Xie Bingqian returned home with her father, and the car drove slowly to the garage. The old housekeeper had already held an umbrella and came over to help Xie Shihao and his daughter get out of the car.
The rain is too heavy and the umbrella is too small.
Even though it was covered on the head, Xie Shihao's suit and Xie Bingqian's hair were still wet.
Including the housekeeper, the three of them ran into the living room in confusion.
Xie Shihao flicked the raindrops on his body, glanced at Xie Bingqian and said: "You go upstairs to change clothes first!"
When we were holding an umbrella just now, Xie Bingqian was taking care of her father's health, but it was raining too much.
Xie Bingqian nodded and went upstairs.
The housekeeper here asked the servant to hand over a towel to wipe Xie Shihao's face, and then ordered the servant: "Fourth sister, make some ginger tea for the master to warm yourself up! It's easy to catch a cold in this damn weather."
The fourth sister hurriedly accepted the promise and went to make tea.
Xie Shihao wiped his face, handed the towel back to the housekeeper, and then gave some instructions and asked if the eldest and second young masters were back.
The housekeeper said they haven't come back yet.
Xie Shihao: "Let me know when you come back. I'll go upstairs and change clothes first!" After that, he walked up the stairs, thought for a while and said, "If they come back, just ask them to wait for me in the study!"
"Okay sir!"
Almost half an hour later, the eldest young master Xie Dongcheng and the second young master Xie Xi returned home as if they were drowned.
Just as the housekeeper was about to go forward and repeat what Xie Shihao had told him, he was pushed away by the young master Xie Dongcheng: "Don't stop me! Don't you see us like this?" After saying that, he went upstairs.
The second young master Xie Xi saw the butler's embarrassed look on his face, so he smiled and said: "Be patient, he has a bad temper today! I'll go upstairs to change clothes too! By the way, what do you want to say?"
"My master has told me that if you come back, go to the study to find him."
"Okay." Xie Xi smiled and followed his elder brother upstairs. However, the moment he went upstairs, the smile on his face disappeared and was replaced by bitterness.
Things are really not going well today.
I don’t know if the Xie family can survive.
Soon, in Xie Shihao's study.
When Xie Dongcheng and Xie Xi changed their clothes and appeared in their father Xie Shihao's study, they saw their sister Xie Bingqian already standing next to them with ginger tea, while Xie Shihao was calmly practicing calligraphy in the study.
At this time, the fourth sister knocked on the door and came in, but she had made ginger tea.
Xie Xi had quick eyesight and quick hands. He immediately took the ginger tea from the fourth sister and personally helped his father to bring it in. Then he stood next to Xie Shihao and quietly watched his father prepare the invitation.
Xie Dongcheng is very impatient with his brother's behavior. He doesn't even look at the current situation of the Xie family and still does this kind of thing. Do you really think you are a filial son?
Although he thought so in his heart, Xie Dongcheng also followed, accompanying his father Xie Shihao with his brother Xie Xijiu and sister Xie Bingqian, watching him copy the copybooks without saying a word.
What Xie Shihao copied was Liu Gongquan's "Mysterious Tower Stele".
This "Mysterious Pagoda Stele" has a total of 28 lines, each line has 54 characters. It narrates the kindness that Master Dada received in the three dynasties of Dezong, Shunzong and Xianzong. It commemorates Master Dada's deeds and informs future generations. Its structure
The writing is compact, sharp, with exposed muscles and bones, full of masculinity, the handwriting is like carving with a knife, and the thickness of the strokes varies, and the style is distinctive.
Whenever he encountered a major change, Xie Shihao would copy this inscription to stabilize his mind and help him make the next calculation.
At this moment, Xie Shihao finished writing the last word, took a breath, put down the pen, took a sip of ginger tea to dispel the cold, and then looked at his three children: "Are you back?"
"Yes, Father!"
Xie Dongcheng and Xie Xi said in unison.
Xie Shihao nodded, "How are things going?"
Xie Dongcheng looked at his younger brother, then looked at Xie Shihao: "It's so miserable! You also know that I am running for parliament. Now it's fine, and there is nothing left! Especially those on the election committee, they are all just following the wind. Damn it, once they see that I am losing power, they will all run to my opponent! I will definitely lose this election!"
"What about you?" Xie Shihao looked at his second son Xie Xi again.
Xie Xi also said with a bitter look on his face: "Not to mention my side, I have found many banks, hoping that they can lend us loans, and I even revealed that our Xie family is willing to put up assets as guarantee! But they all reject--"
"Why?"
"Because our sins have offended people who should not have been offended..." Xie Xi hesitated.
