Sure enough, as Xiang Nan expected afterwards, Bai Jiaxuan was successfully elected in the subsequent election of the patriarch.

  Although Bai Jiaxuan was very humble, saying that he had been in prison and should no longer be the patriarch of Bailu Village. Moreover, he has an aggressive temper, and he is afraid of causing trouble again when he becomes the patriarch, so he strongly recommends Lu Zilin to be the patriarch.

  But the folks still trust Bai Jiaxuan, he must be the patriarch.

  Even Lu Taiheng stood up and said that his son could not be the patriarch, but Bai Jiaxuan had to be the patriarch.

  So in the end Bai Jiaxuan became the head of the patriarch, and Lu Zilin, who failed to run for the head of the patriarch, turned his evil anger on his father, thinking that he helped him to tear down the stage, so he was not elected.

   "Who is it? Is there any reason in the world for my own Da to tear down my son?" He complained, even refusing to eat lunch.

"I don't tear down the platform, you fell harder." Lu Taiheng explained, "Look at the day Bai Jiaxuan came back, all the people in the village ran to greet him and left you alone on that platform. This is what the people want, you Don't you understand yet?"

   "It's not like there are people who support me. Don't Bai Xing'er, Sang Laoba, and Bai Shitouer all support me?" Lu Zilin immediately said again.

"Bai Xing'er, Sang Laoba, and Bai Shitou'er are all nothing. My grandma doesn't hurt, my uncle doesn't love me. I have sores on my head and pus on the soles of my feet. If you join them, you are called a shameful person." What?" Lu Taiheng scolded.

  Bai Xing'er, Sang Laoba, and Bai Shitouer are all well-known bums in the village.

   Dealing with them is a matter of losing one's place. Fortunately, the son still talks about him, so he really doesn't grow up!

   Lu Zilin was robbed by his father, and immediately had nothing to say, and could only sulk all by himself.

  …

  After Bai Jiaxuan became the patriarch, he wanted to do something big, and that was to repair the Bailu Ancestral Hall.

  The ancestral hall was built in the Qianlong year of the Qing Dynasty, and it has a history of two to three hundred years. Although it is a sacred place for worshiping Qi's ancestors, it is a public official property after all, so no one cares about it.

The gutters of the five halls and six houses are covered with fallen leaves and dirt, embroidered with green moss, and the pine grass grows two feet high; the holes in the rafters are ideal nests for sparrows to lay eggs and hatch; The **** was peeling off; the floor was hollowed out under the square bricks, and the bricks sagged.

  Bai Jiaxuan wanted to come forward and completely renovate the old Ketang.

   Come on, renovating the ancestral hall is a good thing to accumulate virtue, and the ancestors bless you. Secondly, by renovating the ancestral hall, the villagers can also be united with him.

   After all, building an ancestral hall is not an easy task. It needs to raise funds, materials and labor. If this matter can be done, then his position as patriarch will be considered completely stable.

   Whatever happens in the future, everyone will support him and respond to him, and will not have ambiguity with him.

  It's like the ancient emperors who always liked to build wonders such as pyramids, hanging gardens, giant statues of Zeus, and portraits of Easter Island.

  Although many of these wonders are of no use to anyone, the emperor will still spend a lot of manpower, material resources, and financial resources to do them.

   However, his proposal was unanimously rejected by the villagers.

  Everyone’s opinion is that building ancestral halls is indeed a good thing. But now it's May, and it's the busy season of farming, they really can't afford to be born, and they don't have a lot of money.

  Especially Lu Zilin jumped out to make trouble, saying that Bai Jiaxuan was building a ancestral hall with everyone's money to accumulate merits for Bai Jiaxuan alone, and the villagers couldn't get any benefits at all.

   He also sneered at Bai Jiaxuan and said that if you want to build the ancestral hall, you can build it alone, and all the blessings of your ancestors will belong to you in the future.

  Everyone was reluctant to build the ancestral hall, but they didn't dare to resist.

   Now that Lu Zilin said that, everyone immediately agreed, so the matter of Bai Jiaxuan Zhang Luoxiu's ancestral hall had to fall through.

  …

  But Bai Jiaxuan has a high spirit, and he is not the kind of person to be **** off.

  Since Lu Zilin asked him to repair it by himself, he simply sold the grain at home. I really plan to build the ancestral hall by myself.

  He wants to show the villagers that he, Bai Jiaxuan, is a man who keeps his word and spits every nail.

   Moreover, he also wanted to see what Lu Zilin would say after he finished repairing the ancestral hall, and what face he would have to come to the ancestral hall to discuss matters in the future.

  Bai Zhao was naturally very dissatisfied with this, "You have been the patriarch for decades, and you never said you used your own money to build the ancestral hall. Are you trying to **** me off?"

   "Okay, Mom, don't talk about it, my patriarch must do what he says, and we can't make people laugh." Bai Jiaxuan said.

   "Oh, you must make this family poor." Mrs. Bai Zhao said anxiously.

  I’ve never seen such a stupid person who pays for the maintenance of the ancestral hall by himself. Isn’t this stupid?

  At this moment, Lu San walked in, "Jiaxuan, are you there?"

   "Third brother, here it is!" Bai Jiaxuan agreed.

Lu San walked over immediately, and said with a smile, "Jiaxuan, I heard that you are going to build an ancestral hall. My son and I are both from our original land, so we can't ignore it. You see, this is something our father and son deserve. "

   As he spoke, he handed a red cloth bag to Bai Jiaxuan.

   Xiang Nan also received news about Bai Jiaxuan and Zhang Luoxiu's ancestral hall in the temple.

   Regarding this matter, he is noncommittal.

  Because he knows that this ancestral hall is just a spiritual sustenance, in fact, there will be no miracles, and it will not achieve the effect of protecting future generations.

  In the play, the ancestral hall of Bailuyuan was even destroyed by the bombs of the Japanese army, and he did not even have shelter.

   Moreover, the ancestral hall is also a representative of feudal rule.

  Bai Jiaxuan punished the villagers who ate, drank, prostituted, and gambled in the ancestral hall, and made them swear to quit gambling and drugs from now on. In order to teach them a lesson, they were beaten with wooden sticks, made to boil water to make money, and fed them rice paddies...

  Heiwa lost the qualification to enter the ancestral hall because she married Tian Xiaoe, who was divorced. And Tian Xiao'e was also not allowed to enter the ancestral hall because she did not obey women's morals...

  Therefore, Xiang Nan was unwilling to intervene in the construction of the ancestral hall.

  However, Lu San is very positive, thinking that their family is now a wealthy family with reputation, status and property in the village, and they should take the lead in doing something.

   Especially for the construction of the ancestral hall this time, their family should have more money. This is something that adds luster and makes the ancestors happy.

  Xiang Nan didn't want to refute Lu San's face, besides, the times have changed, his original reputation and status in Bailu was not comparable to that of Bai Jiaxuan.

  The construction of the ancestral hall can also demonstrate his status in Bailu Village, so he agreed. I gave Lu three hundred oceans and asked him to give it to Bai Jiaxuan.

   "Oh, third brother..." Bai Jiaxuan was very moved when he saw it.

  The whole village, young and old, did not support him, and he was a little disappointed. Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, Lu San was still powerful.

   "You accept it." Lu San said, "I also owed my ancestors to bless me to have such a good son. I should pay more to build the ancestral hall."

   "Thank you, third brother." Bai Jiaxuan nodded.
