Seeing that Cheng Yu was showing signs of getting angry, Du Xiaoyu curled her lips and stopped being angry with him.
I thought that this matter had finally come to an end, but when I returned to the yard on Hujing Road, the old man Cheng Qingsong naturally saw his eldest grandson coming and danced with joy. Not to mention, when he was about to eat,
Cheng Yu always felt that his mother Ning Kezhu and mother-in-law Wei Lan looked at him strangely.
Cheng Yu repeatedly warned himself that it wasn't really that there was anything wrong, but that there was something wrong in his heart.
What people are most afraid of is that they have ghosts in their hearts, so they will be suspicious of everything they look at.
Isn’t this how the idiom story “Ye Gong loves dragons” comes from?
Cups, bows, snakes, shadows, grass and trees are all soldiers, this is what it means.
However, no matter how Cheng Yu adjusted his mood, he couldn't resist the idea of having a barbecue in the backyard today, so Cheng Guangnian waved to Cheng Yu.
"Yu'er, follow me to the backyard and start the charcoal fire."
Cheng Yu didn't know that there was no cooking at home tonight, but a barbecue. He asked strangely: "Why are you making a charcoal fire?"
"Oh, today your mother and your mother-in-law said they wanted to have a barbecue in the backyard..."
Cheng Yu raised his eyebrows and was about to speak when he saw Cheng Qingsong clapped his hands, like an old naughty boy, and said with a smile: "The barbecue is good, it's all meat. Let me eat some vegetables and leaves these days. I'm afraid
It's not a rabbit, why do you keep asking me to eat vegetables and leaves? It's better for my eldest grandson. You see, I will have meat to eat as soon as Yu'er comes back."
Cheng Yu's original objections were immediately suppressed.
He had no choice but to walk towards Cheng Guangnian, and when he and Ning Kezhu were shoulder to shoulder, he still couldn't help but say: "Mom, you said it's so cold in this cold weather, and it's almost the Chinese New Year. Why did you remember to have a barbecue by yourself? The north wind blows.
Phew, it’s so cold to have a barbecue in the yard.”
"It's okay. I've already asked people to put all the heaters at home in the yard and form a circle to make sure they won't freeze you."
Cheng Yu's eyes darkened, and he thought he was surrounded by heaters for barbecue? If word spread, Wu Dong's Cheng family and Du family would be surrounded by a group of heaters, wouldn't it sound good?
Following Cheng Guangnian to the backyard, Du Changfeng said he wanted to help, but Cheng Guangnian stopped him, and Ning Kezhu also stopped him. So, the four of them stayed in the house, while Cheng Yu and Cheng Guangnian went to burn charcoal bitterly.
There is a special small stove that is plugged in. It has a grid and a grid inside. Whether it is long charcoal strips or round or square charcoal blocks, you can place them inside.
Just plug it in, close the door, and you don't really need anyone to care about it.
All one has to do is to put the charcoal in and stack it, then take out the red-hot charcoal and put it into the stove under the barbecue grill.
The father and son had a clear division of labor. Cheng Yu was responsible for putting the red-hot charcoal into the barbecue grill, while Cheng Guangnian sat by the small electric stove and just watched the charcoal turn red before calling out to Cheng Yu.
"Yu'er, your business trip is quite long." Cheng Guangnian had nothing to say.
Cheng Yu was quite unaccustomed to such short-lived chats with his father. Usually, the father and son would either start a quarrel directly, or they would only talk to each other when something happened. This kind of family chatting, asking for help and looking for something to talk about, had happened as early as when Cheng Yu was twelve years old.
It never happened again after that.
"It's not bad. Sixteen days and seventeen days is not too long. When I go to South America, it takes four or five days just to go back and forth. It's already been a week since I started to finish it. In fact, I didn't even stay there for that long.
sky."
"What business needs to go to South America?"
"I can't tell you clearly about the company's affairs. I generally don't care about your company's affairs."
Cheng Guangnian looked at Cheng Yu and shook his head, wondering why it was so difficult to talk to his son.
After transporting another batch of charcoal, Cheng Guangnian said again: "I just came back today, have you rested well this afternoon?"
"It's okay, and I'm used to staying in the United States, so the jet lag doesn't have much of an impact on me. Lao Cheng, are you okay? Or do you have something to say to me? If you have anything to say, just say it."
Cheng Yu was actually beginning to feel vaguely worried at this moment. After all, it was unprecedented for Cheng Guangnian to greet him like this.
Cheng Guangnian hesitated for a moment, sighed, and said, "It's not convenient for your mother to mention this to you, so let me do it. We are both men, so it's better to talk about this kind of thing."
