Chapter 261: A new patriarch takes office

Although Qiao Ruowei came with the determination that she had to get the position of the new patriarch for Qi Ming, when what she wanted in her heart was really realized, she still had an incredible feeling.

"Patriarch, are you really not thinking about it anymore?"

"What to consider? Isn't that why you've been here to take care of me these days? How? Now I agree too quickly, afraid that I will suddenly regret it? ”

Qiao Ruoyu hurriedly shook her head, "Of course not, I just think it's too incredible, and it's a little difficult to accept for a while." ”

"Don't worry, after a few days when my cultivation is better, a family meeting will be held, and when the time comes, I will directly announce at the meeting that the new patriarch will be taken over by Qi Ming, and I will not regret it."

"Thank you, Patriarch," Qiao Ruoyu smiled sweetly at the Patriarch, "Then I will take care of you during the few days you are hospitalized until you are well and discharged from the hospital." ”

The patriarch's expression couldn't help but be a little moved, "I promised you that you would give Qi Ming the position of the new patriarch, and you are still willing to stay here and take care of me?" ”

"Of course," Qiao Ruoyu nodded firmly, "It has nothing to do with whether the patriarch agrees to me or not, I am a doctor myself, and the patriarch is now my patient, and I can't see the patient's healthy discharge, how can I leave early?" ”

"I really didn't misunderstand you, after Qi Ming took office, you will support me, and I can rest assured." The patriarch lay back and closed his eyes.

"In fact, it's not just the relationship between the doctor and the patient, in the past few days, I have long regarded the patriarch as a relative, of course I have to stay here to take care of the patriarch, besides, doesn't the patriarch want me and Changsheng to stay here with you?"

There was a coquettish tone in Qiao Ruowei's words, but she really looked like a daughter who took care of her old father, and the patriarch couldn't help but show a relieved smile on his face.

In the next few days, Qiao Ruoyu almost never left the hospital, but at night she would send Changsheng home to sleep.

In fact, the patriarch's illness Qiao Ruoyu is already very clear in her heart, although the patriarch said that he will hold a family meeting when he is well, but Qiao Ruoyu understands that the patriarch's illness is a long-term accumulated illness, which cannot be completely cured.

Fortunately, Qiao Ruoyu specially prepared the prescription for the past few days according to the patriarch's condition, so the patriarch's complexion has recovered quite well in the past few days.

Qi Ming also called Qiao Ruoyu to inquire about the situation in the past few days, but Qiao Ruoyu did not tell him the patriarch's decision, but only said that there was still hope and there was still something to wait.

She was afraid that Qi Ming would be too ostentatious after knowing about this matter, and would make the patriarch change his decision, so she decided to hide this matter from him for the time being.

Xuan Xue was still reluctant after leaving the patriarch's ward that day, and he would come to the hospital almost every day in the past few days, but the patriarch either avoided it or did it perfunctory, and he had already shown a little disgust with Xuan Xue.

Almost a week later, the patriarch decided to leave the hospital for a family meeting, and the new patriarch could no longer be delayed.

Qi Mucheng had no intention of participating in this election, but due to the development of the family, he couldn't just hand over a big family to Qi Ming, so he had already decided to strive for the position of the new patriarch this time.

Although Qi Mucheng made up his mind in his heart, he didn't know what Xuan Xue was doing these days, he thought that Xuan Xue would stop for some time after the last incident, but he didn't expect-

The family meeting was held at eight o'clock in the evening.

Because this meeting was organized by the old patriarch, he didn't want the atmosphere of this meeting to be too serious, so he set it up in the form of a family banquet.

Everyone present, except for the old patriarch, no one knew who the new patriarch was this time, and even Qi Long was now kept in the dark.

The patriarch was pushed by Qiao Ruowei in a wheelchair, originally this was a family meeting of the Qi family, and it was inconvenient for Qiao Ruowei to attend, but the patriarch insisted that she attend, and Qiao Ruowei had no choice but to agree.

Qi Ming saw Qiao Ruoyu and the patriarch come out together, and a trace of surprise flashed across his face, but it was replaced by joy in an instant.

The patriarch is willing to let Qiao Ruoyu come out with him, does it mean that Qiao Ruoyu has succeeded in this matter?

The family meeting soon took place.

The patriarch was still a little coughing at first, but Qiao Ruoyu brought a bowl of oral medicine to the patriarch and fed it to the patriarch before she felt a little better.

The patriarch beckoned to Qi Long and signaled for him to officially begin the meeting.

"Good evening everyone, I think everyone knows why they are here this time, although we voted at the last family meeting, but the final patriarch position is still decided by the old patriarch, everyone has no opinion on this, right?"

The people below sat quietly, and no one made a sound.

Qi Long nodded, and then said, "That's good, since everyone has no opinions, then the old patriarch will announce the final candidate." ”

Qi Long glanced at the old patriarch, the old patriarch nodded, and then said slowly: "I'm glad that you can take the time to attend this family meeting, I feel sorry for delaying the selection of the new patriarch because of my ill health some time ago." ”

The patriarch looked at Qiao Ruowen, Qiao Ruoyu immediately came over and helped the patriarch up, the patriarch bowed deeply to the bottom, and everyone below immediately stood up.

