C625 The New Head of the Family!
C625 The New Head of the Family!
"Only the people of the Jiang Family will be cursed by this curse!"
"It is said that the souls of those who are cursed will be imprisoned by the souls of the ancestors. They will wander between heaven and earth, never to return to their bodies!"
Hearing Jiang Gushu's description, Jiang Yu gradually recalled the rumors she had heard since she was young.
Jiang Guchan and Jiang Zheng's current appearance was just like their souls leaving their bodies and being cursed.
Jiang Yu could not help but believe Jiang Gushu's words.
"Then, what should we do now?"
She had no idea what to do and could only ask Jiang Gushu, who was the most experienced in the family, for help.
The corner of Jiang Gushu's mouth curled up secretly, then he said seriously, "The most important thing right now is to select a new family head!
The new family head represents the entire family, entering the Qi Residence, offering sacrifices to the ancestral spirit, begging for their forgiveness!
"Only in this way will we be able to save the Patriarch and Xun Er!"
"The new clan master..."
Jiang Yu looked at Jiang Zhong in front of her in a daze. Her eyes were filled with confusion.
Right now, she and Jiang Zhong were the only direct descendants of the immediate family.
Whether it was in terms of seniority or the prestige of the family, it was obvious that Jiang Zhong was more suitable to be the family head than she was.
But the problem was, this involved another rule of the Jiang Family.
That was, when a family head was unable to explain his inheritance for some reason, he could choose a new family head from the family head's son.
However, in order to prevent two clan heads from appearing at the same time, the clan rules also stipulated that once a new clan head took the position, regardless of whether the old clan head regained consciousness or not, he would not be allowed to take the position of clan head from the hands of the new clan head again.
In other words, if Jiang Zhong takes over the new family head now, even if Jiang Guchan wakes up later, he can only tacitly approve of Jiang Zhong's position as family head.
This was what Jiang Yu was conflicted about.
Because he knew that Jiang Guchan would never pass the position of family head to Jiang Zhong no matter what.
If he woke up and found out that there was a change in the family, I don't know how angry I'll be!
"Why don't we wait a little longer? Perhaps the two of them will wake up very soon?"
Jiang Yu looked around with pleading eyes, but it attracted a sneer.
"Little sister, you are still so naive!
If you continue to wait like this, father and big brother's souls have not returned for too long. Perhaps they will never return!"
Xiao Xuanxuan's cold voice made Jiang Yu's face turn pale.
She weakly sat on the ground, tears and mist slowly spreading out from her eyes.
Jiang Gushu and the others seemed to no longer care about Jiang Yu's attitude.
Jiang Gushu shouted at the surrounding branch family disciples. "There is no time to lose, let's start the emergency succession ceremony for the new family head now!"
He ordered people to bring over two black empty boxes and some small stones.
These empty boxes and small stones were the things that the branch family members voted for.
In the ancient Jiang Family, any family disciples who had a ceremony similar to the succession ceremony would throw stones into the boxes one by one.
Whoever had the most stones in the boxes would be chosen as the new family head.
These two boxes were naturally owned by Jiang Zhong and Jiang Yu.
"Alright, since everyone is fine, let's start voting now!
I hope that Zhong Er will succeed the family head and vote for the box on the left.
I hope that Yu'er will succeed the family head and vote for the box on the right."
"I declare. The new family head successor vote, officially begins!"
