Chapter 217: The Cohenburg Conference
"Oh?" Rhine raised his eyelids and said, "Can those families still be afraid of our family's sanctions?"
"The Bit family and the Gaia family are probably not afraid, and the grandchildren of the other three families have done some understanding, and it is not impossible to move their pockets," Lin Ke suddenly laughed, "Grandpa is afraid that he will wait for my words!"
Rhine laughed and said, "Since I have such a promising grandson, I can naturally save some things, the Bit family doesn't need to say, as long as the old man is still there, a hawk like Rodriguez can't do things without scruples, this time he showed this when you saw you in the provincial capital, the patriarch of the Gaia family is also a safe, and there is no big problem to give face to each other." ”
Lin Ke nodded and said, "If others want to wrestle with us, they have to weigh their own catties, grandpa, is the name of Xincheng decided?"
Rhine glanced at him and said to Serena, "What if the new city was called 'Fort Korn'?"
Serena, who was looking at her son with a smile on her face, said in surprise, "How can it be done, he is just a third-generation child, even if he has some small achievements, he is definitely not qualified to be the name of the new city, father, you still want to think of another name, otherwise it would be good to call it Mutes City!"
"I think it's nice to call it 'Fort Korn,'" Muttered Linko, "New Town has a new name, and as long as I don't stop for a day, this 'Fort Korn' won't disappear from people's eyes, which is more beneficial to the family than any other name at the moment, and New Town is not yet perfect, and needs lasting attention from the people of the Windy City, and there is nothing more interesting than me now, Mom!"
"No!" Serena glared at Lin Ke fiercely and said to Rhine, "Father, the matter of Xincheng is very important, let's have an elder council to think about it in the long run, right?!"
"I think it's good, too," a smiling voice suddenly came from behind Linko, belonging to Randolph, "'Kornburg' is very good." ”
"Before, the old man was worried that this little guy didn't want his name to be engraved on the city gate to show off," followed by the third elder Rod who walked in from outside the courtyard, "Since he has no opinion, I don't think there is any need to drag this matter on any longer!"
"Third uncle, fourth uncle!" Serena exclaimed.
"It turns out that a few grandfathers have discussed it in advance, but I still think that I am the only one who thinks of this, and sure enough, Jiang is still old and spicy," Lin Ke suddenly pouted and sighed in great interest, causing several old people in the yard to laugh.
"Serena, it's not that I deliberately hide it from you, but this matter is just a preliminary conversation, mainly because I am afraid that this little guy will not agree to make an embarrassment," Second Elder Sandy and Fifth Elder Quincy including Seventh Elder Elleziqi walked in from outside the courtyard, Sandy continued, "Now that everyone wants to go together, let's formally discuss it!"
"This ......," Serena didn't insist too much, although she was still a little reluctant.
"In addition to the reasons Cohen just mentioned, using his name as a new city name can also boost the fighting spirit of the family," Rhine smiled, "We are all old, and the family needs a young man to stand at the forefront, since Cohen has the ability and the will, what we can do is to support him." ”
The old men nodded frequently.
Serena said with a look of hesitation, "But after all, he's just an ordinary third-generation child......
"Not soon," Sandy said with a smile and shaking his head, "In terms of the contribution that Lord Cohen has made to the family, being an elder is still qualified. ”
"Yes, that's a solid three-sided wall, Serena," the Third Elder Rod said with a smile.
Lin Ke pursed his lips without a trace, showing a cold attitude towards the so-called elder position that everyone said.
"How can it be?!He deserves to contribute as a member of the family, since he has this ability, there is absolutely no reason to exchange benefits, after all, the matter of the city wall is my mother's mouth, Cohen, what do you say?" Serena said to Lin Ke with a serious face.
Lin Ke immediately came to Serena's side and hugged her arm to flatter, "Cohen is 10,000 willing to share some things for his mother, how can he ask for any benefits? The family elders always have to take on a lot of obligations, and Cohen is still afraid that he can't bear it." ”
The old men were speechless.
At this time, your kid said that he was too young to take responsibility?!
"Cohen, don't be presumptuous," Fifth Elder Quincy said earnestly, "You are still young, but you don't have ambitions at an advanced age, you deserve the position of elder!"
"That is, Cohen, the position of the elder of this family is not only an obligation but also a power," Sandy said, "For example, if you have a fixed salary, you can also participate in some of the family's decisions, right?"
Serena was speechless.
Lin Ke pondered for a moment and said, "Grandfathers, I will accompany my mother to the drinking party of the seven major families, and I can also take on the position of elder, just ask everyone for one thing!"
The elders looked at each other, and then remembered the existence of the orphan organization "Wind Whisper", and there were some things that could not be hidden from this child.
Sandy asked suspiciously, "What did you say?"
"Every ten days, give my mother, Serena, a day of unconditional leave," Lin Ke said with a serious face.
Serena was stunned for a moment, then turned her head away and covered her mouth with her hand.
The old men were silent.
After a long time, Rhine sighed and said, "Serena, just do what Elder Cohen wants, every ten days, one day off unconditionally, I order you as the head of the family that you are not allowed to be busy with the family for this day, and now the situation of the family is very different," he slowly got up and bowed to Serena, "You have worked hard all these years......
The other five old men also got up and bent down.
Linko pursed his lips and got up to give Serena a deep salute.
To this woman who broke her heart for her family.
This venerable woman was his mother.
――――――――――――――――――――
After leaving the Rhine's yard, Serena held Linko's hand all the way, just as Cohen had done when he was a child.
"Actually, you shouldn't talk to your grandfathers like this, my mother has been busy for this family all these years, but also for your father and you, no one has ever been with me, it's just that sometimes I'm too busy to have time," Serena said to Lin Ke with a smile, her eyes still a little red.
"It's just a day off for you, don't worry too much," Lin Ke said indifferently, "When I was in the imperial capital, I saw the young lady of other people's family have a relaxed and happy life, my mother doesn't like those things I know, but rest is also very important, not to mention that you are not much worse than your father, but you have fallen too far over the years." ”
