Zhang Ling felt more and more that it was not unreasonable for Li Xiang's father to completely capture Xiaodouzi's heart in a short period of time.

As long as there is any good thing, Xiaodouzi can arrange it immediately.

Even if she is an adult, if someone does this for her, she will probably fall easily.

Or because the Li family is the number one surname in Wuchuan.

There is still 2000 meters away from the gate of the ancestral hall in a straight line, and the traffic congestion has basically paralyzed the traffic.

They managed to find a parking lot and prepared to walk towards Li's Ancestral Hall.

Gulou South Street in the south of the city, about 300 meters westward, you can see the courtyard surrounded by long red walls.

The courtyard faces east from west, with mountains and rivers behind it. In front of the gate facing the street, there is a square of nearly [-] square meters.

There is a stage on the south side of the square, and a famous troupe is specially invited to perform on the stage.

Pass a stone arch bridge with a span of 50 meters.

On the stone railings on both sides of the bridge deck, there are various birds and beasts engraved with dragons and tigers leaping, looking like they are about to fly, and their images are lifelike.

When you cross the bridge, you can see two layers of seven or eight-meter-high stone steps leading to the front of the gate building.

On both sides of the entrance of the last stone steps stand two stone lions as tall as a person.

The gate tower of this ancient Li's ancestral hall is hidden under several vigorous ginkgo trees.

Climb up the stone steps, walk into the gate, and find that the ancestral hall building is a traditional inner courtyard style, with four entrances and three courtyards, and a central axis symmetrical layout.

The main buildings are arranged on the central axis from west to east, followed by Yimen (entrance hall), worship hall (enjoyment hall or sacrificial hall), and dormitory. All buildings are connected by corridors.

It also adopts an introverted multi-entry courtyard layout. The courtyard is deep, the order is high and low, and there are many rooms.

Every time you enter the wing rooms on the north and south sides of the courtyard, the corridors and verandas are arranged on both sides, which are symmetrical from left to right. When you look at the whole temple at the end, you can see the primary and secondary, quiet levels and rigorous layout.

If you stand at the highest point overlooking the panorama of the ancestral hall, the halls and corridors are surrounded by green trees, and the pavilions and halls are surrounded by flowers and plants.

There are also lifelike and exquisitely decorated wall reliefs.

Viewing it makes people feel like sitting on a cloud, traveling in a fairyland, so happy.

As soon as they stepped into the gate, a special person led the family of three to the Xiangtang and offered incense sticks first.

Enjoy the parish.

A place where sacrificial ceremonies and clan discussions are held for ancestor worship.

There is a screen door in the foyer, which is usually not opened, it is only opened during the Spring and Autumn Festival and when important people come to worship, and ordinary people can only go around from both sides.

Or because the festival has not officially started, the screen door remains closed.

The leader also wants to bring out Li Xiang's important position in this family sacrifice.

So he directly opened the screen door for Li Xiang.

Li Xiang had expected this, but it still gave Li Xiang a little surprise.

After all, there is no one in this world who doesn't like to be treated with special attention.

As soon as you enter the courtyard, eight wooden pillars are set up, which are called summoning banners.

Two old plum trees are planted on both sides of the courtyard. It is said that they have a history of more than a hundred years, and the imperial stele on the side of Xiangtang is the product of the same period.

Done.

The guide politely informed Li Xiang that the patriarch invited the two of them to go to the dormitory to discuss the next issue of writing and writing scores.

Hearing this, Li Xiang smiled slightly.

Sure enough, as Li Xiang expected, the patriarch would definitely want to chat with the two of them at this time.

The patriarch wanted to clarify the main purpose of this sacrifice to Li Xiang.

Zhang Ling and Li Xiang really don't want a child to be involved in the plots of adults too early.

Fortunately, Xiaodouzi was attracted by a handsome little girl as soon as he arrived.

The enthusiastic little girl looked like a little man, and aggressively grabbed Xiaodouzi and said that she was going to watch the shaman dance the house god.

In fact, the little girl thinks that the four sets of shaking bells (cast copper, spherical, hollow, and containing a projectile) used by the shaman to dance Buddha Bomi are quite interesting.

So I am going to join Xiaodouzi to make a pair for fun.

No matter what Xiaodouzi and the others are going to do?
It is also good to let the children together with the children, at the age of fooling around, to have some mischief.

After all, the child has never messed around at the age of fooling around, how sad such a childhood must be!

bedroom area.

It is used to enshrine the gods (ancestor tablets), and consists of six courtyards and nineteen halls.

The dormitory is a five-bay building, three bright and two dark, with a shrine in the middle of the hall.

The location where the ancestral tablets are placed in the niche is also the main hall of the ancestral hall.

The ancestral tablets listed in the middle are from the left of the great ancestor, the right of the great ancestor, the second left of the ancestor, and the second right of the test.

