Xiao Yun listened to Chen Tong's instructions and frowned in dissatisfaction.
To be honest, she didn't want to follow in Xiao Shiyun's footsteps.
But before she could protest, Chen Tong couldn't wait to push her on the back.
Xiao Yun had no choice but to take a few steps forward, trying to squeeze through the crowd and get to Xiao Siyun's side.
But before she had taken a few steps, the aunties in front of her moved their shoulders and feet, making the crowd in front even more crowded.
She looked back at Chen Tong helplessly.
Chen Tong had no choice but to squeeze through and said to the person blocking the way in front of him: "Make way, make way, we have to pass."
An aunt turned around and said impatiently: "What are you doing? It's not your turn yet."
Chen Tong frowned, "We are with Qi Lin, we have to go over there."
The aunt reminded her, "You are standing here. Isn't Qi Lin here too?"
"No, Auntie, I am Qilin's wife, and our Yunyun is with them." She pointed at Xiao Yingzhi.
That auntie knows everything.
"I remember you. You and your mother have always followed Qi Lin to offer sacrifices on behalf of his brother's family. You always stood on this side!"
Chen Tong was a little annoyed when he was asked about offering sacrifices to ancestors for other families.
This has been one of her biggest concerns for many years.
But she didn't dare lose her temper in this situation, so she tried her best to control her temper and argue.
"That being said..."
The auntie also got angry.
"That's what I said, but we've been doing it this way for years. What are you trying to do by suddenly doing this?"
"If you're not convinced, why didn't you agree to the old man's promise when you married him? It's only been a few years since he passed away, and you're thinking of going back on your word?"
"Qilin has been praying on his brother's behalf for so many years. Yingzhi has always been the leader of our family. You are the elder, so don't break the rules!"
The aunt scolded Chen Tong so harshly that Chen Tong's face turned pale.
Xiao Qilin also glanced over and said, "Follow the rules. You all will follow me later."
Chen Tong wanted to die.
The mother and daughter's hopes were dashed, and they stared at Xiao Siyun opposite them.
At this time, Xiao Siyun was still confused, listening to Xiao Yingzhi telling her the necessary rules and asking her to follow him and do as he said.
This time, the ancestor worship was a sudden idea for Xiao Siyun to trace his roots back to his roots.
But they still have to be worshipped one by one according to seniority.
In Xiao Qilin's generation, there are only two brothers, him and his eldest brother.
But my eldest brother died young, before he even started a family and left behind any children.
Therefore, Xiao Qilin always offered sacrifices to the ancestors for his elder brother, while Xiao Yingzhi took over the incense for his own family.
After Chen Tong got married, Xiao Qilin always took Chen Tong and Xiao Yun, mother and daughter, to worship their elder brother's ancestors.
This was also one of the things that Mr. Xiao entrusted to Chen Tong before he died when Chen Tong got married.
When Chen Tong first heard this condition, she was very hesitant, but Mr. Xiao's words stimulated her.
Mr. Xiao said: "Si Yun's mother did the same thing in previous years."
The woman made a huge concession on the matter of ancestor worship, which was what Mr. Xiao valued most.
At the same time, he also made great contributions to Mr. Xiao's eldest son who died young.
Therefore, Mr. Xiao was particularly grateful to his daughter-in-law and was very considerate to her.
In order not to lose to that woman, Chen Tong had to grit his teeth and agree.
But at this time of year, she always felt uneasy.
Ultimately, it was my own mistake back then.
Chen Tong couldn't help but regret it secretly.
It was her turn. She gritted her teeth and took Xiao Yun out, following Xiao Qilin to complete the worship.
Now it was Xiao Siyun's turn.
Xiao Siyun had been observing the worship procedures of the elders in front of him, and followed his two brothers obediently without making any mistakes.
But when they finished their worship, Xiao Siyun kowtowed and was about to stand up when she caught a glimpse of Xiao Yingzhi winking at her.
She didn't dare to act rashly.
At this time, one of the oldest grandfathers stood up and waved to Xiao Qilin to come over.
Then he began to speak earnestly to the tablet about the people and events of this small family, praying for the protection of his ancestors.
The old father and three siblings kowtowed devoutly before retreating.
But this scene made Chen Tong's eyes burst with anger.
What rules?
It's clearly targeted!
It would be fine to just let Xiao Qilin go over and pay his respects again, but it would be impossible for me to let my daughter go over and join Xiao Siyun!
Chen Tong felt that she had to vent her anger, so she clenched her fists and continued to suppress it.
Some aunties nearby looked at Chen Tong with a furious look, wondering if there was something wrong with him.
When Mr. Xiao was still alive, he pretended to be virtuous and sensible, and offered sacrifices on behalf of the eldest brother in the family without any complaints.
But once Mr. Xiao left, he stopped pretending.
He kept persuading Xiao Qilin that he had done his best by offering sacrifices on behalf of his elder brother for so many years, and that he could just offer sacrifices for his own family in the future.
After being rejected, he kept thinking about forcing Xiao Yun to be brought to Xiao Yingzhi.
Every year when I come back, I think about adding Xiao Yun to the family tree.
funny.
It is not up to them alone to decide on compiling the family tree.
Even if you have money you can't do that.
The family tree requires a minor revision every thirty years and a major revision every sixty years, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive.
When the family tree was compiled, the village responded to the new reform and compiled a new round in order to add all the female names back in.
That’s a big deal!
Even Yingzhi's three siblings happened to be there at the right time and got their names recorded.
Why is Chen Tong so arrogant that she thinks the whole village has to accommodate her daughter just to compile a family tree for her daughter?
