With this sudden sound, the people at the door were stunned. However, as Tang Yu and Tang Lin, who were very ambitious to compete for inheritance, they of course heard the voice's identity as soon as possible.

Tang Yu first said: Uncle, I'm sorry, I didn't help you guard the door, and disturbed your ancestor worship activities in the ancestral temple.

Tang Lin followed closely: Uncle, this is all my fault. I did not handle the conflict with Tang Yu's cousin correctly in your way, and it also disturbed your ancestor worship.

As soon as they finished speaking, several old men walked out of the ancestral hall, but they were not as expected. These old men did not have white hair, but were still black, but their hair was a little white, but at most they were gray in their temples. I think it would be due to reasonable dietary nutritional combinations and the result of self-cultivation in the ancestral hall.

Seeing these old people, Zhou Ming and Tang Lin remembered Tang Lin’s introduction along the way. They thought these people were the elders of the Ancestral Hall Clan Association.

The ancestral clan may say that it is a very special existence of the Tang family. Since the family stipulated the age of the heirs, people over the age cannot inherit the family property. This is to ensure that the family will be young forever, and to be vigilant about the occurrence of a monopoly on a certain industry, so that the entire family industry has the opportunity to inject fresh blood into it and not decay.

However, other elders who have not been able to inherit the family can only enter the ancestral hall clan association to serve as a supervisor and guiding the family. Simply put, when the clan leader makes wrong decisions or does something wrong, he can use his own power to correct things, and even abolish the clan leader; and when the clan leader suddenly dies and fails to designate his heirs, the clan association will come out to preside over the election of a new heir.

It is precisely these powers that it can be said that this ancestral hall clan association is the final guarantee of the Tang family.

We have heard what you guys are at the door just now. It seems that when it comes to inheritance, our Tang family will not have no successors.

The old man joked, and then looked at Tang Ran up and down and asked: You are Tang Ran, the daughter of Jing Rong who has been left in China for 20 years.

Faced with this problem, Tang Ran looked at him with some confusion and did not speak at the first time. At this time, Tang Lin was very anxious to explain to him: This is Uncle Tang Jingsheng, and he is the highest-ranking elder among all the people in our Tang family. He is also the leader of the ancestral hall clan association. Not only does all the matters involving ancestral hall sacrifices fall under his control, but even when the clan leader suddenly dies, he will also do the matter of finding and designating an heir.

After listening to this explanation, Tang Ran nodded suddenly and said to Tang Jingsheng: Hello Uncle Tang. Although I have never known about my biological father, I know that my name is Tang Ran. I have been Tang Ran since I can remember it.

Tang Lin also said after Tang Ran's self-introduction: Uncle Tang, Tang Ran's cousin knew that he had never been to San Francisco, so he came here on the first day of today to say hello to you.

Tang Jingsheng reached out to stop Tang Lin's next words: There is no need to ask any questions, our Tang family doesn't care about those false rituals.

After saying that, he said to Tang Ran: Tang Lin has called me, I already know about you, and after DNA identification, you can be completely sure that you are Jing Rong's daughter. I welcome you to come back and inherit the family business. As Jing Rong's only direct descendant, you are the first heir of the Tang family and have the most qualification. However, in our Tang family, there is never a ranking that can explain everything. If you want to truly obtain the right to inherit, you must tell us that you have this ability.

But how can I tell you that we have this ability? We can’t tell you now, Zhou Ming interrupted and asked.

Tang Jingsheng was stunned at first about Zhou Ming's question. He looked up and down carefully and said rudely: I'm sorry I don't know you. You didn't have the qualifications to talk to me, but since you are talking to Tang Ran, I might as well tell you that I won't say it, because if you can't even guess this, then I don't think you have to compete for the right of inheritance.

After saying that, Tang Jingsheng ignored the others and left the ancestral hall directly, leaving only Zhou Ming, Tang Ran, Tang Yu, Tang Lin and others.

Tang Yu looked at Zhou Ming and said embarrassingly, then asked Tang Ran: Are you sure you won’t marry me? You are the first and I am the second. As long as we can combine, no one can threaten this inheritance right, and that guy can only bring you endless shame.

I don't allow you to say this about Brother Ming's insult to Tang Yu. Tang Ran said loudly without doing it, let me tell you, Brother Ming is the most powerful person in the world. He is so many times better than a psychopath like you.

Tang Yu said very regretfully: I really feel sorry for you, because that guy is just an idiot, but it doesn’t matter. The family dinner meeting that will be held soon will be held. I think you can see the true face of that idiot. When we get married, we will still get the inheritance right. So please believe me, I will tolerate you to forgive your mistakes, and you will directly change your mind and marry me.

Tang Yu pointed at Tang Ran and said that he also left the ancestral hall. Looking at his left back, Tang Ran said inexplicably: Brother Ming, is this person sick? I don’t even know him at all, so he came over to tell me about marriage, and it was a tone that I would definitely agree to him.

