There was a moment of silence in the garden.

Several clan elders were all stunned.

First look at the head of the house, and then look at the others, you look at me, I look at you, looking at each other.

After a while, I heard the Ninth Elder ask with a slight hesitation, "Family Master...... It's about family affairs, not jade cards, why is this related to that Su Ting?"

The others all had a bad premonition in their hearts and looked at the head of the family one after another.

The old head of the Su family said in a deep voice: "You always say that Su Li is excellent, and Su Yue is extraordinary, but this Su Ting, in front of us, isn't it more leisurely and complacent, and his temperament is better? ”

At this point, his gaze swept over everyone, revealing an inquiry.

In fact, in his heart, he may not really want to let Su Ting do things.

It's just that for Su Li and Su Yue, he really doesn't know how to choose, but he doesn't want to be biased, in this situation, Su Ting, who behaved properly in front of him before, seems to be more agreeable.

"How can this work?"

Most of the clan elders shook their heads, and none of them agreed.

Although that business has long been done, everything that should be earned has been earned, and now it is only the end. But the end is not a trouble, but a good thing.

Go up and down and get to know the characters of all over the capital.

And during the closing period, more or less, you can also get some benefits.

In addition, in the eyes of several clan elders, this incident has another meaning, and it is not a trivial matter.

After all, the old head of the family is old, and the power is gradually decentralized, and the new generation of the head of the family will also have to be selected.

This time the selection of people to finish, although it is not a direct selection of the head of the family, but this time the end, whether it is interests or the contacts you know, are very important, it can be called an accumulation, and even what you get will be one of the foundations of becoming the head of the family in the future.

How can this allow an outsider to intervene?

"Although this matter is not serious, there are also people in the Su family who can stir up trouble, and if their own family does not choose, why should they choose him as an outsider?"

The Seventh Elder said angrily: "The head of the family will never treat him as his own, right?

The old man smiled and said, "What are you excited about? I just saw this young man, and he was very good, his bearing was not bad, his spirit was flying, he was quite confident, and he was not like a vulgar ...... I didn't identify him, I just felt that such a young man, I just wanted to give him a chance to test his ability and whether he could be of great use. ”

"What did he do in the school examination?"

The Seventh Elder said: "Although he is also surnamed Su, what is the difference between him and outsiders? He just has great ability, and we will not use him in the affairs of our clan." ”

The old man waved his hand and said, "Old Seven, we are not choosing the patriarch of the family, we are just choosing someone in charge...... If he really has the ability to pass this test, why not leave him?"

As he spoke, the old master looked at everyone and said, "You must remember, but it is not a bad thing to recruit talented people for the development of the family. ”

"Our chief steward is not from the Su clan. ”

"If you look at the big officials in the court, they are not all royal descendants, right?"

When the old family master said this, the rest of the clan elders were silent.

The Seventh Elder immediately said angrily: "What kind of crooked reasoning is this? In the eyes of the head of the family, how many descendants of our Su family are not as good as a foreign boy? The head of the family only looked at this young man once, so he valued him so much? How many years have the Su family cultivated these children of the clan, all of them have been regarded as what the head of the family regards?"

As he spoke, he stood up abruptly and said angrily, "Anyway, I don't agree. ”

After the words fell, he suddenly flicked his sleeves, turned and left.

"This old seven, still has this temper. ”

The old man shook his head slightly, feeling a little helpless.

The rest of the clan elders seemed to be thinking, but most of them agreed with Lao Qi's statement.

"Old Seven...... Reckless. ”

But what he said is not unreasonable. ”

"My family is enough, I don't have to use such a kid. ”

"Alright. ”

The old master waved his hand and said, "At this point, the seventh child has broken up unhappily, and this matter is not in a hurry, let's talk about it in the future." ”

As he spoke, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

There is no need to waver between Su Li and Su Yue, and be forced to make a decision by these old guys.

It's just that if you think about it carefully, the young man named Su Ting, who is confident in his speech alone, is indeed very good and is a suitable candidate.

"It's a pity that it's not the Su family's descendants after all. ”

......

The front yard is located.

The Seven Elders were furious, and along the way, they only looked at his gloomy face, and none of the subordinates who knew his temperament touched his brow.

But he hadn't gone far when he saw a young man in the corridor in front of him approach.

This young man is not an outsider, it is Su Li, who has just returned from the capital and sent some tea to the head of the family.

"Grandpa, why are you here?"

"Why can't I be here?" said the Seventh Elder angrily.

"Uh......" Su Li was speechless for a moment.

"But your grandson, carrying things, where are you going?"

"My grandson went looking for the guest from our house. ”

"What guest?"

"It seems to be ......" Su Li thought for a moment and said, "It's called Su Ting?"

"You bastard, what are you looking for him?" the Seventh Elder became more and more annoyed when he heard the name.

When the grandson came back, he saw a carriage in the stable, and the white horse pulling the cart was actually a treasure horse, and he loved it very much, and he could not bear to be reduced to a cart pulling tool, so he asked the next person, and found out the owner of the carriage. ”

Su Li smiled: "No, I brought a gift, and I was about to go to him, intercede with him, and give the white horse to my grandson." ”

The Seventh Elder said angrily: "You have a heart, and you also brought a gift? You gave tea to the head of the family before, why didn't you see you honoring me?"

Su Li was stunned, and said, "Grandpa, how is this talking?"

"How do you speak?"

The Seventh Elder pointed to the gift in his hand and scolded angrily: "That bastard boy you want to give a gift, all the gifts you gave to the head of the family have been in vain...... What kind of gifts did you kid give, why haven't they worked once?"

Su Li was scolded by him and was confused for a while.

The Seventh Elder was angry and said, "I just mentioned to you the benefits of closing the business in the capital in front of the head of the family, but when the head of the family saw Su Ting, he actually looked down on this bullshit relative of three or five hundred generations, and was ready to give him this benefit......

When Su Li heard this, he was taken aback and said, "How can this be done?"

This is not only about profits, but also about personal connections, which will be of great help to him in the future, how can it fall into the hands of others?

"Naturally, I almost turned my face with the head of the family. ”

"Grandpa, why are you so impulsive?" Su Li hurriedly said: "You have offended the head of the family, if his old man dislikes me in the future, won't I lack a chance of winning here?"

"The odds, the odds, the fart!" The Seventh Elder was furious, slapped the gift in his hand away, and said, "What kind of gift? Give a fart gift! Do you know that you and Su Yue combined, in the eyes of the head of the family, the weight of a single hair is not as heavy as a single hair...... Compared to others, you are a straw bag. ”

Su Li was slapped by him, stunned, his face was cloudy, and he became very ugly for a while.
