Eight hundred and fiftieth IX Xu family is stubborn
After driving around Hengyang City for several times, the car finally drove into a spacious street. However, Qin Yu was curious to find that the shops on both sides of the street were closed, but the doorways on both sides of the street were full of goods.
flower basket.
The flower baskets extended from both sides of the street to the innermost part. Qin Yu looked along the flower baskets and saw a mansion in front. Qin Yu was stunned when he saw this mansion.
"Xu Guo Mansion?" Qin Yu read out softly.
"Young Master, our Xu family once had a Duke, and this Duke's mansion has been passed down, and now it has become the clan of my Xu family." Xu Cheng, who was sitting aside, could see Qin Yu's confusion.
, explained with a smile.
"It's not easy to keep a government palace forever."
Qin Yu's words were truly inspired. As the world has gone through vicissitudes and changes, many wealthy families in history have declined in the end, but the Xu family has always owned the Duke's Mansion. This shows that in the dynasties over the years,
Amidst the changes, the Xu family has always stood firm.
Especially in modern times, some wealthy landowners have been overthrown, and many families have donated some of their mansions to the government to ensure peace. There are very few like the Xu family.
"Young Master, all the shops on both sides belong to my Xu family. The clan leader and elders knew that you were coming today, so they specially ordered the shops on both sides to close today and welcome you with flower baskets."
"This is too grand." Qin Yu touched his nose. Because of his arrival, all the shops on both sides of the street were closed. It was a bit wasteful.
Moreover, Qin Yu believes that not all of these shops are run by the Xu family, but some of them must be rented out. Such people must have closed their doors for a rest under the strong request of the Xu family, and they are not sure how to curse themselves.
This is the culprit.
"Young Master, you don't know that originally the elders wanted to come here to greet you in person according to ancient etiquette, but in the end I persuaded them to stop. I believe you don't like this either, but the elders and their thoughts
, Young Master, please forgive me."
When Xu Cheng said this, he smiled. Apparently he also felt that it was inappropriate for him to talk about his own elders. Qin Yu also smiled along with him. He understood what Xu Cheng meant. He was fighting him in advance.
Vaccination, the elders of the Xu family are probably some old stubborns, adhering to some ancient ways. With the education Xu Cheng and their current younger generation have received, there will definitely be a generation gap.
The car finally stopped slowly at the Duke's Mansion of the Xu family. Xu Cheng opened the car door, and a group of old men walked over quickly. Qin Yu hurriedly got out of the car. Some of these old men were older than his grandfather, and he didn't dare to trust him.
Big, really slow and waiting for others to walk in.
"The current patriarch of the Xu family has led everyone in the Xu family to meet the young master."
An old man in his seventies led a group of people towards Qin Yu. When he was still two meters away from Qin Yu, he suddenly said respectfully.
"Clan Chief Xu, this can't be done. I'm just a junior. I really can't bear the title of Young Master." Qin Yu quickly waved his hand and refused.
"Young Master, my ancestors of the Xu family have recognized Mr. Wolong as their master since they followed Mr. Wolong. This has been passed down from generation to generation. This is the highest clan rule of our Xu family. Anyone who does not comply will be violating the Xu family rules." The old man was very serious.
He said without any hint of discussion.
"Yes, if it hadn't been for Mr. Wolong, our Xu family wouldn't be where we are today, so you are the young master of our Xu family." An old man agreed.
Qin Yu touched his nose. He finally understood why Xu Cheng had to take vaccinations in advance. The patriarch and elders of the Xu family were indeed stubborn.
Of course, the term "old stubborn" is not a derogatory term. It is even a complimentary term to some extent. In modern society, it is really rare for these old people in the Xu family to still abide by the family rules.
If it were Qin Yu himself, if he were in the position of the head of the Xu family and the elders, he thought that he would not be able to do this. At this point, he also admired Mr. Wolong in his heart.
So accurate.
"Clan Leader Xu, why don't we go in and talk first? The impact of standing at the door might not be very good." Qin Yu took a look and found that everyone in the Xu family had come out and stood in the dark at the door. This scene was quite disturbing.
Qin Yu thought of the scenes of a certain leader traveling that he often saw on TV.
"Young Master, my name is just one word, Young Master can call me by my first name." Xu Yan said.
"No, the elders are in order. Chief Xu, your age is not acceptable." Qin Yu also refused seriously. What a joke, asking him to call an old man who is about the same age as his grandfather by his name.
The most basic human etiquette is gone.
"Well, let's talk about it after we go in." Seeing Qin Yu's serious expression, Xu Yan didn't insist anymore. The main reason was that he didn't know the young master's character. Although there were rumors about the young master after Xu Cheng returned the news yesterday, he
So I collected them, but I was short of time and couldn't analyze anything.
"Fire the cannon and welcome the young master!"
