The opening day was an auspicious day.
All the important decisions of the clan in the pagoda village had to be carried out in the Lin clan's ancestral hall.
Today was the grand opening of the country bumpkin braised egg factory. The head of the family, Lin Yaodong, brought the younger generation to the Lin family's ancestral hall to worship their ancestors and pray for their blessings.
First household head Lin Yaodong stood in the middle, while second household head Lin Yaohua and third household head Lin Zonghui stood on both sides of eldest brother Lin Yaodong.
The rest of the descendants of the Lin family all stood behind the three house heads respectfully.
The head of the house was the clan representative of the villagers of the pagoda village, and also the incense bearer during the sacrifice.
Lin Yaodong was not only the village chief of the pagoda village, but he was also the head of the pagoda village and the patriarch of the Lin family.
Lin Yaodong was the leader of the three housekeepers. They all held incense sticks and bowed three times to worship the ancestral tablets in the ancestral hall.
The descendants of the Lin family had to kneel down and worship the Lin family ancestors.
Only the man surnamed Lin was allowed to participate in the entire ancestral worship segment. Female clansmen were not allowed to enter the ancestral hall.
In the pagoda stronghold, there was only one possibility for a woman to enter the ancestral hall, and that was to kneel in front of the head of the family and the ancestral tablets to receive the punishment of the family law for violating the clan rules.
In addition to the power to manage the pagoda village, the head of the household, Lin Yaodong, also had the "right to enter the genealogy" of the people surnamed Lin. To put it bluntly, it was up to the head of the household, Lin Yaodong, to decide who could enter the genealogy and who would be expelled from the genealogy for violating the clan rules.
The villagers of the pagoda village were basically all surnamed Lin. It was a typical clan system, so the villagers were very obsessed with entering the genealogy. This was a symbol of the clan's honor.
If he was expelled from the clan, he would be like an abandoned baby. He would no longer have the protection of the clan and would be kicked out of the clan.
After the ancestral worship ceremony ended, everyone returned to the braised egg factory.
Lin Yaodong gestured for Lin Tianhao to light the firecrackers. It was very lively. After the firecrackers burned out, the country bumpkin braised egg factory officially opened for business.
Lin Tianhao was Lin Yaodong's loyal follower. His parents had died early and he was an orphan in the pagoda village.
Lin Yaodong had sponsored Lin Tianhao's university and had doted on him for many years.
Lin Zonghui clapped his hands and said loudly,"Everyone, please give a round of applause. Let's invite our factory director to say a few words.”
Applause rang out.
Under the expectant eyes of the villagers, Lin Yaodong pushed his glasses and said without anger,"The family has its own rules, and the factory has its own rules."
"You have to say the ugly things first. I, Lin Yaodong, can shelter you from the wind and rain, but I can also make sure you don't see the light of day!”
"If anyone does something that is unfair to the factory and the Lin family, don't blame me for being rude.”
"Since you're working in the braised egg factory, you have to abide by your posts and do your part to ensure safe production.”
"As long as I, Lin Yaodong, am still the head of the Lin family, the factory will not mistreat you!”
After Lin Yaodong finished speaking, the applause was thunderous.
This was the good thing about the clan village. With Fang Tou as the leader, they were absolutely loyal and united.
"Everyone, return to your posts and officially start work!" Lin Yaohua said loudly.”
Amidst the cheers of the villagers in the pagoda village, the country bumpkin's braised egg factory began to officially operate.
Widow Wang (Wang Meina) approached Lin Yaodong and handed him a bottle of Arctic Ocean orange soda. She smiled charmingly and said,"Village chief, do you think my work uniform looks good?”
Widow Wang's curvaceous body was wrapped in a brand new female worker's uniform from the braised egg factory. She looked very handsome.
While no one was paying attention, Lin Yaodong slapped Widow Wang's buttocks hard.
"The others are already working, why are you still fawning over me? Hurry up and go back to work."
"Annoying!"
"You're hurting me!" Widow Wang swayed her hips and walked into the workshop.
"This little vixen!"
Lin Yaodong drank orange soda with a straw and looked at Widow Wang's enchanting back. He didn't quench his thirst at all.
"Uncle Dong, we've caught Lin Tiezhu's wife who ran away with someone else!" Lin Can walked over and said.”
"Tie Zhu's wife is in the ancestral hall, waiting for your decision.”
(Lin Can was the son of Lin Yaohua, who was also Lin Yaodong's nephew. He should be called Uncle Lin Yaodong, but in the movie, he was also called Uncle Dong.)）
Lin Yaodong's expression changed drastically after hearing that. He threw the unfinished orange soda in his hand into the trash can and said with his hands behind his back,"Carry out the family law."
Lin Yaodong walked in front with his hands behind his back. His nephew, Lin Can, followed closely behind.
The two of them quickly arrived at the Lin family's ancestral hall.
He saw Lin Tiezhu's wife kneeling in the ancestral hall, trembling in fear.
Lin Tiezhu's head was drooping, and his head was covered in green. He stood at the side and waited for Lin Yaodong to uphold justice for him.
Lin Yaohua and Lin Zonghui sat on both sides of the main seat in the ancestral hall.
Lin Yaodong sat in the middle of the main seat of the ancestral hall with a dark face.
Lin Yaohua said," After investigation, Lin Tiezhu's wife, Pan Jinmei, has violated the rules of the Lin family by abandoning her family. Brother, how should we deal with her?"”
Lin Yaodong glanced at Pan Jinmei, who was kneeling in front of him, and said sternly,"According to the ancestral family law, Lin Tiezhu's wife has not abided by the rules of womanhood and has disgraced the Lin Clan.”
Pan Jinmei was scared half to death when she heard that. She knelt on the ground and begged,"Uncle Dong, I was wrong!"
"Uncle Dong, please forgive me this time. I won't dare to do it again!”
Lin Yaodong did not soften his heart after hearing that. He said coldly,"Rules are rules. You broke the rules of the clan, so you have to pay the price.”
Pan Jinmei's expression changed instantly after hearing that. She cried and crawled to her husband, Lin Tiezhu, and begged,"Honey, I was wrong!"
"Hubby, please help me beg Uncle Dong to spare me this time!”
"Our son is only five years old. You can't let him lose his mother!”
Lin Tiezhu's heart softened after hearing that. He hesitated for a moment and then said,"Uncle Dong, the child is still young. Can you punish her appropriately and not harm her life?”
"Big brother, we are all saints and we all make mistakes." Lin Zonghui, the head of the third household, said.”
"Moreover, it's not easy for Zhu Zi to find a wife.”
Lin Yaohua said,"Brother, Zhu Zi's wife has admitted her mistake and Zhu Zi has forgiven her. She can be given a lighter punishment." Today is the opening day of our braised egg factory. It's not a big deal to soak this woman in a pig cage. It's unlucky to ruin the big day!”
Lin Yaodong frowned slightly after listening. He glanced at Lin Tiezhu and asked," Do you really want me to spare her?”
