In the ancestral hall.
Ancestor worship has arrived at the last stage of the process, to send off the ancestors.
It has to be said that today's young people just don't follow the rules.
You see, first of all, I invited my ancestors back. Now I still remember to send them away.
If you are a younger generation, you can't remember to send it to the younger generation.
Li Dong thought of the sky horse in the open space in his mind. He bowed to his ancestors.
Libby, fire.
Outside the ancestral hall, firecrackers roared and red debris flew all over the sky.
At this time, the Li family also lost their previous formality and seriousness. They gathered in groups and chatted with each other, with a smile on their faces.
Li Dong is talking with Li Chengfu at this time.
Li Chengfu is the oldest of the generation of Li Chengyuan in Chenjiawan. Li Chengfu is in charge of most of the Li family's affairs.
Of course, Li Dong's family is not included.
At this time, Li Chengfu, with a smile on his face, said to Li Dong: "Dongzi, you see, our old Li family is different now.
However, in the village, it is still his Chen family that makes the decision.
During this period of time, the village secretary and the village director have to be re elected. Dongzi, I've been thinking about whether to run for the village secretary recently. Do you think it's worthwhile? "
Li Dong said with a smile: "if the second uncle wants to run for election, it's better to run for election.
Although there are not many Li family members, they are not too few. If they really want to vote for you, there should be no big problem. "
Li Chengfu said, "there are many Li family members, but there are more Chen family members. Besides, we Li family, big guys don't necessarily vote for me."
"I'll ask my dad to say hello to you later. As for the Chen family..."
Li Dong stopped and said: "after all, the Chen family is the main family name of the Chen family. Otherwise, the second uncle should run for the village director. The secretary should keep it for the Chen family. There is no need to be so rigid."
Li Dong didn't care too much about the village.
But the Li family wants to run for a secretary and director, and he won't say anything.
The old house is here. Maybe my parents will come back often to have a look. If you have a family leader, you can save a lot of trouble.
Hearing that Li Dongyuan asked Li Chengyuan to say hello to everyone, Li Chengfu immediately beamed with joy.
Li Dong didn't have to come forward to this. His father, the richest man, said hello to him. How about a village head?
Chen Jiawan is not a rich place and has no resources. He doesn't care who the Secretary and director are.
Li Chengyuan greets. I'm afraid no one in the Chen family dares to speak.
As they were talking, Li Chengyuan came over.
At this time, Li Chengyuan's face was not very good-looking, and he said angrily, "what about Nanming? Who saw it? "
Cheng is not even busy: "Li Nanming?"
"I didn't see it just now, you son of a bitch!"
Li Chengyuan is really a little angry. How big a thing it is to worship ancestors. You Li Nanming didn't attend!
If we put it in the past, it would be possible to get rid of the genealogy!
I heard that Li Nanming didn't attend the ancestor worship ceremony. Several old people nearby also rushed to come over, showing dissatisfaction on their faces.
Of course, no one spoke.
After all, Li Nanming is Li Cheng's distant nephew or Li Dongtang's elder brother. They can only talk about this matter with their father and son. If others say so, they may not be happy.
They don't say that Li Chengyuan doesn't know where Li Nanming has gone.
Although Li Qing knows not far away, he doesn't know what to say at this time. After all, Li Dong is there.
Li Dong saw his father angry and said with a smile, "Dad, anger hurts your body. Today is a big happy event for the Li family. Don't be angry about such a small matter."
"Is this a small matter?" Li Chengyuan said angrily: "I saw him before I entered the door. After a while, others disappeared. I deliberately fought against my ancestors."
"Dad, don't be angry. I got rid of them. "
Li Dong said this way, the other people suddenly quiet down, a little unclear why.
Did you get rid of it?
What are you doing with Li Nanming?
Li Chengyuan also looks at Li Dong with some incomprehension, but he is not in a hurry to ask questions. Now his son has many ideas, and Li Chengyuan will not get angry until he understands.
One is a son, the other is a nephew, which he still knows.
Seeing the crowd, Li Dong said: "Li Nanming is making trouble outside. He owes a lot of usury. The usurer just stopped him.
I was afraid of delaying the ancestor worship and took him away
"Usury?"
"No?"
"What's the matter? Didn't Nanming say that he made a lot of money outside?"