The patriarch has taken care of the affairs of the clan over the years and has a high prestige, so these juniors here naturally can't afford the patriarch's big gift, so they stand up and return the salute.

They didn't dare to sit down until the patriarch sat down.

"However, in the past few days that I have been hospitalized, I have also thought about it a lot and thought about it for a long time, and finally decided on the new patriarch."

When the patriarch said this, Qi Ming couldn't help but rub his hands secretly, he was very nervous, afraid that the patriarch would not say his own name.

Qi Mucheng was also nervous, but he only frowned slightly, he believed that the old patriarch would definitely make the right decision.

"The new patriarch is

- Qi Ming! ”

After hearing his name, Qi Ming secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that Qiao Ruoyu really didn't lie to herself.

Qi Ming couldn't help but feel a little more fond of Qiao Ruowei in his heart, and at the same time, his previous worries had long since disappeared, and his mind was now full of the fact that he had become the new patriarch of the Qi family.

After Qi Ming's name came out, the people below were in an uproar, some were proud, and some sighed.

Naturally, the proudest ones are the party that supports Qi Ming, and the ones who sigh are those who were bought by Xuan Xue to support Qi Mucheng before.

After Qi Mucheng heard Qi Ming's name, he couldn't help frowning.

Unexpected yet expected.

"Choosing Qi Ming as the new patriarch is a decision I made after weighing it, if you think there is anything wrong, you can bring it up today, if not, we can dismiss the meeting after this dinner."

The people below all looked at each other, but none of them dared to speak up.

"In that case, I will arrange a handover ceremony for the patriarch as soon as possible, and invite everyone to come and witness it then."

After the patriarch finished speaking, he asked Qiao Ruoyu to push him out, and after tossing so much tonight, the patriarch's complexion was much weaker, and Qiao Ruoyu had to send the patriarch back to the hospital.

The subsequent meeting completely became Qi Ming's home field.

The new patriarch has been announced, and Qi Ming's identity is beyond doubt, and now everyone is waiting to pat himself on the back, and the audience is full of congratulations and congratulations.

Qi Long left early, he was a little dissatisfied with the patriarch's decision, he thought that the patriarch would hand over the position of the new patriarch to Qi Mucheng, but he didn't expect it to be Qi Ming in the end, he didn't have a good impression of Qi Ming, so he naturally refused to stay here and say something against his will.

Qi Mucheng also left early.

Qi Ming drank a little too much at the venue, and when he got home, he felt that even his footsteps were floating, Qiao Ruoyu did not stay in the hospital today, but went home to wait for Qi Ming.

As soon as Qi Ming walked into the house and saw Qiao Ruowei sitting in the living room, his smile was about to overflow.

"Ruoyu, are you back, have you eaten? If you don't eat it, I'll ask my aunt to make some for you. ”

Qi Ming's attitude towards Qiao Ruoyu was also extremely good, and as soon as she entered the house, she sat next to Qiao Ruoyu and asked for warmth.

"No, I'm not hungry." Qiao Ruowei smiled and shook her head.

Qi Ming held Qiao Ruowei's hand, and the words he said were full of wine: "Thanks to you this time, I can get the position of patriarch, Ruowen, I really like you more and more, you say, how can you be so attractive?" ”

Qi Ming's eyes were gradually a little confused, Qiao Ruowei was a little flustered, and hurriedly pulled out her hand and said, "You are too drunk, I'll go make you a glass of honey water to wake up the bar." ”

Qi Ming was in a good mood today, and he didn't take Qiao Ruoyu's resistance to heart.

Qi Mucheng's house.

Xuan Xue has also been waiting for Qi Mucheng in the living room for a long time.

Hearing the movement coming from the door, Xuan Xue couldn't wait to run to the door, and when she saw that the person who came back was Qi Mucheng, she hurriedly asked, "How is it?" Did the patriarch announce it? Who is the new patriarch? ”

Qi Mucheng was a little upset tonight, and being asked by Xuan Xue couldn't help but increase the irritability in his heart.

"Qi Ming."

Qi Mucheng didn't want to say a word to Xuan Xue.

"How could it be him?" Xuan Xue looked puzzled, and said hatefully: "I still go to the hospital every day to take care of the patriarch, but he finally chose Qi Ming, is it really sick and confused?" ”

"What?"

Qi Mucheng was about to go up the stairs to go back to the room, but after hearing Xuan Xue's words, he immediately turned his head, "You said that you go to the hospital every day to take care of the old patriarch?" ”

"Yes, yes." Xuan Xue was frightened by Qi Mucheng's expression and nodded blankly.

Qi Mucheng smiled bitterly, "Originally, I didn't understand, but now I finally know why the patriarch chose Qi Ming instead of me," he glanced at Xuan Xue, shook his head and said, "Okay, this is probably the will of heaven." ”
