Chapter 914: The position of the head of the family

Mrs. Eight opened her eyes wide, her face was weird, she raised her eyebrows, looked at Jia Le tentatively, and said, "What you said makes sense. ”

Seeing that the momentum was right, Jia Le hurriedly said: "Third aunt, as long as you can get the third uncle back, after the matter is completed, no one will dare to compete with you for the position of the head of the family!" ”

Mrs. Eight rolled her eyes, turned her head to look at Jia Le, her eyes were full of strange light, and she reached out to stroke the broken hair in her ears, as if she had become the wife of the head of the family, with a smug look on her face.

Jia Le's eyes widened, flashing with bright light, looking at Mrs. Eight, her voice was gloomy, and she pretended to be mysterious: "Have you thought about it?" ”

Mrs. Eighth came back to her senses, cleared her throat, pretended to be nothing, and said, "Since the Xia family can't do without Dongchu, I'll let him come back." ”

"Yes, yes, you've finally figured it out!" Jia Le nodded again and again, bowed slightly, squinted his eyes, smirked, and couldn't wait to say: "The golden nest and the silver nest are not as good as your own kennel." What the third uncle has done is a big thing, a big thing that is conducive to the revitalization of the Xia family, and he must not wander outside and endure hardships! ”

Mrs. Eight pursed her lips, her eyes squinted, and she smiled maliciously and said, "You are still interesting!" ”

Jia Le lowered his head slightly, touched the back of his head, looked embarrassed, and said in a squeaky voice: "I am not the material of the head of the family at all, and I am not qualified to compete with the third uncle!" Don't worry, as long as the third uncle comes back, as soon as the matter is completed, I will definitely leave the Xia family immediately! ”

"I'll trust you for the first time!" Mrs. Eight held her chest up, her head held high, and she looked arrogant, and said: "If you dare to play any tricks, don't blame me for being an aunt!" ”

Jia Le's eyes were affirmative, his face was calm, he nodded vigorously, and said, "I know!" ”

"I'll call Dongchu right now." Mrs. Eight was in a good mood, with a joyful expression on her face, and walked to the phone with a scream.

Suddenly, Jia Le took a step forward, grabbed Mrs. Eight's wrist, and said with a hesitant expression: "Third Aunt, you must not tell Third Uncle SΓΉ that it was my idea!" ”

"Why can't you say that?" Mrs. Eight tilted her head, looked sideways slightly, frowned, and looked at Jia Le with a puzzled expression.

"You think, if the third uncle or others knew that it was my idea, I would definitely not believe it, and it might cause unnecessary misunderstandings." Jia Le's eyes were deep, his expression was solemn, and his voice was a little nervous: "I don't care, poor boy!" But if it ruins the good deeds of the third uncle, wouldn't it be a big loss! ”

Mrs. Eight's eyes rolled slightly, she pursed her lips, thought for a moment, and said, "What you said has some truth. ”

After speaking, Mrs. Eight picked up the phone, dialed it, and said with an eager face: "Hey, dear Dongchu! ”

Jia Le, who was standing on the side, really couldn't stand the tone and evil posture of Mrs. Eight's speech, narrowed his eyes slightly, and turned away.

A few minutes later, Mrs. Eight hung up the phone, walked to Jia Le's side with a whimsical gesture, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, showed a smug smile, and said, "It's done!" Dongchu said that he would be back early tomorrow morning! ”

"I won't disturb your rest!" Jia Le nodded slightly, raised his legs and ran, and fled from Mrs. Eight's room like a wild.

As soon as Jia Le returned to the room, he turned around and gasped, his eyes were shocked, his chest rose and fell violently, he looked at the woman on the chair in a daze, and said in a slur voice: "Auntie, why are you here?" ”

Long Azi's face was gloomy, his eyes were ugly, and he said, "What's the matter with you?" I heard that you went to find Li Fengjiao? ”

Long Azi has always maintained an elegant posture, rarely angry, and when he saw Jia Le, he didn't say a word, got up and slapped him, and said, "Are you sure you want to give up the position of the head of the family and transfer it to Xia Dongchu?" ”

Jia Le's face was hot, and he wiped it off with his hands disappreciatively, his head lowered slightly, and his eyes said stubbornly: "I have my thoughts, please don't interfere!" ”

"You don't want me to interfere?" Long Azi frowned, his voice was eager, especially a pair of eyes, sometimes wide, sometimes slightly narrowed, his eyes were red, accompanied by a moist feeling, and said: "You obviously know that there is a problem with the whereabouts of that fund, how can you still let him return to the Xia family and take over the position of the head of the Xia family?" Do you know that the Xia family is your father's life's work, and it must not fall into the hands of others? ”

Jia Le frowned, his face was distorted, his hands were clenched into fists, he tried his best to hide the grievances and pain in his heart, and said: "What I have decided will never change!" It's not early, go back and rest! ”

Jia Le understands Long Azi's inner suffering, and knows the importance of the position of the head of the Xia family, but Long Azi's sudden slap made Jia Le's little fire of hope and trust in Long Azi finally burn away.

Long Ah Ziqing was excited, his body trembled, he held on to the table, and cautiously walked to Jia Le's side, opening his mouth slightly, looking like he wanted to speak and stopped.

"You don't have to tell me anything!" Jia Le turned around, turned his direction, and turned his back to Long Azi, looking completely lost and angry.

"You've let me down!" Long Azi shook his head, his face was gloomy, his eyes were full of despair, and he muttered to himself: "I originally thought that you would be the hope of the Xia family, and I was also very happy about your growth, but I never thought that you would choose to retreat in the face of difficulties!" ”

Jia Le's brows furrowed tighter and tighter, his heart fell into entanglement, and he couldn't help but tell Long Azi the truth several times, but every time the words came to his mouth, he swallowed it back.

