"Mother, I know you are sad. The sixth sister was also very frightened last night. It's better to let the sixth sister rest." Xu Jinchao said, showing his demeanor as an elder brother.
The second and third uncles of the Xu family also said that it was pitiful for Xu Yihuan to pay her respects to her father, so they asked her to step back, and the eldest lady was also persuaded to do so.
Xu Jinchao, his second uncle, his third uncle, and their two sons were left in the hall. Only these few showed their true intentions.
"It's really sad that my brother passed away suddenly. It's just that such a big family business as the Xu family needs to be run, and we can't be leaderless. I usually take charge of the dock affairs, and now I have to shoulder the heavy responsibility." Uncle Xu said, seeming to be very righteous. look like.
Third Uncle Xu chuckled, "Second Brother, this is a really good plan. You usually don't achieve much, but you still dare to ask yourself to shoulder the burden of the family? I won't agree to it!"
"Second Uncle, as for you, you should continue to take care of the dock business and worry less about other things." Xu Zhijie, son of Third Uncle Xu, also said.
Second Uncle Xu slammed the table and cursed, "What qualifications do you have to say these things?! No matter what, it's not your turn, I tell you!"
The atmosphere became tense. At this time, Xu Yunqiu, the eldest aunt of the Xu family, arrived. She looked in a hurry. She had just caught the train from Shanghai. As soon as she entered the Xu family, she heard a quarrel in the main hall.
Xu Yunqiu walked into the main hall, attracting everyone's attention.
"My eldest brother died a tragic death, and you still have the heart to argue here?"
As soon as she said these words, Uncle Xu and Uncle Xu both had pale faces and lowered their heads.
Xu Jinchao stood up and respectfully asked Xu Yunqiu to sit down, "My aunt has come back after a long journey to see my father off for the last time. My father's spirit in heaven must be gratifying. Please sit down and have a rest."
Seeing Xu Jinchao's injured arm, Xu Yunqiu sighed heavily, "You are my eldest brother's biological brothers. The accident happened just one day ago, and it's so ugly! It's not even as good as the adopted son Jin Chao did!"
"It's really unfortunate for our family!"
"Then Xu Jinzhao is not the uncle's father's son..." Xu Zhijie muttered.
There was a cold look in Xu Jinchao's eyes, but he quickly covered it up without saying a word of defense. This was indeed an indisputable fact.
However, Xu Yunqiu was not used to Xu Zhijie, nor was she used to the second uncle Xu and the third uncle Xu. After drinking a cup of tea, she scolded the two father and son until they dared to discuss the inheritance rights of the Xu family's property.
After the small gathering in the main hall dispersed, the second and third uncles of the Xu family left by car, and Xu Jinchao did his best to arrange a room for Xu Yunqiu.
The storm in the Xu family had not officially begun yet. On the third day after Xu Chuan's death, Xu Chuan was buried and a memorial service was held. Almost everyone from all walks of life in Yuncheng came to the Xu Mansion to express their condolences.
Qi Chuchu and the other brothers and sisters had been standing aside, their necks almost breaking when they bowed.
Oh my god..., this mission is to become the helmsman of the Xu family? ! It seems more difficult, right? Qi Chuchu couldn't help but think of this, and felt even more tired.
After finally making it to the evening, the entire Xu family sat at the same dining table to eat.
The eldest lady and Xu Yunqiu were sitting in the upper seats, and the others were sitting on both sides.
"Sister, I wonder when you will leave to return to Shanghai?" Mrs. Xu asked with a smile on her face.
Xu Yunqiu slowly ate the fish pieces on the plate, took another sip of soup to moisten her throat, and said, "Why do you, my second brother and sister, care about this?"
Mrs. Xu smiled forcefully and said, "Eldest sister came from Shanghai to attend the funeral of eldest brother. She has been traveling all the way. I am also afraid that eldest sister's body will not be able to support it."
"Yes." Second Uncle Xu also answered.
Humph, how could Xu Yunqiu not know what her two younger brothers were thinking, she just said, "Second brother, second younger brother and sister, you don't need to worry about this. You two are very concerned about these little things, it's not easy."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Yunqiu wiped his hands and left the table.
After she left, Mrs. Xu immediately lost her temper and hit Uncle Xu several times, "I already told you that I don't want to talk to eldest sister, but you still want me to ask, are you okay now? And you still have to be ridiculed! I can’t eat this meal anymore!”
"Madam, madam..."
After Uncle Xu and his wife left, the remaining people were silent.
The eldest lady had not yet recovered from her grief, and she was feeling dizzy.
Qi Chuchu's two sisters, Xu Yiwan and Xu Yishu, only focused on eating.
After a while, Xu Jinchao's voice suddenly came. He said, "Mother, have you finished using it? Can you go to the study with your son to talk about it?"
After hearing this, the eldest lady also wiped her hands and went to the study with Xu Jinchao.
"Mother, second uncle and third uncle are all eyeing the Xu family's property. My father left very suddenly, and my younger brother is still young. Now, we only have one plan that can work." Xu Jinchao said.
Hearing this, the eldest lady nodded silently. Her eyes were dull and she just asked Xu Jinchao, "Do you have a way to keep the Xu family's property?"
"Of course there is."
