rings are crazy

At [-] o'clock in the evening, the Zou Clan Meeting, as the first official family meeting after the original patriarch Zou Changlong was killed, basically all those in charge inside and outside, as well as those with seniority, senior qualifications, and important words were all present. To the Ming Dynasty when the prince.

The person presiding over the meeting was an old man with a long beard. He looked more classical than Zhang Jingzhi. His surname was Zou and his name was Shucheng. He was in his seventies this year.There is a strange phenomenon in the Zou family, that is, the whole family is generally short-lived ghosts, and only a handful of them can live to the seventies.It is said that this is because when the Zou family set up the ancestral tomb, they took a fancy to a geomantic treasure land with the image of two dragons swallowing the sea, but it was a pity that it was occupied by others.The ancestor of the Zou family was not a good bird, so he dug up his ancestral grave and occupied the dragon's veins. As a result, although the Zou family flourished from then on, they got into trouble with evil spirits because of the digging of the grave. Neither live long.

Of course, there is no way to test whether this legend is true or not, but it is true that the Zou family basically did not live long. Like this Zou Shucheng, in terms of seniority, he should be called the grandfather, the only one left in his generation.Fortunately, even though this guy is a bit old, his mind is not confused, and his speech is quite mature and prudent.

The first part of the meeting, of course, was to announce the will and recognize Li Weidong as the heir.With the firm support of the two brothers Zou Changmeng and Zou Changsheng, plus the advance ventilation during the day, of course no one would object at this time.

The next step is to discuss how to deal with the traitor Zou Changde. This guy is in touch with foreign enemies, not to mention killing his own brother, even his wife and children. Naturally, not killing is not enough to appease public anger.It's just how to kill, some say that the heart should be cut open, and some say that it takes a thousand cuts to relieve the hatred, and the opinions are not unified.

Zou Changde was also brought over on a stretcher. His tendons and hamstrings were severed, and his body was covered in blood.However, this fellow is also very bachelor, knowing that he will not escape death no matter what, he simply recruited himself and confessed to the evil he committed.It was those who shouted the most vigorously, which made Li Weidong sneer, thinking that when Zou Changde was not killed, as the temporary head of the family, these clan relatives would be eager to hug their thighs; , and can't wait to step on ten thousand feet.The so-called wall falls and everyone pushes it, it really isn't bad.

Chang Zou knocked on the table fiercely, waited for everyone to quiet down, and said: "The Zou family has such a scum, it is a misfortune for the family. Of course Zou Changde's death is not a pity, but I think it is impossible for him to do all the bad things alone. Guaranteed that among us, is there anyone who wears a pair of trousers with him? When Zou Changde was in charge, there were many confidantes surrounding him, why no one stood up to speak for him now? Zou Changde is all the way, and now he admits that he can still have a good time, if I get the fuck out of him, he will end up like this traitor!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the huge meeting room suddenly became noisy.The most fearful thing at this time is to be implicated. Once you get involved with a traitor, wouldn't your life be over?So regardless of their relationship with Zou Changde on weekdays, or whether they are his confidantes or not, they all put on a posture of righteous indignation at this moment, fearing that the boundary line was not clear enough to express their loyalty to the Zou family.Li Weidong turned his head to look at Zou Changsheng, and said, "Fourth Brother, you must have the same meaning as Third Brother?"

Zou Changsheng was taken aback, then turned to look at his brother, unable to figure out what Li Weidong meant by saying "Go to the country to seduce beautiful men" Quan Fang read.Zou Changmeng hurriedly said: "Brother, Zou Changde, a scum, must have premeditated his plot to take the position of Patriarch. I don't know how many people have been recruited in secret. If you cut the grass and don't get rid of the roots, there will be endless troubles! Back then, the second brother was not ruthless enough, so he cleared the house earlier. The Zou family won't fall to where it is today, I'm also thinking about you and the foundation of the Zou family!"

Li Weidong smiled slightly. It should be said that Zou Changmeng's words were not unreasonable. Zou Changde's calculation of the position of Patriarch was deliberate. With so many people in the Zou family, of course he wanted to win over his confidants.But the two brothers proposed to clean up the family at this time, and their intention was not to do so, but to send a message to Li Weidong: Our two brothers have absolutely nothing to do with Zou Changde. Coveted the seat of the Patriarch.

It's not wrong to clean up the house, but it's not suitable at this time. The reason is very simple. The Zou family has just experienced one disaster after another, and people's hearts are unstable. If they fight among themselves at this time, they will only put everyone in danger.Anyway, Zou Changde has already finished playing, the bird has no head and cannot fly, so what if he has more confidantes?It is much more important to reassure people than to drive them into corners.

Raising his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, Li Weidong said: "The culprit who killed Mr. Zou was Zou Changde. Since the murderer has been caught, this matter is over. I don't care about the relationship between you and Zou Changde, whether it is a confidant or a rival, in short, I don't want to Seeing the Zou family killing each other, I don't want to see people with unscrupulous intentions taking the opportunity to tell lies and implicate innocent people. As a century-old family, the Zou family can be passed down to this day. I'm afraid it is inseparable from their vision and tolerance. , a person should look forward, especially for a family, it is meaningless to dwell on those old accounts. Since you can trust me, Li Weidong, and let me take the position of the head of the family, I will make a rule here today: no matter you used to Everything you have said and done will be written off, and you don’t have to worry that I will settle accounts later in the fall; but from now on, I want the Zou family to unite as one, everyone has the same blessings and shared hardships, and everyone who has money earns it. If someone wants to play tricks behind the scenes, hehe, as long as you think you can play tricks better than me, you might as well give it a try, but the ugly words come first, and when that day comes, don’t blame me for being a black hand. What I said, everyone Do you understand?"

