Chapter 589 Who should be the new head of the Cai family?
After hearing Cai Mi's words, Liu Qi knew it.
It's similar to what he imagined.
Cai Mao is the head of the Cai family. Logically speaking, if Cai Mao is about to die, his position as a husband should be extended to his son.
But now there is a problem. Cai Mao's eldest son is still in the age of the chief lord and will not be established at all. He will let him inherit the position of the head of the family, but no one in the Cai clan will agree.
Then, Cai Mi began to slowly tell Liu Qi what had happened in the past few days.
Since Cai Mao's body was sent back to the Cai family, the entire Cai family seemed to be in an uproar.
The clan leaders of each branch rushed to the Cai Mansion, namely to mourn Cai Mao, but in fact, to discuss the ownership of the title of the Cai family.
Cai Mao's son is too young. If he was asked to inherit the position of the family, the people of the Cai family would not agree.
In particular, with Cai Zhong and Cai He as the leader, they joined forces with the heads of the Cai clans to secretly stumbling, threatening and forcing Cai Mao's wife to leave the Cai family with their children.
Mrs. Cai's orphans and widows naturally could not compete with them. She could only begging for the sake of the whole family and promised them that after the mourning period, she would take the child back to her mother's home in Zhonglu.
In this way, the position of the head of the Cai family was naturally suspended.
The children of the Cai family were eager to try and wanted to get to power.
Among them, the strongest competitors are Cai Zhong and Cai He.
At present, the two of them looked like apart, secretly competing with each other, and winning over the Cai clan leader... In just a few days, the entire Cai family was disturbed by them.
Although Cai Mi has a bit of reputation in the Cai family on weekdays, she is a female after all, and it is okay for ordinary things. However, when she encounters major issues that are related to the direction of Cai's family, she can only stand aside.
After Cai Mi finished speaking, some tears flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"As soon as Degui died, these brothers began to cause trouble in the Xiao Wall. Fortunately, Xiangyang City was not allowed to make decisions. Otherwise, I was afraid that the brothers would have been killed. How could such a person give the foundation of the Cai family to them!"
Liu Qi gently stroked Cai Mi's back and comforted her. After a while, Cai Mi stopped sobbing.
Liu Qi pulled her aside, found a stone to sit down, and asked Cai Mi, "Sister, in your opinion, who is the most suitable person among the Cai family to be the head of this family?"
Cai Mi bit her lips and said angrily: "One, there is no kind person, I don't think anyone can take it as a big deal."
Liu Qi asked, "Among Degui's brothers, are the legitimate brothers, the two of them as the leader?"
Cai Mi sighed, "The two of them are the ones who are most qualified to inherit the head of the family. However, this time I understand that these two people are not magnanimous people, and they cannot even tolerate a child of the age of the general. If the Cai family is in their hands, no one can tell what it will become in the future."
Liu Qi said thoughtfully: "What about Brother Wu? I think he is introverted and calm and unwilling to compete with others. What if he inherits the position of his family? "
Cai Mi shook her head and said, "It's impossible... Brother Qian is born in a vassal and does not have this qualification."
Liu Qi smiled and said, "If you are qualified or not, don't say much, I just want to ask Sister, what do you think of the ability and temperament of Brother Wu?"
Cai Mi thought carefully for a while, and said, "For me, although Xun brother is not as capable as Degui, he has a calm personality and is not ostentatious. He is humble and cautious in advancing and retreating. Although he is not enterprising enough, he has enough success... In this chaotic era, if the Cai family wants to preserve his foundation, he really needs a family member with his personality."
Liu Qi laughed when he heard this.
Cai Xun once accompanied him to the north to protect the king with Kuai Yue, and later represented Cai Mao to settle in Nanyang County. Although he had no achievements, his success was that he was calm and calm enough...
Of course it is also obedient enough.
"I also think that if my younger brother inherited the position of family master, it would be much better than Cai and Cai He and others." Liu Qi said slowly.
Cai Mi shook her head and said, "Young man, I didn't tell you, my brother Xun is a concubine, it's not possible."
"Why can't it be?" Liu Qi raised his eyebrows gently and said, "Gongsun Zan in the Gongsun clan in western Liaoning was also a concubine, but now he has been granted a marquis twice. In the past, he was also a marquis, and he was also a marquis. Among the Yuan clan in Runan, Yuan Shao was also a gangster, but over the years he has been prosperous and his reputation is growing, and his reputation is far superior to Yuan Shu. This gangster is not an excuse to not be able to accomplish anything."
Cai Mi looked at Liu Qi in surprise, her beautiful eyes full of surprise.
After a while, Fang listened to Cai Mi and said slowly, "Why do I think the young man's implication is that he wants to interfere in the affairs of the Cai family's establishment?"
Liu Qi waved his hand and said, "I am not a member of the Cai family. How can I interfere in the affairs of the Cai family's father-in-law? At most, I am just going to support those who I really like. I like Xun's character. I am willing to use such a person, but whether he can become the Cai family's father-in-law has nothing to do with me."
Cai Mi narrowed her eyes and said, "Take it serious?"
"When did I cheat you sister?"
Cai Mi thought carefully for a while before saying, "Actually, thinking about it carefully, you have really lie to me a lot over the past few years... you even cheated on me."
Liu Qi thought in his heart that this woman was unreasonable... It would be fine to say that she would deceive others, but her body was obviously what you offered to you, okay?
...
In the main hall, more and more people came to pay tribute, all of whom are famous and famous in Jingzhou.
The three elders of the Cai family, who are the highest in seniority, have also arrived.
The three elders of the Cai family, Cai Cheng, Cai Tong and Cai Li, all came here, and in terms of seniority, they were one more senior than Cai Feng.
Cai Mao, Cai Zhong, Cai He and Cai Xun are all their grandchildren.
The three elders of the Cai family sat in the middle of the main hall, looking at the people who were bustling with people to pay tribute, and the three of them showed thoughtful expressions on their faces.
The three of them have experienced great troubles for a long time, each of them is over 60 years old. After experiencing the fourth generation of the Cai family, these three elders did not feel too much pain about Cai Mao's death, but just felt a little sad.
Who should be elected as the next head of the family?
Cai Tong slowly stroked his white beard and said to himself: "Cai Zhong, Cai He, Cai Zhi, Cai Qiu, Cai Xi... The most qualified candidates are these juniors. What do you think of them? Which one can take on the heavy responsibility?"
"Their sharpness is too obvious, and they are not calm enough... The position of the family official is still not yet determined, and they can't even tolerate the wife and children of an old master. They are too anxious... none of them are tolerant." Cai Cheng shook his head and sighed.
Cai Li sat on the ground, crossing his crutch in front of his knees, his tone a little cold: "The Cai family is prosperous in Jingzhou, and the position of this official family is crucial. You should not be taken lightly, but you should not be hasty and arbitrary because of rush. The measure in this situation needs to be carefully grasped."
