Chapter Ninety-Three: Sister and Brother
"Wow!" accompanied by the cry of a baby, in a palatial courtyard, a servant woman ran out of the door and shouted, "Birth, master, lady is born!"
A middle-aged man dressed as a wealthy businessman rubbed his hands and asked nervously, "What did you give birth to, is the mother and child safe?"
"Congratulations, sir, Madame has added a daughter to you. "Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info" the servant woman exclaimed excitedly.
"Uh!" The middle-aged man's face suddenly stiffened when he heard this, and he asked, "How is Madame?"
At this moment, I heard a cry again in the delivery room, and someone shouted: "Congratulations to the master, Mrs. has given birth again, this time it is a little boy, and Mrs. has given birth to a dragon and phoenix fetus!"
"What did you say?" The middle-aged man immediately jumped up from the chair when he heard this, and heard the shouting in the room: "Congratulations to the master, congratulations to the master, the lady gave birth to a dragon and phoenix fetus for you, and gave birth to a little boy and a little daughter for you." ”
"I have a son!" the middle-aged man shouted happily, stood up and turned in circles excitedly, "Quickly hug it out and let me see!"
Before long, the two nurses came to the middle-aged man with two swaddling clothes in their arms, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to the master, congratulations to the master." ”
The middle-aged man smiled from ear to ear and said, "Let me see my son." ”
At this time, a nurse walked up to him with a swaddling baby in her arms and said, "Master, your daughter at this time." ”
The middle-aged man frowned and said, "Oh, I know." After a glance, he walked quickly to the other nurse, took the baby in swaddling clothes with a smile, and said with a smile: "Hehe, this is my son, my Zhong Changsheng finally has a son, and our Zhong family finally has a queen!"
The two nurses glanced at each other, and they both saw the different colors in each other's eyes, and they couldn't imagine that the old man had a completely different attitude towards his brother and sister who were also his own blood and blood, and couldn't help but secretly began to worry about the future of the baby as an elder sister.
The joy of the birth of the newborn soon diluted the shadow of this matter, and the old man Zhong held a banquet for three days to celebrate, and also named the two children separately, the elder sister was called Yue'er, and the younger brother was called Lan'er.
Even as the two children get older, the Zhong family's business is getting bigger and bigger, and the two children are like living in a honey pot, enjoying the life of fine clothes and food, but Zhong Changsheng has a completely different attitude towards the two children, treating his son no matter how big or small he is, but he never asks about his daughter, and when she was only ten years old, she formed a baby with her business partner and married her daughter to someone's family.
Unconsciously, the two children gradually grew up, and if they continued to develop according to the established trajectory, both children would have a fairly good life. But there are unforeseen circumstances, just when Liang'er and Lan'er were fifteen years old, Zhong Changsheng somehow offended the imperial merchants, and his business was comprehensively suppressed, and the family began to decline rapidly.
Zhong Changsheng was bedridden under repeated blows, and the whole person became extremely irritable, Zhong Lan had to be ordered to take on the burden of reviving his family's reputation at the age of fifteen.
Just when everyone thought that the Zhong family was about to fall, Zhong Lan suddenly emerged, with his wisdom and superb means far beyond his peers, he resolved the contradiction with the imperial businessman and quickly stabilized the situation, and it seemed that the Zhong family was about to regroup and return to its peak.
However, at this time, the former partners of the Zhong family suddenly made a difficulty, led by the Zhou family, who had become a baby with the Zhong family, and united to annex the Zhong family's industry, so that the Zhong family fell into a precarious situation again.
Zhong Lan, who has extraordinary talent, reacted quickly and prepared sharp counterattack methods, but at this time, Zhong Changsheng returned from illness and strongly opposed the adoption of fierce counterattack methods, but returned to the helm of the Zhong family, negotiated with the partners led by the Zhou family, and finally ensured that the Zhong family survived a catastrophe safely.
Things have calmed down, the Zhong family is still the enviable family of the wealthy, and the son of the Zhong family is also known as a business wizard and famous all over the world, just when everyone is envious of the happiness of this family, there is a person's fate in sadness.
As an additional condition for the exchange of interests negotiated with the Zhou family, Zhong Yue was about to marry into the Zhou family, and just when the two families were happily holding a happy event, Zhong Yue and Zhong Lan suddenly disappeared.
