When Le Xiao’s classmate received visitors in the dormitory, Mr. Chao’s family also sent away more than ten guests who had sent invitations, and welcomed another group of visitors - Lieutenant General Yuan and his grandson Yuan Weijie came to the door.
During the New Year's Day holiday, Mr. Yuan also took the vacation at home. He deliberately found out where the Chao family, young and old, were spending the New Year's Day, and brought his grandson to Chao Erye's house with gifts.
Uncle Hu invited the Yuan family's ancestors and grandson into the small side hall on the first floor.
Xiao Lele exposed her medical talent, and the three Chao brothers also predicted that there would be a lot of visitors in the recent period. If entertaining guests on the second floor would affect their family's life, they temporarily used the small hall on the first floor as a reception area for guests.
p>
In addition to the banquet hall on the first floor of the villa, there are also two middle and small halls. The small hall is originally the place to receive distinguished guests when there is a large banquet. It is full of everything. It is similar to a public reception room. There are seats in the middle and two seats on both sides.
There are seats, and there are small tables with tea cups and snacks between the seats.
Miss Chao also brought the baby back to accompany the old man and his wife. Old Mrs. Chao, old man Chao and his brothers and sisters lived at home on the second floor, while the sons were in charge of the downstairs.
The three brothers took turns to be responsible for waiting on the guests, and one couple was responsible for two hours. After waiting for the guests, they took a rest. Chao Yi and his wife started work at eight o'clock, and Chao Er and his wife took over at ten o'clock.
Mr. and Mrs. Chao Er received a group of guests as soon as they took over. Less than five minutes after seeing off the guests, Mr. Yuan arrived with his grandson.
Uncle Hu invited Mr. Yuan into the small hall and helped a pair of grandparents and grandchildren hang their coats on the clothes rack at the door. Mr. Chao greeted warmly: "Which fragrant wind blew today brought Mr. Yuan to the humble house, please."
Please take a seat."
"Dr. Chao, I'm ashamed to say it. I shamelessly came here today to apologize to the little girl of the Chao family for my unfulfilled grandson." When Mr. Yuan entered the hall, he only saw Mr. and Mrs. Chao. His heart skipped a beat. Mr. Chao was old.
Both his wife and Chao Yi and Chao San avoided seeing him, fearing that it would be difficult to talk about their grandson.
The furnishings in the Chao family's living room are all high-end and light in color. They are not as serious as the public sector reception halls, but still have a very formal feel. Young Master Yuan was nervous and did not dare to take a random look. He held the gift box in his hand and looked at it honestly.
Follow your grandfather.
"Mr. Yuan, please sit down and talk slowly if you have anything to say." Mr. Chao laughed and helped Mr. Yuan sit down.
Standing and talking was not an issue. Old guest Yuan followed the host and sat down at the guest seat. Young Master Yuan put the gift he brought on the ground facing the small table, only daring to touch half of his buttocks to the sofa.
The domestic helper brought tea and fruits and then left silently.
Chao Sheng'an drinks tea with Mr. Yuan.
Mr. Yuan took a few sips of tea and asked: "Dr. Chao, are Brother Chao and the little girl back?"
"No." Chao Sheng'an smiled broadly: "Yesterday, Xiao Lele and Xiao Bo went back to school. Xiao Lele was prescribing some medicine. He said he didn't have time to come back during the New Year's Day holiday. Xiao Bo will probably come back tomorrow. There were a few guests just now.
I also sent a message to invite our little girl. We brothers decided to wait until the evening to tell the child, so as not to disturb Xiao Lele's study and work with repeated phone calls. If Mr. Yuan has anything to do with our little Lele, he might as well tell him.
, we brothers also relayed it when we called our children at night."
"Dr. Chao, I'm not afraid of your jokes. My unsatisfactory grandson did something stupid to the little girl. I'm going to show my face today and bring my grandson here to apologize to the Chao family and the little girl. I don't dare to invite the little girl."
