When Nan Jinming and Chu Xiaoran arrived at the Chu family, there were quite a few people gathered at the door.

Perhaps it was the elders of the family who came. After all, they were all people of high seniority, and the Chu family attached great importance to the relationship between the sect and the family, so it was expected that they came to see Chu Lianqin off.

When the two people arrived, the crowd of people standing at the door of the Chu family turned their eyes to them.

Today, Nan Jinming put on her newly made clothes, looking full of energy. Her hair was also groomed, with a silver crown on her head and a high ponytail. Coupled with her sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, she looked completely different from the scholarly look of yesterday, and looked a little oppressive.

Although Nan Jinming was wearing coarse cloth clothes yesterday, it couldn't hide her temperament. She always had a sense of majesty without even getting angry.

"Hey~ What happened today? Did you get up late or what? Didn't you say yesterday that you would come to get back your things? You came so late, I thought you weren't coming today."

Nan Jinming saw Gu Yanshu standing at the door at a glance. He did not have a good impression of this man. Although he looked weak and seemed to know a few words, he had a vicious mind.

He is obedient to his own son.

Not only does he fail to distinguish right from wrong, he also helps the tyrant to commit atrocities.

Now that his woman is dead, he still has to rely on his son for support. I don’t know what’s the point of living like this.

Nan Jinming disdained to talk to such people, but the people in front of them kept staring at them.

She knew that Chu Xiaoran couldn't stand such a sight, so she took his hand and wanted to walk inside.

"It's an unfortunate time to come. Mother has already been put in the coffin."

Hearing Chu Zixuan's sarcastic words, Chu Xiaoran stopped and looked at him calmly. He curled the corners of his lips and said, "As long as my mother's coffin has not been buried, even if it has been buried, I am qualified to see her off."

Chu Zixuan had no way to change the fact that Chu Xiaoran was the eldest son of the Chu family. Even though he had held this identity for so many years, when he heard him say this, he could not find a way to refute it for a moment.

He should have been dealt with earlier. It was also my father's fault for being too soft-hearted and always afraid of being blamed by my mother. But this man killed his own father when he was born. Such an unlucky person should not stay in the Chu family.

"Since the Chu family's aunt is here, I will make everything clear. I am here to let everyone do justice for us."

Chu Xiaoran set his eyes on the oldest woman in the crowd. The clothes this woman was wearing were very exquisite. They were all made of relatively soft fabrics and were very luxurious. Her silver-white hair was neatly tied and had many hairpins inserted in it.

Chu Lianqin also has a very high status in the family. After all, she is also a business genius. Although the Chu family has been engaged in business for generations, people like Chu Lianqin are indeed rare.

The aunt of the Chu family did not say anything. She was also a person who could judge the situation and had some insight into the matter. She wanted to understand the situation roughly before making a decision.

"Chu Zixuan, I am the legitimate eldest son of the Chu family. You are a bastard brought in by a second wife. How can you be qualified to inherit the Chu family's property? Besides, you are not included in the family tree."

The Chu family's great aunt is a very retro person. She always thinks that blood relationship is the most important. If there is no blood relationship, one has no right to touch the Chu family's property.

But she never thought about who owned the Chu family's property.

All this money was earned by the elders when they were young. The Chu family has the power it has today because the elders at that time seized the opportunity and realized that they could get rich quickly by engaging in business.

People nowadays are just following in the footsteps of their elders, moving forward step by step, following in the footsteps of their elders, and slowly expanding their business map step by step.

But who could have thought that a business genius like Chu Lianqin could fail because of love?

The Chu family's aunt always thought that Gu Yanshu was a vixen, which was why she had seduced Chu Lianqin's heart into this state and brought in an illegitimate child.

Although everyone privately speculated that Chu Zixuan's true identity was actually Chu Lianqin's biological son, no one could verify this, so he was not included in the family tree.

After all, even if a child born in an unclear way is brought into the Chu family and given the surname Chu, what does it matter? A bastard is still a bastard after all.

The others all had their own ideas, thinking about how to divide up the remaining money from Chu Lianqin. After all, the money Chu Lianqin left behind could allow them to live comfortably for a long time.

"Xiao Ran is right. You said you have the suicide note left by Lian Qin. However, the rules of this family are already here. Which is more important, the rules of this family or the words of the dead?"

The person standing nearby and saying this was an ordinary-looking middle-aged man. He stretched out his hand to support the Chu family's grandmother, his body swaying a little. After all, he was old, so looking at the wrinkles on his face and his thin stature, it seemed that he was quite scheming when he said this.

Chu Xiaoran looked at the man in front of him who was speaking for him and couldn't help but sneer in his heart. This man was the son-in-law of Aunt Chu. Not only did he speak harshly, but he also liked to stir up trouble. Aunt Chu naturally liked him the most, as if he was filling her mouth with honey.

"Well, what are you talking about here? You think we are orphans and widows and are easy to bully, right? These are all the assets that Lian Qin worked hard to save up during his lifetime, and you are just taking them away for free?"

Chu Zixuan stared at the old man and the young man in front of him. The aunt of the Chu family hadn't said anything yet, and she didn't look like someone who was easy to deal with. After all, he had heard his father say that this woman was the first one to stand up and oppose his mother marrying his father.

What do you care about most about the family's reputation? It's just that you can't stand seeing others do well.
