Dong Qian was surprised: "Xiaohua, you are going to continue the hydrangea!"

Hei Qiu'er scolded: "What are you doing with hydrangeas!

Hua Wenxiang said nervously: "I didn't want to pick it up, it was this hydrangea that flew by itself." ”

He gradually realized the seriousness of 事 (qíng), and now he was in trouble, and he caught the hydrangea, and it stands to reason that he would marry East and Northwest as his wife, if he didn't marry, his friend would be embarrassed, and if he married, he would be embarrassed...... Impossible, in this life, it is enough to have Yuelian alone.

Yuan Shulang asked, "Have you taken a fancy to the northwest?"

The East and Northwest are similar in age to Hua Wenxiang, and both of them are relatively good people, and each other's admiration is also in the process.

Hua Wenxiang hurriedly clarified: "No, this hydrangea flew over by itself, I just subconsciously picked up ......"

He was incoherent, then looked at the east and northwest on the balcony in the distance, and the latter blushed and smiled slightly.

The men who responded to the call but didn't grab the hydrangea all looked at Hua Wenxiang with unkind eyes.

Dong Qian whispered: "Xiaohua, you seem to have been targeted." ”

The flowers are warm and fragrant, and they eat Coptis chinensis, and they can't say the bitterness.

A boy shouted: "This person is outside the field, even if he receives a hydrangea, he should not count." ”

Another noble son chimed in: "That's right, I think Miss Dongfang should throw a hydrangea." ”

On the platform, Dongfang Tan Yi said: "Everyone, I'm sorry, my family has a fancy for this son, and that is this son, and the hydrangea will not be thrown again." ”

In North Chongcheng, the Dongfang family is not worried about offending anyone.

The nobles downstairs all had black faces, but they couldn't do anything, and some people waved their sleeves away unwillingly after taking a look at the east and northwest.

Although they also have a big family, they can't compete with the Oriental family after all.

Hua Wenxiang became the person in the limelight for a while, and she was the lucky one who was the envy of all men.

A moment later, he was asked to get into the sedan chair by the two maids of the Dongfang Mansion, and the poor young man explained to the two maids for a long time, but he didn't explain anything.

Yuan Shulang said in his heart: "Xiaohua, you go to Dongfang Mansion in a sedan chair first, and wait and see what you said yesterday, you can't slap the northwest in front of so many people." ”

Hua Wenxiang thought about it as well, so she could only not (qíng) be willing to get on the sedan chair.

Dong Qian said: "Let's go to Dongfang Mansion together." ”

Although the black ball on her shoulder is also eye-catching, it is not as warm as the fragrance of flowers.

Black Ball muttered in a low voice, "Then let's go quickly." ”

It can't let Hua Wenxiang live in Beichongcheng, and he said that he would travel to the rivers and lakes, and he would go to the forest with Yuelian and them in the future, how could he live in Beichongcheng like this.

In fact, under the subconscious of the black fat cat, Hua Wenxiang and Tu Yuelian are a pair.

The two of them and a cat followed the sedan chair to the Oriental Mansion.

On the platform, Dongfang, Northwest and others disappeared from everyone's field of vision.

Immediately afterwards, the fence of the venue was removed, and the people who watched the hydrangea beckoning all entered the sky tower.

Today's (rì) Sky Tower is free for all, just to celebrate the selection of the husband by the "second young master" of the Oriental family.

Oriental House.

The four servants carried the exquisite sedan chair into the house, and the flowers in the sedan chair opened the curtains, and there was always an indescribable awkwardness.

Last time in Yanluo Village, he seemed to have made a sedan chair disguised as a man, but this time he was selected to be his husband......

In front of a hall, the four servants put down their sedan chairs and departed.

A housekeeper personally lifted the curtain and motioned for the son-in-law of Dongfang Mansion to get out of the sedan chair.

Hua Wenxiang smiled slightly, didn't say anything, and only followed the old butler to the hall, and then found a chair to sit down.

He felt that Dongfang Northwest was not admiring himself, because he had not felt the slightest intention at all in the past few months, and getting along with each other was just the meaning of friends, and the reason why the other party threw the hydrangea to him was to let him help her.

As for what it was, Hua Wenxiang couldn't guess it.

Of course, this is just a guess from beginning to end, what if people really like him......

Outside the house, two people and a cat followed, but when they entered the house, they were stopped by the servants of the housekeeper, and then Dongfang Northwest and others also returned to the house, and saw the two people and a cat who were turned away, and Dongfang Northwest invited them to enter the house together, saying that these people are her very good friends, and one of them is still her master, not an outsider.

Without waiting for Dongfang Tan Yi to speak, a group of Dongfang Gu Huai let the servants go in as a few people.

In fact, there is a big matter to discuss in the Dongfang family, and outsiders should not be allowed to enter the mansion, but Dongfang Gu Huai is quick and seems to have a resolute attitude, so Dongfang Tan Yi didn't say anything.

Yuan Shulang said to Dongfang Northwest in his heart: "If there is anything you need help with in a while, just talk to the teacher." ”

The East and the Northwest are no longer reckless, and they snorted.

After everyone entered the mansion, in less than a cup of tea, more than 30 members of the Dongfang family came one after another, and in addition, there were people who kept rushing to the Dongfang Mansion.

In the spacious hall, Hua Wenxiang inexplicably blended into the deliberations of the Dongfang family, and the other two people and a cat were squeezed at the door.

Dongfang Northwest in red is a woman, and she should not have participated in the proceedings, but with the permission of Dongfang Guhuai, she and Hua Wenxiang can both observe, and the same is true of the two people and a cat outside the door.

