Chapter XX
In the private room, Mo Junqiang and his wife, Wang Yan, sat at the main seat. Although it was Mo Junyi who was treating them, the seating arrangement was very particular.
Mo Junhua and his wife, Li Yu, were the first to act. Mo Junyi and Shen Yunyun were the second to act. The two empty seats were probably reserved for Mo Junbao and his wife.
The rest of the juniors were lined up in a row. Mo Duan, Mo Zheng, and Mo Mengyao left a spot for Mo Zihan.
There were no extra seats.
Did they really care about the seating arrangement? Then where did he put his mother, Guo Hua?
Guo Hua was the old lady that Mo Zihan was supporting, her grandmother.
In fact, in the past, her mother with Alzheimer's disease was not allowed to attend family banquets. Other than a few siblings, the old lady would stay at home alone. Why would she bring her to a restaurant for dinner?
Mo Junbao entered the room and looked at the crowd from the corner of his eyes. Then, he smiled at Mo Junyi." Is everyone here?"”
Mo Junyi nodded." Have a seat."”
Mo Junbao and Wang Fengying took their seats one after another. When they saw that there was only one empty seat left at the end, they immediately looked at Mo Zihan, who was standing at the door.
Everyone then noticed Mo Zihan, who was standing by the door with the old lady.
Wang Yan frowned." Why did you bring the old lady here?"”
"Waiter, bring another chair in.”Chen Tian Yun ordered.
The waiter who led the way quickly replied. He went to the next room and took a chair. He arranged it beside Mo Zihan and then took out a new set of cutlery from the cabinet.
Because there was an extra seat, a few juniors had to move to the side. They all looked unhappy. Only Mo Zheng was still smiling. Clearly, the joyous festival made him quite happy.
Mo Duan frowned and shouted at Mo Zihan unhappily," Why did you bring her here? Wasn't it cramped to fit all these people at a table? You smell like an old man!" As he spoke, he wrinkled his nose.
The old lady did have the smell of an old person. Mo Zihan couldn't put his finger on it, but he didn't think it smelled bad. The old lady was also quite clean. At least her white hair was neatly combed to the back of her head. Not a single stray strand was exposed.
Mo Zihan looked at Mo Duan coldly. She did not have a good impression of this person who indirectly caused Mo Zihan's death. If he was not her cousin in name, she would not mind twisting his head off to see what was inside.
Wang Yan didn't stop her son's inappropriate words. Mo Zihan believed that Mo Duan's arrogant and impetuous character was related to his mother who doted on him.
The dishes were all served, which meant that everyone had already ordered. There were no two 'free' places for Mo Junbao's family to order.
After the waiter left, Wang Yan took out a few small wine jugs from her bag. They were porcelain, wrapped in brown paper with a name printed on it. There was a red ribbon tied to the mouth of the bottle.
"It's a small clay pot. It's from a Moutai factory. I asked someone to buy a box of it and specially brought a few bottles for everyone to try!”She smiled and distributed the wine to everyone. She said," The alcohol content isn't high, but it tastes quite refreshing. People like me who don't know how to drink like it!”
Mo Junyi picked up a bottle and looked at it for a while. Then, he smiled and said," This wine is indeed not bad. It doesn't go to your head. I drank some when I was drinking with the leader.”
Hearing Mo Junyi's words, everyone also picked up their wine bottles and praised them. They said that this exquisite small wine bottle was very good.
Wang Yan was even more pleased. She said that if everyone drank well, she would ask someone to buy some for them later.
Mo Junbao didn't get any wine because Wang Yan only brought three bottles. The eldest, second, and third each had a bottle, leaving Mo Junbao and Wang Fengying sitting awkwardly at the side.
Mo Junbao glanced at the bottle from the corner of his eyes." I really don't like to drink white wine. Give me some beer later!"”
Wang Fengying pushed him and complained softly," Can't you be a little more mature? You'll die if you drink less!"”
"Women shouldn't talk so much!”Mo Junbao glared at Wang Fengying.
"Hehe, there's no rush to talk about the wine. Jun Bao, how's the proposal I gave you last time?”Mo Junhua rolled his eyes and put down the bottle.
He was here!
Mo Junbao's expression changed immediately." It's the Mid-Autumn Festival. Why are you bringing that up?!"”
