Chapter 433: The Excitement of the Aunties

Three days later.

At the entrance of the temporary kitchen setup in front of the Ye Clan's ancestral hall, over a dozen large iron pots were simmerizing meat, and the rich aroma of meat was wafting through the air. Within a few dozen meters, the scent of meat could be clearly detected.

The spacious ground in front of the ancestral hall was now filled with hundreds of tables and chairs, on which were arranged various snacks and drinks.

Today was the day all the aunts had been called back for the clan meeting.

With the considerable wealth of the Ye Clan, hundreds of aunts were called back to the ancestral hall, and the preparations were made to welcome them.

Because the aunts were from various distances, some had to travel farther than others, but the meeting was scheduled for the afternoon.

For those who lived closer, there was enough time to return.

For those who lived farther, it was best if they could return, but if they could not, they would send someone to relay the details of the meeting.

At noon, the entire clan gathered in, a red por of meat por, been prepared, in the ancestral hall, enjoying a savory meal and snacks.

This porridge was the same as the one served at the social gatherings, all cooked in large pots, and the meat broth was used to cook the porridge. In the final stages of cooking, pig blood was added, and the flavor was adjusted to create a pot of incredibly delicious pig blood porridge.

By this time, most of the aunts had already arrived.

They gathered with their relatives, enjoying the porridge while chatting casually.

Among the many aunts, the one who was particularly eye-catching, was the one who had married into Long Spring Village.

Because of this clan meeting, everyone knew that she had been beaten by her husband, and then the clan head personally went and beat her husband.,

Each time he beat her, he would apologize profusely once he sobered up.

To be honest, Deng Sifang was truly afraid and had grown tired of living in constant fear of being beaten for no reason.

She had thought about divorce, but in this era, divorce was extremely rare in rural areas. Moreover, they had two or three children. What would happen to the children if she divorced?

She had also thought about telling her parents, but what good would that do? She only had one younger brother, while her husband's family had four or five brothers, and their houses were all connected. How could her brother possibly stand up to them?

Additionally, as the clan head had said, she was afraid of losing face.

Therefore, for these past few years, Deng Sifang had endured. She truly did not want to live like this for even one more day, but she had no choice.

At this moment, the clan head's words struck a chord deep within her heart.

On the stage, Deng Shirong continued, "Thinking about the hundreds of our Ye Deng Clan's aunts who might be suffering from domestic violence, I have specially convened this aunt clan meeting today to stand up for all our aunts.

From now on, anyone who dares to beat our Ye Deng Clan's aunts will be dealt with by me personally.

However, one thing needs to be made clear: you must be resolute. If he beats you repeatedly and you still feel sorry for him and don't want us to deal with him, then it's like Zhou Yu beating Huang Gai—both willing to take the beating and the beating.

As long as you are resolute, we will do whatever it takes to make him pay. Even if it means breaking his limbs, it won't be a problem.

In short, from now on, the three thousand plus members of our Ye Deng Clan will be your strongest support.

With us, no one will be able to bully you."

These words stirred the blood of the clan members.

"Grandpa Jiu's words are well said. If anyone dares to beat our Ye Deng Clan's aunts in the future, we will make sure they regret it."

"That's right. No matter who it is, if they dare to touch our aunts, we will beat them until they beg for mercy."

"Ladies, do any of you need us to step in for you right now?"

"..."

The clan members felt a great sense of pride in being able to stand up for their married aunts. Their enthusiasm was high, and they were eager to find someone to help.

The aunts, upon hearing this, were also very moved. With the clan head's support, they now had a protective charm. They could go back and tell their husbands about the clan meeting, and it would be surprising if their husbands weren't terrified.

Especially aunts like Deng Sifang, who had been beaten countless times by their husbands, were moved to tears. They finally had their family to stand up for them, not just one or two, but the entire clan of three thousand people. Their confidence was truly overwhelming.

They did not immediately step forward to ask the clan members to help them, but decided to give their husbands one last chance. If they never raised a hand against them again, the past could be forgotten. If, however, they still dared to beat them, they would not be blamed for being ruthless.

After everyone had discussed this for a while, Deng Shirong spoke again from the stage, "Clan members, as the saying goes, 'Do not do to others what you do not want done to yourself.' We are holding this aunt clan meeting to stand up for our Ye Deng Clan's aunts, to prevent them from being bullied by their in-laws, and to stop their husbands from repeatedly beating them.

Since we do not want our aunts to be beaten, we must also take this as a warning and not beat other people's aunts.