"You're not going to say something about me and Xiao Yu, are you?" Cheng Yu was very wary. After all, Aunt Zhang "broke it" personally, so Wei Lan must know it, and Ning Kezhu must know it too.
But Cheng Yu didn't expect that Ning Kezhu would raise this issue with Cheng Guangnian.
But when you think about it, it's really embarrassing for them. Although Ning Kezhu is Cheng Yu's mother, she is still a woman. It seems that it is not easy for women to talk to their sons about such issues of marital life.
But mom, can't you be normal? Is your son the kind of person who has no control and no self-discipline? Don't say that Du Xiaoyu and I really have nothing. Even if we have something, I'm not the kind of person who wants to do it three times a night and has no time every day.
The master who came here for a while.
Besides, look at your son's body. Does it look like he's overindulged?
Seeing that Cheng Yu's face turned a little dark, Cheng Guangnian also guessed that this kid must have guessed something.
He said: "This little farewell is better than a wedding. It's okay for the young couple to be a little anxious. But after all, this kind of thing is done behind people's backs. There is a servant living there. His voice was high and low, and he was excited for a while.
It's inevitable, but if you lock the door, it won't happen."
Cheng Yu rolled his eyes and put the burned charcoal into the barbecue grill.
"What, Lao Cheng, the charcoal is almost enough. If we continue to burn it, we can only eat charcoal. Don't put any more in the stove."
Cheng Guangnian nodded, stood up, clapped his hands, and said: "Young people, it's okay to have desires and passions. This is a good thing. If they were like people of our age, I would be worried.
Again, our family is not like those ordinary people's families, where there is no one else except the young couple.
At least you have Aunt Zhang. Even if you go back to our house or your father-in-law's house, there will be helpers at home.
Be careful."
Cheng Yu is now mute and eats Coptis chinensis. He really cannot express his suffering.
But this is good, at least in a certain sense, it saves Cheng Guangnian and Du Changfeng from having a grudge.
"Are you done? After that, let's go back and ask them to come over for a barbecue?"
Cheng Guangnian nodded and clasped his hands behind his back, but still said: "Your mother originally wanted me to tell you not to be angry because of your youth, but to be restrained. But I don't think you are that kind of person.
A child who doesn’t know the depth. I believe you should understand that people need to know how to control..."
"You are the only one who wants to call me mom?
I think that's what you and she want to say.
Come on, I know all this. I am not bragging, Lao Cheng. With your body and bones, I will spare you an arm and throw you into the lake easily. Am I going to overindulge and be drained by wine and sex?
Please talk to my mother and ask her not to think about getting any supplements from me, and also ask her to communicate with Xiaoyu's mother. Xiaoyu and I know very well that some things should not be done too frequently. We have always controlled it very well, so well that she
The old man even asked Aunt Zhang to observe us, wondering whether Xiaoyu and I were both keeping pure and pure.
So, let her not let Aunt Zhang get me any supplements, will they be willing to make me bleed all over, right?"
After all, Cheng Yu didn't care that Cheng Guangnian's old face turned red and white, and left in disgrace.
Looking at Cheng Yu's back, Cheng Guangnian was angry and funny. In the end, he laughed out loud.
"You brat, you are such a bastard. Give me an arm and throw me into the lake? How many years have I used this ancient martial arts card? Is it possible that you want me to try it on you again?"
Cheng Guangnian shook his head and whispered to himself.
The words were blown to the lake by the wind, causing waves of ripples.
Soon, Cheng Yu led Du Changfeng, his wife and his mother back to the backyard. Cheng Qingsong followed, and Du Xiaoyu supported him.
"Dad, it's windy outside. Why don't you stay in the house? I'll roast the meat in a while and I'll bring it in for you." Cheng Guangnian saw Cheng Qingsong and hurriedly stepped forward and said.
Cheng Qingsong glared at him and said, "Barbecuing is fun. Besides, look at the heater you have to put on for seven or eight times. There is no wind tonight, so it won't keep me cold."
Cheng Guangnian wanted to say something else, but Ning Kezhu also said: "Guangnian, please let dad play for a while. We probably won't be here for a long time. It will get dark later. Let's leave this place to Xiao Chen and the others. Let's go in too. Now.
It's not windy yet, so let's ask dad to stay with us for a while."
Seeing this, Du Changfeng nodded and said: "The weather is not bad, let the old man wait for a while. It's rare that he is so happy."
Cheng Guangnian sighed and said, "Except for seeing me, he is always happy."
"Haha, then you have to pay attention, Old Cheng. If the old man is happy except seeing you, it means there is something wrong with you as a son! You are in your fifties, so don't worry about business matters all the time.
