If Guan Laosan wins, their family will not have any chance of survival.
Uncle Jiu didn't need to point this out, Guan Laoqi was also clear in his heart.
But therein lies the problem.
Guan Laosan can be ruthless and unjust, but Guan Laoqi cannot.
If he really kills these families, then he will become the same person as Guan Laosan.
"That's what you all think?"
Guan Laosan did not directly respond to Uncle Laojiu's words, but looked at the indignant tribesmen, "When Lao San and the others kidnapped me, why didn't you come forward?"
Why don't you stand up
This question is tantamount to reaching out and slapping someone in the face with a loud slap.
Why didn't these people stand up when Guan Laosan gained power? The answer is simply that they had the intention of following Guan Laosan to drink soup.
After all, Guan Laosan had the advantage at that time and gave them a super delicious pie.
It's a pity that Guan Laosan's pie cannot be fulfilled.
It is said that those who know the current affairs are heroes.
Even though most of the Guan clan have never gone to school and cannot read a few characters, this does not mean that they cannot analyze the interests in their hearts.
"Lao Qi, are you blaming us?"
When Uncle Lao Jiu saw that Guan Laoqi's simple words silenced the people around him, he quickly said, "Before, Guan Laosan and the others acted so fast that we didn't even react."
"From beginning to end, we are on your side!"
"Yes, seventh child, we even scolded third child!"
The elders in the clan who had scolded Guan Laosan before now started to speak.
"Lao Qi, I know you are a person who values affection and justice."
"But you can't ignore the future of most people in our clan for the sake of such disloyal and unjust beasts."
"That's right, Lao Qi, if you want to be a good person, that's your business."
…
The elders in the tribe really spoke in a tone that was very tough, as if Guan Laoqi didn't agree with their way of dealing with Guan Laosan and the others, so he did something unjust.
Guan Laoqi said nothing. Looking at the faces of these once-familiar clansmen, he suddenly felt very tired.
He had never seen these people like this.
"I don't care about this!"
"I am no longer the leader of the clan. You can decide for yourself!"
Guan Laoqi, who was discouraged by a group of old people, simply put down these words, turned around and left.
He had always felt that the unity of the Guan clan in Lingshui Village was the first among many villages in Sanhe Town. But at this moment, Guan Laoqi suddenly understood that their Guan clan was actually the same as other clans.
"Lao Qi, what do you mean?"
"Niece, you can't give up!"
"Guan Laoqi, what do you want to do?"
"Brother Qi, don't be angry!"
"You are the clan leader on this matter. You can do whatever you say. We all listen to you!"
When Guan Laoqi said that he didn't care and would not become the clan leader, everyone became anxious.
Of course, this urgency is not because of how good the clan leader Guan Laoqi is, but because of the relationship between Guan Laoqi and Lao Xu's family, which cannot be compared with other families in the clan.
Lingshui Village is not a small one, and the Guan family makes up the majority.
But in the entire village, the ones with the best relationship with Lao Xu's family are Guan Laoqi's family and the Yue family.
The Yue family is also an outsider in Lingshui Village, although they came earlier.
At this juncture, if Guan Laoqi gives up his choice, they can't count on the Yue family to come forward. After all, people from the Yue family are not stupid.
Guan Laoqi looked at the sudden change in attitude of the clan members, and his mood became even worse.
"It's too bad!"
These are his people!
It was as if Guan Laoqi had seen his clan members clearly for the first time, and he felt extremely bad.
However, when Mr. Yue, who was not far away, saw this scene, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he was in a good mood.
This is human nature!
Even a husband and wife would go their separate ways when a disaster strikes, let alone an ordinary clansman
Did the Guan clan do anything wrong
On some moral level, they are indeed wrong.
But in life, one always seeks advantages and avoids disadvantages.
Everyone wants to live a better life.
Guan Laosan did all this, no matter if it was for the sake of becoming a successful person or for honoring his ancestors. The end result is the same, which is to make yourself live better.
The members of the Guan clan do this repeatedly in order to maximize their profits.
mutual affection
In the eyes of most people, everything must give way to interests.
It is precisely because of this that the word friendship is priceless.
Hearing the words of the clan members, Guan Laoqi was not moved at all. His only idea now is to bring everyone safely to the refuge mentioned by his ancestors, and then he doesn't care about anything else.
he. Not owed to anyone.
Whoever wants to be the leader of the clan can be the leader!
…
The incident involving Guan Laoqi was soon known to Mrs. Xu and others.
Knowing that Guan Laoqi was so angry that he chose not to become the clan leader, Mrs. Xu actually smiled. She didn't know what others thought, but she felt that Guan Laoqi made a wise decision this time.
"Mom, why do you think Uncle Qi's decision is the right one?"
Fu Bao felt that Guan Laoqi was too impulsive this time.
Mrs. Xu smiled slightly and said, "Silly girl, let me ask you, why does your seventh uncle not want to continue to be the patriarch?"
"No one listens to you?"
Fu Bao blinked.
Well, although she has lived two lifetimes, she must admit that she is still in kindergarten when it comes to understanding the complexity of the human heart.
"If you just talk and no one listens, it doesn't really matter!"
Mrs. Xu smiled and said, "Your seventh uncle, you are really sad this time. Because, whether it is Guan Laosan or others, they are plotting against him and using him as a gunman!"
Guan Laosan got into trouble and became a successful person. If he lost, Guan Laosan would definitely intercede for him, at least to protect his family.
Even if Guan Laoqi had not thought of this before, he has thought of it now.
As for the rest of the Guan clan, they were just like cowards, swaying here and there, never firming up their position. For people like them, Guan Laoqi is just a tool in the front.
When they needed Guan Laoqi, they supported Guan Laoqi, as if it was Guan Laoqi who couldn't do it.
However, when danger comes, these people will not help Guan Laoqi to come forward. They only wave the flag and shout, and don't care what Guan Laoqi thinks.
"Mom, if Uncle Seventh doesn't become the clan leader, what should we do about this matter?"
Fubao was also troubled in his heart.
To be honest, she felt that people like Guan Laosan deserved to die.
But Guan Laosan and his family probably didn't know. From a certain level, they should not be implicated in what Guan Laosan and others did.
But thinking about the problem from another angle, it is another way of saying that under the avalanche, no snowflake is innocent. (End of chapter)
