Chapter 256 256. Family Scandal
Brother, dont worry, your ship is not that easy to capsize. Maybe we can follow him to the sky and change the master of Jinling City.
If what he said were heard by others, it would definitely be a cri of treason.
It's just that the two brothers have surrendered to that person for many years, so naturally they have a backer and are not afraid of risks.
But in the Chi family not far away, the elders of the fifth house who were supposed to be happily preparing to marry off their daughter were now making a fuss in their ancestral ho.
"Chi Zimo, you have only been in charge of the Chi family for a few years and you dare to do this to . Aren't you afraid that your father will fall asleep in the middle of the night and kill you?!"
The person who spoke was the fifth master of the Chi family. He was tall and handso. Even though he was over forty, he looked very young. Standing next to Chi Zimo, he did not look old.
Beside him, the fifth lady of the Chi family was crying out of breath.
He was also a rchant by birth, and had an indirect marriage relationship with the Zhu family, so this marriage was facilitated.
Now the couple, one with a red face and one with a white face, co to the house to make trouble, just because of the dowry.
The Chi family has gradually grown since the 21st generation head of the family, Chi Chengxu, made his fortune again.
He was originally a rchant, and he did not exercise restraint in taking concubines.
Coupled with the old custom of having many children and grandchildren, it is natural that there will be countless side kinships passed down from generation to generation.
Chi Ni, the twenty-second generation head of the family, had countless wives and concubines in his life.
There are three wives alone, not to ntion the concubines who share the sa room.
His first wife was a mber of the Dong family. Unfortunately, she died of illness within a few years after giving birth to her eldest son and second son.
The Dong family was worried that their two grandsons would not be able to survive in the Chi family, which eats people without spitting out their bones, so Mr. Dong tried his best to send the two brothers to Yunqi Academy thousands of miles away, where they stayed for more than ten years.
Although he was living in poverty in the mountains, he was able to avoid many overt and secret fights at ho. However, after returning, he and his father were not as close as they were when they were children.
After Dong died of illness, Mr. Chi married the daughter of Zhao Xiucai as his successor on the grounds that the family needed a mistress to take charge of the family.
Mrs. Zhao was respectful, courteous, modest and submissive. She was devoted to her husband and cared deeply about her concubines. However, she didn't know much about the business affairs of the Chi family in front of her, so she was taken advantage of when she was pregnant with Liujia.
That person is now Mr. Chi Wus biological mother and his forr favorite concubine, Aunt Lan.
Aunt Lan was born into a rchant family. Her family was diocre, but she was a powerful one.
Not only did she make a na for herself in the business world at a young age, she also hooked up with Mr. Chi through the Chamber of Comrce and beca his most favored and most trusted aunt.
After Zhao learned about this, she was tolerant and took her back as a sister, but unexpectedly she lost her life because of it.
At the ti of delivery, there was no one at ho to take care of her.
By the ti Aunt Lan ca back from socializing with Master Chi, she was completely dead, and even the child in her belly had suffocated to death.
After only half a month of grief, Aunt Lan was straightened up and gave birth to her legitimate son Chi Wu Ye half a year later.
Cheng Huan has been under the lap of Master Chi since he was a child, so he was particularly favored, and gradually developed his unruly and willful temperant. There is nothing he dare not do in Jinling City. Anyway, if sothing happens, the Chi family will bear it. .
Although he is not as respected as the eldest son and second son born to Yuan's wife Dong, he still has the title of legitimate son, so he is also a prominent figure in the family.
The mother and son thought that this ti they could hold on until the clouds cleared and the moon ca out, and Xiao thought that the Chi family's huge property would fall into their hands. Unexpectedly, the eldest son and the second son born from Yuanqi also returned ho after studying. Not only that, they also married a cousin of the Dong family. The couple was harmonious, and the brothers were respectful to each other.
Mr. Chi always wanted to comfort him, and the pride in his heart arose spontaneously.
Chi Zimo was born at this ti, so he has been favored by thousands of people since he was born.
With such montum, Mrs. Lan and Mr. Chi Wu were anxious. Seeing that the great opportunity was about to be taken away, the position of the head of the family, the power of the family, and the helm of the family were all going to be handed over to others. How could she bear it.
They simply did nothing and took advantage of the few of them to go out to do business. They colluded with the bandits to kill Chi Dalang, his wife, and Chi Erlang together, without even leaving a whole body.
At that ti, Chi Zimo was only eight years old and had already lost his father and mother.
Mr. Chi lost his wife in his early years and his son in his middle age. Under this blow, his originally healthy body seed to be hollowed out, and he could only live a life of survival.
At the sa ti, he took Chi Zimo to his own courtyard to educate him personally, but sent Mrs. Lan, who had served him for half his life, to live in another courtyard.
Such an attitude allowed those who were clinging to the Chi family to imdiately see what Mr. Chi was thinking.
Naturally, the mother and son are not as caring and flattering as before.
Since ancient tis, it has been easy to move from frugality to luxury, but it has been difficult to move from luxury to frugality. The mother and son were used to living a life of being surrounded by each other. How could they tolerate such "slow treatnt"? Therefore, they always bore their grudges against the young Chizi Mo. On the body.
Mr. Chi and Chi Zimo are one sick and the other weak, but they have to fight with Mrs. Lan and Chi Wulang who are in their pri, which is naturally difficult.
Coupled with the excessive trust in Mrs. Lan before, many businesses were entrusted to her to handle, and she was naturally able to compete with her.
It was not until Chi Zimo turned eighteen that Master Chi could safely entrust most of his family property to the eldest grandson whose parents had died early, and then passed away.
As for Chi Wulang, naturally he can only get so share from the rest of the fragnted family property.
Ke Chi's family is so powerful that even the marginal family property is actually enough for them to have enough food and clothing.
Its a pity that peoples hearts are not as strong as snakes swallowing elephants.
The Aunt Lan back then and Mrs. Chi today are naturally even more unhappy.
In the past ten years, people have tried various thods to kill Chi Zimo and drive him away, but they have been defeated one by one.
And the forces in her hands were taken back one by one by Chi Zimo, and now only a body is left in the backyard for the rest of her life.
So they wanted to take this opportunity to cause trouble.
The purpose is to show the rest of the Chi family how Chi Zimo, the so-called head of the family, insults his elders and doesn't care about the lives of his brothers and sisters.
I dont want to use this to drag him into the water, but it is good to throw dirt on him.
Although there are many side branches of the Chi family, the main line has always been in Dafang.
For example, the unknown secret navigation route, the soldiers raised by the family, and nearly 80% of the family business are all inherited from the Dafang lineage.
Why are they both the legitimate sons, but the difference in the family property they can inherit is so huge? How can they be reconciled to this!
No, on the other side, the fifth master and his wife of the Chi family scolded and cried, making everyone present look embarrassed.
