Qiu Qianyu hurried over. As a junior mber of the Qiu Family, how could she dare to trouble the three elders of the Qiu Family, who held the highest status, to serve her personally?
"Honorable elders, Xiaoyu is unworthy and lacks ability. How could I trouble you? Please, have a seat! Xiaoyu should be the one serving you tea!"
Qiu Qianyu was a very considerate girl. She quickly brought over three chairs and poured three cups of tea, then invited the three elders of the Qiu Family to sit down.
However, in front of Zhao Tianda, how could the three elders of the Qiu Family dare to sit?
Qiu Qianyu quickly glanced at Zhao Tianda.
Zhao Tianda also did not dare to make the decision and looked towards Jiang Chuan.
So, all of the Qiu Family, with hundreds of eyes, focused attentively on Jiang Chuan.
Jiang Chuan gave a slight smile and gently nodded his head.
Seeing Jiang Chuan nod, only then did Zhao Tianda dare to nod, signaling the three elders of the Qiu Family that they could sit down.
The three elders of the Qiu Family felt incredibly honored and surprised!
Being able to sit and drink tea with the great Mr. Jiang, this honor could be bragged about for a lifeti!
Therefore, the three elders of the Qiu Family looked at Qiu Qianyu with eyes full of gratitude.
At the sa ti, the three elders felt very satisfied with Qiu Qianyu's performance.
Initially, the three elders were always hesitant about who could beco the successor of the Qiu Family. After today's events, the balance in their hearts naturally tilted towards Qiu Qianyu.
"Good!"
"Very good!"
"Excellent!"
The three elders repeatedly nodded at Qiu Qianyu, their eyes full of praise.
This scene naturally enraged Old Mrs. Chang Lan and Qiu Deming's family.
However, in such a setting, they dared not express dissatisfaction.
Could they not see that the three elders, who hold the highest status in the Qiu Family, were being utterly respectful to Mr. Zhao?
If they were truly bold enough to co forward at this mont, they would really be courting death.
"I never expected that this country bumpkin actually knows Mr. Zhao; what a stroke of dumb luck!"
Qiushi's mother, Zhao Ling, glared at Jiang Chuan from the crowd, seething with hatred.
If it were under ordinary circumstances, this difficult and domineering woman would have gone up and scolded Jiang Chuan to his face by now, but on such an occasion like today, she dared not.
At that mont, on the other side, the atmosphere was harmonious.
A group of big shots was sitting together, drinking tea happily.
They literally turned the ancestor worship ceremony into a tea party.
Of course, these big shots wouldn't really co to honor the Qiu Family ancestors. Their status far exceeded that of the Qiu Family. Co to worship the Qiu Family ancestors?
That was simply an impossibility.
The Qiu Family was naturally well aware of this.
For these people to co was already a great honor for the Qiu Family.
As long as they sat here, drank tea, and said a few words, the status of the Qiu Family would be greatly elevated.
At that mont, Jiang Chuan stood up, holding Qiu Qianyu's hand.
"Xiaozhao, everyone."
"Today is the Qiu Family's ancestor worship day. As the son-in-law of the Qiu Family, it is, of course, my duty to offer incense with my wife to the ancestors of the Qiu Family and pay our respects! So, please excuse us for a mont!"
After Jiang Chuan finished speaking, he was about to lead Qiu Qianyu to worship the ancestors of the Qiu Family.
As soon as Jiang Chuan stood up, Zhao Tianda imdiately followed suit.
He glanced around, then spoke loudly, "Everyone, since Mr. Jiang is going to worship the Qiu Family ancestors, such a rare opportunity cannot be missed by us."
"Let's all go together and join Mr. Jiang in worshipping the Qiu Family ancestors!"
After Zhao Tianda finished speaking, he took the initiative to walk ahead of Jiang Chuan and Qiu Qianyu, carrying the incense burner and laying out the kneeling mats for them.
The three elders of the Qiu Family were almost scared to death upon seeing this.
Given their status, how could they dare to let Mr. Zhao serve them for the ancestor worship?
The three elders of the Qiu Family hurried to get involved themselves in fear.
Certainly, the juniors in the Qiu Family wouldn't dare let the three elders do it themselves, either.
Therefore, many stepped forward voluntarily to assist.
Finally, the incense was lit, and the kneeling mats were laid.
Jiang Chuan and Qiu Qianyu stood in the center of the crowd, first lighting the incense to pray, then bowing to and paying kneeled respects to the ancestors of the Qiu Family.
Given that Jiang Chuan's identity was the son-in-law of the Qiu Family, performing the kneeling ceremony for the Qiu Family ancestors was perfectly appropriate and expected.
However, Zhao Tianda actually knelt behind Jiang Chuan as well.
This scene truly terrified the Qiu Family mbers!