Learn to let go.”
"Let go? Let go so that you can catch up and overtake me completely?"
"I don't mean that. Now I want to hand over Du Shi directly to Xiao Yu, but I'm not like you. How many shares of Du Shi do I still have?
Our whole family, including Xiaoyu’s, is still far away from holding a controlling stake.
If I let go now, those people will definitely unite and find ways to exclude Xiaoyu and Xiaoyu.
I have no idea either.
Unlike you, who controls the whole company by yourself. Even if you ask Xiao Yu to take over right now, I don’t think anyone would dare to say a word.
We are different."
Cheng Guangnian smiled coldly and said: "Don't talk cheaply to that person. If it is so easy to take over, it will not be difficult to win this country. I will definitely retire when I retire, and now is not the time."
"I didn't say that I would let you retire now. What I meant was that we should gradually shift our focus and learn to gradually arrange the things at hand. To tell you the truth, I am preparing now. I plan to let Xiaoyu retire within five years.
He Xiaoyu will take over the entire Du family. Of course, the premise is that Qianjin operates normally."
As he spoke, Du Changfeng looked at Cheng Yu and then at Du Xiaoyu, there was something in his words.
Qianjin is operating normally, and this is not just about Qianjin.
A former brocade has Xu Dong watching over it, Du Xiaoyu himself has to worry about it, and when it comes to research and development, Cheng Yu and Xue Changyun's research institutes have to worry about it. It is impossible for there to be any problems in operation.
Du Changfeng's words were talking about Qian Jin on the surface, but they were actually talking about Cheng Yu and Du Xiaoyu on the inside.
Qianjin came into being because of the marriage of Cheng Yu and Du Xiaoyu. As long as there is no problem with their marriage, Qianjin will never have any problems.
"The children are in charge of Qianjin. I believe they are well-informed and will not let anything go wrong with Qianjin." Cheng Guangnian also said something meaningful, and at the same time looked at Cheng Yu and Du Xiaoyu.
Cheng Yu felt a slight shiver in his heart. Looking at Ning Kezhu and Wei Lan's appearance, it was obvious that this afternoon's episode and Aunt Zhang's small report were enough to convince these two women that he and Du Xiaoyu were truly in love.
But these two half-hearted old men were obviously still wary of what they said.
In other words, they never intended to use this kind of thing to make any judgment from the beginning to the end?
Otherwise, it means that these two people have already seen some clues?
Cheng Yu frowned slightly, but hurriedly relaxed, fearing that Cheng Guangnian and Du Changfeng would notice something.
After baking for a while and drinking two glasses of red wine, the wind started to pick up outside.
Cheng Guangnian invited everyone to come into the house and called Xiao Chen, the chef at home, and asked him to continue grilling meat for everyone.
Looking at the M12 Wagyu beef cut into long strips and threaded on bamboo skewers on the plate, Xiao Chen shook his head speechlessly and said: "Sir, why don't I take the beef in and let you guys fry or stir-fry it? This is the best."
It’s really a waste of resources to eat Australian Wagyu like this.”
Cheng Yu clapped his hands and said: "It's simply the truth! There's nothing more correct than this. Once the charcoal fire was roasted, the outside was burnt and the inside was bleeding, and the meat was still covered with charcoal ash. The cold wind blew again,
The freshly roasted beef has a layer of fat on the outside. Parents, can we put it in the house and let Xiao Chen roast it on the iron plate?"
The four elders looked at each other, and Cheng Qingsong was also very dissatisfied and said: "Look, I didn't eat any delicious meat. They were all half-cooked. My mouth was black, and every bite gave me blood. At first, I was still
I thought it was because my teeth were bleeding!"
Everyone burst into laughter, and Cheng Guangnian waved his hand and said, "I'll listen to you, Xiao Chen, pack it up and take it in. These are all good ideas given by the good wives of our two families."
After entering the house, Xiao Chen quickly finished cleaning up, brought in the good Australian Wagyu beef, cooked it in the kitchen, and served it to the table.
Cheng Yu ate two pieces of meat, took another sip of wine, and said with satisfaction, "Is this like a normal dinner?"
Cheng Qingsong ate so much that his mouth was dripping with oil and refused to let go. Everyone tried to persuade him, saying that Wagyu beef was fatter and asked him to eat less. After talking for a long time, Cheng Qingsong got Cheng Yu's promise to take him to eat hamburgers in two days, and he finally
Finally, I reluctantly let go of the remaining beef.
Around nine o'clock, everyone left happily.
Of course, except for Cheng Yu and Du Xiaoyu, they are really trying to survive in the cracks.
