The abandoned wife of the noble family, she is Black Heart Lotus

The scene was silent for a moment, and suddenly an elder of the Gu family became furious and said.

"I object. How can a woman be the head of the family? Jiang Huai, don't come up with random ideas. Everyone knows that you don't have a son. You can choose any nephew or nephew as your heir, but you can't let a girl become the head of the family... …”

"Yes, Jiang Huai, this is against the laws of our ancestors. It took a lot of effort for our Gu family to get to where we are today. You can't ruin your family's feng shui..."

"That's right, after a girl marries, she becomes someone else's family. How can there be any reason to return to her parents' family and become the head of the family? This makes no sense..."

The clan elders publicly expressed their opposition, and other clan members naturally dared to follow suit and give the title of family head to a female child, which was simply unheard of.

But it is not that there are no voices of approval, but most of them are out of speculative psychology, hoping to win the favor of the future regent princess and reap benefits in the future.

Of course, there are also tribesmen who are neutral. They do not offend both sides and please both sides.

The scene was extremely lively for a while, everyone held their own opinions, and no one could convince anyone.

Bo Qingya, the only person present who didn't have the surname Gu, couldn't help but look anxious when he saw this scene. These old stubborns didn't even look at who made the Gu family prosperous?

This is challenging the adoptive father's patience. Do they understand that the adoptive father is declaring, not asking for their opinions.

He wanted to stand up and support Gu Deyin, and show some color to these old stubborns on the spot.

Gu Jianghuai saw through his mind at a glance and glanced at him, signaling him to calm down.

He just barely suppressed the restlessness in his heart and continued to sit there and listen to a group of self-righteous people talking, the expression on his face became increasingly ugly.

At this time, Gu Deyin raised her eyes and saw everyone's reactions. This wave of opposition was higher than the previous wave. She expected it from the day she decided to become the head of the Gu family. This road won't be easy.

If she backed down because of this, then all her years of hard work would be in vain. That was not okay, and she would never allow it.

Her father set up a stage for her, and it was her turn to sing in the next play.

She is the protagonist of this scene.

She raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at the clan elder who initially jumped out to object, "I remember that when you first came here, you praised my ability. You also said that with my ability, I deserve to be the head of the clan. Why did you swallow the words you said so quickly?”

The clan elder blushed instantly. Those words were just compliments to Gu Deyin, and they could be said as pleasant as they please. However, when they were actually implemented, it was another matter.

When Gu Laoer was taken back to the clan for execution some time ago, he once said that Gu Jianghuai was going to make his daughter the head of the family, so that old guys like them should be more alert, but they didn't listen to this at that time, they just thought it was Gu Laoer wanted to slander his brother before he died, which was really deplorable.

Now I just realized that I had made a mistake, and I really regretted it. No wonder when they came to Beijing, Gu Jianghuai directly asked his daughter to come forward. This was silently telling them that he had already chosen his heir.

But it was absolutely impossible to fall out with Gu Deyin, so he had no choice but to speak softly.

"Sister Yin, you are a good boy. Our Gu family will rely on you a lot in the future. My uncle is old. It is a luxury to be able to attend your wedding this time. However, this world has its own rules. Do you want to Why is the person who is the regent obsessed with the position of the head of the Gu family? "

Seeing this clan elder speaking, other clan elders also spoke one after another.

"Sister Yin, let's do this. It's up to you to choose your father's heir. As long as you like a son from a family, we will agree to adopt him to your father. In the future, he and you will support each other. This is the blessing of our Gu family. ah……"

It seems that the conditions are extremely generous, but the root cause is that men are superior to women. Not only that, they also want to suck the blood of their daughters to feed their son.

Gu Deyin was really eye-opening. These people really used the word shameless to the fullest.

She sneered and said, "Do I look like I've been taken advantage of?"

As soon as these words came out, the elders who had tried to persuade her suddenly stopped talking. Gu Deyin's attitude made them very dissatisfied, but they did not dare to argue with her.

"I am my father's daughter. It is only natural that I inherit my father's mantle. Today I will tell you that I will not give my father an heir. You should give up on this idea."

Don't even think about using her as a blood bag to support the Gu family.

"Jiang Huai, why don't you talk about your daughter? How can there be such a reason?"

Those clan elders did not dare to confront Gu Deyin, so they turned against Gu Jianghuai and asked Gu Jianghuai to take care of Gu Deyin.

Gu Jianghuai said, "What my daughter wants is what I want. When I get old, my daughter will be responsible. What's the point of having an heir?"

"No, Jiang Huai, aren't you afraid that there will be no incense to enjoy after you die? In the future, your lineage will be extinct. Besides, after a hundred years, who will buy you water? Have you considered this?"

Regarding this topic, Gu Jianghuai said very honestly, "I will be dead by then. Why will I care about this? Besides, I will be enshrined in the Gu family ancestral hall in the future. Do you think I still lack incense?"

These words made other people's so-called truths stop in their stomachs. I have never seen such a rogue person.

"Also, if my daughter's bloodline survives, that is the continuation of my bloodline. There is no such thing as extinction."

He was very open-minded on this matter, and no one could convince him on this matter.