I don’t care, I just hope that the little girl will give my grandson a chance to correct his mistakes.”
Old Yuan's face became hot, and when he mentioned what he wanted, he sighed.
Mr. Yuan lowered his head and did not dare to move.
Chao Sheng'an understood what he was referring to and answered in a light and descriptive manner: "Mr. Yuan is probably talking about Mr. Yuan molesting my little girl in the swimming pool, taking advantage of the fact that he was alone and weak, and acted like a hooligan to take advantage of Xiao Lele." When Yuan Weijie heard what Mr. Chao said, he knew that the young and old of the Chao family had long known that he had taken advantage of the little girl. His heart beat like a drum. Mr. Chao would never let him go if he knew he was teasing his sister!
Thumb, thump, there was a thud in Mr. Yuan's heart again. The Chao family knew about it, which meant that the little girl told the Chao family about his grandson and two boys playing hooligans on her. Now that Chao Er said it so calmly, he probably wanted to kill his grandson.
Do you have your heart?
"It's...that thing," Mr. Yuan said, feeling ashamed: "It was because Quanzi and I neglected to discipline the child, so that he grew crooked, and even took advantage of the girl outside, causing the little girl to be wronged. My grandson did
When something so embarrassing happened, even I felt ashamed to see anyone. I brought the person here and beat or scolded him. No matter how he was punished, I would never complain."
Yuan Weijie froze, stood up straight, and lowered his head uneasily: "I'm sorry, Mrs. Chao Dongchao, I was wrong. I apologize to the little girl, and I am willing to bear the consequences of my mistake."
p>
Mrs. Chao Er’s eyes were indifferent, neither saying she forgives nor saying she doesn’t forgive.
"Mr. Yuan, we can't make the decision in this matter," Chao Sheng'an said in a calm tone: "Xiao Lele told us the night before that he was being played as a hooligan by three young men. My old man and my old lady were so angry that they threw their arms around. Brother Bo
Er and Sister Fu almost went out to find someone to settle the accounts at that time, but Xiao Lele persuaded the old and the young, saying to see how the three little gangsters behaved. As for what kind of performance, even us elders
I don’t understand.
Mr. Yuan, you are here today. We will tell Xiao Lele in the evening. I can’t guess what the child will do. Mr. Yuan is a loyal and loyal man, and he is a close friend of my wife’s family. Let me tell you an inside story.
I don't know if it works or not. I heard from Brother Bo that Young Master Yan and Young Master Liu occasionally accidentally made Xiao Lele angry. Every time they did something to help Xiao Lele solve a small problem, they would be punished with merit. Xiao Lele couldn't see it.
If you like people or things that please your eyes, you will naturally be in a good mood, and you will no longer be angry with Young Master Yan and Young Master Liu.
As for other people bullying Xiao Lele, I heard from Brother Bo that there was nothing good to gain in the end. Even if Xiao Lele didn’t take action, Young Master Yan and Young Master Liu would help clean up the situation. Most of the time, even my Brother Bo would not be able to get involved.
."
Mrs. Chao Er wanted to help her forehead, but her man said it too plainly, couldn't he be more subtle and tactful? Speaking so clearly, she was telling Mr. Yuan: If you really want to apologize, show some sincerity and help Xiao Lele deal with her.
If you don’t like those guys, she’ll forgive you when she’s happy.
Who is the person Xiao Lele dislikes? After asking around, you will find out that it is of course Zhao Zongze, the prospective grandson-in-law of the Wang family. This is equivalent to telling Mr. Yuan that if you really want to apologize, just show it and go deal with the person named Zhao.
When Mr. Chao "revealed" the inside story, Mr. Yuan frowned more and more, helping the little girl solve minor troubles and deal with unpleasant people or things?
After Mr. Chao finished chattering, Mr. Yuan solemnly thanked him: "Thank you very much, Mr. Chao, for your guidance. I will go back and educate my unfulfilled grandson and let him strive for opportunities to perform."
