Rebirth of Urban Comprehension

Chapter 123 Family Meeting (1)

Three days later, the Zhou Family Manor, which had always been deserted, became bustling, with vehicles coming and going from time to time.People in the entire capital began to pay attention to the changes in the Zhou family.Of course, it's not a day or two for them to pay attention to the Zhou family.Since the accident with the Zhou family's young master, many people have begun to pay attention to the Zhou family.

Many people are speculating about the changes in the Zhou family's manor this time, and of course they also know that this is a gathering of the Zhou family.However, the Zhou family's family reunion has not been held for several years, and this time it was held suddenly, it seems that the Zhou family has already taken a new action.

However, the patriarchs of the major families and many upper-class people in the capital have vaguely guessed the intention of the Zhou family's family gathering this time, that is, the position of the Patriarch of the Zhou family, which has been idle for ten years, seems to have begun to be settled.Moreover, the new head of the family is very likely to be the former Huahua Zhou who has been in the limelight recently.

Of course, the major aristocratic families also knew about some changes in Zhou Yi Myth Company, and what Zhou Yi was doing recently. The collapse of the three major aristocratic families in Hong Kong, although those aristocratic families in Hong Kong could not compare with them, still made them start to be shocked by Zhou Yi's performance .The aristocratic family has its own power to get these news, and they are not vegetarian.However, he chose to remain silent about this family gathering of the Zhou family.

Inside the Zhou Family Manor, there was an uproar.

"Ha, you're here too, cousin." A very handsome young man said affectionately when he saw another young man.

This person is Zhou Yi's uncle's son, Zhou Yi's cousin, Zhou Yun, Zhou Yi's childhood playmate.But after the previous head of the Zhou family died of illness, the family left the capital and went to Shanghai to take charge of a company of the Zhou family.

Generally in charge of the family business, out of the capital's collateral, there is no permission or work, and only at the family meeting will they return to the Zhou family headquarters in the capital.So since when, he never came to the capital again.

"Oh, so it's Cousin Zhou Yun. Long time no see, it seems like we haven't seen each other for ten years?" Zhou Yun's voice was heard.A young man also walked over enthusiastically, and then gave Zhou Yun a warm hug.

The young man was dressed in a captain's uniform, about 1.9 meters tall, with a strong body, and his wheat-colored complexion made him look so healthy.His name is Lin Guobing, he is the son of an aunt of Zhou Yi, of course, he is also Zhou Yi's childhood playmate.

Lin Guobing's father was the deputy commander of the Huaxia Kingdom's Lanzhou Military Region, a lieutenant general with hundreds of thousands of troops under his command.After Zhou Yi's father died, he was transferred to the Lanzhou Military Region as the second in command, and Lin Guobing also followed his father to the northwest at that time.Ten years have passed and I have not returned to the capital.

Zhou Yi had more than ten playmates when he was young, after all, there are many brothers and sisters in a big family.But the best playmates are Zhou Yun and Lin Guobing in front of him, but they haven't seen each other since they parted.

"Ha, you are becoming more and more like a handsome boy. You have really responded to Brother Yi's words. You are born with a handsome boy." After hugging, Lin Guobing carefully sized Zhou Yun up, looking at Zhou Yun's fair skin. Hastily made fun of.At that time Zhou Yi was the eldest of the three of them, and they all called Zhou Yi Brother Yi.

"Hmph, little boy? Let me tell you, I'm a seventh-rank master!" Zhou Yun quickly retorted, looking at Lin Guobing, a big, stupid man, he didn't think he would lose to Lin Guobing.

Although it is a collateral lineage, there are no restrictions on practicing the family's ancient martial arts.It was a means of keeping a family thriving.And this kid Zhou Yun is also working very hard, even though he is not a martial arts prodigy, but now he has cultivated to the seventh rank, which is really worth seeing.

"Eh? Rank seven?" Lin Guobing looked at Zhou Yun again. He didn't expect that Zhou Yun, who looked like a little boy, was actually a master of rank seven. It really surprised him, even if he was only at rank six now.

"That's right!" Zhou Yun said proudly, and immediately said: "I don't know how Brother Yi is doing now, I haven't seen him for ten years, I don't know what kind of situation he is in now."

As for Zhou Yi, they don't know much about it now either. After ten years apart, they all know Zhou Yi's situation more or less, and it's a mess.Because Zhou Yi's reputation in the capital is far and wide, they also know that Zhou Yi has become a prodigal son, a prodigal son.