Therefore, from now on, all clan members must get along well with their wives. If there are any conflicts, arguing is fine, even if you argue until the sky falls, no one will interfere. But remember, you must never raise a hand against your wife.

If I find out that anyone in the clan beats their wife, they will be prepared to kneel in the ancestral hall."

These words silenced the clan members as if their throats had been clamped shut.

The wives present were initially stunned, then they burst into enthusiastic cheers:

"Long live Grandpa Jiu!"

"Long live Ancestor Jiu!"

"Long live the clan head!"

It was no wonder these wives were so excited. The clan head's words were a strong support for them! Although the punishment of kneeling in the ancestral hall was not as severe as being beaten to the ground, they were still satisfied.

After all, kneeling in the ancestral hall in front of the entire clan would be a great loss of face. So, with the clan head's words, they were truly satisfied. This was like an insurance policy for them, ensuring they would not be bullied by their in-laws from now on.

Deng Shirong said solemnly, "Also, our Ye Deng Clan is a clan that values reason. We are standing up for all our married aunts today, but this support is only to prevent them from being bullied by their in-laws or beaten by their husbands. It is not to allow them to bully their in-laws or their husbands in return."

"You must remember this clearly: if you use the name of the Ye Deng Clan aunt to bully your in-laws, don't blame the clan for not recognizing you as an aunt."

"In short, as long as no one offends us, we will not offend them. As long as you are in the right, all three thousand members of our clan will be your strongest support."

Supporting the aunts is essential as it can enhance the clan's cohesion and make the married aunts proud of their Ye Deng Clan origins. However, this support is not without principles. If an aunt uses her clan's influence to bully her in-laws, the clan must not support her, as doing so would tarnish the clan's reputation. As the clan head, Deng Shirong naturally had to clarify this beforehand to prevent any potential issues.

Hearing this, the hundreds of aunts expressed their understanding, assuring that they would not bully their in-laws and only seek to protect themselves from being bullied.

Once the aunts had discussed this sufficiently, Deng Shirong continued, "What I mentioned earlier was about physical strength, which can ensure that none of you will be bullied by anyone in your in-laws' homes. Next, I want to talk about financial power."

This statement caused the crowd to exchange puzzled looks, unsure of what the clan head was getting at.

"Physical strength can only make people fear you, but financial power can ensure that you are respected and loved by your husbands and in-laws." Deng Shirong spoke from personal experience, knowing that in the future, where money was king, almost everything was tied to financial gain.

For example, consider the elderly in the future. If they have no retirement income and cannot contribute to their children's households, they become a burden. In families with multiple sons, it's common for the responsibility of caring for the elderly to be passed around, with each son unwilling to take on the burden.

Even if the sons take turns caring for the elderly, it's rare for the daughters-in-law to treat them with genuine respect and care, often just providing the basics. However, if the elderly have a substantial retirement income, the sons and daughters-in-law will vie to care for them, showing them utmost respect and care, especially the daughters-in-law, who might not be as attentive to their own parents.

Why does this happen?

In a word: money.

This isn't just true for the elderly. When you apply the concept of money, you'll find that about ninety percent of people and situations are influenced by it.

In the city, the poor are ignored, while the rich have distant relatives even in the mountains. This is the truth of the matter.

When Deng Shirong called this meeting, he considered a critical issue: while using physical strength to protect the aunts can prevent them from being bullied, to ensure they are respected and live well in their in-laws' homes, financial power is essential.

"Therefore, I have decided to establish a brewery for the aunts, under the name of our Deng Group. We will allocate a portion of the profits each year to provide dividends to the aunts. This way, every aunt in our Ye Deng Clan, even if they do nothing, will receive a substantial annual dividend, allowing them to live comfortably."

With a smile, Deng Shirong continued, "Now we have the deterrent of physical strength and the allure of financial power. With these conditions, if you still cannot gain the respect of your in-laws, then you must be incompetent. I believe there are no such incompetent aunts in our Ye Deng Clan."

As soon as he finished speaking, at least half of the hundreds of aunts stood up, moved by his words.

They never imagined that the clan head would provide them with such significant support. The promise of having the entire clan as their backing, ensuring they would no longer be bullied by their in-laws or husbands, was already a pleasant surprise.

Now, the establishment of a brewery specifically for them, with annual dividends, was like a blessing from the heavens! While the Ye Deng Clan was now wealthy, with most families having savings of over ten thousand, the saying "a married daughter is like water that has been poured out" still held true. Wealthy parents did not necessarily mean wealthy married daughters.

