"Tianying, do you have any rules in your family? What's the place? Let him, a junior, chew here and say 1uan. ~"
Several old men there stood up, some staring at Yang Yi with an unpleasant face, and some looking at Yang Tianying with displeasure. Although the remaining row of people did not stand up, they could not say that they were much better at judging from their attitude. Most of them were ashen.
Looking at the angry attitude of the old men in these tribes, Yang Yi felt embarrassed. He thought that these people were surprised by his words before, so he couldn't help but get up.
But I didn't know that people didn't believe what he said at all, but regarded him as a child who didn't understand the rules and was chasing him.
Does this mean that if you pretend to be 13, you will become stupid?
Yang Tianying was also angry over there. Their own family knew that Yang Yi was not talking nonsense, but it was ridiculous to say it without any fault at the ancestral hall conference. And now Yang Yi is almost arousing the anger of the older generation, and taking him away quickly is the most important problem to be solved.
But before he could speak, a voice suddenly sounded next to him: "Wait a minute, can we say a few words?"
The voice came from the outermost position. Just now, people's attention was attracted by Yang Yi's "spoken words", and no one cared about the things outside the circle. Now I suddenly heard this voice and looked outside. It was a big surprise that there were many things every year, and this year it was very common.
But when the speaker emerged, the court immediately started to clamor: "Hey, where is this person? Why did you come to our ancestral hall conference?"
"That's right, which family is this? Not from our clan, aren't it?"
Around two thousand years ago, the rules and family rules of each clan were very different in the rural areas along the coast of the south. Some families still abide by the clan rules and family rules handed down by their ancestors. Even if it is a small matter, they cannot go beyond the line. Of course, some families have gradually changed their rules and family rules and laws as they have reproduced for generations, and are no longer as strict as before.
Specifically speaking of Xizhi Yang family, it is somewhat based on the meaning of meanness, without excessive and inhumane rigorousness, but it will not tolerate that some people will simply ignore the clan rules. [Ye*zi] [You*you]
Just like the current ancestral hall conference, let alone outsiders and other surnames, even women and children in the clan are not qualified to participate.
So when the Yang family members were not tribesmen, they immediately became excited.
The old man sitting at the entrance of the ancestral hall stood up to greet the young man in the clan and was about to drive out the fat man who was talking.
For a moment, the crowd was infuriated, and after the fat man talked, the Yang townsmen appeared again. There were seven or eight people around him, but they were not relatives of the clan, so they were even more angry. Some radical people surrounded him in a fierce manner.
"Wait a minute, what do you mean? This is the District Mayor Meng in the district!"
Seeing the Yang family townsmen rushing up with a bad expression, a man wearing gold-rimmed glasses following the fat man was anxious and quickly stopped him in front of him and said solemnly: "The old man from the Yang family came out to speak! District Mayor Meng came down to inspect you Xizhi."
Although the townspeople in Xizhi don’t take the town’s cadres seriously, they still have awe in the face of higher-level district government officials. Many people look back at the old man at the entrance of the ancestral hall.
When the clan elders there heard that it was the district government, they could not continue to sit upright. More than a dozen people looked at each other and also met under the leadership of an old man in the middle.
"Uncle II, I know a few of these people. They are indeed from the district government. When the district party secretary came to inspect last time, I saw one of them. I also had an impression of the person I was talking to when I went to the district to report." While the people on both sides met each other, a tall man with dark skin and dark skin came to the old man in the middle and whispered.
In the venue, the townspeople who were originally surrounded by seven or eight people gave up a way for them, and more than a dozen old people here also greeted them.
The man who looked like a secretary just now stood up first and smiled at the old people: "You are all happy in the Yang family. I wish you a happy New Year. This is the Mayor Meng of our district, in charge of the finance and economy of the district. This is a cultural celebrity in our Yuezhou, the boss of Siyue Culture Company and Yunzhong Bookstore, Rogo."
When Yang Yi heard the secretary's introduction, he couldn't hold it in his mind. He thought in his heart that Fatty Luo was quite like a thing outside, and he would do whatever he wanted to scare people. [Ye*zi] [You*you]
If he is a cultural celebrity, what level is he?
However, Yang Yi did not feel awe of these words, but it did not mean that the townspeople were unmoved. The old man with the most say in the middle of the house quickly stretched out his hand, shook the elegant but capable District Mayor Meng, and then turned to Rogo next to him: "Welcome, welcome, why are the leaders not spending the New Year at home? It's the eighth day of the lunar month, so I'm here to check the work?"
The first District Mayor Meng smiled: "It's already the eighth day of the lunar month. Of course, our government agencies have to start working, otherwise wouldn't they be slapping their backs by the fellow villagers?"
For a moment, I couldn't figure out the purpose of these big shots, so the old man in the middle quickly smiled and said, "District Mayor Meng is so harsh. Even if we are all ordinary people who have never seen any world, we know your contribution to the district! This, according to the principle, our parents came to check and we must receive it well, but it happened to be the meeting of the ancestral hall. Director Meng, please see..."
The old man didn't say it clearly if he asked someone to avoid it later, but his attitude was already very obvious.
