These days are the busiest days for the Meng family, and Meng Yongshou, who lives in Zhuhua City, Yannan District, is the founder of Yongshou Tannery, which ranks first in the local area and even in the entire Yannan District.

Every day the tannery's orders are flying like snowflakes, and Meng Yongshou's family has been on the list of the richest people in Yannan District for many years, and has been the richest man in Zhuhua City for nearly five years.

For Meng Yongshou, he was originally a busy man, dealing with business matters every day, and he had to deal with some departments.

Otherwise, the pollutants emitted by the Yongshou tannery would have closed the company, which covers an area of 100,000 square meters and has more than 4,000 regular employees.

Not only that, Meng Yongshou's factory solves the employment problem of nearby residents, he himself has been doing philanthropy, and he has been focusing on investing in water management.

As for the real purpose, perhaps only he and a few others knew it.

In the past few days, Meng Yongshou has not been busy with business, but busy with family affairs, and his 86-year-old father has passed away.

As a well-known figure in the city, the funeral of the Meng family naturally cannot be too sloppy, and many big people have to come to mourn, which has almost become a relationship party.

It is estimated that it will take about seven days to complete.

Originally, the funeral parlor in the city had a rule that the body in the mourning hall must be cremated and buried after three days, but Meng Yongshou, in order to maximize the relationship between all walks of life, forcibly postponed the cremation time for four days, stating that he would cremate Mr. Meng a week later.

In the past few days of the vigil, Meng Yongshou went home on time at 11 o'clock every day, and did not keep vigil in the mourning hall once.

Under his leadership, the other relatives also almost went to deal with it, making a show, basically after Meng Yongshou entertained the last group of guests who came to mourn, he walked with his front foot, and the other relatives left with his back foot.

The people who kept the mourning hall were all employees in the factory, and there were also people who Meng Yongshou temporarily invited to pretend to be filial sons.

Today is the fourth day of the vigil, which is the day when the funeral home has exceeded the rules of the funeral home and must be cremated and buried.

For Meng Yongshou, money can be channeled, and it is not a big deal to extend the time, as long as the purpose can be achieved.

After returning home on time at eleven o'clock as usual, his wife Pan Ya, who had already gone home early, was already asleep at this time. Children usually play outside at this time, and it is common to come home at one or two in the morning.

But the situation is special in the past few days, Meng Yongshou stipulated that the two children must stay at home, so the two came back from the funeral home with their mother, and they hadn't slept at this time, the son sat in front of the computer with headphones to play the jungle, and the daughter was lying on the bed in her bedroom and swiping her mobile phone.

The reception had been busy for a day without much food, and Meng Yongshou's body couldn't bear it, so he was going to go to the bathroom to take a shower first, and let the chef go to the kitchen at the same time to fry two fried eggs and cook a bowl of noodles.

The villa at home has a front and back yard, and a swimming pool in the backyard, if it was in the past, Meng Yongshou would go for a night swim and then sleep, but now he is really not in the mood.

After taking a shower, he returned to the bedroom, and after a while, Aunt Guo brought a bowl of boiled noodles on a delicate plate, and two fried eggs were placed on the noodles, which were full of aroma.

It is said that Aunt Guo was once the chef of a five-star restaurant, and was recruited by Meng Yongshou with a high salary to serve the Meng family.

Afraid of waking up his wife, Meng Yongshou put on his nightgown and walked out of the bedroom, and picked up noodles in the dining room on the second floor.

Aunt Guo made him another cup of steaming milk and said, "Mr. Meng, you eat first, I'll go down to clean up the kitchen, and I'll come back to collect the dishes later." ”

"Well, you're busy, rest early." Meng Yongshou took a bite of the omelette and nodded.

Aunt Guo quickly went downstairs.

Meng Yongshou's fat body is not unrelated to his eating habits, but fortunately, this person is tall, and although he looks a little bloated, he gives people the illusion of being burly.

Aunt Besides, her skills are very good, a simple bowl of noodles with a long time ago cooked keel soup, sprinkled with some chopped green onions, with a freshly cooked omelette, oily but not greasy, Meng Yongshou will soon finish eating.

The soup was so fragrant that he gulped it down, and soon he was about to see the bottom of the bowl.

But at this moment, Meng Yongshou was stunned for a moment, and he felt as if there was a figure standing not far away.

Holding the bowl in both hands, I looked up and saw Aunt Guo, who had just gone out, standing at the door of the restaurant at the moment, looking at herself tremblingly.

Meng Yongshou put down the bowl and said with a surprised face: "What? Aunt Condition. ”

Aunt Guo's face was pale at the moment, her lips were blue, her limbs couldn't help but tremble slightly, her hands involuntarily grabbed the door frame, as if she was afraid of falling, as if her thinking was also very confused, and after Meng Yongshou asked this sentence for a while, she finally knew how to answer.

