"When the father dies, the son carries the banner and mourns for his father. This is the rule passed down by our ancestors. Could it be that the rules in your Yanjia Village are different from ours? Why do you let your nephew carry the banner when your own son is not around?"

Mrs. Wang Wu glanced at the Yan family with disdain.

Qiqi finally understood why the two families were fighting. It turned out that according to the rules in the countryside, the rules for the deceased to carry a banner were very serious.

When parents die and have sons, the eldest son or grandson will carry the banner. Only when there is no descendant will the nephew carry the banner. And the default rule is that whoever carries the banner inherits the deceased's property.

The uncle and aunt want their son to inherit the family business of the third uncle.

Isn't this clearly an attempt to drive Third Aunt and her two children away from Yanjiazhuang?

No wonder the Wang family wanted to fight with my uncle’s family?

Anyone who happens to her would be beaten for this. It's bullying a married girl who has no one at her parents' home.

"Yan Mingde, this is where you are wrong. Yan Mingguang is dead, and there is his son Yan Xian, so why would we need your child to go?"

Eighth Grandpa never expected that the Yan family would actually do such a thing as robbing other people's property.

He had just been protecting Boss Yan's family in front of the Wang family. Now that the truth was out, if any child from the Wang family spoke up, he would lose face.

Grandma Yan's lips trembled, and her old eyes stared at Yan Mingde sharply.

"Boss!"

Yan Mingde opened his mouth. No matter how dissatisfied he was, he couldn't contradict his mother in front of outsiders.

"Mother-in-law, don't worry about this. The third child is dead, what's the point of you still protecting her? If Wang Fenfang was a caring person, she shouldn't have watched our two families fight and said something sensible."

Zhang Chunhua was afraid that her mother-in-law would force her husband to give up the third son's family business in public, so she immediately turned around and yelled at Aunt Yan San,

"Wang Fenfang, tell me, do you want your son to carry it, or should I let my son carry it?"

"Let Ting'er carry it."

Qiqi frowned and looked at the person who was talking next to her. It was Yan Changsheng, who was a childhood friend of his third uncle.

That’s not right. Uncle San already has a son, so why should his daughter take care of everything? Qiqi doesn’t understand.

"No, my son or nephew should carry it."

Zhang Chunhua jumped out to object. She had made up her mind that even if the king came today, she would not let Yan Laosan's property fall into the hands of outsiders.

"Shut up, everyone. Don't move. We are here to solve the problem, and today this matter must be solved sooner or later."

Seeing the situation getting out of control, grandma fainted again. The two families started fighting again. The village chief yelled,

"Yan Mingde, look after your wife. If the matter is not resolved, the third son will not be buried. It will be a disgrace to your family and also to our Yanjia Village."

The village chief said so, Yan Mingde had to step forward and hold his wife. Everyone in the Wang family could see that the village chief of Yanjiazhuang was on their side. Besides, they only had these people, so they couldn't go too far in Yanjiazhuang.

"She is too weak and too anxious. Let her lie down for a while. It is not appropriate for her to be here right now."

Qiqi asked Yan Minglai to carry Grandma Yan back to the side room to rest, and she sat down on the chair where Grandma Yan had originally sat.

Grandma Yan fainted. After this chaos,

"There is no such thing as a girl carrying a banner."

As soon as both sides calmed down, Zhang Chunhua spoke immediately.

Zhang Chunhua has always valued money over life, she doesn't care about that. Her five sons, the youngest of whom is already 18, all want a house when they get married. She and her husband are exhausted, but they can't afford to buy five new houses in just a few years. Yan Lao San is the favorite of his parents-in-law. Among the three brothers, he has the largest property. In addition to this yard, there is also an empty residential land and a two-room house facing the highway. After the mother and son of Lao San were squeezed out, these properties are enough to accommodate her three sons.

"It's not appropriate for a son to let his daughter carry the banner, not to mention that Ting is an adopted daughter."
