Chapter 20 Euphemism
"I don't care about anyone in this house, but I really love you as my sister, but you plot against me like this." Xin Xiaoyue said, shedding tears.
Then, she wiped away a tear she shed, opened the door, and walked out openly. Unexpectedly, as soon as she came out, she saw Jiang Chengyou smoking at the top of the stairs, leaning against the wall.
The lights in the corridor were not very bright, and the wind blew in from the open corridor window on the side, and the smoke was filled.
Xin Xiaoyue paused and walked upstairs calmly without saying hello.
Jiang Chengyou put out the cigarette, chased after Xin Xiaoyue and blocked her. He chuckled and said in a low voice: "You are such an interesting person, I can't see through it."
"Then do you want to see through it?" Xin Xiaoyue raised her eyebrows and looked at him with a half-smile.
"Do you want me to see through it?" Jiang Chengyou lowered his head and asked.
"That depends on whether Mr. Jiang's sincerity is enough." Xin Xiaoyue said.
"What is enough sincerity?" Jiang Chengyou looked at her with a smile.
He felt more and more that it was normal for Lao Jiu to fall into trouble. This woman was too smart, and even Shang Yuetang beside her was not an economical person.
"For example, the surveillance of this house and even Sangqian Road this week." Xin Xiaoyue wanted to check and was still thinking of ways to get surveillance, so Jiang Chengyou came to her door.
Of course, she didn't expect this person to really provide her with the surveillance. It was just that the other person asked her to put forward conditions. If she didn't mention them, she would be looking down on the other person.
She, Xin Xiaoyue, has always been very respectful.
"Interesting, I hope you won't break your promise." Jiang Chengyou found this woman more and more interesting, so he handed her the business card and said, "If you want it, call me tomorrow afternoon."
"Although I am a woman, I still promise a lot of money. I will repay kindness when I say it, and I will take revenge when I say revenge. I am true to my word." Xin Xiaoyue looked at Jiang Chengyou and said seriously.
Jiang Chengyou nodded, laughed, and said, "Well said, I like this character."
Xin Xiaoyue glanced at him, stopped talking, and went straight to the second floor.
The conversation on the second floor was already controlled by Shang Yuetang. Shang Yuetang did not show any stage fright and went straight to talk about making porcelain and their Shang Family Martial Arts School.
Shang Yuetang is the most active girl in the dormitory. She speaks in a rhythmic and rhythmic way, which is very charming and has the flavor of a storyteller.
The two old foxes drank tea and listened, and they listened with great interest. Mr. Jiang would ask questions midway.
Xin Xiaoyue sat down and made a second pot of tea, while Jiang Chengyou sat down next to Mr. Jiang. Looking at Shang Yuetang and Xin Xiaoyue, she felt that today's trip was really interesting and not boring at all.
After Shang Yuetang finished talking about the Shang Family Martial Arts School, Xin Xiaoyue brewed a pot of Tieguanyin.
The old man was a connoisseur of tea. He took a sip and was full of praise. Jiang Chengyou whispered: "Old man, it's time to go back."
When the old fox heard Jiang Chengyou's suggestion, he became anxious and quickly glared at Xin Xiaoyue sternly.
Xin Xiaoyue pretended not to understand and said obediently: "Although I can't bear to leave Grandpa Jiang, it's getting late today and Grandpa Jiang needs to go to bed early. Xiaoyue, I won't leave you alone."
"The days are long. When you have time, come up to Shanghai and stay with me, an old man." Mr. Jiang stood up.
However, the old fox tried to persuade him to stay. Mr. Jiang waved his hand and said, "Weiguo, let's talk alone."
"Yes." When the old fox heard this, he quickly led Mr. Jiang to his study.
Xin Xiaoyue, Shang Yuetang and Jiang Chengyou were left. The three of them sat at the table and tasted the freshly made top-notch Tieguanyin in a tacit understanding. They were relatively silent for a while.
