Chapter 38: The Dressing Ceremony

For a moment, the three elders and Jiang Ming were like ducks whose necks had been choked, and suddenly there was no sound. The pen and the fun www.biquge.info just looked at the old and young people who walked into the council hall together. They broke their heads and couldn't understand, how could this great elder, who rarely participated in family affairs, walk with Jiang Hao, could it be a coincidence that they met on the road?

Ignoring everyone's gaze, Jiang Hao and the Great Elder walked to their seats and sat down, the Great Elder laughed and said, "Jiang Shan, you have given birth to a good son, Jiang Hao's baby is young, but he is well-mannered, knows how to respect the elders, and has a very good appetite for the old man." ”

The Great Elder's words immediately made Jiang Ming and the three elders feel as uncomfortable as if they had swallowed a fly. Just now, they were still accusing Jiang Hao of having no respect for the elders, but the great elder said that he was "well-mannered and respectful of the elders", how could this batch of fighting meetings continue.

You must know that although this Great Elder is often in retreat, he has rarely appeared in the past ten years. But his prestige in the Jiang family and Danfeng Town is unparalleled, although the three elders have fallen to the second room and one line, they do not dare to openly oppose the great elders.

Jiang Ming saw that the scene he had painstakingly created was easily resolved by the Great Elder's words, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, but he didn't dare to contradict the Great Elder, so he could only sit down stupidly.

At this time, if you want to say that the happiest person is Jiang Shan. Judging from the fact that Jiang Hao and the Great Elder came side by side, it was obvious that Jiang Hao had been recognized by the Great Elder. I saw him say with a red face: "Great Elder, don't praise him, this little rabbit cub is not a worry-free master, if you praise him like this, I'm afraid that his tail will be cocked to the sky." ”

"Haha!" The Great Elder smiled noncommittally, and then said with a straight face: "Jiang Shan, you insisted on dragging my old bones out of the scripture building, what happened?"

Jiang Shan stood up slowly, with a serious look on his face, his eyes swept around the people present, and said loudly: "Everyone, two months ago, Jiang Hao accidentally fell off the cliff, and we all thought that he had suffered an accident. Therefore, it was decided to set up another heir to the Jiang family, and now Jiang Hao has returned safely, so I think this matter should be canceled. But this matter is related to the election of the next head of my Jiang family, not my own private matter, and I, Jiang Shan, dare not decide on my own, so I convened a clan meeting to decide. ”

As soon as Jiang Shan's words fell, the second elder had already suddenly stood up and said, "I don't dare to agree with what the head of the family says. My Jiang family is the first family in Danfeng Town, how can I go back on my word. The head of the family has already written a handwritten post to the powerful forces in Danfeng Town, inviting them to come and watch the ceremony. How do we explain to them when we cancel at this time? ”

"What the second elder said is not unreasonable," Jiang Shan nodded, and then his tone changed, and said: "But the change of the heir's position originated from Hao'er's fall off the cliff, and now that Hao'er has returned safely, this matter should naturally be canceled." How can it be regarded as a reversal. As for the posts that were sent, as long as I personally wrote a letter of apology and sent it out, the matter would naturally be settled. The Second Elder need not worry. ”

"This ......" Jiang Shan's words were reasonable, and the second elder was speechless.

At this time, the third elder stood up and said with a smile: "For the sake of the Jiang family's reputation, the head of the family is willing to apologize to others in a low voice, and he is dedicated to the Jiang family, and the old man admires it." But the eldest young master, as a son of man, has caused his father to fall into such an embarrassing situation because of his own reasons, where is his filial piety, what do you say, eldest young master. ”

These three elders were sleek and knew that Jiang Shan was not easy to deal with, so they pointed all the fingers at Jiang Hao. According to Jiang Hao's past temperament, I am afraid that with just such a sentence, he will be speechless and automatically give up the position of heir.

It's a pity that Jiang Hao is no longer the former Ameng at this time, I saw him standing up, meeting the eyes of the three elders without fear, and said loudly: "Jiang Hao, as a son of man, is indeed unfilial to his father, but this is only a small unfilial piety. However, the position of heir is related to the family business that my Jiang family's ancestors have worked hard to inherit. If I make the position of heir fall into the hands of incompetent people for the sake of the filial piety of the son of man, and bury the inheritance of my ancestors, then I will become a sinner of the Jiang family, which is a great unfilial piety. Between the big and small trade-offs, Jiang Hao can still tell which is more important. ”

As soon as Jiang Hao's words came out, the audience was in an uproar, and no one thought that Jiang Hao, who was inferior and cowardly, timid and introverted before, would have such confidence and arrogance.

