Chapter 68: The Cui Family Conference

No one spoke for a while, and the people of the Cui family all stepped back, and Du Dalei said with a hippie smile: "What a bunch of waste!" None of them were a little daring. No wonder the Cui family, the gate valve that has been inherited for thousands of years, was almost wiped out in a few decades, and it turned out to be a wreck! A group of guys who can't do anything but open their mouths fled to Jiangnan like lost dogs. ”

The people of the Cui family were enraged, and some people shouted and cursed. Zhao Zizhong shouted: "Da Lei is back, don't talk nonsense with them." ”

Zhao Zizhong pulled out the knife inserted on the table and stared at Cui Daoshi with a sharp gaze, "Do you still want to have a meeting?" If we don't start again, we'll be gone, and the longhouse will leave the meeting. ”

Cui Daoshi smiled, "Mr. Zhao, don't be impatient, I believe in you, but the rest of the Cui family has never been in contact with you, you have to explain a few words, right?" Don't draw your knife at every turn, it's not good to hurt your harmony. ”

At this time, a group of people rushed in from outside, and it was several people from the Cui family with their own guards, about a dozen. Under the instructions of the Cui family, the guards rushed towards the three brothers.

Zhao Zizhong turned around and shouted: "Beat them all down, Lao Tzu is going to have a good time today!" With that, he was the first to rush forward, flying up, and a knee hit, right on the chest of one of the guards. The guard staggered back a few steps, bringing down the three companions who were rushing forward.

Boris and Du Dalei also rushed over, and the three brothers fought like tigers entering a flock of sheep, and more than a dozen guards in each room of the Cui family couldn't resist it at all and fled in all directions.

Boris and Du Dalei were brutally beaten by An Dalang every day on the island for the past two months, and their martial arts improved very quickly, and now they can easily beat five or six ordinary people at a time, plus Zhao Zizhong, who was born as a scout, the three of them chased more than a dozen people and beat them, and soon the lobby was lying down, and the sound was endless.

Cui Daoshi hurriedly walked over, stopped in front of Zhao Zizhong, and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Zhao, why is this so!" Let's all stop, do you have something to say? ”

Zhao Zizhong said disapprerovingly: "I want to speak well, but some people are just cheap, and they have to beat them up to be honest." Okay, I'll give you face, you can talk. ”

Some of the Cui family's servants came in and carried the wounded guards out. In the lobby, everyone in the Cui family looked at each other, and there was a cold scene for a while. Cui Mingxun saw that everyone was not coming out, so he stood up, looked at Zhao Zizhong and said politely: "Mr. Zhao, what happened just now is a misunderstanding, don't mind." ”

Zhao Zizhong shook his head, "I don't mind at all, beating people is a very enjoyable thing, you can just say anything directly, everyone's time is precious." ”

Cui Mingxun was choked by Zhao Zizhong's words, and his face turned blue and red for a while. He thought for a moment and said in as calm a tone as possible: "Mr. Zhao, the head of the family is the person in charge of our Cui family, and it is normal for everyone to care about his safety. Since last night, the long room has been heavily guarded, and no one in the Cui family can see the head of the house, so everyone has questions. ”

He looked around at the reaction of the Cui family, and then continued: "Several of you are all fresh faces, and it is normal for the people of the Cui family to suspect that you want to murder the head of the family and do some radical things. Please Mr. Zhao explain clearly! ”

The people of the Cui family made a noise, and everyone quarreled and shouted together, putting pressure on Zhao Zizhong and the others. At this time, several people appeared at the gate, and two women walked in front.

Cui Daoshu's wife, Shen, held Cui Xiaoniang's hand and slowly walked towards the middle of the lobby. Cui Daoshi greeted him and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, why are you here?" Big brother is good? Did something happen? ”

Shen's face was a little haggard, she gave a blessing and said to everyone in the Cui family: "Elders, my husband suddenly fell ill yesterday, and now he is still unconscious, so he can't come to preside over the meeting, please forgive all uncles and brothers." ”

Everyone in the Cui family began to talk about it,

"What is the illness of the head of the family?"

"Does it matter?"

"Have you asked a famous doctor for treatment?"

In the lobby, it was like a frying pot, and people from all rooms of the Cui family gathered together in twos and threes, talking about Cui Dao's illness.

Cui Mingde, the person in charge of the second room of the Cui family, walked to the middle of the lobby and shouted, "Be quiet, don't talk." Listen to me, everybody! ”

He shouted several times in a row, and the hall gradually fell silent. Cui Mingde glanced at everyone and said loudly: "I have a proposal, in view of the fact that Cui Daoshu is now seriously ill and cannot take on the responsibility of the head of the family, I suggest that he be removed from the position of head of the family, and everyone should choose a more suitable person to come out and preside over this meeting." ”

Many people in the Cui family echoed it, saying that they supported Cui Mingde's proposal. The stewards of the long house stood up and argued with reason, arguing with the people in the Cui family's rooms.

Zhao Zizhong and Shen exchanged a few glances, knowing that the drama was finally coming. He decided not to come out and was ready to wait and see.

