Chapter 398: Inheritance Continues
Chapter 398: Inheritance Continues
The large floor-to-ceiling windows let the sunlight shine in to the heart's content, and the sound of the waves lapping under the coast outside the window blows into the room with a faint sea-like breeze, bringing a bit of coolness to everyone and adding some life to this luxurious seaside mansion.
In contrast to the lavishly decorated mansion, there is a large set of mahogany furniture with a strong antique style in the living room on the top floor.
Of course, with Nalan Hongbo's knowledge, it is easy to recognize the true value of this set of ancient furniture at a price of 'millions'.
At this moment, in addition to him, there are three people in the room, one old, one young and one young.
These three people are all descendants of the 'Liang family', and they are also the most influential people in the entire Liang family.
"Hongbo, did you really decide to do this? You must know that there are many people who want to beat your 'Chengbo Group' over the years, so you have to think about it carefully. And your father doesn't know about it, right? β
The old man of the Liang family in the middle looked at Nalan Hongbo, who was sitting in the lower seat, and said slowly, he didn't particularly agree with Nalan Hongbo's decision.
But because of the ancestral teachings, he can only act according to the rules of the family inheritance.
"Uncle Liang, you know my situation. Now that the woman knows about the child coming to me, I am afraid that it will be detrimental to the child if it drags on. In this situation, I can only rest assured if I shelter her under your wing. As for my father, the only thing to do is to cut first and then play. β
Hearing the old man's words, Nalan Hongbo looked at him and said in a sincere voice.
Major matters related to this kind of family inheritance generally require the presence of the descendants of the two families before they are decided, and this time Nalan Hongbo sΔ« decided to officially pass on the 'Dragon and Phoenix Longevity Lock' to Nalan Qing, and the matter was also done behind the family's back.
Fortunately, he is the holder of the dragon and phoenix longevity lock of the previous generation of 'Nalan Clan', and according to the ancestral teachings, he has the right to continue the inheritance of the family to the next generation of bloodline heirs.
"If that's what you've decided, well. Now is the time for you and Liang Yi, and we old guys are just playing a role of supervision. It's up to you to really decide. But it's up to your father to know, and you'll have to think about it. Don't let the time come to ruin the centuries-old relationship between our two families. β
The old man known as 'Liang Bo' heard Nalan Hongbo's words, and he sighed and agreed.
As he spoke, he looked at his eldest son Liang Yi and grandson Liang Yimin beside him.
These descendants are the vitality of the entire family, and if they are not careful, they are likely to lose the entire family.
Therefore, when it comes to such a major event, we must be very cautious.
"Brother Nalan, I heard you say that this girl's boyfriend also has a 'Dragon and Phoenix Longevity Lock'. So where are the other guardians of their family? You didn't find out about the news? β
After the old father finished speaking to Nalan Hongbo, Liang Yi asked.
Regarding the other 'Dragon and Phoenix Longevity Lock', the 'Liang family' also showed great interest.
Families like theirs have some ancient records, and there are some situations that the 'Nalan family' does not know very well.
The hidden guardian families behind these 'dragon and phoenix longevity locks' all have a certain inheritance. And these major families have intricate relationships, which have existed since ancient times.
When Nalan Hongbo heard Liang Yi's question, he shook his head and said with a wry smile: "I have just come into contact with this young man, and I don't know much about it. But according to him, there is no family in their family to support them. I don't know much about the specifics, but he's also a doctor. After they come later, if you have something in common, you may be able to ask him. β
Seeing that the current principal of the 'Liang family' showed great interest in Wang Ming, Nalan Hongbo briefly told them what he knew.
"Wang Ming? Why does this name sound familiar? I think I've heard it somewhere. β
Liang Yimin, the only one standing in the room, frowned and whispered after hearing Nalan Hongbo's words.
He was the only one in the room with the lowest rank, so he stood aside and poured tea and water for these elders to serve the shì.
As the most outstanding grandchild of the 'Liang family', Liang Yimin has long been designated as the successor of the next generation, so a major event like today's inheritance is only for him to watch from the sidelines, so as to lay a foundation for the future.
"That's right. Uncle Liang, don't talk about it for a while, just call me 'Lao Li', and don't let Qingqing, this kid, know my identity." β
Seeing Liang Yimin, who was about the same age as his daughter, standing aside and frowning and muttering, Nalan Hongbo remembered this question and hurriedly admonished a few people.
"My old man's memory is not so bad, you can rest assured."
Nalan Hongbo's nervousness and worry made the old man of the Liang family laugh, and the solemnity and heaviness in the original room were also reduced a little.
β¦β¦
After a while, Nalan Qing and Wang Ming were taken by special car to the villa next to the coast.
"Is this Lao Li's house or his friend's house? Lao Li doesn't seem to be simple. β
As the servant who led the way in front walked towards the villa, looking at the layout and decoration of the villa, Nalan Qing, who was pulling Wang Ming, couldn't help but whisper.
