Chapter 106 Steel Straight Man
Since you are visiting your sixth uncle, you must do the etiquette you should do. In this regard, as the helmsman of the Bai Group, Bai Zhendong is naturally clear about it.
The sixth uncle, whose real name is Bai Jinyuan, is one of the seventeen sect masters in the Bai family. In fact, the reason why he calls him the sixth uncle is not because he ranks the sixth brother in the family.
In fact, the sixth uncle is not the sixth uncle. The origin of the title "sixth uncle" is because he is the head of the sixth villa.
The so-called Fangtou means the head of a certain branch of the family. The Bai family has been passed down for hundreds of years. According to the genealogy, the ancestors are divided into six "fangs", namely the main family of the direct line, and the second to six houses born by the concubine.
Under the ancient patriarchal system, the legitimate family and the illegitimate family have a world of difference. The legitimate family lineage is the unquestionable first heir of the family and controls the family's ancestral property; while the second to sixth ancestral family members born by the concubine will never be able to obtain the inheritance rights of the family. The only way out is to divide the family, split it out from the corpus, form a lineage, and then arrange the inheritance in the form of a "small ancestral" according to the patriarchal system.
But the Bai family is not an ordinary family after all. The Yuling family is not just "justified". It also depends on whether the descendants have the talent to become the spirit master. If the descendants are born in one lineage and fail to maintain their advantages in talent, it will be difficult for the patriarchal system alone to establish their leadership position in the family.
Over time, small sects surpass the big sects, and it will be difficult for the big sects to have leadership again.
In the history of the Bai family, there have been several cases where the small clans gave birth to geniuses and overwhelmed the large clans, which gradually made the large clan unable to control the entire Bai clan. As a countermeasure, in order to maintain the youthful vitality of the Bai clan, abandoning secular patriarchal dogmas and implementing the sect and elder system became an inevitable choice. In addition, after a hundred years of inheritance, the so-called sect and elder clans had long faded the blood ties with the continuation of time. Therefore, with the establishment of the "Sect and Elderly Meeting", the entire Bai family bid farewell to the tradition of being in power.
At present, there are 17 elders of the Bai Family Sect. Except for the house head of each room, the remaining eleven are all held by powerful or respected old men in the clan.
As the head of the sixth house, the sixth uncle naturally won a seat. In fact, the sixth uncle's own strength is also extraordinary. He belongs to Mr. Zong who has both "noun" and "strength". Similar to him is Bai Xiao's grandfather Bai Sihong, who is the head of the three-bedroom house, but he is also a powerful spirit controler. On the contrary, Bai Xiao's second grandfather Bai Sijin was appointed as a candidate for strength.
Bai Zhendong attached great importance to Bai Xiao’s favor to his sixth uncle, so he naturally could not lose his etiquette.
...
After dinner, Bai Zhi went to school with her schoolbag, and Bai Xiao also went out with Bai Zhendong.
Baixian Mountain, Baixian Village.
Compared with the slightest filthiness of modern industry in the prosperity, the air here is still clear and clear, exuding the old and bringing new things, giving people a leisurely state of mind sitting alone in the secluded bamboo grove.
Parked the vehicle in the parking lot, and Bai Xiao and Bai Zhendong walked into the village. It was almost nine o'clock at this time, and Bai Xiao first visited his uncle Bai Zhenye's home.
Bai Zhenye was not at home at this time, and his aunt Yu Qingshu was a dignified and virtuous woman. When she saw Bai Xiao visiting her door, she had been waiting at home for a long time and couldn't help but lit up.
Regarding Bai Xiao, she heard Bai Zhenye say a few days ago. When she heard it, she was amazed at the first time, and then she had a little expectation. However, Bai Xiao came in a hurry yesterday and did not meet her. At this time, she looked at Bai Xiao in elegant outfit and couldn't help but look surprised. She couldn't believe that the person in front of her was Bai Xiao.
"aunt……"
Bai Xiao screamed softly, and a clear and soft voice came out of her mouth. She felt that she must have scared her aunt now.
"Oh Xiaoxiao, please come in quickly." Yu Qingshu reacted and hurriedly invited her into the door.
Unlike his stepmother Zhao Jie, Yu Qingshu was born in a wealthy family in the capital. Her parents' family background was also very strong, and her words and deeds were a little elegant and luxurious. Because it was her uncle's family, Bai Xiao was not too reserved. After entering the door, she looked around and happened to see her cousin Bai Yuchen wearing a white exercise and obeying the upstairs. She thought she wanted to go to the yard for morning exercises.