Tse Shi-ho has heard a lot of legends about Shi Zhijian recently, especially on the day of the Lee family's condolence, Shi Zhijian was even more explosive! First, Hong Kong's four major real estate developers Li Zhaoji, Li Ka-shing and others traveled across the ocean to attend, and then the mayor of Bangkok, Wang Chai, followed closely Then came General Bandung, the big boss of the Thai military, and finally, even more outrageously, the ambassadors of Britain, France, Germany and the United States came together, all for the purpose of getting to know Shi Zhijian!
When Xie Shihao heard these "rumors", he had a new understanding of Shi Zhijian.
But even so, he never expected that Shi Zhijian's power was so powerful that he could influence the life and death of the Xie family.
"As far as I know, those bank bosses have more or less cooperative relationships with Shinhwa Group. Shi Zhijian is a financial boss to them. They will not go against Shi Zhijian for us at all!" Xie Xi said.
"Besides, it's just that we can't get a loan because of Shi Zhijian, but what makes me even more angry is that many companies have put our Xie family to death in order to curry favor with Shi Zhijian! In their words, they want to avenge Shi Zhijian! I will take revenge. Your mother, what do our grudges with Shi Zhijian have to do with you?" Xie Xi couldn't help but curse.
Xie Shihao was speechless.
Shi Zhijian's ability has exceeded his imagination.
Xie Bingqian's beautiful eyes sparkled, but she didn't know what she was thinking.
Only Xie Dongcheng looked unhappy and said: "Is this still justified? A mere Shi Zhijian has made our big Xie family crazy, and now it is facing bankruptcy!"
After saying that, he sighed unconvincingly, looked at his family members with a hint of complaint, and said, "Everything was fine originally, but you made so many messes that made me so embarrassed!"
Xie Xi immediately retorted: "Brother, what you said is wrong! Our family has been doing a lot of things to support your election! If nothing else, just giving gifts is not a small sum! Also, You are always like this, blaming everything and everyone when things happen, and blaming others as hard as you can, thinking that others have harmed you. Why don't you look for the cause within yourself? If you are really that good, why do we, the family members, need to praise you? "
"What do you mean by that? Speak clearly!" Xie Dongcheng said angrily, pointing at his brother's nose: "I know you are dissatisfied with me. You think that not only have I failed to help the family through my official career, but I have also been causing trouble for the family... "
"Isn't it?" Xie Xi interrupted the eldest brother, "To put it nicely, you are pursuing an official career, but to put it bluntly, you are spending money to buy an official career! But the question is, how big is your head and what hat should you wear? How do you think about it? For You, our Xie family has spent almost three to four million. If that money had been kept until now, it might have been able to save the money, but now it has all been wasted by you!"
"You, you, you -" Xie Dongcheng pointed at Xie Xi and said, "What is your attitude?"
"What kind of attitude do you think I have?"
"Don't think that I don't know. The reason why you supported my election before was just to inherit the family property alone!"
You accuse me of all sorts of things, are you right?"
"I don't--"
Xie Xi was about to retort————
"That's enough!" Xie Shihao couldn't bear it anymore and smashed the tea cup to the ground with a bang, and the warm ginger water splashed all over the floor.
Xie Dongcheng and the other three were all frightened and looked at their father together.
Xie Shihao was holding the table with one hand and holding his chest with the other hand, breathing heavily.
"Father!" Xie Bingqian stepped forward to pat his back and smooth his heart.
After a moment, Xie Shihao calmed down and looked up at his two sons: "As the saying goes, father and son are soldiers on the battlefield, and brothers are brothers in fighting tigers! But what about you? What were you doing just now?"
Xie Dongcheng and Xie Xi just bowed their heads and remained silent.
"What time has it been now and you are still blaming and blaming each other? Will this solve the problem?"
Xie Dongcheng and Xie Xi lowered their heads even lower.
"Also, since I'm not dead yet, I have the final say on the Xie family! There are only three pounds of nails in the broken ship, not to mention our huge Xie family? Even if our Xie family really goes bankrupt, whoever I let inherit the remaining property will inherit it! No.
People can make irresponsible remarks!"
Xie Dongcheng looked up at his father after hearing this, opened his mouth, and wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything.
Xie Shihao glanced coldly at his two sons.
Xie Dongcheng lowered his head again.
Xie Xi boldly raised his head and said, "Father, what you taught me is that my eldest brother and I just had some... ahem! Just like you said, now our Xie family should work together to overcome the difficulties!"
"It's useless to say it, what can you do?" Xie Shihao looked at his son.
