Chapter Forty-Eight: The Mystery of Famous Paintings
After thinking about what happened a month ago, all the relatives of Lin Shanhe had already arrived at Shanhe's former residence, Yang Zixuan was lying on the bed and looking at the time on the clock in the room, it was now almost three o'clock in the afternoon. I don't know how long it will take for Steward Zhang to announce the news of the inheritance.
Thinking about these relatives she had just seen, Zixuan couldn't help but sneer in her mind. The feeling to her is that except for Lin Mu, almost everyone only has an inheritance in their eyes, and there is no such home.
But it's a bit strange to think back on the case from a year ago, including everything that this family just showed.
Two years ago, Lin Ziyuan committed suicide by jumping off the building, and then the company had a huge amount of money, as well as the relationship between Lin Xiaoyao Jingwen and Lin Zipei just now, Lin Zipei is not like a person who is short of money, with his conditions, there is no need to marry a divorced woman, let alone that he still has a child.
And the strangest thing is Dong Jiali's eyes on Lin Zipei, why is her eyes full of resentment when she looks at Lin Zipei. What kind of story does the two of them have? And then there's the most critical one. Lin Shanhe, why did his maternal grandfather leave such a strange activity. Make your legacy a puzzle before you die, and let your family solve it.
Looking at my grandfather's family, why did my grandmother leave the former residence of Shanhe to live outside alone. And the parents who never had in their memory, where were they, and did they really die as they heard? Why should I follow my mother's surname, and my mother should follow my grandmother's surname. These are questions that she has been wondering about since she was a child, but she has never found the answers.
Thinking about it, with the flow of time, I fell asleep unconsciously. Maybe I haven't had a proper rest since I got off the high-speed train, and the only time to rest was in the taxi that came just now.
"Miss Yang, Miss Yang!"
Woken up by a familiar voice, Yang Zixuan opened her eyes in a daze. In a trance, she saw that it was Steward Zhang, she got up and sat up, and looked at Steward Zhang:
"It's Steward Zhang, is it time?"
"Yes, Miss Yang, please follow me to the study on the second floor, according to Mr. Lin Shanhe's last wishes, I will announce the news about the inheritance to you."
"Okay."
"Steward Zhang, you go first, I'll tidy up a little and then I'll be there."
"But Miss Yang, do you know the place?" Steward Zhang was afraid that Yang Zixuan would not find a place.
Zixuan smiled: "Didn't you say that you were in the study on the second floor, when I went upstairs just now, I seemed to see the location of the study, rest assured, I won't be late." ”
"Uh-huh."
After Steward Zhang left, Zixuan went to the bathroom in the room to tidy herself up a little, after all, she had just fallen asleep, and her clothes were inevitably a little untidy, and this matter was related to her grandfather. Tidying up your outfit is also a sign of respect for your grandfather.
After taking care of her face a little, Yang Zixuan left her room and walked towards the location of the study on the second floor.
When he entered the study, his relatives had already done it on both sides of a long table in front of the desk in the study, Lin Xiao, Yao Jingwen, Lin Zipei sat on one side, and Dong Jiali and Lin Mu sat on the other side. And Steward Zhang stood at the long table, in the middle of the two groups of them.
But looking at this long table, whether it is color or appearance, it doesn't look like something that should appear in the study. Not only does it look obtrusive overall, but it is also inconvenient to place this long table in the study. It seems that the long table must have been temporarily moved in, and it was specially placed in this way to facilitate the telling of the inheritance.
Then the problem comes, Yang Zixuan secretly thought, Steward Zhang painstakingly placed a long table in the study, which seemed very abrupt, which may have been requested by his grandfather before his death, which means that this meeting on the inheritance must be held in this study. So what is the purpose of this?
Without waiting to think about it carefully, Yang Zixuan walked straight forward, and she saw that there happened to be a seat next to Lin Mu. She sat down beside Lin Mu, and then politely gave Lin Mu a nod and smile.
Lin Mu also responded.
But this scene happened to be seen by Lin Xiao, who was sitting directly opposite Lin Mu. She gritted her teeth, although she didn't say anything, the information revealed in her eyes and the expression on her face made people see her hatred and jealousy for Yang Zixuan and her cousin.
If it weren't for the fact that this matter about inheritance involved the family, he would have to stand on his father Lin Zipei's side, Lin Xiao would definitely choose to sit with Lin Mu, but because of the relationship between Lin Zipei and Dong Jiali, I don't know what happened between the two, they can only sit on opposite sides. And this also gave Yang Zixuan the opportunity to sit with Lin Mu. This is what Lin Xiao thought.
After Yang Zixuan sat down, she looked at the layout in the study, except for the long table that looked very abrupt, the interior of the study gave people a comfortable and natural overall feeling, in the direction of the study door, the bookshelf was full of books that her grandfather had read before his death, and there were various materials arranged by his grandfather Lin Shanhe on a desk.
In addition to the bookshelves facing the door, the other three sides of the study are famous paintings created by various famous artists at home and abroad. And judging from Lin Shanhe's ability during his lifetime, these paintings should be genuine, and they were bought by Lin Shanhe with a huge amount of money during his lifetime. These famous paintings are already very valuable, but looking at the inheritance that Lin Shanhe requested, I am afraid that the amount of this inheritance is far more than these famous paintings.
