Chapter 242 Taking the Deed (1)
The head of the Jin family passed away, and the news spread throughout Jinghe City in just a moment.
Even the old man and them all knew it.
Tao'er was extremely anxious, but she didn't dare to say anything to the old man or them.
Sohe and Dongli only knew that Chuxue had left with the second master of the Jin family, but they didn't know the details.
"This child is really worrying. What is her relationship with the Jin family...?"
Both of them are extremely smart people. Although Chuxue didn't say anything, they had already seen some clues.
"Don't worry, since there are people following you, nothing should happen. As long as they are fine, let's leave the rest aside for now."
Sohe sighed. Although he was worried, it was useless to worry.
Dongli sighed, "I saw that the head of the Jin family was in good spirits this morning, but now he is gone... The new head of the Jin family has not been chosen yet, so I'm afraid there will be chaos in the Jin family." But it has nothing to do with them.
I will leave Jinghe in two days.
"The son of an old friend, now that I have caught up, I always have to go to the incense sticks to send them away. It may have to be delayed for a few more days. He is also a pitiful person. He, as the head of the family, has only existed in name only in recent years. Mostly, the old lady is taking care of it.
Although the new head of the Jin family has not yet been chosen, there should not be much chaos. The old lady is not a woman who can be easily influenced by others. If the other members of the Jin family want to cause trouble, they can't do anything for a while."
Sou and Ben don't like to comment on other people's affairs, let alone gossip behind their backs, but they just want to say a few words when the topic happens to be brought up.
"Sir, what you are saying is that the old lady of the Jin family is not an ordinary person. However, the Jin family is such a big family, and the position of the head of the family cannot be vacant for too long. This family head dispute is inevitable."
"This is true...the younger generations of the Jin family don't understand it, and they don't know who the next head of the family will be..."
Sohe and Dongli chatted for a few words and ended the topic. In fact, both of them were a little worried about Chuxue, and they felt uneasy when they didn't see anyone.
The scene inside the Jin Family Eight Treasures Pagoda is somewhat unexpected.
I thought there would be all kinds of treasures hidden here, but I didn’t expect the tower to be so otherworldly...
The internal space of the eight-story tower is not particularly large. Each floor is filled with various books. Chuxue took a quick look and found that the books were divided into categories and each floor was different.
Like a huge library, a treasure house of knowledge, Chuxue didn't touch these books, she just glanced at them, looking for what her mother left for her.
Until we got to the sixth floor, there was just a desk with a box randomly placed on it.
Chuxue looked around, and opened the box regardless of where it was. Unexpectedly, there was actually the so-called deed in the box. The content was the same as Chuxue knew. The signature was the Jin family seal and...
Yuan Xiyin, probably, Chu Xue has never seen it anyway.
"This...this is..."
Chuxue generously handed the deed to Jin Xincheng to read. Jin Xincheng looked cautious and took it with both hands and looked at it eagerly.
Chuxue couldn't help but sigh, her mother was so casual...
"There really is a deed. So...are you really...do you also have the clan order in your hands?"
The person in front of me... is the new head of their Jin family!
With this deed, the key to the Eight Treasures Pagoda, and the clan order, even if others don't believe it for a while, they can't deny it easily!
"It's indeed in my hands!"
Chuxue didn't hide anything and admitted it openly.
Isn't this birthday gift that her mother gave her too... casual? It really felt like she was born with a golden key in her mouth.
But Chuxue was thinking more about why the old lady wanted to harm her mother and her own daughter...
"Jin Xincheng has met the head of the family!"
Jin Xincheng suddenly waved his robe and saluted Chuxue.
Chuxue was stunned for a moment, then she quickly came to her aid and said, "I...no...are you being too hasty?"
Chuxue was somewhat dumbfounded.
The head of the Jin family...just needs this paper deed, a key and a token...that's enough?
"With this contract, you are the head of the Jin family!"
Jin Xincheng is serious
Looking at Chuxue, his attitude was very respectful.
Chuxue breathed out, "Based on this? I am the head of the Jin family? Have you ever thought about why those who harmed my mother back then wanted to harm her? Could it be because of this deed? The future master of the Yuan Dynasty, Jin
The future head of the family, any title is deadly enough. Now I am holding these things and suddenly running out to tell everyone that my mother is the Jade Concubine and I am the child who should have been burned to death in my mother's belly. Who will believe it? Or
I said, there are few who are willing to believe it. There is no record of my birth in the palace. Those who followed my mother into the palace are all dead. There is no evidence of their death!"
"You look like your mother..."
"So what? Maybe in their mouths, me being born like my mother will become a bargaining chip for my ulterior motives, right?"
Not everyone wants her alive as much as the two brothers do.
She didn't believe that the "uncle" in front of her couldn't figure out the key point of this, and he was just temporarily confused.
Sure enough, after Chu Xue finished speaking, Jin Xincheng lowered his head in silence and became calmer.
"The last head of the Jin family died unexpectedly. My mother died unexpectedly. What about...my uncle? He was really weak. There was no specific cause of the disease. He was dragged to death just by saying he was weak...I don't know why you believe it, but I
I find it unbelievable. The water in the Jin family is too muddy! I didn’t know my life experience until I was ten years old. It would be a lie to say that I have any feelings for the Jin family. I wanted to get involved in the Jin family’s affairs, but...
There are some things I can't pretend to be deaf and dumb about, such as my mother's death... From all aspects, the old lady's plot should be the Jin family. She has controlled the Jin family behind the scenes for so many years. She must have had a plan in mind when choosing the new master of the family.
, First of all, as the head of the Jin family... I cannot let her get her wish."
"you…"
Jin Xincheng looked at Chuxue blankly. He knew that this girl was unusual, but he didn't expect that she could be so calm at such a young age and see problems so clearly. His two girls could not compare to her.
"Let's go up and take a look. Shouldn't we want some light? We can't stay here for too long."
After Chuxue finished speaking, she turned and went upstairs.
Jin Xincheng followed silently, but for a moment he couldn't answer.
When they reached the seventh floor, Chuxue spoke again, "Ordinarily... I should call you uncle, but I'm not used to it at the moment, so I'll call you Mr. Jin. Mr. Jin, do you think the Jin family history book will be in it?"
Chuxue just talked about it to save everyone from embarrassment.
Maybe she is really a cold person.
"You... you can call me whatever you want! I have never seen the history books of the Jin family..."
Jin Xincheng couldn't describe the feeling in his heart, but her reaction made him feel real.
"Probably... I haven't seen it before, so let's take a look together! I'm very curious too!" The Jin family's rules were of no use to her.
There is also a huge desk on the seventh floor, and there is also a wooden box placed on the desk. The box is a bit big, and the history books should be inside.
Chuxue was about to open the wooden box, but... the box looked unlocked but could not be opened.
Jin Xincheng stared blankly at the "daring" Chuxue. The history books of the Jin family...only the head of the Jin family can read them.
"Need a clan order..."
Jin Xincheng reminded him blankly.
Chuxue frowned, "I forgot to bring it with me. I'll look at it later. Let's go up and light the lamp."
