Sir, you have to pay more

Chapter 320 Grandson Finally Poached Grandfather
"Youde's family, why are you still standing there? Hurry up and kowtow to the third grandfather!"

"From the Qing family, quickly let the baby come in and kowtow to the third grandfather!"

"If you have Yu's family, what are you grabbing? The third grandpa brought so many things, so I'm afraid they won't have yours!"

"You rich family, you should move a chair for Third Grandpa, why are you standing there stupidly!"

"."

Looking at the adults and children lining up at the gate of the ancestral hall to kowtow to the third grandpa from Beijing, including several nephews, daughters-in-law, grand-nephews, and great-grandchildren
Jia Liu could hardly sit still.

Good guy, I didn't expect my generation to be so long!
It is said that the grandson of the long house is the last house master, but it is reversed when it comes to him.

The reason is that Jia Hanfu fought against bandits when he was in the Ming army in his early years, so he never got married.Later, he married a daughter-in-law and gave birth to a baby, but died in the chaos of war.After surrendering to the Qing Dynasty, he fought for the Qing Dynasty in the South and North, and never cared about marrying a wife and having children. It was not until the seventh year of Shunzhi that Jia Hanfu's eldest son was born.

It took another ten years before Jia Liu's grandfather, Jia Zuwang, was born. It was less than two years since Jia Hanfu passed away that year.

Jia Zuwang's team was even thinner. Jia Liu's father, Jia Daquan, was only in his forties, and Jia Liu was only in his thirties when he was on Daquan's side.

This is almost a matter of two or three generations. On the head of Jia Liu, how can he not be a long-term member of the Jia family.

In the fourth generation of Jia Hanfu's branch, there is only one male in Jialiu, but his brother's branch has a prosperous population.

There are more than [-] descendants of the Jia family in Zhuangzi alone, and there are many who go out to make a living. According to Jia Youzhen, who calls himself the third grandfather, there are about [-] descendants in total.

Just wondering, the two dolls came over to kowtow to the third old master.

The baby is really, I heard my mother said that I would kowtow hard to the grandpa who came from Beijing, but I kowtowed three times "dong dong dong", and the third grandpa was excited and distressed and hurriedly helped the baby up.

Jia Youzhen introduced to the third grandfather from the side: "It's the two children of Youqing's family, you are the grandson of the grandson."

Jia Liu took a closer look, darling, the twins are still happy, and Shuan Zhu rewards him when he is happy.

One person, one ingot and five taels of big ingot.

When two ingots of big ingots were stuffed into the two babies, the scene suddenly seemed like the third great master soaring in the sky, which shocked the Jia clan present.

Nuoda ancestral hall, Yaque is silent.

After a dozen or so breaths, dozens of children who had been bouncing around with carriages and gifts outside the yard were all brought in by their parents and grandparents.

Competing to give Jia San two knocks.

Why does the Jia family call Jia Liu the third grandfather?

Because although Jia Liu had two older brothers who died young and one older sister, he was called Liu Zi in all counts.

But counting as men, they are three sons.

As the saying goes, don't worry about the few, but the unevenness. They are all descendants of the Jia family, and they all call Jia Liu the grandfather. How can he always favor one another?

"Okay, okay, okay, reward, reward! There are, there are!"

A big man from Beijing can be as stingy as a small citizen in Shanghai, and bring two big front doors to the north of Jiangsu to give gifts to people, and say that this is better smoke than Huazi?

Jia Liu, who dared to make a fortune from the imperial mausoleum, cared about small money?
Can you lose face of Daquan?
Certainly not cowardly.

As a result, the two boxes of silver brought by this reward were knocked away by the great-grandchildren.

The silver was brought by Jia Liu for moving the grave.

All the expenses for monks and priests, Mr. Yin and Yang, coffins, new tombs, and banquets are all included in it.

Things are endless.

The dolls knocked away the money from the ancestor Jia who was struck by lightning, what about the adults?
Jia Liu, who is 58 and has chastity and is 22, is called the third grandpa. How old is Jia Liu on the same generation?

The grass on the grave that is longer than him is taller than a person.

He is senior, he is from the capital, and he is still an official. If the third grandfather does not help the poor people of the clan, it will be impossible to justify it.

The cartload of gifts brought outside is enough to be divided into ten families at most, what will the others do?
It can’t be blamed that Daquan didn’t explain this to his son, because Daquan hasn’t returned to his hometown for 30 years, and he doesn’t even know how many relatives there are in his hometown.

Looking at the longing eyes of a group of nephews and grandchildren, Jia Liu, the third grandpa, can disappoint the younger generation?
"Plug!"

