Chapter 171 Take over as the head of the family

During these three days, the Li family has been practicing and holding meetings.

The purpose of the meeting was not to discuss whether Li Hongxiang would be given up as the head of the monk. They believed that this was a foregone conclusion. What they wanted to discuss was the issue of restoring the rights of the clan elders.

The head of the family is the leader in leading the development of the entire family and has great power both outside and inside. In order to avoid the head of the family being a member of the clan, the emergence of the clan group.

The clan elder group does not want to restrict the head of the family, but plays a role of supervision. Once the head of the family does something unfavorable to the family, the clan elder group has the right to stop it. If the head of the family’s mistake is too serious, there is also the right to impeach the head of the family.

The Li family had declined to a certain extent before, and the clan elders were extremely disappointed and had long stopped taking care of the family affairs.

However, since the Blood Demon Technique, the hope that the Li family can revive, a flame has also ignited in their hearts.

Thinking that after the Li family was glorious, they could restore their previous glory, so how could these old tribes continue to delegate power?

At first, Li Hongxiang opposed the proposal of the clan elders, but later his third uncle said directly, "What is your identity after the position of the head of the family was passed on to Zhijin?"

He woke Li Hongxiang up in one sentence. He was not used to the fact that he was no longer the head of the family, although he is still in the position of the head of the family.

Once the position of the head of the family is passed to Li Zhijin, he will become a member of the clan elder group and he will consider the issue as the clan elder.

So, in three days, the old guys discussed a plan.

There is no intention of restricting the head of the family, but it gives the clan elder group more rights, at least in major matters, the clan elder group has the right to speak...

The Li family’s old house is decorated with lights and colors. In addition to the solemn and solemn ancestral hall, it is full of festiveness everywhere.

The replacement of the head of the family is a big event. In addition, after Li Zhijin becomes the head of the family, he will receive the full support of Li Mengshi. This is an opportunity for the Li family to become glorious, so the Li family naturally celebrates happily.

When Li Mengshi and the other two arrived, they were facing the extremely enthusiastic Li family, which made Li Mengshi a little uncomfortable, let alone Shang Xiaowen, who had encountered such a scene for the first time.

Along the way, the Li family was very surprised. When did Li Mengshi have an extra sister?

There is no way. Judging from the appearance of those who don’t know the truth, it is not an exaggeration to say that Li Mengshi and Shang Xiaowen are twins.

Although it was strange, no one dared to ask. Now they all knew that Li Mengshi was the key to the Li family's takeoff, and no one dared to make trouble at will at this time.

It was still the previous auditorium, and Li Mengshi and the other two were brought here directly, and Li Hongxiang and the clan elders were already present.

Li Zhijin and his wife are also here. Now they are completely proud. Apart from Li Hongxiang and the clan elders, there are not even those who dare to speak loudly to them.

Seeing Li Mengshi coming, Lin Wanhua wanted to call her over, but she didn't expect that when she saw Shang Xiaowen, she was stunned on the spot.

Otherwise, this woman's brain circuit was different, and her face changed instantly. She turned around and she glared at Li Zhijin.

"Okay, you old guy, you actually raise a mistress outside. You're so hiding so well. You really have it!"

Li Zhijin's forehead was instantly covered with black lines, and he whispered: "Shut up, am I such a person? Pay attention to the occasion and listen to what Mengshi said."

Lin Wanhua opened her mouth, and finally just glared at him in anger and didn't say anything.

There is no way, this is the Li family, and the ancient style is serious. In their eyes, it is normal for men to have three wives and four concubines, so let alone raise mistresses outside.

Not only did they not see Li Hongxiang and the others were not surprised, but they looked regretful. There was no way, who told Shang Xiaowen to be a girl? If it were a boy, the Li family would have an extra branch.

Yes, the Li family not only has a serious ancient style, but also prefers boys over girls. This can be reflected in the family rules of passing on men but not girls.

Li Mengshi and the other two quickly came to Li Hongxiang's side. After some greetings, they knew that everyone was curious about Shang Xiaowen's identity, and Li Mengshi explained softly.

"This is my god sister. Her name is Shang Xiaowen. Don't worry, I've checked it. She has nothing to do with the Li family, but she looks very similar to me."

With one sentence removed everyone's doubts, the atmosphere immediately became different, and everyone's focus shifted from Shang Xiaowen.

There are countless modern technological means, and they believe that Li Mengshi will never make any mistakes. Since she has no blood relationship with the Li family, she will naturally no longer pay attention to her.

Li Hongxiang said with a smile: "Since you are here, you're a guest, please sit down. Meng Shi, grandpa has made a decision, and now I will announce it in front of all the Li family."

Speaking of this, he cleared his throat and attracted everyone's attention. "Now I announce that from this moment on, Li Zhijin will take over as the head of the Li family. Li Zhijin..."

Although he was mentally prepared, Li Zhijin was still a little excited at this moment. He hurried to his father and bowed and said, "Father, the child is here!"

Li Hongxiang looked at him kindly and nodded with a smile, "Okay, okay. Don't worry about what happened before, from this moment on, you... are the head of the Li family!"

After saying that, he took out a black token, Zhou Fan glanced and instantly judged that this thing had a history of at least several hundred years. It seemed that the inheritance of the Li family had indeed been quite long.

"With witness to the elder clan group, Li Zhijin received the order from the head of the family!"

One of the clan elders stood up, Li Hongxiang's third uncle, Li Zhijin's third grandfather.

He said with a serious expression: "On behalf of the clan's elder group, I announced that the 23rd generation head of the Li family was passed down to Li Zhijin. I hope you can do your best to lead the Li family back to its former glory!"

Li Zhijin knelt on one knee, raised his hands above his head, respectfully fulfilling the order of the head of the family and making a vow at the same time.

"I, Li Zhijin, hereby swear to work wholeheartedly to develop the Li family and devote myself to it until my death!"

“Wow…”

After the solemn ceremony, the congratulations from the Li family. Regardless of his previous attitude, Li Zhijin is now in that position, and everyone must treat him respectfully. Even the clan elders cannot present the old people's poems in formal occasions.

After Li Zhijin made his speech, he announced the opening of the banquet, and the rest of the time was to eat and drink.

Of course, that refers to the rest of the Li family. There is something to say about people at this table.

Li Hongxiang is now the youngest clan elder, and he is Li Zhijin's father, so he naturally wants to say something.

"Ahem... Mengshi, now your dad has become the head of the family, look..."

Li Mengshi smiled and said softly: "Grandpa, don't worry, I will definitely spare no effort to support my dad, but..."

"Um?"

This turning point surprised Li Hongxiang and the elders of the clan, not knowing what she was going to do at this time.

Li Mengshi turned her head and looked at Zhou Fan, "Grandpa, in fact, Xiaowu and Han Zhihua are both Zhou Fan's younger brothers. It's just Zhou Fan's words to ask them to help. You can tell Zhou Fan directly what you want."

“…”

Li Hongxiang and the elders of the clan were speechless.
