"When is the seal of the head of the Xiao family, uncle going to give it to me?"
As soon as this remark came out, Xiao Jin's already ugly face became even uglier. He stared at Xiao Suian for a few minutes, and then twitched the corners of his mouth, speaking with a bit of sarcasm and displeasure: "Sui'an, you are really in a hurry ah."
"I'm just complying with the request of several clan elders." Dang Xiao Suian nodded slightly, and replied quietly.
In a big family, the elders of each clan represent prestige, and it is especially important to get the support of the elders.This is why Xiao Suian took the initiative to win over these clan elders from the very beginning.
"Don't worry, the seal will be given to you."
Xiao Jin said almost gnashing his teeth, his eyes were full of jealousy towards Xiao Suian, and his fists were clenched.If possible, he wished someone could beat Xiao Suian on the spot.
Now that Xiao Jin has been pulled down from the position of patriarch, he only needs to make a handover with Xiao Suian, and the Patriarch of the Xiao family will be completely replaced by Sui'an in the future.
Everyone in the audience witnessed the process of changing the head of the family, and quickly forgot Xiao Jin, and started to congratulate Xiao Suian with a smile on their faces, and their words were flattering.
The corners of Xiao Jin's mouth drooped, almost all the veins on his neck could be seen.He glanced at the crowd, his eyes full of haze, and then he found an excuse and left the ancestral hall.
"Congratulations, Suian, for becoming the head of the family. I believe that under your leadership, the Xiao family will surely go to glory." One of the Xiao family members boasted with a smile.
"Suian, you look extraordinary at first glance, the position of Patriarch must belong to you."
Almost everyone was flattering Xiao Suian, but completely forgot how he had ridiculed and despised him.
Xiao Suian directly ignored the flattery of these people, with a calm expression, still taciturn.Seeing that Xiao Suian didn't respond, the others felt ashamed to brazenly continue to set up relationships, so they all left one after another.
With the departure of the crowd, the ancestral hall regained its silence.
Xiao Xiangdong and others were still sitting on the top of the ancestral hall, looked up at Xiao Suian, and nodded in satisfaction.
"Suian, let's congratulate you on becoming the Patriarch." Xiao Xiangdong said with other clan elders around him, all with smiles on their faces.
Xiao Suian nodded slightly, and said in a low voice, "Thank you to the clan elders for trusting me."
Xiao Xiangdong smiled kindly: "Look at what you said, you are so capable, if we don't trust you, who will we trust?"
"Suian, this is your first time as the head of the family, and I'm afraid you don't understand some rules, so let's explain it to you," another clan elder said. They looked at each other, and then continued, "Since you have become the head of the family now, we have to say something."
"Speaking of which, you have been married for more than three years now, but you still don't have a single heir. This is really worrying."
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Suian's pupils trembled slightly.
Another clan elder rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "You are a fool, you must have forgotten that Suian married a male daughter-in-law, how could you have children?"
"I forgot about that." Xiao Jingguo patted his head exaggeratedly, looked at Xiao Suian and smiled, "Speaking of which, when Xiao Jin wanted to find you a son-in-law, I just disagreed. Out of order."
Several other clan elders also responded one after another.
"That's right, how can you find a man as a wife? It's absolutely impossible!"
"It's fine in the past, but now that you've become the head of the family, it's best to marry a woman of the right family."
Xiao Jingguo nodded in approval, and looked at Xiao Suian with a serious face: "Sui'an, your current identity is different from before. Now that you are the head of the family, you are the face of the entire Xiao family. If you have a male wife by your side , it’s really a bit out of order.”
Xiao Suian's eyes flickered slightly, and he took into account the singing and harmony among these clan elders
"I don't know what it means to respect the elders of the country? I don't understand." Xiao Suian lowered his eyes and spoke with doubts.
"If you are really good for the Xiao family, you should break off the relationship with your husband and wife first." Xiao Jingguo didn't hear the coldness hidden deep in Xiao Suian's words, and only thought that the other party was asking seriously, "Then His name seems to be Chu Yan, right? He came from a small family, and he is not good enough for you in terms of status or gender."
The sarcasm and disdain in these words were obvious enough that a layer of ice-coldness appeared in Xiao Suian's eyes.
For these clan elders, the big family comes first, and the small family comes second.
If they sacrifice their own happiness for the prosperity of the whole family, they are probably willing to do so.
Otherwise, Xiao Suian would not have hurriedly elected Xiao Jin as soon as Xiao Suian's father passed away, but he did not pay any attention to Xiao Suian's feeling of losing his parents when he was only a teenager.
Xiao Suian had long seen the ruthlessness and indifference of the elders, so he used the support of these elders as a bargaining chip to deal with Xiao Jin.
It's just that this will threaten one's own bargaining chip, which is really not flattering.
Xiao Suian lowered his eyelashes, put on a docile look, and responded: "What does the clan elder mean by asking me to divorce Chu Yan?"
