Chapter 36

Zheng Dingzhou's illness seemed to be getting worse. Zheng Bang and Zheng Ling would visit him several times a day, but it was useless except to see the pale and blue face, or muttering to himself when he had a high fever. .

Zheng Bang has sought out all the top doctors with excellent medical skills, but the answer he got is basically the same - resign to fate.Basically, it means that there is no help.Although as far as the current situation is concerned, what the doctor said is not wrong at all, and Zheng Dingzhou's situation is indeed very bad, but a good-looking person will die in a blink of an eye. Who can accept it calmly?What's more, it's his own close relatives.

The two brothers inevitably had a quarrel——

"Look at your good deeds? You recruited that white-eyed Langmu Village! Hmm? How do you want to explain it? It's all about you. It's all about you that caused our Zheng family to end up like this..."

"Brother, I was wrong"

"Do you think you can make up for your mistakes with one sentence? Ah!"

"Then what do you want me to do?"

"Xiao Shan is Shen Ziyi, do you think I'm a fool? If it weren't for you, how could we have offended the Shen family? If you weren't so capricious back then, how could Dad be so angry?..." Zheng Bang said with a single brain, Now he has lost the wealth and power that he has been thinking about for so many years, and he is about to lose his most respected father. He looks like he is going crazy.Apart from blaming Zheng Ling over and over again, he actually didn't know what he should do.

"So what? Do you think that without Xiaoshan's Shen family, we would be let go? You should know that Dad's illness is due to overwork, isn't that what the doctor said?" Zheng Ling's voice became smaller and smaller, gradually I have no confidence.

"Whether it matters or not, you know in your heart"...

……

This was not the first time that such a quarrel had occurred. As Zheng Dingzhou's condition worsened, Zheng Ling's original argument became pale, and gradually he just apologized, but his apology was never forgiven by anyone.

He became the target of the family's public criticism, and every appearance provoked a wave of criticism against him.No one told him what to do, and no one wanted to listen to what he had to say.All that came to his mind were the familiar faces, but those faces were not as pleasant as usual, but sneered at him, and although they praised him in their mouths, their eyes shot flames at him.

Those emotions that had nowhere to vent fell on him, and he didn't have to do anything, just listen to those sarcastic remarks. He just had to wait, wait until those angry black emotions gradually faded away, and wait for him to be trampled on. into the mud, and then white flowers can bloom again like those lotus seeds.

In fact, these are nothing to Zheng Ling, he has been able to face it calmly, but when he walked to his father's bed, the mother who was guarding the bed turned her head and didn't even look at him, she thought he was already extremely hard My heart still hurts a little.

Am I really wrong?For the first time, he seriously thought about this question.

Living up to expectations, Zheng Dingzhou died within a few days.

The funeral was held very low-key, and only some old friends of Zheng Dingzhou and some business partners who had been in business for many years were invited, and most of these people Zheng Ling also knew.

On the black photo is that person's usual aggressive and confident smile, which is too familiar.I don't know, the circles of my eyes are a little moist.

Below the photo is a group of white flowers arranged in various shapes, arranged in a row horizontally, without any aesthetic feeling.

For some reason, Zheng Ling felt that this scene was a bit funny.

But the people are not as good as the sky. I don't know where the news was revealed. The number of people who came to express their condolences was more than twice that of the people who were invited. The funeral turned into a living discussion meeting.The huge auditorium suddenly became a little crowded.

The most astonishing thing was that the man who just fought an annexation battle with the Zheng family came here as if nothing had happened.

This person was a bit flamboyant. He was originally attending someone's funeral. On a day when the whole world was in mourning, that person walked in with a few vicious people proudly, causing a lot of people to stop.

Hearing the bursts of discussion, the man's expression didn't change at all, he just walked with more air.

"Is it from the Shen family? Why do people from the Shen family dare to come?" A young man in a suit said.

"Show off, what else can you do here? Look at that man, he looks like an upstart." A delicate female voice could not conceal the meanness in his tone.

A man next to him immediately came up, "You don't know, that Shen Ziyi is Shen Zhengwei's illegitimate son."

"Really, is it? I said why such a virtue?" The person next to him immediately picked up.

"Really, you look down on illegitimate children," said a man wearing black sunglasses next to him. His long hair was stuck to his forehead, and his hat covered half of his face. Originally, the young man wanted to say something What, but everyone noticed that the chill emanating from this person was chilling, so they all kept silent.

"I don't think he is such a person," a woman said suddenly, looking like a young lady.

"Miss Chen, people can't look at the surface," someone whispered beside him.

……

"What are you guys talking about?" At some point, Shen Ziyi had already arrived in front of him, and he kept smiling at the young man. Such a chiseled face should make people feel happy, but now the one who was asked But the young man seemed to be frozen, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.

