023. Interests, the eternal theme in your and my lives
Wei Jieling returned to the Wei family's old house from Meridian Road, her brother Wei Yingguo, who had not met for a long time and the defendant in her family lawsuit, was waiting for her on the first floor of her embroidery building, and smoked a cigar in the house, green smoke wafted all over the room, she was caught off guard when she entered the door, and was choked.
"Don't smoke in my house anymore." Wei Jieling didn't know what kind of attitude to use to face her brother, "I can't smell smoke." β
"You are deliberately going against me," Wei Yingguo snorted, "Mother didn't leave her cigarette pouch back then, and I didn't see you say anything to her." β
"I can't smell cigars." Wei Jieling said, taking a handkerchief to wipe the tears in her eyes that were smoked by the smell of smoke, "If you have something to say, go out and smoke before coming in." β
Wei Yingguo put out the cigar on the plate in disappointment, and instructed his subordinates to open the doors and windows: "Just came back from that Japanese woman?" β
Wei Jieling stood by the window, and when she heard him ask, she said "um" calmly.
"You've teamed up with that Japanese?" Wei Yingguo then asked, "Join forces to calculate your eldest brother, and worry about our father's inheritance?" β
Wei Jieling's composure turned into shock: "I swear to my father's spirit in the sky, I have never calculated his inheritance, it was you who first violated your father's will and wanted to swallow Yizhuang's property!" β
Wei Yingguo snorted: "I want Yizhuang's property, but if I get that money back, I will share it equally with your second brother and third brother." You teamed up with Qi Chuan Xun, didn't you want to swallow Yizhuang alone? β
Wei Jieling took a step back, she never imagined that her attempt to save Yizhuang would be misinterpreted by him like this.
"I've never thought like that!" Wei Jieling retorted sharply in her voice, "If the court decides to save Yizhuang, then I won't get a penny, and if the judgment is divided equally, then I will just take the tenth sister to share the money with you equally." β
Wei Yingguo sneered, and his tone was extremely sarcastic: "Since you have such a good plan, why did you go to form an alliance with the Japanese?" β
"It was the secretary who Sukawa sent to find me, and I never went to form an alliance with her." Wei Jieling raised her chin and glared at him angrily, "It's you, didn't you have an alliance with Lu Boyi a long time ago?" β
Wei Yingguo sneered again: "No matter how much I form an alliance with Boyi, I will not be like you, stupidly sending our own silver to others." β
Wei Jieling was so angry by his contemptuous attitude and sarcastic tone that she walked around the room like a trapped beast: "You won't believe what I say, so why do you still come to see me." β
"I saw you just so that you wouldn't be fooled by others and pay back the money." Wei Yingguo personally closed the doors and windows, sent all the girls in the house out, and sat down next to Wei Jieling, "Boyi came to see me today and said that he received a notice from the consulate to ignore your request to divide the inheritance equally, and a third party will set up a supervisory agency to take over Yizhuang." β
As he spoke, his nostrils raised again, and he looked at her contemptuously: "What are Qi Chuan's plans, are you clear now?" You thought she was here to help you? Do you think that you are handing over the righteousness and brightness of the people, and you are the master of the clan? β
Wei Jieling had already received vague hints from Midai Ono, and she suggested withdrawing the lawsuit and letting herself divide the inheritance equally, but the reason used was that the court decision could not stop the greedy Wei Yingguo.
Wei Jieling felt that the temperature around her body was dropping little by little, and the biting chill soaked through her clothes and skin. Wei Yingguo did not say a single word wrong about her accusations...... She was indeed sold, and she was still helping to count the money.
"Brother...... Brother," she said in a trembling voice, "I was wrong......
"I'll drop the lawsuit tomorrow." Wei Yingguo glared at her, and then sighed again, "If you can still withdraw back......"
Wei Jieling couldn't wait for the next morning, she immediately dialed Lu Zhai, and when she dialed, her hands trembled into chaff, Wei Yingguo couldn't stand it, and slapped her on the shoulder: "Now I know I'm scared." β
When the phone was dialed, Lu Peiming was still socializing outside, and the servants didn't know where he went. Wei Jieling was sweating on the other end of the phone, and the people of the Lu family couldn't help, so they just told her the phone number of Lu Peiming's secretary and asked her to try to ask the secretary again.
She hung up the phone and immediately dialed Lu Peiming's secretary again, but Wei Yingguo pressed the receiver: "You are calling in a hurry now, obviously you got some information." Boyi's secretary is also unreliable, since he can't be contacted, then you will go to the court in person early tomorrow morning. β
Wei Jieling took a deep breath, released the earpiece, and collapsed on the sofa: "Are you determined to move the money in Yizhuang?" β
"Alright, put away your compassion." Wei Yingguo snorted, and went to light a cigarette again, this time not a cigar, but a slender cigarette, "Your kindness has never accomplished anything good, unless you hate the Wei family to the point of gritting your teeth, and you dream of watching our family fall as soon as possible, otherwise it's better to save it." β
"I didn't do anything wrong." Wei Jieling said stubbornly, "It's you and Qi Chuan who are wrong." β
"Yo, now you're pouring dirty water on my head?" Wei Yingguo smiled, "What's the matter?" Want to say that the two of us are a gang, and the idea of conspiring to fight Yizhuang? β
Wei Jieling heard this, her face was hot, as if she had been slapped several times in front of the public.
