Rebirth capital madman - Chapter 1167
Objectively speaking, for an eighty-year-old man suffering from heart disease who has come to the end of his life journey, Gao Xian must have been mentally prepared, but he was a little surprised when he received the news of his critical illness, because even in the During the busiest period of the first Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation meeting, I took the time to visit it. It was in good condition at that time, so why did it suddenly turn around?
The couple returned to Xiangjiang non-stop, transferred to a helicopter, and landed directly from Kai Tak Airport in Kowloon to the hospital directly under the Gao Institute of Medical Research in Causeway Bay, Hong Kong Island. Every second counts.
Eldest brother Yi Huichong and second brother Yi Huiqiang are already waiting on the tarmac, “You guys came back so fast, we can see each other for the last time.”
Seeing that the younger sister Yi Huirong’s eyes were a little red and swollen, Yi Huiqiang comforted him: “Dad said it himself, seventy-three, eighty-four, the King of Hades won’t take me, let’s take it easy.”
Gao Xian sighed softly, held his wife’s hand, and came out of the ward, seeing Jiacheng, Jiaming, and Jiayuan, the younger generations taking turns to guard the room.
“Sir Yi sometimes wakes up and sometimes falls into a coma. The situation is not optimistic.” The doctor in charge reported.
“Thank you.” Gao Xian nodded, and walked gently into the luxurious ward full of instruments with Yi Huirong. Miraculously, Yi Mingzhe noticed something and slowly opened his cloudy eyes.
Yi Huirong leaned close to her father’s ear and said softly, “Dad, I’m back.”
“Okay…okay…” Yi Mingzhe moved his skinny hand, and Gao Xian quickly held it, “Dad, I’m back too.”
Yi Mingzhe’s eyes seemed to brighten a little, “Okay, okay, you are fine.”
Feeling that the old father-in-law’s bony hand increased a little, Gao Xian moved closer knowingly.
“The two families share weal and woe, keep things simple, and listen to your opinion.” Yi Mingzhe’s voice seemed to be a little clearer.
After Gao Xian glanced at the two uncles, he nodded in agreement.
Jiayuan, who followed her grandma into the ward, said happily, “Grandpa, you look much better.”
Yi Mingzhe also smiled, “I am very satisfied to have you by my side.”
After a while, the old man fell into a coma again.
In the middle of the night, the monitoring equipment issued an alarm. After a careful examination, the doctor concluded that Yi Mingzhe had passed away.
The various reporters who had been squatting around the hospital for a long time, immediately noticed something from this trouble.
At this time, Gao Xian and the important members of the Yi family were discussing funeral affairs in the conference room of the hospital.
Gao Xian said it very directly and honestly. I am just a son-in-law. Logically speaking, it is not my turn to express my opinion on how to arrange the funeral of the old father-in-law. What’s more, there are two uncles, and the Yi family is so huge. , but the old man specifically explained before he died that he wanted to listen to my opinion, so I will also talk about my own thoughts.
Many important members of the Yi family first focused their attention on the three brothers and sisters Yi Huichong, Yi Huiqiang, and Yi Huirong. Seeing that they nodded, they all fell silent.
In fact, from the point of view of the disposal of the huge assets of the Yi family, arrangements have been made for a long time. In recent years, Yi Mingzhe has only held the vain positions of group consultant and honorary chairman of the board of directors, and there is nothing to cause trouble.
The more important point is that the branch of the patriarch, Yi Mingzhe, is much more prosperous than the other branches because of his son-in-law Gao Xian, and is good at internal unity, for example, the clan of Yi’s Group and Happy Group, and Gao Yi’s clan. During the period, there is a considerable degree of personnel and financial connections, and the interests are well taken care of, and the right to speak is naturally strong enough to crush all kinds of rules, and no one dares to make mistakes.
Seeing that everyone had no objections, Gao Xian expressed his thoughts. The old man explained that the funeral should be kept simple, so the media will naturally decline it. The specific funeral arrangements can be handled by the family, so I won’t say much. Just talk about two aspects.
First, although the funeral is kept simple, Mr. Yi is a Chinese leader who has made a big splash in Xiangjiang. His former friends came to express his condolences, as well as my friends from Rongrong and me. They should also come. The way here is very profound. Don’t be careless. Everyone must be serious.
Everyone nodded spontaneously and understood that the Yi family belonged to a prominent family in Xiangjiang, plus the son-in-law Sir Gao’s hands and eyes, and the funeral of the head of the Yi family was destined to be an event that reflected social status, political connections, business power, etc. For special events, no one can lose the chain.
“This aspect is very complicated, so let’s sort out the list as soon as possible.” Gao Xian changed the subject, “Let me talk about the second aspect. I plan to keep my father-in-law, Sir Yi, in mourning for a year. What do you think?”
As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn’t help but looked at each other, and even Yi Huirong showed surprise on his face. Obviously, the couple had not communicated about this before.
And everyone can also hear Gao Xian’s words, there are subtexts, otherwise, they would not raise it so solemnly as the second aspect.
Whether Sir Gao showed his filial piety in public, had a good relationship with his father-in-law, and decided to keep his filial piety under grief is not important, but whether a son-in-law has achieved this level, will the members of the Yi family follow? ?
Yi Huichong and Yi Huiqiang did not hesitate to follow what their brother-in-law said, and of course they had to keep a filial piety for their father for one year.
Again, no one would dare to make a mistake in front of Sir Gao and Senator Yi Huirong’s strength.
The other members of the Yi family also expressed their stance that they would observe a filial piety for the patriarch for one year.
Seeing that the family members agreed, Gao Xian pulled back the conversation. When I said filial piety, I meant avoiding unnecessary social activities, especially staying away from the media. I think it should not cause serious harm to everyone. inconvenient.
Everyone quietly breathed a sigh of relief. Indeed, it is not difficult to observe this level of filial piety.
Arriving here, as the son-in-law of the Yi family, Gao Xian retreated back in a sensible manner.
…
Although the posthumous affairs are kept simple, it is impossible to omit the necessary link of mourning and honoring after death. This is part of the “ritual system” of human civilization, and it may be more particular in Xiangjiang.
What is covered on the coffin, who are the supporters, the obituary, the flag is lowered at half-mast… Let’s talk about it one by one in detail, because the content is likely to be sensitive, so I won’t go into details.
Yi Mingzhe’s funeral became the focus, which reflected the pivotal status of the Yi family, and also reflected the son-in-law Sir Gao’s hands and eyes. Just the governor of Hong Kong also believes in helping spirits, and then there must be a supporter with a corresponding status On the other side, it can be seen.
The funeral of an important person is so full of exquisiteness!
When the news spread that the Yi family was going to mourn for the late patriarch for one year, the outside world couldn’t talk about reactions such as surprise. The level of mourning was so high that it was normal for the living to express it again.
But, what about Sir Gao, who is the supervisor of Hong Kong International Financial Center?
