The house was large and very beautiful, decorated entirely in the English style, and the furniture looked full of the intricate patterns and dazzling extravagance of the European court.

We drank tea and waited for nearly ten minutes before we finally met Mr. Xu Congyu. He wore a white suit and waistcoat, a white shirt and trousers, and of course white leather shoes.

"Hello, I didn't expect to meet so soon. What's the matter?"

He asked bluntly, this sense of distance made it a little difficult for me to speak, and pushed the fat man next to me, he was better at this kind of thing.

"Mr. Xu, we're in some trouble. Last time you said we could come to you if we were in trouble, so we came here. ”

The fat man made the topic clear, and Mr. Xu nodded, and did not interject to signal us to continue.

"Last time you helped us kill that youkai, we were ready to make a move, but one of the buyers who failed in the bid seemed to be very unhappy, and I am afraid it will be against us. So I hope you can use the relationship to help us settle the day. ”

The fat man said these words politely and tactfully.

Mr. Xu took out a cigarette from the copper cigarette case, lit it and said after a while, "Tell me, who is the buyer who I am afraid will be unfavorable to you?"

At this time, I spoke: "The Yuyang Ling Family, that is, the famous Three Mountains Mountain Lord on the Dao. Of course, it doesn't mean that they will be bad for us, but there are many people in the circle who say that it is possible, so we are more worried, and if you can help, we will definitely remember this kindness. ”

It's not good to ask for someone, but if you can keep 100,000 yuan for someone once, then I'm definitely willing, don't say that I have no principles and no bottom line, the bottom line of principles is done by rich people these days.

"Oh, Lingyan. ”

Obviously, Mr. Xu knew about the Lord of the Three Mountains and the Ling family.

"I don't know the Ling family well, and I haven't had much business contact in the past. But I should be able to help you talk, after all, business conflicts are still easy to settle. ”

Hearing this, I immediately smiled, and sure enough, I was right, it seems that this time 100,000 yuan was saved!

"But ......" I didn't expect that there was an extra twist in Mr. Xu's words at this time, "I have rules for helping people, and I need to repay you for helping." ”

Speaking of still asking for money, I felt a little lost and said, "Then how much money do you need?"

"No, no, you're mistaken, I don't want money. I don't charge money for helping, but I want favors. I've done you a favor, but you owe me a favor, and you can't excuse yourself when I want you to pay it back. It's my rule. ”

This rule is interesting, besides, we are all small characters in the rivers and lakes, where can they use us as masters? So I immediately nodded and said, "You help us, and we are obligated to do what we want to do later." We still understand these rules!"

Hearing this, Mr. Xu smiled and said, "Then it's a matter of saying, you go back first, if the Ling family does something to you, I will naturally show up to help." The rivers and lakes are nothing more than this little thing, money, love, and power. I don't lack money or power, I just want favors. ”

People pursue different things, I can't tell what Mr. Xu is from, and the old man hasn't mentioned it, but looking at where he lives, listening to what he says, and looking at his methods, you know that he is not an extraordinary person.

After leaving Mr. Xu's mansion, the mood suddenly relaxed a lot. With a big backer behind him, who are you afraid of in the future?

After returning to the fat man's house, the old man smoked a cigarette and said, "Xiaoshan, how long have you not been home?"

I was stunned, I had been busy for more than a month, and I didn't expect to go back to see my father for such a long time.

"Oh, I forgot, don't leave me food today, fat man, I'll go back to see my dad and come back tomorrow." By the way, I'll bring a thousand dollars back, hehe, give my dad some sweetness. ”

Being a child really shouldn't be unfilial, I'm a model of a child who has no interest, in the past 20 years, I have been living by my father, and I have been gnawing old after graduation, and I haven't given money to the family, this time I dragged a thousand yuan home, thinking that my father can be proud of me, and I can't help but feel a little beautiful.

When I got to the door, I was surprised to see some neighbors around, and I didn't know what I was looking at. When I walked up and took a look, it turned out that there was a white sedan parked in front of the building of my house, and when I looked at the sign, my obedient was still a BMW! At that time, BMW was not as visible all over the streets as it is now, and in the era when Cadillac was an absolutely high-end car, a BMW could be imagined how valuable it was.

"Whose relatives are so rich?"

Anyway, there is no way there is such a rich person in our public house, so I opened my mouth to ask.

"Why did you just come back? Your mother has come home!"

Uncle Li, the next-door neighbor, suddenly turned his head to me and said, this sentence fell into my ears and made my whole brain short-circuit.

My mother is back......

My mother was gone when I was very young, and when I said walking, I was really walking instead of dying. My parents divorced when I was five years old, and I don't remember the specific reason, but when I grew up, I heard from the neighbors that my mother always thought that my father was not capable and couldn't make a lot of money. In the end, she really left, and she didn't want me, because the rich businessman said that he couldn't take the child. Since then, I have received living expenses from my mother every month, but she has never appeared again.

Over the years, my father and I have always been dependent on each other, and the memories before the age of five have long faded, and sometimes when I look at their past photos, I will remember what my mother used to look like. And when I grew up, I didn't hate her too much, I was originally a very casual person, if she chose a better life, then chase it.

I always thought that if she was gone, she would never disturb my life and my father's life again. I didn't resent her because I had forgotten that she existed.

But now, out of the blue, she's barged in and returned to my life.

I felt a little dizzy, squeezed through the crowd and walked into the house, opened the door with the key, and saw several people sitting in the living room, my father smoking a cigarette, and a man and a woman sitting opposite.

The man was dressed in a black suit, with a big back, a little old, probably about the same age as my father, but he was very well-dressed, with a ruby ring on his hand and a mustache.

And the woman, she is my mother, her name is Wan Guihong, she already has white hair but is well maintained, and she looks very similar to the vicissitudes of life in the photos except for the extra eyes in the eyes. She is indeed a beautiful woman, not like a fairy, but she is as beautiful as some of the stars I have seen.

"Dad, I'm back. ”

I opened my mouth to speak, the voice alarmed the three people, my father looked at me, nodded and said, "Your mother and this Uncle Jiang Shan come to talk, you put down the salute first, wash your face." ”

I nodded, walked to my room, my mother saw that my eyes were full of excitement, and she stood up to talk to me but I ignored her. When I walked into my room and closed the door immediately, I put my salute on the floor and took a deep breath with my back against the door! I thought that I would not react much even if I saw my mother again, but I was wrong, and the constant cutting of blood made me feel very excited when I saw my mother who had been separated for many years.

That's my mother, the one who gave birth to me in October, who hadn't come to see me for so many years, and now that I see it again, my palms are sweating nervously. After putting down the salute, he walked out and sat down beside his father steadfastly.

Looking at her, I wanted to open my mouth to call Mom, but I still couldn't say it. She looked at me with tears in her eyes and whispered, "Shan'er, I'm my mother." ”

His heart twitched violently like a tingling pain, and he smiled reluctantly and said, "Hello, I don't know why you came to my house?"

She looked a little disappointed, restrained her excited expression, and said: "That's right, my husband died a few years ago, and he has no children and no heirs, so the inheritance is left to me. This time, Lawyer Jiang and I came to see you because we wanted to take Shan'er with us and hope that he would go to Hong Kong with me to settle down. The environment there is more suitable for him, and I can make Shan'er live a life of a superior person, far happier than here. ”
