The day before the results were released, the head of the Shen family personally presided over the naming ceremony of Shen Xingwan and Shen Mochen.
Shen Xingwan was woken up from bed early in the morning by several maids and took a bath and burned incense.
Put on the clothes that the Fourth Young Madam sent personally. It is said that they are the clothes that the Shen family must wear on important occasions.
The violet dress has a polar skirt, elegant and elegant, and the body is embroidered with large violet flowers.
Shen Xingwan walked in the front, followed by four older maids and eight younger maids. The group of people walked forward quietly and solemnly.
Outside the ancestral hall of the Shen clan, many Shen clan members were standing.
Shen Mochen, still dressed in white, stood at the front and stared at her.
Many people also looked over.
Shen Xingwan walked over without squinting and stood side by side with Shen Mochen.
"Let's begin." The patriarch said loudly.
The door of the ancestral hall was opened, with the clan leader and several clan elders in front, followed by Shen Xingwan and Shen Mochen.
Others are waiting outside.
First, they offered incense and kowtow to the ancestors of the Shen family, and then asked for the family tree. The patriarch himself took a pen and added the names of the two people on the family tree.
"I hope you can help each other at all times and not lose the reputation of the Shen family!" the clan leader admonished.
The two nodded and said yes.
Kneel down and kowtow three times to the ancestors of the Shen family, which is considered the end of the process.
It was much simpler than Shen Xingwan imagined, and the next step was to celebrate.
As soon as Shen Mochen went out, he was surrounded by people, all congratulating him.
There were also girls coming up to congratulate Shen Xingwan one after another, but in comparison, they seemed a bit deserted.
"There will be a banquet in the house tonight. Congratulations to the old lady for having grandchildren." The eldest man said in person.
The old lady had a smile on her face and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
The young and noisy young men couldn't wait for the banquet in the evening, so they took Shen Mochen away to drink.
Shen Xingwan also smiled and said, "We have prepared good wine and tea in the yard. Sisters, please go and have a drink."
"Okay." Shen Ziyin was the first to respond, and the other girls also responded.
Shen Xingwan set up two tables in a shady place in the yard. A group of sisters ate, drank and had fun for a while, then went their own ways to have fun.
There are those who play chess, those who compete with flowers, and those who are funny.
The fat cat refused to come and was hugged by so many beautiful little girls. He almost fainted with happiness.
At the banquet in the evening, Shen Xingwan drank a lot. The fourth young lady was a good person, and the whole banquet atmosphere was quite good.
Because the results will be released tomorrow, a few people from the clan will participate in this autumn ceremony. The eldest master cannot speak too late, and the banquet ends quite early.
Shen Xingwan was helped to the yard, and Qinghong brought him some anti-alcohol soup. After drinking it, he sat on the chair looking drunk but not drunk.
The dust has finally settled. I am not as excited as I imagined, and even feel a little tired.
Bai He walked in and looked at Shen Xingwan who was slightly drunk but hesitated to speak.
"What's wrong?" Shen Xingwan asked.
"The old lady invites the girl to come over." Bai He said cautiously, "The girl looks very drunk."
Shen Xingwan rubbed his head and stood up, "It's okay, he's still awake."
On the way there, the night breeze blew in, and Shen Xingwan was almost sober from drinking.
What would happen if the old lady came to her in the middle of the night?
Upon entering, the old lady's room was illuminated by candlelight as bright as day, and the atmosphere was inexplicably heavy.
"Sit down," the old lady said.
Shen Xingwan sat down opposite the old lady. The old lady pushed a small wooden box to her, "This is a gift to celebrate you officially becoming my granddaughter."
Shen Xingwan raised his eyes and looked at the old lady, who motioned for her to open it.
Chen Xingwan opened the box quickly, his pupils trembling.
"Why don't you pick it up and take a look?" the old lady said in a gentle voice.
Shen Xingwan picked up the token in the box. On the front was a phoenix bathed in flames, and on the back were engraved three words "Family Head's Order".
Shen Xingwan felt that this thing was hot to touch, so he took one look at it and put it back in the box.
"Do you like this gift?" the old lady asked.
Shen Xingwan looked directly at the old lady, "Leave such a valuable thing to me?"
The old lady said solemnly, "Getting it means that you will become the new generation head of the Shen family. You can use all the wealth and dark forces accumulated by the Shen family over the years."
Shen Xingwan took a breath of air, this was what she needed most right now.
"What is the responsibility I need to bear?" Shen Xingwan asked while remaining calm.
This kind of thing is not so easy to get.
The old lady seemed to be lost in memories, "The family leader order was used twice in the history of the Shen family. The first time, Queen Mingyi used it to assist the Ming Lord to end the war and internal strife, and became the founding queen of the Jin Dynasty. The second time,
The world-famous female counselor planned the world with her own hands, stirred up the situation in the Three Kingdoms, and gave the former dynasty that had declined some breathing space."
It's a pity that all its former glory has been exhausted, and it eventually perished.
Shen Yunan, the holder of the family head order at that time, in order to prevent the people from suffering the fate of being trampled upon when the city was destroyed and the country was destroyed, she led countless people with lofty ideals headed by the Shen family as a woman, united several major clans, and dealt with the other two countries.
That time, the Shen family paid a huge price. Almost half of the accumulated wealth and Anbu power was used up, and countless talented and beautiful men and women of the Shen family were killed and injured.
The Shen family almost paid the price of annihilation to buy a glimmer of life for the people behind them, so that they could avoid being invaded.
Unfortunately, external forces resisted, and internal chaos arose.
The Shen family remained silent this time. In just three years, the previous dynasty was destroyed and the great dynasty was established.
The famous Shen clan has fallen silent, and now few people mention the past.
Shen Xingwan looked at the token in front of him and felt heavy.
"The Shen family will not sacrifice their lives for the royal family, but they will sacrifice everything to protect this land." Mrs. Shen said solemnly.
This is truly the pride and perseverance of a clan that has endured for several dynasties.
Often ordinary people only see the wealth and prosperity of the Gaomen clan and the power they hold.
But because a real clan has gained a lot from this land, when storms come, they have to stand at the front and bear the greatest responsibility.
"Can you take on such a responsibility?" the old lady asked.
Shen Xingwan smiled bitterly, "I don't know."
Such a responsibility is too heavy. Once you nod your head, you cannot retreat or look back.
Shen Xingwan wasn't sure if she could do it, or if she could give everything for this land.
The old lady looked at her. She was still very young, not even haircut yet.
The old lady knew that she was being cruel by imposing such a responsibility on her.
But time is running out and she doesn't have time to wait for her to grow up.
The old lady sighed and said, "Go back and think about it carefully before telling me the answer."
"Yes." Shen Xingwan quickly bowed and left.
When Shen Xingwan walked out of the courtyard, he was completely confused and even a little confused.
Where is the promised down-to-earth family? It turns out that this is the kind of down-and-out family...
Shen Xingwan was a little speechless, always feeling that things were getting bigger and bigger.
