NOVEL FROG Chapter 76
"No, Dad, what do you mean by that?"
When Sha Zhu heard He Daqing's warning, he was a little unhappy and said speechlessly:"It seems that I am so stupid in your eyes. As for Jia Dongxu, I hope he will be in trouble. Why would I care about his business?"
Although Sha Zhu is kind-hearted, he has not forgotten what Jia Zhang did before.
And he also robbed Jia Dongxu's wife.
The two families have been enemies for a long time.
Even if he is stupid, he can't help Jia Dongxu. If you are really entangled by a gambler, don't expect to have a peaceful life in the future.
He Daqing heard this and said without comment:"It's good that you understand it yourself. You know, gamblers don't deserve sympathy. I don't want our family to be entangled by a gambler one day."
"What Yi Zhonghai wants to do is his business, don't get involved."
After saying that, he glanced at Sha Zhu and said,"In addition, you have to remember one sentence. If one day you dare to learn from Jia Dongxu and get involved in gambling, don't blame me for destroying my relatives for the sake of justice."
Although the end of a gambler is pitiful, it is not worthy of sympathy at all.
He Daqing doesn't want his family to be entangled by a gambler, let alone a gambler.
So he must make this clear to Sha Zhu.
Gambling and drugs are definitely his bottom line.
Whoever dares to touch these two things, don't blame him for destroying his relatives for the sake of justice.
Just like the saying goes:"God, I can't live with gambling and drugs!" When
Sha Zhu heard this, he was speechless and said,"Look at what you said, can I still forget the ancestral precepts of our old He family? Even if I am a joke, I can't get involved in this thing, right?" The ancestral precepts of the old He family:"Any descendants in the future who are involved in gambling and drugs will be kicked out of the family tree and expelled from the family, and will no longer be descendants of the He family."
As for why there is such an ancestral precept?
Of course there is a reason.
In the memory of the previous life, the old He family was once rich. They were famous wealthy businessmen in Jin. They started their business by opening an opium den and saved countless gold and silver.
As a result, the main family lineage was extinct because of opium, and could only adopt a child from other houses.
So the old man He at that time ordered the closure of the opium den, and established the ancestral precept that"the descendants of the He family are not allowed to touch drugs, otherwise they will be expelled from the family and removed from the family tree once they are discovered."
Later, because of the war in the Republic of China, the main and branch branches of the He family all went their separate ways.
Most of the He clan members followed the main lineage to the south, and some chose to stay in Jin, or even went abroad directly.
People like He Daqing's grandfather who chose to stay in the capital during the war can... It can be said that there are very few of them.
Later, He Daqing's grandfather was set up and participated in a gambling game. He lost most of his family property. He felt too ashamed, so he ran away with the widow. Before leaving, he left an ancestral motto that"the descendants of the He family must not gamble."
Of course, this ancestral motto is only for the descendants of He Daqing's lineage, and the other branches of the He family do not recognize it. After all, He
Daqing's grandfather is only a person in charge of a branch of the He family, not the eldest branch of the main branch, so how can he be qualified to establish ancestral mottos for the He family.
But the people of the other branches of the He family do not recognize it, but He Daqing and his friends cannot deny it.
Therefore, the predecessor taught Sha Zhu since he was a child, asking him to remember these two ancestral mottos firmly in his heart and not to get involved in gambling and drugs.
Seeing that Sha Zhu still remembered the ancestral motto of the He family, He Daqing nodded and said,"It's good that you can remember it. I'm really afraid that you will forget even the ancestral motto when your brain is hot."
After He Daqing finished speaking, he could not help but move, and thought of the other branches of the He family.
From ancient times to the present, our Chinese people have paid more attention to clans, especially in ancient times, which is more like a clan society than a feudal society.
There is a difference between clans and families. A family can be a family, but a clan is composed of multiple families with the same surname, a large number of members, and a very long history.
To put it more bluntly, the so-called clan is traced back to an ancestor. As long as they have the same surname and can be traced back to an ancestor, everyone is of the same clan.
Especially in later generations, in order to join the platform of a certain large clan, it is just a matter of modifying the family tree for their ancestors.
In order to deal with this situation, dynasties throughout the ages have even introduced special policies, and formulated various restrictions and even laws regarding the modification of family trees.
There is a Qing Dynasty law that stipulates:"Any modification of the family tree must be reported to the government and reviewed by the government before it takes effect, otherwise it will be considered illegal"
"If the descendants want to compile a family tree, they can only trace back to the fifth generation ancestor at most, or take the ancestor who led the whole family or the whole clan to move to the local area as the ancestor. They cannot go back dozens or even hundreds of generations, otherwise they will be severely punished."
From this we can see that the Chinese people attach great importance to clans.0 (To read violent novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
In fact, let alone this era, even two thousand years later, the clan atmosphere is very strong.
Especially in some local big and prominent families, when it is time to worship their ancestors, clansmen from all over the world, at home and abroad, gather together, which can be called a grand event.
He Daqing thought of the other branches of the He family.
He was thinking about whether he could get in touch with the He clan members who went south.
In this way, even if he really goes to Hong Kong Island in the future, he will not be isolated and excluded.[]
You know, when the main branch of the He family chose to go south, there were thousands of He family members who followed the main branch. There were three or four hundred armed guards alone. They also carried a lot of wealth accumulated by the He family for generations, and gathered the elite talents of the He family.
As long as these people did not encounter bandits on the road and were not wiped out, they would definitely be able to start their business again in the south.
This is indeed the case.
In the memory left by his predecessor, he seemed to have heard from his cheap father that several branches of the main branch of the He family seemed to be doing quite well in the Guangdong and Guangxi areas in the south.
The only pity is that the unreliable father of the predecessor, He Chengming, ran away with the widow Cai too early, and did not leave any way to contact the other branches of the He family.
In other words, he felt that his branch was doing too badly and he was too ashamed to contact the people on the main branch.
So before running away, he did not mention this to his predecessor.
Therefore, even though He Daqing knew that the He family was doing well in Guangdong and Guangxi, he did not know the specific situation, let alone how to contact them.
"I wonder if my cheap second uncle knows about the mountain."
"I hope my cheap grandfather has told him about this, otherwise it will be difficult."
He Daqing thought with a headache.
He felt that there was no reliable person in the He family for several generations.
They were not good at anything and only knew how to hook up with widows. Finally, when it came to Sha Zhu's generation, he fell directly into the hands of the widow, cutting off the incense of the He family.
If the people from other branches of the He family knew about this, they would definitely laugh at him. It's no wonder that He Daqing's cheap grandfather and his father, even if they went to marry into someone else's family, never thought of contacting the main branches, and they were unwilling to let the children have their own surnames. They really don't have the face to do this..
