Volume 1 Dragon Swims in Shallow Water Chapter 37 The Jiang Family's Promise
Zhou Yang looked at Jiang Tianming a little helplessly, but he didn't expect such a farce to appear after careful preparation.
The old man is very upright, and he did not accept this gift because of Zhou Yang's young and shallow qualifications and relationship with Jiang Tianming, in his opinion, Zhou Yang may not realize the value of this magic weapon at all, but he can't follow the trend with his conscience because of this, so he will directly refuse and break the value of it.
Jiang Tianming is more distressed than anyone else now, he can fully understand what his grandfather means, just now Zhou Yang has confirmed one of the effects of this magic weapon, if all the effects are as Zhou Yang said, then who doesn't want it? This is simply tailor-made for his grandfather, after all, the old man is already 100 years old, no one knows how long he can enjoy happiness in the future, with this magic weapon, it is equivalent to giving the old man an extra guarantee of longevity, and it is also a strong insurance for the Jiang family.
If you put it outside, even if you are bankrupt, I don't know how many people are rushing to ask for it, no matter how important your money and connections are, it is less than one ten-thousandth of your life, no wonder the old man said that he couldn't stand it.
But since the old man has spoken, it is no longer Jiang Tianming who can call the shots at will, and he is very moved by his brother's heart.
"Xiaoyang, our Jiang family understands this love, grandpa is right, your gift is too expensive, we can't afford it. Jiang Tianming could only shake his head helplessly, and reluctantly refused Zhou Yang's heavy gift for his grandfather.
Suddenly, Jiang Tianming said again, "Also, we will keep this magic weapon absolutely secret, all of us from the Jiang family are present, I promise you that we will not reveal a single thing!" After speaking, his eyes looked at all the peers present, and the meaning was not difficult to understand.
The old man smiled with satisfaction, and agreed with Jiang Tianming's approach, "Xiao Zhou Doll, don't worry, old man, I will keep it secret for you." Even the old man opened his mouth to assure that the juniors would dare to have other ideas.
Zhou Yang looked at the old man and then at Jiang Tianming thoughtfully, and seemed to understand the key, he was confident that no one would be able to resist such a magic weapon, if he didn't have the opportunity to cultivate, he couldn't resist, at least, from the fiery eyes of several sons and daughters standing behind the old man, he saw the desire to possess.
For a long time, Zhou Yang has always believed that between emotions, whether it is family love or friendship, mutual payment is not to ask for anything in return, but Jiang Tianming's words just now made him feel that he had ignored the essence of human affection, and he always thought in his heart that one day he would leave here and leave this world.
But it is precisely because of this kind of thinking that Zhou Yang always does stupid things that are not equal to pay and return.
He doesn't care and is used to it, but the Jiang family doesn't think so, because once he accepts this heavy gift, it means that he owes Zhou Yang this heavy affection, what to pay back? How to pay it back? The old man can't use the interests of the entire family to fill it because of his own selfish interests.
Jiang Tianming understands this truth, and all the Jiang family members also understand, only Zhou Yang has only vaguely understood the key until now.
Everyone couldn't help but feel a little sorry, if you don't want such a good thing, only the old man has the courage, and even if he didn't accept the heavy gift, Zhou Yang's actions also left an excellent impression on the Jiang family, and it was even more of a limelight for Jiang Tianming.
However, no matter how unconvinced, everyone asked themselves, if they have such a heavy treasure, are they willing to take the initiative to take it out to congratulate the old man on his birthday?
It is not difficult to see the appreciation for Zhou Yang from the old man's eyes, and when everyone thought that Zhou Yang would put away the gift and leave politely, Zhou Yang insisted on holding the jade piece and slowly walked towards the old man.
"Grandpa Jiang, you are Brother Jiang's relative, that is, my relative. If Zhou Yang said this at the beginning, it would inevitably be suspected of climbing high, which made people look down on him, but now everyone doesn't think like this.
Zhou Yang said softly as he walked, "I am an orphan, I enjoyed family affection for a few years when I was a child, and after the death of my adoptive parents, I only experienced loneliness and indifference, everyone looked down on me, excluded me, and bullied me. As he spoke, the corners of Zhou Yang's mouth seemed to be smiling, but his expression was distressing.