“……”
Li's family began to talk in a low voice. Li Chengyuan's face changed slightly, and he said in a hurry: "Dongzi, really?"
"Can I cheat you?"Li Dong laughed and continued: "Dad, Li Nanming is hopeless.
In recent years, although I didn't help him directly, he contracted those projects in my name. I'm not unclear.
If you really want to work hard, it's not difficult to earn hundreds of thousands of yuan a year.
In a few years, it's not difficult to save a hundred thousand on hand, right?
What's more, his uncle left him a house, and there were some savings in his family, including houses, cars, and bills.
Marry a daughter-in-law, live a good life, in Qingyang is also a top one family.
But he would like to gamble, go whoring, just want to get rich overnight, lazy, such people have long been abandoned.
I won't take care of him in the future. Dad, you don't have to help him.
The big guys are here today, and they are all from their own families.
I don't hide it. You say I'm cruel or cold-blooded. Li Nanming has nothing to do with me in the future. He is dead or alive. I won't care about his own affairs. "
Li Dong said firmly, other people are slightly trembling.
Li Nanming is his cousin!
Even Li Nanming said that no matter what, almost cut off the relationship, Li Dongxin is really tough enough.
It is obviously not angry to say this in front of all the people of the Li family and in front of the ancestors.
Originally, Li Dong went back to his hometown today, and some of these people in his hometown have moved their minds.
But now a listen to these, everyone's mind can not help cooling down.
Li Dong naturally saw the change in their faces.
All of them were from the village. They were not so resourceful and disappointed.
After they had digested it for a while, Li Dong said slowly, "we are all one family for generations.
Unless I really don't become useful, or I, Li Dong, are not rich people who forget their roots.
From this year on, I will give you 10000 yuan a year for the Li family over 60 years old.
For children who are still in school, I'll pay for the tuition.
There is no primary school in the village. I have to go to other villages to go to school. I will build a primary school in the village and ask the best teacher to teach them!
I'll take care of the old and the children.
Others, who have hands and feet, have to support themselves!
If anyone wants to work in the distance, I won't refuse. If you have the ability, you can do it till the boss.
If you don't have the ability, you'd better have enough food and clothing.
I said these ugly remarks in front of me. Most of the people present today are my elders. I may not like this, but I think Li Dong has done a good job.
Unless someone like Li Nanming who eats, drinks, whores, gambles and doesn't do serious things, other people, if they really want to have trouble, come to me, Li Dong, I will not turn a blind eye.
I paid for the repair of the village road.
Whose children are promising, have been admitted to a famous university, or want to learn a skill to make a living. Tell me about these things with Li Dong. Can I still do it?
It's all one family. I also want the Li family to get along better.
As long as you do serious and reliable things, I have no reason not to support you.
But when I'm a cash cow, this kind of thing is impossible. Everyone has a good idea. "
Although this is not polite, it is also direct, but when Li Dong's voice dropped, several elder Li surnamed still kept busy saying: "Dongzi's words are of utmost benevolence and righteousness, who can say no!"
"That is, we all have hands and feet. Can we starve ourselves to death?"
"If you don't try your best, you can only rely on Dongzi, then how can you do it?"
“……”
A few old people first open their mouth to answer, and then the families with children of the right age are also shouting in succession!
The old people support it. That's what Li Dong said before, that's 10000 yuan for a person over 60 years old.
I'm kidding. Is 10000 yuan less these days?
There are two old people in the family, which is 20000 yuan a year, which is more than their family savings.
If you live in the countryside for another four or five years, it's enough to build a small Western-style house.
And those who have children are also in charge.
After primary school, the tuition fee is not high, but those who have children to go to college, the tuition is not small.
Some families with two or three children can crush the whole family for the sake of tuition fees.
Now Li Dong has directly covered the tuition fee, so there is no pressure at all. What else can I say?
The elderly, children, these two groups of people alone almost include all the Li family.
There are no children, no old people, and few.
Even if there is, it is convenient for everyone to talk at this time, otherwise it will offend everyone.
Chen Jiawan has a small population of Li. There are 50 or 60 households in total, with a family of five people, and there are only less than 300 people.
For Li Dong, these costs add up to about one million a year.
