Chapter 194: A Bunch of Hypocrites
What happened to the mother?
It can't be that something happened to her, right?
Seeing Lao Piping's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, Du Ang sighed in his heart, what he is most afraid of now is that something will happen to his mother, compared to Count McNuss, he has a deeper affection for the countess's mother, if his mother also has an accident now, Du Ang estimates that he may go crazy, and maybe he will do something unexpected and confused.
Du Ang's eyes were cracked, he was already dirty, but now he looked even more scared, Lao Piping was also startled, and hurriedly told Du Ang that the countess was fine, but recently, that one is called Vic? McNuss men, as well as several of the elders of the family who supported him, came to talk to the Countess almost every day, persuading her to give up waiting for Duon to return, and then start the election of a new family patriarch as soon as possible.
If Duang doesn't come back, it is a matter of course to determine the next patriarch of the family through the election, but according to the rules of the family, it takes a hundred days to wait, but Vic really doesn't want to delay any longer, he is afraid of long nights and dreams, and hopes to be able to hold an election as soon as possible, and then determine the position of his new patriarch, but if you want to conduct an election in advance, you must have the wife of the former patriarch, the Countess, nod, so they come to talk to the Countess every day, both soft and hard, hoping that the Countess can nod quickly, of course, Vic didn't explicitly say that he wanted to be the patriarch of the family, but kept saying that it was for the sake of the family's future, and the country could not be without a king for a day, and the same was true for the McNus family.
Of course the Countess knew this little calculation in his heart. In fact, if Du Ang is really no longer alive, she doesn't care who is the patriarch in the family at all, and she doesn't care, who she loves. What does it have to do with her, a poor widow? But not now, I have heard Laura make it clear that Duang is still alive and will rush back soon, then, the position of this patriarch is still his son's, for the sake of Duang's status and power in the future, no matter what Vic and those elders say, the countess just won't let go. Those brothers who got it were also helpless, so they could only come to the door every day day to grind.
They were members of the McNus family, and they were all people of status, and the Countess couldn't help but let them in. Nor can you fail to listen to them, just. What they say is their business. The Countess had made up her mind that no matter what they said, she would not let go.
In order for the Countess to nod and agree to the early election as soon as possible, Vic can be said to have a wrestling, promising and threatening. The good and bad words have been said, and the good hangs will directly tear the skin, and the countess is miserable and pitiful. In this kind of matter, although there are many strong servants in the family, and there are also loyal old family members like Lao Piping, but no one can help her say a word, because Vic's people are also members of the McNus family, and they are relatives of Count McNus in terms of blood relationship.
And today, Vic and a few shameless elders came again, in the conference room of the Earl's Court of McNus, launched a new round of language bombardment against the countess, the old Piping watched the master mother being bullied, and really felt aggrieved in his heart, he wanted to fight hard to say a few fair words, but the kind countess didn't want him to cause any unnecessary trouble, so he sent a message in advance, let the old Piping go out to buy something, the old Piping was reluctant, but the master's orders could not be ignored, so he had to obey the order and go out to buy, No, I just came back, and I met Du Ang at the door.
Lao Piping made a long story short, and told Du Ang about these things roughly, and Du Ang trembled angrily: Damn, what kind of relative is this? The father's bones are not cold, and he is far away, leaving his mother alone at home, they don't say that they come over to help their mother take care of the housework, but lick B's face and come over to play some tricks to force the palace, rely on ...... What kind of human nature is this?
Power?
Hmph, I won't give it to you!
Du Ang didn't say a word, took Federer and walked inside, Lao Piping knew that Du Ang was going to go to the conference room to find Vic and they reasoned, but seeing Du Ang's iron face, Lao Piping was really afraid that Du Ang would do something stupid and reckless under his impulse, he shouted a few words to Du Ang, but Du Ang walked faster and faster as if he didn't hear it, Lao Pi Ping was really not at ease, so he followed closely behind.
As soon as he reached the door of the conference room, Duang heard the voice of a hoarse man coming from inside.
"Nia, are you still not from our McNuss family? Are you still thinking about the interests of your family? Yes, Simon had an accident, we are all very distressed, Duang is missing now, we are also very worried, but, the family can't always be without a patriarch, if it drags on like this, what should the family do? So many people, young and old, are waiting, you can't chill everyone's hearts! ”
Another man's voice said, "Yes, Nia, you just nod and sign, and we'll choose the new patriarch first, huh...... It's a little unfair to Duon, but who kept him out of here? There's nothing we can do. ”
The third man's voice said, "It's not good for everyone that you're dragging it out like this, are you so sure that Duang will be back in a hundred days?" What if he doesn't come back? Isn't it time to hold an election? But at that time, what will the people in the family think of you? They will think that you are selfish, that you are clinging to power, that you are not thinking about the interests of the family at all, and at that time, alas, ......"
This is already a bit of a threat.
The fourth man said, "Nya, we are all bloodlines of the McNass family, so naturally we will not let you suffer......"
As soon as he said this, Du Ang really couldn't listen to it, these bitches raised all of them looked sanctimonious, and they kept saying that they were all for the sake of the family's interests, but in fact, it wasn't for the position of a family patriarch? For the power of the patriarch of the family? I bah...... That's a nice thing to say, but why don't I believe it, the McNus family can't play without a patriarch in just a hundred days? Those of you who are elders, can't you fulfill your obligations for the time being? It's just that if there is no patriarch for a hundred days, will the family completely collapse?