But she still said: "It was your idea to hit Yizhuang first, how many times have I persuaded you, but you didn't listen, so I made this decision." β
"Girls' families, worry less about men's affairs." The smile on Wei Yingguo's face disappeared, his whole person looked impatient, and his tone began to be unpolite, "After this incident, you are ready to get married, so you don't have to think about it all day long in your mother's house." I think Boyi is very good, although the lintel of the Lu family is lower than my family, but there is no family in the whole coastal area that is more compatible with us than the Lu family. β
"You die, I won't marry Lu Boyi." Wei Jieling remembered his submissive appearance in front of Ono Meidai, and a burst of disgust arose from her heart, "Brother can rest assured, after this matter is over, I will go abroad to study, we will never see each other all year round, and you don't have to worry about when I will spoil you again." β
The corners of Wei Yingguo's eyes sank, and his whole face showed a little anger: "You are becoming more and more disobedient now, the so-called eldest brother is like a father and sister-in-law is like a mother, you dare to disobey your parents' orders?" β
"If one of my parents had been alive, what happened today would not have happened." Wei Jieling sneered, "You want this matter to pass, how do you want it to pass?" β
"You'll withdraw it tomorrow." Wei Ying National Road, "Yizhuang was divided equally by the five rooms of the Wei family according to the original plan." β
"Seven rooms." Wei Jieling said, "According to the laws of the Republic of China, my tenth sister and I are also eligible to inherit our father's inheritance. β
Wei Yingguo let out a long "hiss", he threw the cigarette butt out through the window, walked up to Wei Jieling, and looked down at her condescendingly, "You are determined to go against me." β
"I didn't go against you." Wei Jieling looked straight ahead and didn't look at him, "I'm just following the law to get back what I should want." β
"Okay, okay," Wei Yingguo waved his hand distraughtly, "You Ming'er will get the case back first, and after the lawsuit is withdrawn, I will call your second brother and third brother and your two nephews, and we will discuss it together." β
"There's nothing to discuss." Wei Jieling said, "You promise me now." β
"You!" Wei Yingguo raised his hand, Wei Jieling noticed his movements, immediately stood up, raised his face to him: "What do you want to do?" Fan me? Come on! β
Wei Yingguo exhaled a mouthful of turbid gas mixed with the smell of smoke, snorted vigorously, and took a step back: "I promise you." β
Wei Jieling looked at him fixedly: "Really? β
"Seriously."
"Then you write me a note."
Wei Yingguo's temper came up again: "I'll tell you Wei Qi, you'd better be honest with me, don't kick your nose in the face." β
Wei Jieling was not stunned at all: "You don't write? β
"I wrote that I am a grandson!" Wei Yingguo finally became angry and roared at his sister, "You weigh yourself, don't worry about what you can't worry about, beware of the little tatters in your hands are lost!" β
The two brothers and sisters broke up unhappily when they met tonight, but when Wei Jieling prepared the car to go to the court early the next morning, Wei Yingguo was already waiting for her in the car.
"The complaint was withdrawn, and the bank was asked to unseal the money from Yizhuang." Wei Yingguohe leaned back in the back seat, his voice was lazy, and he used the tone of commanding his subordinates, "There are many dreams at night, and that money can no longer be put in the bank." β
Wei Jieling didn't answer, she got into the car by herself and sat down beside him: "Go to the Chaosheng Daily office first and talk to the reporters." β
Wei Yingguo opened his eyes: "Why did you pick him up?" β
Wei Jieling still didn't look at him: "He has been following up on this case and asked him to come over to witness my withdrawal of the lawsuit, so that he will not chase after the wind and shadow himself, and then scribble in the newspaper." β
This reason is natural, there is nothing to refute, Wei Yingguo thought about it, and suddenly got out of the car and went back to the study.
Wei Jieling was inexplicable: "What did you do?" β
"Invite the reporter," Wei Yingguo frowned impatiently, and didn't want to talk to her, so he only instructed the driver in front of him, "Drive." β
When their car drove into the Binhai Court, Wei Jieling finally knew the purpose of Wei Yingguo's return to the studyβhe invited all the media reporters in the Binhai Land, not only in Binhai, not only in China. The court staff sweated profusely and negotiated with them, asking them what they were coming for, but even they themselves could not tell what they meant, and only said, "I received a call that there was a news event going to happen here, so I came."
The Wei family's car drove into the courthouse at this time, Wei Yingguo got out of the car first, greeted the reporters with a smile, and then went around to the other side of the car and took Wei Jieling down.
"Hard, reporters and friends, yesterday, my seventh sister Jieling and I reached an agreement on the issue of my family's inheritance, and today I specially accompanied her to withdraw the lawsuit." He said with a smile, and at the same time stood still surrounded by the cameras, "My family's inheritance is settled by my family's own negotiation, thank you for the attention of reporters and friends in the past." β
Wei Jieling stood stiffly against the car, and at the same time asked Wei Yingguo in a low voice: "I haven't submitted an application to withdraw the lawsuit, what do you mean by this?" β
"It's not interesting," Wei Yingguo smiled and responded in a low voice, "just to make it easier for you to withdraw the lawsuit." β
"You want to give Qichuan Shun a horse." Wei Jieling said, "You want to use public opinion to force her to nod." β
"If you don't want to give our family to her for nothing," Wei Yingguo smiled, "Then please cooperate with my little sister." β
Someone squeezed in front of them with great difficulty and shouted "Miss Seven": "May I ask what are the conditions for the eldest prince to persuade you to withdraw the lawsuit?" β
"My sister and I, as the legal heirs of the estate, participate in the equal distribution of the estate." Wei Jieling smiled and replied clearly.
She had already expected that the next reports of those reporters that Wei Jieling's high-sounding words in the past half a month of "obeying her father's will", "defending Yizhuang's property", and "never abandoning every member of the Wei family" would become a fig leaf for "interests" after today.
Now that this cloth is no longer needed, Miss Seven threw it away as a matter of course, and threw away her father's will to drink all the Wei clansmen.
