Chapter 34: The Funeral of the Zhang Family
The recent South Washa has been an eventful one.
The sole heir of the second family, the Zhang family, died unexpectedly.
Morgue for several days.
After family deliberation, it was decided to hold a funeral from the 27th.
The funeral lasted three days.
On the third day, the body will be buried in the ancestral grave of the Zhang family.
From December 24th to yesterday's 26th, it was rainy and continuous.
Only on the morning of the 26th was the weather clear.
It rained again in the afternoon, and the Zhang family had no choice but to postpone the funeral again.
Today, October 27, 2019, is the day of the first month of the year of the pig.
On the twenty-ninth day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar, it is forbidden to break the ground and go to the beam; it is advisable to marry, sacrifice, bury and bury.
The sun is shining and the weather is clear.
The ancestral home of the Zhang family.
Early in the morning, he began to arrange for his subordinates to clean up, and made a good coffin in the best coffin shop in the city.
In the morning, it was transported to the ancestral house of the Zhang family, and the body that had been lying in the ice coffin for four days finally lay in its final resting place.
Father Zhang Mingwei's heart is settled, and the heir is finally going to be sent away.
It's just that his life was too miserable, and the makeup artist who was buried spent a whole day and wasted a lot of energy to restore his former appearance.
When it rained yesterday, Zhang Mingwei always felt frightened, and he didn't know why.
After returning from the headquarters of the Xiao Group, he witnessed the mortuary restoring his son's appearance step by step.
At that moment, he was even more determined in his desire to avenge his son.
No matter how many thorns there were on the road ahead, he had to do his best to kill Ye Tiance.
According to etiquette, they set up a dark lantern, which has been raised in front of the Zhang family's ancestral house.
Many of the Zhang family members wear linen and filial piety.
The faces of the Zhang family are extremely serious, and today is of special significance.
There are flower baskets placed on the road of the Zhang family's ancestral house, which is closed to pedestrians, and in order to be able to spend three days quietly, their arrangements are very thoughtful.
After all, it is the land of the family of Nanhua Mansion, and it naturally has a special meaning.
Strictly abide by the relevant ancient ritual laws, like the Zhang family is a noble rank, with their own etiquette style, which is left by the ancestors, and they are in awe of such things.
Prepared accordingly, the Zhang family sent their peers and juniors to conduct a vigil.
It stands to reason that Zhang Jiachuan should be buried as soon as possible, but the Xiao family is reluctant and helpless, so the Zhang family can only choose to wait.
It is only today that permission was given for burial.
That's it, it's still Zhang Mingwei's request to Xiao Jing when he took the opportunity.
The pain in his heart is best known only to him as a father.
But he is very sensible, this is the rule of the family circle, and you can't change it, unless you have enough strength.
Obviously, there is no hope for the Zhang family.
"Sir, the guest hall is ready. ”
The old housekeeper trotted to Zhang Mingwei's side and said respectfully.
Zhang Mingwei, who was dressed in a black tunic, looked into the distance with calm in his eyes.
"Arrange it, make some pastries, prepare tea. Zhang Mingwei said.
The death of his son is heartbroken.
But at the funeral of a big family, people from other families will come to mourn.
The corresponding number of gifts have been obtained, and tonight, the Yunding Chamber of Commerce and Xiao Jing will also arrive as scheduled.
He has already explained this matter and arranged them properly.
The son is gone, but the prosperity of the family is in his hands.
Reason allows him to control all emotions.
They all wanted to obtain the Zhang family's resources in Nanhua Mansion in this way.
The Maison is autocratic in its control of resources and generally does not share them with others.
"I only hope that all this I am in can avenge Jiachuan. Zhang Mingwei muttered.
The figures in the courtyard are constantly running, all busy entertaining guests, and it is naturally the Zhang family who comes during the day.
After the condolences are over, the evening will also be attended by the members of the big family.
Time flies and night falls.
The dark lamp illuminates the gatehouse of the ancestral house, and the sound of mourning is particularly tragic.
At six o'clock in the evening, the Xiao family sent someone to send a flower basket and a couplet, the meaning was clear and clear, and it would not arrive.
After dinner, Zhang Mingwei arranged for his subordinates to vacate their seats and prepare to welcome the guests of those big families.
daughter Zhang Wen also appeared, if it weren't for her, her younger brother would not have died inexplicably.
Since Zhang Jiachuan's death, she has basically lived in pain and guilt every day.
She is dressed in a black women's suit with a white flower on her chest and red eyes.
She looked at Zhang Mingwei, who was carrying his hands behind his back in front of her and looked sad.
"Dad, it's already arranged, just wait for their people to arrive. Zhang Wen whispered.
"Wenwen, tonight, their Xiao family and the Yunding Chamber of Commerce will come, ostensibly they are attending your brother's funeral.
But in fact, it is for the century-old foundation of our Zhang family. Zhang Mingwei sees this very thoroughly.
Zhang Jiachuan's death is not worth such fanfare at all, unless it is for the greater good.
Otherwise, Xiao Jing would not have gone out in person, and the two people from the Yunding Chamber of Commerce would not have come.
