Chapter 349 - Chapter 349 Chapter 349 Gu Family Successor

Chapter 349: Chapter 349 Gu Family Successor Chapter 349: Chapter 349 Gu Family Successor Choking up, she said, “Great Grandma, don’t be sad, don’t be sorrowful. From now on, this bracelet will protect you in Grandpa’s place!”

Lady Yu looked at the pink pearls on her wrist, her eyes brimming with tears, but her face bore a happy smile.

Qiaoqiao had spoken to her in advance to prepare her psychologically, and she truly was prepared.

She had not expected that a casual joke made in front of Kunkun years ago would be taken seriously by him.

He actually carved the Jade Flute and then cultured pearls inside it.

Qiaoqiao was right, the bracelet was Kunkun’s filial piety, and she couldn’t always be clinging to memories and yearnings.

She hoped that Kunkun would soon be on the Reincarnation Path and also hoped that she could live a few more years to see Qianqian and Zishu get married and establish themselves.

She thought that when that time came, she would leave this world with a smile on her face.

And why did Gu Qiaoqiao choose to make such a high-profile move today?

She just wanted to use the Jade Flute to create a stir.

Even without the strong support of Gu Yajing, Gu Qiaoqiao had ways to cause Gu Cheng to lose face completely.

She never intended to live in harmony with Ning Wanru’s family.

In the eyes of others, it was about tearing off the mask, which would be safer.

And now her wish had been fulfilled.

Gu Qiaoqiao was very happy.

Her smile was bright and radiant.

Standing on the stage, she resembled a beautiful sunflower.

Qin Yize wanted to pull her down but clenched his hand and restrained himself.

And Old Patriarch Gu looked at the Jade Flute and the pearl bracelet with a sorrowful gaze, his heart filled with a tumult of emotions.

Even though Qiaoqiao had briefed him in advance, he still hadn’t expected it to be so shocking.

Sadness mingled with an increasing revulsion for Gu Cheng.

Had he not given enough to him? No, he had given plenty.

Both he and his mother were too greedy.

Perhaps this was his failure.

He had raised Gu Cheng, but failed to teach him well.

Yet, even without adequate teaching, Gu Cheng had grown up in luxury, and because of the contributions he had once made, Elder Shen always protected him in secret.

Thus, the Gu Family had not been implicated too much.

Otherwise, he would have been ruined long ago.

And young Gu Cheng had not suffered at all.

So, who taught him to steal?

A thief within one’s own household is indeed hard to guard against.

The Old Patriarch quickly regained composure, and in front of everyone, he announced Gu Qiaoqiao as the successor of the Gu Family.

If this had been ancient times, it meant that Gu Qingfeng was passing the position of Clan Leader to Gu Qiaoqiao.

In modern terms, it was the inheritance of artistry and the role of custodian.

There had always been talk of “South Ye and North Gu.”

The Ye family from the South dominated everything south of the Da Jiang, specializing in micro-carving.

The Gu Family from the North, above the banks of the Da Jiang, was most famous for jade carving.

As the saying goes, things come together and eventually part, and after a separation, they eventually reunite.

The Northern Gu Family was no exception. After the fire at Yubao Square in Jinling City, they completely lost half their territory.

In recent years, due to the reform and opening up, many antique shops sprang up like bamboo shoots after a rain.

Consequently, although the Gu Family still led the Northern antique and jade carving business, it couldn’t compare to its past.

The industry in recent years has been of mixed quality.

The situation of the Southern Ye family was similar to that of the Gu Family.

Therefore, everyone was not too shocked by the Old Patriarch’s announcement.

After all, she was Kunkun’s granddaughter, whom he had taught from a young age. The Gu Family had only her with that talent. Who else could inherit the position if not her?

And nowadays, children had no interest in these things; they yearned for a different kind of life.

Nevertheless, they all now knew that Gu Qiaoqiao was the designated successor of Old Patriarch Gu.
