Chapter 243 Tribute was stolen
The two were arguing, because Xu Guining was, after all, a brother who grew up with Xu Ming.
Now he is injured.
He couldn't bear to do it.
They were stuck in the river for a while.
In the end, it was Rulan who dragged the person onto the boat.
Xu Pinghai looked at Xu Guining, who looked almost the same as Xu Yinli, and he just couldn't like him at all.
Although they are twins, Xu Yinli is honest and kind, while Xu Guining looks like a street thug.
Relying on his mother's love, he did all kinds of eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, and caused a lot of trouble.
Seeing him crying and begging for mercy, I felt extremely happy.
"Let's go! Let's go back. Your sister caught a shark today. Let's eat shark tonight."
Xu Pinghai watched the boat leave and weighed the little kid in his arms.
Sihai came back to his senses and smiled at Xu Pinghai, showing his tiny teeth.
"I'm going to look for my eldest sister."
Sihai spoke in a childish voice.
He used his hands and feet to climb down from Xu Pinghai.
……
"Big sister, big sister——"
Sihai ran very fast with his short legs and saw that the gate of the ancestral hall was open.
He rubbed it for a moment and ran in.
Xu Anyang knelt so hard that he was almost falling asleep.
I finally got a chance to take a break, but was instantly awakened by the sound of brisk footsteps.
"So it's you, such a tiny thing! Who else did I think it was?"
Xu Anyang breathed a sigh of relief. Sihai sneaked in, looking around with his big round eyes.
He walked towards Xu Anyang skillfully.
She leaned over and sat directly on his lap.
As the weight came up, my knees hit the ground hard.
Xu Anyang screamed in pain.
"You came here just to torment me, didn't you?"
Xu Anyang picked up the child hanging on his body in pain and put it back on the ground.
I also sat up and rubbed my knees, looking so pitiful.
"Sister, my uncle was driven away by my grandfather."
Sihai stood in front of Xu Yiyi with his hands on his hips, smiling with glee.
Not to mention how happy I am.
"what? What?"
Xu Anyang exclaimed and scratched his ears, thinking he had misheard.
"Is your uncle really driven away?"
Xu Anyang was surprised, as they had only just arrived at the ancestral hall.
The person was dealt with.
Sure enough, his great-grandfather was still as decisive as ever.
Xu Yiyi raised her eyebrows slightly, seeming a little surprised.
"Of course it is. Uncle Pinghai even took me to see it."
Sihai nodded affirmatively. From now on, when his uncle was not on the island, no one would bother them all the time.
The child was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.
Turning around, I saw a few fruits on the altar.
While the two were not paying attention, he picked up a fruit piled on top, peeled it and put it in his mouth.
"Hey hey... it's over, it's over. This is for our ancestors to eat."
Xu Anyang panicked and stammered.
When Sihai heard this, he quickly threw away the fruit in his hand.
Xu Yiyi directly pulled Sihai to her and pressed him on her knees with a snap.
He raised his hand and slapped his plump butt.
"I was wrong."
The child was quick to admit his mistakes and didn't cry even when he was beaten.
She nestled softly into her elder sister's arms.
Xu Anyang knelt aside, looking at the offering on the altar where a fruit was missing.
I suddenly felt a chill on my back.
The sea breeze also began to whistle.
"This...what should we do? Our ancestors can't blame us, right?"
Xu Anyang said this.
Sihai quickly picked up half of the fruit on the ground and put it back.
"Hey! Don't put anything that falls on the ground. Don't let our ancestors eat dirty things."
Xu Anyang stood up quickly and picked up the half piece of fruit covered with dust.
"You can't eat it anymore, okay? This is for our ancestors."
As he spoke, Xu Anyang pulled Sihai to stand together and bowed towards the tablet.
"Ignorance is not a crime. Please do not blame the various ancestors for the child's ignorance!"
Xu Anyang muttered to himself for several sentences, and the panic on his face finally eased a little.
"But I saw others had eaten it, so I ate it."
Sihai pouted and pointed at a whole chicken placed next to the fruit, as well as the shrimps, crabs and fish next to it.
The offerings in the ancestral hall are frequently changed, and fruits, cakes and meat are indispensable.
He had often heard that someone was cheating on his food, but he didn't believe it.
I didn't expect that there would be people competing with their ancestors for food.
"Why are you little brats so naughty? You can't touch anything in the ancestral hall. If you anger the ancestors, they will blame you."
Xu Anyang's eyebrows were wrinkled like caterpillars.
Sihai stood aside with his hands clasped and retorted.
"It's not all children, there are adults too."
Sihai snorted.
The ancestral hall is not locked, and there are many people burning incense on weekdays.
Why do you have to talk about their children?
After hearing what Sihai said, Xu Anyang subconsciously didn't believe it.
How could an adult be so ignorant? Unless he is really not afraid of being punished by his ancestors.
"Don't worry about others for now. Next time, don't eat anything from the altar. Do you understand?"
Xu Yiyi scolded in a low voice.
"Okay, okay! I won't do it again."
Sihai muttered softly.
"Go back home and bring out the fruits you have to make amends to your ancestors."
Xu Yiyi said helplessly, reaching out to pinch the fruit crumbs off the child's face.
As soon as she finished speaking, Sihai disappeared.
When he came back, Xu Anyang was already kneeling back down, his body straight and his attitude very correct.
When I went in, I found out that my great uncle had wandered in here at some point.
Sihai grunted as he carried the basket to the bottom of the altar.
Da Mengmeng looked at Xu Anyang with puzzled eyes.
"Grandpa, did you scold Brother Anyang?"
The child thought for a moment and turned to look at his great-uncle who was leaning on a cane.
"That's not the case! Your brother Anyang is guilty."
My uncle suddenly said this.
Xu Anyang straightened his back even more.
He was also unlucky. Just as he leaned against the pillar to rest, he met the old man coming over.
He was hit by a crutch.
Don’t you feel guilty?
"What are you doing here again?"
The uncle looked at the chubby Sihai's actions with a cloudy look in his eyes, feeling a little puzzled.
"I just took a piece of fruit to eat, and I was afraid that the ancestors would blame me. Isn't this taking the fruit from home to make amends?"
Sihai said as he placed the things in the basket one by one.
"Oh, you're quite sensible."
Uncle Grandpa joked.
Seeing that Sihai was in good shape, I was immediately happy.
Xu Anyang, who was kneeling, couldn't help laughing when he heard the laughter.
What a difference in treatment.
"Grandpa, I didn't do it on purpose. I just saw someone else taking it, so I took it too. I won't do that again in the future."
After Sihai arranged the fruits, he quickly shook his head.
"The ancestors won't blame me, right?"
When the uncle heard this, he frowned, but still had a smile on his face.
"Si Hai is a good boy. The ancestors love him so much that they can't wait to blame him."
After hearing what his uncle said, Sihai finally felt relieved.
Children are easy to coax.
After just a few words, Sihai was coaxed out by his uncle.
Afterwards, Xu Yiyi and Xu Anyang sincerely admitted their mistakes.
Only then was he released.
"Grandpa, I heard from Sihai that there are other adults who come to the ancestral hall to steal food. The clan has always been kind to widows and orphans. They can receive food every month, so no one in the clan will go hungry."
Xu Anyang said affirmatively.
Because he was the one responsible for distributing food to the widows and orphans in the tribe every month.
It has been implemented in every household.
"You're not hungry, but you still come to get food. That's greedy!"
Xu Anyang said this angrily as he helped his great-grandfather out.
