Chapter 8: The old man is angry
Xu Yi didn't want to think about it, but he had a vague premonition in his heart, and he always felt that the person who came was not good.
He laughed at himself, maybe it was the shrewd, ruthless, and powerful aura of that young marshal that made people feel threatened, so he had this idea, right?
âS-h-i-tīŧâ With a low curse, he lowered the window, and he popped the cigarette butt out of the window, then stepped on the accelerator and drove off into the distance.
At the end of the road, there is the Xu family's mansion.
European-style villas have all the facilities, rich and luxurious, and the servants are all equipped with a separate bungalow.
The status of the Xu family in the country of Heguo is not only ordinary, Master Xu is highly regarded by the president, he is nearly seventy years old, he still holds military power, is in charge of the Seventh Army, and has been re-elected as the commander for nearly 30 years.
The Xu family has been a military family for generations, and the gate is strictly controlled, and family members must go home before 9 o'clock in the evening, otherwise the family law will serve.
Of course, Xu Yi is an exception.
He is Xu Zhenbang's only son, and he has a son in middle age, so he naturally has high hopes.
In these years, half of the power of the Seventh Army has been handed over to him, and it is inevitable that he will have to deal with military affairs at night, and it is understandable that he will return late.
When Xu Yi stepped into the hall, it was exactly eleven o'clock, and the old housekeeper Xu Jiang waited in the foyer as always, and when he saw him, his tense expression relaxed.
"Third Young Master, you're back!" The butler suppressed his voice, and his tone was relieved.
"The old man is angry again?" Xu Yi touched the right side of his neck, and his fingertips touched the dried blood.
He didn't frown, and the butler noticed the wound and asked with a panicked expression, "How can it be injured?" â
"Isn't it common for me to get hurt?" Xu Yi ignored it and walked into the hall.
The hall is brightly lit, and the lights are still on at this point, indicating that the old man has not slept.
He went straight upstairs to the study on the second floor, and sure enough, when he pushed the door, he saw that his family was there.
"Daddy." He said hello to his father in the leather chair behind the desk, and Xu Zhenbang turned his back to the door and did not turn around.
The atmosphere in the study was not right, especially the two girls on the sofa were with their eyes down and their faces were pale.
When "Ah Yi ......" saw him, the girl with short hair spoke softly, her eyes showed joy, and asked him for help.
Another long-haired girl raised her eyes, her eyes were red, she had been holding back her grievances for a long time, and tears fell in an instant.
Xu Yi frowned, stepped forward lightly, and asked in a low voice: "...... What's up? â
The long-haired girl choked slightly, her eyes were aimed behind the desk, and she didn't dare to cry, but she just tugged at his sleeve.
"Second sister?" Xu Yi looked at the short-haired girl, frowning.
The short-haired girl shook her head and pointed to the desk with a worried face, but she didn't dare to make a sound.
Xu Yi's face sank, seeing that the situation was mostly caused by the second sister, which made the old man angry, and it is estimated that the matter is not small.
"Father......" he walked over and routinely reported to his father, "Last month, the Seventh Army was the first in all inspections, and the sixth asked me to tell you to ask you for a drink on the weekend." â
"Do you want to drink or take advantage of the opportunity to blackmail?" As soon as he mentioned the affairs of the army, the old man immediately changed his attitude and turned around, "You remember to tell the sixth brother when his Sixth Army will be the first three times in a row, and I will invite him to drink for a year!" âĻâĻâ
Xu Zhenbang's face was majestic, but his words were joking, which eased the atmosphere a lot.
The two girls breathed a sigh of relief and secretly gave Xu Yi a thumbs up, and the Xu family could also settle the old man with this younger brother.
knows how to change the topic to resolve the atmosphere, and the topic is just right, which simply saves them from the dire situation.