As soon as he entered the door, before he had time to see the layout of the furnishings and the people in the hall, Li Pan greeted him with a smile.

"Brother Xiang, you are finally here. The patriarch and everyone are waiting for you. Quick, follow me to this side."

Li Pan shook hands with Li Xiang intimately, and moved towards the patriarch while speaking.

Li Xiang subconsciously pulled Zhang Ling who was a little dazed, and found that her eyes were fixed on Li Xi who was standing beside the patriarch.

Li Xi smiled uncharacteristically, and went straight to Zhang Ling.

"Look, look, who did I meet today? It turned out to be my old classmate Zhang Ling!"

Then pouted again, shook his head and said:

"Oh, no. Look at my brain. Because this nasty new|crown|vaccine has become so forgetful. You and Brother Xiang's children can play soy sauce a long time ago. I should call you sister-in-law."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Li Xiang beside him and asked:
"Brother Xiang, you say yes."

Li Xiang was stunned for a while, and felt that this was basically the truth, so he nodded with a smile.

Zhang Ling felt a little uncomfortable with Li Xi's sudden overture.

I always feel that this woman must not be holding back any good farts.

But it's not good to casually embarrass this annoying woman in front of many senior members of the Li family.

So I can only force myself to smile and shake hands like old friends meeting and say:

"Yeah! My brain doesn't seem to be that good anymore. I remember Li Xi, you should have been imprisoned because of the Fengshui master incident. Why did you ask for leave and get out of prison today for the family sacrifice?"

Zhang Ling even admired her wording!

Can someone who is in prison still ask for leave?

A few bold peers who were present laughed "puchi".

Including the Li Pan on the side.

The patriarch's face was ashen, but he still maintained a slightly embarrassed smile.

Li Xi's smile froze for a few seconds, and he quickly laughed and said:
"Oh, it is indeed the fault of this damn|vaccine|vaccine. Misunderstood? There is no such thing. Sister-in-law, you must have remembered wrongly. After the wedding, I will sign up for an MBA at XX Business School. "

Is XX Business School?

This is an internationally renowned business school.

It seems that the patriarch of the Li family is really willing to spend money for Li Xi.

Zhang Ling looked at Li Xi in surprise and said:
"Really? I remember that you didn't like studying the most when you were in school. Now it's a painful experience and you decide to work hard? Well, well, sister-in-law, I am optimistic about you. You must work hard!"

These words really sound like an elder's, and they mean to care about the younger generation with earnestness.

Li Xi heard the uncoordinated twitch of the facial muscles.

Clearly, the woman was still not doing a good job at disguising her emotions.

"Come on! Okay, I will definitely work hard. I just don't know if my sister-in-law will give me a reward if I get a diploma."

Zhang Ling didn't expect that with Li Xi's status, she would lick her face and ask for a reward in front of everyone in the clan.

This feels a bit like learning from Xiaodouzi.

But Li Xi's request for benefits is obviously not as cute as Xiaodouzi's.

There is even a taste of over-acting in it.

If this reward is not given.

That Zhang Ling would definitely be taken advantage of by Li Xi and called her stingy.

Maybe it was another cold talk to Zhang Ling and Zhang Ling in front of everyone.

Yes, when this woman speaks ill of others, she never considers whether she will be affected by a third party.

If this reward is given, it will be less.

Based on what she knew about Li Xi, although it was unlikely to express her dissatisfaction in person, it would most likely ruin her reputation behind her back.

How could Zhang Ling give her this opportunity so easily?
She continued to say to Li Xi thoughtfully:

"Rewards? As you have said before, people like me who were born in a small family can produce too poor and old-fashioned things. Even if I intend to reward you, I am also afraid of tarnishing your noble identity. "

The derogatory keywords in Zhang Ling's retelling are all what Li Xi said to her before.

I remember the day before high school graduation, Li Xi generously invited all the teachers and students to have dinner together.

During the period, this woman gave a mobile phone to all the teachers present, and a custom-made gold-plated pen to all the students.

Of course, many teachers and students really didn't want to owe Li Xi.

They all returned gifts to Li Xi one after another.

This also includes Zhang Ling.

Maybe Li Xi did it on purpose.

Let Zhang Ling know that there is a gift-giving link two hours before the party starts.

Two hours is too hasty.

Zhang Ling only had less than 200 yuan in cash.

How difficult it is to prepare a satisfactory gift for Li Xi!

After thinking hard, she decided to make a classmate photo album for Li Xi herself.

But anyone who cares about classmates will feel that this gift is extremely precious.

I never thought that among all the students in the class, only she and Wang Li gave handmade products.

The difference is that Wang Li randomly bought a wooden sculpture that was almost similar to Li Xi on the street.