After Steward Zhang saw Yang Zixuan sit down, he looked at the time on the clock. Eight o'clock in the evening.
"Boom! Boom! ”
The punctual sound of the clock echoed throughout the study and reached the ears of everyone seated.
"Why don't you start yet?"
Lin Xiao, who was sitting at the long table, seemed to be a little anxious.
"Steward Zhang, can you start?" Lin Zipei, who was next to Lin Xiao, said to Steward Zhang.
After Lin Zipei's voice fell, Steward Zhang immediately spoke:
"Okay, now I will begin to narrate the information about this huge legacy left by Mr. Lin Shanhe during his lifetime."
This is the news that everyone has been waiting for, and they looked at Steward Zhang in front of them at the same time, and then Steward Zhang continued:
"The founder of the famous Lin Group, Mr. Lin Shanhe hid a huge amount of inheritance somewhere in the former residence of Shanhe during his lifetime, and all relatives who are related to Mr. Lin Shanhe are eligible to participate in this event, because Miss Lin Xiao has been living with Mr. Lin Zipei since she was a child, and she has also been approved by Mr. Lin Shanhe, she is also eligible to participate in this event."
Steward Zhang said as he looked at Lin Xiao, and Lin Xiao also cast a disdainful look. But there is no way, what Steward Zhang said is indeed the truth.
Steward Zhang continued: "According to Mr. Lin Shanhe's last wishes, he has hidden the secrets of his inheritance in a painting, please turn around and look at the famous painting behind you. ”
After Steward Zhang finished speaking, everyone looked behind them at the same time, and next to the door of the study, there was a conspicuous famous painting. Then everyone got up, left their seats, walked in front of the painting, and looked at the painting.
The content of the painting is very ordinary, it is a flower bush, except for the green leaves of the flowers, there is nothing special in it.
Steward Zhang walked over to the crowd and continued to tell the news about the inheritance:
"Ladies and gentlemen, the name of this painting you see is 'The Girl in the Flowers', and the secrets of the inheritance are hidden in this painting."
"The Girl in the Flowers? But there are only flowers in this painting, and there is no trace of a woman, except for the flowers. Lin Mu said to Steward Zhang.
"The Girl in the Flowers? It's just a flower. Lin Xiao also muttered to himself.
Immediately afterwards, Dong Jiali said to Steward Zhang: "I said, this can't be a joke left by Lin Shanhe, is it to trick us?" ”
"Mom!" Lin Mu said to Dong Jiali, realizing that Dong Jiali was talking a little excessively.
"Steward Zhang, did my father say anything else?" Lin Zipei, who was next to Yao Jingwen, asked Steward Zhang.
"Mr. Lin is right, Mr. Shanhe does have other words, he said, when the night rises, the girl in the flower raises the wine glass, the wine in the wine glass is not half of the wine glass, and the inheritance is self-revealed!"
"Gone?" Yao Jingwen asked.
"No, Mrs. Yao."
Yang Zixuan stepped forward and looked at the famous painting "Girl in Flowers" hanging on the wall in front of her, as she saw, there were only flowers on this famous painting, and there was no woman, so why is this famous painting called "Girl in Flowers"? There is also a clue left by my grandfather:
"When the night rises, the woman in the flower raises the wine glass, and the wine in the wine glass does not reach the waist of the wine glass, and the legacy is revealed!"
What does this mean? Why did his grandfather Lin Shanhe put all the secrets about his inheritance in this painting? She kept staring at the flowers in the painting, trying to see if there was a woman hiding in the flowers. Maybe it's because the petals are blocking the face.
But I never found the appearance of a woman. None of the others noticed anything strange in the painting, it was just a flower.
Then Steward Zhang came to everyone with a few pictures in his hand.
"Guys, here's a picture of this painting."
Steward Zhang sent a photo to everyone, the picture was a miniature version of the painting "The Girl in the Flower", which should be for their convenience. It seems that the secret of the legacy should be in this painting, and this painting should be the key to finding the inheritance.
Only then did Yang Zixuan understand why she had to let them come to the study, it turned out to be for this painting "The Girl in the Flower"!
After seeing that everyone had received the photos, Steward Zhang continued: "Everyone, now that each of you has got the picture, please find the information about the inheritance according to the content on this painting and the clues that Mr. Lin Shanhe said, and in the end, whoever can solve the mystery left by Mr. Lin Shanhe before his death will be qualified to take away the huge inheritance left by Mr. Lin Shanhe!" ”
After Steward Zhang finished speaking, he left the study, and only the relatives and family members with Lin Shanhe were left in the room, they looked at the pictures in their hands, and compared them with the famous paintings hanging on the wall. Thinking about the clues that Lin Shanhe said. Everyone wants to find this inheritance one step ahead.
Yang Zixuan is also thinking about this information, but she has not yet found an idea, and she also knows that the main purpose of this visit is to find the truth about Lin Ziyuan's suicide by jumping off the building two years ago. But for now, I'm afraid we'll have to find out in the process of finding a legacy.
She looked at the picture in her hand, and then looked at the famous painting "Girl in the Flower" hanging on the wall, what secret is hidden in this painting? Where is the woman among the flowers?