"This ...... I don't know very well, but when I meet Lao Li, you can ask him. Aren't you very close to each other, there are things he may say to you, but he may not say to me. β
While Nalan Qing asked these words, Wang Ming was also looking at the structure of this villa. Facing Nalan Qing's question, Wang Ming said ominously.
"Sir, they're upstairs, you can just go up directly, two guests."
By this time, the servant who had led the way had already led the two into the villa. Standing at the top of the stairs, he led the way for Nalan Qing and the others.
After nodding and thanking the servant, Wang Ming took Nalan Qing upstairs.
β¦β¦
When Nalan Qing and Wang Ming appeared in the living room on the top floor, the eyes of the old and young people of the 'Liang family' converged.
Of course, the one that these young and old people pay the most attention to is Nalan Qing
Secondly, it was Wang Ming who was standing beside her.
After looking at Nalan Qing for a while, the old man of the Liang family nodded with satisfaction.
Looking at this girl's face and spirit, she is also a dignified and virtuous person.
Thinking of this, the old man of the Liang family exchanged glances with Liang Yi beside him.
It is not child's play to have an ancient inheritance of two worlds that are both prosperous and one is lost, and if you are not careful, it is likely to involve another family.
Therefore, after exchanging glances, the old and young of the Liang family felt that their first impression of this girl was okay, and if they further understood that this girl was indeed useful, then they would also support Nalan Hongbo's decision.
β¦β¦
And Nalan Qing, who didn't know it, felt a little flustered under the gaze of everyone, and subconsciously, she moved closer to Wang Ming.
Sensing Nalan Qing's discomfort beside him, Wang Ming gently wrapped his hand around her waist to encourage and comfort her.
Nalan Qing's subtle action did not hide from the people of the 'Liang family', and the eyes of the old man of the Liang family turned to Wang Ming.
Nalan Hongbo, who was sitting on the side, deliberately did not speak, quietly observing the delicate situation of the first meeting between the parties.
There are some things that he can pave the way for Nalan Qing.
But there are some things that need to be done by Nalan Qing, a child, after all.
β¦β¦
Wang Ming saw that the people in the room had been looking at them, and at this time these people turned their attention to him again. Facing everyone's gaze, Wang Ming smiled and nodded at a few people.
"Lao Li, do you think we are here and don't introduce everyone to each other? It's so uninteresting. β
Looking at Nalan Hongbo, who had been sitting on the side without speaking, Wang Ming spoke out to break the deadlock.
"You see that I have forgotten to introduce you to each other. Come on, come on, this is the old man of the 'Liang family', 'Uncle Liang'. This is Liang Yi, my good brother......"
was said by Wang Ming, Nalan Hongbo suddenly stood up and made some introductions to Nalan Qing and the others.
At that moment, everyone greeted each other for a while before they sat down.
"Miss Nalan, I heard that you have a 'Dragon and Phoenix Longevity Lock', and the words 'Nalan Clan' are engraved on it, I don't know if it's convenient to take it out for us to see? This ancient lock has a lot to do with our family. β
After everyone sat down, Liang Yi asked Nalan Qing for a moment.
"It was a token of engagement from my father to my mother, and the only thing he left me. Do you know the whereabouts of my father? β
Because of what Wang Ming explained before he came, Nalan Qing took out his 'Dragon and Phoenix Longevity Lock' and asked Liang Yi and the others at the same time.
Hearing Nalan Qing's words, the old and young of the 'Liang family' glanced at each other, and then at Wang Ming and the others, their faces became a little weird.
"Little girl, you don't have to be in a hurry. Let's take a look at this ancient lock, and then we'll talk about your 'Nalan' family. β
The old man of the Liang family explained to Nalan Qing with a smile, and then took over Nalan Qing's longevity lock from Liang Yi.
The old man of the Liang family put the ancient lock in the middle of the table, and Liang Yi and Liang Yimin also came over to watch carefully.
After repeatedly and carefully looking at the lines on the 'Dragon and Phoenix Longevity Lock' and the surname engraved, the old man of the Liang family nodded lightly.
It seems that this 'Nalan Clan's dragon and phoenix longevity lock does not seem to be a forgery.
"Please come out to check the lock"
Carefully and carefully placed the longevity lock on the table, the old man of the Liang family commanded in a deep voice.
Hearing the old father's words, Liang Yi nodded and walked towards the inner room.
After a while, he walked out slowly with a white yΓΉ box in both hands.
Wang Ming has been sitting with Nalan Qing on the side, quietly watching the movements of the 'Liang family'.
However, when he heard the words of the old man of the 'Liang family', he raised his eyebrows, and when he saw the old man opening the yΓΉ box very cautiously and respectfully, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
In the box, it is a pair of 'dragon and phoenix ancient needles'