Of course, this information is from a long time ago. As for Zhou Yi's situation now, they are of course not very clear about it.

"Yeah, I don't know how he is now. Hey." Lin Guobing sighed and said, they are Zhou Yi's real playmates, although it has been so long, but their concern for Zhou Yi is still sincere.

The family hadn't held a family meeting for several years, but this time the meeting was held suddenly, and everyone was a little at a loss.The two of them are also smart people, and they knew that the Zhou family was definitely going to change.

Because the senior members and direct members of the family are holding a closed-door meeting in the meeting room of the manor, and their fathers are inside, and they are not qualified to participate in such a meeting, so they can only stay outside and wait.Of course, it also made the two of them start to worry about Zhou Yi.

Although Zhou Yi is qualified to inherit the position of Patriarch, after all, Zhou Yi's performance in these years is really unsightly. Of course, they are worried whether Zhou Yi will really inherit the position of Patriarch of Zhou Family.This position has been held for ten years. If Zhou Yi can take it, why delay it for ten years?
And just as Lin Guobing and Zhou Yun guessed, the meeting room of the Zhou family is now discussing the position of the head of the Zhou family that has been vacant for ten years.

The family members who participated in the meeting were all top leaders in charge of the Zhou family's industry and affairs, including all aspects of military, government and business.And the meeting room that had been clean for ten years was now full of people, everyone was whispering why the family meeting was held, and they were all guessing the purpose of the meeting.

And Zhou Mingchang and his son Zhou Kui also sat on the chairs in the meeting room with a cold face. Both of them were not in a good mood and their faces were gloomy. Both of them vaguely knew the purpose of this meeting.It must be Steward Zhou who wants to help that boy Zhou Yi to be the head of the family. The whole news is not good news for them.

"Dad, what will we do later?" Zhou Kui tilted his head, and asked beside his father.

"Cold salad!" Zhou Changming said a little unwillingly. For ten years, the position of the head of the family has been pending. The purpose of today's meeting is obvious. It must be Fu Bo's housekeeper who wants to help Zhou Yi take the position. I have worked hard for ten years but there is no result. Unexpectedly Zhou Yi was not killed last time, but now he has become the head of the family. Zhou Changming was really unwilling, and an invisible glint flashed in his eyes. "Just wait and see what they want to say."

"Oh." Zhou Kui saw that his father's complexion was not good, so he had no choice but to stop talking, but his eyes were shining with a sinister light.

After a while, Zhou Yi brought his mother, sister and Butler Zhou to the meeting room.So everyone stood up one after another to express their welcome to the visitor. After all, the visitor has the legal heir to the position of Patriarch and the housekeeper Zhou who is a veteran. A smile shows enthusiasm.

Obviously, Steward Zhou's seniority is the oldest, and the parents have not yet elected, so Steward Zhou temporarily took the position of the Patriarch of the Zhou family, and Zhou Yi and his mother sat on the left of Steward Zhou. , followed by his mother and sister.And Zhou Yi's uncles sat on the right hand side of the housekeeper.Seeing that the butler and others were seated, all the people sat down.

After Zhou Yi entered the house, he scanned the situation inside the house.But what surprised him was that there were actually three people in military uniforms in the conference room.This surprised him a bit. Are there people from the Zhou family who are in the army?And looking at the costumes of the three of them, the grade is not low, one lieutenant general and two major generals!The three of them sat quietly in a corner, and when they saw a group of them coming in, they only gave a slight signal.

Zhou Yi's head started to work immediately, and the identities of the three were quickly obtained through Zhou Yi's memory from before.The lieutenant general is his uncle Lin Tian, ​​and the two major generals are his cousin Zhou Yuanguo, and the other is his cousin Zhou Yu, but this cousin is the grandson of a brother of his grandfather, who is a little far away from Zhou Yi, and The age is also 40 years old.

The meeting room suddenly fell silent. Seeing that everyone was present, Uncle Fu, the housekeeper, cleared his throat and said, "Okay, now that everyone is present, let's start the meeting." As the old man of the Zhou family, he Words still carry weight.

"The family meeting has not been held for several years, and since the unfortunate death of the previous Patriarch, the family meeting has never been held again. How time flies." Fu Bo said lightly.

Everyone didn't speak, but listened to the butler's words quietly, with a trace of sadness in their hearts.The unfortunate death of the previous Patriarch was a heavy blow to the Zhou family.