"But I can't afford to give you advice. What I say may not be the truth. Just listen to Mr. Yuan's suggestion. After all, the elders in our family don't quite understand Xiao Lele's behavior."
What Mr. Chao Er said was true. Mr. Yuan did not worry about how to make the little girl calm down. He gave the gift he brought to Mr. Chao Er and his wife to show his sincerity in apologizing.
The ancestors and grandsons of the Yuan family brought a century-old wild ginseng, two bottles of famous wine that had been stored for a hundred years, a hardcover fruit basket, and two boxes of donkey-hide gelatin.
Mr. and Mrs. Chao only accept fruit baskets.
The master did not accept gifts, so Mr. Yuan could not force him, and he was too embarrassed to ask to see Mr. and Mrs. Chao and take his grandson away.
The Chao couple didn't say they would forgive themselves, nor did they tell them to sit down. Young Master Yuan just kept standing. When he wanted to go home, he picked up the box and followed his grandfather.
Chao Er and his wife sent the Yuan family out of the villa, and Uncle Hu sent Lieutenant General Yuan out of the private garden and drove away on the road outside the garden. As soon as Mr. Yuan's car started, a Bentley came slowly.
Uncle Hu was waiting at the door of the private garden. The Bentley came to a stop outside the courtyard of Mr. Chao's house. The middle-aged man in the passenger seat quickly got out of the car and opened the door. The first person to get out was a middle-aged man who had passed his life.
Wear a brown Tang suit and wear a long windbreaker that reaches your ankles.
Immediately after, a tall young man with a Chinese character came out of the car. He was wearing a black suit, a suit for cold weather, and a thin woolen sweater, looking like a green pine tree under the snow.
Uncle Hu recognized the middle-aged and elderly gentleman. He was Zhou Xin, one of the top richest men in Beijing. Zhou Xin was ranked twelfth on the Beijing rich list.
Seeing Director Zhou, Uncle Hu bent down slightly: "Welcome to you, Mr. Zhou, please come in, three of you."
"Thank you." Jay Chou nodded and strode toward Mr. Chao's villa.
Zhou Yinghao came as an entourage, and Zhou Yi followed behind Jay Chou. Zhou Yinghao did not dare to let the young master take anything, including a briefcase and a box of imported fruits.
Uncle Hu led the way and asked Jay Chou to the small living room on the first floor.
When Chao Erye and his wife heard the voices outside, they knew who was coming. They warmly welcomed Director Jay and asked Uncle Hu to collect the fruit.
Mr. Chao Erye has business dealings with a subsidiary of the Zhou family. He has met him many times at business banquets, but has not had much contact with him in private. He is mostly surprised and suspicious of Director Zhou's visit.
The guest of honor sat down and the domestic servant brought Mingqian Longjing tea.
After drinking tea, Mr. Chao said cheerfully: "Today is such a good day. Distinguished guests come to the door one after another, and even Jay Chou is here. I feel that the Chao family washed their faces with a footbath this morning."
"Dr. Chao is joking. It's not just today that the Chao family in Kyoto used a foot basin to wash their faces. I think the basin that the Chao family used to wash their faces in the past is as big as a foot basin, but they recently changed it to an extra-large basin."
Mr. Chao's unspoken meaning was that the Chao family had grown up with the new child and had gained a lot of face. Director Jay Chou also had a sense of humor and praised that the Chao family had always had face and recognized a new adopted grandson.
The adopted daughter is the icing on the cake.
"Oh, the extra-large basin belongs to our little girl. We brothers don't dare to use it. Our faces are too small and our talents are not good enough. We are afraid of being criticized by thousands of people." Chao Sheng'an said with a smile on his face: "Dr. Jay is so powerful today, I don't know.
He Meishi, shouldn’t he be the little dumpling who also washes his face in my large basin?”
