The short-lived ghost of the Xie family has lived a long life

Chapter 524 Senior
I have to say that this method of selecting the head of the family is quite smart.

Give opportunities to every child and grandchild. Whether they can rise to the top depends on whether God will reward them with food or not.

This not only ensures that each head of the family excels, but also leaves the loser with nothing to say.

Finally, he used his unique skills to bless the new head of the family, giving him the strength and confidence to stick to his word in the Zhu family.

Which ancestor of the Zhu family thought of this trick?
Absolutely!
Yan Sanhe suddenly called out: "Second Master?"

Zhu Laoer said in a very respectful tone: "Miss Yan, please speak."

Yan Sanhe: "Are you jealous of your brother?"

Old Zhu clenched his hands into fists, feeling that he had been underestimated.

"Miss Yan, how could I be jealous of my brother? He is better than me in everything, so he should be the head of the family."

Yan Sanhe: "Third Master, where are you?"

Zhu Laosan glanced at his eldest brother and decided to tell the truth: "I'm jealous."

Yan Sanhe: "What are you jealous of?"

Zhu Laosan himself smiled sheepishly at first.

"Jealous that he was the first to be born from my mother's womb. He has taken advantage of all the good things. Not to mention his intelligence and aura. Even his appearance cannot compare with us."

Zhu Yuanmo didn't expect his brother to think like this, "Third brother, you..."

"Big brother."

Zhu Laosan looked at him and sighed: "Although my mother loves me, as long as you are in front of her, her eyes will always only look at you. You just don't care."

Is it the eldest brother that Mom is looking at?
No!

My mother is looking at my father when he was young.

"When my third brother said that, I also remembered it."

Zhu Laoer pursed his lips and said, "Although Dad loves me, when talking to outsiders, he always talks about you, big brother, with a proud look on his face."

Dad is both the eldest brother's father and his master.

Only strict teachers can produce excellent students.

Therefore, you can't pamper or hurt your eldest brother, you can only be strict.

Thinking of this, Zhu Laoer finally understood why he was not jealous of his eldest brother, because his father favored him.

but in fact……

The person dad cares about most is always his eldest brother, but he hides it deeply.

"Second brother, third brother."

Zhu Yuanmo's eyes were a little sour, "Don't envy me, this position of head of the family is not easy to hold."

When he said this, he glanced at Yan Sanhe.

If he had said this three months ago, he would never have said this. Becoming the head of the Zhu family was his lifelong pursuit. He felt that he was born for this.

And now...

Zhu Yuanmo couldn't help but think of what his father once said to him: the more you get, the more you pay.

By the way, dad, do you want to tell Miss Yan this?

He thought to himself for a moment.

forget it. I'm done here.

It doesn't matter.

Yan Sanhe didn't know what Zhu Yuanmo was thinking. She just asked the "jealousy" question just to test the feelings of the three Zhu brothers.

The result of testing is: good.

Then it can be confirmed that Mr. Zhu's inner demons have nothing to do with his three sons.

The next step is to go back.

"Master Zhu has five legitimate brothers in his generation. Has Master Zhu, who was born as a concubine, been outstanding since he was a child and surpassed the other four legitimate sons?"

Zhu Yuanmo thought for a while, "It seems so."

"like?"

Yan Sanhe: "Why are you not sure?"

Zhu Yuanmo: "We three brothers cannot interfere with the affairs of the house until we are 15 years old. We must focus on our studies."

Zhu Laoer hurriedly said: "This is the rule of the Zhu family. If the sky falls, there will be a tall person to hold it up."

Zhu Laosan also said: "Our Zhu family also has a rule, don't get close to women before the age of 15."

Yan Sanhe: "Why?" Zhu Laosan: "In our profession, you can't be distracted. The word "sex" is like a knife on your head. It will do no good if the knife falls. My father said that my uncle was misled by beauty."

Uncle?

That is, Mr. Zhu’s eldest brother.

Yan Sanhe: "So, your uncle is quite good at fortune-telling?"

"That's what dad said."

Zhu Laosan: "If you want to know about the past, you'd better call the boss. He worked with my grandfather. Some things are clearer than we know."

Yan Sanhe glanced at Li Buyan, who immediately went to call someone.

When Zhu Jing came in, he brought in a chill.

He didn't dare to sit down. He just stood in the center of the back room and said to Yan Sanhe: "Girl, if you want to ask anything, just ask. I will definitely not hide it."

Yan Sanhe picked up the tea cup and said, "Sit down and I'll ask again."

Zhu Jing turned to look at the uncle, and when he saw the uncle nodded to him, he dared to sit down halfway.

Yan Sanhe still has the same problem.

"Master Zhu has five legitimate brothers in his generation. Has Master Zhu, who was born as a concubine, been outstanding since he was a child and surpassed the other four legitimate sons?"

The old manager thought about it seriously and said, "No."

Zhu Laosan looked surprised, "Boss, how could it not be the case?"

"Except for the master, the eldest master and the fifth master are all extremely talented."

The boss glanced at the third master, "Especially the fifth master. The old master said that if he suffers a loss, he will suffer the consequences."

"Wait!"

Yan Sanhe suddenly realized something was wrong.

She remembered that Mr. Mao once told her that Mr. Zhu's four brothers, the eldest and the fifth were gone, but the second and third were still there.

Is it such a coincidence?
Are the two people who left talented people?
The old manager was startled by Yan Sanhe's "Wait a minute": "Miss Yan, did I say something wrong?"

"No."

Yan Sanhe came to his senses, "Can you tell me in detail how the eldest master and the fifth master died?"

The old manager: "The fifth master had a bad health since he was a child, and he was always ill. He passed away not long after the division. The eldest master..."

"My uncle died a disgraceful death. He died of a woman."

Zhu Yuanmo answered: "He has always been a lecherous person, and he has fallen in love with all kinds of women. He has lost his wealth a long time ago."

Yan Sanhe: "How are these two mansions doing now?"

Zhu Yuanmo: "We are all in despair. We all rely on my father's help."

Yan Sanhe: "How can I help Fa?"

The old manager: "I give them 3000 taels of silver a year. It's impossible to get rich, but it's possible to live a stable life."

Yan Sanhe: "When did you start giving them?"

Boss: "After the death of the eldest master and the fifth master."

Yan Sanhe: "Give it every year?"

Manager: "I give it every year, and it never stops for a year."

Yan Sanhe: "Where are the second and third masters' houses?"

The old manager: "They are doing well. Although they are not as capable as our master, they can help people with Feng Shui and fortune telling, and they can make a lot of money."

Yan Sanhe: "Three years of assessment, who is Mr. Zhu's strongest competitor."

Boss: "It's also the eldest master and the fifth master."

Yan Sanhe: "Tell me exactly how you lost."

The old manager looked embarrassed: "Miss Yan, these are things in the secret realm. I really don't know."

Yan Sanhe: "So...after the First Master and the Fifth Master were defeated, were they convinced?"

"This……"

His face was even more difficult.

Yan Sanhe's eyes darkened.

"Zhu Jing, these are not things in the secret realm."
