Uncle Guan replied with a smile: "The old man is here." ”

"Can you take me to meet him?" Nan Chen was very polite.

"Of course. Uncle Guan stretched out his hand to the door: "Miss Nan, please." ”

Nan Chen walked to the main entrance of the Zhou family's villa.

It is said that the threshold of the Zhou family is very high, how many famous nobles have no way to go further, and the rules of the Zhou family are also very many, and the slightest negligence will be punished very severely, and the Zhou family will never hold a banquet in the villa of the family, which is full of a mysterious atmosphere, which makes people reverie.

Nan Zhen walked in the door and looked around.

The all-Chinese design, like the mansions of the ancient princes and nobles, is extremely luxurious, even the wood of the stairs is particularly precious, and the servants here are all well-behaved, even the angle of bowing their heads is a standard. On the second floor, the long corridor is divided into left and right sides, although they all look the same, but the things in the corridor are really different, and Nan Chen doesn't have to think about it, he knows that the old man's bedroom is on the right side.

Sure enough.

Uncle Guan stretched out his hand again and said to the corridor on the right: "Miss Nan, please come here." ”

Nan Zhen walked to the right.

Uncle Guan led her to a mahogany door and knocked lightly on the door three times.

"Knock, knock, knock. ”

"Come in. ”

Uncle Guan opened the door and stretched out his hand inside again.

Nan Chen smiled and nodded to him, then walked in the door, and looked at the antique room again, and there was a strong smell of tea in the room. The old man sat at the tea table, with that kind smile on his face, very kind, but very hypocritical.

Nan Chen stood in front of him and bowed his head thoughtfully.

"Grandpa Zhou, good afternoon. ”

"Nan Girl is here, sit down quickly. The old man patted the chair beside him.

"No, I'll just stand. "Nan Chen is polite.

"Well, sit down and try my tea. ”

"The old man's tea must be the best, just by smelling it. ”

"You girl's mouth is sweet. ”

Nan Chen smiled happily and said, "Grandpa Zhou, I came today because I want to ask you. ”

"Please?" the old man already knew that it was no good for her to come, but he also wanted to see what she wanted to do.

"That's right. Nan Chen looked coquettish: "Didn't I say it last night, I like your fifth grandson, Zhou Muchen, I really like him, I told my parents about it again this morning, they are very happy, and they agree to our marriage, so I came to you today." ”

"Did your parents agree?" the old man was a little surprised.

"Yes, they always think I'm naughty, and they always say that I can't get married, but I didn't expect that I would have a marriage partner so soon, and they were all happy for me. ”

The old man didn't believe her nonsense. All he wanted to know was what she was doing it for.

"You just said that you have something to ask me, what is the matter?"

Nan Chen lowered his head embarrassedly, twisted and pinched it, and then said: "That's the case, as soon as I mentioned marriage to my parents, they talked about Mu Chen's parents, I know that the second uncle has left many years ago, but the second aunt is still there, so my parents really want to meet the second aunt and want to talk to her about our marriage." ”

The old man's kind face became more and more cold, and his eyebrows began to tremble slightly.

It turns out that the purpose of this girl is that.

Does she want to help Zhou Muchen?

Is it true that she said last night to repay her kindness?

The old man's anger burned slowly in his heart, and his face became more and more tense. He didn't want this girl to succeed, and he didn't want to let go of that, so he could only make excuses: "Your second aunt's health has always been bad, and she has never gone out at home for so many years, although I also want both of your parents to meet, but ......"

"It doesn't matter. ”

Nan Zhen didn't let him finish his words, and deliberately interrupted him: "I can ask the best doctor to help take care of me, you know about my father's serious illness and hospitalization in the last few days, right? However, my friend introduced me to a doctor, just returned from studying abroad, very powerful, my dad transferred to the hospital on the first day, his spirit improved, and then he was treated for three days, and he was discharged from the hospital in good health, and now his body is tough. It just so happened that the doctor was invited by my father to his house today, and I can take my second aunt to let him see it, and maybe he will be cured. ”

The old man really admired her eloquent little mouth, secretly sarcastic him, and at the same time made him speechless.

Nan Yan suddenly sat down beside him, holding his hand like a granddaughter.

"Grandpa Zhou, just promise me, I'm about to become your granddaughter-in-law, you said some time ago that you will definitely love me when I enter your door, you can't talk and not talk. ”

The smile on the corner of the old man's mouth was particularly ugly.

The smile on Nan Chen's face was very pleasant.

"Grandpa Zhou, if you don't speak, I'll just say yes. ”

"You kid, how can you say that the wind is rain, and you don't say hello in advance, even if I want to promise you, your second aunt will not be able to leave today. ”

"Why?" Nan asked.

"She was sick and the doctor said she needed to rest and couldn't move. ”

"It's so serious? Nan Yan immediately became nervous: "She is my future mother-in-law, I can't let her get sick, I'll go and call the doctor over now, and treat her here." With that, she got up and was about to leave.

"You wait. ”

Nan Yu stopped his feet.

