Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart-Chapter 813 - 812: Little Sister Wants to Listen
"Did I not tell you this morning?" Chai Ziyang’s face changed, and he was slightly angry, saying, "The Family Head of the Wei Family has gone back on his word more than once or twice! What sinister move are they plotting this time!"
Thinking about it, he was even more furious, throwing the documents on the table with force, unwilling to say another word.
It was clear that he was quite angered by the Wei Family Head.
In fact, in recent days, the Feng Family has been negotiating with the Wei Family, dealing with such trivial matters.
However, the Wei Family Head is cunning and treacherous, without regard for honor, and reneges on his word. The younger generation, upon seeing this, feel ashamed to associate with them.
"Who knows... The Family Head says that this time the Wei Family is very difficult, and handling it is quite troublesome. They are determined to oppose us... This matter has been dragged on, with no progress, and the ancestral hall can’t be renovated, making everyone uneasy..."
The renovation of the ancestral hall is no small matter and must be resolved soon.
All the descendants of the Feng Family treat it as the foremost priority and desire for no slip-ups.
"Thinking about this matter makes me angry; being untrustworthy, where is the demeanor of a great family?" Chai Ziyang sat down on the sofa, his eyes filled with anger, scanning the room, only then noticing Gu Tong sitting on the side.
Chai Ziyang had a slight look of puzzlement on his face and said, "Who might this be...?"
At this time, whoever came to the house must be a relative, but after thinking it over and over, Chai Ziyang couldn’t recall anyone in the family that matched her description, leaving him momentarily stunned.
"I forgot to tell big brother, this is Auntie’s daughter, Gu Tong," Feng Wencheng finally introduced her.
"Aunt’s daughter..." Feng Wencheng calls her ’Auntie,’ so Chai Ziyang would call her ’Aunt.’ Although Feng Wencheng inherited Feng Ruyue’s surname, the terms for maternal cousins and paternal cousins are still different.
Chai Ziyang’s eyes widened, and his whole person was in shock, staring at Gu Tong without blinking. After a long time, he finally coughed and said, "Little, little sister, hello..."
The brothers of the Feng Family all had the same opening lines.
"Hello, big brother~" Gu Tong responded sweetly and said, "You brothers continue discussing your matters, don’t mind me."
In truth, if she really chatted casually with them, Gu Tong wouldn’t know what to say. She might as well let them chat while she enjoyed her leisure.
"How could that be? Sister coming is what matters," Chai Ziyang hurriedly waved his hand and said, "We are merely talking about trivial matters, nothing important, nothing important."
Feng Wencheng: "..."
Who was in a hurry, urging him every day, eager to get it done, yet now it’s suddenly nothing important?
Indeed, favoring women over men!
Gu Tong gave a dry laugh and said, "Actually, I also enjoy listening to trivial matters; it’s very interesting." It’s much better than sitting idly and exchanging pleasantries.
If the sister wanted to listen, Feng Wencheng, of course, would be willing to speak.
It’s just...
This matter with the Wei Family is indeed a troublesome one.
Thinking about it, he sighed and said, "I was talking to the third brother about the renovation of the old ancestral hall, which has been fraught with trouble, causing headaches."
"The old ancestral hall?" Gu Tong asked, puzzled. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
"Our Feng Family’s old ancestral hall, located far away in the Southern Suburb. It has existed since ancient times and enshrines our Feng Family’s ancestors from more than ten generations. I will find a suitable time to show you our Feng Family tree, and you will understand."
More than ten generations of ancestors—assuming each lived only fifty years—that would be at least five hundred years. And there are ancestors who lived into their eighties, so the history is indeed long-standing.
Longxing Country has always valued traditional filial piety, holding ancestors in great respect. In ancient times, family members would regularly visit the Ancestral Temple to worship. The older generation of families takes ancestral halls very seriously, viewing the remembrance of one’s roots as both an honor and a responsibility.
