Chapter 4104: Change of Identity
The news that Xue Yaoyue had returned reached everyone's ears, and at this time, the Jiang family held a parliament.
As the organizer of the parliament, Jiang Zhen suddenly became the person they all denounced from the position of leader, which made Jiang Zhen's situation very delicate.
Some time ago, the old lady of the Jiang family announced an important thing. The selection of the next heir of the Jiang family would be announced in front of several important people of the Jiang family.
This is indeed a big deal for the Jiang family. You must know that it has been more than 40 years since the old lady became the head of the Jiang family. In these 40 years, no one dared to bring up the topic of choosing the head of the family in front of the old lady.
Of course, the more important point is that these people think they are not qualified. In order to stabilize the turmoil of the Jiang family, the old lady personally solved her brother, which made all the Jiang family members admire her character and courage.
She is the head of the Jiang family, and the whole Jiang family has no objection, but this time the Jiang family is going to change the head of the family, and many people are paying attention to this matter.
There are many outstanding young people in the family. They thought that when choosing the head of the family this time, they could show their abilities well so that the old lady would entrust them with important tasks.
Unfortunately, everyone's idea was wrong. They thought that the position of the head of the family this time would be chosen among the young people. Unfortunately, the old lady revealed the answer with just one sentence.
The head of the family was chosen by her. If anyone dared to object, it would be to give her face as an old lady. Don't blame the old lady for turning her face and not recognizing people.
So Jiang Zhen directly became the new head of the family from an inconspicuous position in the Jiang family. Many people felt a little confused as to why the old lady did this.
There are many outstanding young people, but Jiang Zhen was chosen. It's not that Jiang Zhen is bad, but because Jiang Zhen is tepid and his presence in the Jiang family is extremely weak on weekdays.
It seems that few people have cared about his existence, but this time the old lady directly decided that he would sit in this position. Although no one said anything against it, they were discussing it privately.
Jiang Zhen convened a meeting to discuss some family affairs of the Jiang family and the matter of Xue Yaoyue, which directly pointed the spearhead of the crowd at him. Now Jiang Zhen is not the head of the family. He has to wait for the celebration to start and sit on the position of the head of the family to exercise the rights of the head of the family.
"Jiang Zhen, do you really think you are the head of the family? Although the old lady chose you, don't forget that you haven't passed the last level yet. If you don't pass this level, you will still be the same as before."
"No matter what, you should first solve your own family affairs. If your daughter hadn't regretted the marriage, our relationship with the Xiao family would not have become like this. You should take responsibility for this matter."
"For such a mistake, according to the rules of the Jiang family, you need to face the wall and reflect on your mistakes."
Everyone said here, it sounds like the punishment of facing the wall seems very simple, but the criminal law here in the Jiang family is the most serious.
Facing the wall and reflecting on your mistakes is specifically for women in the family who have made mistakes. Whoever makes a mistake will be locked in a cave for three years and six months, and is not allowed to go out during this period.
If you go out without permission, you will be sentenced to an additional year of imprisonment. The same goes for those disobedient clansmen. Normal people need to go out and be locked up in a place the size of a room for such a long time.
What is the difference between being in prison in the outside world? After hearing these words, Jiang Zhen sneered and turned around to glance at everyone.
At this moment, a fierce murderous aura burst out from him, which had never been there before. It seemed that at this moment, the familiar Jiang Zhen in front of him was no longer the weak appearance before.
Jiang Zhen has been doing one thing all these years, and his position has never been transferred. It seems that his ability is just average, but if you look closely, you will find the mystery here.
After doing one thing for more than 20 years, Jiang Zhen has never made a mistake, not even a small mistake. He has a calm attitude towards life and work, and never likes to fight, but it does not mean that he is really easy to bully.
"Have you guys finished talking?"
Jiang Zhen was chosen by his grandmother to be the next head of the family, so he naturally has his own strengths.
"I didn't say anything. I don't know what happened when Jiang Ying came back. You guys said a lot here. Do you think you are good at talking?"
Several people sat here without saying a word. They understood one thing. It turned out that cats can also be angry, and when cats are angry, they turn into tigers in an instant.
"I thought you were all reasonable people. I asked you to discuss the affairs of the Jiang family. I hope you can come up with some ideas, but all you think about is how to target me and how to pull me down from this position."
Jiang Zhen had already seen through the purpose of these people, and grandma had said before that it was not easy to sit firmly in this position.
No one opposed the old lady being the head of the family, and no one would say no, but when this position was passed to him, some people would soon jump out, and those who seemed very loyal on weekdays would become tricky in their words.
She was used to all this. She warned Jiang Zhen that if he wanted to make his life easier in the future, he should find a way to deal with these old stubborn people first. Otherwise, his ability would be limited to this.
Although the old lady was a woman, she was very clear about what she did. She was not like Xiao Huaili, who cleared all the roads for the inheritance of future generations.
The many problems she left behind were not because she disliked trouble, but a test for Jiang Zhen. Only after going through these could he become a qualified heir.
"You are all blaming me for my faults. Just touch your chest and ask yourself, when the Xiao clan proposed the marriage, you were also present. Why didn't you say a word and don't contribute your daughter!"
Jiang Zhen mentioned an old story. When Xiao Huaili of the Xiao clan came to the Jiang family, in order to consolidate the relationship between the two families, he proposed a marriage.
At that time, in addition to Jiang Zhen himself, many other people were present. The word "marriage" made them choose to remain silent and pretend to talk about things without any intention of talking.
Everyone knew that Xiao Huaili was the patriarch of the Xiao clan, and they also understood that if they married with such a person, their status in the Jiang family would also be improved, but no one was willing to do so. They understood one thing.