The old man said nervously: "Don't go, she is asleep now, you just let her rest, and I will let you take her to meet your parents tomorrow." ”

"No, illness is a big deal, and you can't delay it for a moment. Nan Chen said and hurried to leave.

"You stop. The old man's voice suddenly became cold.

Nan Chen showed a surprised expression and looked at him puzzled: "Grandpa Zhou, why do you always stop me? Isn't it a good thing for me to invite a doctor to see my second aunt? Isn't it a good thing for me to invite my second aunt to my house to talk about my marriage to Mu Chen? Why are you so unwilling? Is it ...... You don't want me to cure my second aunt?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" the old man's anger could no longer be hidden.

Nan Chen frowned: "I don't mean that, it's just that there are always some rumors outside, saying that you hate Zhou Muchen and his mother, and you will always embarrass them, so that their mother and son don't have a good day, and there are some more ugly words, I can't say it." Grandpa Zhou, I just don't want those people to misunderstand you, so I specially came to invite the second aunt this time, I just want people outside to know that the second aunt has always lived in the Zhou family very well, Grandpa Zhou, you treat the second aunt like your own daughter, it's not what they say, but you ......" She just wanted to say and stopped.

The old man's whole face turned green.

It seems that he underestimated this girl's film.

She is not only sharp-tongued, but also very scheming. According to what she said, if he doesn't agree, if that cheap woman can't go to the Nan family today, there will be rumors right away that he treats their mother and son harshly, and doesn't even let him come forward to talk about marriage.

Anger shone through the cloudy eyes.

Nan Yan met his eyes, and the corners of his mouth were triumphantly outlined.

The old man couldn't think of a way for a while, so he could only promise stubbornly: "Okay, you go, let Uncle Guan take you there." ”

"I know that Grandpa Zhou, you are the kindest and kindest grandfather in the world. Nan Chen's face immediately burst into laughter, and his steps became strained, but as soon as he reached the door, he stopped again, this time by himself.

She turned her head to look at the old man's iron-blue face.

The old man couldn't contain his anger anymore.

Nan Chen was very attentive: "By the way, what about Mu Chen, why didn't I see him when I came in." ”

"He went to the company early in the morning. The old man replied.

"No way, I called him when I came and he said he was waiting for me at home. It's really strange, can this person still disappear out of thin air in the Zhou family?"

The old man's cloudy eyes were bloodshot.

"Oh, I see. Nan Chen exaggerated and pretended to be suddenly enlightened: "Grandpa Zhou, you are naughty, you know that I like to play tricks on people, so you came to tease me." I won't fall for you, I'll take my second aunt to Mu Chen's room in a while. I'm leaving, I'll come back to visit you another day. ”

This time she was really gone.

The moment the door closed, the old man picked up the teacup and slammed it on the ground.

Outside the door.

Nan Zhen heard the movement in the house, not to mention how happy he was.

"Uncle Guan, please lead the way. She said.

"Yes. Miss Nan, please come with me. ”

Nan Chen followed him to the other side of the stairs, and to the deepest bedroom, outside which stood two tall and burly men.

Nan Chen glanced at them.

Uncle Guan stood in front of the door, knocked on the door, and then took out the key and opened the door.

Nan Zhen walked into the room.

This room is really different from the old man's.

Simple furniture, simple furnishings, except for being clean, it is not at all like the room where the second lady of the Zhou family lives, and the second lady is huddled in the bed at this time, her hair is scattered, and she looks frightened, especially when Uncle Guan approaches, she is even more nervous, and her whole body is trembling with nervousness.

Nan Chen looked at her half-exposed face, she was a very beautiful person.

"Second lady, this Miss Nan. Uncle Guan introduced.

Nan Chen stood beside the bed and called out with a smile: "Hello second aunt, my name is Nan Chen, and I am Nan Siyun's daughter. ”

"What are you going to do?" the second lady asked in alarm.

"I'm here to pick you up at my house. Nan Zhi said.

"What? Pick me up? What do you want to do? Go away, stay away from me, don't come near me, go away, go away......"

Nan could tell that there was something wrong with her mental condition.

She thought about it for a while, and didn't rush to get close to her, but said softly and gently: "Second aunt, do you want to see Zhou Muchen." ”

"Xiao Chen?" the second lady's mood stabilized slightly.

"Yes, it's your son Xiaochen. Nan Zhi responded.

"Xiaochen, where is he? I want to see him, I want to see my son. The second lady choked up as she spoke.

"I'm here to pick you up from him. ”

"Really?" the second lady finally raised her head and looked at her face.

Nan Chen nodded to her: "Really, second aunt, come with me, I will definitely let you see him, today is his birthday, let's celebrate his birthday together, okay?"

"Birthday? Today is Xiao Chen's birthday. ”

"That's right. ”

The second lady seemed to have thought of something good, and smiled stupidly at the corner of her mouth: "I want to celebrate Xiaochen's birthday." ”

"That's right, let's celebrate his birthday together, let's go celebrate his birthday now, okay?" Nan Chen held out his hand to her.

