CHAPTER XXXV
Min Wei experienced a blood drop again, but this time the result was naturally the same as last time, in this way, the rumors that Min Wei was not Jiang's daughter would also disappear with the result of this blood drop, and the matter of not being allergic to Wei was solved, and Jiang Qinhan was in a little more trouble, but in Min Wei's heart, although this person was her father, he was far less familiar than a stranger.
"Speaking of which, the seventh brother's family affairs have been finished, and we should talk about the major events in this clan." Although the voice that spoke this time was very kind to Min Wei, she always felt that there was a little calculation in it.
"I don't know what the sixth uncle said about the big things in the clan?" It was Jiang Qinmian who spoke, after Min Wei heard him call the sixth uncle, she glanced at the person she said before, since the third uncle called him the sixth uncle, that is also her sixth uncle and grandfather, Min Wei only glanced at it and felt that this uncle and grandfather looked quite young, and the expression on his face looked very peaceful.
Min Wei sometimes thinks that the Jiang family's family system is too complicated, so that she has to be entangled in the title for a long time every time, and then irritable for a long time in the generation, as the youngest generation of the Jiang family, Min Wei can't help but want to look up to the sky and sigh every time she listens to Lan's mother talk about genealogy or when she recalls the genealogy at this kind of family meeting.
"Naturally, I care about who the next patriarch is, I am already thirty years old, and I have been married for more than ten years, but now I don't have a son and a half daughter, so I can't help but let us old guys not be in a hurry." The words of the sixth uncle and grandfather sounded like they really cared about Jiang Qinjin, but in Min Wei's opinion, there was always an uncomfortable feeling in it.
"Why should the sixth uncle worry, the family rules have not been stated a long time ago, the head of the clan is the head of the family, if the head of the family cannot take over, it is the lineage, if there is no one in the lineage, then the ancestral hall will be opened, and the position of the head of my clan should have been the eldest brother, but unfortunately the eldest brother joined the army to guard the border pass, so I took over, as for the next patriarch, if I have no children, it should naturally be taken over by the next generation of chiefs."
After Jiang Qinjin finished speaking, he saw that most of the people in the ancestral hall nodded in agreement, but the sixth uncle and grandfather who spoke before said with some reluctance: "Isn't the next generation of elders Qinyuan's son?" Isn't Min Xing planning to inherit his father's business? If so, how did he take over as patriarch? ”
If Min Wei heard this, if she couldn't hear that this sixth uncle and grandfather were taking the opportunity to find fault, then she would really be burned out of her brain, but speaking of which, no matter how much he found fault, he was just a few words in words, he was a concubine, even if the next patriarch was not his cousin Jiang Minxing, he was also one of his cousins, and he would not fall into the sixth room of the concubine.
Min Wei is very strange now, why did the sixth uncle and grandfather mention this matter at this time, is it just to vent for himself? Min Wei was still thinking about the intentions of this uncle and grandfather, when she heard Jiang Qinjin say lightly: "Even if Min Xing wants his son to inherit his father's business, then naturally there are still Min Si and Min Cong, and the sixth uncle really doesn't need to worry about these things early." ”
Hearing Jiang Qinjin's words, the sixth uncle and grandfather still refused to let go and said: "Speaking of which, Qinhan has never had a son-in-law, does he want to emulate the fifth brother and change his concubine to a concubine when he is old in the future?" Min Wei was stunned, why did this ring turn to her father all of a sudden, what did this sixth uncle and grandfather want to say?
"Sixth brother, what do you mean by this, don't forget that your fifth brother is still alive and sitting here." didn't wait for others to speak first, the only one sitting in the entire ancestral hall The fifth old lady spoke first, the fifth old lady Jiang Yiwu was also an official outside in his early years, and even the left deputy governor of the official to the third grade, and later told the old man to return to his hometown, not allergic Wei listened to Lan's mother said that the reason for the resignation of the fifth uncle and grandfather was actually to avoid the battle for imperial power.
"Sixth Uncle don't worry so much, if the fifth brother wants to change his concubine to his concubine, he will also have to discuss it in the clan, even if Min Rui can really change to his concubine, he will never become the next patriarch." When Min Wei heard this, she realized that the sixth uncle and grandfather were just worried that her half-brother would become the patriarch if he changed to a concubine in the future.
Min Wei couldn't help but want to hold her forehead and sigh, how long was this a matter of time, Min Wei always remembered that Lan's mother told her at that time how much work and how much time it took for the fifth uncle and grandfather to change his son to a concubine.
Jiang Qin saw that the relatives in the ancestral hall seemed to be a little shaken by the words of the sixth uncle, and discussed in a low voice, so he had to raise his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then said in a solemn tone: "Today, I, Jiang Qin, swear in the name of the patriarch that if the elder and the descendants of the clan are not competent, the patriarch will be selected by the clan, and the next patriarch of the Jiang clan will never be succeeded by Jiang Minrui." ”
After listening to Jiang Qinjin's words, the sixth uncle and grandfather just nodded, and dropped a sentence, "Since Qinjin has already said this, then I naturally have nothing to say" and then quieted down again, and everyone in the ancestral hall stopped talking about it when they saw this, but respected Jiang Qinjian's actions very much, as the patriarch, he should focus on the overall situation and the family.
Since the matter has been said, then everyone dispersed, and the seventh old lady waited until everyone left, and then said to Jiang Qinhan: "Today, you will kneel in this ancestral hall and ask for sin." After speaking, he caught up with the fifth old lady and Jiang Qinmian who had just left, and Jiang Qinyuan's brothers had to follow their father when they saw this.
The fifth old lady waited until his own brother and brother came over, and then the two of them supported each other and walked back, who knew that halfway to meet the sixth brother who had obviously waited for a while, Min Wei looked at the sixth uncle grandfather, and was a little curious about the reason why he was waiting here, the sixth uncle and grandfather walked over, bowed to the fifth old lady and said: "I'm sorry, don't be angry, sixth brother, I am just anxious, if there is something that offends you just now, you have a lot, don't let me be knowledgeable." ”
The fifth old lady glanced at his sixth brother twice, and saw that the expression on his face was very sincere, thinking that although his sixth brother was a concubine, he had always attached great importance to the clan rules, although he had just spoken a little calculating, but thinking that he was indeed sincerely planning for this family, not to mention that although he had been sick before, it didn't mean that he didn't know what the fifth nephew did, so for his sixth brother's words, he just nodded and said that he didn't care.
Min Wei was still thinking about how the sixth uncle and grandfather in the ancestral hall seemed to be a different person when they left the ancestral hall, but the sixth uncle and grandfather smiled and parted ways with everyone after seeing his brother-in-law and saying that he didn't mind.
