Chapter 248 The brother and sister enter the Gu family genealogy
[The CEO is so assertive! We'll fight to the death to win this project!]
[Ahhh, double the year-end bonus! I love it so much! I'd work my ass off at Lu's, I hope President Lu won't look down on me!]
[I'm so incredibly happy.]
Double the year-end bonus, oh my god, how much is that?!
The Lu family's year-end bonus is an annual salary. These people all have quite a lot of annual salaries, around 300,000 to 400,000 yuan a year, plus a year-end bonus of 300,000 to 400,000 yuan. If they win this project, it will double their 300,000 to 400,000 yuan.
That means I could earn over a million this year.
This is so wonderful!
This is calculated based on the minimum standard in their department; others, especially those with more seniority, would receive more than this.
The head of the planning department immediately pledged his loyalty: "Yes, President Lu, I will lead the entire department to fight to the bitter end!"
They absolutely must win this project.
Lu Jingxiao then nodded slightly to them: "Let's leave work early today and go home to rest. What's coming next is a tough battle, and you all need to conserve your energy."
"Yes, Mr. Lu!"
Once outside the company, Luo Zhiwei hugged Lu Jingxiao's arm and praised, "You're amazing! You managed to win them all over like that."
"It's not me. Their proposal was approved by me so quickly this time thanks to your idea. Otherwise, they would have dragged it out for who knows how long."
Maybe tonight is another night of overtime for them.
Instead of leaving get off work early to go home and recharge.
"I think you're very gentle, so why are they all afraid of you?"
I can't figure it out.
Lu Jingxiao smiled gently. This girl was like a little child. He hugged her tightly: "I'm only doing this in front of you... Have you forgotten what I did before..."
That seems to make sense.
"Then let's go home."
Lu Jingxiao had only taken two steps when he remembered something important: "I can't go home yet."
"Why?"
"Your eldest brother asked us to go back to the old family house. It seems like he has something to discuss with us regarding the family reunion banquet."
Luo Zhiwei frowned; it seemed no one had told her this.
Isn't that my older brother?
Why did the older brother talk to Lu Jingxiao but not to her?
Why did he tell you but not me?
Lu Jingxiao raised an eyebrow smugly: "Maybe he thinks you have a boyfriend..."
"They're my brothers too, isn't it natural for them to text their sister?"
In terms of brotherhood, she can't compare to Lu Jingxiao and his cousin, but... they are siblings related by blood!
“It’s nothing important. We were just talking about something when he let me know.”
Okay, then I'll forgive the brothers for now.
**
Back at the Gu family's old house, the whole family was actually quite relaxed.
However, Lu Jingxiao was seated to the side, while Old Master Gu had the butler bring out the family genealogy.
Genealogy?
Luo Zhiwei had only heard of this on television.
The Luo family's foundation is not deep, and they don't have much of a family tree. The Zhao family's family has even less of a family tree.
It seems that Gu Youran's family had some, but she and her brother had already been expelled from the Gu family by then.
Therefore, she had never been in contact with it.
Now, after all this time, they've actually returned to the Gu family's main branch. What is that branch of the Gu family, which is so far removed from the main branch, anyway?
Grandpa Gu faced the family genealogy and turned to the last page, which contained the names of the three Gu brothers, Gu Hancheng and Gu Hancheng.
However, the current family genealogy only lists one son under Gu Hanlin's name, Gu Yulin, whose name is clearly written on it.
"Weiwei, Beixiao, you two kneel down."
Gu Beixiao and Luo Zhiwei knelt directly on the prayer mats in front of them. They knew when they came in that these two prayer mats were prepared for them.
This is intended to... allow the brother and sister to formally acknowledge their ancestry and return to their ancestral home.
The day after tomorrow is the family reunion banquet, and the old man plans to write them into the family genealogy before indulging in sentimental gestures.
That's why we chose this time.
After opening the family genealogy, Old Master Gu looked at the brother and sister and said, "My Gu family has built a century-old foundation. Everyone is written in the family genealogy. Only each head of the family will have a separate page for the genealogy."
“From today onwards, you two siblings will officially return to my Gu family. Later, I will use a cinnabar brush to write your names under your father’s name.”
This completes the ceremony.
"Yes, from now on I will take good care of my sister and never let her suffer any injustice."
Grandpa Gu said in a very heavy tone: "Your generation consists of only the three of you siblings. You must be kind and respectful to each other."
He looked at Gu Beixiao earnestly, his eyes filled with heartache: "Beixiao, Yulin is the heir of the Gu family. Don't harbor any resentment. Everything the Gu family has includes you and your sister... As for the heir..."
"It was decided a long time ago, so don't think we're being biased."
Gu Hancheng explained in a deep voice, "The eldest son is given priority in being chosen as the heir of the Gu family. If the eldest son is unable to shoulder the responsibility of a family, another one will be chosen... I was the previous head of the family, and later... your second uncle took over. Your generation... at the time, we thought there was only one Yu Lin, so we carefully nurtured him."
"Bei Xiao, you..."
Gu Beixiao said calmly, "Grandpa, Dad, I'm not interested in being the heir. My older brother is very capable and has done a great job, so I have no intention of competing for it. If you feel indebted, just give me a couple more projects; I wouldn't mind."
He genuinely didn't care at all. After all... they had just returned to the Gu family, and the heirs were doing just fine. He knew nothing about them, yet he tried to take their inheritance?
What's the difference between that and being an ingrate?
Grandpa Gu was very pleased: "Yes, you must. Your brother has already prepared several projects. You can start cooperating after the family reunion banquet."
He had reservations at first. Of his three children, the eldest, Gu Hancheng, was the most outstanding, followed by the second son... but the eldest son didn't remain the heir for long before passing the position to the second son.
But... the current situation is that Yu Lin grew up around them and is naturally excellent, but Bei Xiao is also quite outstanding. He built the company into a large company without relying on anyone, which is very impressive.
Two outstanding children are naturally proud and arrogant.
He didn't want his two best grandsons to turn against each other because of the identity of an heir; that was not what he wanted to see.
Gu Yulin walked to Gu Beixiao's side, very grateful: "Thank you."
"What's there to be grateful for? I've been running this company all this time to have a voice and relatively dominant power, but that doesn't mean I'm willing to manage an entire family. Just thinking about it gives me a headache."
That's just creating trouble for yourself.
If Gu Yulin knew what Gu Beixiao was thinking, he might fight him!
Grandpa Gu was very pleased and moved; the Gu family's children were all good children.
He carefully traced the handwriting and wrote down the names of Gu Beixiao and Luo Zhiwei.
Before this, they had asked Weiwei for her opinion, but Weiwei didn't want to change her name, so they let her have it.
She had the surname Luo for over twenty years.
If Luo Huining treats her badly, they will naturally ask her to change her name. However, since she loves Weiwei very much, changing her surname is not appropriate.
After discussing it, they let her go.
As long as the child is happy, that's all that matters.
After the names were written, Old Master Gu had the housekeeper bring over two more share transfer contracts.
He gave one portion to each of the brother and sister.
"These are Gu's shares, not many. You and your brother each get 5%, plus some movable and immovable property. Let your father sort them out before giving them to you."
Gu's 5%—that's a huge amount of money.
They can earn tens of billions in dividends every year.
Luo Zhiwei: "......"
Lu Jingxiao couldn't hold back any longer: "Grandpa Gu, you've been kneeling for a while. Could you please let Weiwei get up?"
Old Master Gu: "......"
