Chapter 105: Patriarch
The man was choked speechless, and shouted in annoyance, "Hey, you little rabbit cub......"
The man was also angry, and he stretched out his hand to greet Shen Wentao twice.
Shen Fuhai glared at the past, and the iron pickaxe in his hand was inserted into the ground, so frightened that the man's hand retracted.
No one dared to say anything now, but they were all muttering in their hearts.
Let's just leave, what if Shen Xiangmiao is really a goblin? What should I do if the disaster is in my own family in the future?
But if you don't leave here, there's obviously nothing you can do......
Under the stalemate, someone behind shouted loudly: "The patriarch is here!" ”
The quiet crowd immediately blew up again.
"The patriarch is here, someone is in charge of this matter, and this will be easy to do." In such a boiling voice, everyone unanimously let a wide road come out.
An old gentleman with gray hair, who was already in the age of sixties, but was in good spirits, of medium stature, and on crutches, walked slowly under the support of a young man.
This is the patriarch of the Shen family in Hexi Village, named Shen Yuantang, and he is the youngest of the only seven grandfathers in the entire Shen family so far.
Shen Yuantang was a talent in the early years, although he had never been promoted, but his two sons and five grandsons are now very promising, especially the youngest son went to Fengteng County, which is 500 miles away from Hexi Village, to be a Qipin County Cheng in the early years, it is said that he is a good official who is sympathetic to the people, makes decisions for the people, and is willing to give to the state, and will soon be promoted to the state capital to be the governor.
Therefore, although Shen Yuantang is the youngest in the grandfather's generation, he is expected by everyone and sits in the position of patriarch.
Shen Yuantang is also a kind and charitable person on weekdays, and he is very kind and enthusiastic towards his neighbors, and the conflicts and disputes between various families can be handled fairly, which is very authoritative in the hearts of the villagers.
Therefore, as soon as Shen Yuantang came out, the hustle and bustle just now immediately turned into silence.
Shen Guangyao, the cousin who helped Shen Yuantang to come over, also immediately found a pestle to come over for Shen Yuantang, who was old after all, to sit down.
Shen Yuantang sat down slowly, tapped his fingers on the cane twice, and asked slowly, "What's wrong, let's talk about it." ”
As soon as the Xu family saw this formation, they rushed up first: "Patriarch, you can come, this Shen Xiangmiao is a goblin......
"Nonsense, Kanae is not a goblin!" Lu hurriedly argued.
The Xu family is bent on ruining Shen Xiangmiao's reputation, and he must not know what bad things to say at this time, and the Lu family does not want the Xu family to succeed.
"Why not, it's a goblin ......"
"If it's not, it's not ......"
The Xu family and the Lu family were arguing and shouting, and neither of them would back down.
Shen Yuantang furrowed his brows and coughed heavily: "Quiet! What kind of system is it that is noisy and shouting! ”
Shen Yuantang was extremely majestic, and his speech was not angry but majestic.
Both Xu and Lu stopped talking.
Shen Yuantang's scrutinizing gaze swept over the bodies of these people in front of him, and finally landed on one person, and said, "Come on, what happened." ”
Everyone was shocked when they saw that the person Shen Yuantang was referring to was none other than Shen Xiangmiao himself.
"Patriarch, this person is Shen Xiangmiao." Someone next to him thought it was because Shen Yuantang didn't know Shen Xiangmiao, so he kindly reminded him.
"I know." Shen Yuantang stroked his long beard and said, "That's what I want to ask." ”
The crowd was even more amazed.
It is said that the most important thing to ask is the bystander, so that the public can get fair words and understand the truth of the whole matter, but Shen Yuantang asked the person directly, which is incredible.
In Shen Yuantang's opinion, this is not the case.
Most people in the world feel that because they have to think about themselves, most of the authorities only choose what is beneficial to them when they tell the story, and even if they are at fault, they will avoid the important and trivialize themselves, and try their best to excuse themselves, so it is easy to confuse the public. But he always thinks that the essence of a person is vividly reflected in how to tell the truth of things.
Therefore, Shen Yuantang wanted to hear the truth of the matter from Shen Xiangmiao's mouth, and also wanted to see what kind of person Shen Xiangmiao was.
"Patriarch, this is not appropriate...... Xu hurriedly shouted: "This girl is a goblin, so she can't excuse herself?" ”
"I have my own sense of proportion in this matter, and it is not the turn of others to make irresponsible remarks." Shen Yuantang squinted his eyes, and his voice was not angry but threatening.
What he was most disgusted with was the noisy person who didn't know how to advance or retreat, and when he saw Xu's appearance, he was even more disgusted, and the cane in his hand knocked heavily on the ground.
Xu Shi was stunned.
And Shen Xiangmiao blinked at this time.
She had heard of Shen Yuantang, the patriarch, on weekdays, but whether it was crossing over or the memories she carried in the original Shen Xiangmiao, she had never seen Shen Yuantang.
Shen Xiangmiao was also worried at first that this Shen Yuantang would be an old man who couldn't figure out, was full of people, and also liked the theory of ghosts and gods, but now it seems that not only is it not, but it is also an elder who has hills and valleys in his chest and a good fortune in his heart, and is worthy of respect.
In this way, there is no need to talk too much nonsense, and things are simpler.
Shen Xiangmiao took half a step forward and gave a junior salute to Shen Yuantang: "Patriarch, this is how things are......"
Shen Xiangmiao started to get up early in the morning and heard the movement outside until Shen Yuantang arrived here, and all the things were clearly explained to Shen Yuantang as they were.
Including the two fights in the middle, and what means he used to deal with them, it is clear that he said.
As for the conjecture of the purpose of Xu's and Shen Futian's visit, as well as the previous grievances with the Shen family, they never mentioned it.
"The above is the beginning and end of this matter, I just said it truthfully, and there was no lie, please ask the patriarch to make a clear decision." Shen Xiangmiao finally added.
Shen Yuantang squinted and listened to Shen Xiangmiao's speech, and nodded slightly: "Hmm." ”
At the same time, he bowed his head and thought for a moment.
What Shen Xiangmiao said just now only described how the whole thing happened, as for the meaning derived from it, as well as her personal conjectures, she really didn't say anything more.
In this way, Shen Yuantang glanced at Shen Xiangmiao more.
The girl is still young, but she is born with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, standing there tall and tall like a small sapling, it is commendable that she can still be calm and calm in such a battle, without a trace of panic.
Shen Yuantang couldn't help but nodded in appreciation, and he had a certain conclusion on this matter in his heart.
"What about the Huang Daxian people?" Shen Yuantang asked.
Shen Fuhai grabbed Huang Daxian'er, who was still lying under the jujube tree, and threw it on the ground: "Here!" ”
At this time, Huang Daxian'er still had her eyes closed, and she seemed to be still in a coma.