Cui Mingde walked up to several elders and asked for their opinions. A thin old man said: "I think it is feasible to remove Cui Daoshu, he had a serious illness a few years ago, and this time he fainted again, which means that he does have a physical problem, and he should take off the responsibility of the head of the family and recuperate." ”

Several old men echoed the voice, and they all said that Cui Daoshu should abdicate. Uncle Jiu, who seemed to be dying at any time, coughed and said intermittently: "Cough, cough---- explain that this child has done well over the years, cough ---- cough----。 It's a pity that the body is too weak, hey----, what a jealous talent! Cough, cough, cough ----"

Cui Mingde walked to the middle of the hall and said loudly: "It seems that the elders have reached an agreement, and Cui Daoshu is not suitable to continue to be the head of the family." Everyone said, who can take over the position of head of the family? ”

A young man stood up and shouted, "Uncle Mingde, I think you're suitable." ”

Someone at the bottom chimed in, "Yes, I think so." ”

"That's right, I support Uncle Mingde."

Cui Mingde's face was pale, brushing his beard, he glanced at the lobby, and suddenly saw Cui Daoshi's face. There was a hint of mockery on his face, and he looked at Cui Mingde with a smile.

Cui Mingde's mood was very bad, and he thought to himself, if Lao Tzu didn't have a handle in the hands of your third room, he would definitely fight for the position of the head of the family. He thought for a moment and said, "Thanks to everyone's admiration, I am ashamed that I think I am not talented enough to be the head of the family. I nominate someone, and he must be more suitable than me! ”

"Oh, Uncle Mingde, you don't want to do it?"

"Who else is more suitable?"

"You can't let Uncle Nine do it, right?"

Du Dalei laughed out loud, thinking, the Cui family also has a comic!

Cui Mingde looked righteous and awe-inspiring, "I recommend Cui Mingxun, he has both ability and political integrity, and he is the best candidate for the head of the family." ”

Cui Mingxun stood up, and Tuan Tuan arched his hand and said: "I am only shallow in my studies, and I dare not be the head of the family, please choose another smart person." ”

Cui Mingde stepped forward and grabbed his arm, "Mingxun, everyone knows your ability very well, if you hadn't been out in business for a few years, how could the position of the head of the family fall into Cui Daoshu's hands." Now that you take over, no one will make irresponsible remarks. ”

At this time, Uncle Jiu stood up tremblingly, and walked to the middle of the lobby with the support of the juniors, he coughed a few times, "I support Mingxun, cough, cough----- Mingxun is the head of the family." ”

Five or six elders of the Cui family also spoke out in support of Cui Mingxun. The crowd began to discuss, and for a while, there was a commotion in the hall, and some people were arguing.

Cui Xiaoniang was angry and said to Shen: "How can they be like this! Before my brother recovered, they wanted to replace him, but it was really ruthless! How much benefit they have gained from their brother over the years, but as soon as something happens to their brother, these people can't wait to jump out, I think they want to take over the things in our long house! ”

Shen patted his sister's hand and said softly: "Don't be impatient, let them be proud for a while, let's watch." ”

Cui Xiaoniang pouted, looking at those people who usually come to please her, but now they are arrogant. Du Dalei came over with a smile, "Sister, you don't have to be angry, everything is under control." There will be a big scene in a while, you can watch patiently! ”

At this time, Cui Mingde shouted loudly: "Everyone be quiet! Don't even talk! He shouted several times in a row, and the lobby slowly fell silent.

Cui Mingde looked at everyone and said righteously: "My second room resolutely supports Cui Mingxun to take over as the head of the family, I believe that he will lead the Cui family to become more prosperous, and everyone will get more benefits!" ”

"Our five rooms also support Cui Mingxun."

"Sifang also agreed."

Cui Daoshi saw that the overall situation had been decided, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. But when he saw the Shen family, Zhao Zizhong and the others didn't care about it, he was a little uncertain in his heart, it was difficult for them to have any back? No, Cui Daoshu's life is hanging by a thread now, Changfang is now powerless to return to the sky, relying on a few outsiders, what big waves can be turned over!

Cui Mingxun's face was a little frightened, "Thanks to everyone's love, Mingxun is not talented, and he doesn't dare to take on this important responsibility, so you should choose another master!" ”

The surrounding people began to make noise, and they all tried to persuade Cui Mingxun to let him take over as the head of the family immediately.

An elder took Cui Mingxun's hand and persuaded him in a serious voice: "Mingxun! You have to focus on the overall situation, now that Dao Shu has a sudden illness, the Cui family has no leader, and most of the shopkeepers and stewards of shops from all over the country have come. Many things have to be discussed to come to a conclusion, if no one is in charge of the overall situation, the Cui family will be in chaos, and the loss must be great! You just come out for a while, and if you are well, you can return the position to him, and then it won't hurt the harmony. ”

Many people also persuaded Cui Mingxun, and in the end, Cui Mingxun was almost dizzy when everyone said it, and in desperation, he nodded and agreed to take over as the head of the family temporarily.

He walked up to the Shen family, with a smile on his face, and said in a sincere tone: "Virtuous nephew and daughter-in-law, you have also seen it, I was also forced to be helpless, temporarily take on this burden, please forgive me from the people in your long room." If the illness described in the Tao is cured, I will abdicate immediately, and I will definitely not fall in love! ”
