Jiang Yi didn't want to go. The marriage had not been approved by Xiao Yicheng. No mother in the world wanted to see her son unhappy, but now the situation forced her to make such a sacrifice.
Since last night, Mr. Xiao has enlightened Jiang Yi again and again. Anyway, Jiang Yi is also Xiao Yicheng's biological mother. She should not be absent on such an important occasion.
"Here you are." master Xiao's voice came out from inside. There was no wind in the quiet morning. Master Xiao suddenly opened his mouth and set off the originally silent room more coldly.
"Dad, I brought everything you asked me to prepare. The white marble carving is placed on my rear seat. Don't worry. Nothing has fallen. The people of the ancient family will be satisfied. If you are ready, we can leave now."
"I won't say more nonsense, but I still want to tell you something. First of all, ah Cheng doesn't know about it, and I don't intend to let him know. You know by his temperament, and don't screw it up.
You have the most contact with him on weekdays. This boy is very smart. You should pay attention to what you say. Don't let him find anything. Even if he is dissatisfied, wait until the matter is over. "
Xiao Hai stood up, walked to Xiao Yizheng step by step, stretched out his hand to tidy up Xiao Yizheng's collar, and deliberately forced his back. Xiao Yizheng saw some bad taste in his heart, which was an unspeakable sadness. His father hadn't done a thing so seriously for a long time.
"Let's go." Xiao Hai's voice sounded dull and confident. Seeing this, Jiang Yi hurriedly followed Xiao Hai and trotted to hold Xiao Hai. Her face was full of dignity.
Xiao Yizheng opened the back compartment and revealed a gift for the old master. It didn't look like much. It was as big as two boxes. They were all rare gadgets. A pair of white marble Unicorn carvings were given to him by an antique friend many years ago. It was a gift that the old master had treasured for many years. In the box on the right is a beautifully packaged box, with patterns carved in gold, which looks valuable at a glance.
Jiang Yi opened the box. Inside were two sets of cheongsam made of Shu brocade, one in rose red and one in smoke blue. It was beautifully embroidered with gold and silver thread. Ye Shuzhen has heard many times that Luo Hongyu, the ancient lady, likes cheongsam. If she asks someone to do something, she must do what she likes. That's why she made every effort to get these two treasures.
Xiao Hai nodded and acquiesced: "very good. Your work really reassures me."
Xiao Yizheng nodded: "this time these things are not only prepared by me, but also thanks to Shu Zhen. She heard that Mrs. Gu likes the cheongsam of Shu brocade, so she spent a lot of money to buy it."
Xiao Hai took care of the waiter, loaded it and got on the car with a crutch.
The driver Xiao Zhang started the car and the car drove fast and smoothly. Xiao Hai sat in the co pilot's position, eyes looking ahead, holding a crutch tightly in his hand. Jiang Yi and Xiao Yizheng sat in the back seat, and they were relatively speechless.
The car was surprisingly quiet. The air became dull and depressed. Xiao Yizheng didn't dare to make a sound. He even gasped and lowered his voice. He carefully observed master Xiao's look through the back view, only a pair of deep eyes. His eyes were deep and calm, and Xiao Yizheng couldn't guess his mind.
"Dad, are you still worried?" Xiao Yizheng finally opened his mouth and asked tentatively.
Xiao Hai turned his head and glanced at Xiao Yizheng and Jiang Yi. If he didn't pay attention, he wouldn't see it at all. Xiao Yizheng waited for master Xiao's answer. He was afraid that Xiao Hai would suddenly repent, so everything he had done would be wasted.
"Nothing. When you arrive at Gu's house, you should know what to say and what not to say. Gu Shaohua has been smart all his life. He won't even be unable to see the purpose of our trip. You made him so angry last time. It's hard to guarantee that he won't drive you out this time. So you should be prepared. If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan. All you can do is try not to talk and leave the rest Just leave it to me. "Xiao Hai said faintly, as if he was ordering an ordinary thing.
"I know that even if he scolds me, I won't say no." Xiao Yizheng said thoughtfully with his head down.
Half an hour later, Xiao Hai vaguely saw the ancient house.
"Xiao Zhang, just park here." Xiao Zhang found a place to park the car. Xiao Yizheng got off first and went forward to open the door for Mr. Xiao.
The housekeeper Lao Li saw a silver Jeep coming from a distance. The car was well maintained and the body was polished. At first glance, it was not an ordinary family. Housekeeper Li thought, how do you think this car is so familiar? It seems that you have seen it somewhere? But I can't remember for a moment. I can't help patting my forehead. It seems that I'm really useless and my memory is getting worse and worse.
"Ah hang, come and see if this car has been to our house before?" housekeeper Li called the young man who was trimming the branches.
"Hey, Uncle Li." the young man looked carefully for a long time, but he couldn't see why. "Ouch, this car looks familiar. It seems that there was such a car parked at our door a month or so ago, but if you ask me who I am, I really don't know."
Housekeeper Li frowned for a long time and waved to the man, "go ahead and help you." housekeeper li felt more and more familiar, but he couldn't remember who the owner of the car was for a moment and a half. Vaguely, he could only see an old man sitting on the co driver of the car.