Hua Wenxiang sat next to each other with Dongfang and Northwest, and the latter apologized in his heart: "I'm sorry, I was forced to do this, but don't worry, when I finish dealing with family affairs, I will let you go, and the matter of throwing hydrangeas and choosing a husband is just a cover." ”

Hua Wenxiang breathed a sigh of relief, "If you need help in a moment, just ask." ”

Sure enough, it was as expected.

An old man took the lead and said, "Northwest is actually a daughter (shēn), you are really good enough to hide it." ”

Dongfang Gu Huai smiled: "This matter (qíng) is no longer important, let's elect the head of the family next." ”

The old man snorted coldly, "Then hurry up." ”

He was very dissatisfied with the practice of the previous few (rì) Dongfang Guhuai, this person was neither big nor small, and he was angry with the elders of the clan, not to mention, and asked someone to throw him outside the house, which was really rebellious.

Dongfang Tan Yi instructed the housekeeper to bring pen and ink, and then said: "Each person has a piece of rice paper, only one name is written, and the one with more tickets will serve as the head of the clan." ”

No one disputes this.

The housekeeper brought a large stack of rice paper, then tore it into small sheets, one for each person, and then lined up to write names on the rice paper with a pen.

About half an hour later, everyone had written their names on rice paper.

A total of 64 sheets of rice paper.

The butler began to read the names on the rice paper, and then two servants stood aside, one counting and one checking.

In the end, the votes were counted, Dongfang Tan Yi had forty-nine votes, Dongfang Gu Huai had seven votes, and the remaining votes were almost all from some self-voted people.

The results of the vote were expected and unexpected.

Dongfang Tan Yi has too many votes, and Dongfang Guhuai has too few votes.

It stands to reason that the number of votes for the two should be about the same.

The East and Northwest were a little surprised, the three uncles' votes shouldn't be so few, could it be that the rude behavior of the first few (rì) offended everyone?

The room was silent for a while.

Dongfang Tan Yi's face was calm, as if he was not surprised by the number of votes, "Everyone, since it is everyone's opinion, then this head of the family will be done by me, Dongfang Tan Yi." It's just that I'm too old to be the head of the family, so I decided to hand over the position of head of the family to Gu Huai. ”

As soon as these words came out, someone immediately said: "I don't agree, the head of the family is voted on, how can it be handed over to others." ”

At first, the old man also said: "Yes, Tan Yi, if you really hand over the position of head of the family to Gu Huai, then what is the point of our vote this time?"

"I don't care about others, anyway, I don't recognize Dongfang Guhuai as the head of the family. ”

"Since everyone said before that they voted for the head of the family, then respect the result, since it is Tan Yi and you have the most votes, then you will be the head of the family. Why, just because Dongfang Gu Huai is your own brother, you can give him the position of the head of the family at will?"

"Brother Tan Yi is so unfair, since you don't want to be the head of the family, you should say it in advance, why do you still have the idea of transferring it to others?"

"Tan Yi, you can't convince the public like this. ”

......

In the hall, there was a lot of noise for a while.

Yuan Shulang and the others were fine outside, but poor Hua Wenxiang was sitting in the room alone, and he couldn't interject a word, so he sat on the chair so stupidly.

He is now the son-in-law of the Dongfang family, but he has no sense of existence.

Dongfang Gu Huai saw that everyone was so unkind to see him, and he was not angry, so he just smiled helplessly.

Dongfang Tan Yi's face was full of helplessness, and he looked at his younger brother, who smiled and said, "Since everyone unanimously elected the eldest brother as the head of the family, I don't have any opinion." ”

An old man said: "Since Gu Huai has no opinion, then the head of the Dongfang family will be the head of the family from now on (rì), and Tan Yi will be the head." ”

Dongfang Tan Yi always felt that something was wrong, in his understanding, Dongfang Guhuai couldn't be so easy to speak.

The two brothers were very close, and Dongfang Gu Huai motioned to his eldest brother to lean his ear over, saying that he had something (qíng) to talk to him.

Dongfang Tan Yi didn't know what to do, but he still leaned his ear over.

Everyone didn't understand what the two brothers were going to do, and they were all a little puzzled.

The East and the West are tense.

Dongfang Yue didn't know why, he always had a bad premonition.

Two middle-aged people, siblings with the same blood, were next to each other.

Dongfang Gu Huai said in a low voice: "Big brother, go die!"

As he spoke, he took out a sharp knife from his sleeve and stabbed Dongfang Tan Yi in the stomach.

Everyone was shocked.

Blood flowed from the corners of Dongfang Tan Yi's mouth, and his eyes were full of incomprehension and anger, "What are you doing?!"

Dongfang Yue hurriedly stepped forward to support his father and said loudly, "Third uncle, are you crazy?"

The east, northwest, and table (qíng) are sad, but there are no actions or words.

Dongfang Gu Huai's hand with the knife was stained with Dongfang Tan Yi's blood.

Dongfang Yue hurriedly called someone to invite the doctor, and then helped Dongfang Tan Yi to the chair and sat down, "Dad, you insist for a while, the doctor will come immediately." ”

Dongfang Tan Yi obviously had a lot of blood in his abdomen, but his face was not a trace of paleness, but he was as pale as usual.

"Rebel, what are you doing!"

"That's your own big brother, how can you do it!"

"For the sake of the position of the head of the family, as for the next killing! Not to mention that you yourself just said that you would not be the head of the family. ”

......

The hall was full of reproaches.

Dongfang Gu Huai threw away the knife in his hand and said loudly: "Shut up for me!"
