Volume II . True or Fake Chapter 123 Funeral

There is a large cemetery area in the northwest of Longcheng.

Because this cemetery is located at the junction of urban and rural areas, according to the upcoming Mengjia Declaration, the future villages will be gradually transformed into new small and medium-sized cities to improve the people's happiness index.

As a result, this already inexpensive cemetery area is now even more expensive.

Lin Xu and Ouyang Luo got out of the car and groped their way forward in the crowd of traffic and crowds that could squeeze people to death, and finally they found the hall dedicated to paying tribute to the souls of the dead.

This hall is white, and it is decorated in a low-key atmosphere, with the kind of pomp and circumstance of mourning some big person, but the two of them looked around and saw few with sad expressions on their faces.

The age is not so happy, but everyone's faces are peaceful, or some have a little bit of excitement hidden under the table...... This is not very compatible with the luxurious coffin parked not far away.

"They...... Are they all Meng Hui's family? Lin Xu obviously hadn't seen such a big scene, and he was a little surprised to see it.

Ouyang Luo smiled and sighed: "Ah, it looks like ...... The direct and the collateral and the collateral and the collateral or have only met once, in short, those who can have a little relationship are here. ”

Lin Xu couldn't help but laugh out loud when he heard this, it seems that this person has been locked up for a few days and his nature has not changed: "...... There are so many people, do you want to give him a call? ”

"No, I think with his character, he should hide near that coffin and weep silently now." As he spoke, Ouyang Luo slapped Lin Xu on the back: "Let's go, go over and say hello!"

"Do you want to ......" Lin Xu sighed, always feeling that Ouyang Luo's attitude didn't seem to be very good when he participated in this kind of white thing, but before he could correct it, this person directly pulled him left and right and turned right for a while to the coffin.

To the left and right of the coffin are wreaths, in front are incense tables for worship, behind which are photographs of the deceased and an overview of past glorious deeds, as well as a shrine.

The two washed their hands and wiped them under the guidance of the steward, then took a bouquet of white flowers, tore off the petals little by little and put them into the designated water container, and then shook the utensils three feet above their heads to pour the water and petals into the artificial living water next to them, and then took a bouquet of blue flowers and put the flowers on the incense table after three minutes of silence - it was done.

There wasn't much in the program, but Lin Xu did a bumpy job, of course, in the end, he still relied on the gourd to draw a scoop and completed the matter under the strange gaze of the steward.

"You're here." Immediately after that, Meng Hui came out of nowhere, startling them.

Lin Xu was afraid that Ouyang Luo would laugh and joke inappropriately when he saw his old friend, but this time, to his surprise, Ouyang Luo actually stepped forward and patted Meng Hui's shoulder in a serious manner.

"Condolences."

"Thank you." Meng Hui also patted Ouyang Luo, and then bowed slightly towards Lin Xu.

Lin Xu nodded at him a little embarrassed, very nervous in his heart, he had prepared a lot of words of concern and comfort in advance; But now seeing Meng Hui's face that was just a little haggard but not sentimental, those words suddenly felt that there was no need to say them.

"Uncle Ouyang is here too?" Meng Hui obviously didn't want to pay much attention to Lin Xu, so he turned his head and asked Ouyang Luo directly.

"No, something happened to them these days, they're too busy to come for the time being."

Meng Hui nodded.

Ouyang Luo glanced back: "Why are you alone?" What about your eldest brother and your old man? ”

"Big brother's company has an urgent matter to deal with and just left, my dad, there." As he spoke, Meng Hui raised his chin, Ouyang Luo and Lin Xu looked at the situation, and at this moment, the next chairman was surrounded by all sides.

Ouyang Luo laughed out loud: "Ha, it's really hot and cold, you see, I'm still the best for you."

The corners of Meng Hui's mouth picked slightly: "It's all taking advantage of my second brother's funeral."

