Midsummer, Guicheng.

Today is the day when the Qu family is going to announce the deputy head of the family, and all the people in the Qu family have returned to the big mansion in Guicheng. Although it is clear to anyone with a discerning eye that the position of the deputy head of the Qu family is either the eldest son or the eldest grandson, everyone still has to cooperate with the basic transition.

The position of the deputy head of the family is not big, but as long as you sit on it, you have a high chance of becoming the future head of the family.

At this moment, Qu Mingyuan, the ninth generation head of the Qu family, was sitting in the lobby, playing Go with his eldest son, Qu Weiqi.

The other ladies of the Qu family sat in the courtyard, talking about all kinds of gossip news that they got out of nowhere.

And Qu Xiaoyu, the eldest grandson of the Qu family, was standing at the door of the house with his mobile phone at the moment, looking around. Not far away, a Volkswagen drove over and slowly stopped in front of the house.

The car turned off, the doors opened, and a tall girl in a leather skirt wearing sunglasses stepped down on a pair of high heels. When Qu Xiaoyu saw the girl, there was finally a happy look on her face. He waved at the girl, "Hey, I'm here." ”

The girl is Qu Xiaotang, the eldest granddaughter of the Qu family, the oldest of this generation of grandchildren, who is twenty years old this year and a sophomore at Guicheng University.

Qu Xiaotang looked at his younger brother Qu Xiaoyu, who was only one year younger than him, and suddenly felt a lot warmer in his heart. She stepped on her high heels and walked towards Qu Xiaoyu step by step.

"Everyone is almost there, just waiting for you to come back. I said Qu Xiaotang, you just went to the school to get a certificate, is it necessary for so long? Qu Xiaoyu held the mobile phone, and Qu Xiaotang was dissatisfied.

Qu Xiaotang took off his sunglasses and hung them next to his shirt: "How many times have I said that I am an older sister born to one of your parents, can you be a little polite?" Qu Xiaotang Qu Xiaotang shouted all day long, people who don't know still think you are my brother! ”

"Aren't you a year older than me, what's there to do? Besides, I have been shouting the name Qu Xiaotang for 19 years, and it has become a habit. Qu Xiaoyu explained.

"It turns out that you are so powerful, I don't know that when you babble, you can clearly bite out the three words Qu Xiaotang?" Qu Xiaotang glanced at Qu Xiaoyu disdainfully and came to the courtyard.

As soon as the girls in the courtyard saw Qu Xiaotang coming, they all stood up one after another, and said with respect to her: "Eldest sister, you are back." ”

Qu Xiaotang nodded and asked, "Where are grandpa and my dad?" ”

"The head of the family and the eldest brother are playing chess inside, so it's not good for us to go in and disturb." The one who spoke was his uncle's wife Li Zi, who had just come over from the kitchen and happened to bump into Qu Xiaotang.

Qu Xiaotang was at ease, turned his head to look at Qu Xiaoyu, and walked straight into the lobby.

"Xiaotang, are you back?" Qu Yuqi watched his daughter walk in, and quickly put down the chess pieces in his hand.

"Grandpa, father." Qu Xiaotang said respectfully to the two.

The Qu family is a family with a long cultural history, and the children and grandchildren of the family are people who pay great attention to etiquette. Except for the head of the family himself, everyone else must be called the head of the family, and cannot be replaced by father or grandfather.

But Qu Youqi, Qu Xiaotang and Qu Xiaoyu have this special case.

This is also the reason why the rest of the Qu family does not like them.

But the basic rules still have to be followed, which Qu Xiaotang knew when he was very young.
