"Yes!" Yu Zhanshan nodded and said, "There are only five votes left. If the three of you come a little later, you can meet our new head of the family directly."
At this time, everyone's eyes fell on Yu Qiuyu's face.
In the eyes of most people, there is no doubt that the head of the family must be Yu Qiuyu.
Yu Hai has lost the opportunity and is almost confirmed to be defeated.
"Oh?" The head of the Li family asked with a smile: "What is the vote rate now?"
"There are three candidates for the head of the family this time. The first one is Yu Qiuyu, who got ninety-nine votes. The second one is Yu Hai, who got ninety-four votes. The head of the house will be chosen between them."
Yu Zhanshan did not mention Yu Jinxue's name, which was considered to be a favor to Yu Jinxue, because Yu Jinxue's vote rate was very low, far behind Yu Qiuyu and Yu Hai.
"There's only a difference of five votes! Is there such a small difference?" the head of the Li family said in surprise.
"Yeah, I didn't guess it before. I didn't expect the competition among the family heads to be so fierce and stalemate this time!" Yu Zhanshan said.
"Then there is no need for us to come with so many people!" The head of the Li family looked around and said to the head of the Liu family and the head of the Wang family.
This was a very puzzling statement for the Yu clan members present.
No one can understand.
Even Yu Zhanshan, who was most familiar with the clan rules, couldn't understand it.
He couldn't remember that rule because it had not been used for more than two hundred years.
What made them feel even more confused was that the head of the Liu family and the head of the Wang family actually nodded in agreement.
In fact, even if they knew that three people were not needed, they would still come.
After all, it was something that had been promised a long time ago, so there was no reason to be absent.
"What are the three of you talking about?" At this time, Yu Qiuyu finally couldn't help but ask.
In fact, from the moment the three masters entered the door, he had a faint feeling that something was wrong.
But as for what was wrong, he couldn't figure it out.
He just felt that this was a bit too extraneous and not a good sign.
So when he heard that strange sentence just now, he felt an even greater sense of crisis!
This bad premonition made him feel very uncomfortable.
If possible, he even hoped that the three masters would leave immediately!
The head of the Wang family smiled and said, "That's it. Two days ago, we looked through the classics handed down from our ancestors and found this article. That is, if the Yu family chooses the head of the family, each of our four major families will automatically get five votes. It’s up to the head of the family to decide who to vote for.”
"What?"
Everyone was a little confused when they heard this!
Yu Qiuyu couldn't believe her ears, and couldn't help asking: "Mr. Wang, did I hear it correctly? Could you please repeat it again?"
The head of the Wang family nodded and said: "Actually, our four major families have not used this voting power for more than two hundred years, but this time..."
Speaking of this, he glanced at Yu Ye and said, "This time is different, because I heard that Yu Ye's father is also a candidate."
This time, Yu Qiuyu finally heard it clearly, but he didn't understand it.
How come the Yu family chooses the head of the family while other families also have the right to vote?
This isn't quite right!
Yu Qiuyu turned his head to his family elder Yu Zhanshan.
As the top elder in the family, Yu Zhanshan is familiar with the classics of the family, so he should know the rules of the family very well.
Yu Zhanshan gently stroked his long beard and said slowly: "The rules mentioned by the three family heads are indeed true."
…
For a moment, the whole place was silent!
Everyone was shocked!
How can this be?
Many people are scratching their heads.
Yu Zhanshan said slowly: "This rule existed six hundred years ago, because at that time, the head of our Yu family worshiped the four heads of the four major families and swore an oath to heaven. From then on, the five major families will work together." Qi connects branches,
So if the four major families elect the head of the family, our Yu family also has the right to vote. However, two hundred years ago, our ancestors of the Yu family did something untimely and parted ways with the four major families, so that voting Quan, each other also gave up.
Later, our Yu family gradually declined and no longer prospered in the past. Later generations gradually forgot about it, and people in the clan became less and less fond of reading ancestral classics. Therefore, only the elders of the family could know about it. "
"I still don't believe it..." Yu Qiuyu hurriedly said to Zhan Shan, "Can you take out the book that records this matter and take a look?"
When everyone heard this, they scratched their heads.
Because the Yu family is an ancient family, with a history of more than a thousand years.
There are so many classics from past dynasties. If you try to read them now, you don’t know when.
Is this a bit too much trouble?
But at this moment, Yu Ye suddenly raised his voice and said: "The classics are here!"
As he spoke, he opened a box that had been placed on the table for a long time and took out an ancient classic from it!
Everyone took a closer look, weren't these the classics in the Yu family's library?
Most people in the Yu clan have seen this kind of lake-blue book cover, but almost no one has looked through it.
At this time, Yu Ye stopped pretending.
He knew that sooner or later the clansmen would find out that it was he who found the homes of these three major families today.
Pretending is useless.
"You brat, you actually took the classics outside? Did you ask for my permission?"
Yu Zhanshan stood up and read the classics carefully for a long time. He suddenly became furious and walked straight over. He was going to beat Yu Ye with a walking stick!
Yu Ye hurriedly dodged and said with a smile: "Master Shan, please calm down. If I don't prepare it for you in advance, when will you find a time to go?"
Yu Zhanshan couldn't help but make another sweeping move with his walking stick. Yu Ye retreated again and hurriedly said: "Master Shan, stop fighting. There are so many people here, it's a joke."
"I punish my children of the Yu family, no matter what others do!" As he said that, Yu Zhanshan used the walking stick again. When Yu Ye dodged to avoid it, the walking stick directly split the table in half!
"Oh, my mom, this table is so valuable!" Yu Ye exclaimed.
"Okay, okay, Mr. Shan, isn't this classic in good condition? I think you shouldn't pursue it. Yu Ye also has good intentions."
The head of the Wang family stood next to the classics, and while talking, he opened the first page of the classics.
"Don't move!" Yu Zhanshan hurriedly ran to the classics, protected the classics, and said, "Only the descendants of my Yu family can read this classic!"
"Oh, haha, I didn't know your family had so many rules, haha!"
In fact, the original intention of the head of the Wang family was to help Yu Ye get out of trouble. When he saw that Yu Zhanshan had abandoned Yu Ye and ran over, he yelled and backed away.
Yu Zhanshan protected the classics and turned his head to glare at Ye Heng.
Yu Ye just stood there with a playful smile on his face and said with a smile: "Uncle Shan, I know which page that ancestral saying is on. Let me tell you, it's on the fourth page."
