Chapter 002 Will
After Masao Ishihara arrived home, the Japanese mourning hall had been built by relevant professionals. When he returned from Tokyo, he wore a black suit and a black tie, so there was no need to go back to his bedroom and change his clothes.
Saki Ishihara and Ryoko Ishihara who had been waiting in the mourning hall for a long time had already cried to tears. Although Ryoko Ishihara and his father had not officially become naturalized and married, they were a husband and wife.
Even if Saki Ishihara and his father are not biological fathers and daughters, they still have a real relationship between adoptive fathers and adopted daughters. After all, they have been registered with the Ishihara family.
Masao Ishihara and the mother and daughter briefly communicated, and then joined in. Even if he didn't cry, he felt really uncomfortable.
Even if he has the entire memory of his previous life, it cannot deny the father-son relationship between him and the deceased. The other party still raised him for twenty years with delicious food and drink.
RB funerals are generally divided into night and farewell ceremony. All nights usually start at 7 pm and end until around 9 pm. Relatives, friends, colleagues and other relevant personnel are usually attended by queuing up to burn incense.
The farewell ceremony is the morning of the next day, that is, before the deceased is cremated, and it is usually only attended by relatives and excellent friends.
In fact, RB's funeral is similar to that in China. The reason for this is because of the far-reaching influence of ancient Chinese culture.
The similarity between the two is that the deceased's relatives, friends, colleagues, neighbors, etc. will basically come and give some money to express it.
As for the amount, it is also determined based on the closeness and distantness of the relationship. A special person writes down his name and records the corresponding amount in the book, so that the owner can give a gift in the future.
In the center of the altar, there are black and white photos of the deceased. As relatives of the deceased, especially the men and grandchildren, they need to watch all night. After burying the deceased, they will still have a meal.
The difference between the two is that Taoist priests presided over the salvation in China, while RB is often chanted by monks. Chinese funerals require that the deceased be parked for three days and then funerals, while RB funerals do not take so many days.
People who attend Japanese funerals will consciously wear black clothes or even special funerals. However, there is no such rigid rules for Chinese funerals, and they can wear all kinds of casual clothes.
The funeral was carried out step by step according to traditional Japanese procedures. At 9:10 pm, after most of the people dispersed, the mourning hall, except for Masao Ishihara, Saki Ishihara and Ryoko Ishihara, three people were left behind in front of their family members.
They are the vice president, chief distributor and lawyer of Karuizawa Whiskey Distillery. The lawyer took out a legal document from the black official bag beside him, which is a will made by the deceased during his lifetime.
Nowadays, he naturally needs to read out the distribution of the deceased's inheritance in front of the three parties and two witnesses, saying: "Karuizawa Whiskey Distillery, the ancestral home, and the related land are owned by Masao Ishihara.
Ryoko Ishihara and Saki Ishihara could only take away the jewelry, clothing and other items in the room, except for the personal belongings of their mother and daughter, that is, the jewelry, clothing and other items they bought for them during their lifetime.
As for the antiques, calligraphy and paintings of the Ishihara family, as well as the things left by their deceased wife and their parents, they cannot be taken away, and they will be left to Masao Ishihara.
Masao Ishihara needs to be responsible for the future life expenses of Ryoko and Saki, mother and daughter, to ensure that their current quality of life does not decrease.
If Ryoko doesn't get married for a day, Masao needs to continue to support her on behalf of her, until she dies. Masao will also be responsible for all the expenses incurred by Saki's future study."
After listening to the will read by the lawyer, Masao Ishihara, Ryoko Ishihara, and Saki Ishihara expressed satisfaction.
As the only bloodline of the Ishihara family, it is completely natural that Masao Ishihara inherited the entire Ishihara family and inherited the property of the entire Ishihara family.
As long as Ryoko Ishihara does not get married in the future, her future will be completely guaranteed and she does not have to worry about her future livelihood. She is middle-aged and a woman of her age will not think about remarrying at all.
If she really wants to remarry, she will find a man who can not only fall in love with but also give her better material and living conditions than she is now.
If there is such a man, how can he like him? Others will only choose a younger and more adorable girl than her.
What's more, she still loves Masao Ishihara in her heart, and she always regards Masao Ishihara as her son and as her own.
As for Saki Ishihara, although his brother can't support him for the rest of his life, he can support him until he finishes graduating from college.
In addition, he also has to be responsible for his personal future study expenses. This means that she has no financial worries before officially entering society.
Even if the mother and daughter don’t get much real property, they will not change their future quality of life and lifestyle.
Through the lines of the will, Masao Ishihara not only inherited the entire family business, but also understood another meaning of his father. Even if he was gone, he hoped that the three of them could still live the whole family like when he was alive.
Masao Ishihara not only has no rejection of his adopted mother and sister, but also hopes to continue living with them.
In the past ten years after his mother's death, her adopted mother had never abused herself once, but instead took care of herself.
Even if he goes to Tokyo to study for university, he will receive calls from her every week and things she sends to herself every month, and these things are what he likes to eat on weekdays.
His relationship with Saki is also very good. Although there were conflicts between the two, they were all small conflicts between brothers and sisters.
Masao Ishihara took the initiative to turn his body, turned sideways to face his adopted mother and sister, and bowed, and said seriously: "If you are willing, please don't move out of here and continue to live."
Ryoko Ishihara bowed back, cried with joy and accepted happily, "I will definitely do it."
Saki Ishihara also bowed to his brother-in-law and said, "I will definitely do it, too."