"I'm really here for the smart and lovely little girl from the Chao family," Jay Chou didn't hide it, and frankly explained the purpose of his visit: "I think Chairman Chao and his wife have also heard that I have a little hobby of collecting. There will be many in Beijing tomorrow.
There is a jewelry, jade and antique fair. I would like to invite the two girls of the Chao family and the brothers of the Chao family to go and appreciate the treasures together, so that I can also enjoy the vitality and blessings of young people. I don’t know if the brothers and the girls of the Chao family are willing to appreciate the treasures.
."
Zhou Xin handed the briefcase to Director Jay on Monday, and Zhou Xin took out the invitation he had prepared and personally gave it to Chao Er and his wife to show his sincerity.
"Dr. Jay's kindness, I will definitely convey it to my children tonight. As for whether my three little guys will go to play, it's hard to say. The main reason is that my little girl is preparing some medicine, and she can't even go home to play during this New Year's Day holiday.
."
"It doesn't matter, the little girl can go and have fun when she has time. If she doesn't have time, she will naturally put her own affairs first. If the little girl doesn't have time, the same goes for Miss Chao Er and Young Master Chao."
"Haha, Jay Chou, my sister Fu and Brother Bo are sister-in-laws, you know."
"Hahaha, the love between brother and sister is so deep that it makes people envious."
"I accept this envy without mercy."
"I just realized today that Mr. Chao is such a wonderful person."
"Each other..."
After chatting for a while, Director Jay asked tentatively: "I vaguely heard that there was a guy who had eaten lard and bullied the little girl, making her unhappy. I wonder who the guy was who had eaten lard and was blinded, little girl.
Are you going to skin him and make him cramp or steam and braise him?"
"I get very angry when I talk about that," Chao Sheng'an said with an unhappy tone when he mentioned the old Chao girl being bullied: "The gangster who bullied the old Chao girl is the prospective fiancé of Mayor Wang's niece.
That is, that bastard Zhao Zongze, the stepson of Zhao Yixiong, the acting chairman of Feixia Group. The man named Zhao once saw that our little girl was cute, and he actually got into trouble and wanted to keep our little girl. It just so happened that the Wang family came with their prospective grandson-in-law the day before yesterday.
Well, the little guy recognized the gangster young man at the old man’s birthday party and refused to toast him. Only then did we find out the reason. At that time, the old man and the old lady almost exploded.
My elder brother and I were so angry that we wanted to kill the guy named Zhao, but the little guy was too sensitive and was afraid of attracting criticism from us, so we wouldn’t let us teach the guy named Zhao a lesson. Although the Chao family didn’t do anything, our little girl from the old Chao family was here.
The Chao family is being bullied right under their noses, so this tone must be spoken out. If Jay Chou or a close relative of Jay Chou has business dealings with the Chao family, and they ask Jay Chou to give Chao some thin noodles when the gangster Zhao is being suppressed, then they don’t know.
Love is good."
Mr. Chao Er was so angry that he talked a lot. Mrs. Chao Er apologized to Director Zhou in embarrassment: "I made Director Zhou laugh. My husband was very angry with Mr. Zhao. He mentioned it without knowing it."
I turned into a rage and lost my composure."
As she spoke, she handed the tea to her husband and asked him to drink some water to relieve his anger.
"Mrs. Chao Er, don't worry about these details. Your surname is Zhou, and my surname is Zhou. Although we have the same surname but different clans, we can't write two weeks in one sentence. There is no need to be too unconventional. Besides, Director Chao's behavior just shows that Director Chao has an upright character.
Zhongren, to be honest, if there were children like the little girl in my family who were bullied, I would never rely on them. I would not protect my children. No matter how much money I make, what would I do with it? I have no business dealings with the Zhao family.
There is no friendship, so don’t worry, Mr. Chao.”
The smile in Jay Chou's eyes became more genuine, and he expressed his position to reassure Chao Er and his wife that he would not support the person named Zhao, and there was no need to guard against him stabbing and causing damage.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but my hot temper made Director Jay laugh." Chao Erye took the tea and drank it in one gulp, his face softened, and he smiled at Director Zhou with a slight embarrassment.