Zhou Ming smiled and pulled Tang Ran's little hand and said: There is no way, some people are like this. If they pretend to be too much, they will forget that they are pretending to be b, and they will make a joke in the end.

Then Zhou Ming said to Tang Lin: Since all the elders of the ancestral hall have left, we have no need to be here, so let's leave first.

Tang Lin had no objection, and they then came to the Tang family's old house, which was the real castle of the Tang family.

The dinner was held in the lobby of the castle. When Zhou Ming and the others arrived here, there were already many people sitting here. Of course, the situation here was the same as on the boat. Everyone sat together according to their own small groups. There was almost no intersection among people from different groups. Zhou Ming and Tang Ran had just come here and did not know anyone, so they could only sit at Tang Lin's table.

But this arrangement made Tang Ran feel uncomfortable. Suddenly she patted her behind her back and Zhou Ming asked her curiously what was wrong.

Tang Ran replied embarrassedly: Everyone around him was looking at us strangely, and it felt like I was posting something that someone had mischievously posted behind me.

Zhou Ming smiled. Of course, Zhou Ming had noticed what Tang Ran said. It can be said that almost from the moment they sat down, the whole audience was pointing at him and saying something.

Of course, no one is so bored, and if you may be stuck behind your back, I will tear it off as soon as possible, so you don’t have to worry at all. As for the current situation, it’s just because we are the focus of the entire dinner, and it’s impossible not to be seen or discussed by others. Don’t forget that you are the first heir to the Tang family. Zhou Ming said.

But now does the entire Tang family know that Tang Lin said that he kept it secret for us? He betrayed us. Tang Ran said angrily.

Regarding Tang Ran's speculation, Tang Lin made an innocent statement that I didn't. Zhou Ming smiled and told him to be calm: I think this has nothing to do with Mr. Tang Lin, because the matter on the ship is too big, and these people can share any news for the inheritance rights of their respective bosses, so it is not surprising that everyone knows it now.

Just as Zhou Ming and Tang Ran and Tang Lin were talking, a surprise breath suddenly sounded around him.

This made Zhou Ming and Tang Lin feel a little strange. They turned around and saw an old man helping him down to Zhou Ming and the others: It seems that your place is quite lively.

Tang Lin was shocked by one sentence. He immediately stood up and said hello: Hello Aunt Tang, hello, cousin Tang Yao.

With Tang Lin's words, Zhou Ming and Tang Ran immediately knew the identity of the visitor. According to the news that Tang Lin told them in advance, she was Tang Huiyin, one of the elders of the ancestral hall clan association. She was Tang Ran's cousin, which was the first heir to Tang Ran in the last family meeting. Tang Wan'er next to her was the fourth heir to the Tang family. In addition to Tang Ran, there was another woman in the top ten.

It is precisely this identity that surprised others so much. Obviously, when everyone wants to inherit the Tang family, the sudden appearance of the first heir has made everyone very sensitive. Now that the fourth person is still actively visiting the first person, we must let everyone think about it.

Could it be that Tang Ran was brought to San Francisco by Tang Huiyin and Tang Wan'er in order to inherit more property for them? But if so, why did Tang Ran sit on the same table with Tang Lin or Tang Ran brought it up? Tang Huiyin did this to make Tang Lin doubt Tang Ran, or the three men have put aside their prejudices for the inheritance rights and want to fight together.

However, for Zhou Ming and Tang Ran, they didn't think so much. Zhou Ming just felt that since he learned their identities, he would let Tang Ran get up and say hello like Tang Lin first.

Tang Huiyin looked up and down at Tang Ran and nodded with satisfaction and said: It is worthy of being Jing Rong's daughter. She looks so similar to him. Leaving you in China for twenty years has really made you suffer. But don't blame your father. He came back alone to inherit his family property. I don't know how many people wanted to kill him, and there were many unscrupulous difficulties.

Tang Ran smiled and said: Thank you very much for Aunt Tang for telling me this, but in fact I have lived a good life in China. I don’t blame my biological father.

Tang Huiyin raised her eyebrows and said: That's good. I know you are here to inherit the family property this time. You also proposed it in the last family meeting, so in principle I still hope that you can inherit your father's status.

Tang Huiyin then said: But I believe you have seen it. The current situation may not be that simple, so I won’t be here too much, so I won’t have any unnecessary fantasies for others. I will chat with you about your father when I have time in the future.

After saying that, Tang Huiyin left, but Tang Wan'er did not leave immediately, but instead reached out to Tang Ran and said: I am very happy to see your cousin Tang Ran. I really didn't expect that you, the first heir, is beyond me. This is incredible. However, we are always in a very weak position in the issue of inheritance, so I hope we can have the opportunity to talk more in the future.

Leaving this sentence, Tang Wan'er also left with Tang Huiyin.
