"Since all the respected elders have gathered here, Wenshu encountered such a major event upon returning to the clan. Fortunately, we discovered it early. If we had been a little more careful, we would have been a little late.

Just imagine the defenseless women, children, and the elderly and infirm in our village. The consequences are simply unimaginable!" Wen Shu said this with a look of fear on her face.

Du Suan, who was standing by, sighed, "Ah, this matter! You can't avoid it even if you want to."

He is a meticulous person and knows a lot of inside information, so he would never easily reveal a word like this.

However, the situation is now very different. Although the situation is extremely dangerous this time, if they delay for a moment longer, their Du family will probably face a catastrophe, and the entire family will become food for those evil people.

Although everyone had been dispersed and properly resettled, Du Suan knew in his heart that the crisis had not been completely resolved, so he did not dare to relax or be careless at all.

"Second brother, I told you long ago to take up the banner and rebel, but you didn't listen. You talked about being loyal, honest, and righteous, and kept the last words of not disturbing Shu." Du Suzhi might have heard something that touched his heart, and understood the hidden meaning of his second brother's words.

Hearing something different, his eyes lit up and he couldn't sit still anymore.

"Du Suzhi, stop your nonsense! Our ancestors' teachings are what we must obey. We once had great respect and reverence for the Han Dynasty and our lord."

Seeing that the old man was about to talk nonsense again, Du Suan immediately shouted at him angrily.

This time, he has already seen some clues.

Now, the newly appointed patriarch seems to be low-key and introverted, and he doesn’t like to talk much on weekdays, but he is actually a doer.

Although she never said a word, as long as she wanted to do something, whether it was something she should do or not do, she would do it all silently.

as predicted--

Just as Du Suan's voice had just fallen, Wen Shu slowly spoke.

"Sixth uncle, you think so too!" Wen Shu's words were not a question, but an affirmation.

"Of course, you girl, don't you think about it? If I don't try to make further progress in the family, I will be honored if it really succeeds." Master Du Liu responded quickly as if he had found a soulmate.

Upon hearing this, Wenshu knew that her sixth uncle was up to something.

Over there, he hadn't finished talking yet, "Tell me, if I didn't have this idea, what would I do in my life to earn so much money? What's the point? Money can't be brought into this world and it can't be taken away from this world. If I don't spend this money this way, I won't be at peace when I die!"

"Sixth Brother, we all know that you have a lot of money. If you really have no money, you can donate to some young people in the clan. They are all descendants of the Du family and will remember your kindness in the future." A fat elder immediately spoke when he heard about the wealthy Du Sixth Brother.

"What a thing! The descendants of the Du family, if they have the ability to make money, they will have a good life, and if they don't, they will have a bad life.

"It's nothing to stare at the few cents in my pocket. It's nothing to have such a useless descendant, so poor and destitute at such a young age. I would rather watch him starve to death than lend a hand."

Du Suzhi's words were full of disgust, as if some dirty thing had come out of his stomach and he had to look at it carefully.

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other, their eyes vaguely passing over the Second Elder.

Everyone present here knows that the second elder’s precious courage has been coveting the sixth elder’s for a long time.

……

"Sixth Uncle, that's not how you say it," Wen Shu said.

Du Suzhi felt relieved at first, thinking that Wen Shu had the same idea as him and was ready to do something big. To show his sincerity, he even laid out all his family assets, but he didn't expect it.

He felt that Wen Shu was a little ungrateful, and glared at her angrily, "What do you mean? They've come to my doorstep, and you still think it's safe here, this world is safe.

The other tribesmen have never left the village and may think that the world is peaceful. But everyone here is not a deaf person who is cut off from the news. You know more about the situation outside than him."

As he said that, he looked at Wen Shu and said bluntly, "Chief, you also came in from outside, you know this best."

"Hey, uncle, don't worry, don't worry!" Wen Shu hurriedly comforted him. This sixth uncle was still as unreliable as ever, except for making money.

He explained, "Uncle, this is not the ancestral precept. When our ancestors spoke of this, it was about a hundred years ago. However, the Han Dynasty and the Liu Han Dynasty had already changed to a new world.

We have been guarding this area peacefully for so many years and have not gone out to cause trouble, which can be regarded as listening to the teachings of our ancestors."

"The clan leader is right. Times have changed. Although our Du family has disappeared from the outside world for so many years, if we really have to, our Du family will still be able to fight," the second elder said at the right time.

"Second uncle is right. The main reason I came here this time is for this matter," Wen Shu responded.

The words were on his throat and turned away. The Sixth Elder, who was furious a moment ago, raised his chin the next moment, looking as if it should have been like this.

After hearing this, although everyone felt a little uncomfortable, they knew that this was the only way to break the current situation and ensure that the Du family would not be on the other side of the knife in the future.

……

Feeling that the time was almost right, Wen Shu took the opportunity to speak, "Second Uncle, I wonder how our Du family's troops and those people in the dark are doing..."

how--

Yes, how—

Everyone also had doubts in their minds. Although he had been the patriarch of the family for these years, they were not clear about the affairs of the clan members. This matter had always been handled by the second elder.

Over the years, as we watched the clan become poorer and poorer, with no decrease in income, the money we spent was like thrown into the water, without making a splash.

Everyone sitting there was as curious as Wenshu.

Du Suan felt the heated gazes of the crowd, and after a moment's hesitation, he did not answer Wen Shu's question. Instead, he solemnly asked, "Chief, does what you just said count?"

After saying that, he looked at everyone present and continued to ask, "Everyone, have you thought about it?"

There was no other expression on Du Suan's face, but everyone present, including the matchmaker, could feel that the few short words he uttered weighed a thousand pounds.

……

"Su'an, I think this is a good idea," replied the elder.

"Yes, it's so late now. I guess people outside don't know how powerful our Du family is," said the fat elder.

"Second brother, I agree with this, I fully support it." Du Laoliu's reaction was the most intense and passionate. He stood up and stood in front of the Second Elder with his eyes shining. He was about to step forward and pry open the Second Elder's mouth to ask the question he wanted to ask the most.

……

Du Su'an looked at Su Zhi, who was old but still lively, and turned away.

He held the armrest of the chair, stood up, turned around and performed a clan salute to Wen Shu.

How could Wenshu dare to accept this? Not to mention that her second uncle was an elder and had been working hard for the clan's affairs all his life, she simply could not bear it.

He quickly helped the Second Elder, who was about to bow his head, to his feet and said, "Uncle, what are you doing..."