"It's natural."
"I'm afraid not." Xiao Suian raised his eyes slightly and shook his head calmly.
"Why not?" Xiao Jingguo frowned immediately, "Don't you want to?!"
The corners of Xiao Suian's mouth curled into a slight arc, he opened his lips slightly, and said in a low voice, "The point is not whether I want to, but whether those netizens who know my relationship with Chu Yan are willing or not."
"What does this have to do with those netizens?"
"The elders of the clan may not know that my relationship with Chu Yan has long been known by the whole network. If I choose to divorce Chu Yan because I became the head of the family, netizens may think that I am a scumbag, which will affect the Xiao family. Fame." Xiao Suian said flatly.
After all, Xiao Jingguo is an old man, and he doesn't know much about the situation on the Internet. He frowned and asked in disbelief: "How could you be so exaggerated?"
"Clan elder, you can go and find out what happened to Tang Jindong, the only son of the Tang family, on the Internet some time ago." Xiao Suian glanced at Xiao Jingguo, and directly used the ready-made example. ruined the reputation of the Tang family."
This remark successfully caused Xiao Jingguo to hesitate. He neither approved of Xiao Suian and Chu Yan continuing to be together, but also did not want to ruin the reputation of the Xiao family because of the divorce, so he really hesitated.
"I said you old things, Suan is married well, why do you let him divorce?" Xiao Xiangdong, who had been keeping quiet all the time, couldn't help but opened his mouth for a while, he glanced at the elders around him, Looking at Xiao Suian again, "Suian, don't take what they say to heart."
"Brother Xiang Dong, what do you mean by that? I'm doing it for the good of my family!" Xiao Jingguo was a little dissatisfied and asked Xiao Xiangdong.
"There's no need for Suian to divorce for the sake of the family." Xiao Xiangdong, who is more than ten years older than Xiao Jingguo, said earnestly, "The relationship between the two of them is very good, but you two are good, and you will break them up right away. Can Suan be willing?"
Xiao Xiangdong may be more open-minded about this aspect because he is old.In his opinion, as long as Xiao Suian can be the head of the family well, it doesn't matter whether the other party is male or female.
"But if Suian has no heirs, who should inherit the Xiao family in the future?" Xiao Jingguo shook his head to express his disapproval.
Xiao Xiangdong smiled kindly, and stroked his gray beard: "Sui'an is only [-] years old now, and he can still sit on the position of Patriarch for another few decades. It's too much for you to worry about decades later. It's early."
Xiao Xiangdong's reaction was beyond Xiao Suian's expectation. He glanced at Xiao Xiangdong and nodded respectfully in response.
"Suian, don't listen to their nonsense. Although the Xiao family is a big family that has been passed down for hundreds of years, the times are different now, and we can't rest on our laurels." Xiao Xiangdong looked at Xiao Suian, smiled kindly, "You just need to be the head of the family well, and then choose the right children in the future, and gradually train them to be successors."
Xiao Xiangdong's seniority is the oldest, and what he said was very firm. After hearing this, an elder who abides by the rules like Xiao Jingguo, even if he disagrees in his heart, he can only acquiesce.
"Thank you, Elder Xiangdong, for understanding."
"Okay, you must have your own affairs to arrange, so don't stay here too much, go back first." Xiao Xiangdong waved his hand and let Xiao Suian go back on his own.
Xiao Suian nodded, bowed his head to several clan elders, and then turned around and walked out of the ancestral hall.When he walked to the gate, he looked back at the elders of the clan, his eyes darkened.
If a family wants to prosper, the first thing that needs to be eliminated is the stubborn and corrupt existence.
His father had been constrained by the elders of the clan headed by Xiao Jingguo back then, and was controlled almost every step of the way. When he first became the head of the family, he basically had no freedom to decide things by himself.
Now, since he became the Patriarch, he naturally wants to change this situation.
In the villa, Chu Yan was already sitting in the living room waiting for Xiao Suian to come back.He vaguely knew some reasons why Xiao Suian went to Xiao's house suddenly today, probably related to Xiao Suian's arrangements these days.
When he heard a voice coming from the entrance, Chu Yan immediately put down the things in his hands, walked quickly to the entrance, put his arms around Xiao Suian's neck, and leaned on Xiao Suian's body and asked, "How is it?"
Xiao Suian handed the dessert bought for Chu Yan to the servant, then put his arms around Chu Yan's waist, kissed him on the lips, and said in a low voice: "Xiao Jin is not the owner of the house now."
"Oh?" Chu Yan caught a little smile in Xiao Suian's eyes, made a guess, raised his eyebrows, "Then who is the head of the Xiao family now?"
Xiao Suian lowered his eyebrows and looked at Chu Yan intently: "It's me."
"That's really gratifying."
Chu Yan withdrew his hand with a smile on his face, and applauded exaggeratedly.
