Chapter 2198 2200 [Long Chengbang passed away]
However, at the end of April, news came from Treasure Island.
The former Zonghua Inspector Long Chengbang died of a sudden heart attack.
The news spread back to Xiangjiang, and Long Jiwen immediately asked Xiang Nan for leave.
Xiang Nan knew that although Long Chengbang didn't want Long Jiwen long ago, Long Jiwen always recognized him as his father in his heart.
It's just that the father and daughter have a heart-to-heart relationship, so Long Jiwen dare not go back to Treasure Island.
Now that Long Chengbang is dead, with Long Jiwen's character, he definitely wants to give him a ride.
"Ji Wen, let me go back with you." Xiang Nan thought for a while.
He was worried that Long Jiwen might be bullied by her brothers and sisters when she returned to Treasure Island by herself.
Long Jiwen's brothers, sisters, and aunts are not good people, they are all ungrateful and mercenary, for money they even kidnapped Long Chengbang's eldest wife, not only extorting money but also killing people.
Because of this, Long Chengbang was furious and dismissed all his children and concubines. For so many years, I lived alone in isolation, so that no one was around when I had a heart attack, and I died immediately.
They even dared to attack their biological father, let alone a sister who had no blood relationship, so Xiang Nan wanted to protect her together.
Long Jiwen was naturally willing, and nodded with tears in his eyes.
Xiang Nan then returned to Baodao by plane with her.
…
Arriving at Long Chengbang's villa, Long Jiwen was stopped by someone as soon as he arrived at the door.
It turned out that Long Chengbang died of a heart attack and did not have time to make a will before her death, so her brothers and sisters all wanted to monopolize Long Chengbang's inheritance, and each invited a group of people to fight for it, making a good funeral a big one. chaos.
Although Long Jiwen was Long Chengbang's daughter, they still refused to let her in, lest she come in to fight for the inheritance.
"Big Brother, Second Brother, let me in." Long Jiwen shouted angrily.
"Are you also coming back to fight for the inheritance?" The people in the room looked at her and asked coldly.
"I don't want any inheritance, I'm just here to see Dad off for the last time." Long Jiwen said angrily.
She really didn't take Long Chengbang's legacy to heart.
On the one hand, her current annual salary is 500,000 Hong Kong dollars, which is enough for her usual expenses; on the other hand, for her, family affection is always more precious than money.
"Don't want any inheritance?! Who would believe you!" Her brothers and sisters refused to listen, insisting on keeping Long Jiwen out of the door, lest she participate in the division of the family property.
Seeing this, Xiang Nan had no choice but to call in.
He punched and kicked those people out of the house so that Long Jiwen could worship Long Chengbang.
…
When Long Jiwen arrived at the hall, he cried loudly when he saw Long Chengbang's coffin.
Then he put on sackcloth and filial piety to keep watch for his father.
Xiang Nan also bowed four times to Long Chengbang's coffin.
Although Fang Jinxin has grievances with Long Chengbang, it happened more than ten years ago after all.
What's more, in the play, Fang Zhanbo asked him to buy short on the day of the great miracle, which indirectly killed his life, and any revenge is considered revenge.
Now that death is the most important thing for a person, it is appropriate to bow four times.
After bowing, he stood beside Long Jiwen.
They continued to search Long Chengbang's villa, wishing they could dig it up and turn it upside down.
It turned out that after careful analysis, they all believed that Long Chengbang still had at least two or three million Hong Kong dollars in property, but they couldn't find where it was.
They searched inside and outside the house, tore down furniture and home appliances, and dug holes in the walls, but couldn't find any clues, which made them jump and scold their mothers anxiously.
"Where did the old man hide the money? I'm really mad at him. He's so stingy when everyone is dead."
"We searched the whole house and found nothing. It must have been swallowed by him. If not, ask someone to dissect it."
"This old bastard, who didn't pull out a dime when he was alive, now has to bring money into the coffin when he dies. No wonder he died so badly!"
Long Chengbang's children cursed in front of his coffin, wanting to pull him out of the coffin and dismember him.
When Xiang Nan saw this, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
When Long Chengbang was the chief inspector of China, all the police officers and gangs in Hong Kong responded to him, and they followed his lead. I am afraid that even the governor of Hong Kong may not have his power.
But now, once he dies, even his own children are unwilling to look at him and shed a tear for him. It's really a cycle of heaven and law, and the retribution is not good.
…
The funeral lasted for three days.
Long Jiwen mourned in front of the coffin during the day and kept vigil in front of the coffin at night.
Xiang Nan was afraid that she would work too hard, so he stayed with her all the time, "Ji Wen, don't be too sad. In fact, your father is considered good. He died of a heart attack, and he didn't suffer much before he died. You cried too much. Great, your father is not at ease when he leaves."
"The old man is dead, it's useless for you to pretend to be filial, and he won't give you a dime."
"I think he didn't want us when we were only a few years old. Now you are still crying for him, how cheap!"
"Yeah, what kind of spirit is there for this old man? Is he worthy of us sons and daughters?"
When her brothers and sisters saw this, they stood aside and said sarcastically, they were all frightened back by Xiang Nan's look.
On the last day of the funeral, Long Jiwen sent Long Chengbang's coffin to the cemetery for burial.
After the burial, Long Jiwen returned to the villa, and saw his brothers and sisters, Erniang and Sanniang, who were still wreaking havoc in order to find Long Chengbang's inheritance.
The walls have been dug through, the floor has been torn off, and even the garden has been dug into pits and holes, but they can't find where Long Chengbang's savings are, and they are almost dying of anxiety.
Seeing this, Long Jiwen did not participate in it, but just picked up a family photo from the ground and prepared to take it back to Xiangjiang.
That was fifteen years ago, when Long Chengbang was still the inspector of Zonghua, and before he fled to Baodao, the whole family took a family photo together.
At that time, the aunt was still there, her mother was still there, and the whole family was there, living together and laughing so happily. It's a pity that now they all turn against each other because of money, and there is no unity and harmony in the photo.
…
"Zhanbo, let's go." Long Jiwen said to Xiang Nan.
She originally wanted to go back to Baodao, return to her father, and reunite with all her relatives.
But now, she doesn't think so anymore, her father has passed away, and her relatives have become enemies.
She will never return to this sad half step again.
Xiang Nan nodded and left with Long Jiwen.
"Zhanbo, I don't think money is really useful, just enough to spend. If Dad didn't have so much money, maybe our family is still harmonious and beautiful." Long Jiwen groped for the family photo and asked Xiang Xiang Nan sighed.
"Yes." Xiang Nan nodded.
Although poor and lowly couples suffer from everything, being rich is not necessarily a good thing. Property disputes between rich and powerful families have always been common. In order to fight for the inheritance, the lawsuit can even last for ten or twenty years. The brotherhood and the relationship between husband and wife have all disappeared, and relatives have become enemies.
Suddenly, Long Jiwen let out a surprised "Huh".
