No one dared to speak. After the head of the family, Ryuzo took his seat, he beckoned Midong to step forward, and under the unsurprising gaze of everyone, he gently sat down in the position of the chief on the right. Although it is a living room, the seating layout is the same as that of dining, but the sofa arrangement is different.

Yongze, the family doctor, is very knowledgeable, standing on the side behind the old man in Longzang, the position is obvious but the sense of presence is weak.

The maid Reina, as well as the housekeeper and the others, are not in this room, at least it feels like this. The most basic quality of a good servant is that they are not visible to their master at all, but they can be called at once.

"I'm not going to talk nonsense with you."

Long Zang sat in the wide leather chair, his palm half-up, and pointed at the country: "Because you can actually guess something, what do I want to say?" ”

Midong silently glanced at the expressions of everyone in the audience, quietly waiting, and her grandfather would give the next sentence out of her mouth.

"You're right, it's a testament."

Speak up.

did not expect the audience to be shocked, dazed, stammered and many other reactions, everyone just stared at the old man Longzang, waiting for his follow-up speech.

"My Miyamoto family, since the official establishment of the third year of the Meiji era, is exactly 167 years old, and as of old age, it happens to be the head of the family for nine generations."

"The nine generations of the lineage have been consistent, as you know, according to an established principle."

"Vast possessions can only be concentrated in the hands of one person. Only by maintaining this high degree of authoritarianism can we ensure that a thriving family will not fall apart because of the competition for family property. There are too many years, too many examples, and the wisdom of my Miyamoto ancestors has not faded after a hundred years, which is really gratifying......"

The old man laughed, and the whole family laughed along.

Midong continued to watch silently, and Dr. Nagasawa stood behind, just politely making an arc; The fat-bellied uncle laughed dryly, and the chuckle of his son's straight man seemed to be slightly mocking; Shizuko's mother and Chiyo's grandmother were overjoyed, and even put most of their energy into not getting too excited; The young stepfather who has entered the family is obviously a lot more nervous, but as an outsider and a worthless third husband, it is normal for him to be nervous.

"The time has finally come again, it's time to give the will, and if it is determined early, it will also make you stable." The old man said slowly, deliberately hanging the appetite of everyone at this time, and then happily lifted the collar of the kimono, and the old palm reached into it and took out a letter.

At this moment, everyone seemed to have made an appointment, and the laughter all stopped, just staring at the letter.

"In this will, the principle of distribution of the estate is recorded."

Long Zang said slowly: "Including the identity of the designated family heir, and the elaboration of the share of other clansmen. It's not easy, the family has developed to the old generation, the scale has really expanded too much, so many things, it's really hard to divide them one by one~"

Everyone laughed again, and at this time, Grandmother Chiyo couldn't help it a little, and asked softly, "Then husband, are you going to announce the will now?" However, it seems that only Shizuko's family and Brother Longjing's family are present at this time......"

"Grandfather."

Before his grandmother finished speaking, Miyamoto Nao suddenly spoke, his voice was calm, and his speech was abrupt: "According to family tradition, the will is never announced until the head of the family is eighty years old, which is directly related to the longevity and health of the previous heads of the family. You're only seventy-two years old, and you called us out of the blue, is it because ......"

Following his words, those who were already excited and had not yet expressed their position, everyone looked at the gentle and standing doctor behind the head of the family, Toshio Nagasawa.

"Exactly, guys, I'm sorry."

The doctor nodded deeply, his face worried: "The daily physical examination in the past year has proved that the heart disease of the lord of Longzang is continuing to deteriorate, and although there is perfect medical care, no one can guarantee what will happen in eight years." I am now giving you a verbal certificate as a well-known doctor, and I can also present the diagnosis report to you if you need further evidence. Above. ”

"It's worse."

When the younger brother's Long Jing touched his forehead: "It's really an unlucky word, but if the eldest brother says that the wicked will live for a thousand years, they will definitely be fine." Like our father, although he also has a hereditary congenital heart disease, doesn't he still survive until he is 92 years old. I'm sure you'll be fine......"

The straight man seemed to want to laugh, but was overshadowed by Chiyo's grandmother's reproach: "Longjing! Is this the time to say such things!? ”

"Ah, Longjing just wanted to make a joke, it's okay, it's okay."

The Dragon Collector Master waved away all the commotion with a wave of his hand, and then looked at the girl beside him slowly.

Midong sat elegantly, completely uninvolved in the interaction between the family just now, when she saw her grandfather looking at her, she took the initiative to reach out and gently cover the back of his hand.

"You're right." Long Zang seemed to sit lazily, and said casually: "The position of the next head of the family, I plan to hand it over to Mozi. I thought that this child would be too stressed and refused. But it's good, but it's really good, it's really good, hahahaha! ”

He laughed and grabbed Mei Dong's palm: "Going out with my classmates for two weeks has made Mozi so sensible!" It's a little bit of a character or something.,Just let it get out of the way completely.,I announce to everyone.,The tenth head of our Miyamoto family.,It's Mozi! ”

After saying that, he himself looked up to the sky and laughed, and cheered his hands happily, so unhappy!

"Father, Father!"

At this time, the happiest person is Shizuko, who is almost crying, followed by her grandmother Chiyo, who is obviously holding back her excitement.

"Mozi, that's great!"

The young stepfather was even more ecstatic, and couldn't wait to say to Midon: "This is the supreme glory! ”

"Not at all!" Uncle Longjing was lying lazily on the sofa, holding a wine glass and said, "Who else can it be if it's not Mozi, right, thief!?" ”

The little uncle who was unfamiliar with the topic of "Hmm......", Miyamoto Nao, who was only twenty-five years old, still had a serious expression, and helped the silver-rimmed glasses frame: "It's really not unexpected, Mozi-chan's words." ”

The so-called thousands of people and thousands of faces, there is nothing more than this moment. As the party concerned, Mei Dong can be said to be extremely calm, just sitting calmly beside the current head of the family, looking at the different attitudes of these relatives with the same surname. Some cried, some laughed, some calm, some free, and the stepfather, who was not familiar with her at all, even began to pat her ass, as if this huge family fortune had fallen on him.

At this time, there were only five people at the scene, including the mother's family, the uncle's family, and the grandmother. If you really drag the so-called uncle, second uncle, and aunt's family to come, what kind of excitement will this small living room become?

Midong couldn't help it a little, and wanted to evoke a mocking sneer, but was gently stopped by her grandfather's behavior of raising his hand to calm the scene.
