Xianyu Infrastructure, I have a lot of troops in my hands

By the time everyone came to their senses, it was already the first month of the year.

Xie Xian took advantage of the New Year holidays to be lazy and stayed in the inkstone pool. Xie Yao and Xie Minyan took turns feeding her every day, which made Xie Xian reluctant to leave.

Fried chicken legs, braised food, hot pot. Xie Qiyan accompanied them at the beginning, but he gained weight quickly. In order to avoid becoming the second Fat Wen, he never came again.

After two days of disappointment, Aunt Ma started feeding the baby pears and fish eggs again.

The New Year passed by at a moderate pace.

At the clan's grand ceremony, Xie Zhong acted like the head of the family, as if Xie An's concession had made him a little inflated.

This grand sacrifice is a major event for the clan. First, it is to inform the ancestors that the Xie family has been getting better and better after a year of development. Second, it is to gather the clan members and win their hearts. Those who are studying or working in various places have returned to the clan one after another.

As a frequent visitor to the clan's ancestral hall, Xie Xian got to know almost all the members of the Xie family.

Xie Xiuyuan and Xie Ziqi bowed to Xie Xian from a distance. Xie Xian nodded, and then led a group of Xie family ladies forward.

Xie Ziqi sighed, "The queen is more powerful than before."

"No matter how powerful she is, she is just a girl," Xie Xiuyuan curled his lips. Xie Xian's attitude towards their first wife was just like that. They had never had much dealings with each other in the past, and most of the people she hired later were from the second wife. At most, they were girls from other families who were highly valued.

On the contrary, since most of the legitimate sons and grandsons were responsible for Xie An's work, Xie Xian recruited people to avoid them perfectly.

Xie Ziqi glanced at him and said unhappily, "Isn't it that Madam Xian is avoiding Young Master? How come, if Young Master was a man, would you still be able to sit here now?"

Xie Xiuyuan was stunned, and immediately broke into a sweat after thinking about it. He was glad that it was true. Xie Xian always avoided the first wife's family when hiring people, and never competed for them. This made some men complain.

They also wanted to save face. Xie Xian bypassed them and recruited their younger brothers and sisters, which made them feel that their status in the family was threatened. However, Xie Xian did not care about this. She only recruited some idle people in the clan, and most of them could not inherit the family business.

I shouldn’t offend anyone!

Xie Xian also used this idea as a motivational slogan for her employees, and always encouraged the second sons, illegitimate sons and girls who could not inherit the family business.

Becoming their motivation and creating a world for themselves is a story for later.

In previous years, the women of the Xie family were ranked at the back, but this time, Xie Xian was sitting right behind Xie Zhong, and no one had any objection.

The people lined up at the back whispered, "Oh my god, the young master didn't come back this time, and the limelight was taken away by the second house."

The person next to him glanced at him sideways and said nothing. It was obvious that this man had just returned and didn't know anything about the situation in the tribe, but he was chattering here.

But someone kindly reminded him: "Most of the clan members work for the second branch." You should shut up! Don't you know that you should be grateful to the people who feed you?

He suddenly looked at his fellow tribesmen around him and realized that this year's clothes for the sacrificial ceremony were much more gorgeous than in previous years.

Only then did I realize that the tribe had changed a lot in the past year, and the changes in the tribesmen were even greater.

His two younger brothers, no longer timid, stood up straight in the queue behind Xie Xian, chatting and laughing with their cousins.

The fear and jealousy on his face were gone, and the restlessness and confusion on his mother's face disappeared, leaving only calmness and composure.

When he returned home after studying abroad for half a year, he never expected that the brothers and sisters whom he once looked down upon had undergone such tremendous changes.

He watched the beautiful ladies from various families standing elegantly and calmly behind Xie Xian, no longer haggling over a hairpin, a ring, or a handkerchief, and no longer shyly avoiding these outsiders.

They stood up straight, showing off their feminine curves, and all of this was brought about by the girl in red standing in the front.

Xie Xian frowned slightly. Today was the day for the ancestor worship ceremony, and she was woken up at midnight to wash and dress. It was still dark now, and she had to stand in the front and blow the cold wind.

My uncle, on the other hand, remained motionless. When I turned around, I saw several rows of people standing behind him, and everyone was quite excited.

Xie Xian:?

What’s going on? There aren’t so many people in the second room!

The young girl slanted her eyebrows and looked behind her with indifference. Her solemn expression made everyone behind her immediately straighten up. Everyone shut their mouths, stood at attention, feet shoulder-width apart, and looked forward.

This is all thanks to Xie Xian's pre-employment skills training. Literacy is the foundation, and obedience is the key. To achieve this, nothing is more suitable than military training.

So behind Xie Xian, the clan members lined up in rows and columns, regardless of gender, like soldiers, casting a gloomy and murderous atmosphere on the waiting before ancestor worship.

This square formation was completed in an instant, and it was out of place compared to the clansmen from other branches who were scattered everywhere.

The others silently stepped back, and without waiting for Xie Xian to look over, they all put on their best manners, determined not to be outdone.

The great elder was leaning on his cane and looking at everyone with a smile. Unexpectedly, a dragon fish appeared in his own pond. Although it was young, it was enough to cheer up the other fish and shrimps. What a good thing!

'In the year of Renyin, the first month of the festival, the Xie family, the branch of Chen County, Yun Chongde Xia, four generations of descendants, the same clan, the same lineage, thousands of miles away to gather, blood ties, descendants, although stupid, poetry and books should be read, a tree a thousand feet tall, solid roots, water flows thousands of miles, from the springs......'

With Xie Zhong's recitation, the ancestor worship began. Everyone's faces were solemn, and they knelt, stood up, and bowed following the words of the ritual officer.

Xie Xian only felt that her blood ties with the same clan had been strengthened, and the ancestor worship BUFF was so terrifying.

After the ancestor worship, the New Year was complete. The next few days were filled with paying respects and visiting each other. However, since there were two or three cats in the second room, Xie Xian took Aunt Ma to Taozhuang to stay for two days.

The whole family had the New Year's Eve dinner together, and the whole family was happy.

"Ah Xian isn't a child anymore. If you find someone you like, bring him or her to meet us." After more than half a year of recuperation, Xie Changhuan's sick body was almost healed.

At this moment, Xie Minyan was sitting next to her father. Seeing Xie Xian being urged to get married, she sneered.

Xie Xian glared at him and laughed, "There are too few people willing to marry into a family these days! It's not that I don't want to find one!"

"No one who is willing to marry into the family is worthy of my Ah Xian." The old man sat at the top with a sad face.

Xie Xian rolled her eyes and said, "Instead of urging me, it would be better for Sixth Uncle to work hard and add someone to our second house."

Xie Changhuan's eyes widened. He never expected that urging him to get married would backfire.

"Min girl, do you have any ideas?" The old man was kind-hearted. If Xie Changhuan wanted to remarry, he had to ask Xie Minyan's opinion.

Xie Minyan lowered her head and thought for a while, "I am going to get married, and when the time comes, my father will be alone at home and he will inevitably be lonely." So she agreed.