"Oh, I want to apologize for this matter first. I'm here today, it's really for your Yang family's business."
As soon as the District Chief Meng said, the people around him who heard this were shocked and suspicious, especially the old people in the middle. Their faces were not only surprised, but also a little unhappy.
The awe of government officials is one thing, but they are somewhat intolerable to want to interfere in the family's internal affairs.
However, there were also a few who were quick-witted and had a quick mind. After thinking about what the fat man next to the district chief had just said, he looked at Yang Yi hiding at the back with a strange look.
It was said that it was for the things in the Yang family. Could it be for this child? This idea is really ridiculous, but it lingers in my mind.
"What does District Mayor Meng mean?" The old man in the middle didn't show any expression on his face, but he quickly calculated it in his heart and secretly guessed the purpose of this government official.
Meng Chang keenly noticed the hesitation and alertness of these old people, and smiled gracefully: "Oh, it's because Mr. Luo, who is by my side, is very interested in the natural appearance and historical heritage of your Xizhi, so he wants me to be an intermediary and hopes to do some tourism projects here."
Is it someone invited by Hailong? It’s enough to pass his opinions on the ancestral hall meeting. What does it mean to pull people at this time?
Many people mostly have the above idea, and some misunderstood the meaning of Meng Chang's words.
"Oh, Hailong just mentioned this matter at the ancestral hall conference. Everyone generally has no objection and is basically satisfied with the conditions for replacing houses and moving into the city. There are a few companies that don't want to leave, and everyone is doing their work."
Although Yang Hailong also recruited outsiders to the ancestral hall conference, since these people were either the immediate parents or the big bosses who would invest in the future, it was hard for the elders of the Yang family to say anything, so they simply told the results of the discussion so that these government officials and bosses who wanted to invest were relieved.
But he didn't notice that Yang Hailong's face had changed from blue to white, and from white to blue, but it had changed several times.
"Hmm?" Meng Chang smiled unexpectedly: "Change houses? Move into the city? We, Mr. Luo, have no intention of driving the villagers away. Have you misunderstood something?"
They looked at each other, wondering what the District Mayor Meng sold in Hulu. They also proposed to buy houses and land, and now they said they didn’t need to move?
Meng Chang also realized that everyone misunderstood the meaning of each other, so he smiled and explained: "This Mr. Luo is a friend of your Yang family, named Yang Yi. He is here, right? Let him and Mr. Luo come to explain it clearly to you!"
The group of people was completely stunned. What is this situation? The one who came to find Yang Yi? Yang Yi? Isn’t it the Yang Tianying family, the child who just got into trouble here?
For a moment, these old people couldn't answer the words. Yang Tianying didn't expect that his nephew grandson had actually recruited a district principal, and he was a little dizzy and didn't think about it. However, Rogo, who had been looking around for a long time, waved: "Xiaoyi, when are you going to hide? Why don't you come over to meet District Principal Meng quickly."
With Rogo's waving, all his eyes focused on the boy at the entrance of the ancestral hall.
There are also some fun-loving people's eyes blocked by the people in front of them. The residents of the small villages and towns are used to watch and are not careful about the clan elders and government leaders here, and they all squeeze in front.
They winked each other with great excitement, but did not dare to make too many sounds.
"Hello, District Mayor Meng." He stepped forward and nodded openly at Meng Chang. Yang Yi didn't say much. Although he knew the identity of the person in front of him, he couldn't act too casually when he first met.
Meng Chang said "um" with some dissatisfaction, pretending to be displeased: "I heard from my uncle that you call him Uncle Jiang! In this way, we should be the same generation. Why are you doing so polite? It came to my uncle's ears, and I thought I was bullying you!"
Yang Yiyizhi, but he didn't expect that Jiang Jianmo's niece was not at all, and he was speechless. In this way, wasn't he just putting himself on the fire?
Especially the two or three hundred people stared at each other in a daze, it seemed to be substantial, which made Yang Yi feel a little bit like a pear in his body.
Although the old people next to them were filled with their hearts, they could barely remain calm on their faces. After looking at Yang Yi who was neither arrogant nor humble, they didn't know what to say. As for the younger Yang family relatives below, they did not have the same concentration as the old people. They all took their eyes on Yang Yi, and their eyes were almost full of envy and jealousy.
Yang Hailong at the end was afraid to show up now. Although he did have dinner with the district mayor Huang Hai, he only invited the district mayor once through layers of recommendation and spent a lot of effort. And on that table, although he was the master, he had to be the one sitting in the last seat. District mayor Huang Hai did not say three words to him from beginning to end, that is, he smiled and signaled with a reserved smile when clinking glasses.
Now, the deputy district mayor Meng Chang was clearly showing off his carriage and horses as soon as he got up, and he looked extremely familiar with Yang Yi. How could this not be shocking?
And the most important thing is that the district mayor Huang Hai is about to come to an end in his career, and Deputy District Mayor Meng is young and powerful, holding financial power, and is in charge of the economic exhibition in District 1. After Huang Hai leaves, the call for being promoted is quite high.
How could he know this guy who had invited him several times but didn't even meet him and just asked someone to pass the message and declined?
