He sneered and raised his voice, "Lawyer Bai, please help me draft a will. If something happens to me, all my property will be inherited by my two children. Before the children come of age, my younger brother Pei Yang will be appointed as the guardian."
Baichuan didn't waste any words and immediately took out a pen and paper to start drafting.
The faces of the Chen family members were as colorful as an overturned color palette.
Seeing that the matter was already settled, Chen's mother played the emotional card again, "Wen Ping, you have been married to the Chen family for so many years, and we have treated you well. Xiaoliang also respects you as the eldest sister-in-law. Can you bear to see him have nothing?"
"Do you want me to go against Chen Yi's last wish?"
Mother Chen was speechless.
Two lines of tears rolled out of her eyes. "What a sin I have committed to raise such a useless thing. Before he died, he was thinking about you, an outsider, and was afraid that you would suffer."
Pei Wenping had been holding back her tears for a long time, but they finally burst out at this moment.
Last May, Chen Yi actually asked her:
—If I died tomorrow, would you forgive me?
——Stay away and don’t get in my way.
She didn't know what Chen Yi's mood was at that time, but at this moment she just felt so heartbroken that she couldn't breathe.
According to Pei Wenping's request, Bai Chuan quickly drafted the will.
After reading it, Pei Wenping asked the other party to prepare a formal will document according to the contents of the draft.
Seeing that Pei Wenping was serious, Yi Ling could no longer sit still.
"It's fine for you to leave the money to the two children, but we are their uncle and aunt. Why do you give the custody to your mother's family?"
"I don't trust you."
Pei Wenping's words made Yi Ling look as ugly as if she had swallowed a fly.
"For the sake of our relationship as sisters-in-law, I advise you to be content. Chen Yi left a lot of things to the children's grandparents. You and Xiaoliang should serve them well, and you will naturally benefit from it in the future. Don't set your eyes on other people's money."
On the surface, Chen Yi's will seems to be very cruel to his younger brother Chen Liang.
But some things need to be thought about more deeply.
Now that Chen Yi is gone, the old couple can only rely on their son Chen Liang.
Since the money is in the hands of the old couple, Chen Liang and his wife will naturally try their best to please them.
But on the other hand, if the money is pocketed by the young couple early on, whether they will care about the life and death of the old couple in the future will depend entirely on their conscience.
"Alright, no one should say anything more. Since this was Xiaoyi's last wish, let's just leave it like this."
Perhaps he understood the eldest brother's intention, but Chen's father made the final decision to end the division of the inheritance. Even though Yi Ling was unwilling, she had to endure it.
…
Under Gu Ming's operation, the property left behind by Chen Yi was quickly settled.
The day when the dust settled happened to be the seventh day after Chen Yi's death.
Pei Wenping took her two children to the cemetery to pay tribute.
When we arrived, we happened to see the Chen family finishing their memorial service and preparing to leave.
Pei Wenping stood about ten meters away, not wanting to have any conflict with the Chen family at this time today.
"Go say hello to grandpa and grandma."
At her suggestion, the brother and sister walked to the grave to greet Mr. and Mother Chen.
Despite their many dissatisfactions with Pei Wenping, the old couple still loved their grandchildren very much and held their hands and talked for a long time.
After the Chen family left, Pei Wenping came to the tomb carrying the offerings.
"You know your stomach is not in good condition, but you still don't eat properly. You deserve to be sick."
Although he said harsh words, his eyes slowly turned red.
She bent down and placed the offerings she brought in front of the tomb one by one. "I brought a few dishes that you used to like. Try them."
After placing the offerings, he took out a towel to wipe the tombstone, while muttering: "No wonder you looked so much thinner during that time, and you didn't even tell me when you were sick."
"Just be well over there by yourself, don't worry about us, I'll take care of your parents for you."
The brother and sister knelt in front of the grave, listening to Pei Wenping's nagging and crying silently.
…
While Pei Wenping and the Chen family were fighting for the inheritance, something also happened in Shen Mingzhu's family.
Three years later, the house was robbed again.
This time, what was lost was not gold or silver, but the six platinum bags she had placed in the display cabinet in her bedroom.
The thief's method was very professional. He first staged a car accident to lure the nanny out to watch the fun, and then took the opportunity to sneak into the house and steal the bag.
Shen Mingzhu reported the case immediately and informed her relatives and friends one by one over the phone.
When they learned that the bag was lost, everyone seemed to comfort and sigh, but no one knew what they were thinking in their hearts.
However, no one mentioned coming to my house to look at my bags again.

"Finally I can have some peace and quiet for a while."
Seeing her relaxed and happy expression as if she had solved a big problem, Pei Yang couldn't help but ask, "Then won't you be able to use your treasures in the future?"
Shen Mingzhu said indifferently: "Why not? Outsiders don't know which bags I lost. At worst, I can just say I bought new ones."
It is true that there was a burglary in the house, but what was stolen were only counterfeits made by Shen Mingzhu. She had already put the real ones in the bank safe.
She is not stupid. What's the difference between keeping items worth over a million dollars at home and throwing a fat sheep into a wolf's den?
In addition, warned by the controversy surrounding Chen Yi's inheritance, she also made a will with Baichuan.
If anything unexpected happens to her, all the property under her name will be inherited equally by Pei Ziheng and Pei Tang.
Pei Yang asked her if she had considered leaving something for Shen Jianguo.
Shen Mingzhu replied: "I know the children I raised. Both the brother and sister are kind-hearted, responsible and capable people. They will not ignore their grandfather Shen Jianguo."
…
Time is like running water, once gone it will never come back.
Summer vacation is here again.
Winter and summer vacations are the happiest times for Pei Tang because he can see his brother Pei Ziheng.
However, while others had fun during the holidays, Pei Ziheng worked very hard.
After a year and a half of operation, his company successfully launched several good electronic products.
For example, MP3s, repeaters, electronic dictionaries, handheld game consoles, etc. are very popular among young people.
In addition to having an extremely high IQ, Pei Ziheng also possesses unique talents and means in business management.
While other companies put all their efforts into making a product perfect, he casts a wide net over the sea and makes whatever product can make money.
Since he couldn't do it himself, he poached relevant R&D talents from everywhere with high salaries.
It also pioneered the opening of brand experience centers in first-tier cities across the country, allowing electronics enthusiasts to try out all the company's products for free.
In this day and age, electronic products are not cheap, ranging from a hundred or two hundred to a thousand or two thousand or even more expensive. It is extremely rare to own one.
The experience center opened by Pei Ziheng has, to a certain extent, fulfilled the dreams of electronics enthusiasts.
Most importantly, through word of mouth among enthusiasts, the company's brand awareness and influence spread and increased in the country at a terrifying speed.
Seeing the benefits, other competitors rushed to imitate, but the results were far inferior to Pei Ziheng's future technology.
On the one hand, Pei Ziheng was willing to spend money to provide a free experience center with an environment comparable to that of a high-end club.
On the other hand, the products made by Pei Ziheng are more popular among young consumers in terms of appearance, performance and price.
Young people are full of energy and passion, and will spare no effort to brag about their favorite electronic products to those around them.
Under Pei Ziheng's efficient leadership, the company has rapidly expanded from 50 employees at its inception to over a thousand people. Production plants have been built one after another, and an office building that can accommodate 2,000 people is also under construction. (End of this chapter)
