Chapter 109 The Patriarch's Storm

The old lady got up quite early. As soon as Zou Yi walked into the yard, she saw her lying on her back in a wheelchair and breathing. This was a simple breathing method that Zou Yi gave her. Although she could not absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth like a person who practiced the internal skills, it could also play a role in strengthening the muscles and body.

"Grandma, your breathing technique is almost as good as the Grandmaster."

Hearing his grandson's teasing, the old lady's eyes were not open and her breathing was not stopped. She just smiled and waved.

When Zou Yi came to his side, the old lady opened her eyes, looked at her grandson beside her, and said with a caring look: "Have you eaten breakfast yet?"

"No, I'm here when I get up." Zou Yi nodded with a smile.

"Your sister-in-law is doing it, it will be fine in a while."

As he said that, the old lady pulled Zou Yi up and sat beside her, and said with a serious look on her face: "Yi'er, tell my grandmother the truth, is your master a god?"

After she asked this, Zou Yi was obviously stunned. He didn't understand why grandma had such thoughts, and it was rare to be serious. However, he still replied with a smile: "Grandma, there are no gods in this world, and those are all fabricated."

"but......"

Zou Yi changed his voice and said seriously: "Master is much older than you."

"oh?"

The old lady said curiously: "Then how old is your master?"

Zou Yi pretended to be mysterious and shook his head for a long time. Just when the old lady couldn't help but pat his arm, she replied with a smile: "Master, he is over two hundred years old this year."

"Two hundred years old?"

The old lady read out word by word, her eyes filled with incredible expressions.

After a long time, I came back from my shock, but saw the old lady whispering mysteriously: "Yi'er, there is something I want to tell you. Originally, this matter should have been told to your uncle and elder brother, but your grandfather also explained it before leaving. If the Zou family is hopeless for revitalization, this will be passed on, and only the patriarch will know it; if the Zou family is hopeless for revitalization, it will be cut off."

Zou Yi was a little confused and said with a puzzled look on his face: "Grandma, logic is that my grandfather has left, and the position of this clan leader should be the uncle who takes over, right?"

The old lady shook her head and said, "Your uncle is not young anymore. Do you know this? And I was in poor health at that time. Seeing that the Zou family was about to break up, I thought I didn't need to say anything about this."

"What about the eldest brother? The next patriarch must be him." Zou Yi still didn't understand why his grandmother insisted on telling him.

"Not necessarily"

He looked at Zou Yi with a profound meaning, and the old lady shook her head and said, "The next patriarch is not Jiankang."

"Who is that?"

"It's you"

"I?"

At this moment, Zou Yi was completely confused.

"I told your uncle about this and he agreed." The old lady then added another sentence, obviously she wanted to completely implement the matter.

"Even my uncle agrees?"

Zou Yi had a bitter face and didn't know what to say for a moment. What's going on?

Half a cup of tea passed, and the old lady pinched Zou Yi's palm and said solemnly: "Yi'er, this matter is settled, it's the last thing that grandma can do for you while she is alive."

Seeing that my grandmother had even said this, Zou Yi had no idea and nodded as a default.

Zou Yi knew in his heart that his grandmother actually wanted to compensate the mother and mother. As long as he took over as the patriarch, he would not be able to say anything about his identity.

Seeing Zou Yi nodding, the old lady also smiled with relief.

In fact, the old lady thought much more than Zou Yi. Now the Zou family is only Zou Rongsheng, Zou Jiankang and Zou Yi. Among these three, Zou Rongsheng is old and almost at the age of enjoying his old age. The important task of revitalizing the Zou family naturally can only fall on Zou Jiankang and Zou Yi.

Zou Jiankang has a good heart, but unfortunately he has joined the army and has devoted himself to the country in his entire life. The Zou family’s revitalization cannot be counted on him. Looking at Zou Yi, although he is still a student, as a member of the Chinese Medicine Federation, it is also a rock. If he can guard the Zou family, the word revitalization may be really hopeful.

"Yi'er, after a while, your uncle will add your name to the genealogy. At that time, you will take the genealogy over and there is a mezzanine between the first page and the cover. When you see what's inside, you should know what's going on."

Seeing that Zou Yi was still looking at him with a puzzled look, the old lady shook her head and said, "Don't ask me, I have never opened the genealogy, so I don't know what is inside, grandma."

"Mom, it's been breakfast. Hey, Xiaoyi has been here so early. Come and have breakfast together."

Liu Shulan's arrival interrupted the conversation between the two. Although she was not keen on the position of the clan leader, after the old lady said this, he was a little curious about what was hidden in the genealogy.

Because they were going to worship their ancestors and open family genealogies, Zou Jiankang arrived home last night. It has been half a month since he treated his grandmother last time. When they met again, the two of them were very happy, talking and laughing. Speaking of which, the Zou family has not been so lively for a long time.

Just after breakfast, Zou Ju came to Siheyuan staggeringly because she wanted to worship her ancestors, so she didn't wear the colorful clothes today.

The time for worshiping ancestors was set. Seeing that the time had not yet arrived, the whole family sat in the living room.

The old lady coughed, then spoke, "Everyone is here today, I have something I want to say in advance."

"The boss is 63 years old this year? At this age, he has already rested at home to enjoy his happiness. The Zou family has a lot of burden, so don't run around again in the future. Today, worshiping ancestors is not just about adding Yi'er's name to the genealogy, but mainly selecting the next patriarch. Although the Zou family is now in a small population, as long as there are still people, this rule cannot be abolished."

"Choose the patriarch?"

Zou Ju's eyes unconsciously floated on Zou Jiankang.

"After discussion with me"

The old lady took a breath and continued, "The position of the clan leader should be for Jiankang, but Jiankang's identity is quite special now, so he can't take over. Since this is the case, the boss and I unanimously decided to hand over the position of the clan leader to Yi'er."

"What, leave it to him and let him be the patriarch?"

Originally, when Zou Ju had already felt a knot in her heart when she heard the old lady discussing with Zou Rongsheng alone and not letting her participate. When she heard this, she was stunned and suddenly exploded like a hedgehog.

"Mom, I don't object to Zou Yijin's genealogy, but I firmly disagree with letting him be the patriarch."

Zou Ju said indignantly: "If dad was still alive, he would definitely not agree."

"Then who do you want to be the patriarch?" The old lady glanced at her coldly.