He clearly knew that Long Azi had dedicated his whole life to the Xia family and had suffered too much grievances and pain.

Since he has decided to support the Xia family, he must definitely ensure Long Azi's safety and make her less afraid.

"Say no more!" Jia Le's face turned sideways, and he said in a cold tone: "You go back and rest." ”

Early the next morning, Jia Le got up early and came to the door of Xia's house, just in time to see Xia Dongchu carrying a simple duffel bag and walking towards him.

He opened his eyes wide, adjusted his breathing, and looked around vigilantly, trying to find clues about Xu Bo.

"What are you doing standing at the doordoor suspiciously?" Xia Dongchu was as arrogant as ever, his eyes glanced at Jia Le with contempt, and he strode in proudly.

Jia Le took a deep breath, followed behind Xia Dongchu, and walked straight into the ancestral hall of the Xia family's compound.

When the elders heard that Xia Dongchu was coming back, they waited in the ancestral hall early, and when they saw Xia Dongchu, the bearded elder raised his eyebrows and glared, shouted, and said, "Kneel!" ”

Xia Dongchu's eyes were stubborn, his eyes widened, he "poofed", knelt on the ground, and said unwillingly: "I can kneel, but I will never admit that I made a mistake!" ”

The bearded elder held the ring ruler in his hand, staggered to Xia Dongchu, and said sharply: "You loser, you still have the face to come back!" ”

"I didn't do anything wrong, why can't I come back?" Xia Dongchu straightened his upper body, his face was solemn, and he said stubbornly: "Everything I do is to revitalize the Xia family and expand the Xia family!" ”

"Humph"! The bearded elder snorted coldly, his face was ugly, and said, "Tell me, what did you do when you swept away all the assets of the Xia family?" ”

Xia Dongchu took a deep breath, cleared his throat, and said the trade agreement between himself and Xu Bo truthfully with a proud face, and said excitedly: "After the matter is completed, the Xia family will become the richest man in this area!" When the time comes, I don't know how many merchants will come to climb the dragon and the phoenix with us! ”

The bearded elder stroked his beard, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked thoughtful, and said, "How sure is your success in this matter?" ”

"More than ninety percent!" Xia Dongchu's eyes widened, and he said matter-of-factly: "Wu Jingyu is my savior, and he will definitely not harm me!" ”

The bearded elder pouted in deep thought.

There is a rule in the Xia family that women are not allowed to enter the ancestral hall, Long Azi and Mrs. Eight stood outside anxiously, feeling uneasy in their hearts.

"A woman will always be a woman, she can't enter the ancestral hall, it's better to keep to herself!" Mrs. Eight swayed her waist, squinted her eyes, glanced at Long Azi, and said in a weird manner: "Look at you, you have been a woman all your life, and there is no man, why do you still occupy the position of the head of the family and not let go?" ”

Long Azi's face was expressionless, pretending to be indifferent, his face was worried, his eyes stared straight at the ancestral hall, and said, "Don't be too happy!" ”

When Jia Le heard the noise outside, he couldn't help frowning, and glanced at Long Azi with some concern.

Long Azi has endured too much humiliation and forbearance for the position of the head of the family, and once he loses it, he will definitely have a nervous breakdown.

There was silence in the ancestral hall, and everyone's eyes were focused on the bearded elder, holding his breath and concentrating, silent.

Surprisingly, the bearded elder set his eyes on Jia Le, his eyes were a little hesitant, and he pretended to be calm and said, "Jia Le, what do you think of this matter?" ”

Jia Le was slightly stunned, he had never been truly accepted by the Xia family, and he didn't have any right to speak, and he was suddenly called like this by the elders, and he felt a little flattered, and he couldn't say anything for a long time.

"Elder, why are you asking for the opinion of such a wild species?" Xia Dongchu's face was surprised, frowned, turned his head to look at Jia Le, pursed the corners of his mouth, and looked resentful.

"Ahem!" Jia Le cleared his throat, slowed down his speech, glanced back at Long Azi, and said, "I think that Xia Dongchu should temporarily take over the position of the head of the Xia family!" ”

"No!" Long Azi changed his previous calm state, his expression was anxious, and he was more angry, and said hysterically: "The Xia family was laid down by Jia Le's father, and it can't be handed over to anyone except Jia Le!" ”

Mrs. Eight's eyes squinted, the corners of her mouth twitched, revealing a sly smile, raising her hand to ruffle her hair, looking like a villain.

"Come on, take these two women away!" The bearded elder stared at him, his face was displeased, and he said, "The provincial one has disturbed the cultivation of the ancestral hall. ”

Long Azi stared at Jia Le with a pair of eyes, staring straight at Jia Le, as if telling about his hardships and dedication over the years.

Jia Le's chest rose and fell, his heart was worried, he shook his lips, his expression was really painful, and he said secretly: "Auntie, I'm sorry!" Please bear with me for a moment. ”

Xia Dongchu squinted his eyes, looked at Jia Le, and said with a disdainful expression: "Stinky boy, the position of the head of the family should have been mine, you should have gotten out of here!" ”

Jia Le frowned slightly, his expression was solemn, his eyes showed a fierce light, he glared at Xia Dongchu fiercely, turned to look at the bearded elder, and said, "Elder, I can give up the position of the head of the family, but there is one condition!" ”

The bearded elder looked puzzled, looked at Jia Le inexplicably, and said, "What do you want to say?" ”

"The reason why I gave up the position of head of the family is for the sake of the Xia family." Jia Le took a deep breath, put on a straight face, and said matter-of-factly: "Before the results come out, I want to stay in the Xia family!" ”