Meng ...... Mr. Meng, Mr. ...... Sir, he ...... It's back. ”

"What?!" Meng Yongshou stood up and threw the chopsticks on the table, "You mean, I'...... My dad ...... Coming back? ”

Aunt Guo couldn't answer, so she leaned against the door frame and nodded.

"Who brought him back?" Meng Yongshou said.

"It's not." Aunt Guo hurriedly waved her hand, "It seems that he is himself, and he came back, and he is in the kitchen." ”

"No, it can't be."

Meng Yongshou rushed out of the restaurant on the second floor, walked to the corridor leading to the stairs on the first floor, and said, "Take my wife...... Scream, don't call the child yet. ”

When he came to the staircase, Meng Yongshou's face had also become very pale, he couldn't help but shudder, as if he remembered something, turned around and went back to the restaurant, and picked up the mobile phone on the table.

Seeing that the aunt was still leaning against the door frame, she said angrily: "Go and tell Pan Ya to get up!" ”

Aunt Guo reacted at this time, and hurriedly walked in the direction of the bedroom with trembling hands and feet.

Meng Yongshou dialed the phone while approaching the stairs, and after someone on the other end answered, he said, "Zhengping, are you still in the mourning hall?" ”

Zhengping is the director of the office in the factory, surnamed Bai, and he has been holding a wake with a few people in the factory and the people who are crying and pretending to be filial sons in the past few days.

Bai Zhengping's tone was a little hesitant, and he replied: "Boss, I just came out now, and I'm going to go for supper, go back immediately, go back immediately." ”

"Go back now." Meng Yongshou lowered his voice and roared: "Go and see my father, is he still there...... Lying in the ice coffin, call me as soon as you see it clearly. ”

"Ahh Bai Zhengping was obviously frightened over there, and before he hung up the phone, he heard the sound of closing the car door and starting to run back.

The guy was obviously preparing to drive out of the funeral home.

Hanging up the phone, Meng Yongshou had already walked to the stairs on the first floor, he was holding the mobile phone tightly in his hand, pinching his palms purple, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he didn't know whether he had just eaten noodles and had a fever, or he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.

Meng Yongshou's eyes locked on the door at the top of the stairs and turned left, which was the direction leading to the kitchen.

He looked up at the second floor, but there was no sound coming, and he didn't know if the damn aunt woke Pan Ya.

Meng Yongshou had goosebumps all over his body, his head was numb, and to be honest, he didn't believe Aunt Guo's words.

After all, there are people watching from the mourning hall, and the old man really wants to climb out of the ice coffin and walk back home, and he may not be seen during this period, so the probability is too low.

But in this era of frequent weirdness, as long as it is involved in this aspect, there is no one who is not frightened.

Thinking wildly, Meng Yongshou cautiously walked to the door of the kitchen, stood outside the door, and looked into the kitchen.

The villa was brightly lit, and there were lights everywhere, so his vision was excellent, but when he looked at it, he saw a short, thin figure standing in front of the kitchen counter with his back to the door, and this man moved his hands in front of him, not knowing what he was doing.

Looking behind him, the figure was wearing black clothes, but Meng Yongshou didn't know very well, he had the impression that his father seemed to be wearing a dark shroud, but the specific style was not sure.

Before and after the old man lay down in the ice coffin, Meng Yongshou was busy with reception, and even the shroud was arranged by Bai Zhengping, and he didn't have time to pay attention.

Standing at the door of the kitchen, looking at the silent figure in front of him, Meng Yongshou's body was cold.

Although it is a distance away, I am not sure, but at least there is a 50% chance that the person in front of me is his father.

At this moment, the mobile phone in his hand suddenly rang, vibrating while ringing, the sound was not loud, but in this quiet environment, Meng Yongshou sounded louder than beating gongs and drums.

You don't have to think about it to know that this is Bai Zhengping's call, and just now I was negligent and didn't mute my phone at all.

At the same time as the bell rang, the black-clothed figure who had been standing in front of the kitchen counter and didn't know what he was doing suddenly stopped moving, put his hands down, and slowly raised his head with his head down.

At this moment, Meng Yongshou felt that his heart was about to stop beating, his lips opened slightly, and he stared at the figure with his back to him motionless in a cold sweat.

At this time, he had quickly pressed the answer button, the ringtone disappeared, and the phone was connected, but he struggled for a long time to put the phone to his ear.

Bai Zhengping's voice came, revealing a sense of horror: "Old ...... Old...... Boss, do you hear me? Master...... It's gone, inside the ice coffin...... Empty, I went out for supper just now, I went to the toilet, I didn't notice ......"

Meng Yongshou couldn't hear the next words, because the person in front of him was turning around, so frightened that he put down his phone and watched the familiar and wrinkled old face that turned to him.

"Dad!"