"We should have figured this out yesterday. Jun Bao, you really have to tell us how to solve this matter.”Mo Junqiang, the boss, echoed.
Mo Junyi sat at the side expressionlessly. He and Shen Po Yun didn't seem to have any intention of stopping them.
Mo Zihan guessed that the three families should have already greeted each other this time, and Mo Junyi would not say anything to calm them down.
After all, even Mo Junyi would not be willing to ignore an item that was worth seven digits, right?
Mo Junbao raised his eyes." Are you guys done? Didn't I already tell you that it belongs to our family? Why do you still want something good?”
As he spoke, Mo Junbao could not hold back his temper and slammed the table. It was obvious that he could not suppress his anger.
"Go, go, go. You don't have to knock the table and break the chair with us! Let me tell you, I've consulted you about this matter. You won't be in the right even if we file a lawsuit! Do you know? Mom isn't dead yet, and this thing belongs to Mom! There's no reason for you to occupy it!" Mo Junqiang couldn't hold back his temper anymore. He glared at him and said in a deep voice with disgust.
"Then why did you leave Mom at my house? What is it?" Mo Junbao glared at her." Why don't you take care of the old lady? Are you still human? Why do you want to take care of my family's treasures?"”
Mo Junhua chimed in," Let's not talk about the old lady first. With so many sons here, the old lady can't possibly sleep on the streets, right? I only have one question for you. Are you going to split the chair or not?”
"Split my ass! Why? Let me tell you, Second Brother, I really won't fall for your tricks! Aren't you just thinking about my chair? If you knew it was valuable, why didn't you mention it? Are you trying to trick me?”Mo Junbao was so angry that his face turned red and his neck turned red.
Mo Junhua's eyes widened." Who cheated your chair? Who cheated your chair! I haven't even f * cking appraised it. How can I be sure that it's a treasure? If I had told you earlier, wouldn't you have been able to fly?”
Li Yu tugged at Mo Junhua, who snorted and shook off his wife.
Wang Yan glared fiercely at Mo Zihan. She had not forgotten what happened yesterday. Seeing that both parties had fallen out, she also shouted," Mo Junbao, let me tell you, your family can't take that treasure! Tomorrow, I'll find a lawyer to file a lawsuit. If you dare to sell that chair, you can wait to go to jail!”
Jail? Mo Junbao was angry and flustered.
He didn't know much, but what they said seemed reasonable. The house was in the old lady's name, and they hadn't even separated yet. He shouldn't be the only one who had the final say in the house.
Wang Fengying couldn't stand it anymore. She suppressed her anger and looked at Mo Junyi. She said solemnly," Third Brother, I know you value loyalty and are reasonable. Tell me, what should we do?"”
Mo Mengyao smiled proudly. In this family, the person in charge was still his father.
Mo Junyi had been sitting at the side drinking water. When he heard this, he pondered for a moment before he slowly said," The thing was discovered by Fourth Brother, and it has always been in Fourth Brother's house..."
Hearing this, Wang Fengying's face lit up, but Mo Zihan frowned slightly.
The other party said that it was 'placed' in the fourth brother's house, not something that belonged to him.
"It's just that Eldest and Second Brother are right. After all, Fourth Brother lives in Mom's house. It's equivalent to borrowing it. Therefore, Second Brother's idea was reasonable.”
"Personally, I won't be thinking about this thing. No matter how you split it, I can take it for free.”Mo Junyi said. He wasn't really interested in this thing, but his eldest and second brothers had talked to him for a long time yesterday. It was impossible for his fourth brother's family to monopolize this thing. Even if he was willing, his eldest and second brothers would definitely not agree.
It was better to split some of them so that everyone could have peace.
Mo Junyi thought so, but Mo Junbao could not do it. What was going on with the splitting now? They had already shed all pretense of cordiality, yet he still wanted to share the treasures with them? Wouldn't that mean that they had to lower their heads to them?
Mo Junbao, who had always wanted to save face, would never agree to such an unfair treaty. Moreover, his character was a bastard. He was not afraid of anyone if he fell out with them!
"Mom, what do you think we should do with this thing?”Mo Junbao suddenly turned to look at the old lady.
The old lady, who had been sitting there with a dull expression, slowly looked at Mo Junbao. Everyone was also stunned. It seemed that no one had thought of asking the real owner of this treasure.
