Chapter 228: Competition (Fourth Update)

"Aunt Qiong, thank you, no wonder you have asked me to study medical skills since I was a child, and now I know your good intentions, you wait, when I rescue my parents, I will definitely go to the Kongtong faction to find you!" Duanmu Hibiscus carefully put the letter back into the safe.

Because An Qiong told her in the letter that she must not let the rest of the Duanmu family know her true thoughts about her parents, otherwise, the Duanmu family would never pass on the "Medical Codex" to her.

"But...... Grandpa's medical skills are so good, why didn't he go to test his medical skills with the chief disciple of the Medicine King Valley and save my parents?

Moreover, the Medicine King Gu is the originator of medical skills, and their medical secrets must be very powerful, can our Duanmu family's ancestral "Medical Codex" really compete with it?

Why wouldn't they pass it on to me if they knew I was going to save my parents?"

This series of questions was constantly replayed and connected in Duanmu's brain, but there was no answer for a long time, and in the end, she gave up thinking about these things, and instead turned her attention to tomorrow's inheritance ceremony.

"Tomorrow is the Inheritance Ceremony, how can I get the Inheritance?"

The inheritance rules of the Duanmu family have been extended for more than a thousand years, and each generation is passed on to only one child, and this child will also serve as the successor of the next head of the family.

And the rules of the inheritance ceremony are also very simple.

It's about showing what they've learned, and articulating their aspirations and goals, to see how many people can support them, a bit like a democracy campaign abroad.

The difference is that the supporters of the Duanmu family inheritance are only qualified by those in the upper class, and the higher the status, the greater the weight.

However, this ritual is only a superficial formality, and it is fundamentally based on the connections I have made in private.

If you want to ask why the Duanmu family has such rules, the root of it lies in the essence of their family, doctors, who treat diseases and save people, so what they have to face is people outside.

And although this society preaches equality everywhere, in fact, everyone knows that there is no place where there will be real equality, the weak eat the strong, the strong survive, the weak eliminate, the law of 28 will always exist, whether they want to admit it or not, the 20% of the people will always have more resources and the right to speak.

Therefore, the successor of the Duanmu family, who is actually chosen is more recognized and accepted by the upper class.

Duanmu Hibiscus had no idea of competing with other siblings for this inheritance before today.

And now, she is bound to win.

However, she really didn't have any faith.

How do she know any successful people?

And generally this kind of thing, it is her parents and elders who pave the way for Zhang Luo, how can she, a seventeen-year-old girl who is still in high school, have such connections?

The only thing she could think of was Zheng Ye!

This is also her only connection, the biggest connection.

But...... This very important matter to her, in Zheng Ye's eyes, may not even be insignificant, will he be willing to help?

Just as she hesitated, the door of her boudoir was pushed open.

Duanmu Hibiscus was startled, the girl's boudoir is a little more private, and generally people with a little quality will knock on the door first and only come in when they are allowed to do so.

And the other party was so rude, so rude, so disrespectful, and she broke in.

She didn't have to look to guess who it was.

Duanmu Kun, the eldest son of Uncle Duanmu Hibiscus, is five years older than Duanmu Hibiscus, and he doesn't learn all day long, and he has all the wine and wealth!

And he is also the most likely heir of this generation of "Medical Codex".

There's no way, who made his father Duanmu Xiong, since Duanmu Liang was imprisoned in the Medicine King Valley sixteen years ago, Duanmu Xiong has taken the position of the head of the family.

In the past ten years, he has been planning the inheritance ceremony for Duanmukun, and has made many dignitaries and dignitaries, and his connections are unparalleled!

"Hey, what the hell are you doing? Why don't you turn on the headlights? It's dark and scared to death, do my Duanmu family lack this electricity bill? Cut~" As soon as Duanmu Kun entered the door, he scolded.

"Yes, don't you know that there will be a lot of outsiders coming in the past two days? If you see it, you still think that we are bullying you without a father and a mother!" Duanmukun's own sister Duanmu Mulan also snorted coldly, and glared at Duanmu Hibiscus very jealously.

She must be jealous, who let Duanmu Hibiscus be the granddaughter of the Duanmu family with her, but Duanmu Hibiscus dumped her eighteen streets in all aspects.

She was jealous that Duanmu Hibiscus was three years younger than her, jealous that Duanmu Hibiscus was a hundred times more beautiful than her, jealous that Duanmu Hibiscus was half a head taller than her, jealous that Duanmu Hibiscus was 10,000 times better than her, and jealous ......

These two siblings have bullied Duanmu Hibiscus since they were young, and this is all because of Duanmu Xiong's relationship.

After all, there are a lot of discussions among the people below, and they all say that Duanmu Xiong only became the head of the family because of Duanmuliang's accident, which made the two brothers and sisters very faceless.

"What are you doing? Don't you know how to knock on the door?" Although Duanmu Hibiscus has been bullied by the two, he has never been soft, and he is not afraid of them.

"Hey, you fatherless and motherless ......" Duan Mulan immediately pointed at Duanmu Hibiscus to scold.

"Okay, don't say it, this card is 10 million, sit in my team tomorrow, I will be the head of the family in the future, I promise to find you a son at the richest level to marry, and you will be prosperous and rich for the rest of your life." Duanmukun reached out to stop his sister, and then flicked a bank card at Duanmukun.

There is also a rule in the inheritance ceremony of the Duanmu family, that is, if brothers and sisters support a certain person, it means that this person has high moral and medical skills.

Therefore, if a sibling who voluntarily abstains from voting votes for him, the weight of this vote is higher than that of a successful person in society.

And before this, everyone knew that Duanmu Hibiscus did not have the heart to fight for inheritance.

Therefore, Duanmukun came over to canvass first.

Of course, Duan Mulan had already abstained, and her vote had already been booked for his brother.

"10 million? Find me a rich second-generation husband? hehe~" Duanmu Hibiscus almost laughed, although she has no parents to take care of her, and she has no status in the Duanmu family, but the old man Duanmu Ji likes her very much, and she has never lacked money or something.

As for the husband, it's even more ridiculous.

Even if you are the president of the United States, even if you are the richest man in the world, what about it?

Can it still be compared with Zheng?

"When did I say I was going to give up the inheritance?" Duanmu Hibiscus said lightly.

"Ah!" As soon as Duanmu Hibiscus spoke, the Duanmu Kun brother and sister were stunned for a moment.

"What did you say? You didn't give up...... Do you mean that you also want to compete for inheritance?" Duanmulan said in surprise.

"Hahaha, I'm laughing to death, what are you doing? You don't look in the mirror, you don't even have parents, why do you compete?

Can you compare with me? Labor and management will tell you that now in the entire Beiliang City, two-thirds of the top 50 entrepreneurs are already on my side, and you still want to compete with me! Duanmukun is used to being mixed up outside, bullying the weak is commonplace, and he is full of swear words and even comes casually.

Well, there's still one more thing left, keep working hard, and stay up late to finish!
