C2417 The fight for the head of the family
"I'm not sure about this yet, so please continue. What happened next?" Qi Tianyu felt that he had yet to come to a conclusion, and it was better not to make it randomly. This Soul-taking Arts was not something that ordinary people could learn, other than the people in the Vermillion Bird forbidden zone, he did not believe that anyone else would be able to learn it skillfully.0
"After my father died, the Xu Family was in chaos. My sister was ill on the bed and her health had not recovered yet, but she forced herself to come out and take charge of the situation."
"Shouldn't your sister be the one to become a Patriarch? How did it become you? "
"This matter is quite long, so listen to me carefully. Because he's a spy, after he died, we didn't find any clues, and I didn't know where Chen Family came from, so I quickly rushed over to attend my father's funeral. I thought of the letter that was handed over by that person, and I believed that it must have something to do with Chen Family." Xu Chang continued, and Qi Tianyu quietly listened to his narration.
Chen Wu brought a group of people to Xu Family. Although it was said that they were worried about Xu Wei, in reality, they were here to see who exactly was the new Patriarch. Upon hearing that it was Xu Qian, he expressed his confusion.
"The Xu Family has never raised a female Patriarch in all these years. Aren't you doing this today to shame your ancestors?"
Not long after arriving at the Xu Family, Chen Wu ran over to find Xu Qian. At this time, Xu Qian's body had not fully recovered, but he was still trying to take care of some matters. Towards this close friend of her father, she had been extremely polite in the beginning, but after hearing this sentence, she couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Chen, what do you mean by that? Isn't my ability worthy of being a Patriarch? "
"Oh, Sissy, I didn't mean it that way, but you're a girl, and sooner or later you're going to have to give that seat to your brother. Sooner or later, this belongs to your little brother. If you want to marry someone, wouldn't this position be given to someone else for nothing? " From the time that I knew that the daughter of this good friend of mine had always been hot-tempered, and couldn't stand being advised by others, I could only calm down and prepare to properly persuade her. After all, compared to Xu Qian, Xu Chang was much easier to control, and their relationship was even better.
"Uncle, your words are funny, even if I don't want to get married, even if I do, that person will have to come to my house to be married off. Don't worry, this position will always belong to us, our Xu Family, and won't be given to anyone else." The current Xu Ling was also much weaker than before, because her father's death and the pain in her own body had caused her to lose her arrogance and domineering attitude.
Little Qian, what I have said is all for the good of your family. What does a girl like you want to be the Patriarch so much, yet you don't even want to think about it for your brother? Doesn't he want to become Patriarch? "
, who was walking in this direction, also heard these words. His suspicions towards Chen Wu deepened, and the moment he arrived, he instigated a relationship between him and his sister. What kind of person could be considered. Xu Chang pushed open the door and shouted at Chen Wu, "Uncle Chen, there's no need for you to worry.
Seeing his brother suddenly come in, Xu Qian looked at her timid brother, and was unable to say anything, but she never thought that his words would be so sonorous and forceful, causing her to admire him greatly. When Xu Qian came down to pull Xu Chang over, she said to Chen Wu, "Uncle Chen, you saw it too, my brother doesn't care, what else do you care? Then I won't marry anyone if I put my words here, okay? "You should be relieved now."
When she left, Xu Qian immediately coughed out. Just now, she was forcing herself to speak, but she already felt extremely uncomfortable inside, and when Xu Chang saw that Xu Qian was sad, she supported her and sat down on her chair. She said with a pained heart, "Big sister, you should find something for me to do.
"No need, you can just wait there quietly. You don't need to decide these things." Xu Qian waved her hand and let him go out. Xu Chang's expression was somewhat gloomy, he had always looked down upon him as an older sister.
After Xu Chang left, Xu Qian's expression did not look too good either. His mind was indeed in a mess, he had never thought that her own brother would want to fight for the position of Patriarch with her, but because Chen Wu had mentioned him and the elders who were bragging in his ears, she was truly afraid. Becoming the Patriarch was her dream all along, and now that he had become the Patriarch, she would never retreat, even if it was her own brother she wanted to fight for it with him.
Before the two of them had even finished dealing with their father's funeral, there were already some gaps. Xu Chang naturally didn't know what Xu Qian was thinking, she had never been ambitious, and never thought of becoming some Patriarch, so right now, his thoughts were all on finding out who the real culprit was. Right now, his suspicions towards Chen Wu had deepened, and what happened back then when Qi Tianyu was still around, so he felt that Chen Family must have some malicious intent towards his family.
When Chen Wu made his move, it would be on the day before Xu Qian officially became a Patriarch.
The new Patriarch was ranked higher, so logically speaking all the young and old people of Chen Family would need to come to celebrate, but because of Chen Wu's sudden death, many things were very messy, so the ceremony became very simple, and there were not many people coming. But Xu Qian knew that many people did not think much of his position as Patriarch.
Chen Wu was the first one to strongly oppose this decision. The night before, he had barged into Xu Qian's room, and the tone in which he had spoken at the time was already not as good as the first time he had come.
"Xu Qian, your father's body isn't even cold yet. You're already impatient to become a Patriarch, aren't you afraid that your father will scold you from the bottom of the Yellow Springs? Tomorrow's family ceremony will be canceled right now. " Chen Wu knew that it was impossible to be soft, so she could only use tough methods. Since her Chen Family was lacking a leader, these two children were no match for him.
Chen Wu felt that Chen Wu's sudden change in expression was very strange, but she did not want to fight him head-on. After all, Chen Family and they had to work together in the future.
"Uncle Chen, I hope you don't miss me so much. Give me a chance, I'll definitely let you see that I'm definitely the best candidate to become the Patriarch." It was not easy for Xu Qian to let go of her face and speak in such a weak manner, but she did not expect Chen Wu to not appreciate her kindness at all and got angry instead.