Li Xi didn't target Wang Li at the time, but instead regarded Wang Li as a best friend, talking about how much she disliked Zhang Ling's album.

But now Li Xi heard these familiar derogatory words again.

She obviously didn't understand the true meaning of Zhang Ling's words.

On the contrary, I feel that these words are Zhang Ling's way of lowering her status.

So as to achieve the purpose of flattering and praising her.

For this reason, Li Xi showed her unique arrogance even more complacently.

"Haha, it's good that you know! Then you don't need to prepare a reward gift for me. However, you husband and wife must be a host and invite me to dinner when the time comes."

Perhaps Li Xi's patriarch grandfather felt that his beloved granddaughter was really ashamed.

Finally, he couldn't continue to stand still and wait.

Zhang Ling pretended to be confused and looked at the kind old man who followed Li Xi and stood behind him.

"Li Xi, I'm afraid you're joking. For someone as prestigious as you, only the patriarch is qualified to organize a dinner to celebrate."

Zhang Ling's goal is to push off all meetings related to Li Xi as soon as possible.

To be honest, she really didn't want to take another look at Li Xi.

But Li Xi was a little angry, he didn't get the benefits he wanted, and wanted to find a breakthrough from Li Xiang who was on the side.

Before Li Xi could speak, Zhang Ling bowed politely and said with a smile:
"Patriarch, are you right in what I just said to Li Xi?"

The patriarch smiled kindly and motioned Zhang Ling to excuse him, but did not answer Zhang Ling's question directly, and then looked at Li Xi pretending to be angry and said:

"Xi'er, make a fuss! Don't you know what day it is? I can't help but let you make a fuss. Get back quickly and let your sister-in-law go in."

Zhang Ling called him a good guy in her heart.

She and Li Xiang did not receive a marriage certificate, nor did they get married at the church.

The old patriarch unexpectedly met for the first time like a joke among juniors.

She directly approved of her status as the daughter-in-law of the Li family.

When the patriarch spoke, although some people present were unhappy, they all consciously opened a way for Zhang Ling and Li Xiang to go in.

Near the ancestral tablet in the middle row, a table case was suddenly placed, and a thick family tree was faintly placed on the table case.

Li Xi didn't take advantage of Zhang Ling, so he stopped in front of the table and stopped Zhang Ling, saying:

"No! Zhang Ling, stop for me!"

At this time, I stopped pretending and called him by his first name a little arrogantly.

"Little sister, why do you still want to ask for a poor reward from me?" Zhang Ling looked at Li Xi pretending to be very puzzled, and then shook her head helplessly, "Oh, forget it. It's because of your persistence." I promise to give it to you."

She thought that Li Xi finally realized what he just said.

So he took this opportunity to shift Li Xi's focus.

Li Xi shook her head at this time, Zhang Ling thought she hadn't been able to fool around, but fortunately she had already thought of what to do during this time.

The big deal is to admit directly that what she said just now is exactly what she thought.

Because she believes that Li Xiang will always stand by her side no matter when.

Never thought that Li Xi raised his finger to Zhang Ling's nose, looked at the patriarch's grandfather beside him and said aggrievedly:

"No, Grandpa, as far as I know, this woman has not registered her marriage with Brother Li Xiang. Our family has never held a wedding for them. Why should I make way for her? Grandpa, I am your most beloved granddaughter. "

With that said, Li Xi rushed into the patriarch's grandfather's arms and acted coquettishly again.

OMG!

At this point, Zhang Ling found that she had overestimated Li Xi's IQ.

Didn't expect Li Xi to be entangled in such a thing?
However, it seems that she called Zhang Ling's sister-in-law first.

The patriarch vaguely heard the surrounding clansmen laughing at Li Xi in a low voice.

He didn't feel that Li Xi was losing face, but instead shouted at the other clansmen present.

Said that those who laughed at Li Xi had lost the face of his patriarch.

The old patriarch's double standard made all the clansmen present speechless and shook their heads helplessly.

The dormitory returned to silence.

The old patriarch then looked at the coquettish Li Xi with affection on his face and said:

"Okay. I know what Xi'er said. Grandpa is getting old, and he will leave sooner or later. Of all the children, grandpa is most worried about you."

Li Xi's eyes were full of sadness and reluctance, and he immediately pressed the old patriarch's mouth with his hand, pretending to be angry and said:

"Grandpa, Xi'er doesn't allow you to talk like that. You will live a long life."

Just this action made Zhang Ling understand.

Why is Li Xi so favored by the old patriarch?
The old patriarch shook his head with a happy smile on his face and said:

"So if grandpa is gone, you will depend on Brother Li Xiang for the rest of your life."

Then he straightened his chest imposingly, looked around all the clansmen present, and finally looked at Li Xiang with anticipation in his calm eyes and said:
"From now on, the future fate of my Li clan will be entrusted to you, Li Xiang."
