Chapter 407 Bargaining!
After ten minutes.
Inside and outside the Du family manor in the south of the Yangtze River, no less than a hundred dead men of the Du family have been hidden.
Their purpose is only one, hunting!
Whenever there is a trace of Luo Feng, they will arrest him at any cost, and avenge their old master Du Zhennan.
However, inside and outside the brightly lit Du's Manor, apart from the dead men hiding in the dark, there were also local guests present. Without exception, all of them were dressed in filial piety and waited on both sides.
Looking around, the Du's manor under the lights was completely covered by the white funeral clothes.
"Third Young Master, it's already midnight, it's time for the guests to disperse and come back tomorrow."
At this time, Ling Bo, the housekeeper of the Du family who had just rushed over from other places, walked up to Du Mingtao in filial piety and made a proposal.
"Uncle Ling, it is my Du family's misfortune that my father and brother were killed by evil people. Is there any problem in making those affiliated families who surrendered to my Du family kneel down for three days and three nights?" Du Mingtao asked with his eyes tightened.
"Third young master, the dead cannot be brought back to life, please mourn."
Ling Bo bowed his body, his eyes were filled with deep complexity.
He was the same age as the deceased head of the Du family, Du Zhennan, and had lived in the Du family for more than fifty years. The third young master in front of him was also his favorite.
However, the third young master's current decision makes people disagree.
"Bo Ling, you seem to have something else to say, so go ahead." Du Mingtao's eyes flickered with gentleness.
"Third Young Master, to tell you the truth, this incident happened in our inherited family, and it really hurt everyone's face, but it's not appropriate to make those subordinate family heads kneel for three days and three nights." Just as Lingbo was about to take a step closer to speak, unexpectedly, Du Yi and Du San next to him blocked him with one step.
"Bo Ling, you can change the address of the third young master." Du Yi stared domineeringly.
"Change the title?" Uncle Ling was obviously puzzled, and he was relieved after thinking about it for a while, "Speaking of which, changing the title is a matter of course, but the second young master has not returned, and the final winner of the title of Patriarch has not yet been known. Wouldn't it be too childish to change the title from time to time?" Although Ling Bo is a servant, he is a senior senior generation after all, so how could he be intimidated by Du Yi's aura?
"Uncle Ling, the second young master is stubborn by nature and loves martial arts all his life, so he is incompetent for the position of head of the family, you shouldn't understand?" Du San is a female class, but he is very powerful, so he can naturally speak up.
Lingbo fell silent.
He could tell that if he said no now, he might be torn to pieces by Du Yi and Du San on the spot.
"Uncle Ling, you can speak up if you have something to say." Du Mingtao smiled slowly again at this time.
"Third young master, this old man was born and raised in Du's family, and his whole heart is only for Du's family. Therefore, even if he risked his death, master has to say one more thing." Lingbo seemed to have made up his mind.
"Speak." Du Mingtao had no other purpose, he just wanted to hear Ling Bo's appreciation and affirmation of him personally.
"The old Patriarch died, the Eldest Young Master died unfortunately, and the Second Young Master was obsessed with martial arts. Therefore, the Patriarch's position must belong to you." Lingbo's words were not flattering, it was a fact after all.
"I love hearing Bo Ling's words." Du Mingtao finally smiled.
"I'm not finished yet."
Ling Bo said earnestly: "And today, with so many major events happening in the family, it is the time when the dragons have no leader. It stands to reason that the third young master should indeed do his part to succeed the head of the family. But at least we have to wait for the second young master to come back before making a decision." .”
"You don't have to wait for the second brother, I'm considering calling him about this matter." Du Mingtao raised his eyebrows.
"Alright."
Lingbo nodded, turned his head and pointed at all the affiliated families inside and outside the courtyard, and said again: "Third young master, since you must be the head of the family, I still have to suggest that you should convince people with virtue at this time."
"Bo Ling said, let the subordinate families go back to rest and come back tomorrow?" Du Mingtao frowned upon hearing this.
"exactly."
"After all, the third young master will take over the position of Patriarch in a few days, so it's not a bad idea to win people's hearts earlier." Lingbo suggested.
Du Mingtao pondered for a while after hearing this, and finally nodded indifferently, "That's fine, just do as Ling Bo said."
"The third young master is sympathetic to the hearts of the people, and he will surely win the hearts of the people, and I will admire you." Ling Bo bowed again. In a sense, he had already acknowledged Du Mingtao's position as the head of the family.
Certainly, apart from Du Mingtao, among the younger generation of the Du family, there is no one else who can take on such a heavy responsibility.
"Uncle Ling, I'll leave it to you to handle the funeral of my father and brother. I'll go talk to my second brother first." Du Mingtao got up and was about to leave.
"Third young master, I have a merciless request." Ling Bo said suddenly.
"Say." Du Mingtao paused.
"After the funeral is over and the third young master is crowned the head of the family, I want to retire and return home." Uncle Ling spread his hands in embarrassment.
"It's easy to say, I agree. As long as you cooperate with me before then, I will protect you for the rest of your life." After Du Mingtao left, he called his second brother Du Minghai.
Du Minghai had just got off the plane and arrived in Jiangbei.
"Third brother, I just arrived and am about to go to Luo Feng's father-in-law's house. What's going on with you?" Du Minghai still didn't know the news of his father Du Zhennan's death.
"Second brother, you must remain calm when I say something next." Du Mingtao hinted at Du Minghai, and said word by word: "Second brother, promise me."
"Third brother, when did you stop talking like this? If you have something to say, the elder brother was killed. What else can make me lose my mind?" Du Minghai looked at Jiangbei in the night with a straight face.
"Just after you boarded the plane in Jiangbei, father, he was also killed by Luo Feng's soul." Du Mingtao hesitated, and finally finished what he had to say in one breath.
After Du Minghai heard this, he froze for the first time, and then said calmly, "Third brother, you can't take this kind of joke!"
"Second brother, I don't dare to make such a joke, what I said is the truth." Du Mingtao responded immediately.
Du Minghai choked up.
After a brief silence, he took a deep breath, with a deep look in his eyes, he was not as irritable as before, but uncharacteristically, he asked quietly: "Third brother, tell me carefully, how exactly did Luo Feng attack you?" father?"
"Not long after you left home, Father personally went outside the door to meet the body of the eldest brother. Who would have thought that he was attacked and killed by Luo Feng the very first moment he left the house." Du Mingtao was very detailed, one by one. Ten told it again.
"Third brother, I need you to think carefully before answering me. Is it really Luo Feng's father who attacked me? Don't try to evade me. I need the facts. Do you understand the facts?"
Du Minghai seemed to have lost the previous attitude of being obsessed with martial arts and not caring about worldly affairs. His eyes were fixed on the video image in another mobile phone, and the veins on his forehead were bulging.
"Second brother, you..."
Suddenly, Du Mingtao felt that his second brother, Du Minghai, who was devoted to martial arts, had changed!