The two of them greeted each other, and Bai Xiao felt a little moved and was ready to follow. However, considering that today's visit was mainly due to her identity, as the protagonist today, she obviously couldn't leave so casually, so she stopped.
Yu Qingshu didn't know what she was thinking. After pulling Bai Xiao to look at her carefully for a long time, she smiled gracefully and patted Bai Xiao on the shoulder.
"Xiao Xiao, I really didn't expect to see you for a while and become a beautiful girl."
Bai Xiao had nothing to say about this, so he had to repay his elegant smile.
Yu Qingshu smiled and said, "Yuchen went to the backyard to practice martial arts, why don't you go and play with him."
"Well, then I'll go there."
Bai Xiaoru received a general amnesty and quickly smiled and nodded to her aunt, then walked towards the yard.
The backyard of the Bai family is a flat floor with a thin soft carpet, which is just for practicing. When Bai Xiao came to the backyard, Bai Yuchen was practicing the boxing skills of the Bai family seriously.
Each move is quite organized, and with a white dress and a handsome face, it is really white dress and snowy, and it is so beautiful. If it were seen by an ordinary woman, I would definitely scream obsessively and shout at the male god. Of course, Bai Xiao is not an ordinary woman, so she stood three meters away and watched without any fluctuations in her heart, but she was a little envious of her cousin's boxing skills.
After watching for a while, she suddenly remembered something, took out her cell phone and started filming at Bai Yuchen.
She felt that if these pictures survived, they could be used as teaching videos. In this regard, she had no doubt about her cousin's achievements.
A few minutes later, Bai Yuchen finished a set of boxing techniques, looked at Bai Xiao and said, "Let's practice together?"
"Yes, but don't let go of water this time!"
"Okay!" Bai Yuchen nodded to her solemnly.
So, Bai Xiao put away his cell phone, put his coat to the side, and stepped forward with light steps, then started fighting with Bai Yuchen.
It’s a pity that Bai Yuchen said he would not let the water go, but that was really not letting the water go. He fought with a master in the "half-step Yuantai" realm. Isn’t that looking for abuse?
Before the two had fought, Bai Xiao was thrown out with a few moves. She felt herself flying up and then fell to the ground.
Fortunately, the ground was soft and it didn't hurt at all. However, the fall was awkward enough. Bai Xiao bit his silver teeth and his unyielding temperament suddenly emerged.
"Come again!"
"good!"
After several rounds of unsurprising failures, Bai Xiao breathed slightly and patted the dust on his body. The two ended today's competition.
"Brother, you won't be able to find a girlfriend in the future." His eyes fell on Bai Yuchen's handsome face, and Bai Xiao felt a little jealous. It turned out that although she was not as handsome as him, she was not bad, but now she was a little inexplicably melancholy.
"Why?" Bai Yuchen was surprised and looked at his cousin suspiciously.
"It's okay." Bai Xiao grinned and gave him the title of "Straight Steel Man" in his heart.
Although Bai Xiao didn't want others to give in because she was a girl, she was shocked to find out from Bai Yuchen's various behaviors that her cousin had no idea of pitying her.
If he told him not to let the water go, he would really not let the water go. At least he had some care for her yesterday.
If this continues, she is really worried that her cousin will not be able to find a girlfriend in the future.
The two returned to the house. At this time, Bai Zhendong, Yu Qingshu and others were chatting. Bai Xiao heard from a distance that the topic was about him, and his uncle Bai Zhenye had also returned.
Seeing Bai Xiao and Bai Zhendong coming in, Bai Zhendong waved to Bai Xiao and said to Bai Zhenye: "Then I will take Xiaoxiao to visit the other families first, and I will stay there soon."
Bai Zhenye nodded in understanding: "Go, remember to come here for lunch."
Bai Zhendong nodded and then took Bai Xiao away. After that, they would visit his second grandfather Bai Sijin's family.
Bai Sijin is Bai Sihong's younger brother, and she also has two sons and one daughter. The eldest son Bai Zhanpeng has a son who was in college and Bai Xiao's cousin; the second daughter Bai Yunke is married and has a son and a daughter, both in high school; the younger son Bai Zhanfei has the latest marriage and has a son who has just entered elementary school, which is a naughty child.
Next, Bai Xiao followed Bai Zhendong to visit his second grandfather's family one by one, and there was awkward and warm reception there. Fortunately, the children of his peers were not around, so there was less embarrassment. But even so, facing the care of a group of relatives and elders, Bai Xiao could only stand aside with a smile, quietly, and accept their enthusiastic and hot eyes.
After finally breaking free from the "torture", Bai Xiao let out a long sigh and felt like she had been on the execution ground. Then she walked through the curved alley and came to the door of her sixth uncle's house.