Until Xiao Yizheng got out of the car, housekeeper Li remembered that this was Xiao Yizheng? What's he doing here again? Housekeeper Li pushed the reading glasses and took a closer look. Ouch, this time not only Xiao Yizheng, but also the old man and wife of the Xiao family.
Housekeeper Li hurriedly greeted the man again: "ah hang, do you see if that's the last person from the Xiao family?" ah hang went forward, looked at it carefully, and hurried back: "Uncle Li, it's really!"
"Well, you wait here now. When they come in, go tell them and let them wait below. I'll tell the master what the old man of the Xiao family usually doesn't leave home. What are you doing in our house?" housekeeper Li said, holding his waist and moving his feet.
Just after breakfast, Gu Shaohua and Luo Hongyu were reading newspapers in their study. Today, Gu's group made headlines again. Gu Shaohua was secretly pleased that ah Zhen really had his own way to start business. Looking hard, I heard an urgent knock on the door: "Sir, madam."
Gu Shaohua and Luo Hongyu looked at each other. What would happen so early? Gu Shaohua continued to read the newspaper: "come in."
Housekeeper Li stood at the door, holding his waist and panting.
Luo Hongyu put down his book and said, "what's the matter? Lao Li, what's so urgent? Take your time."
Housekeeper Li's forehead was dripping with sweat, and his hands were holding his waist all the time, looking very painful. Sure enough, I'm old. If I take two steps, I have to take a break.
"Master, madam, Xiao Yizheng is here again, and this time there are the master of the Xiao family and his wife. I told the guys downstairs to wait and arrive in a moment."
Gu Shaohua put down the newspaper and couldn't believe it: "Xiao Hai? What's he doing here? At the beginning, his son brought Ye Shuzhen to my house to make trouble. I haven't settled with him yet. Now he sent it to the door? Tell him, it's gone!" Gu Shaohua's angry beard flew up and shook.
"You old man, you are always angry. I'm afraid you've just come back from the hospital. It's really a good scar and forget the pain." Luo Hongyu scolded him.
"Xiao Hai is not unreasonable. Things are so big. What if people come to the door to apologize? We should see each other anyway. Otherwise, it seems that we are stingy."
"He came to apologize to me? I'm afraid it's not that easy! It's been so long. Why didn't you apologize early? The weasel paid a new year's greeting to the chicken. It's not kind! It's gone!" Gu Shaohua was so angry that he almost scolded the street.
"Lao Li, you go and tell them that we'll go down and let them wait below." after a lifetime, Luo Hongyu really can't help taking Gu Shaohua. He gets angry like a child. It's really a headache.
"Are you sure you won't go? Well, since you don't speak, I have to go down by myself. Alas, I can only carry the mountains and fires by myself." Luo Hongyu made a gesture and went downstairs.
"Madam, can't I go? It's just that Xiao Hai has come. It must be nothing good."
Lao Li went downstairs first. He saw Xiao Hai and Jiang Yi standing. He hurried forward and made a salute: "Hello, Mr. Xiao, madam. I'm the housekeeper of the ancient family. Just call me Lao Li. I'm a little confused with my legs and feet. I'm very sorry. I've kept you waiting for a long time. The master and madam will come down right away. Please wait a moment." then he asked Xiao Hai and his party to sit down, And let the girl offer everyone a Biluochun.
"Housekeeper Li, you're welcome. We're guests. Naturally, we'll listen to your arrangement." Xiao Hai sat down with Jiang Yi's help.
Housekeeper Li smiled. The old man of the Xiao family was really not a good annoyance. On the surface, he was polite to housekeeper Li. In fact, he told himself that we should do a good job in Hospitality and should not neglect him. Housekeeper Li thought about the scene when Xiao Yizheng came. It was really not a bit bad.
As they exchanged greetings, Gu Shaohua and Luo Hongyu came down the stairs. Xiao Hai got up and came forward to hold Gu Shaohua's hand.
"Hello, I haven't seen you for many years. You are still so energetic and young." Xiao Hai smiled. Jiang Yi and Luo Hongyu smiled and nodded behind each other.
Gu Shaohua smiled and hurriedly took out his hand: "what brother Xiao said, you are not the same?" Gu Shaohua invited Xiao Hai to sit down: "think about our family, we haven't seen each other for a long time. I don't know how we have time to come to me today? This is Biluochun brought back by ah Zhen from his origin. Brother Xiao, how do you taste it."
"Ha ha, brother Gu is really a happy man." Xiao Hai took a sip of tea and put it on the table. His face was dignified. It took a long time to speak.
"I'm ashamed to say that I'm here not for myself, but for my two sons. First, I apologize for what Yi Zheng did last time. I didn't expect Yi Zheng to be so reckless when he was so old. It's just a brain. I just learned about it recently and lost the face of the Xiao family. I'm deeply sorry for the trouble caused to the Gu family.
But Yizheng is not unforgivable. He loves his daughter very much. Brother Gu also has daughters. I think everyone can understand. But brother Gu rest assured that there is a mistake. He should never make trouble in the ancient house. I Xiao Hai is not a protector of his shortcomings. I will teach him a good lesson if he is wrong. "