There was a moment of silence, and I don't know who slapped his hands lightly twice, and then there was a burst of applause.In fact, the so-called unconfident or cronies are just standing on the wrong team, and there is no real distinction between good and bad in front of interests.When Zou Changde collapsed, everyone was most worried about pulling out the radish and bringing out the mud. How many people would be implicated in that.As Li Weidong said, if another villain takes the opportunity to instigate, who can guarantee that he will not be unlucky?And Li Weidong's reassurance immediately made many people's hanging hearts fall back into their stomachs.Including the brothers Zou Changmeng and Zou Changsheng, the two brothers have had a lot of private money over the years. Once Li Weidong grabs this braid and insists on it, the wealth that they have accumulated for half their lives will most likely be in vain!

In fact, people have to be skeptical about this super young patriarch. The Zou family basically belongs to the kind that admires Li Weidong's mind but can't believe in his ability.After all, leading a family is not playing tricks. The knowledge, strategy, character and courage of the head of the family will determine the fate and future of the whole family.What real ability can he Li Weidong have?After all, he was just a big boy, and he didn't even have a beard. At most, he was smarter and luckier.

But at this moment, Li Weidong's straightforward words made everyone look at him with admiration.To everyone's surprise, this young patriarch not only has brains, but also has a magnanimity and courage that most people don't have. It's easy to write off a sentence, but there are very few people who can really do it. No wonder Whether it is Zou Changlong or Lu Bohan, these two veterans all chose Li Weidong as his successor. The first of the three fires that the new official took office won the hearts of the people!

This time even Zou Changmeng and Zou Changsheng were obviously relieved and expressed their unconditional support for Li Weidong's decision.Zou Changde had been lying on a stretcher and watched everyone perform coldly. Then he raised his head and sighed, and said, "Li Weidong, I thought you were just lucky, but now I know that you are hiding everything. I fell into your hands." I admit it, and the one who loses is convinced, and the only thing I want is to die."

Before Li Weidong could say anything, Zou Changsheng shouted, "You fucking traitor! Want to die? How can it be so easy! Take him down, and I will serve him personally, so that he can't live without dying!"

Zou Changmeng and Zou Changsheng are twin brothers, and their looks are the same as those carved out of a mold, but their speech is completely different. Zou Changmeng's name is very vigorous, but his voice is very shrill and effeminate, while Zou Changsheng is a typical Zhang Fly, the voice is thick and loud, talking like a cannon, the eardrums of the people are buzzing.However, Li Weidong's ears were unusual, and he stood beside him again, frowning in shock, and quickly waved his hands to signal Zou Changde to be carried out.

The old man Zou Shucheng continued to preside over the meeting. The next thing was to discuss the succession ceremony of trusting the head of the family. This is a big event for a family, and of course it cannot be taken lightly.Everyone was aroused by Li Weidong's words just now, and they were discussing in a hurry, but Li Weidong still raised his hands and pressed down, interrupting everyone's conversation.

"About He General, you all know it well, right?" Li Weidong frowned slightly, and said slowly: "This topic is a bit sensitive, but there is no way to escape the current situation, and someone must face it I know that the reason why everyone supports me as the head of the family is that on the one hand, Mr. Zou appointed me in his will, and on the other hand, they also hope to use me as a shield, to put it harshly, as a scapegoat. Everyone thinks so That's right, I, Li Weidong, have a foreign surname. Since I want to be the head of the Zou family, I have to show some sincerity. Therefore, don't worry about the succession ceremony. I will first solve the current crisis for the Zou family. If it can be settled, I will Stay as the head of the family, if you fail, all the consequences will be borne by me, Li Weidong, and you will not be affected."

Li Weidong's voice was not loud, but it made the huge conference room quiet down. After a while, Zou Changmeng said in disbelief: "Brother, you mean... you, alone? No, no, no, no! This is all because of Zou Changmeng. Starting from home, how can I let you solve the burden alone, and to face it, everyone with the surname Zou should have a share!"

"Yes! Didn't Mr. Li say to be united? The family is in trouble, how can we stand by and watch, the Zou family are all seven-foot-tall men, there are no cowards! Mr. Li, just say what to do, we will listen to you!"

I don't know who yelled out a voice, which immediately aroused a burst of echo.Li Weidong nodded with a smile, and said, "Okay. I'm very happy to have everyone's words, but what I said just now is not to ask for your opinions, but to make a decision."

As soon as the words were finished, Zhang Jingzhi hurried in, bowed slightly to Li Weidong, hesitated for a while, and said, "The general is awake, he wants to see you."

What should come, finally came.Li Weidong clenched his fist slightly, General, maybe this should be the last contest between us, since you don't plan to let me go, then it's time for us to end it!
