Chapter 32: The Head of the House
Jiang Chip originally wanted to retreat immediately, but at the request of everyone, he still chose to take care of his injuries first, and dealt with the affairs of the General's Mansion by the way.
But this is not a long-term solution. He can't deal with these trivial matters forever, and the Jiang family still needs a proper family master.
Before the retreat, Jiang Chip called all the Jiang family children of Jiang Aotian's generation over, preparing to re-elect the head of the family among this crowd.
From the day Jiang Zetian was forced to step down from the position of the family, everyone knew that a new head of the family would always be chosen. Some people with active minds have already begun to build prestige among the juniors, and by the way, attract more people to support them.
Jiang Chip saw all these things, but he did not stop them.
After everyone arrived, Jiang Chip went straight to the point.
"I invite you here today because the Jiang family needs a new family master. Who among you can afford this position? β
After a period of silence, the fourth elder of the Jiang family took the lead in standing up.
"Father, I am willing to take on the responsibility of the head of the family and lead the Jiang family to become stronger."
Jiang Chip nodded and asked in a deep voice, "Who else?" β
Naturally, the fourth child of the Jiang family is not the only one who has a lively mind, but it is not easy for them to stand up.
Looking at the silence for a long time, Jiang Chip thought carefully about the possibility of Jiang Laosi being the head of the family.
The fourth elder of the Jiang family is kind-hearted, and he is a person who cherishes talents, and he will never make a mistake like Jiang Zetian again. But the biggest weakness of this person is that he is indecisive and hesitant to deal with things, and often misses opportunities.
It's not suitable, it's still a little inappropriate, and you have to be the head of the house to be resolute.
Jiang Chip looked at Jiang Aotian who was standing aside, and it happened that Jiang Aotian was also looking up at him. The two glanced at each other, and Jiang Chip saw firmness and determination in his eyes.
He no longer hesitated, "I think Jiang Aotian is more suitable." He had been the head of the house before, and although he had made some small mistakes, the punishment was enough. What do you guys think? β
Everyone below looked at each other. Someone had the courage to stand up and say, "But as we all know, Jiang Aotian's skills have been abolished, and the Jiang family can't let a waste person be the head of the family." β
Without waiting for Jiang Chip to answer, Jiang Aotian said: "I am willing to compete with you, if I lose, I will not be contaminated with half a point of the position of the head of this family in this life." β
The man looked at Jiang Chip suspiciously, but saw that he nodded in agreement.
Jiang Luo'an had actually been staying not far from them. At this time, when he saw a team of people following Jiang Chip out, he couldn't help but get closer to observe.
Jiang Aotian and Fang just spoke, and the man found a vacant place nearby and started fighting. He took into account the friendship of his peers, was more cautious when he started, and showed him affection everywhere, but he still won easily.
Everyone finally saw Jiang Aotian's true strength, and they no longer dared to look down on him.
Jiang Aotian became the new head of the family, so it was so logically settled.
After becoming the head of the family, it is naturally impossible to still live in the original small courtyard. Under Jiang Chip's arrangement, Jiang Luoan moved with Jiang Aotian and lived in the courtyard of the head of the family.
Such a big thing as the change of the new head of the General's Mansion is naturally known all over the city. As Jiang Luoan's fiancΓ©, Su Chenyu justifiably brought a group of people over to congratulate his future father-in-law.
At this time, Jiang Luoan had just changed to a new place, and all the previous things had not been moved over, and at this time, the things that Su Chenyu had brought over had to be packed. Seeing the people coming in and out, there was a lot of noise, so Su Chenyu ordered He Luo to help them move their things and finish moving them quickly, so that the courtyard could be quiet.
As for himself, he went straight to the courtyard where Jiang Luoan lived now.
"I've brought new medicine here to help you check the wound." As soon as he entered the room and closed the door, Su Chenyu took off his disguise in front of outsiders. What is gentle and polite, what is a humble gentleman, all thrown aside.
"What medicine?" Jiang Luoan stepped forward curiously to take a look.
Su Chenyu took out a small round box from his sleeve. The box was only the size of a dragon's eye, but when it was opened, the fragrance of the ointment inside immediately filled the room.
"It smells so good." Jiang Luoan couldn't help but sigh.
Su Chenyu picked out a little ointment with a small silver spoon, "This is Yurong ointment, which can not only speed up wound healing, but also repair scars." He shook the medicine box, "Such a small box of ointment costs nearly a hundred taels of silver." β
Jiang Luoan glanced at him, "If it's too expensive, don't bring it." β
Su Chenyu didn't care, and took care of herself to apply medicine to her wound. The ointment melted with spiritual power can be better absorbed and speed up wound healing.
After taking the medicine, Jiang Luoan pulled on his clothes, but there seemed to be the touch of his fingertips on his back.
She couldn't help but be a little upset, "You don't come to me less in the future." My injuries are almost healed and I don't need to take my medication so often. β
She couldn't figure it out, it was obviously a relationship of mutual use, and none of them owed anyone, so why did Su Chenyu do this.
If she owes Su Chenyu a penny, she can't afford to pay it back.
It's a pity that Su Chenyu didn't understand what she meant, but smiled and said: "My father-in-law can come here if he wants, and the dowry has already been ordered, who can stop me?" Without talking about that, let me see your current cultivation first. β
Jiang Luoan stretched out his hand with kindness.
After taking the pulse, Su Chenyu nodded, "It's not bad, your progress is quite fast." β
Jiang Luoan looked at his face and suddenly remembered Luo Jiehao, who was still locked up in Su Chenyu's prison.
"By the way, Roger Hao is still with you, what did you do to him?"
Su Chenyu was a little dissatisfied with her distraction, but still replied, "It's still locked up there, waiting to see what you want to do with him." β
Jiang Luoan nodded, "At that time, the affairs of the Jiang family had not been dealt with, and I didn't have time to take care of him." Now it's also time to check him out. β
Su Chenyu asked, "What are your plans next?" β
Jiang Luoan turned his head with a smile and replied, "I want to use him to bring down the Luo family, what do you think?" β
Su Chenyu was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "I think it's good." β
After thinking for a while, he added, "As far as I know, the Luo family has a treasure trove, and almost all valuable treasures are placed in it. This treasure trove has always been in the hands of Roger Hao, but now that others are with me, I don't know what is going on. β
A treasure trove? The Naro family must have taken these very seriously. Su Chenyu's words provided Jiang Luoan with some ideas. Maybe she can start here.
"What do you do?" Jiang Luoan was pacing in the room, holding his chin and thinking carefully. Su Chenyu looked at her with a smile on his face.
"Yes, that's it." A plan suddenly came to mind, and Jiang Luoan snapped his fingers proudly.