Damn, I can't stand it. These damned hypocrites!
Duang didn't care about any politeness, went straight over, kicked the door of the conference room open, and broke in directly with Federer.
All of a sudden, everyone in the conference room was stunned.
This is the conference room of Earl McNuss's Palace, a confidential place, even if the royal family members come, they must be informed in advance, who is so bold as to dare to kick in the door? Don't you want to die?
Look up. There were two people who broke in, one in front and one behind, tall and short, all dressed in rags and unkempt, and the short man had strands of hair and clothes. There was a disgusting stench from the stinking gutter all over his body, and the tall man had a vicious face. Butt naked. It's just that he has an animal skin around his waist, and a white monkey squatting on his shoulder, and the big iron rod in his hand is so thick and long that it's terrifying, is there such a person in the Bauhinia Empire? This is clearly a beast, a ferocious barbarian!
Vic was the first to stand up. Pointing at Duang's nose, he shouted, "Who are you?" Do you know what this place is? You're so daring......"
Before he finished speaking, the Countess on the other side had already stood up, trembling with excitement. Tears welled up in his eyes: "Duang, my son ......"
No matter what Duang becomes, but the intuition of mother and son will not change, no matter how miserable and strange his current appearance is, the countess will recognize her son in an instant, this is a mother's instinct, which no one can learn if they want to.
As soon as she said this, Vic and the other elders were all stunned.
This is Duon?
Are you kidding?
Although they were all relatives of the same family, they rarely came to Count McNuss's house for so many years, and the number of times they saw Duon was only a handful, especially that Vic, because he was only a side relationship, and before Count McNuss died, he had never even visited the gate of Earl McNuss's palace, let alone seen Duon.
I haven't even seen it at all!
And now, listening to the countess say that this is Duon, Vic's heart is full of apprehension, because he knows very well that now that Duon is back, he can rightfully inherit the position of the patriarch of the McNus family, and his patriarchal dream will completely come to naught, and the son will inherit his father's business, which is clearly stipulated in the family, even if his reputation is high, no matter how much he jumps up and down, there is no way.
Just give up?
No!
Looking at his appearance, it is clear that he is a beggar who came from nowhere? It must have been this stand-in that Nia's stupid woman had found from outside to stall for time.
Well, it must be like that.
Thinking of this, Vic shouted loudly: "Nonsense, how can you be Duon?" What evidence do you have? ”
Evidence?
Du Ang laughed angrily.
Mom B, in my house, you actually asked me for any evidence to prove my identity......
What do you think?
And at this time, several elders who had seen Duon also looked at Vic, revealing a look that you are really stupid.
The Countess rushed over desperately, hugged Duang, ignored the choking stench of his body, kissed him almost madly on the face and forehead, tears could not stop flowing, and muttered to her mouth: "Duon, my son, where have you been these days?" I'm so worried about you...... Great, great, Goddess of Light, let you return to me safely, my son, promise me not to leave me again...... Woowoo woo ......"
This poor woman was like this, whining and crying, this tragic situation made the elders who were born from the same root and the bloodline of the McNus family feel distressed after seeing it.
At this time, Lao Piping also hurried over from behind.
Although he was already running with all his might, but after all, he was old and frail, and he couldn't keep up with the footsteps of Duon and Federer, and there was not much to go, the old man was sweating and panting, and when he arrived at the door of the conference room, he held on to the door frame and began to breathe, and then happened to see the touching scene of the mother and son meeting, the old man couldn't help but leave tears.
They were here to express their feelings in a big way, and Vic over there couldn't help it, and the benevolent brother exclaimed angrily, "Oh my God, what if you were Duon? Look at the way you look now, like a beggar, how can the fate of our McNus family be in your hands? ”
As he spoke, he also looked at the few unkind-faced elders around him, as if he wanted to convince people with affection and reason, so that these elders all nodded, and could say with him that this kid named Duang was really too indecent, and he was not worthy of controlling the future fate of the great McNus family.
But who can toss with him?
These elders are all old and sophisticated masters, and none of them are fools who lack heart.
If Duang didn't come back, they would still be able to make a fuss with Vic, and quickly come up with a new patriarch of the family, which would also be considered a complete merit.
However, now that Du Ang, the main master, has returned, what are you still making trouble with?
It is reasonable to be reasonable, the son inherits his father's business, and the position of the patriarch of this family is all from Du Ang.
Pull it down, what else do you have to make a fuss about, if we make a fuss with you, maybe even we will go in with it.
Several elders were there to look at each other, but no one spoke.
Du Ang patted the countess on the shoulder: "Mother, I'll deal with it first, and we'll talk later!" ”
The Countess looked at her son with some concern, but after all she did not say anything to dissuade her.
He has grown up, and soon he will become the patriarch of the McNus family, so let him handle such a matter by himself, I believe he will be able to handle it.
The countess is not worried that Duang will suffer, although Duang is only a low-level magician, but after all, he is also a magician, and that Vic is an ordinary old man who is powerless, and it would be strange if Duang could suffer if he did it. The countess was just afraid that Du Ang would be too heavy in her emotions, and directly beat this old man to death.
After all, this is the blood relative of the McNus family, and if there is really any death, it will not be very good for his son's reputation to spread it. (To be continued......)
