Chapter 196 Change the Family Tree

An Jingsheng, the patriarch of the An family, took a sip of the tea in his hand, only to feel that his mouth was fragrant, and the taste was different from the one he drank when he came back last time.Can't help secretly feeling that this is the real tea.

Since the last time he came back to this Anfu to drink tea, he has been obsessed with it. Compared with these, what he drank in the past can't be called tea, it's almost called tree leaves.I heard that a pot of high-quality tea in the largest tea house in the town costs more than 50 taels of silver.Probably not as good as the one he drinks now.

Thinking of this, Patriarch An looked at An Chengkang with a bit of envy in his eyes, this kid actually has such good luck now.A few days ago, An Chengkang's former brother-in-law and sister-in-law came to the door with something to beg him to come forward and say that he was a brother of the same mother after all, and wanted to start walking with this brother again.

laugh.He rejected it at that time, and even scolded the couple twice, what kind of brother?What did you do earlier? When An Chengkang was at home, he didn’t have enough food and clothing. He started working when he was very young. How old is he? I’m afraid that when he grows up, he will divide the family property and call Ren Yazi to sell him. , forcing the younger brother to do nothing but to protect himself.At that time, why didn't they say that they were blood brothers.

Now that the people have passed away through adoption, they returned 50 taels of silver, agreed that they would never recognize each other in the future, and even established a document.He'd be ashamed to come to the door to mention his real brother, saying that they raised him so hard when they were young.

Such shameless and embarrassing words can also be said.At that time, he kicked people out.

"Chengkang, did your mother say what it is, why don't she say it herself, and send people to each house to tell it and it's over?"

The patriarch drank the tea in the cup in one gulp, and asked curiously.Seeing that someone's teacup was empty, the servant next to him immediately served new tea in a well-trained manner.

"This little nephew knows about it. It has something to do with the rumors about my parents and sisters spreading outside. Because the rumors are too outrageous, three groups of bandits were attracted and tried to sneak into our house in the middle of the night the day before yesterday. Fortunately, the nursing home at home Be vigilant, and stop people at the door, so that my mother's peace is not disturbed. Later, our housekeeper ordered those bandits to be sent to the county government, and the county master only found out the reason after interrogation."

An Chengkang looked sad and angry, "This reason made my mother angry and blamed herself all day yesterday."

"It makes sense for your mother to be angry, why did you blame yourself?"

Hearing that bandits had visited Wenyang Village, the patriarch was quite frightened.But then he understood, everyone said that the wealth is not revealed, Jing Yuan's daughter-in-law came back this time, she is rich and powerful, and the nearby five miles and eight towns, which ones are secretly jealous and have many speculations in private.He sighed, if this kind of thing happens a few more times in the future, don't let the peace of other people in the village be affected, what will happen if the people in the village can't be protected like that.

"If you talk about your eldest sister outside, there are indeed many things. Even people in our clan are suspicious. I haven't seen her come back these years. This time her mother didn't talk about her when she came back. , I don’t know how she is now, where is she?”

"At first, my mother was afraid that the elder sister's current identity would be spread, and people would keep coming and disturb the cleanliness of the villagers, so she never said anything." An Chengkang was a little frustrated.

"Is there anything wrong with Ruyi's current status?" Fourth An couldn't help asking.

"Fourth. What nonsense are you talking about? What do you mean you can't say it?" An's second stared at his younger brother.

Fourth An was in a hurry, and quickly explained, "I didn't mean that, I just wanted to ask what kind of situation Ruyi is in now, and after all, she is also the daughter of our An family. It doesn't matter what your identity is."

"It's not that I can't say the status of my elder sister, but it's a bit complicated, and it's a long story. I can't explain it clearly. It's better to wait for my mother to come." An Chengkang scratched his head, not ashamed to tell the elders present In fact, he didn't know much.

"Why isn't your mother here yet?" Some clan elders got a little impatient.

"Uncles and elders, forgive me. I won't salute you in my official uniform."

Mrs. Mo walked in from the door, beside Mrs. An Yuan and the four maidservants.She was wearing Mrs. Yipin's imperial dress and imperial crown.Walking step by step, there is a compelling aura of nobility coming towards you.Compared with the old woman in ordinary clothes they saw last time, she looked much more noble and wealthy.

Even though everyone present was an inexperienced farmer in the countryside, they could still understand the word "警明".

"Daughter-in-law Jingyuan, what do you mean?" the patriarch looked at Mo Shi, his eyes flashed, and he asked hesitantly.The others also looked at her with puzzled faces, eager to know the answer.

"Actually, our wife is Yipin Yiguo's wife who was personally appointed by the emperor." Xiang Qi spoke directly from the side.

"Mrs. Yipin Yiguo, the emperor personally appointed?" Everyone exclaimed.

"Daughter-in-law Jingyuan, are you serious?" The patriarch was stunned for a long time, until Mrs. Mo walked to the main seat in the hall and sat down, then he realized that he stood up abruptly.

Mrs. Mo nodded, "Speaking of which, this imperial order on me is due to my daughter and son-in-law. You have probably heard of Ruyi's husband-in-law, that is the newly promoted Duke of Zhen, Liu Heng, Duke of Liu."

"Liu Guogong is actually Ruyi's husband-in-law? But I haven't heard that the order can be granted to the mother-in-law?" The patriarch of the An family looked puzzled, and accidentally said the latter sentence, which was only in his heart. To speak out.

"I invited the patriarch here today because I actually have something to ask the patriarch to do." Hearing what the patriarch said, Mo couldn't help but smile. What he said was not true, but it was hard for her to tell him that it was for her son-in-law. "Baby" was exchanged with the emperor, so I can only say: "There is indeed another reason for this. Today I remembered that the patriarch opened the ancestral hall and changed the genealogy."

Seeing that Mo's family didn't want to continue, the patriarch didn't want to ask more questions, so he could only say: "There is such a big happy event in our clan, it is right to open the ancestral hall and change the genealogy. Daughter-in-law Jingyuan, I will find an auspicious day in the genealogy as soon as I go back." Add a note to it, and there should be a note in our clan who has such a well-married aunt."

"I asked the patriarch to open the ancestral hall and change the family tree to delete Ruyi from our family tree." Mo sighed.

"Why is this?" The patriarch of the An family was taken aback, and then his face turned dark, and he immediately refused without hesitation, "This is not good, although Ruyi is not in the blood of our family, after all, you and Jing Yuan worked hard to raise them. It's also officially recorded in her name. She can't break ties with our clan just because her husband-in-law is in a high position now. Forgive me for not agreeing."
