C273 Qing Family's Major Event
Under the gazes of all the core members of Qing family, Yang Qiu walked over indifferently. His eyes revealed a kind of calmness, causing the patriarch of the Qing Family to nod his head secretly.
"Hello, old man. "
Yang Qiu bowed to the patriarch of the Qing family, then he sat down on the left side of the old man of Qing family without any hesitation.
Looking at Qing Kaize and the others, Yang Qiu's seat was on the right side of the patriarch of the Qing family. He was facing a family like the Qing family. No mistakes were allowed in his position.
Since ancient times, the left side had always been respected. As the patriarch of the Qing family, the old man was naturally the most respected position. Under the two main seats, the left side, the right side, and the right row were divided according to the ranking of each person in the family.
Every year, the family meeting of Qing family would summarize the achievements of all the core members of the family for the past year, and then decide whether their ranking would rise or fall.
After Yang Qiu sat down, the old man from the Qing family looked at everyone and said indifferently:
"This is the family meeting that I have decided to hold at the last minute. All the core members of the family will participate in this meeting. Today, I have a few things to announce. The first thing I want to announce is Qing Ning's marriage. "
The moment the patriarch of the Qing Family spoke, it immediately attracted everyone's attention.
When the word 'marriage' was mentioned, Qing Ning, who was standing behind the patriarch of the Qing Family, blushed again and lowered her head even more.
The matter between Yang Qiu and Qing Ning was known by the entire Qing family. Everyone was well aware that it was already certain that Yang Qiu would become the son-in-law of the Qing family. However, according to tradition, there was still a lack of proper legal procedures between the two of them.
And now, the patriarch of the Qing Family had brought this matter up personally. From now on, it was only logical for everyone to address Yang Qiu as their son-in-law.
Of course, to be able to make the patriarch of the Qing Family announce it personally, this matter was really too shocking.
After all, even though Qing Ning was the eldest daughter of the third generation, But in the end, she was still a woman. Furthermore, a girl had to marry out. Yang Qiu wasn't marrying into the family as his son-in-law. The wedding of Qing Kaize, the number one man of the third generation, had shaken half of the country. The patriarch of the Qing family had only shown his face at the wedding ceremony.
Qing Kaize, if nothing unexpected happened, was the number one man among the three generations.
Although the core members of the Qing family were shocked, no one dared to make a sound.
"First, I'll put it at the end. First, I'll talk about the second thing, about the third successor. "
The Qing Family Head slowly said:
"Kaize, come up. "
No matter how calm everyone was, they were still shocked.
Qing Kaize was the number one candidate in the third generation, but he was only the candidate, not the heir.
The identity of the successor and the identity of the number one successor were two worlds apart.
This was equivalent to the Emperor having dozens of sons. Everyone was given a position for all princes. Whoever was ranked number one could become the Crown Prince. However, the gap between this and becoming the Crown Prince was too great. The difference was too great.
Qing Kaize was indeed outstanding amongst the three generations, and he had a gentle personality. He was good at handling all kinds of problems in the family, and he had received a lot of praise from many people.
Qing Kaize's father was Second Master Qing's elder brother and also the eldest son of the second generation of Qing family. It would be a lie to say that he was unhappy when he saw his son become the third generation successor. However, at this moment, he could only suppress the excitement in his heart and sit still. Although he had a serious expression on his face, his face had already turned red.
"Why did you decide the successor so quickly? Is there something wrong with my ears?"
"What is the clan head trying to do? Isn't this against the rules of the family? Isn't such a major event only announced at the most important family worshipping ceremony every year, and then paid homage to the ancestors? "
"Silence!"
Second Master Qing glanced at everyone indifferently. Immediately, all the discussions disappeared without a trace.
The Qing family was a huge family, and they were able to maintain such a big family. If it was only by relying on family love, it was definitely far from enough. Who wouldn't want to become the heir of the family?
Qing Kaize held back the palpitations in his heart and quickly walked forward. Then, he knelt respectfully in front of the patriarch of the Qing Family.0
"Patriarch!"
In this kind of family gathering, one could not call grandfather. Just like the Emperor's court, everything had to follow the most stringent rules.
On the right side of the patriarch sat a few old men who were even older than him. They were the elder brothers of the patriarch. In Qing family, their strength and status were considered supreme.
One of the old men coughed. He looked at the Qing Family Patriarch and said in a flat tone:
"Patriarch, isn't the matter of the third generation successor a little too childish? After all, this is a big matter that involves the family for thousands of generations, so it's better to be more careful"
The patriarch of the Qing Clan smiled faintly, glanced at the few elders, and slowly said:
"This matter is urgent, everyone, don't say anymore. I have my own ideas. Kaize, you are modest and have a dignified character. From now on, you are the successor of the third generation of the family. I hope that you will do things seriously in the future and be a good person. "
Qing Kaize's body trembled as he bent down and said with a trembling voice.
"Yes, Family Head. "
"Alright, stand aside.
Qing Kaize immediately stood up from the ground, then walked behind Yang Qiu and stood at the right side of Second Master Qing.
Not everyone could stand in this position.
This indicated that from today onwards, Qing Kaize's position in the Qing family would be changed from the number one of the three generations to the number three in the entire family.
Normally, everyone would address each other according to seniority. However, once something big happened in the family or an important meeting was convened, Qing Kaize would be qualified to sit in the middle.
This was a position that many people in Qing family dreamed of in their entire lives.
"Now, let's talk about the third matter. "
A smile appeared on the face of the old man from Qing family. He looked at Yang Qiu and said.
"I'm sure everyone knows about what happened in the capital during this period of time. It's time for us to make a choice since our Qing family has existed for a thousand years. Two days ago, Qing Changming selected a group of young children from the core members of the family. I think everyone has seen it. These children. . . They will become the first batch of cultivators in the Qing family, and their future positions. They will become the core members of our family. "
After saying that, the patriarch looked at everyone and said indifferently:
"As long as you are the direct family members of these children, from now on, your treatment in the family will be increased by three levels. "
In the hall, many of the people who were initially serious immediately wore smiles on their faces.
The patriarch of the Qing Clan said with a faint smile:
"Next up is the most important thing. "
Everyone immediately did not dare to make a sound, waiting for the Head of the Qing Clan to speak.
"Everyone is a core member of the family. If there is any leakage of today's matter, then don't blame the family for being merciless. "
The patriarch of the Qing family looked at everyone once again and slowly spoke.
