"Do you think there's anything about me that deserves your respect?"
Seeing Wang Tao ask, Shen Xiaonan rarely put away his smile. He glanced at Wang Tao and said slowly.
"The world is bustling with people. There are many who control others and few who control themselves. My uncle is the person who can best control himself."
Wang Tao was stunned for a moment as he chewed on Shen Xiaonan's words, and suddenly smiled. He looked at Shen Xiaonan with admiration.
"Although my uncle likes to visit the garden, he gets up at dawn every day, lunch is always at noon, and dinner is always at sunset. And the only person in the Shen family that I can't understand at all is my uncle. My last wish before his death is that You are the head of the house."
Shen Xiaonan said it sincerely.
Wang Tao's mind moved, and he suddenly understood.
Shen Jianmin must have recognized my identity and insisted on doing this. But I can't be the head of the family!
Not to mention that I have no interest in doing business, and I know nothing about it. What’s more, once I lose my superficial ordinaryness, how can I cultivate my state of mind?
"First, let's talk about what's going on with the Shen family now?"
Wang Tao slumped on the sofa without any scruples, eyes half closed. Shen Xiaonan is a smart and low-key person who can be of great use.
Shen Xiaonan hesitated for a moment, and then told the story about the Shen family.
It turned out that half a month after Shen Jianmin's death, the Shen family held a family meeting. Shen Yan and Shen Aobing proposed to make Wang Tao the head of the Shen family in accordance with their will.
They all knew that Wang Tao was not dead, and was taken away by the tomb keeper to become his apprentice. They only claimed that his uncle had gone back to his parents' home to visit relatives.
Naturally, Shen Xin would not agree. On the one hand, he was not at the scene of the incident, and on the other hand, how could he tolerate an unlearned person as the head of the family? He would only accept Shen Aobing or himself as the head of the family.
Shen Chao also disagreed, for the same reason.
Although Shen Yan was reluctant, she still chose to obey her last wish. Only Shen Aobing fully supported Wang Tao.
Since then, the Shen family has had several discussions with no results, and the gap between them has become wider and wider.
At this time, Shen Naochun was paying homage to his grandfather and was also at home. Thinking about the Shen family's huge property, it was a lie that he was not moved.
Coupled with the encouragement of his Beijing girlfriend Zhu Xiaojing, Shen Naochun took action.
He first successfully persuaded Shen Xin and Shen Chao to support him in becoming the head of the family. Then he followed his girlfriend's plan and suppressed Shen Aobing and Shen Yan on charges of murder and misappropriation of company property.
After all, these two people hold important positions in Shenjia Pharmaceutical.
Nowadays, Shen Family Pharmaceutical and Shen Family are divided into two factions.
One is the royalist faction headed by Shen Aobing, and the king-killing faction headed by Shen Naochun.
For this reason, Shen Aobing also moved out of the Shen family to a private residence outside.
"Shen Naochun's girlfriend is called Zhu Xiaojing. I heard that she has some relationship with the Zhu family in Beijing."
Shen Xiaonan said with a solemn expression.
"From Yanjing?"
Wang Tao asked doubtfully.
"Yes! You must know that any family that is somewhat famous in Yanjing is more terrifying than the Yuan family in the provincial capital. If this is true, I am afraid that no one in our Qushui City would dare to help you."
"If I really want to revitalize the Shen family, I don't need anyone's help."
Wang Tao said calmly, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
Shen Xiaonan was surprised in his heart, but his face showed no change.
He was not sure whether Wang Tao was bragging or if he was really capable. He preferred to believe the latter.
"You go and inform the Shen family that I'm back, and also inform Shen Aobing. I'm going to take a shower and change clothes."
Wang Tao said lightly. He suddenly understood that if the Shen family wants to split, then it will split. At worst, he will support a Shen family.
Humph! With my knowledge of ancient medicine, I can make even a beggar a rich man in the country.
Wang Tao thought proudly.
Not long after, he returned to his original residence. Everything was still the same, except for a little dust.
After taking a shower, he put on his pajamas and was shaving when a sound of knocking on the door startled him.
The door was kicked open, and a pretty and angry face barged in. It was Shen Aoqing.
As soon as she heard that Wang Tao was back, she ran over impatiently.
Shen Aoqing looked at the bearded Wang Tao and said with a slight hum.
"You're finally back from the dead, hum! Do you know that because of you, our Shen family is about to be turned upside down. As a result, I can't study well, and I have to run around to mediate conflicts."
"It's okay, I'm back, everything will pass."
Wang Tao said without surprise. He put some foam on his beard, took out the razor and walked to the makeup mirror to shave.
"Well! As long as you say you don't want to be the head of the family, the second sister won't insist."
Hearing Wang Tao's straightforward words, Shen Aoqing's face improved a little.
With a slightly red face, she buttoned her clothes and walked behind Wang Tao, and asked a little embarrassedly.
"Do you really accept a great master as your master?"
"My master is indeed a great master, what's wrong?"
Wang Tao asked doubtfully.
"Then you're back, what about him?"
Shen Aoqing asked quietly.
"Guarding the tomb is just a promise, and it is not tied to the Shen family. He usually goes out to travel and visit friends."
Wang Tao immediately understood Shen Aoqing's little thoughts.
She has seen the bravery of great masters several times and has become deeply in love with him.
"Oh! Didn't I come back with you?"
Shen Aoqing's tone was unusually low, and her whole body seemed to have lost all strength.
"How old is he? Does he have a wife? Is he good-looking? And how did he become the tombkeeper?"
Shen Aoqing asked one after another.
"He is an old man, over sixty years old, but he is well-kept and looks like he is in his forties. He has a kind face and kind eyes. He is very ordinary. He must have been widowed. He often likes to travel alone."
Wang Tao talked nonsense in the hope of scaring Shen Aoqing away.
"You're in your forties, so you're only twenty years older than me? You're widowed, so that's great."
Shen Aoqing murmured, which made Wang Tao's face twitch.
Should I say ninety? It looks like eighty.
Wang Tao regretted and thought, he never dreamed that Shen Aoqing was already so infatuated. If the great master was as young as himself, Shen Aoqing would be willing to be a concubine.
"Then will he come back to see you?"
Shen Aoqing asked guiltily.
"No! He saved me, taught me some boxing and medical skills, and then wandered away, otherwise I wouldn't have turned into a beggar and come back."
Wang Tao said as he shaved off the last piece of his beard. He washed his face and turned to look at the disappointed Shen Aoqing.
Shen Aoqing was stared at by Wang Tao, and she stared back fiercely, but when she raised her eyes and saw Wang Tao's face, her eyes suddenly froze.
He seemed to be getting more and more handsome and manly. In an instant, Shen Aoqing's chest was pounding.
"Why is there something on my face?"
Wang Tao asked doubtfully, then he leaned on the mirror and looked left and right, but he didn't find any dirt.
"Can you help me with that?"
Wang Tao took out the electric clipper and looked at Shen Aoqing sheepishly.
Seeing Shen Aoqing looking at him doubtfully, he said again.
"I'm used to short hair, but this long hair is really uncomfortable. I can't push it cleanly from behind by myself. Can you help me push it?"
"But I don't know how to cut my hair?"
Shen Aoqing said and walked behind Wang Tao.
Wang Tao sat down in front of the mirror, put a scarf around his neck, and said.
“You don’t need to know how to cut hair, just put the comb on your scalp and push the hair clipper on the comb.”