Even parents who doted on their daughters could only provide limited support, far less than what they could give to their sons. For aunts who were older and had lost their parents, their only remaining family was their brothers, who could offer even less help.

Therefore, many of the aunts present had poor economic conditions.

Now, with the clan head establishing a brewery for them, ensuring they received annual dividends, it was truly a blessing from the heavens for those aunts with poor economic conditions.

"Grandpa, are you serious? We really can receive dividends every year?"

"Grandpa, rest assured, we are not incompetent. With the support of the entire clan and the dividends, who would dare to look down on us when we return to our in-laws' homes?"

"Clan Head, when will the brewery be established?"

"Clan Head, will we need to invest money for the brewery?"

"Clan Head..."

After the aunts' excitement, they couldn't wait to ask their questions.

Hearing their inquiries, Deng Shirong smiled and said, "Ladies, you don't need to invest any money. Since the brewery will also be part of our Deng Group, the company will cover the costs.

However, I need to clarify one point: the dividend amount will be adjusted according to the actual situation. It will ensure that you all can live comfortably, but it won't make you rich. If you want to become truly wealthy, you still need to work hard. Do you understand?"

"Clan Head, we understand. To receive a dividend that allows us to live comfortably without doing anything is already more than we could ask for."

"Clan Head, you have already provided us with the best conditions. We will work hard."

"Being a part of the Ye Deng Clan is truly a blessing."

"..."

The aunts all expressed their gratitude. They had grown up in a society that favored sons over daughters, where everything belonged to their brothers, and they were not related to the married daughters. Therefore, they didn't have greedy expectations.

What the clan head was offering them already exceeded their expectations.

Deng Shirong nodded inwardly. He provided dividends to the married aunts to enhance the cohesion of the Ye Deng clan and to increase its influence. He believed this news would spread quickly throughout the county, making other clans' aunts envious.

However, the support for the aunts had to have limits. They couldn't unconditionally help so many aunts become wealthy; they needed to work for it themselves, rather than receiving direct gifts from the clan.

With this, the clan meeting was nearing its end.

Originally, Deng Shirong had wanted to propose establishing a "Return to the Maiden's Home Festival," where all married aunts would return to their natal homes for a celebration at a fixed time each year. However, since the brewery hadn't been established yet and the aunts hadn't received their dividends, it was too early to establish this festival.

Once the aunts started receiving their dividends, they could set the day of the dividend distribution as the "Return to the Maiden's Home Festival" for the Ye Deng clan, making it a natural and fitting tradition.

After the clan meeting, it was time for the feast.

To welcome the aunts back to their natal homes, the clan had prepared an extremely lavish meal. The entire afternoon was filled with joy and celebration.

After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, the aunts who lived closer to their natal homes eagerly returned to their in-laws to share the good news with their husbands and children.

Those who lived farther away stayed the night at their natal homes and planned to return to their in-laws the next day.

...

Deng Yunzhen was 65 years old and one of the older aunts of the Ye Deng clan.

As an infant, during a time of war and bandit raids, her mother had carried her while fleeing from bandits one night. The sharp grass along the way had cut her legs, causing her to bleed profusely. She cried out in pain, but her mother, in the panic of escape, couldn't pay attention to such details and simply covered her mouth to keep her quiet.

That night, she suffered greatly, and as an infant, Deng Yunzhen had no memory of it. However, the cuts left a significant aftermath; her right leg, left untreated, left her with a limp.

Fortunately, in her time, many men couldn't find wives, so despite her limp, finding a husband wasn't difficult.

Her life had been filled with hardships, but now, in her old age, with her leg disability, she couldn't do much work, and her three daughters-in-law looked down on her.

Over the years, everyone in her natal family had become wealthy, but she had lost both her parents and her only brother. The remaining sister-in-law and nephews, being more distant relations, couldn't help her much.

At most, they would give her some money during the holidays.

She had been worried about her future, especially since her three daughters-in-law seemed unwilling to care for her if she became unable to take care of herself. Her sons were willing to care for her, but they had to work to earn money, so they couldn't provide the same level of care as her daughters-in-law.

Unexpectedly, the clan head of the Ye Deng clan called all the married aunts back, not only to support them but also to establish a brewery that would provide them with annual dividends.

This was like finding a pillow when you were sleepy for Deng Yunzhen.

With this support from the clan, her later years would definitely be much better.

She couldn't wait to return and see the expressions on her three daughters-in-law's faces when they learned she would receive dividends from the clan each year.
