front of him.

The old patriarch looked at the greedy Liu family and the others. They were smart in their calculations, but they didn't think about the five lives of the third and third families on their backs. How could Tianqi adopt the children of the first and second families.

"Okay, the adoptive child will be picked from the clan! It's nothing to do with your eldest and second wife." The old patriarch said with a final word, and he was also worried that Wei Daru would be angered, and he would become stiff at that time.

The old patriarch looked at Wei Daru and continued: "The daughter-in-law of Lao Gen's family gave birth to a fourth son last month, but his mother was not lucky. She fell into the water and drowned when she returned to her mother's house. Lao Gen's family didn't want to raise this little boy." Son, why don't you just adopt him, and save trouble in the future."

There were already three sons before, and Lao Gen’s family disliked the bad luck of this youngest son, and killed her mother. Besides, Shuangzhu of Lao Gen’s family is not yet 30 years old, and he will definitely marry another daughter-in-law later, and will have another child at that time. My child, it is good to adopt this youngest son who is only one month old.

"No need, I'll adopt this girl!" Wei Daru suddenly pointed at Zhan Feiyu, and the 30 people in the room were taken aback when he said this.

Uh... Zhan Feiyu, who was standing in the corner, looked at Wei Daru in astonishment. How could this be his own business?

"Wei Tianqi, are you crazy? You want to adopt an outsider, give the Wei family's ancestral property to outsiders and don't support your nephews, Wei Tianqi, why didn't the fire burn you to death? You have the face to see the Wei family Ancestors?" Liu yelled and cursed at the top of his voice, his wrinkled old face twisted meanly, wishing he could strangle Zhan Feiyu to death who stole people's money.

Zhan Feiyu, who had already been adopted once, looked at Wei Daru speechlessly. The old man didn't like him, so he wanted to trick himself?

The old patriarch and members of the Wei clan also looked ugly, and the adoptives are usually selected from the clan, how can there be an adoptive person with a different surname?

Although Mrs. Liu's scolding was harsh, her words were not harsh. How could the Wei family's property be given to outsiders? The key is still a little girl. When she gets married in the future, the property will be taken to her husband's family.

"Tianqi, the matter of adoption is very important, how can you be arrogant?" The old patriarch had a straight face. The experience of the third house deserves sympathy. Recklessly.

If these industries belong to the clan, the clan can also build a private school, and maybe train a few scholars in the future.

At the beginning, Wei Daru thought of following Hong'er, but when he thought that Zhu Changyun would not be able to protect himself now, Hong'er would definitely not be able to keep these properties when he was young, and might cause trouble, so Wei Daru thought of Zhan Feiyu.

The little girl is under the tutelage of Gu Xueshi, and she is still a child. She might be a scholar after the examination in August. This huge property is in the hands of Zhan Feiyu. He wants to see how the second bedroom can do?
It's fine if these people don't rob them, but if they are greedy and malicious, thinking of Zhan Feiyu's hot style of acting, and the forbidden dragon guard behind him, Wei Daru can't wait to see these people die.

"Patriarch, you don't need to say anything, I have made up my mind!" Wei Daru said with a cold face, looked at the dissatisfied old patriarch and continued: "I will give 5000 taels of silver to the clan. Just move the grave! Take my parents’ tablet away from the ancestral hall.”

"You?" The old patriarch didn't expect Wei Daru to act so perversely. Although the fallen leaves return to their roots, people are dead, where they are buried, and whether there is incense or not. In fact, the living people care.

The rest of the tribe were also angry, staring at Wei Daru angrily, how could he hand over the property to outsiders?

Ignoring the angry crowd, Wei Daru's old face was calm, "If there is really retribution, these people should have died long ago?"

"I don't agree!" Liu screamed. If eyes could kill, Wei Daru would have died thousands of times. "This is all the property of the Wei family. Why do you give it to this bitch? My grandson, Wei Tianqi, if you dare to act recklessly, I'll kill you right here!"

Wei Daru's branch is a side branch of the Wei family in terms of genealogy, and the closest blood relatives are people like the Liu family. Wei Daru's father and the beheaded Dafang Erfang are brothers. If it weren't for this, Wei's father would not have Unprepared, he was finally killed by his brother in collusion with water bandits.

"Okay, I agree." The old patriarch finally agreed.

"I don't agree!" Mrs. Liu howled crazily again, and several women followed suit.

These years of eating bran and swallowing vegetables have been so bitter, and if they can survive it, they think that after Wei Daru dies, these properties will belong to them, and they can go back to the days of wearing gold and silver.

But when they thought about the hardships they would have to spend in the next few decades, the crying of the women was terrible, even worse than the death of their parents and brothers back then.

Several clansmen looked at the old patriarch in surprise. Although 5000 taels was a lot, they had never seen so much silver in their entire lives, but looking at the house of the Wei family, it was estimated to be worth two to 3000 taels of silver, not to mention the decorations. 5000 taels is just a drop in the bucket.

"Okay, there's no need to talk about it." Now that the old patriarch has made a decision, he can't change it. After all, if there is no crime committed by the big family and the second family, the clan will not be able to get a penny. People need to be content, and 5000 taels of silver is enough for the clan Li built a private school to invite his master.

Zhan Feiyu glanced at the old patriarch, but he didn't expect him to agree. Although the Wei clan members were a little dissatisfied, they didn't speak up. The only clown was the crying and cursing Liu and the others.

Probably because he was in a good mood, Wei Daru asked the housekeeper to arrange a place for the old patriarch and the others, and even Liu and the others who were jumping up and down did not drive them out.

They stayed at Wei's house, looking at the huge yard, they probably were even more reluctant to part with this easy-to-get property, the more they suffered, the happier Wei Daru was.

When everyone dispersed, Zhan Feiyu said helplessly: "Old man, you know my situation, I can't adopt."

They have all been adopted once, and Zhan Feiyu is the hope of the Zhan clan. If Wei Daru dares to do this, the old patriarch of the Zhan clan will definitely bring the Zhan clan to call.

"You don't like my things? That's right, you are now a student of Gu Xueshi, so it's normal to look down on me." Wei Daru said angrily, with thorns in his words, "It's up to you to deal with it at that time. I won’t be able to find you even in the underworld.”

The old butler who was pouring the tea, Quan pretended not to hear, the master was so unreasonable, but compared to the previous whole day when he didn't speak, the master's critical appearance was also good.

"Mr., you are unreasonable." Zhan Feiyu finally understood what old and young are. This person is old and stubborn like an unreasonable child.

Wei Daru held a teacup and drank tea, he didn't seem to hear Zhan Feiyu's complaints, he would not give these properties to those of the Liu family, and the others didn't know what their character was.

Wei Daru didn't care about things outside his body, but he didn't want the money to help the wicked, so Zhan Feiyu was the most suitable candidate.

"I'm going to copy the books!" Unable to understand, Zhan Feiyu dropped the words, took Hong'er's hand and went to Wushulou to continue copying books.