Xie Xi glanced at his third sister Xie Bingqian intentionally or unintentionally, hesitated for a moment and said, "I wonder if father knows about the recent news that has been circulated by the Li family?"
"You mean-"
"That's right, it's the Li family who are planning to turn their hostility into friendship and marry Shi Zhijian, so that Shi Zhijian can marry his precious daughter Li Xuexuan!" Xie Shihao seemed to have guessed something when he heard this. He didn't say anything, but touched his chin with his hand.
Xie Dongcheng seemed to understand, and he raised his head and said: "We can do this too! Just imagine that Li Zhaotian was killed by Shi Zhijian, and now Li Yaozu not only doesn't trouble him, but marries his daughter to him, this is called happiness! It's also direct.
The feud between the two families has been resolved!"
After saying that, he looked at Xie Bingqian eagerly: "Third sister, you are beautiful and the unique female princess of our Xie family. It is said that Shi Zhijian is lustful by nature and can't even move his legs when he sees a woman. If you use a beauty trick,
He will definitely take the bait!"
"Yes, Third Sister!" Xie Xi reached an agreement with his eldest brother for the rare first time, "I mean exactly what eldest brother means! If we want to save our Xie family from suffering, then we have to sacrifice you! As long as you can handle it
Then Shi Zhijian, then Shi Zhijian has no need to deal with us anymore!"
"Think about it, as long as you deal with him, our Xie family is his in-laws, my father is his father-in-law, and the two of us are his brother-in-law and brother-in-law. We are all a family, so how can he bear to take action?"
Xie Bingqian never expected that her eldest brother and second brother would come up with such a "sexy idea" to sacrifice her looks to seduce Shi Zhijian!
"Nonsense!" Xie Shihao saw his daughter's expression turned ugly and slammed the table.
This anger startled the three of them again.
Xie Dongcheng and Xie Xi hurriedly looked at their father.
Xie Dongcheng explained: "Father, this is the only way to save us!"
"Yes, I just need my little sister to show her dedication, sacrifice herself, and help everyone!" Xie Xi said.
Xie Shihao rolled his eyes in anger, "I am so blind that I raised you two beasts! She is your biological sister, and you are using her innocence to play tricks?!"
Xie Dongcheng and Xie Xi still wanted to explain, but Xie Shihao pointed at them and said angrily: "Shut up! You don't need to explain anything!" After saying that, he looked at his daughter Xie Bingqian: "Don't worry, dear daughter! As a father, I am not an old fool yet.
!I will never make fun of your innocence, let alone let you feed the tiger with your body - that Shi Zhijian is like a tiger and a wolf, and the eagle looks at the wolf! How can I bear to let you deliberately seduce him and use some kind of beauty trick! This is simply
Extremely shameless!”
After saying that, Xie Shihao put his hands on the table and looked up to the sky and sighed: "Even if I die, our Xie family goes bankrupt, your eldest brother goes to beg for food, and your second brother is hacked to death by debt collectors, I don't want you to sacrifice yourself! There are three of us.
Big man, even if you survive, how can you go to see your dead mother?!" After saying this, Xie Shihao burst into tears, and his body was crumbling due to grief.
Xie Bingqian couldn't bear it anymore, and hurriedly stretched out her hand to support her father: "Don't say it, Dad! I am willing, it is my own wish! I am willing to deal with that Shi Zhijian! Don't worry, I will never let the Xie family go bankrupt.
, let the company go bankrupt!”
"Daughter! Woohoo!" Xie Shihao burst into tears.
"Father!" Xie Bingqian also burst into tears.
Xie Dongcheng and Xie Xi, who were standing next to them, were also moved by the sight. They couldn't help but feel sore eyes and red circles under their eyes.
After a long time, Xie Shihao comforted his daughter and asked her to go back and rest first.
Xie Bingqian turned back step by step before leaving the study.
Her heart was still tangled and struggling.
After all, she is a girl, but she has to do what dancers do.
After his daughter left, Xie Shihao swept away the sad look on his face, glanced coldly at his two precious sons, and criticized: "You guys! You can't even do this well, how can I expect you in the future?"
Shine your family name and support me in my old age?"
"Huh?" Brothers, you look at me and I look at you.
"Remember, you need to use psychology to persuade people, especially when dealing with girls like your sister, you need to use bitter tactics!"
The two brothers were dumbfounded, looked at each other, and then looked at their old father together: "Father, you--"
"What am I? Girls' families will all have foreign surnames from now on! If you can save our Xie family, not just one, but even ten of them, I can sell them!"
