the next day.

The second day after Zhang Wei’s mother died.

According to the custom in Zhang Wei's hometown, the deceased needs to stay in the mourning hall for seven days. After the first seven days, the coffin can be covered and the coffin can be buried according to the time set by the second house.

On this day, Zhang Wei, who fell asleep at four o'clock in the morning, felt that he was woken up by the noise downstairs not long after he closed his eyes.

Zhang Wei didn't think much about it, he just thought it was relatives and friends who came to express their condolences early in the morning.

He opened his eyes drowsily, and what he saw was a pair of big eyes, which were looking at him, but their eyes were unfocused, and he obviously didn't know what he was thinking about.

"Dear, why are you awake? Why don't you sleep more?" Zhang Wei asked casually subconsciously, and then he suddenly realized something: "Dear, you didn't sleep all night, right?"

"Yeah." Shirley came back to her senses and hummed softly. "I can't sleep, I have a headache."

As she spoke, Shirley's brows immediately knitted together, and she was obviously in severe pain.

Zhang Wei stretched out his arms from the quilt and hugged Shirley tightly into his arms. He was so distressed that he didn't know what to say.

After a long time, he said: "Do you need me to take you to the hospital?"

In fact, Zhang Wei also knew in his heart that this question was in vain. With the current situation at home, Shirley was definitely not willing to cause him any more trouble.

What's more, Shirley has been suffering from headaches for a long time. The two of them went to the hospital for check-ups many times in Shanghai. The doctor not only said it was neurological migraine, but also advised Shirley to get more rest.

As expected, Shirley shook her head and said: "It's an old problem. I guess it's because I haven't had a good rest in the past two days. How about you help me get a painkiller."

Soon, Zhang Wei found painkillers from Shirley's luggage and poured a glass of hot water.

After Shirley finished drinking the medicine, Zhang Wei covered Shirley with a quilt, then straddled the bedside and gently rubbed Shirley's forehead.

"There's nothing to do in the morning, so just rest a little longer."

But as soon as Zhang Wei finished speaking, the noise outside the bedroom seemed to be against him, and suddenly turned into a loud noise.

Because of the loud noise, Zhang Wei couldn't hear clearly what was being shouted outside, but judging by the sound, his two uncles should be there too.

How can we let Shirley rest?

"I'm going to see what's going on outside." Zhang Wei stopped rubbing Shirley's forehead and took out two tissues from the bedside table.

"I'll stay with you." Shirley struggled to sit up.

Zhang Wei reached out and held Shirley down: "No, you can have a good rest in the morning."

"I'll plug your ears so it won't be so noisy."

With that said, Zhang Wei crumpled two tissues into a ball and stuffed them into Shirley's ears.

Shirley is a light sleeper. When Shirley forgot to bring earplugs when she went out, Zhang Wei did the same thing.

Then he helped Shirley tuck in the quilt and then left the bedroom.

As soon as he got down the stairs, Zhang Wei saw a lot of people coming into the living room on the first floor.

These people were surrounding his father, shouting non-stop.

Seeing this, Zhang Wei hurriedly walked down the stairs, separated from everyone and came to his father's side.

"Dad, what's going on? What are they doing?"

Zhang Wei's father ignored his question and just said to the crowd angrily: "It's important for people to die! It's important for people to die!... Do you have to make trouble at this time? It's such a big deal.

Can't we wait until the person is laid to rest before we talk?"

"If a person is buried, wouldn't it mean he died without evidence? What a nonsense..."

I don't know who whispered something in a low voice, and someone immediately echoed it.

"That's right, I must give an explanation today."

"That's right, that's right..."

"You can't die even if you die..."

"Our money didn't come from the strong wind. They defrauded us of our money. Don't you think you can just die..."

"Repaying debts is a matter of course."

"Pay back the money, pay back the money..."

Someone raised their head, and suddenly the living room of Zhang Wei's house became noisy like a vegetable market.

"You, you, you..."

Zhang Wei's father angrily pointed at everyone in a circle, but was so angry that he couldn't say a word.

When Zhang Wei saw this, he immediately became extremely angry. He raised the stool next to him and shouted loudly: "Shut up! Shut up the hell."

