Chapter 22: Because of Love
(Ask for collection, ask for recommendation...) )
Guo Dan's reaction was also very fast, and he pretended to be stunned and said: "The younger generation is stupid, I don't know where the old gentleman started?" ”
The old man smiled: "Do you want the old man to call that Chen Fangyuan over and ask me to understand?" ”
That bad old man, he didn't keep his promise, this is a piece of fart. Guo Dan was secretly angry in his heart, and immediately put the eighteen generations of Chen Fangyuan's ancestors together and cursed them.
The old man seemed to see what Guo Dan was thinking, and said with a smile: "Don't blame him, the old man went fishing in the southern suburbs that day, and happened to meet you doing good there, but he didn't want to say it, it was the old man who forced him to say it." ”
Guo Dan suddenly stepped forward and saluted, "The junior Guo Dan has seen the uncle. ”
"It's not a loss to be a tooth person, but this eyesight is not bad." The old man smiled and nodded, then stretched out his hand and said, "Sit down." ”
This old man is none other than Xing'an Bo Xu Mengxi.
"Thank you."
After Guo Dan sat down, Xu Mengxi said: "I won't tell you, the old man mainly wants to see you today, there are countless wizards in this world, but the old man doesn't understand why you want to hide it, and would rather be scolded by others than show your true skills." ”
Guo Dan groaned slightly, and sighed: "Don't hide it from your uncle, the reason why the younger generation is hiding it is only because the ambition is not here." ”
When Xu Mengxi heard this, he couldn't help but be curious: "How do you say this?" ”
Guo Dan said: "For my father is a showman, my lifelong wish is to get a meritorious scholar, but unfortunately I failed to do so, Guo Dan is a son of man, and naturally wants to fulfill my father's last wish. But my father-in-law is a businessman, and he hopes that the younger generation can inherit the family business, and if he lets the father-in-law know that the younger generation will do business, he is afraid that he will not agree to let the younger generation take the test to gain fame, so he hides it. ”
"I see."
Xu Mengxi nodded, and said: "This person has his own ambitions, since this is the case, the old man will not force you." ”
This made me fool through, saying that I am a genius, but in fact, it is not an exaggeration! Guo Dan was secretly happy and said, "Thank you for your understanding." ”
Xu Menghui said again: "In fact, compared to fine wine and food, the old man prefers poetry and articles, and the old man is also quite interested today, we might as well cook wine and discuss articles." ”
"Cook... Boiling Wine... On the article? Guo Dan said in a trembling voice.
Xu Mengxi said: "Isn't it okay? ”
"Okay...... Oh! Uncle, you are only eight years old, rich in learning, full of economy, the younger generation is just a fledgling child, how dare you discuss articles with you, uncle. Guo Dan said with sincere fear.
He really can't do this thing, he can't memorize a few of the three hundred Tang poems, he really doesn't want to do it!
"Bastard!"
Xu Mengxi suddenly slapped the table and shouted: "Huangkou Xiaoer, dare to talk in front of the old man, this scholar and old man have seen a lot, which one is not arrogant, how can there be someone like you who is so easy to pretend to be crazy and stupid, you are not quick to recruit from the truth." ”
Damn, how could I make such a mistake and say that I am a scholar in front of a scholar, isn't this sending my face over for people to be beaten! Guo Dan secretly complained to himself, and at the same time he was very curious, and asked rhetorically: "Please forgive the juniors for being rude, the juniors want to know why the uncle is so interested in the juniors." ”
Xu Mengxi coughed lightly and said, "Curious! ”
This is a big truth, because Guo Dan's behavior is really incomprehensible, how can anyone be willing to be a waste of this nest.
"I see." Guo said lightly: "Uncle, can the younger generation not say it." ”
"Of course not." Xu Mengxi's answer was neat.
Guo Dan was silent for a while, and suddenly sighed: "I don't hide it from my uncle, it's because of love." ”
"Because of what?" Xu Mengxuan ear canal.