The angry Zhou Zhong family began to search around, and finally found the brother and sister who were about to run away from home on a dock.
"Nonsense, what are you two running out for?" Looking at Zhong Lan's sister and brother who were surrounded on the dock, Zhong Changsheng asked with a calm face, glared at Zhong Yue fiercely and said, "I'm going to get married soon, and I'm still bringing my younger brother out to mess around!"
Zhong Yue's face turned miserable when she heard this, and she smiled sadly: "Daddy, my daughter doesn't want to marry ......." ”
This Zhong Lan grabbed it and said, "This matter has nothing to do with my sister, I want to take my sister away!"
"It's not like this, it's me who wants to leave by myself, and my brother is not at ease so he follows here. Zhong Yue argued.
When the old man of the Zhou family heard this, he turned his head to look at Zhong Changsheng and asked, "Brother Zhong, what did you say this?"
Zhong Changsheng's face stiffened when he heard this, and he said with a dark face: "If there is anything to talk about, don't be embarrassed here!"
Zhong Yue shook her head stubbornly and said, "Dad, forgive the child for being unfilial, the child will not go back." ”
Zhong Lan said at this time: "Dad, you just let me and my sister go, and when my sister settles down, I will go home." ”
"Nonsense, how can a marriage event be a child's play!" Zhong Chang turned around angrily and shouted: "Someone will arrest Miss Childe for me!" When the servants heard this, they wanted to step forward and make a move, and they all said: "Childe, Miss is offended!"
"Stop!" Zhong Lan shouted loudly, and at some point he took out a dagger and put it on his neck, shouting: "All stand down, don't compare to me!" Seeing this, the servants retreated one after another.
Zhong Changsheng trembled with anger when he saw this, and shouted angrily: "Bastard, what are you doing?"
But he saw Zhong Lan kneel down suddenly, kowtowed three times, and said loudly: "Dad, you don't want to compare with me and my sister, the Zhou family is not a good family, not to mention that the eldest young master of the Zhou family lingers in brothels every day, and has long been infected with flower willow disease, even your brother is not a good person, although the son did not find any definite evidence, but I believe that everything that happened to the Zhong family is he secretly making trouble, how can I let my sister marry into such a hungry wolf family!"
"Virtuous nephew Hugh wants to spew blood, my eldest man is a little more romantic, but he is not as unbearable as you say, and besides, I have a lifelong friendship with your father, how can I do what you said?"
"Isn't it, ask your conscience!" Zhong Lan replied to him coldly.
At this time, Zhong Yue had already cried so much that she said sadly: "Brother, you must not do stupid things, my sister is not worthy of you!" After speaking, he slowly retreated to the riverside.
"No, my sister and I were born and raised together, they are my dearest relatives, I would rather die than let my sister suffer the slightest grievance!" Zhong Lan said categorically.
"Evil obstacles, evil obstacles!" Zhong Changsheng was so angry that he stomped his feet and shouted: "What are you waiting for, arrest these two evil seeds for me, I want to serve the family law!"
That old man shouted: "Arrest, arrest!"
The servants of the two families received the order of their master and surrounded them one after another, and Zhong Lan shouted while waving his dagger, "Who dares to come!" and protected his sister tightly behind him.
This Zhong Yue smiled sadly: "Brother, you have to live well and honor your parents for me." He kowtowed heavily to Zhong Changsheng and said, "Dad, forgive my daughter's unfilial piety!" After speaking, he turned around and jumped into the rolling river behind him.
"No!" Zhong Lan let out a heart-rending roar and jumped into the water after her, trying to save her ashore.
However, in July and August, the river was flooding, and the two weak figures were washed away by the rolling torrent in a blink of an eye, leaving only the stunned people on the shore.
"No-!" In the rolling torrent, Xiao Lan reached out and grabbed one of Qingyue's hands tightly, holding it tightly and refusing to let go.
"You're pinching me!" a cold voice came.
Xiao Lan was startled, but saw Qingyue looking at him coldly, and then suddenly what he had just experienced was just a phantom dream on the road of inquiry, and now that the dream had woken up, the two were still standing on the same step, but their moods had quietly changed subtly.