"What do you mean, Dad?" Zhang Wen was puzzled, she didn't understand the meaning of her father's words now.
"You don't want to cheat me here, your brother still needs to be tempered, but he has encountered an accident.
For today's plan, I can only take a step back and ensure that my Zhang family can survive. Zhang Mingwei sighed, and his heart was extremely melancholy.
The Zhang family is basically at the end of the road, and the contemporary head of the family has no hope for the independence of the court.
He couldn't fight Xiao Jing, whether it was energy, time or resources, he was inferior.
If he was more than twenty years younger, he would definitely be able to match this woman, but now, he can't.
After a hundred years, will Xiao Jing use all her strength to destroy the Zhang family?
That's all questions, he has to lay out in advance, this is a cunning fox.
I believe that only the green mountains are left without worrying about the lack of firewood.
"Wenwen, you must hold back, now you are the only hope for the Zhang family. His words were full of helplessness and meaning.
Zhang Wen, who listened innocently, was stunned.
The Zhang family and the Xiao family didn't have many chips in their hands.
She Zhang Wen is a center, the only use of linking their interests.
Zhang Mingwei took Zhang Wen and began to wait at the gate of the Zhang family's ancestral house.
Waiting for their Zhang family's most important guests today.
Sure enough, at seven o'clock, a black Rolls-Royce limited edition car appeared.
The license plate number is so familiar, and people in the wealthy circle know that this car is Xiao Jing's only car.
The driver hurriedly got down from the driver's seat, respectfully opened the rear door, and asked Xiao Jing to get out of the car.
Today's Xiao Jing is wearing a black women's suit, with a confident smile on the corner of her mouth, revealing a unique majesty.
The moment she walked out, she stood there, her eyes shining with a playful expression.
In her heart, it was actually decided that the Zhang family would become her vassal sooner or later, otherwise, she would not have come to participate in this condolence event in person.
Presumably Zhang Mingwei himself knows this, and doing this is to tell him who is the protagonist today.
"Master Xiao. A hint of meaning flashed in Zhang Mingwei's eyes, and finally he gave in to reality and greeted her with a smile.
When he chose to take sides, he had already predicted that he would be in this scene today, but it came a little too quickly.
"The demeanor of the head of the Zhang family is still the same, and even the people of the Yunding Chamber of Commerce have come to mourn, which is really rare. This statement has another profound meaning, full of murderous intent.
How could he, the old fox, not hear, just deaf and dumb.
In any case, he was unwilling to be suppressed by this woman many times, especially in their Zhang family's ancestral home.
This made him feel ashamed of the ancestors who founded the Zhang family.
Zhang Wen also followed behind her father, and her voice was small: "Sister." ”
"Hmm. Just a cold nod.
Glancing at Zhang Mingwei, she walked into Zhang's house with her own bodyguards.
This made Zhang Mingwei's face gloomy, but he didn't dare to attack in his heart, and he was very forbearing.
The femme fatale is the person Zhang Mingwei is most unwilling to offend, and he is afraid that the Zhang family will fall into a place of no return due to his impulsiveness.
In the final analysis, he still hopes that the Zhang family can be safe, his son has died, and his daughter has become his only heir, and that feeling is only experienced by himself.
But the daughter had to make sacrifices for the family, and those things were destined to be inescapable.
It belongs to the fate of the children of the extended family, and they must make retreats for the fate and interests of the family.
"Wenwen, go in and accompany your sister. Zhang Mingwei whispered softly, sighing in his heart.
The people of the Yunding Chamber of Commerce have not yet arrived, and people from other families have also come to the door.
After all, their forces are all watching secretly, watching the Xiao family's face and acting.
If the Xiao family sent those old housekeepers to the door, they would also choose juniors to appear, but if Xiao Jing came to the door in person.
There are some things that they can't help but come by, and if they don't come to the power of power, it will leave a bad impression on Xiao Jing.
Those stupid things that the old foxes don't do, and they're all paying attention to that, to keep the gun from hitting the first bird.
"Master of the Han family!"
The first to arrive was the Han family, they are both one of the four major families, and they are highly respected.
Xiao Jing appeared in the Zhang family, and the other two families also needed to express their position.
The people in power of these two families naturally want to come forward.
"Mourning changes ......"
The two gave each other hands, and they could see the helplessness in Zhang Mingwei's eyes.
On the bright side, it is also called the second family, and when a discerning person sees it, this second family will change hands sooner or later.
Even their descendants were inexplicably slaughtered, how could it be continued.
Sent to the head of the Han family, new people came again, they came from other families.
"Master Wang!" he greeted him, his heart full of sorrow.
I once dreamed that one day the rulers of these families would be able to enter the Zhang family and witness the prosperity of their family.
Although all these people in power are now in the Zhang family, that person is no longer there, what is the effect?
The thrill of supreme power has been lost, like the walking dead, and the only thought in his heart is revenge.
The black Mercedes-Benz came on a ride and stopped in front of the ancestral house of the Zhang family, and the two people in the car walked down, looking at the building in front of them.
The temperament is dazzling, and the two are Zhou Hong and Guo Zijin of the Yunding Chamber of Commerce.