Everyone held their breath and waited for his next step.
"Later, when I met Brother Jiang, he has always taken care of me, let me feel the warmth of the world, many things I don't understand and don't care, Brother Jiang will help me remind me, although he looked at these little things are not worth mentioning, but let me understand a lot of the truth of walking in the world, I think he is a big brother, a brother, what is a brother, except for money and everything, only brotherhood. At this time, Zhou Yang had already walked in front of the old man and was personally putting the jade pieces on for the old man.
After all, the old man is old, his body is a little rickety, and he is a little shorter than Zhou Yang, no one stopped Zhou Yang's movements, and they are all carefully recalling Zhou Yang's words.
"Now I have my chances, with this ability, you think this is a treasure, but in my eyes this is just a gratitude to my brother and eldest brother. After saying this, Zhou Yang has also helped the old man put on the jade pieces.
After the jade piece was put on, the old man instantly felt a warmth from the sun, and even the pain of the gunshot wound that occurred on a cloudy day was faintly subsiding, and the old man's cloudy eyes kept flashing shock and shock, with the conditions of his Jiang family, what kind of maintenance supplements are not, but no matter how good the recuperation is, it is not as comfortable as this moment, it seems that even if it is overestimated repeatedly, it is still underestimated this magic weapon.
Everyone was still immersed in what Zhou Yang said, and no one thought that Zhou Yang's last sentence was equivalent to giving up the Jiang family's return, he was repaying the favor, but this kindness was too precious.
Those people who originally looked down on Zhou Yang before suddenly felt embarrassed, no one could do this calmness without asking for anything in return, and even Jiang Lixing, who had always been dissatisfied with Jiang Tianming, was shouting in his heart that he was not wronged to lose.
Unconsciously, Jiang Tianming felt that his eyes were a little moist, he never thought about the little things he did for Zhou Yang, yes, in his opinion, those were indeed small things, but he made himself have such a brother who values righteousness, although Zhou Yang's words are not much, but this time it brought such a great favor to the family.
No one can be sure what kind of impact the old man will have on the Jiang family if he lives a few more years.
It wasn't until many years later that Zhou Yang knew that because of this magic weapon, he would directly let his brother sit firmly in the position of the head of the Jiang family!
Compared with the bustle of the outer courtyard, the inner courtyard is very quiet at the moment, the old man felt the magic brought by the jade piece, and looked at Zhou Yang with emotion, the other party's words couldn't help but make him think of a lot of old brothers, they were the same as Zhou Yang, there was no mutual interest, no contradictions, only the love between brothers, no one knew whether they could survive the next war.
Hey, in the blink of an eye, for decades, how long has it been since I haven't been able to go to their grave to put incense, the old man looked at Zhou Yang more and more kindly, the older generation of soldiers is the most emotional, and they also appreciate the most emotional people, "Little Zhou Doll, Tianming has a brother like you, the old man is relieved, my Jiang family can't afford to return your heavy gifts, but you remember a sentence, from now on, the Jiang family is also your home!"
The old man made a final decision, and spit out this sentence word by word very clearly, Zhou Yang did not ask for anything in return, but he couldn't help but give, no matter from which point of view, Zhou Yang was also worthy of him! He knew very well the importance of his old bones to the Jiang family, as long as he was alive for one day, the status of the Jiang family would be unshakable, as long as he was in one day, the Jiang family would have one more day of time to develop!
Moreover, it can be seen from Zhou Yang's words and deeds that the other party is a person who is strict and upright, and knows how to repay kindness, to put it bluntly, with such a heavy treasure, the other party can get greater benefits, but it is only used to repay his brother's kindness, if such a person is not at ease, then who else is worthy of this?
The audience was shocked that the old man actually gave such a promise, but no matter who it was, no matter what he thought in his heart, he didn't dare to question and refute it in public.
Even Jiang Tianming didn't seem to dare his ears, he had grown so big, it was the first time he had heard his grandfather make such a promise to people!
There were some people who were moved by Zhou Yang's words before, but now they feel sour in their hearts.
Everyone thought that Zhou Yang had fallen on the big tree of the Jiang family, but they didn't know that after a few years, the Jiang family would get more!
