Chapter 584 The ancestral house is entrusted to you!
"Strictly speaking, these two calligraphy and paintings are not part of Mr. Ye's inheritance. Therefore, it is reasonable to leave them to Mr. Ye and are protected by law."
Lawyer Chen nodded and smiled at Ye Zhonghua.
He finally figured out that Ye Zhonghua was probably the one who was hostile to other families in this family.
However, for now.
Ye Zhonghua acted most like a person suffering from the pain of bereavement. The other brothers and sisters seemed to only want to get the inheritance, and the others didn't care at all.
"Everyone, do you have any opinions on this matter?"
Lawyer Chen looked around and said, "If you have any objections, you can raise them. Mr. Ye has told me that he can accept changes to the will as long as it is within a reasonable range."
"No...no."
Uncle, they have nothing to say.
Lawyer Chen has produced all kinds of certificates, and there are also videos and videos left by his father during his lifetime. Even if they are unwilling to give in, there is nothing they can do.
Even if they file a lawsuit, it is impossible for the people in the court to award the calligraphy and painting to them.
After all, it was bought by Ye Zhonghua with money in his early years and has nothing to do with them at all.
"Okay, let's continue."
Lawyer Chen nodded lightly and pressed the play button.
Grandpa took a sip of tea in the video and continued.
"Zhonghua, Xiaofan is very successful now, and your family's life is getting better and better. I have no regrets.
The second child is a little more narrow-minded and their eyesight is not as good as yours. I hope you can let go of your disdain for them in the future.
I have lived a whole life, and it was only when I was about to die that I realized: Family is more important than anything else, and they cannot be compared to anything outside of me..."
Grandpa talked a lot, mostly about the character flaws of several uncles and aunts, and made them blush.
At this time, Ye Zhonghua's mind was empty. He nodded in response to whatever his grandfather said, completely losing his opinion.
Mom was still angry and didn't notice grandpa's underlying meaning.
Ye Fan is a smart man, and he quickly understood that his grandfather hoped that his father could put aside the prejudices he had with his brothers and sisters.
However, when Ye Fan's family was desperate, each of them borrowed 100,000 yuan.
Although the interest rate is a bit higher than that of a bank, at least it is not worse than a loan shark.
Then, what grandpa seems to have told his father is worthy of scrutiny.
"Dad said that it's not like grandpa doesn't have money, so he shouldn't have to watch his eldest son and grandson's family become ruined.
Then the only thing holding him back is probably these uncles and aunts!"
Ye Fan touched his chin and frowned secretly: "Although my father and grandpa have not been in contact for several years, and it is understandable that he does not know grandpa's physical condition, uncle and the others should know!
They saw that their grandfather could not hold on for much longer, so they kept blocking his grandfather from taking the initiative to help their family tide over the difficulties. They were deeply afraid that the money they lent to their family would be wasted and they would not be able to get much inheritance in the future.
However, the uncle and aunt lent money to their father because of their connections with other families.
On the one hand, this can suppress grandpa's worries and let him know that his children value love and justice and support each other; on the other hand, it will stop his father's idea of continuing to take advantage of grandpa's assets!"
Ye Fan's mind raced, and combined with the performances of his two uncles and two aunts, he came to a conclusion that chilled him.
These people have been thinking about grandpa's assets since very early on.
They don't have the ability or the courage to make big money, so they plan to make a fortune from this.
Although grandpa is also a person who will live his whole life on a dead salary, his hobbies are extraordinary.
Not many people can collect so many genuine items at home these days!
Of course, the most valuable thing is not grandpa’s collection, but this ancient house!
With a large courtyard with two entrances and two exits, plus a circle of open space around it, the ancestral home covers an area of more than two or three lots, nearly 2,000 square meters.
Zongming Island is in the coastal area, and this land is worth at least 100 million!
If you add the added value of the ancestral home, then the money will be even more!
Ye Fan's brows suddenly frowned deeply.
"No wonder they encouraged my mother not to have any objections from the beginning. It turned out to be this kind of calculation!"
Ye Fan's guesses are guesses, but he won't make any hasty conclusions until the end.
"Xiaofan!"
Just when Ye Fan was trying to figure out what his uncle and aunt were thinking, the grandfather in the video suddenly called Ye Fan's name.
Lawyer Chen decisively pressed the pause button, bowed slightly to Ye Fan, and whispered: "Mr. Ye, Mr. Ye has something important to say to you here. I hope you can fulfill his last wish."
"Oh, okay." Ye Fan was a little surprised.
From the moment Lawyer Chen came in, he had a arrogant attitude that looked down on everyone. Unexpectedly, when he spoke to him, he turned out to be very respectful and even a little humble.
Lawyer Chen and Section Chief Li looked at each other, nodded slightly, and continued to play the video.
Grandpa sighed guiltily and said in a hoarse voice: "Xiaofan, Grandpa is sorry for you.
When you were desperate, grandpa was able to help you relieve your stress. However, grandpa failed to do it... Xiaofan, don't blame grandpa.
Now, I announce to everyone that the inheritor of the ancestral home is Zhonghua’s son, Ye Fan.
However, you must promise me and sign an agreement with multiple notarizations. No matter what happens in the future, our Ye family's ancestral home cannot be resold.
