We discuss possible parallel textures of the Yukawa coupling matrices in the generaltwo-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM). In those textures the flavor changing neutral currentsare naturally suppressed. Motivated by a phenomenologically successful texturewith four texture zeros in the standard model, we propose a predictive ansatz for the Yukawa coupling matrices with the same texture in the general 2HDM. Compared with the six texture-zero based ansatz proposed by Cheng and Sher, it is in a better agreement with the data of quark mixings and CP violation. The four texture-zero based ansatz predicts a different hierarchy in the Yukawa coupling matrix elements. As a consequence, in the lepton sector, the related Yukawa couplings are less constrained by the experimental upper bound of $\mu\to e\gamma$, which allows significantly larger predictions for other processes. The contributions from neutral scalar interactions to the lepton number violation decay modes $\ell\to \ell_{1}\ell_{2}\ell_{3}$ are calculated in both ansatz. It is shown that the predictions from the four texture-zero based ansatz could be two order of magnitude greater than that from the six texture-zero based one. The branching ratio of $\mu\to 3e$ and $\tau\to 3\mu$ can reach $7.5 \times 10^{-17}$ and $1.3\tiems 10^{-10}$ respectively. The predicted ratio of $Br(\mu\to 3e)/Br(\tau\to 3e)$ is also larger and almost parameter independent. Those differences make the two ansatz to be easily distinguished by the future experiments.
