Chapter 30 Making a Will

He drove the brand new Citroen home and parked it at the entrance.

As soon as he got out of the car, his mother saw him.

Zhao Xiaolan hurriedly walked out from behind the counter of the small shop and shouted to Chen Feng, “Did you just buy this car?”

“Yes. I just bought it, there was a discount.”

Chen Feng couldn’t tell the truth, so he could only say that.

“Do you still have money? You actually bought a car, how much did it cost?”

“I bought it with a loan. The down payment was only a few tens of thousands, and the total price was about one hundred and seventy or eighty thousand,” Chen Feng said, understating the price.

Zhao Xiaolan relaxed when she heard the price.

Buying a car worth over a hundred thousand with a loan is now very common in the countryside.

“Well, it looks okay. But you have to be careful when you drive yourself in the future,” Zhao Xiaolan reminded him.

Chen Feng shook his head, “This car is for Dad and my brother to drive. I have another car in Xiuzhou, which is a little better than this one, and I’m used to driving it.”

“Shen Lin gave you that one?” Zhao Xiaolan asked in surprise.

Shen Lin had always had a car, first a Mini, and later she switched to a Volkswagen.

“No. I bought it second-hand. Anyway, it’s better than this one.”

“Then why did you buy another one? Do you have too much money?” Zhao Xiaolan complained, “Hurry up and return it.”

“How can I return it? Even if I return it, it will be returned as a second-hand car, and I’ll lose a lot of money. Alright, I only bought this car because of the big discount. Doesn’t the family need a car? We can all use it together. I’ll use it when I’m here, and when I’m not, Dad and my brother can use it.”

“Really. You didn’t even discuss such a big matter. Since the family is using it together, you should have your dad and your brother contribute some money.”

“We’re all family, why bother with these things? Just think of it as me buying a car to show my filial piety to Dad.”

“Although your dad has had his driver’s license for a few years, he has never dared to drive a private car. At most, he drives a small truck.”

“If he can drive a small truck, then this car will be no problem. Alright, let’s go inside. Someone is coming to buy something.”

Chen Feng finally managed to get rid of his mother and went to take a shower with a headache.

He had been busy all afternoon, especially when he went to see the house, he had walked a lot and was sweating.

After taking a shower, it was dinner time. The family sat together for dinner again.

The Citroen undoubtedly became the center of the topic, and Chen Feng was once again questioned by everyone.

He had no choice but to make up a friend, saying that a friend happened to be selling cars in the county town and had an internal discount, so he couldn’t help but buy it.

In this way, he finally made his family reluctantly accept it.

In fact, his father, Chen Dayong, and his older brother, Chen Rui, were both very happy.

They had long wanted to buy a small car, but their family’s financial situation was not very good before. In addition, Chen Rui had a small truck, which could be used in a pinch, so it had been delayed.

Now that they finally had this small car, and the family would use it together in the future, they were of course happy.

Not to mention anything else, if someone in the family had a headache or a fever, or went to visit relatives, it would be much more convenient.

The family happily finished dinner, and then Chen Rui unceremoniously asked for the car keys to test drive it.

The next afternoon, Chen Feng first went to the real estate agency to get the property certificate, and then he asked Xiao Yang about the best law firm in the area.

Xiao Yang was a local in the county town. Although he was young, he knew a lot of people and immediately recommended a law firm to him.

Chen Feng searched online in his car and found that this law firm was indeed quite famous and seemed to have a good reputation.

Chen Feng directly called the law firm, explained his situation, and after communicating with them, he confirmed it.

It was only a few minutes’ drive to the law firm. He gave his name and immediately met the firm’s leading lawyer, a lawyer with the same surname, Chen Yaobo, who was one of the partners of the law firm.

After some communication, he quickly determined the content of his will.

There were mainly five points. First, his car would be given to his father and older brother; second, the top-floor house in the Dingsheng Building would be given to his older brother as a school district house for his two nieces; third, his shares in the car detailing shop would be given to his older brother, Chen Rui, free of charge; fourth, he had already bought pension and medical insurance for his parents, and for specific details, they could contact Chen Feng’s old classmate, Wang Fang; fifth, all his other property would be inherited by his parents.

The rest of the content was words of comfort to his parents, and asking his older brother to fulfill his filial duties on his behalf and take good care of his parents.

He had been thinking about the content of this will for a long time these days.

He dictated it, and then lawyer Chen Yaobo helped him polish it and type it out on the computer. After a slight modification, he gave it to Chen Feng to review.

After confirming that there were no errors, he printed it out, signed it, and put his fingerprint on it. Then, at Chen Feng’s request (with an extra fee), Chen Yaobo also signed his name and stamped it with the law firm’s official seal.

Then, Chen Yaobo took Chen Feng to the notary office to have the will notarized.

In this way, the will was considered to be made, and it was absolutely guaranteed.

As soon as Chen Feng died, and after Chen Yaobo confirmed it, he would take the initiative to contact Chen Feng’s parents and then read the will, which was legally effective.

After settling the matter of the will, Chen Feng also felt that a weight had been lifted from his mind.

Taking advantage of the little time left in the afternoon, Chen Feng went to the shopping mall to buy a set of nourishing health products and an electric foot bath, and then drove to the old city.

The layout of the old city in the county town had not changed much in more than ten years.

He came to a residential complex, parked his car, and walked into the complex with his gifts.

The gatekeeper was an old man, dozing off. Chen Feng easily got in.

He came to a familiar unit building, Building C, 303, which was easy to remember, and pressed the doorbell.

Not long after, he heard footsteps inside.

“Who is it?” an old male voice came from inside.

“I’m Teacher Zheng’s student, here to visit her.”

“Ah, okay, please wait a moment.”

The door opened, and an old man in his seventies stood at the door.

“Hello, I’m Chen Feng, Teacher Zheng’s student. She taught me for two years in high school. I heard that her health has not been very good these past two years, so I came to visit her.”

“Thank you, you are very thoughtful. Please come in.”

Yesterday, Chen Feng had heard from Wang Fang that his high school homeroom teacher, Teacher Zheng, had been bedridden for two or three years, so he had specially come to see her.

After the arts and science classes were divided in the second year of high school, Teacher Zheng had always been his homeroom teacher and Chinese teacher. At that time, she took great care of the students in the class, including him, and the students had always had a very good impression of her.

The time Chen Feng remembered most clearly was when he was extorted for a month’s living expenses by some bad youths outside the school. He didn’t dare to tell his family and could only borrow money from his classmates to get by. After Teacher Zheng heard about it, she took the initiative to find him and take him to report the case. As a result, they really caught that group of bad youths.

In addition, at his request, Teacher Zheng did not inform his family about this matter and even lent him three hundred yuan.

There are really not many teachers who are so responsible for their students and have such a sense of justice. Therefore, Chen Feng had always respected her and was grateful to her.
