"You were just a gun in his hand from the beginning. He used you for his own ends. Do you really think that you can continue to enjoy yourself in front of the head of the Hu Clan? Well, I tell you, it can't be. One day soon that man will find you and tear you out of your position as head of the household, and make you homeless like a stray dog. When that day comes... no one will care about you even if you cry and regret! "
Faang Cheng looked at the shocked Young Master Hu and continued to provoke him with his words.
Young Master Hu stared at Faang Cheng with his mouth agape, as if he had yet to fully digest Faang Cheng's words. It was a long time before he closed his mouth, drew himself together a little, and spoke slowly, as if he were remembering something.
"He told me... that my father was not satisfied with me. He always scolded me in front of his friends! He said that I was spoiled and couldn't become a genius. If the Hu Clan fell into my hands, I am afraid it would be ruined! So... he said that after I die, he will never hand over the Hu Clan to me! To be honest, when I first heard those words, I didn't really care about it, and I didn't really believe it! But... But then he told me... "
At this point, Young Master Hu turned his head and looked at Butler Hu, who had been standing beside the coffin of the Hu family's old patriarch.
"That man told me that my father had intended to give the Hu family to Housekeeper Hu, and said something... said that Housekeeper Hu was probably a romantic debt my father had when he was young, and that... that he had kept Housekeeper Hu by his side all these years, and had taught him and raised him as if he were his own son, in order to elect an heir between us. But now it seems to me that my father thinks he is more suitable to take over the position of the head of the Hu family, and that he is going to pass it on to him, while I am left with a house and a shop to fend for myself. Tell me, tell me, how do you want me to choose? If it were you... What would you do? "
The more Young Master Hu spoke, the more agitated he became. The more he spoke, the more he found it difficult to control his emotions. His voice became louder and louder.
Among the people present, other than Faang Cheng and Yu Yien, Old Madam Hu and Butler Hu were dumbstruck. From the looks of it, they had no idea what Young Master Hu was talking about.
In fact, not to mention Madam Hu and Butler Hu, even Faang Cheng and Yu Yien were shocked by what Young Master Hu said! However, their shock was different from that of Madam Hu and Butler Hu! Old Madam Hu probably didn't even know that someone suspected that this Steward Hu was the illegitimate child of the Hu family's old patriarch, and Steward Hu probably didn't expect that someone would actually say that the Hu family's old patriarch handed the Hu family over to him, and that this matter had even become the fuse that caused the Hu Young Master to frame the Hu family's old patriarch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Faang Cheng and Yu Yien were surprised to find that Hu Young Master actually believed his words! This Hu Young Master... Was his brain really not enough, or was the trust between him and his father really so fragile? A stranger's provocation had actually made Hu Young Master take the bait so easily!
"That person said so, and you really believe it?"
Yu Yien could not help but ask in disbelief!
"Why wouldn't I believe him? In this family, no matter how big or small the matters are, my father never consults me. He always consults with that Butler Hu. He left everything to Steward Hu. There are many things in the family that I don't know, but Steward Hu always knows everything! No matter where my father goes, he will bring Steward Hu with him. When he doesn't bring me, he will bring Steward Hu with him. Think about it. If you hear what he said and see what happened, will you believe what he said to me? "
Young Master Hu's face was full of grievance, and his voice trembled as he said these words. In fact, he still cared about his father's impression and thoughts of him, but... Perhaps it was because of a lack of communication between father and son, but there was indeed something wrong with their relationship! Not exactly whose problem it was, but both father and son!
"Young Master, you... you..."
When Steward Hu heard Young Master Hu's words, he suddenly became excited. He seemed to have a lot to say, but he didn't know where to start! He took out an exquisite brocade box from his pocket with trembling hands. He opened the brocade box with trembling hands. Inside the box was a piece of paper that had been folded many times.
Steward Hu carefully unfolded the paper and showed it to the public.
"What is this?"
Young Master Hu frowned and looked at the piece of paper in Butler Hu's hand. On it... were words that he was very familiar with. It was the words of his father, the Old Patriarch Hu!
"This is... the Old Patriarch's will!"
Steward Hu said slowly with a trembling voice!
Hearing him, everyone couldn't help but get closer to see what was written on it. Even Madame Hu moved closer to see what was written on her husband's will!
However, when everyone saw what was written on the will, they all had a complicated expression on their faces! Faang Cheng and Yu Yien had expressions of regret, Madam Hu had an expression of grief and despair, Butler Hu had always had an expression of grief and indignation, and Young Master Hu... was stunned. He immediately covered his face and cried, his cries filled with regret and self-reproach that could not be concealed.
It turned out... The will made it very clear that after the Hu family's patriarch left, all of the Hu family's business was inherited by his only son, Young Master Hu. Butler Hu had to assist Young Master Hu until he was able to handle all the matters of the Hu family on his own! After that, Steward Hu would get a courtyard and a shop to enjoy his old age!
