Chapter 372 There's actually a successor?
Having harbored resentment for several years, Mr. Shen could no longer contain himself and exploded the moment he saw his eldest son dressed in fine clothes.
Just now, before his eldest son returned, he had advised his other sons not to interfere with the restaurant's business. He thought that if his eldest son's restaurant did well, they could also benefit and make some money. But now he had already put those thoughts out of his mind.
"You unfilial son, now that you've made it big, opened a fancy restaurant, and are living a life of luxury, you think your own father is dead? When you first started leading the villagers to grow medicinal herbs, you would at least come back twice a year, but these past two years you haven't even bothered to come back once. What's wrong with you? Are you afraid that your own father will eat and drink your food, or are you afraid that he'll become your crony?"
The youngest son slammed his hand on the table and immediately chimed in, "That's right! Our father is still alive, and you don't even bother to visit him. You don't serve or support your elders, you're heartless! How could Father have given birth to such a beast!"
Lin Xiaotang held her younger brother's hand, carrying the pastries she had just bought for him. The two siblings happily returned to the restaurant. Before they even entered the gate, they heard a commotion inside. She immediately recognized her uncle's loud voice and his vulgar words, and her brows furrowed deeply.
Ziheng was not yet three years old and was still very young. He looked up and said, "Big sister, there's a commotion inside."
Lin Xiaotang patted her younger brother's head and led him inside.
"Uncle, it's not your place to judge my father. No matter how bad he is, he's still your elder brother. You should know the importance of respecting elders."
Our Qianzhenlou restaurant has been operating in Dushui County for several years, and our customers know its reputation. If my father really had character issues, we wouldn't have been able to open this restaurant, let alone keep it open for long.
You've been to school, you know how to read and write, but have you forgotten all the classics? You actually call your own elder brother a beast! My father was born of my grandfather, so doesn't that mean you're calling my grandfather a beast? You're also my grandfather's son, so doesn't that mean you're a beast yourself?
The guests who came in one after another stopped looking for seats and gradually gathered around to watch the excitement.
"Hahaha, that's hilarious. Who calls their father a beast? Does that mean all sons are beasts too, you idiots..."
Mr. Shen and his son Shen Xiaochuan suddenly changed their expressions, their faces turning a deep purplish-red. They pointed at Lin Xiaotang with furious rage, their teeth clenched and their eyes filled with murderous intent.
"You brat! How can someone so young be so unruly? You have absolutely no manners!"
Startled, Xiao Ziheng immediately hid behind his sister. After hiding for a moment, he realized that his sister was a girl and that he should protect her.
So, he shuddered, mustered his courage, and stood in front of his older sister again to defend her.
"My sister isn't a scoundrel, you're the bad guys!"
Shen Xiaochuan said sarcastically, "Hey, who are you? You little brat dare to call us bad guys? Do you know that this restaurant is owned by my... boss?"
He was about to say that the restaurant was owned by his elder brother when he suddenly remembered that he and his father were criticizing his elder brother. He couldn't let his elder brother's morale be diminished and his own prestige be diminished.
Lin Xiaotang scoffed and said sarcastically, "Uncle, I'm already giving you a lot of face by calling you uncle. My brother has grown up so much. Does anyone in your Shen family know that there's a new member in the family? Does anyone recognize Xiao Heng when they see him?"
Since we have no real friendship, wouldn't it be better to just keep to ourselves and live our lives peacefully? Why come here to cause trouble again?
"This……"
Mr. Shen and his three sons who came with him were all dumbfounded!
The eldest son actually had a son?
...There's actually a successor?
The eldest son will definitely pass on the Thousand Treasures Pavilion to his son. Will the fathers and brothers still be able to get a share?
The group's excitement was instantly dashed, and the prospect of wealth and glory seemed a world away from them!