The bald head patted the man's shoulder vigorously, but he didn't leave his hand. The man trembled a bit before he came back to his senses.

"Are you talking about our young master? It's such a happy chat." The bald man's smile was uglier than crying.

"No, no... You misunderstood, no, no, you may have misheard..."

"Ah, that's right, then next time I'll have to listen more clearly." The bald head said, but his hand increased his strength.

"Ah... there won't be a next time..." The man suppressed the pain, tried not to show it, but took a breath when he spoke.

More and more eyes were attracted by this gunpowder-filled scene.Shen Ziyi patted the bald man's hand on the young man's shoulder lightly, and said in a very apologetic tone: "Mr. Wang, I'm so sorry, my people are rude, please say hello to Manager Wang for me."

After hearing that, Mr. Wang's face immediately became ugly, cursing in his heart, thinking that he had caused trouble again.

After Shen Ziyi finished speaking, he smiled easily and left, as if nothing had happened just now.

Shen Ziyi swaggered towards the mourning hall, probably because the bald man acted too rudely, the crowd consciously made way for him.

There was a white flower pinned to Shen Ziyi's clothes, no matter how he looked at his face, he looked like he was smiling, and the whole scene looked very out of harmony.

He was about to hand over the bouquet of flowers in his hand, but his hand was grabbed. He raised his head and saw a pair of eyes full of sarcasm.The veins on Zheng Bang's face were bulging, and he was tightly clutching the wrist. People always remembered him as a down-to-earth, unsmiling person. Even those who knew him well, few had seen him. this expression.

"It's a great honor for Chairman Shen to have the time to attend my father's funeral."

Shen Ziyi's face was just smiling, and he couldn't see clearly what he was thinking under his crooked eyes.

"I have always respected Chairman Zheng, and it is a great honor to be able to attend his funeral."

He slowly extended his other hand, but got no reply from anyone.The corners of his mouth were hooked, still smiling.

"I don't think it's necessary. Chairman Shen, please go back. My father always taught me to be a gentleman and a villain." The meaning of Zheng Bang's words is already obvious. No matter how thick-skinned Shen Ziyi is, he can no longer pretend to be leisurely. look.

He cupped his hands, and just about to say something, a person flashed out beside him.

"Brother, you don't have to do this, he doesn't have any malicious intentions"

Hearing this sentence, Zheng Bang's face turned even uglier, and his emotions seemed to be ignited suddenly, "What are you talking about? You are talking to me like this for an outsider, or he—" Zheng Bang pointed to Shen Ziyi That half-smile face, "If it wasn't for him, would my father's illness have gotten worse? If it wasn't for his threat, would our family business have been annexed so easily? If it wasn't for him..." Zheng Bang became more and more excited as he spoke. , the people in the hall seemed to have heard some important news, and they started talking.Zheng Ling didn't refute, and looked down at the ground.For a while, noisy discussions erupted one after another.

And those who know some inside information don't look very good, you look at me, I look at you, no one knows what to say.It turns out that this kind of "condemnation" against Zheng Ling was only "secretly", but now Zheng Bangming put it on the table and said that no one can see the naivety of Zheng Bang's behavior, but he advises No one wants to do such a thankless job.

At this moment of confusion, Mrs. Zheng came out from nowhere. Her eyes were a little dull, and her eyes were red. A person who was originally a little rich has now become very thin. She was originally a beautiful woman who still has charm. Now it seems that there is only a bone left. Others can tell that she is too sad, but they are really surprised by this huge change.

"Have you had enough trouble?" After speaking, those bony hands hit Zheng Bang's face.

Zheng Bang covered his face as if he couldn't believe it, his eyes stared straight.And Zheng Ling still lowered his head, not saying a word.

"I'm sorry, I made everyone laugh." There was a sense of sadness in the woman's helpless tone.After finishing speaking, the woman left, and the sunlight stretched the figure very long.

Shen Ziyi has been watching with cold eyes. Before he came, he really didn't expect Zheng Banghui to have such a big opinion on him, and naturally he didn't expect to see such a good show of cooking beans and burning Osmanthus. He thought, it was not in vain.

The rest of the funeral was successfully completed. This may become a piece of news, but after a long time, except for a few people involved in the incident, no one else will remember such a small episode that happened.

At the end, Shen Ziyi chatted casually with those "useful" people, and sent out a few business cards from time to time, even the expression on the bald head was not so scary, showing a polite look.Zheng Bang and Zheng Ling had already left, and Shen Ziyi stared at the place where they had just stood for a long time, wondering what he was thinking.

When he walked out of the auditorium, he took off the small white flowers on his clothes, slowly crushed them, and the white petals drifted away with the wind.
