Chapter 659: Come prepared
Among the eight major families in the Han and Tang Dynasties, which family has not been passed down for hundreds of years?
Nowadays, these eight aristocratic families have survived countless wars and tribulations, and many aristocratic families have long since disappeared in the torrent of history, but these eight aristocratic families are the most dazzling and glorious today.
Some of the eight great families have always been prosperous, while others are rising stars that have risen in the past hundred years, such as the Song family, the Gu family, the Cao family, etc.
Among them, the Su family and the Li family have the longest history. Their correct choices at many key points in history have enabled the family to still stand at the top of the Han and Tang federations. Of course, this is also due to the flourishing branches of the two families.
You can diversify your investments at many times to ultimately obtain the greatest value.
This is why the Su and Li families are now the leaders among the Han and Tang federation families. The two families have been competing with each other for decades, and each has taken the lead for decades. Recently, the Su family has steadily suppressed the Li family.
Like the Su family and the Li family, a large family that has been passed down for hundreds of years, the family has long been branched out and has many branches. In the end, the only ones who have the right to speak in the family are the strong branch families, and most of their affection for each other has already been eliminated.
Beyond the five servers.
In other words, except for the same surname and the same blood, they are actually no different from strangers. The only thing that maintains their relationship is common interests.
Therefore, Su Qin actually has no feelings for these branches of the Su family, and these branches also have no feelings for Su Qin. They all know each other well but they have to play around. Who has the same interests and goals?
In the ancestral hall, the ancestor worship ceremony has begun.
Uncle De, Uncle Qing and others are not only responsible for the daily routine of the ancestral hall, but are also the worshipers of the ancestral hall. They are currently carrying out the ancestor worship ceremony step by step and following the procedures.
Under the leadership of Su Minghe, everyone in the Lingnan Su family began to worship their ancestors. Some of the young people had never been here before, and some had only been here once, so they were curious and unfamiliar with it.
Even though it was just a simple family, the procedures were complicated. It took a full hour for the ancestor worship ceremony to be completed.
After the ancestor worship is over, it’s time to visit the graves. Compared with the ancestor worship ceremony, visiting the graves is relatively simple, because you only need to visit the graves of the elders you want to visit, unlike the ancestor worship ceremony where you have to offer incense to the ancestors one by one, etc.
Visiting the tomb is the sole responsibility of the Su family in Lingnan. The tomb-keepers can lead them in to find the corresponding tomb. Mr. Han and other tomb-keepers are waiting outside.
Half an hour later, everyone in the Lingnan Su family came out of their ancestral grave. It was already three o'clock in the afternoon, and everyone in the Lingnan Su family was so hungry that they couldn't hold on any longer.
When Su Minghe came out with everyone from the Su family in Lingnan, Mr. Han greeted him with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, brother. A luncheon has been prepared in the ancestral hall. I guess you are all hungry too, so let's go down early.
.”
"I'm getting older and I really can't stand the trouble. Fortunately, I have these children with me and let them recognize the gate of our Su family's ancestral tomb. This is the root of our Su family." Su Minghe said with a smile,
They are also all stage words.
Mr. Han smiled and said: "This is what it should be."
Although Mr. Han is the leader of the tomb-keepers of the Su family, he is still respectful in front of the head of the branch clan like Su Minghe. Although he only obeys the orders of the clan leader, the annual budget of the tomb-keepers of the Su family is still determined by the Elder Council.
pass.
On the way from the ancestral grave to the base camp of the mausoleum guardians, Su Minghe and Mr. Han chatted and laughed happily. They talked about old things and family feuds. Naturally, they also talked about the old patriarch who was far away overseas and Su Qin who had returned home.
Su Minghe laughed and said, "I heard that Su Qin's kid has returned to China to study at a university in Chang'an? I wonder if I've seen him before?"
If Su Minghe can take the initiative to mention Su Qin, then he knows everything that needs to be known. However, there are some things that the Su family has not announced to the public, so they will not take the initiative to mention them, such as Su Qin's injury.
But Su Minghe didn't mention it, but Su Yongfu behind him couldn't help but said: "Mr. Han, I also heard that Su Qin was injured in an accident some time ago. During this time, he was recuperating in our ancestral hall. Is there such a thing?
What's going on?"
Su Minghe was asking about ordinary things, but Su Yongfu was a bit questioning. This guy was really domineering, and he didn't take Mr. Han seriously at all.
As soon as Su Yongfu finished speaking, his grandson Su De, who had just returned from studying in the United States, snorted coldly: "Since Su Qin is at the ancestral hall and my grandfather comes to the ancestral hall to pay homage to his ancestors and visit their graves, why doesn't he come out to greet my grandfather?"
After Su De said about his eldest granddaughter Su Han, he also said: "Su De, you think he is you. He is the eldest son of our Su family. Maybe there is a young master's book waiting for us to see him."
Everyone in the Su family in Lingnan started to blame Su Qin. The younger he was, the more they took Su Qin seriously, as if Su Qin, the eldest son of the Su family, was nothing in their eyes and was not as noble as the Su family in Lingnan.
Mr. Han was a little angry, but his face was calm and nothing could be seen. Fortunately, Su Qin didn't come over, otherwise he would have been ridiculed by the Lingnan Su family.
It was not surprising that they knew that Su Qin was at the ancestral hall. The ancestral hall had many eyes and ears, and the Lingnan Su family had countless people planted there, so they naturally knew about it.
Judging from the tone of everyone in the Su family in Lingnan, they are prepared. It depends on whether Su Qin can catch the move.
Su Minghe said calmly: "What are you talking about? That is the eldest young master of our Su family."
Mr. Han said in a deep voice: "Brother, I wanted to wait until you came down from the mountain before talking about this, but I didn't expect you to know about it in advance. The young master is indeed at the ancestral hall, but he was injured some time ago, and he is somewhat unwell and cannot move around easily.
But the young master knows that you are coming to the ancestral hall to worship your ancestors, brother, and is already waiting below."
Su Minghe nodded and said: "Oh, I haven't seen this child for some years since his grandfather took their brothers and sisters overseas. I didn't expect to meet him here by chance. I don't know if he can recognize me?
"
Mr. Han chuckled and said, "You are all elders of the Su family. The young master has mentioned many times that he wanted to visit my brother in Yangcheng, but he was unable to make the trip because of trivial matters. Don't be angry, brother."
Su Minghe chuckled and said: "Then let's go down and don't keep the children waiting too long."
Everyone seemed to go down the mountain in a friendly manner and headed to the guest courtyard. This was also the place that Mr. Han had prepared for everyone in the Lingnan Su family to rest tonight. It was not far from Su Qin's courtyard.
When Mr. Han took everyone from the Su family in Lingnan down the mountain, Chen Qiming sent someone to the yard to tell Su Qin that they were going down the mountain. At the same time, he also reported to Su Qin how many people from the Su family in Lingnan came this time and what their identities were.
After hearing the news, Su Qin stood up happily and said, "Let's go, let's go meet the Lingnan Su family."
Yunmiao Yunruo was left in the courtyard. Black Rose and Ma Qian accompanied Su Qin to the guest courtyard nearby. As a junior, Su Qin naturally had to greet Su Minghe, the head of the Lingnan Su family, at the door.
After Su Qin waited at the entrance of the guest courtyard for more than ten minutes, he saw Mr. Han leading the Lingnan Su family from a distance. Su Qin's face immediately filled with smiles.
