A few strong-mouthed women in the village spoke up and looked at the old lady with unkind expressions.
"What you say, old lady, is really interesting. Why do you mean we are going to force your family to death? Now it's you who are acting rogue. How come it's our fault?"
The old lady wanted to have a fit, but seeing that there were so many of them, she changed the subject: "You, you, why are you talking to the elders?"
Zhang Cui'e looked sarcastic and said disdainfully: "What kind of elder are you? Don't put gold on your face."
Zhao Xiaocui looked arrogant and glared at Zhang Cui'e with her hands on her hips: "Why are you talking to my mother? Do you want to fight?"
Zhang Cui'e looked at Zhao Xiaocui twice with a look of disgust on her face.
"Whenever the adults are talking, it's your turn as a hairless little girl to interrupt."
Zhao Xiaocui's face turned red with anger: "You..."
The captain took a look at the sky and saw that it was already getting dark, so he gave the order to expel the guests without hesitation.
"Okay, it's getting late, please leave."
The old man sat on the ground and couldn't get up. He looked at the captain with an accusing look and said, "We're not leaving. We've been traveling for several days just to get back. If you don't let us stay in the village, where else can we go."
The captain's face darkened a bit and he said, "If you don't leave, then we can only ask you to go out."
The strong men in the village stood up one after another and looked at their family.
He looked like he was going to drive them out at any moment.
The old man never thought it would be like this, and he was a little worried: "You, you guys..."
"You, I am your uncle according to seniority, you, how dare you."
The captain's face did not change at all, and he threatened: "It seems that you want us to invite your family out. We will be careful about you and the old lady, but I can't guarantee it for your sons and daughters."
Zhao Xiaocui was a little scared, shrank her neck and grabbed the old man's clothes: "Dad, how about we go."
The old man looked stubborn and yelled: "Why are we leaving? We are originally from Zhaojiacun. Now we want to come back and recognize our ancestors. Why do you drive us away?"
The captain still said the same thing: "I told you, the name of the elder you mentioned is not in the family tree."
At this time, his father Zhao Changzhu came over and said with a stern face: "Your lineage has long been expelled from the family tree. You no longer have a status in Zhaojia Village. Leave as soon as possible."
Zhao Changhong, also known as the old man, looked at Zhao Changzhu's fingers trembling slightly, with a bit of panic on his face: "You..."
"It turns out that I have been expelled from the family tree. How can I still have the nerve to come to my door and recognize my ancestors?"
"No, it's such a serious matter to be expelled from the family tree. The old man should have known it by looking at it, but he didn't mention it at all."
"Look at how big and small their families are, young and old. If no one talks about this situation, it will probably be our village's fault if the stalemate persists."
"I've been kicked out for decades, how come I still have the nerve to come here?"
The villagers who were watching guessed Zhao Changhong's thoughts in just a few words.
They thought that after all the words had been said, those who wanted to lose face should leave, but they underestimated the extent of Zhao Changhong's shamelessness.
"That was a mistake made by the older generation decades ago. It has nothing to do with us. Now we just want to come back and recognize our ancestors and have a place to settle down."
The captain had no time to waste time with them: "If this is the case, then let's report it to the public! Be safe."
It's not too early now. Everyone has to go to work tomorrow. We've been tired all day, but we don't have time to spend time here with the family.
When Zhao Changhong's family heard these two words, they were so frightened that they cried out: "Do you have to make things so terrible?"
The captain looked at the family with a serious face and said.
"Your household registration is not here, so there is no so-called recognition of ancestors. What's more, the names of your lineage were erased decades ago. At that time, there was no current household registration, so where did you come from?
Where are you going back to?"
Zhao Changhong's old face looked a little defeated, and he knew what he was telling the truth.
"It's getting late now. We have to wait until tomorrow to leave."
The captain frowned. This was not easy to arrange. No one knew much about their family. What if someone had some shortcomings?
Zhao Huaiguo walked up to the captain and suggested in a low voice: "Dad, how about we arrange a few people to take turns guarding them?"
The captain shook his head. They couldn't stay. Not to mention whether this would happen, just because of their family's behavior just now, they couldn't let go: "It's not appropriate. They don't have any women. What if..."
Zhao Huaiguo was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect his father to be so considerate.
What's more, they said they had been traveling for several days, so it is possible that they had never lived in the wilds on the roadside.
So the captain still had the same indifferent attitude: "This matter is not our business, please leave."
The old lady was trembling with anger. She pointed at the captain and started to show off: "Why are you so unsympathetic? We are a family of young and old, why do we only stay here for one night?"
The captain looked at them with a straight face and said: "If you don't leave, then I can only report it to the public! An."
Zhao Changhong was so angry that he stood up with his hands on the ground and said with a dark face: "Let's go."
He took the family with him and walked out, with the captain and a few middle-aged men following behind, to prevent them from sneaking in in the middle of the night.
They also specially asked a few young guys to find something to seal the road at the entrance of the village.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Changhong's family turned dark with anger.
Isn't this obviously a defense against their family?
Zhao Dali clenched his fists and said in a deep voice with all the muscles in his body tense: "Dad, what should we do now?"
Zhao Changhong was very angry, but he had no choice but to sigh and said, "Let's go back."
Zhao Xiaocui was unhappy: "Dad, I have to walk again, I'm exhausted."
Zhao Changhong had no intention of coaxing her now: "Then you go and die."
Zhao Xiaocui was completely stunned.
The old lady wanted to speak, but seeing the gloomy look on her old man's face, she didn't dare to speak.
Zhao Xiaocui reacted in the next second, screaming and shouting with a shocked look on his face.
"Dad, you actually asked me to die. I'm your daughter. How could you say that?"
He looked like he was about to roll around.
The old lady held Zhao Xiaocui's hand and comforted her: "Tui'er, don't make trouble. Your father is upset. Don't make your father unhappy."
Zhao Xiaocui was not comforted, but became even more angry: "Mom, didn't you hear that dad told me to die? I'm still not your daughter."
The old lady was very worried: "Tui'er, mother didn't mean this."
Zhao Dali's face turned ugly, he glared at her and growled: "That's enough, stop making trouble, it's not a shame."
Zhao Xiaocui was so angry that she pointed at her eldest brother Zhao Dali and yelled: "Zhao Dali, you dare to hurt me, you actually dare to hurt me."