Ouyang Luo nodded and teased: "If you want to say that, then wouldn't you be a failure?"

"Failure?"

"There are only three of us idlers here. Xiao Xuxu and I are here to see you, you are the main master. ”

Meng Hui understood what Ouyang Luo meant, what the other party wanted to say was nothing more than the people in the hall, he and Lin Xu were here to make soy sauce, and he was the master here, but none of his masters took the initiative to have a relationship with him.

Meng Hui looked at Ouyang Luo's slightly smiling eyes quietly: "My second brother likes to be clean, let's go to the back room and talk."

Then, without waiting for the two to follow, it was useless to turn and walk away alone.

Behind the wall of the spiritual tablet is a small room, which is supposed to be for people to rest for a while.

It was bustling outside, and there was no one here, Meng Hui invited the two to sit down, and wanted to pour a glass of water, but he didn't want the tea in the pot to be gone.

Fortunately, Lin Xu's eyes were bright enough on the side, and he took the initiative to take the things and fill them with water before the second lord got angry.

"Meng Qichao is dead, you don't seem to be sad at all." Ouyang Luo looked at Lin Xu's back catching the water, leaned back and sat down on the nearby sofa.

Meng Hui asked rhetorically: "Then how should I express my sadness?" Crying with you in your arms or crying on the coffin?"

Ouyang Luo's mind immediately flashed these two images and couldn't help but shudder, if Meng Hui could do that, he might think that he was possessed by an evil thing.

At this time, Lin Xu had already taken the water, and without waiting for the order, he took the initiative to fill a cup for the two of them and himself.

Meng Hui seemed to be in a better mood when he saw the heat bubbling in the cup, but there was still a lingering tiredness in his eyes: "That afternoon, the second brother was killed when he took his sister-in-law out for a meal. When the news reached my dad's ears, he almost fainted. ”

Ouyang Luo comforted: "...... No one could have expected such a thing. Is there a suspicion? ”

"The most likely thing that can be suspicious of this kind of thing is the hostile relationship that arises from business competition.

As you know, since my second brother took over the gold and silver mining industry, he has been expanding the market.

It's okay to say in our country, after all, there are ten major families supporting and no one dares to do anything to him, but it's different when he goes out of this door. ”

"So you suspect a foreign competitor?"

"It's just speculation that there is no evidence. I just think it's the most likely, and it's hard for us to catch the murderer. ”

"Then what did your old man say?"

"What else can I say? In these extraordinary times, more things are better than less. Do you think a public figure will be praised for taking care of these trivial things in front of big things, or will he be more popular for taking advantage of the big things?"

"......" Ouyang Luo and Lin Xu looked at the teacup at the same time, silently thinking about it.

"It's impossible for too many people to look into this matter. So in the end, it may not be over, and the good ones will have to be delayed for a few years. ”

"I see, you want to say that this is one of the many sorrows of 'Royal'. There must be a valid reason to take the helicopter in the hospital, and now the dead person has to behave as a sacrifice for his life and forget to sleep and eat. ”

After that, Ouyang Luo glanced at Lin Xu: "You have caught up, do you want to do an interview, and help us complain by the way?"

Lin Xu glanced at Ouyang Luo and said nothing, he couldn't participate in this kind of thing.

Ouyang Luo said again: "Then I am more concerned about the company in your second brother's hands and the unterminated project, who is in charge now?"

"My dad will take it back first, and then distribute it uniformly. I don't have as many resources as my big brother, and in the end, it is estimated that the big brother will take over. ”

"That's not necessarily, it didn't take long for your family to sit in the country, and Old Man Meng's body was not very tough, and it would be great for two or three years to enjoy it.

In the end, I have to hand over the matter to the two of you, if your brother is in power, he will not have time to take care of the industry, maybe you will make a fortune!

Or are you going to fight for it too?"

"Forget it, I'm not interested in politics. My ideals are as superficial as yours. ”