Cheng Yu and Du Xiaoyu checked and found that in addition to Cheng Guangnian talking to Cheng Yu, Wei Lan also talked to Du Xiaoyu.
There is only one theme, there are only tired cows and no plowed fields, which makes Du Xiaoyu know how to feel sorry for Cheng Yu.
Du Xiaoyu didn't know much about this aspect, so after hearing this, he could only pretend to be humble and accepting. Anyway, he didn't dare to say more, for fear of making too many mistakes.
Fortunately, Wei Lan felt that Du Xiaoyu was a girl and was embarrassed to talk about these topics, so she didn't pay much attention to it and let her go.
The car couldn't be driven. Du Changfeng had a driver himself and called over directly.
Cheng Guangnian helped Cheng Yu find a driver to take the second child home.
After saying hello to Du Changfeng and Wei Lan, the two finally got in the car.
But he didn't dare to speak when he got into the car. After all, the driver was Cheng Guangnian's.
So Cheng Yu and Du Xiaoyu were silent all the way until the driver drove the car into Wudong Courtyard Community. After parking, he came down and thanked the driver. Cheng Yu and Du Xiaoyu watched the driver leave and relaxed for a long time.
Take a breath.
They looked at each other and felt that they didn't dare to talk nonsense now when they went back. What if Aunt Zhang overheard them?
After discussing it, the two decided to go to Lao Tun's place.
I called Lao Tun. Lao Tun was about to close the stall. If Cheng Yu went by himself, Lao Tun would not care about anything if he didn't guarantee everything. He would just wait until he arrived and hand the shop over to him and tell him to remember to close the shop.
But since Du Xiaoyu was coming, Lao Tun reluctantly agreed to prepare food for them.
Cheng Yu thought for a while and called Guan Lu and Gao Yiming respectively.
Guan Lu said that he and Meng Yiren had gone to bed, but Gao Yiming said that he would be there immediately as if he had been given a shot of blood.
By the time Cheng Yu and Du Xiaoyu took a taxi to Tuna, Gao Yiming had already arrived half a day ago.
Lao Tun told them that within a few minutes of hanging up the phone between them, Gao Yiming had already opened the door curtain and got in, as if he had been waiting for Cheng Yu to give orders.
Seeing that Cheng Yu came with Du Xiaoyu, Gao Yiming was a little confused. Can he talk about the Chilean and Falkland Islands matters?
After Cheng Yu sat down, Gao Yiming touched him lightly and winked at him.
Cheng Yu knew what Gao Yiming meant, so he shook his head slightly, and Gao Yiming understood.
"What did you say you were doing, as if you were lurking near Jiutun? According to what Lao Tun said just now, did you already walk into Tuna just after I hung up the phone with you?" Cheng Yu drank.
Sip some sake and say with a smile.
Gao Yiming rolled his eyes at him and said: "Isn't this a summons from Young Master Cheng, and I have to rush to meet the saint? What's the matter, do you think I'm redundant? Yes, just in time, I have a little sister over there, I'll leave it here.
My beautiful little sister doesn't want to come here to accompany you. You think I'm redundant."
Cheng Yu laughed and said to himself that I really think you are a bit redundant at the moment. I thought that if I call you, it will take a while for you to come over. In this time, Du Xiaoyu and I will have finished everything we need to say. Who knows?
Gao Yiming came so violently?
But as soon as Gao Yiming said it, Cheng Yu also knew that Gao Yiming was obviously drinking on this street. After receiving the call, he probably just raised his legs and turned this way.
But although Gao Yiming basically understood the matter with Du Xiaoyu, Cheng Yu was really embarrassed to say it in front of him.
We are all friends. If Gao Yiming knows this, will he laugh to death in the future?
Fortunately, Gao Yiming had already stood up and said, "I thought you came here alone, young master. Since Xiaoyu is with you, I will go back and continue to accompany my little sister."
Cheng Yu thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's okay."
Gao Yiming rolled his eyes resentfully and said, "You really want me to leave, then why did you call me here?"
Cheng Yu explained with a smile: "Xiaoyu and I have some family matters to talk about. I originally thought that you would arrive later, and I thought it would be time to finish talking to Xiaoyu. Who knew you would be here. So, I
Let’s chat with Xiaoyu for a while, and I’ll give you a call when I’m done.”
Du Xiaoyu also said: "Well, I have to go to Bao'an on a business trip tomorrow morning. I won't be able to stay for a while. After I finish talking to Cheng Yu, I asked him to find you. You can also take him to have a little sister."
Gao Yiming shrugged: "Okay, then I'll wait for your call."
