From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 423
It's not aimed at Mei Xin, but it's a matter of fact, not to mention that the direct line has indeed not taken money from the clan for many years.And even Mrs. Mei pretended to be dead when she rebuilt the family temple and ancestral hall, and refused to pay a tael of silver, and even turned a blind eye to it.

When I think about it, I get angry, and when I remind everyone, everyone is silent, and the laughter and laughter are gone, replaced by righteous indignation.However, Mei Xin is a junior after all, and, she was just a child back then, no matter how much Mrs. Mei did, it has nothing to do with her, let alone her fault.

Instinctively turned his head to look at Mei Xin, seeing that there was no smile on her face and seemed to be angry, the clan elder coughed heavily and then glared at the two who had just spoken.Signaling them to shut up first, he smiled awkwardly and said, "Mei Xin, they...they..."

As soon as the words came out, Mei Xin stood up, first bowed to the elders of the clan, then bowed her hands and apologized to everyone present: "All uncles, listen to me. I am young, and I am not very clear about the affairs of the clan. But no matter how much money the direct branch owes the clan, I promise to settle it all at once. Not only that, the clan will never default on the money needed in the future, and will not find excuses to make excuses. As for the children from school to martial arts Learning and practicing martial arts on the court, three meals a day will naturally be eaten in the palace as before."

Having said that, Mei Xin paused for a moment, looked down at the toe of her shoe, and immediately changed her tone and smiled slightly: "Indeed, I'm not a man, and my eldest brother will be the head of this family from now on, but please rest assured, uncles and brothers, whether it's me Or my elder brother is a person who keeps what he says, and as a descendant of the Mei family, he should abide by the ancestral precepts. My elder brother is the eldest son, the future King of Liang, and he will definitely do what I say today. So, uncles Brother, don't worry, if there is any change in the future or if my elder brother changes his mind and doesn't keep his promise today, everyone can come to me."

"A gentleman's promise is worth a thousand dollars. I, Mei Xin, have never denied what I said. If the big guy still doesn't believe it, we can make a statement as evidence, and even take it to the government to keep it for the record."

She can still support the remains of the soldiers of the Mei family army, not to mention these relatives who are in the same line, not to mention it is just the husband's repairs and three meals a day, which don't cost much money.As for the money owed to the family before, it should be given more. As a descendant of the Mei family, this is her duty and responsibility.

Maybe it was because she promised too readily, or maybe they were bothered by the bad debts of more than ten years, and they were suddenly resolved, and everyone was stunned.Hush each other, you look at me, I look at you, as if I can't believe it.

It is too heavy to leave a record for the record. The elder of the clan said immediately after hearing it: "The Mei family has always talked with one mouthful and one nail. I believe in Mei Xin and Jin Ze. Mei Xin, please sit down quickly." , you uncles and brothers don't have any malicious intentions, nor do they want to embarrass you, they just..."

"The ancestors I know, we are a family, and the family does not need to be so polite. I have little experience in my youth, and if I do something wrong or say something wrong in the future, I would like to ask my ancestors and uncles and brothers to be more polite. Worry about it. Tell me too, and I will definitely change it!" Mei Xin feels very sorry for having caused them to die together in her previous life.Of course, she intends to make amends, but she will not discriminate between right and wrong, and if someone commits crimes, cheats, kidnaps and violates the precepts of the ancestors, she will never forgive them lightly.

Once again moved by her modesty, sincerity, and courage, everyone nodded and praised her, and the clan elder also said: "I used to worry that your father was busy and neglected to discipline you brothers and sisters on weekdays. Now it seems that it is my fault." Think about it, your father taught you very well, and you are very much like your grandfather."

Thinking of the Mei Changxiu clan elder who died young, he sighed deeply, his eyes dimmed, and he waved his hand to signal everyone to sit down.

She had never seen her grandfather in her previous life, and Mei Xin didn't know what he looked like, but she had heard many stories about him.Knowing that he is a smart, open-minded person with a broad mind, she smiled slightly and said: "My grandfather killed countless enemies in his life. How can I compare with him. Don't praise me, my ancestors. I should be proud if I praise me. My ancestors, Don't worry, our family will get better and better in the future."

During the conversation, Mei Zhongkai came in, and after some pleasantries, he talked to everyone present with a smooth face.

After all, the clan elder was getting old, and he had talked a lot all morning, Mei Xin saw that his face was tired, so she asked someone to carry the couch over.

He was lying down, and these juniors were all sitting, chatting happily around him.

Seeing everyone talking about the set of sword techniques created by the ancestors of the Mei family, Mei Ruoying couldn't help it.Walking a few steps in front of Mei Xin, she blurted out: "My niece, I heard that you are proficient in martial arts, eighteen types of weapons, can I ask you for advice?"

With a swish, she pulled out a Miao Dao she was carrying on her back, and Mei Ruoying wanted to ask Mei Xin for advice.

Mei Xin was stunned, and the clan elder immediately scolded: "Nonsense, what time is it now, and it's not in the martial arts arena, what do you ask for advice? We're going to eat right now, why don't you hurry up and put away the knife."

After scolding, the clan elder looked at Mei Xin with a smile as if changing his face, and said: "This child is a martial idiot, and I have been spoiled by it on weekdays. Don't mind, she is just like this. Don't look at her as a girl." , girl, besides eating and sleeping, all I think about is knives."

That is to say, here, if you were a guest in another place, you would draw your sword in front of the owner, and you would have been beaten out long ago.

Because Mei Xin also came here in this way when she was a child, she was also like her, she said indifferently: "It's a good thing, how could I care about it. Aunt Tang, I am familiar with many weapons, but I can't claim to be proficient in all of them. You can ask for advice whenever you want, but it’s inconvenient for me to be pregnant right now, so I’m afraid I can’t fight Aunt Tang. If Aunt Tang doesn’t mind, I have some swordsmen under my command. There are similarities.”

After finishing speaking, Mei Xin directly called Cardamom to come in.

After Dou Kou saw the ceremony, Mei Xin introduced to Mei Ruoying: "Her name is Dou Kou, and she is a sister who grew up with me. We have been practicing martial arts together since we were young. If my aunt wants to ask for advice, I can let you go to the martial arts field tomorrow." She fought against you. It's just that her moves are fierce, and all she has learned is killing skills. I don't know if Tang Aunt minds?"

Cardamom is the best in martial arts among the four, and her sword skills are also very exquisite. If she can learn one and a half moves from her, she will definitely benefit a lot.

How could Mei Ruoying mind if someone was willing to challenge her? She couldn't even ask for it.So, almost out of mouth: "Okay, I will come tomorrow morning, you are ready, don't let me."

She thought she was good at martial arts, but she only found out not long ago that her brothers gave way to her, which made her very angry and annoyed.
