After getting off the high-speed train, Zheng Shunyao said with some embarrassment: "Li Housheng, is it too boring to sit with us?"
Li Yiyang smiled: "No, I just didn't get a good rest last night, so I fell asleep in the car."
"That's fine. By the way, Lao Tao's second son just called me. He said that his people have already driven over to pick us up. They will arrive in about half an hour. We just need to go have a meal first."
So the three of them found a place to eat near the high-speed rail station and ordered a few dishes to eat.
Before they finished eating, the Tao family's people had already arrived, but they did not rush them, but waited for them to finish eating before picking them up in the car.
The city where the Tao family is located is close to the second tier, and the economy in all aspects is much better than that of Qingcheng City where Li Yiyang is located.
As early as they knew that the old man had passed away suddenly, the Tao family had started making preparations and arranged the scene properly, just waiting for the old man to return to his place.
When Li Yiyang and the others arrived, the road outside the Tao family villa was filled with all kinds of cars, all of which were people coming to express their condolences.
Except for some relatives, most of them are business partners and people who have some friendship with the Tao family.
Although Mr. Tao passed away suddenly, his death did not make those who had friendship with the Tao family suffer.
After all, the foundation of the Tao family is still there. Even if he dies, the Tao family is still not a second-rate family.
Who knows whether the Tao family will get better and better because of his death, so after they learned that Mr. Tao passed away, they all rushed over to express their condolences as soon as possible.
Many people even planned to wait for the old man's funeral before going back.
The Tao family also arranged for them to stay in a hotel.
This is also the reason why Mr. Tao has been dead for so many days and there are still so many people paying condolences.
Then their car stopped at the gate of the Tao family's villa. The memorial shed was temporarily built. From afar, Li Yiyang heard bursts of crying. Everyone was crying heartbroken, with runny noses and tears.
Some are really crying, and some are just pretending. After all, with so many people watching, not crying will give people a very filial feeling.
Especially the people of the Tao family were busy with various matters, and no one had time to greet Li Yiyang and the others.
After the three got off the bus, Li Yiyang and Zheng Shunyao both stood in front of Mr. Tao's memorial tablet, bowed, and then burned some paper money to express their feelings.
Afterwards, in accordance with local custom, a gift of one thousand and one yuan was given.
Zheng Shunyao had a good relationship with Tao Yuan, and his white red envelope was very generous, at least six or seven thousand.
But what's the use of giving more money, the person is already dead.
After everything that needed to be done was done, Li Yiyang found a place to sit where there were few people, so as not to cause trouble.
Mr. Zheng kept lying in front of the coffin, telling his story about their past, which made everyone moved.
On the way, Tao Shichuan found Li Yiyang: "Mr. Li, I'm really sorry. My father passed away and I have a lot of things to do. Don't be surprised if I don't entertain you well."
As he spoke, he handed over a cigarette.
Li Yiyang stretched out his hand to stop him: "I don't smoke. Mr. Tao, just go about your business. I don't need to greet you."
Tao Shichuan was indeed quite busy. After a few words of greeting, he left.
It was evening in a flash. After dinner, the guests were all arranged to go to the hotel to rest and wait for the burial tomorrow.
Those who stayed were all members of the Tao family, and some were Tao Yuan's good friends who were still alive, such as Zheng Shunyao.
It's just that they are too old to stay vigil, so they are all arranged to rest in a room in the villa.
Originally, Li Yiyang, like Mr. Zheng, was arranged to rest in the room, but before he entered the villa, he heard the sound of quarreling, which was quite loud.
Li Yiyang looked in the direction of the quarrel and found that it was in the direction of the funeral shed.
It was the Tao family who were quarreling, including Tao Shichuan. The others were about the same age as him and should be Tao Shichuan's brothers and sisters.
Just when Li Yiyang looked at them, they also looked at him.
Seeing this, Li Yiyang had basically guessed that the reason for their quarrel was related to him.
The only thing that concerns me is the massive transfer of preferred equity.
But Li Yiyang didn't care very much. If they didn't agree, he would have waited until they went bankrupt before taking over the company.
But in this case, he will not help them solve the trouble that is about to happen.
When the time comes, it will be them who suffer the loss, and it has nothing to do with them.
Therefore, he didn't care much about whether he could successfully take over the equity of this company.
Because this company will come into his hands sooner or later, it's just a matter of sooner or later.
So he entered the villa directly, but did not go back to the room. Instead, he sat on the sofa in the living room. He believed that it would not be long before Tao Shichuan came to find him.
Sure enough, within about ten minutes, Tao Shichuan came over with an embarrassed look on his face, looking at Li Yiyang sitting on the sofa, as if he didn't know how to speak.
Although Li Yiyang knew what he was talking about, he still looked like he didn't know anything on the surface: "Mr. Tao, if you have anything to say, just say it directly."
However, Tao Shichuan still looked embarrassed, and it took him a long time to say something: "Well...it's okay. Mr. Li, please go upstairs and rest first. I'll talk to you when I'm sure."
Li Yiyang nodded: "Okay, I'll go back to the room to rest first."
He didn't ask any more questions. It was estimated that Tao Shichuan still planned to negotiate with his family.
After returning to the room, Li Yiyang simply washed up, put on his pajamas and lay on the bed.
However, the suona kept playing outside, and he was so noisy that he couldn't sleep, so he leaned on the bed and played with his mobile phone.
Until ten o'clock in the evening, when Li Yiyang was about to force himself to rest, there was a knock on the door.
Li Yiyang put on his clothes, stood up and opened the door. He thought it was Tao Shichuan who was looking for him, but he didn't know it was some strangers who were much older than him.
These people Li Yiyang had met, they were the ones who had a dispute with Tao Shichuan before.
Their faces were full of displeasure.
No, as soon as Li Yiyang's door opened, they barged in without saying a word, as if they were afraid that Li Yiyang wouldn't let them in.
Although some people accidentally stepped on Li Yiyang's foot because they moved too much, there was no apology on the face of the person who stepped on them, and they had no intention of apologizing.
Looking at the menacing people, Li Yiyang guessed the reason. He didn't care about anything, turned around and let them in without closing the door.
After several people entered the room, Li Yiyang asked in a deep voice: "What do you want?"
One of the middle-aged women wearing white mourning clothes said angrily to Li Yiyang: "The injuries on my son's face were caused by you, right?"
"what do you mean?
I have never hit anyone."
Li Yiyang frowned and said.
Seeing that he refused to admit it, the woman pointed at Li Yiyang's nose and cursed: "I don't know what kind of evil possessed my son to make him listen to your words and attack his own nephew, but the look on my son's face now
The injury has not healed yet, and you are the instigator, so you have to take responsibility."
Now Li Yiyang understood, it seemed that the person who bullied Jiahui that day was this woman's son.
Sure enough, like a mother, there is a son.
He held back his displeasure and explained: "What happened that night was originally your son's fault for bullying a few helpless girls.
As his second uncle, isn't it natural for Mr. Tao to teach his nephew a lesson?"
"Please keep your mouth clean. When did my son bully a female classmate?
They just wanted to buy them a drink, and this group of students seemed to want to kill them.
To put it another way, if they were really serious students, why would they go to the bar?
I was indiscreet, but I still had the nerve to blame others for my mistakes."
The woman became more and more enthusiastic as she spoke, and did not notice that Li Yiyang's face had changed color.