All the clan elders were so angry that they almost couldn't breathe. How could there be such a person in this world?
When Gu Deyin heard what her father said, she was moved to tears. No matter in her previous life or in this life, her father had never thought about adoption. From the beginning to the end, she was his only choice.

"Dad, my daughter will not let you have no love for a hundred years. Don't worry. I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer to this matter." When Gu Jianghuai heard this, Lao Huai laughed comfortingly, "Okay, I Trust my daughter."

The father and daughter sang in harmony, leaving others unable to say anything and could only stare.

After being moved, Gu Deyin put away her emotional heart and looked at the Gu family members with a straight face again.

"Well, don't say that our father and daughter bully you. I will give you two choices. One is that our father and daughter leave the Gu family, and the other is to accept me as the head of the Gu family. You choose one."

These words were simply a threat, and the faces of all the Gu family members were extremely ugly.

The Gu family business belongs to Gu Jianghuai rather than the clan. Without him, the Gu family would still be an inconspicuous small family in Jiangnan. It would not be able to reach the high position it is today, let alone the annual dividends that everyone in the clan receives. Then It was all earned by Gu Jianghuai.

Furthermore, the resources of the trade route are all in the hands of Gu Jianghuai. As soon as he leaves, the Gu family will be destroyed.

And Gu Deyin was even more ambitious. Marrying into the Xuanning Hou Mansion was already a high achievement, but who knew that after divorce, she could actually go to the next level and directly become the royal daughter-in-law.

How could they let the two father and daughter leave the Gu family and start their own business?

Once their own interests are involved, some ordinary tribesmen immediately jump out and say, "Why can't my daughter become the head of the family? I support Sister Yin becoming the head of the family."

Someone took a stand, and others immediately echoed that the annual dividends should not be wasted.

"Yes, I also support it. Sister Yin is capable, and we all can see it. The most important thing is for the head of the family to select talents."

As a result, there are not many clan members who can sit still and support the stubborn elders. Seeing such a general trend, they all feel that they can't sit still.

Gu Deyin smiled, raised her hand and gently pressed down on the tribesmen who supported her, signaling them to be quiet for the time being.

The scene calmed down, and she said, "Uncles, are you still stubborn? The Gu family is not only yours, but also belongs to all our clan members. We also have the right to decide the future direction of the Gu family."

This is not the case in Jiangnan. When they talk to each other, in the capital, they have to follow her rules.

Several clan elders looked at each other in confusion. They could see that this was the general trend. Normally they could suppress these ordinary clansmen, but now that Gu Jianghuai and his daughter were stirring up trouble, things were out of control.

After all, money and silk moved people's hearts, and some elders betrayed them on the spot.

"Actually, it's not impossible for a daughter to be the head of the clan. I've seen Sister Yin's ability. She's the head of the clan, and I agree with it."

When the clan elders saw that someone among them had rebelled, they first glared at the traitor, but they were not willing to let them continue to confront Gu Jianghuai and his daughter.

In the end, no matter whether they agree or not, they all have to hold their noses and admit that Gu Deyin is the new head of the Gu family.

Gu Jianghuai readily handed over the family head's seal to his daughter.

"Daughter, my father can only plan for you so far. You have to walk the road in the future on your own."

Gu Deyin held the heavy seal and felt a slight soreness in her nose. She knew why her father, who was in his prime, handed over power early. This was to add chips to her new marriage. Even if it was difficult to fight against the imperial power, he had already given all his strength. All of it.

"Dad, my daughter will not let you down."

She will work hard to manage her career and marriage well, and she will definitely live a good life in the future.

The news of the change of head of the Gu family quickly spread throughout the business circle. Although she received a lot of criticism, most of them approved of her.

This also inspired many girls who were born in merchant families. It turned out that they could also choose another path. Families who loved their only daughter also began to think of ways to imitate them.

Of course this is a story for later.

When Xiao Mingzhang heard the news, he couldn't help but feel happy. He automatically blocked the voices from others who were worried that Gu Deyin was too ambitious, and even scolded them.

With his support, the voices in the court that opposed Xiao Mingzhang's marriage to Gu Deyin were instantly silenced. No one would be so stupid as to lose his or her own future for a vague speculation.

Princess Yuanjia sighed, when will the Shang Dynasty have a queen?

She has no chance in this life. In the future, generations of princesses will work hard, but she can look forward to it.

Gu Deyin was busy taking over as the head of the family and had a lot of trivial matters. Even the officials from the Ministry of Etiquette sent by the court to explain the wedding process could only spare a short time to meet them, and then left everything to Hua Shu and Hua Chao. Ask them to remember the details and explain them to her when she is free.

The official of the Ministry of Etiquette was dissatisfied and felt that he was not taken seriously, but he dared not speak out in anger, so he had no choice but to argue with the two maids about the process.

After Xiao Mingzhang heard the official from the Ministry of Rites came back to report, he didn't say anything openly, but secretly sneaked into Gu's house when Gu Deyin returned to the dormitory after finishing his work.

He suddenly appeared, and Gu Deyin couldn't see clearly for a moment, and was so frightened that he wanted to scream.

He stepped forward, covered her mouth, and whispered, "Master Gu, it's me." (End of Chapter)