Xu Yan turned his head and said to a middle-aged man next to him. The middle-aged man nodded, waved his hand, and then a deafening sound of cannons rang out.
boom!
The sound of the salute echoed through the sky, startling Qin Yu. He raised his head and looked to both sides. It turned out that at some point, more than a dozen salute cannons had been placed on both sides, with several young men firing in succession.
The sound of cannons rumbled, and a series of salutes were shocking. Qin Yu looked at these salutes and was speechless in his heart. The Xu family is still awesome. This is an urban area. They are so confident in firing salutes in an urban area. It is obvious that they are
Don’t be afraid of government prosecution.
In fact, Qin Yu was really right. The Xu family is more powerful than the government in Hengyang. The Xu family is present in almost all industries in Hengyang. It can be said that the Xu family controls Hengyang.
One-half of the economy, that is, the newly appointed mayors and municipal party committee secretaries, all need the Xu family to visit the head of the Xu family.
Of course, the Xu family will not ignore the government just because their family is powerful. They are very cooperative with some of the government's provisions and plans, and the two parties cooperate with each other. This is also an important reason why the Xu family will never fail.
He has strength, but does not show off his sharp edge, which shows how the thousand-year-old family has behaved in the world.
After the salute was fired, followed by fireworks and firecrackers, after the joyous noise ended, Xu Yancai made a forward gesture toward Qin Yu and said, "Young Master, please come in."
The crowd consciously gave way to a path, but Qin Yu refused to go ahead alone and bargained with Xu Yan for a while. Finally, Xu Yan had no choice but to walk side by side with Qin Yu.
"Sure enough, we still have to use our trump card to deal with these old people in the Xu family." Qin Yu touched the sweat on his forehead and sighed in his heart.
Just now Xu Yan must let him go ahead alone. After a long time of arguing to no avail, Qin Yu simply lied and said that if Xu Yan didn't come with him, he would not go in and turned around and left.
Faced with Qin Yu's rogue approach, Xu Yan had no choice but to agree. No, Xu Yan still seemed hesitant to speak, which really embarrassed this stubborn old man.
Walking into Duke Xu's mansion, Qin Yu suddenly stopped. When he stopped, everyone in the Xu family naturally stopped too. They all looked at Qin Yu in confusion, not understanding why Qin Yu stopped again.
Qin Yu ignored the doubts of the people around him at this time. His eyes narrowed slightly and he stared at the Duke's Mansion. After a while, he read aloud: "The clear river surrounds the house like a coiled dragon. Looking north, dragons and tigers are sitting on the west mountain.
"
"As expected of the Duke's Mansion, it is truly a geomantic treasure." There was a hint of shock in Qin Yu's eyes that he hadn't noticed when he was standing outside the Duke's Mansion. As soon as he stepped into the Duke's Mansion, Qin Yu felt like
A breeze blows, and people instantly become more energetic.
Therefore, Qin Yu began to examine the feng shui of the Duke's Mansion, and found that a clear river passed around the Duke's Mansion, reaching the backyard. Qin Yu knew that there must be a lake in the backyard of the Duke's Mansion, even without looking at him.
This is called the water dragon surrounding the house.
The water dragon brings wealth and luck in Feng Shui, and condenses into a lake, which retains wealth and luck, and accumulates it more deeply.
In addition to the Qinghe River, looking from Qin Yu's position, in the northwest of the Duke's Mansion, one can see a high mountain. The mountain is tall and graceful, like a tiger sitting in command.
As the saying goes, when a fierce tiger emerges, all darkness will be eradicated. With this high mountain standing guard, the Duke's Mansion will be free from the disturbance of some bad things, and will keep out some obscure and unlucky things.
It was precisely after seeing these ways that Qin Yu stopped. He could conclude that the location and design of the Duke's Mansion must have been the work of a Feng Shui master.
"As expected of the young master, you can actually see the feng shui of my Xu family's residence at a glance." After hearing Qin Yu's words, Xu Yan was stunned for a while, and then said with a smile.
"Clan Chief Xu, any feng shui master in this Duke's Mansion can see that the Feng Shui is so good." Qin Yu looked at Xu Yan and smiled helplessly. This Chief Xu really flattered him all the time.
If you can't see this, then you should stop hanging out in the Feng Shui circle and change your career as soon as possible.
"Yes, the young master is a fifth-grade Feng Shui master. You must know that the young master who has become a master at this age is already a genius, not to mention that it is the most difficult Feng Shui. The young master's talent can be said to be unique among ten thousand.
.”
"Okay, bro, let's keep going." Qin Yu rolled his eyes in his heart. If he kept talking, it is estimated that Patriarch Xu would continue to find words to praise himself. In front of so many people, he was praised by an old man.
Qin Yu thought that he was still a bit thin-skinned, although what Patriarch Xu said was true.
After stepping through the main door, Qin Yu entered the main hall under the guidance of Xu Yan, but was shocked by the formation in the main hall.