Otherwise, it will be dedicated to the country free of charge!"
As soon as he finished saying this, Lawyer Chen decisively pressed the pause button.
As he expected, a second later, Ye Weihong jumped up and screamed: "Impossible, impossible, what is Ye Fan afraid of getting the ancestral home?"
He, he is not the first heir to the inheritance, he is not qualified!
Lawyer Chen, Section Chief Li, you have to make the decision for us! Ye Fan is not the first heir, we are!"
Ye Weihong's eyes turned red anxiously. He stepped forward and held Lawyer Chen's hand tightly, and said excitedly: "Lawyer Chen, Ye Fan and Ye Zhonghua are no longer members of our Ye family. They were removed from the family tree by my father.
.
Moreover, you don’t know who Ye Fan is. He is a gambler and an alcoholic. If this house is in his hands, he will definitely ruin it sooner or later..."
"Oh? Is there such a thing?" Lawyer Chen was stunned and looked at Ye Fan randomly: "Mr. Ye, is what Ms. Ye said true?"
"Listen to her nonsense." Ye Fan waved his hand disdainfully, "Although I am not a successful person, I do not allow others to slander me at will.
Sister-in-law, if you can prove it, come up with evidence! If not, just shut up."
Ye Fan gave a cold shout and Ye Weihong suddenly ran out of words.
Yes, Ye Fan was not very good before, but now he is prospering in Binhai. He has opened fifty branches at once, and it is said that he has signed the national goddess Zi Ying'er as the spokesperson of the company.
I'm afraid his assets have already exceeded 100 million!
Ye Weihong suddenly lost her confidence and quickly looked at the other three brothers and sisters.
The uncle, second uncle, and third aunt are in the same camp as her, so naturally they will not let the ancestral home belong to only Ye Fan.
The uncle had a sullen face and hummed: "I don't know who Ye Fan is, and I don't want to comment. But my father only gave him the ancestral home in Nuoda, and I was the first to refuse!"
"Me too!" The second uncle was not to be outdone, "I object!"
"I object too, I object too! Why is it that only he has it and none of us are qualified?"
"Why?" Ye Fan smiled coldly, "Guys, your appearance was so ugly before, and I don't bother to argue with you.
Grandpa's things are his own, so I have nothing to say.
However, the ancestral home of the Ye family has been passed down from generation to generation of our Ye family.
If you really want it, I can consider it. However, with your attitude, I estimate that our Ye family's ancestral home will be sold within a few months.
I’m really sorry, but since grandpa believed in me and left his ancestral home to me, I will never agree!”
"Who... who said we want to sell our ancestral home?" The uncle's face changed, and he said with a pinched neck: "The ancestral home is... our common property, you can't take it for yourself!
Brother, don’t be in a daze, you can talk when the time comes!
Does your family, Xiaofan, still have any rules? How dare a junior have the nerve to compete with us for his father's inheritance?"
Ye Zhonghua opened his mouth, unable to keep up with his thoughts, "The ancestral home belongs to Ye Fan?"
"Is there still a lie?" My sister-in-law shouted sternly: "Brother, your family is so rich, do you even have the idea of the ancestral home?"
"I……"
Ye Zhonghua murmured a few times and was about to speak when he was suddenly interrupted by Ye Fan.
"Dad, this matter has nothing to do with you. The ancestral home was left to me by my grandfather, and you have no right to speak!"
Ye Fan now admires his grandfather a little.
He knows his children very well.
Grandpa should be able to predict how his uncle and aunt will deal with it after they obtain the ancestral home.
Although the will does not allow them to sell it exclusively, they can rent it out for a long time, or simply find someone to invest in it and turn it into a high-end tourist hotel full of cultural heritage, thereby earning huge profits.
This will inevitably damage the facilities and atmosphere of the ancestral home.
The ancestral home of the Ye family is the last pure land of the glorious Ye family. Grandpa will never allow any commercial atmosphere to tarnish it.
This is grandpa’s last strength and hope!
Although grandpa gave the ancestral home to Ye Fan, he actually transferred the responsibility to his father.
He knew that Ye Fan could not stay in his ancestral home all his life, but Ye Zhonghua could!
He hoped that Ye Zhonghua, like him, would guard the last remaining glory of the Ye family, a literary family, so that it could go a long way.
This deep love and trust brought tears to Ye Zhonghua's eyes.
Seeing that Ye Zhonghua understood what his grandfather meant, Ye Fan waved his hands to the uncle and others.
"Uncles and aunts, since my dad has nothing to say, you'd better keep your mouth shut, otherwise it will be regarded as voluntarily giving up all inheritance!"
"You!" The uncle and others were furious and quickly winked at Lawyer Chen: "Lawyer Chen, please be fair."
Lawyer Chen shrugged, "This is Mr. Ye's will. It's hard for me as an outsider to say anything.
However, judging from Mr. Ye's intention, it seems that he is willing to accept the third inheritance. As long as he signs it, the will will be fully effective.
Ladies and gentlemen, according to Mr. Ye's wishes, if Mr. Ye owns the Ye family's ancestral home, he will naturally become the current head of the Ye family.
He is the master, I hope everyone would be a little more polite to him."
