When Hao Yansen spoke like this, everyone thought the old patriarch was truly on his deathbed.
He wouldn't make it through the night, would he?
Hao Zaiye's expression instantly turned to one of deep sorrow, "Is our eldest uncle truly at his end? He is the head of our family; how can he just leave us?!"
"The old patriarch's health has always been poor; I was worried something would happen to him, and now it indeed has..."
"If the old patriarch really is gone, Asen, our entire clan will be counting on you!"
"Yes, from now on, you'll be in charge of everything in the family. If there's anything you need help with, just tell me!"
"The same goes for me. After all, you are still young. If you need manpower, just command me!"
"And me..." These people had already started to express their loyalty one after another.
They also sought to seize this opportunity to leave a good impression on Hao Yansen, so they might gain more benefits in the future.