"Love."
"Love?"
Guo Dan nodded and said, "I have always loved my wife deeply, although she doesn't love me, but I am willing to be a wreck for her." ”
Xu Mengxi frowned and said, "This old man doesn't understand very well. ”
If you don't understand, if you do, I won't say that. Guo was secretly happy, and a wry smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "My father-in-law has no children under his knees, so he recruited me as a son-in-law, but I know that Neiko is unwilling to do this, she feels that her ability is not weaker than that of men, and she also likes to do business very much, if I show my true ability, then my father-in-law may hand over the tooth shop to me to take care of, but this will make Neiko sad, in order to make Neiko happy, I can only pretend to be stupid and be willing to be this green leaf." ”
Xu Mengxuan frowned and said: "You are a manly man, you should be the master of the house, but you are willing to fall for a woman, and you are embarrassed to say it." ”
I'm embarrassed to say that you had to force me out, didn't you see the goosebumps I had all over the place? Guo Dan was speechless, but the other party was an earl, so he couldn't fight with him, so he said: "The uncle taught a lesson, but... But there is a kind of love called incorrigible, and I know that may not be right, but I just can't do anything to make Uchiko sad. ”
"Alas... You're hopeless! Xu Mengxi sighed, he couldn't prove whether Guo Dan was lying or not, "The old man will believe you, but the old man knows your details, and you don't need to hide it in front of the old man, I don't know what you think of the old man's winery?" ”
You really take yourself seriously, and if you ask me, you're going to say it! Guo Dan said: "Uncle Mingjian, the younger generation is a scholar, and has never done business in accordance with the rules, the last time Chen Lou was a matter, the younger generation is just a trick, those methods are not on the table, if the other party knows that the younger generation is manipulating behind, it will never succeed, if the uncle wants to sell a jar of wine at a good price, the younger generation can help, but such a large transaction, the younger generation is really powerless, but the younger generation's father-in-law and inner son are very good." ”
It seems that Chen Fangyuan is right, this kid is really cunning. Xu Mengxi groaned a little and said, "Aren't you afraid that I will tell you about it?" ”
Of course I'm afraid, but I'm even more afraid of being threatened. Guo Dan hurriedly said: "Please also ask the uncle to raise your noble hand, don't say it, it hurts Neizi's heart, in fact, the younger generation really wants to help the uncle, but there is really nothing you can do, please forgive the uncle." ”
Xu Mengxuan was silent, not angry and arrogant.
However, Guo Dan is not a fledgling, this does not scare him, there is no way to relieve the urgent need of the Kou family last time, and now he already feels bored about these business matters.
At this moment, a servant walked in and said, "Master, the little master is back." ”
Xu Mengxi's old eyes flashed with anger, and he gritted his back teeth and said: "That evil animal dares to come back, and the old man can't spare him today, so let that evil animal come in." ”
Guo Dan hurriedly got up and said, "Uncle, the juniors will leave first." ”
Xu Mengxuan snorted.
Guo Dan hurriedly slipped away, but before he reached the door, Xu Mengxuan suddenly said loudly: "Wait." ”
Guo Dan turned around, barely squeezed out a smile and said, "Is there anything else wrong with Uncle?" ”
Xu Mengxuan said, "You sit down first." ”
"Oh."
Guo Dan sat back helplessly.
"Grandpa, grandpa, grandson is back."
An intimate shout was heard outside.
But when Xu Mengxi heard this voice, his face was covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder.
Before the sound fell, I saw a fifteen or sixteen-year-old white-faced posterior running in happily.
Guo Dan's face was shocked, is it him?
This later life is Xu Mengxi's grandson, Xu Jirong, who is also one of the double wastes in the capital with his name.
The double wastes are gathering again.
Xu Mengxi glanced at Guo Dan, his expression was a little embarrassed, obviously he knew this title.
