Chapter 232: The Rich Old Lady (6)
Tokiho's answer drove the paparazzi crazy with excitement.
"Which side will you help?"
"Do you support the splitting up of the Dahe Group?"
"The Zhou sisters are the only family members who have visited you since you woke up. Does this mean that you will join forces with them to fight for the inheritance?"
"Some people say you've been feigning illness and sleep for the past 21 years, wasting medical resources. Do you have any response?"
Faced with wave after wave of increasingly outrageous questions, Shisui stopped answering.
But there was always a smile on her face.
After getting into the nanny car, she waved her hand and said meaningfully to the media: "Life really is full of changes, just like me... Don't you agree? If there are any changes in the Zhou family in the future, I don't think anyone should be too surprised."
...The convoy of nanny cars drove smoothly away from the hospital.
In less than an hour's drive, Shi Sui returned to the mountaintop mansion where Old Mrs. Zhou used to live.
This is an old house that has been around for many years. Even though it has been urgently renovated and cleaned, its outdated design still looks a bit shabby compared to the newly built or rebuilt villas nearby.
However, location is still the most important factor for housing.
Although this old house is dilapidated, the area of the garden reaches 3,000 square meters. In H City, where every inch of land is valuable, it is worth a full 400 million yuan, accounting for 40% of Mrs. Zhou's 1 billion inheritance.
According to the agreement between Shi Sui and Lawyer Shen, her second brother Zhou Xin and fourth brother Zhou Wenhua were already waiting for her at the house.
"Miss Zhou, there are stairs here, please be careful with your steps."
The housekeeper held Shisui's arm and gave her careful instructions.
Ms. Zhou...
It's obvious that this name came from the lawyer girl.
That's right.
This is the highly valued effect that Shisui wants.
She walked into the entrance hall of the mansion, walked around the 8-meter-high giant gilded jade carved screen, and came to the magnificent reception room.
On the left and right, the two brothers Zhou Xin and Zhou Wenhua sat on each side, both of them had stern faces and did not communicate at all.
"sister--"
They looked at Shisui at the same time.
The second brother Zhou Xin is 72 years old this year. He is relatively tall, but his hair is gray and his face and hands are covered with age spots. He is wrapped up like a dumpling indoors, wearing a cotton hat and a cane beside him, which shows that he is not very strong.
The 65-year-old fourth brother Zhou Wenhua looks short, but he is in good spirits and looks healthy.
In addition to them, Lawyer Shen and his team were also present.
What a wealthy family.
Even a meeting between siblings involves a lawyer.
"Second brother, fourth brother! It's been over twenty years now, and it should have been me, your younger sister, who personally visited your residence. But now you've made your brothers come all the way here. I'm inconsiderate."
Who doesn't know how to say polite words?
Shisui put on a good show and shut their mouths first.
Fourth brother Zhou Wenhua had the same poor reaction ability as Shi Sui had seen in the magazine. He was frightened and looked hesitant, as if he wanted to say something but stopped.
The second brother, Zhou Xin, leaned on a cane, his hands trembling as he sobbed, "Sister... We're already this old, and we see each other less and less each time. Why are you still saying such things?! If I could see you well, I would fly across the world to see you!"
The sincerity of his words and the excitement of his emotions almost made people forget the serious lawyers in the room...
After the second brother Zhou Xin started this, the fourth brother Zhou Wenhua followed up with a few words with similar meanings.
Such a rare grand scene as a brother and sister reunion has to be pretended.
Besides, we are not robots. No matter how suspicious we are in private, there is always some family affection.
Shi Sui exchanged pleasantries with Mrs. Zhou's two brothers.
Looking back, they lived together on this land when they were young.
In a sense, the house owned by Old Mrs. Zhou can be considered the ancestral home of the Zhou family.
Old Mrs. Zhou's parents bought this land a long time ago and built a luxury house.
Later, my brothers got married one after another and moved away.
After Mrs. Zhou was rescued from the kidnappers, her father paid a large sum of money to hire a Feng Shui master to redesign the house and renovate it inside and out, just to make his daughter live comfortably and to make her mental illness heal as soon as possible... Unfortunately, in the end, his wish was not fulfilled, and her father could only leave the house to her as a place to live.
...As they talked about the past, the tone of second brother Zhou Xin's words gradually became sarcastic.
"You're the only one among us siblings who hasn't married or had children. So I can understand why you chose to meet my third brother's two daughters instead of us at the hospital... You treat them like your own children, right?"
hehe.
First courtesy, then force. Now that we have discussed family ties, it is time to talk about interests.
The two brothers had obviously received the news from the scene where Tokiho was discharged from the hospital, and knew that Tokiho had expressed in front of so many reporters that she wanted to join the army of "dividing the family property."
The second brother, Zhou Xin, said with some sorrow and grief, "Sister, let's let Lawyer Shen explain the property situation to you first. Are you unhappy? But even brothers have to settle accounts. Besides, the Zhou Trust Foundation was established by Dad before he died, and everything is done according to the rules... You don't have to fight or fight for your share of the property. It will be handed over to you in full. Don't listen to outsiders' nonsense!"
Fourth brother Zhou Wenhua also followed suit: "That's right! Those two sisters don't follow the rules... Especially the younger sister Zhou Shiya, who messes around all day long. Don't listen to their nonsense. They're already married to other men, and yet they're still meddling in our Zhou family's affairs. They're truly greedy!"
Yo.
It's quite interesting.
Zhou Shiya hinted that Zhou Xin was involved in her father's death. Zhou Xin and Zhou Wenhua then accused the sisters of being unruly.
Shi Sui lowered her head and smiled faintly, asking a soul-searching question.
"Since Second and Fourth Brothers both emphasize 'rules' so much... then is the rumor that you two are fighting over the inheritance and are now enemies true?"
"this……"
The two old male brothers who had just been on the same side to criticize their niece and sister fell silent at the same time.
They had indeed been at odds for a long time.
The last time we met outside the company was last year, at the funeral of Mrs. Zhou’s third brother.
The fundamental reason is that the second brother Zhou Xin has been in charge of the core business of Dahe Group for many years, but he is in poor health now and cannot take care of too many things, so he needs to designate a successor.
Although Dahe Group is a family business, it implements a board of directors system, and the appointment and removal of important positions require collective voting by board members.
Zhou Xin naturally hoped that his son would take over the baton, but unfortunately there was no one capable enough, and the people supported by the board of directors always failed to meet the standards.
Zhou Wenhua's son, who was capable of standing on his own, was pressing on step by step.
As a result, the Dahe Group was divided into factions and undercurrents arose.
Competitors are even more eager to take advantage of the opportunity.
It can be said that the country is in chaos due to internal and external troubles.
Affected by this, Dahe Group's stock price has been depressed for a long time.
Things have gotten so chaotic that Shisui is not afraid of adding fuel to the fire.
In front of her two brothers, she called Lawyer Shen over.
"I've studied the documents you gave me in detail. The estate I inherited includes three subsidiaries of the Dahe Group. They're currently being run by a family trust, right?"
"Yes, including an import and export trading company, a—"
"Okay, I know which three companies they are." Shi Sui crossed her arms over her chest and raised her eyebrow. "Transfer all the companies to my name, and I'll run them myself. I've been sleeping for so many years, wasting my best years. I want to try to do things that I didn't have the chance to do before. Brothers, do you have any objections?"