"Master, here we are!"

Jia Liu dragged the man aside and told him to immediately send someone to Quwo County to go shopping again. Anyway, as long as the farmers could afford it, the food and drink would be dragged back in big carts.

Don't be afraid to spend money, it's just buying.

No matter what happens today, we have to support the Beijingers' presence.

Picking Ribasso is not his way of Jia Jia's son-in-law.

Yang Zhi promised to do it, but when he arrived at the door, Jia Youzhen stopped him, and then persuaded his third grandpa, "It's good that you've got your heart, you don't need to spend so much money."

He also said that the county seat is more than a hundred miles away from Jia's house.

"Well then,"

Considering the practical issues, Jia Liu decided to discount the cash and announced the payment in public.

It is not issued per household, but per person's hair.

A person's head is twelve taels, even if he is away.

In this way, it was more than 6000 taels, and even the ones knocked out by the children exceeded [-] taels.

It really shocked the Jia clan.

The money couldn't be distributed immediately, because Jia Liu only had bank notes on him, so he had to send someone to Pingyang Mansion to exchange the bank notes.

This matter is arranged for the personal captain Deb to take a few people to do it.

Finally, the ancestral hall quieted down.

Those who remained were a few uncles of the older generation, the ordinary class of the Ah generation, and the juniors of the Qing generation, basically all old men.

The oldest Jia Dafa was 84 and lost all his teeth. He ate a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake for half an hour.

Named according to seniority, Jia Liu should be called Jia'a or something, because the order of his Jia's family is "Longzong Hanzu, Da'a Qingyou".

First of all, under Jia Youzhen's arrangement, Jia's relatives in Beijing, on behalf of Jia Liu, offered incense and kowtowed to the ancestors enshrined in the ancestral hall.

The rows above the portraits are full of clothes from the Ming Dynasty, while Jia Hanfu’s side has become Manchurian clothes.

Then, under the leadership of the crowd, Jia Liu came to the tomb of the dog traitor Jia Hanfu with great grief.

Can you not be sad, I have not caught anything from a long distance, and first helped the poor of 6000 taels, can this business be done?

No wonder Jia Daquan didn't return to his hometown for more than [-] years, and he was afraid of spending money.

On the way, Jia Liu asked Youzhen why the Jia family's village was called Simazhuang.

Jia Youzhen said that people with the surname Sima lived in this village in the past, and later one of the ancestors of the Jia family fell into trouble here and became the son-in-law of the Sima family. .

"Later, the ancestor of Hanfu came back as a high-ranking official, and the members of the Sima family moved away. They wanted to change the name of the village, but the ancestor of Hanfu said that we should not forget our origin. If it weren't for the Sima family, there would be no Jia family. So the name of the village has not changed."

Just as they were talking, everyone arrived at the cemetery on the ground of Zhuangzi.

Just when Jia Liu was about to cry, Youzhen first pointed to a grave and said, "Third Grandpa, this is the grave of our ancestor."

It was only then that Jia Liu noticed that there were two large graves, one belonged to his grandfather Jia Han, and the other belonged to Jia Hanfu's father Jia Zongqing.

Jia Zongqing's tomb must have been rebuilt after Jia Hanfu developed, and Jia Hanfu's tomb was repaired by Jia Zuwang and his brothers.

The local yamen also allocated funds, because Han Fu was the crown prince and Taibao before his death, so the tomb was repaired very decently.

Surrounding these two large tombs, there is another circle of small tombs, one of which belonged to Jia Liu's grandfather Jia Zuwang.

Jia Liu didn't care who was buried in these graves, what he cared about was how Jia Hanfu's grave was hacked.

In the end, under Youzhen's guidance, I discovered that there was a century-old pine tree in front of the old man's grave. For some reason, it was struck by lightning, and it was on fire at that time. Since no one knew it at night, the tree was already burned when I found it the next day. up.

The lightning strike was so powerful that the old man's tombstone was also blown off, the ground was covered with scorched earth, and there were obvious crack marks on the grave.

"Third Grandpa, do you think we will hire someone to break the ground tomorrow, or what?"

Youzhen had to ask the third grandfather what he meant, because the third grandfather was the direct descendant of the ancestor of Han Fu.

If the tree is destroyed or the stele is broken, they can ask someone to repair it. The problem is that they don't know if the tomb was struck by lightning.

It is impossible to determine the extent of the damage without digging, but if you want to break ground, you must ask people what they mean.

"How can the great matter of the ancestors be left in the hands of others?"

Jia Liu had a sad face, but he couldn't squeeze out tears no matter what.

Because, digging the old man's grave was something he was all about.