In the study, Mr. Jiang said straight to the point: "Weiguo, Xiaoyue is better than I thought."
"What do you mean, brother?" the old fox asked respectfully.
"I like her very much." Mr. Jiang sighed, "When I see her, I think of my eldest daughter who died young."
"This kid is really considerate and hard-working." Xin Weiguo praised dryly. In fact, he had never cared about Xin Xiaoyue, including her studies.
"Weiguo, it is precisely because of Xiaoyue's excellence that I have re-evaluated my previous thoughts." Mr. Jiang said straightforwardly.
"What do you mean, brother?" Xin Weiguo asked anxiously.
Mr. Jiang said: "I was overjoyed to meet you again. There are not many people we met back then. At that time, I heard that you had three granddaughters, and I had some thoughts."
Xin Weiguo felt very irritable after hearing this kind of foreshadowing, but he still pretended to listen respectfully.
When Mr. Jiang saw that he was silent, he continued: "I thought at that time that my ninth child was still single, and we were buddies who had gone through life and death, so it would be good to get married. Secondly, I thought that I could help out.
If your granddaughter becomes my granddaughter-in-law, the Jiang family will still have some ember power and can bring a little help to the Xin family. Therefore, on the day of the banquet, I mentioned to you that I intend to let Xiaoyue meet my old nine.
.”
"Brother knows that I was also very happy when you mentioned this matter." Xin Weiguo said.
Mr. Jiang looked at Xin Weiguo doubtfully and asked, "You are not a deaf person. Have you really never heard about Lao Jiu?"
"The world likes to take quotes out of context and make things out of nothing. How can you believe the rumors? What the child is really like depends on those of you who are close to him. We have to look at it carefully and with our eyes." Xin Weiguo said with great dignity.
Mr. Jiang nodded in approval, and then said: "Most of the rumors are untrue. However, Lao Jiu encountered some changes when he was young, and his temper is not very good. I really like Xiaoyue when I see her."
"Men always have a temper. When we were young, weren't we like that?" Xin Weiguo said with a smile, "This temper is nothing to worry about."
"Well, the ninth child in my family is an inconspicuous person. In short, I like Xiaoyue very much. As for the marriage of the two children, we have to investigate further." Mr. Jiang made a conclusion on the matter.
"Brother is always cautious and meticulous in his work. I listen to him." Xin Weiguo was very polite.
"Weiguo, I don't dislike Xiaoyue, I really like this child." Mr. Jiang was afraid that Xin Weiguo was too worried, so he emphasized again.
"Brother, I understand." Xin Weiguo said quickly.
He is a person who is good at calculations. After seeing what Jiang Haining said, he knew that it was impossible for Mr. Jiang to decide on the marriage tonight. He still had a trump card in the matter of being too impatient to eat hot tofu.
When the time is right, just add some fire.
"Weiguo, don't say that you understand, but in your heart you think that I look down on you. My temper is beyond words. Xiaoyue is so outstanding. I'm afraid that I will wrong Lao Jiu.
." Mr. Jiang emphasized here.
Xin Weiguo said quickly: "Brother, please stop saying this. I would like to ask, how many days will you stay in Jincheng? Last night and tonight, we talked at night, but we were not happy."
Xin Weiguo wanted to seize the time when Jiang Haining was in Jincheng and finalize the marriage before deciding on the next step.
And Mr. Jiang's greatest success in making his family business so big is to know people and make good use of them, and to recognize people with a keen eye. Now that he has taken a liking to Xin Xiaoyue, he is thinking about letting the two of them meet at least once.
Therefore, he changed the original one-week itinerary without authorization and said to Xin Weiguo: "Jincheng is the hometown of my late wife. I have to stay here for a while. We have plenty of opportunities to talk."
Xin Weiguo breathed a sigh of relief. Mr. Jiang also had his own plans. They both looked at each other and smiled with satisfaction.
