Guo Yongzhi snorted, stood up and said: "Second brother, you are now in charge of the overall situation, it is inconvenient to speak, and you have to say a fair word as a younger brother!" You are the highest-ranking of our brothers, except for the eldest brother; On weekdays, who has something to do with the big guys, or you help out? Everyone! I elect our second brother! ”

Guo Xinzhi said lightly sarcastically: "You say that, where do you put Minzhi?" Min Zhi and the second brother are both members of the three grades of the court, if you say so, I will recommend Min Zhi! ”

Guo Jingzhi sneered in his heart, but said modestly: "I'm optimistic about you, third brother." ”

The honest Guo Xinzhi waved his hand again and again, and politely declined: "No, no, my brother, I have never had a weak personality, and I have never thought of such a thing. ”

"Sir!" When Xia heard him say this, she was so angry that she pinched him hard with the help of her wide sleeves!

Guo Rui's family is small, and he only has one hobby on weekdays, knowing that the position of patriarch is hopeless, and he doesn't like Guo Jingzhi very much, so he can't help but watch a good show at the moment. After everyone finished speaking, he saw that Guo Jingzhi's face was wrong, so he shouted blindly: "I think the third brother is good, the fourth brother is good, in short, I want to choose one!" ”

"That's right, the position of patriarch can't just look at the rank, the key is to look at the ability to do things for people, right?" Guo Mianzhi, who had never spoken, opened his mouth and said, "I think the fourth brother is very good." ”

Guo Jingzhi originally thought that he was the second in line, and if something happened to his eldest brother, he should be the patriarch, but who would have thought that everyone would not follow common sense at this moment!

At this moment, he saw that the focus of everyone's argument was on Guo Xinzhi and Guo Minzhi, and his face was very unsightly, so he coughed unnaturally, as if reminding everyone of his save!

Guo Yongzhi seemed to get some kind of hint, walked to the middle of the crowd, and said again: "The second brother is of high grade and good morality, and now he has a bright future in the court, and he will definitely be able to shade our Guo family in the future!" Besides, he is the younger brother of the eldest brother, isn't it enough to be the patriarch of this district? ”

Guo Jingzhi waved his hand again and again and modestly excused himself: "No, no, my brother is kind!" It's better to let the third brother and the fourth brother come! ”

Guo Xinzhi snorted coldly, glanced at Guo Jingzhi, and said lightly: "I don't object to what you said about the second brother's high grade and steady progress. It's just, hum, you said that the second brother has other ・・・・・・ I don't agree with this! ”

Guo Jingzhi's wife, Qi Shi, pointed her throat and accused: "Are you saying that our master's virtue is at a loss?" Third brother, third brother, the master treats you well, why do you bother to beat you like this! ”

Guo Xinzhi looked to the side coldly and did not answer.

Guo Ruizhi's eyes froze, and then he said: "In my opinion, the second brother can't say anything, we must always respect his wishes!"

When Guo Jingzhi heard this, his face was even more ugly!

He stood up, pointed at Guo Xinzhi and asked, "The third brother said that I have a loss in virtue, may I ask where I am at a loss!" ”

Xia Shi pulled Guo Xinzhi's sleeve and motioned him to stop talking! But Guo Xinzhi did not show weakness, and retorted sonorously: "As a minister, you are loyal to the Son of Heaven and serve your parents!" As the saying goes, the eldest brother is like a father, since the eldest brother is seriously ill, how many times have you visited? ”

Guo Jingzhi's throat choked, but immediately retorted: "The eldest brother has committed something upward, and he is already a criminal minister; I'm in a high position, and I definitely have to set an example and draw a line with my big brother! But at the risk of being deposed, I personally visited me twice, and gave me many excellent mountain supplements, and you said that I was unfaithful and unfilial? It's a ridiculous joke! ”

Guo Xinzhi sneered: "You confuse the court and family affairs, you don't distinguish between right and wrong, and reverse black and white, it's really a big joke in the world!" ”

Guo Jingzhi also sneered: "Based on this alone, why can't I, Guo, be the patriarch?" ”

Guo Xinzhi continued: "Let's talk about the eldest brother's children, those are your in-laws' sons and nephews!" Why don't you help them and leave them to their own devices? ”

Guo Jingyi couldn't think of words to answer, and then Qi had an idea and said, "Who said we didn't help!" Yesterday, the lord was discussing with me, and in a few days he will send a few maids and servants to the eldest brother's mansion, and he plans to invite a gentleman for Yue'er! ”

Guo Xinzhi had nothing to say, but he still sneered.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I'm not going!" Guo Yue opened his mouth coldly and rejected Qi's family.