"It's okay, it's okay. For those kind of rich second-generation gangsters who can't become great people, Mr. Chao doesn't have to worry too much. The little girl is so cute, there must be someone who can help Zhang Zhengyi and vent his anger on the little girl."
"I can't help it. The little guy is still so young. How could someone named Zhao have such evil thoughts? I don't know how many little girls he has harmed. It is unjust to not punish him. My little Lele said that she doesn't have enough medicinal materials now.
, I will prepare some medicine after collecting the medicinal materials, so that the gangster can no longer harm girls in his life and eliminate harm for the people. I fully support this."
Zhou Yinghao couldn't hold back his laughter. The little girl looked so white and tender, and she was still so tiny. It was so surprising that she would think of letting someone stay away from her for the rest of her life.
"Hahaha, the little girl has a wonderful idea. One move can solve the problem once and for all."
"It's good, it's just for little girls. This kind of medicine makes us elders feel shy and embarrassed when we hear it..."
The more Jay Chou and Mr. Chao chatted, the more they became more and more congenial. After chatting for about half an hour, they still had a lot to say. Considering that the host was tired from constantly receiving guests, Jay Chou took his leave.
Chao Er and his wife escorted Jay Chou out of the courtyard and watched them get into the car and drive away before returning to the villa.
Back in the small hall, Mrs. Chao Er asked strangely: "An, why did you say those things to Director Jay?"
"I did it on purpose. The Zhou family of Jay Chou is very mysterious. My intuition tells me that the young man who came with Jay Chou is the one who really makes the decision. It allows Jay Chou to see the young man's actions from the corner of his eye, which shows that the young man may come from the mystery behind the Zhou family.
Backstage. I didn't have any friendship with Jay Chou before, but he actually came to invite our three children to go treasure hunting. It must be that the mysterious backstage behind Jay Chou may meet someone who needs extraordinary medical skills. I have to try the Zhou family's
Attitudes and reactions can be used to determine whether the enemy is a friend, and it is also convenient to make countermeasures in advance."
"Enemy or friend?"
"We are not enemies at the moment. With Jay Chou's personality, he does not like Zhao Zongze and Zhao Yixiong. If the Zhao family is valuable to the Zhou family, the mysterious backstage behind the Zhou family will not support anyone named Zhao for the time being. Xiao Lele
The value of the Zhao family exceeds that of the Zhao family. Even if the Zhao family is useful to the Zhou family, it will only become an abandoned son."
"You men, you have so many twists and turns."
"Just let me take care of the twists and turns. Madam, just do what you like."
The couple looked at each other and smiled, warmth flowing in their eyes.
When Jay Chou left, he sat in the back seat with Mr. Zhou as he had come. On Monday, he sat in the front seat with the driver. The car slowly left Mr. Chao's house. On the way, he met two more cars. Looking at the cars, he knew Mr. Zhou. They were also visiting Mr. Chao.
.
"Young Master, what do you think of the second master of the Chao family?" After leaving the villa area, Director Zhou respectfully asked Young Master Zhou.
"You help stomp on that guy surnamed Zhao, let the little girl vent her anger." A smile condensed in Mr. Zhou's eyes, and his ordinary face with the Chinese character suddenly became vivid and bright.
"Yes." Dong Zhou understood what the young master meant. The young master believed that the Chao family was trustworthy, so he helped repair the family named Zhao to express the Zhou family's position to the little girl.
It is easy to step on the little Zhao Zongze. It is as easy to step on the Zhao family as it is to step on a dung beetle. Because the Feixia Group of the Zhao family is almost owned by the mother of the grandson of the He family, and the inheritance is inherited by Yan Xing, the grandson of the He family.
No one touched the Zhao family on my behalf, otherwise someone would have cleaned up the Zhao family long ago.
