Chapter 2259: Changing family rules
"You traitor! Come here." Zhao Xiaozhi yelled at Zhao Heng.
Zhao Heng glanced at Xia Pengpeng and said to Zhao Xiaozhi: "Dad, why can't you agree with me and Pengpeng being together?"
"Why? Don't you have a point spread in your mind?" Zhao Xiaozhi asked.
"Just because she is a girl from an ordinary family? Just because Pengpeng doesn't have any background?"
"That's right! You are the heir to the Zhao family, and everything must be considered for the Zhao family. This is your mission!"
"If this is the case, I would rather not be the heir." Zhao Heng said stubbornly.
Zhao Xu saw Zhao Xiaozhi and his son quarreling.
He said to Zhao Xiaozhi: "Uncle Wu! Xiao Heng and Peng Peng really love each other. Although this is the family rule of the Zhao family, the rules are dead. We can't always follow the rules of the older generation."
Zhao Xiaozhi glared at Zhao Xu and said, "What are you talking about? Of course the ancestral precepts are meant to be followed, but are they just used as decoration?"
"I think that the Zhao clan members should hold a meeting to discuss and decide this matter together!"
"Okay! Then let the Zhao clan members discuss and decide together."
Zhao Heng said stubbornly: "I like Pengpeng, and none of you can even think of breaking us up. At worst, I just leave the Zhao family."
"you!......"
Zhao Xiaozhi raised his arm and went to hit Zhao Heng again, but Zhao Xu stopped him.
He said to Zhao Hengxun: "Xiao Heng, what are you talking about? Why don't you apologize to your fifth uncle quickly!"
Zhao Han said to Zhao Heng from the side: "Xiao Heng, you are the heir of the Zhao family, and this is your fault. How can you say such things? Apologize to Uncle Wu quickly!"
Zhao Heng behaved well and said to his father Zhao Xiaozhi: "Dad! I'm sorry. I've disappointed you."
"Follow me back to the Five Nationalities Village!" Zhao Xiaozhi ordered his son Zhao Heng.
Zhao Xu said to Xia Pengpeng: "Miss Xia, come with us!"
Xia Pengpeng nodded with a shy expression.
Zhao Han stepped forward and took Xia Pengpeng's arm, seeing her inner nervousness.
After Zhao Xu and Zhao Heng and his son walked away, they whispered to Xia Pengpeng: "Pengpeng, you don't have to be afraid! Brother Xu will help you."
Xia Pengpeng said "Hmm!", feeling extremely nervous and not knowing what to say.
After arriving at the "Five Nationalities Village", Xia Pengpeng entered the Grand View Garden like Grandma Liu. She couldn't help but be amazed when she saw that the "Five Nationalities Village" was built like a huge ecological park.
Compared with such a super family, Xia Pengpeng's family still lives in a small house of 60 to 70 square meters. In comparison, it is really like heaven and earth!
Xia Pengpeng felt a little humble. She only had a heart that loved Zhao Heng. Apart from that, nothing else was of use.
Although Zhao Han encouraged her and said that Zhao Xu would help her and Zhao Heng, Xia Pengpeng knew the identity gap between herself and Zhao Heng.
Zhao Han took Xia Pengpeng to his residence. Xia Pengpeng was on pins and needles, restless. She knew that the Zhao clan's discussion about her and Zhao Heng's affairs would determine their fate.
Zhao Han poured a glass of water for Xia Pengpeng and comforted Xia Pengpeng: "Pengpeng, don't be nervous! The people in the Zhao family are not that scary. It's just because of the clan rules that they don't agree with you and Xiao Heng being together."
"I know! I am the one who has favored your Zhao family. I also want to end my relationship with Zhao Heng, but his image is all in my mind. I really love him! I love him so much that I can't breathe, and I love him to the core of my bones!"
"I understand! But now that Xiao Heng is the heir of the Zhao family, he must be responsible for the Zhao family. Not for his own selfishness!"
"I'm so scared!"
Xia Pengpeng hugged Zhao Han and cried sadly.
Zhao Family Conference Hall!
In addition to the brothers Zhao Xiaotian, Zhao Xiaoyi, Zhao Xiaoli and Zhao Xiaozhi, there were also some important people from the Zhao family, plus the three brothers Zhao Xu, Zhao Gao and Zhao Heng, a total of twelve people.
Zhao Xu stood up and said, "Uncles, uncles! I called you here today to discuss something with you."
Except for the brothers Zhao Xiaotian, no one else knew what happened.
An older man asked Zhao Xu: "Xiao Xu, you are not an outsider here. If you have something to say, just tell me!"
Zhao Xu nodded and said, "I think there is one rule of the Zhao clan that should be changed!"
"Change the clan rules?"
Everyone looked at each other in shock.
"Xiao Xu, you'd better make it clear once and for all! Why do we need to change the clan rules? Which clan rules do we need to change?"
"That's it! Zhao Heng fell in love with a girl named Xia Pengpeng. This girl comes from an ordinary family. According to the rules of our Zhao clan, the heir must marry a well-matched girl. I think this clan rule is a bit unreasonable. Let's see what happens.
We can't change the clan rules to satisfy Xiao Heng and that girl Xia Pengpeng." Zhao Xu said.
After Zhao Xu finished speaking, Zhao Xiaotian said: "Let me express my opinion! The successor is unanimously elected by our clan. Therefore, we have every reason to believe that he will lead us Zhao clan towards a better future.
In the future, the world is changing so fast that it is no longer the world hundreds of years ago. This clan rule is really inconsistent with the development of our Zhao family, so I agree to abolish this clan rule."
Zhao Xiaoyi, as the current head of the Zhao family, then expressed his opinion and said: "I agree with the eldest brother's suggestion! In fact, our Zhao family has developed so far that we no longer need to strengthen our family through marriage. This family rule is very important to us.
For the people of the Zhao clan, it doesn’t mean much anymore!”
"I object!" Zhao Xiaozhi objected, saying: "The rules of the Zhao family cannot be changed just because I am Zhao Xiaozhi's son. In this case, I will become a sinner of the Zhao family."
"Lao Wu, let's discuss the matter, not against you and Xiao Heng!" Zhao Xiaoyi said.
Zhao Xiaozhi said stubbornly: "Objection! I am opposed to it!"
Zhao Xiaoyi looked around at the crowd and said, "I think Xiaoxu's suggestion is very good! After so many years, it's time to change our clan rules. Since everyone has different opinions, let's follow the most traditional practice of our Zhao clan.
, based on the principle that the minority obeys the majority, give everyone ten minutes to think about it. After ten minutes, everyone will vote by a show of hands. There are twelve people here, which means that with more than half of the votes, it will be decided not to change the clan rules."
Changing the clan rules is a big deal!
Naturally, the Zhao clan would not treat this matter as a child's play.
Everyone began to whisper and discuss in low voices.
Zhao Xu did not join the discussion, but observed the expressions of everyone present by looking at their faces.
His eyes and ears were sharp and he could clearly hear other people's whispers. What worried Zhao Xu was that the final decision on the vote fell on Zhao Han's father, Zhao Xiaoli.