With a fortune of nearly 100 billion yuan, it's nothing to spend a million yuan a year in my hometown.After all, they are of the same ethnic group. It's really necessary to stick to one's hair. It's hard to hear the reputation when it comes out.
Of course, Li Dong is not really so talkative. He only cares about the elderly and children. Other people are in the right age. If they have hands and feet, he will not support them.
You have to depend on yourself if you want to get ahead.
I really hope to get rich from Li Dong. I can only say that they think too much.
Li Dongning is willing to help those outsiders who live by their own efforts, and will not raise some moths.
Li's family cheered, as for Li Nanming, has long been forgotten.
It's not an acquaintance. Before, some people flattered Li Nanming because of Li Dong's face.
As a matter of fact, Li Nanming grew up in Qingyang when he was young, and he was not familiar with the villagers. Who would like to lose his own advantages for Li Nanming.
Li Cheng foresight, Li Dong said firmly, his face showed a touch of gloom.
After a while, Li Chengyuan said with exhaustion: "Dongzi, let's go out and talk."
Li Dong nodded and followed his father out of the ancestral hall.
At the corner of the ancestral hall, Li Chengyuan is eager to speak.
Li Dong took the initiative to say, "Dad, since my words have been exported, it must be serious.
Before you helped him, I opened one eye and closed one eye, and said nothing.
But now, if you help him again, I'll talk to mom.
You paid the down payment for Li Qing. Did I speak?
This money is nothing to me. I can earn 100 houses even if I don't work a day!
Li Qing over there, down-to-earth to open the supermarket, how you help, I have no problem.
But Li Nanming?
He's a moth. I have to keep him?
Today he dare to lose millions, usury dare to take, tomorrow he dare to lose millions, billions!
I don't run a bank. He's also an adult. It's not negotiable! "
Li Chengyuan sighed: "Dongzi, he really took usury?"
"Well."
"Lost the bet?"
"Well."
"How much money do you owe now?"
Li Dong slightly frowns, after a while just way: "concrete is not clear, 5.6 million certainly have."
"Give it back to him, or you don't care about him. He's really killed by those people. I know these people... "
"Dad
Li Chengyuan waved his hand and said, "this time, you helped him return it, and I will never care about him again."
Li Dong frowned: "the first time, there is the second time. This time I help him return it. He won't have a long memory. What will you do if he comes to haunt you in the future? "
"I..." Li Chengyuan has nothing to say.
Seeing that his father was not in a good mood, Li Dong said after a long time: "money, I helped him solve the problem.
But don't worry about it, Dad.
In a word, I'm worthy of him if he has a bite to eat. What do you say, dad? "
"Whatever you want. I don't care about it."
Li Chengyuan knows that Li Nanming will have to suffer a lot this time, but he will be fine.
As for the future, let's talk about it later.
Without thinking about Li Nanming any more, Li Chengyuan changed his topic and said, "Li's side, what you said is enough. You've done a good job.
People can't forget their roots. We are rooted here.
Your father and I will be buried here when I die. Your grandparents are here too.
The old and the young, can help a little, others work hard enough.
However, Chen Jiawan is not only the Li family, but also from the same village. Other people's side... "
"I understand it." Li Dong nodded his head and said: "other old people in the village, over 60 years old, 5000 yuan for each person. If they are children, some of them will be admitted to university. I will pay for the college tuition.
As for the rest, I don't need money, but I don't have to do too much. I have children and women, and I can't count on me. "
"That's the reason." Li Chengyuan nods.
Li Dong's coming back this time, bleeding is certain. After all, it's widely spread. If it's not bleeding, it's designated to be despised.
No one can say anything wrong with Li Dong's arrangement.
Li Jiagen is here. His hometown still needs reputation.
No matter the officials or businessmen, if they really want to have a promising future, no one will ignore the local conditions.
Li Chengyuan is very satisfied with his son's arrangement. The only one who is somewhat disappointed is probably Li Nanming's nephew.
This is a serious relative. As a result, outsiders are not as good as them.
In the heart of disappointment return to disappointment, Li Chengyuan is also too lazy to say, nephew, after all, it is still one notch worse.
If Li Dong is the elder brother and younger brother of Li Dong, Li Dong said today that he was so resolute that Li Chengyuan would have to be furious.
But my cousin, it depends on Li Dong's own.