"A country cannot be without a king for a day, and a family cannot be without a head for a day. The position of the Patriarch of our Zhou family has been vacant for too long. This is not a good phenomenon. Today, the purpose of our family meeting is to re-establish a new patriarch. Let the Zhou family shake up from a new hero."

Except for Zhou Yi and the others, the other family members were attracted by the housekeeper's words one after another, and they also knew the main purpose of holding the family meeting this time.So they all started whispering and discussing.

However, they know who can be the head of the family.Zhou Yi has the legal right of succession. In the past, Zhou Yi took over the Zhou family and became the head of the family.They will definitely object, and Zhou Yi will also be deprived of his inheritance rights. Who told Zhou Yi to behave so badly before.But recently, it seems that Zhou Yi, the former flamboyant young man, has changed his past life and made people wonder. Moreover, they, as the top figures of the Zhou family, of course know the real changes in Zhou Yi recently, and also know This brought about the changes in the Shinhwa company that Zhou Yi took over.To be honest, even they couldn't believe that Zhou Yi would have such a big change.

Therefore, if there is no change, Zhou Yi is the candidate for the Patriarch of the Zhou family.The right choice for the house owner.

Zhou Yi's uncles are the other ones who are in suspense about succeeding the patriarch, but the most likely one is Zhou Changming.Because Zhou Changming has performed the best in ten years, and he is indeed a talent.However, Zhou Yi's sudden change of character now made those family members who were inclined towards Zhou Changming start to consider whether to support him.

Most importantly, the attitude of the housekeeper.Although the butler is not the real Zhou family, he is the one who speaks the most.Otherwise, why hasn't the position of Patriarch been elected in the past ten years?That means the housekeeper didn't express his opinion!
Now, Zhou Yi suddenly changed his nature, and the family meeting that had been suspended for several years was held. Could it be that there is nothing worth thinking about here?All the elites present here are the elites of the Zhou family. Everyone is not stupid. If the situation is unclear, it is better to keep silent.

After a while, seeing that no one spoke, Zhou Yi's elder sister spoke up: "It goes without saying, of course it is my younger brother. He is my father's only son, and he is also the rightful heir to the head of the family."

Zhou Jialin wasn't that patient. Originally, the owner of the house was her younger brother, so there was no need to discuss it.It's just that he also knew what the butler meant, she just wanted to raise the topic and establish Zhou Yi's position.

Zhou Yi just smiled and didn't speak, and the housekeeper's face didn't change much either.Zhou Yi's mother, Mei Suqiu, said: "Of course the Patriarch will be succeeded by Zhou Yi. After all, he is the only son of the Patriarch of the previous generation. According to the succession of the Patriarch, he is the only one who is the most suitable candidate."

Hearing Zhou Yi's mother and sister speak, some family members who are usually close to them also began to express their opinions.An uncle of Zhou Yi, Zhou Minghui, who was sitting next to Zhou Changming, also said: "The master of the house is indeed inherited by Master Zhou Yi. This is the rule set by the ancestors." He is the president of the finance department of Tianyu Group, and his words still carry a lot of weight.

However, after he left the words, a dissenting voice came out, it was Zhou Kui.Zhou Kui looked at Zhou Yi and said sarcastically, "I object. Although Master Zhou Yi is the son of the previous patriarch, everyone knows his usual performance. Can we rest assured that he will be the patriarch?"

Zhou Kui's voice fell, and another voice said: "I also object. The person who is the head of the family must be a person who can support the prosperity of the entire family. The performance of Master Zhou Yi over the years is indeed worthy of our consideration. His consequences, so I propose to discuss again, but I think the best candidate for the head of the family should be cousin Changming. Everyone has seen his performance carefully for many years, and I think he can lead the Zhou family to a new glory."

Zhou Yi's other uncle, Zhou Bao's family, was usually very close to Zhou Changming and his son, so he was considered Zhou Changming's family, so he also came out to oppose Zhou Yi's being the head of the family, and raised Zhou Changming.

After listening to these voices, there was a burst of discussion below, but everyone looked at Steward Zhou from time to time, waiting for Steward Zhou's answer.

And the three soldiers didn't speak, just sat there quietly and listened to the quarrel between the two sides.However, Zhou Yi felt strange whether their eyes were looking at Zhou Yi and the housekeeper.
