Those who were not men of the Ye Family could not enter the Ye Family's ancestral hall.
Not only did the Ye Family have such a rule, but other families in Swallow Dock also had it. The Fang Family also had it.
If an outsider wanted to enter the Fang Family's ancestral hall, the Fang Family would definitely be extremely unwilling. Some strict families even had the rule that women could not enter the ancestral hall because in their view, women would eventually marry into other families. This rule was too disrespectful to women.
Back then, the Thousand Leaves Division died in battle in Swallow Dock. Not to mention placing the memorial tablet in the Fang Family's ancestral hall, it was impossible to even find a cemetery in Swallow Dock. Fortunately, the old drunkard Mo Qingdi took the initiative to offer his cemetery, and the many heroes of Swallow Dock maintained respect for the actions of the Thousand Leaves Division, so he was buried peacefully.
The stone room used by the Ye Family for seclusion was in the basement under the Ye Family's ancestral hall. He had already heard this information from his friend Ye Fengsheng. Ye Daowen didn't lie to him on this point.
Fang Yan understood the difficulties of Ye Daowen and Ye Daoling. Because if this happened in his family, grandfather would also be in a difficult position, right?
It was also because of this reason that Fang Yan spent so much time with Ye Daoling at the door. If he didn't waste so much time, he would have rushed in and hugged Ye Rou in his arms, or rather, Ye Rou hugged him in her arms. He just wanted to influence or conquer Ye Daoling so that he would agree to let him see Ye Rou.
Without the permission of the Ye Family, he wouldn't dare to break into the ancestral hall!
Otherwise, the entire Swallow Dock wouldn't let this rude and unreasonable person go. Fang Yan would become the public enemy of Swallow Dock.
When the old ancestor heard Ye Daowen's words, he also hesitated for a while. He raised his eyes and glanced at Fang Yan, then looked at Ye Daowen and asked, "Is there no other way?"
"No." Ye Daowen shook his head. He paused and said, "Unless Fang Yan is willing to marry into our Ye Family and become a disciple of our Ye Family —"
"—" Fang Yan's heart suddenly tightened. Father-in-law, don't play with your son-in-law like this, okay? Although I like your daughter very much, aren't you afraid of destroying our father-in-law and son-in-law relationship by making such a request to me? I am a very narrow-minded man.
Ye Daoling chuckled and said, "If Fang Yan is willing to marry into our Ye Family, there will naturally be no problem with this matter. I will even no longer oppose him and Wen Rou-"
The main reason why the Ye Family did not agree to Fang Yan and Ye Rou being together was because they did not want the martial artist with the greatest potential and future in their family to become someone else's. It had been hundreds of years, and the Ye Family only had the chance to produce a martial artist who was in the dao of heaven, but he was going to be tricked by that bastard from the Fang Family or some other bastard from another family. Who the hell could tolerate something like this?
How many people in the dao of heaven were there in the world?
This was not cutting flesh, this was digging out the heart.
The Ye Family needed an elite in the dao of heaven, and they needed Ye Wenrou to protect the Ye Family. In that case, the status of the Ye Family would rise again. Those who knew the truth would look at the Ye Family in a new light. Even the elders behind the red wall would look at the Ye Family in a new light. After all, the country or they themselves also needed the help of an elite in the dao of heaven to deal with some troublesome matters.
And in Neijiang, having an elite in the dao of heaven was equivalent to having a gold medal. Who would dare to provoke a family with an elite in the dao of heaven? When Mo Lightly Enemy was promoted to the dao of heaven, how glorious was the Fang Family? How could the Fang family hold their heads up high?
Mo Lightly Enemy waited at home for a year, but no one came to challenge him. He had just been promoted to the dao of heaven. This was like a woman who had just bought a dress, or a man who had just bought a luxury watch. No one came to ask him to go shopping or play cards. How could he have the chance to show off his new love in front of others?
Therefore, Mo Qing Di conquered the world alone with his sword, killing in all directions. It was also during that period that Mo Qing Di killed his way overseas and fought against the thirty-six islands of the East Ocean. He won every battle he fought. It was only when he encountered the Thousand Leaves Army that he wasted some time.
If Fang Yan and Ye Rou got married, Ye Rou would naturally marry into the Fang Family. In that case, would Ye Rou belong to the Fang Family or the Ye Family?
If she belonged to the Fang Family, then the Ye Family's expectations would naturally be disappointed. The Ye Family's strength would be greatly reduced. The Ye Family's meticulous nurturing and care.
People outside could fight fiercely for a house or a car. These families could do anything for an elite in the dao of heaven. Think about it, Ye Rou, who had broken through the obstacles and entered the dao of heaven, could become another Mo Lightly Enemy. She could become a black dragon, a divine dragon, an existence even more terrifying than them.
Such a talent — even countries were fighting over him, not to mention small families like theirs.
Ye Daoling was a politician. Politicians cared about gains and losses the most.
In his heart, Fang Yan was also a first-class talent. It could even be said that he was the most outstanding young man he had ever seen.
If he was a member of the Ye Family, Ye Daoling would wake up laughing even in his dreams.