"You kid・・・・・・" Qi and Guo Jia's three sisters and brothers were not close to each other, and they wanted to coax him at the moment, but they opened their mouths and still didn't say anything, mainly because they were embarrassed to say anything!

Guo Yongzhi saw the stitches and said: "So let's say! What's more, the second brother is ranked after the eldest brother, even if it is arranged according to the order, it should be the second brother who will serve as the patriarch, what do you have any opinions? ”

At this time, Guo Jinzhi, who had been silent, spoke.

Although Guo Jinzhi often haunts the court, his position is low, and he usually doesn't talk much, and Guo Jingzhi doesn't pay much attention to him. However, Guo Jinzhi is diligent and hardworking, although he can't get into the eyes of the saint, he is very appreciated by the prince.

Guo Jingzhi threw him a warning look and asked abruptly, "What else do you have to say?" ”

Guo Jinzhi pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "According to the younger brother, the second brother has a lot of things to do on weekdays, you are dealing with national affairs in the court, and when you come home, you have to deal with these trivial things in the clan, but I am afraid that the second brother has limited energy and can't cope with it!" For the sake of the second brother, the younger brother thinks that it is more appropriate for the fourth brother to take the position of patriarch! ”

Guo Ruizhi catered and said: "Yes, the fourth brother is also good. ”

Guo Jingzhi scolded: "Ruizhi shut up! ”

Guo Ruizhi smiled and really shut up.

Guo Jingzhi looked at Guo Minzhi who didn't speak with displeasure, "What does the fourth brother say?" ”

Guo Minzhi said humbly: "The fourth brother listens to everyone. ”

Is this what you're going to do against yourself? How unreasonable! Guo Jingzhi was angry, but he couldn't come out! After calming down for a while, he said: "Since there is a stalemate, let the brothers present vote." Whoever chooses me to be the patriarch of the clan should stand on the left; If you choose the fourth brother, please stand on the right! As soon as the words fell, Guo Xinzhi went to the right without hesitation.

Guo Jingzhi and Guo Minzhi stood on both sides, like two different camps.

Guo Yongzhi saw that Guo Mianzhi hesitated and did not move, and made a gesture to the right, so he attached it to his ear and didn't know what to say; Guo Mianzhi's expression moved, and he frowned tightly and let Guo Yongzhi pull him to the left.

Guo Jinzhi thought for a moment and decisively walked to the right.

Guo Ruizhi stood in the center, as if an old monk was in a state of mind, and he didn't move.

Guo Xinzhi wanted to call him, but was stopped by Guo Minzhi.

And Guo Yongzhi shouted at him very anxiously: "Ruizhi, you are here!" ”

Guo Ruizhi's original position was not firm, and he originally wanted to go to the right, but Guo Yongzhi's call pulled him back to reality: he thought of Guo Jingzhi's means, if he really chose Guo Minzhi, with his means, he didn't know how many stumbling blocks he would put on himself!

Thinking of this, although Guo Ruizhi was unwilling, he still chose Guo Jingzhi.

Guo Jingzhi finally breathed a sigh of relief. He announced: "Now that the big thing has been decided, I, Guo Jingzhi, will be the next clan ・・・・・・."

"Wait!"

Guo Min shouted loudly and interrupted Guo Jingzhi's words.

Guo Jingzhi was very proud and disdainful. "Fourth brother, do you have anything else to say?"

Guo Minzhi carefully took out the things in his arms, "I have the previous patriarch, that is, the eldest brother Guo Wangzhi, to recommend the book to my patriarch!" ”

When everyone heard this, they were shocked! Especially Guo Jingzhi, he gritted his teeth and glanced at Guo Jia, only to see her whispering and laughing with Guo Yingyue lightly, as if she had nothing to do with her!

Guo Wangzhi, Guo Wangzhi! I'm your brother! But no matter how much I begged you, you didn't look at me much, and now you hit me in the face!

Guo Wangzhi, Guo Wangzhi! You've made me miserable!