Jiang Kun's eyes showed a hint of coldness, and he suddenly stood up and said, "In this way, eldest brother, you are conceited that you are a wise and strong person, and you can lead the Jiang family to a stronger and more prosperous place?"

"Not bad!" Jiang Hao looked at Jiang Kun without fear and said proudly.

"Okay!" Jiang Kun nodded, bowed to Jiang Shan, and said, "Father, the eldest brother is ambitious, and the child is ashamed of himself, and he is willing to withdraw from the heir battle." ”

What the?

Everyone present was stunned, and looked at Jiang Kun in disbelief.

Jiang Shan was also slightly stunned, and said, "Do you really think so?"

Jiang Kun nodded vigorously, and continued: "But my father's post has already been sent, and it would be inappropriate to cancel the event after January." ”

Sure enough, there was something else. Jiang Hao smiled coldly in his heart and said, "Then I don't know what the third brother means?"

Jiang Kun smiled slightly and said, "According to the Jiang family's family rules, after the children of the Jiang family become adults, they need to change their clothes. The eldest brother has reached the age of sixteen and should have changed his clothes. The status of the eldest brother is noble, and the gift of changing clothes cannot be hasty. I think my father might as well just hold a dressing ceremony for his eldest brother after January, taking advantage of the gathering of all forces in Danfeng Town, so that my father does not need to apologize to them in a low voice. ”

The so-called changing clothes refers to the fact that after the children of the family become adults, they take off their short hexagram shirts and change into brocade robes, indicating that the person has reached adulthood. In order to promote the martial arts practice of the children of the clan, the Jiang family also added a special article to the dressing ceremony:

When changing, the children of the clan who have not changed their clothes can challenge the person who has changed clothes, and if the challenge is successful, or the person who has changed clothes does not dare to fight, the challenger can change clothes with them.

Jiang Kun suggested that Jiang Hao's dressing ceremony should be set after January, obviously to challenge Jiang Hao in front of everyone. At that time, Jiang Hao, as the heir of the head of the family, must not show the slightest cowardice in front of so many figures with heads and faces in Danfeng Town, and there is only one way to fight.

If Jiang Kun can defeat Jiang Hao in front of everyone, he can go with one of them to change his clothes, then Jiang Kun will become the only protagonist in this grand ceremony that seems to be prepared for Jiang Hao, and Jiang Hao has become his stepping stone.

At that time, even if Jiang Shan reluctantly helped Jiang Hao to take the position of heir, he would have already lost face.

None of the people present had a fuel-efficient lamp. Jiang Kun's thoughts, they can naturally see it. The three elders nodded in agreement, and the elders of the Jiang family were all powerhouses in the Jingyuan Realm, and their spiritual perception was abnormal.

The battle between Jiang Hao and Jiang Kun last night was so powerful that it was naturally impossible to hide from them.

Although the four elders were not present at the scene in person, a single spiritual idea was enough for them to perceive the battle situation at that time.

Although I was surprised by Jiang Hao's progress, Jiang Kun's strength was far above Jiang Hao after all, and Jiang Kun had the absolute upper hand in the end of that battle. And Jiang Kun has not fully revealed his final hole cards. So in their opinion, at the dressing ceremony after January, Jiang Kun should defeat Jiang Hao naturally, without the slightest problem.

"So that's the idea you played. Jiang Hao looked at Jiang Kun and smiled coldly, and said to Jiang Shan: "Father, the third brother's proposal is thoughtful, and he thinks about your face wholeheartedly, and the child agrees." ”

"Oh!" Jiang Shan was thinking in his heart about how to reject Jiang Kun's proposal without hurting Jiang Hao's dignity. But he never thought that Jiang Hao would take the initiative to agree, but when he saw Jiang Hao's confident gaze, an inexplicable trust suddenly rose in his heart, and then he slapped the table and said, "Then it was decided that after January, a dressing ceremony will be held." ”