However, he was a member of the Fang Family. He could even steal Ye Rou from the Ye Family.
This couldn't be!
Absolutely not!
However, if he could marry into the Ye Family, not only would the Ye Family not lose Ye Rou, they would also have Fang Yan. Ye Daoling would probably dream every night, and every time he dreamed, he would wake up laughing.
Hearing Ye Daoling's suggestion, the Ye Family's children were all full of joy.
Some of them were on good terms with Fang Yan, some were not on good terms with Fang Yan. However, no matter if they liked Fang Yan or hated Fang Yan, they had to admit Fang Yan's value.
He was the number one male maniac in Swallow Fort. Even Bai Xiu was killed by him.
Even Ye Fengsheng, the simple-minded fellow, couldn't help but grin. He thought to himself, 'My brother is indeed not an ordinary person. In order to win Fang Yan over, First Uncle and Third Uncle both agreed to his marriage with my sister.'
However, after thinking about it, he felt that something was wrong. If Fang Yan married into the Ye Family, then — what about the Fang Family? The Fang Family was not as big and prosperous as the Ye Family. Their Fang Family only had one son, Fang Yan. If Fang Yan became a member of the Ye Family, then the Fang Family would be cut off.
"Not good. This is not good. "Ye Fengsheng shook his head and sighed in his heart.
The Old Ancestor looked at Fang Yan and said, "Fang Yan, what do you say? Are you going to enter the ancestral hall or not? Do you want to see Rou Rou or not? "
Fang Yan bowed to the Old Ancestor and said apologetically, "Fang Yan blames himself for disturbing the Old Ancestor's rest in the middle of the night. When the sun rises, I will kowtow to the Old Ancestor to apologize. Thank the Old Ancestor for speaking up for me. Thank the Old Ancestor for protecting and loving me. "
Fang Yan looked at Ye Daowen and Ye Daoling and said: "I understand First Uncle and Third Uncle's difficulties. Only direct descendants can enter the ancestral hall — — the Ye clan has such a rule, our Fang clan also has such a rule, and the other clans of Swallow Dock also have such a rule — — I, Fang Yan, am a person with no authority, I cannot allow others to remove these rules for my sake — —"
"Big brother said that as long as you are willing to marry into the Ye Family, I am willing to personally lead you into the ancestral hall and let you see Rou Rou." Ye Daoling did not forget to persuade Fang Yan and said with a smile.
"Thank you uncle, and thank you third uncle. Thank you for giving me such a good suggestion. But, I cannot agree. "Fang Yan said with a firm expression.
"My grandfather had two brothers. He also had an older brother, but he died young, leaving only one daughter to marry abroad. She had no contact with the Fang family for many years. My father was the only son in my grandfather's family, and all three of my aunts were married. Three years ago, my father was killed by Bai Xiu at the entrance of Swallow Dock. The old drunkard, in my heart, has always been my uncle and my father's brother. He went to the Land of Extreme Cold. I don't know if he can come back. I am the only one left in the Fang Family. "
"I cannot marry into the Ye Family. I need to stay at home to take care of the elderly. I need to stay at home to inherit the bloodline. I need to carry forward the essence of Fang's Tai Chi. I also need — I need people to mention the Fang Family and not say that there is no man in the family. I am the face of the Fang Family. I am a flag raised by the Fang Family. I have too many responsibilities on my shoulders, and they're too heavy. So — I cannot marry into the Ye Family. "
Hearing what Fang Yan said, everyone was not surprised at all.
If Fang Yan agreed, it could only prove two points: First, there was something wrong with Fang Yan's head. Second, there was something wrong with Fang Yan's character.
He abandoned his father and mother and was willing to marry into the Fang Family for a woman — was such a man worthy of trust and entrustment?
Hearing Fang Yan's words, Ye Daoling felt it was reasonable. He felt some pity in his heart. He sighed and said, "Fang Yan, you have your reasons not to marry into the Fang Family. We also have our reasons not to let you in. We understand you, and you have to understand us. So, let's drop this matter. We don't need you to pay for the door. It's getting late. Even the ancestor got up to stay up with you. Go back quickly. Let our Ye Family return to peace. "
"I can't go back." Fang Yan said stubbornly, "I still want to enter the Ye Family's ancestral hall. I also want to see Ye Gentle. I feel that she is in danger. If I leave at this time — "
The ancestor sighed softly and said, "Little Yan-Zi, I know you are infatuated with Gentle. But this matter is really difficult to deal with. How about — "
"Ancestor, this time, let me use my own method to solve the problem." Fang Yan bowed to the ancestor again and said with a smile after getting up.
His smile was very faint, but also very warm. It made people feel happy.
"What method do you have?" The ancestor asked curiously.
Fang Yan looked at the many Ye Family men present and said, "You have the rules to not let me in. I also have my reasons to go in. So, if I force my way in — you can't stop me —"
"Fang Yan, don't you dare —" Ye Daoling was furious. Is this kid crazy?
Fang Yan's figure had already disappeared on the spot, rushing towards where Ye Daoling was standing.