Xu Jirong also saw Guo Dan and said in surprise: "What are you doing in my house?" ”
Guo Dan almost didn't laugh, and you were embarrassed to scold me for being a waste.
"Son, kneel."
Xu Mengxi shouted angrily, like thunder.
Xu Jirong was frightened, but pointed at Guo Dan, "What did you tell my grandfather?" ”
Guo Dan looked confused.
"Don't kneel yet."
Xu Mengxi was so angry that he stood up directly.
Xu Jirong saw that his grandfather was furious, so he knelt down, but there was no fear on his face: "Grandpa, why did you let your grandson kneel, there are still outsiders here, can't you give your grandson a little thin noodles." Speaking of the back, he looked aggrieved.
Xu Mengxi stepped forward and said, "Let me ask you, did you spend 1,200 taels a few days ago to buy a piece of wasteland that can't grow food. ”
Xu Jirong suddenly frosted like an eggplant, hung his head and whispered: "Grandpa, you know everything." ”
"You loser, sooner or later, our Xu family's business will lose in your hands." Xu Mengxi was furious, and his muscles were exposed.
Guo Dan said secretly, just go down at this progress, sooner or later, maybe you will be able to see it in your lifetime, and then you can let go of everything and go into the soil with peace of mind, perfect.
Xu Jirong argued: "Grandpa, it's no wonder that grandchildren, but grandpa, you asked your grandson not to buy that green building, and said that if you want to buy it, you will buy land, and your grandson completely obeyed grandpa's instructions and took the money to buy land, but who knew that Li Shouqian and the thin monkey joined forces and set a trap to cheat grandchildren of money." ”
A touch of embarrassment flashed in Xu Mengxi's eyes, and he reprimanded: "You are still quibbling, who buys the land and doesn't go to see it with your own eyes, even if you don't go, you can call someone to go, but what about you?" You know how to eat, drink, and splurge all day long, and you say, how many times have you been deceived? ”
Xu Jirong scratched his head and said, "My grandson doesn't remember." ”
"You ......."
Xu Mengxuan raised his hand violently, and after a while, he suddenly looked at Guo Dan.
Guo Danzheng was engrossed in watching the excitement, and was still muttering in his heart, damn! Why don't you fight it, just beat it to death, like this kind of incarnation, I would have been killed a long time ago. Suddenly, when he saw Xu Mengxi, he was stunned, and then he reacted, quickly got up, and pretended to say: "Uncle, please calm your anger, if you raise your hand so high, it will kill people." ”
Xu Jirong nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "Grandpa, he's right, this will really kill people, grandson is the ninth generation of our Xu family!" ”
As soon as Xu Mengxuan heard the single biography of the ninth generation, he was immediately so angry that his brain was starved of oxygen, and he pointed to the door and said, "You son of a...... Give the old man to kneel outside the door, the old man doesn't want to see you. ”
"Grandpa......."
"Get out."
Xu Jirong pursed his mouth, stood up with an aggrieved face, and then walked out swaggeringly, not at all like he went to kneel, but like he went to the Qinglou.
"This son of a... Alas.... ”
Xu Mengxi closed his eyes and sighed: "The old man really hopes that he is like you, and he is also pretending to be crazy and stupid." ”
Are you complimenting or belittling? Guo Dan comforted very perfunctorily: "Uncle, the little uncle is still young now, and when he grows up, he won't be so naughty." ”
"It's not small."
Xu Mengxi shook his head, sat down, and sighed: "It's all my fault, his parents died early, and he only left this lone seedling to my Xu family, so the old man loved him very much, and from childhood to adulthood, he protected him everywhere, so that he developed his wanton and stubborn character. ”
Why are you telling me this? Guo Dan nodded perfunctorily.
Xu Mengxi suddenly glanced at Guo Dan and said: "Regarding the winery, if you don't want to help, then the old man won't force you, but there is one thing, the old man hopes that you can help." ”