The second lady looked at her hand, looked at her face, her hand stretched out slowly, her fingers lightly touched her palm, but she was afraid to withdraw slightly, and Nan Chen kept spreading her palm like that, and kept smiling gently at her, it was her smile that made the nervous second lady let down her guard and put her hand on her hand.

Nan Chen grabbed her hand: "Let's go." ”

The second lady followed her strength, little by little, moved from the bed to the bedside, and stood barefoot on the floor.

Nan Zhen saw the shoes next to the bed.

"Wait a minute. ”

She crouched at her feet, took her shoes, and put them on for the second lady.

Uncle Guan stood aside and looked at her, with a look of surprise on his face.

The eldest lady of the dignified Nan family, the baby daughter who was spoiled by Nan Siyun, didn't have a frame at all, so carefully put on shoes for a lowly woman, not only wearing shoes, she also took the second lady to the wardrobe, picked out a dress to help her change in, and also took the second lady in front of the dressing table, combing her a simple bun. After she dressed up the second lady so considerately, she took her hand and walked out of the door that had been locked all year round.

The second lady was very unaccustomed to the outside, and unconsciously hid behind her, lowering her head and not daring to look at anyone.

Nan Chen pulled her to his side and hugged her arm affectionately: "Don't be afraid, with me, I will protect you." ”

The second lady looked at it, and smiled faintly at the corner of her mouth.

Nan Chen looked at Uncle Guan again.

"Uncle Guan, take us to the fifth young master's room, the old man agreed with me to find him. ”

"Yes. Uncle Guan led the way again.

Twenty minutes ago.

Zhou Muchen was not in his room, but in the ancestral hall of the Zhou family, and knelt on his knees in front of the tablet of the Zhou family, his weak face was pale, his eyes were dilated, and he seemed to faint in the next second.

Suddenly.

Someone opened the door and walked up to him.

"Fifth Young Master, the old man commanded that you should go back to the room immediately now and change into decent clothes. ”

Is the old man willing to let him go?

Did Zeyin go to intercede?

Zhou Muchen tried hard to stand up, but his legs were numb.

The servant immediately went to help him, supported his body and carried him back to his room, and then helped him wash up briefly and change his clothes.

Zhou Muchen sat on the sofa and always felt that something was wrong.

If the old man forgave him, why did he let him wash and change his clothes? And in such a hurry?

This is so unconscionable.

Just when he couldn't figure it out at all, there was a knock on the door, and Uncle Guan's voice came from outside the door.

"Knock, knock, knock. ”

"Fifth Young Master, Miss Nan has come to see you. ”

Nanchen?

Zhou Muchen looked up at the door.

The door was opened, Nan Chen's petite body appeared in his eyes, and her beautiful face also appeared in his eyes, but when he saw the woman next to her, his eyes, his expression, his face showed an unbelievable look, the whole person was shocked, completely disbelieving that he would actually see his mother.

Nan Chen looked at his surprised face and hurriedly walked in with the second lady.

"How? ”

Zhou Muchen couldn't hear her voice at all, he stood up excitedly, walked two steps with his feet a little weak, looked at his mother, tears welled up in his eyes, and his mouth was a little out of order: "Mom......"

The second lady looked at him tremblingly.

"You...... Who are you?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Muchen's heart seemed to be crushed.

Nan Chen was also startled, and hurriedly said: "He's your son, don't you know him?"

"Xiao Chen?"

The second lady looked at him carefully, and suddenly seemed to recognize him again, and hurriedly grabbed his hand excitedly: "Xiao Chen." ”

"Mom, you know me. ”

"My child, my son. The second lady's tears of happiness flowed out at once, and she hugged him excitedly.

Zhou Muchen felt her gentle hug, smiling at the corners of his mouth, and his eyes were wet.

Nan Chen looked at them and was unconsciously moved.

But now is not the time to be happy here, and it will be bad if the old man suddenly has an idea, thinks of some way to deal with it, and suddenly repents. Gotta get out of here.

"Okay, you two don't rush to be happy, let's go downstairs first, get out of here first. ”

"Leave here?" Zhou Muchen was puzzled again.

"Come with me first, and I'll tell you later. ”

Zhou Muchen dreamed of taking his mother out of this luxurious cage, he always felt that this was his extravagant hope, it was impossible, but he didn't expect that she would do it with such a weak and petite person. And she really did.

"Let's go. Nanchen became more and more anxious.

"Good. ”

Zhou Muchen grabbed the arm of the second lady, and the three of them left in a hurry.

Master bedroom on the second floor.

The old man watched them walk out of the door of Zhou's house and watched them get into the car, and the anger on his face became more and more serious.

Although this girl's little conspiracy succeeded, but this is only temporary, their mother and son still have to come back here, or under his control, and when they come back, he will sprinkle all his anger on their mother and son, let them know that even if the doors of the Zhou family are open, they can't escape, they dare not escape.

Same second floor.

Zhou Zeyin also stood in front of the window and watched the scene of their departure.

But his eyes were always on Nan Chen.

He waited for ten years, he planned for so long, but the last person standing by her side was not Zhou Muchen.

Do they really have nothing?

They really won't happen anything?

He always felt ...... Nan Chen's heart was shifting to Zhou Muchen.