The living room suddenly became quiet.

However, it was only quiet for two seconds.

"Dawei, it's not that my aunt is unreasonable. You may not know that I was deceived by your mother into buying a lot of Xiangtian shares before she was alive. Now Xiangtian company is under investigation and the chairman has run away, but the money invested is gone.

It's the hard-earned money that my aunt has worked hard to save all her life, we can't just let it go, your family must give an explanation today."

The speaker was a woman in her fifties or sixties, whom Zhang Wei knew and was a friend of her mother.

"Aunt Liu!" Zhang Wei pointed at the woman and yelled: "Did my mother force you to buy the shares in Xiangtian?"

Aunt Liu said: "It's because I believed in your mother that I invested more than 100,000 yuan...ah!"

Before she could finish her words, she saw the stool held by Zhang Wei suddenly hit her in her direction. She was immediately frightened and hurriedly dodged.

"Crack!"

The stool fell to the ground with a loud noise.

But the anger in Zhang Wei's heart did not subside even a little bit, but instead made him feel even more uncomfortable.

This Aunt Liu was her mother's best friend during her lifetime. When Zhang Wei came back during the holidays, whenever this Aunt Liu came to his house, his mother would always pull Zhang Wei in front of her and say enthusiastically: "Son, this is

Your Aunt Liu is mom’s best friend..."

At this moment, it was his mother's "best" friend who kept asking for an explanation from their family.

However this is just the beginning.

Seeing that Zhang Wei had nothing in his hand, the people surrounding him and his son immediately pointed at him and his son angrily and started shouting again.

"How dare you hit someone! If you have the ability to pay back the money for your mother, how can you be so cruel..."

"You try again! I'm afraid of you! If you can, you can compensate our money for your mother."

"You live in a big house with millions of dollars in Shanghai, and you are happy and happy. Now you are pretending to be a filial son. If you want to be a filial son, you must first pay off the debt you owe for your mother..."

"That's right, you are also worthy of being a filial son. Tell me how many years have passed since your mother married you a daughter-in-law, but you still haven't got a grandchild. There are three types of unfilial piety, and the most important one is not having children. An unfilial son like you is also

Is it worthy of wearing sackcloth and mourning?"

"That's right, he is nothing. He was caught by the police just because he did some shameful things outside. His mother was so angry that he died..."

…

The words everyone was shouting changed their tone as they spoke, and Zhang Wei heard every word that was heart-wrenching.

Zhang Wei felt that his anger was soaring towards Tian Ling Gai, and immediately the world in front of him was spinning.

"Enough!"

At this moment, a pair of big hands supported him.

Turning around, I saw it was my father.

Although Zhang Wei's father was shaking with anger at this moment, the hand holding his son was steady.

"My son, it's not your turn to make irresponsible remarks!"

After saying that, Zhang Wei's father ignored the others and looked at the two younger brothers behind the crowd with complicated eyes.

"Second child, third child, are you here to cause trouble too?"

"Brother, I, I'm here to help."

Zhang Wei's third uncle waved his hands quickly, and at the same time, his body immediately moved to the side, putting some distance between him and Zhang Wei's second uncle, as if he was drawing a clear line with Zhang Wei's second uncle.

Zhang Wei's father immediately focused his attention on his second uncle.

"Second brother! Where are you!"

Zhang Wei's second uncle smiled: "Brother, well, my sister-in-law also owes my family 30,000 yuan for several years..."

"Crack!"

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Wei's father grabbed a glass and smashed it.

Zhang Wei's second uncle was so frightened that he quickly shrank his neck and hid.

The glass didn't hit anyone, but hit the window behind his second uncle. Immediately, the glass on the window shattered to the ground.

Zhang Wei's second uncle glanced at the broken glass on the ground, turned back and said with a smile: "Brother, you are not young anymore, don't always lose your temper like a child."

Then he continued: "As the old saying goes, brothers settle accounts clearly. What's the matter? My sister-in-law owes my family the money and I still don't want anyone to pick up the money? Besides, I didn't say that your family must pay back the money today. I'm just worried about so many people.
