Chapter 22 Tang Ruan, the pick-up man
Since he found Tang Ruan, Sun Yi'an has been begging for nothing, saying that he is helpless and careless, and the only motivation to live is to guard Tang Ruan for Uncle Tang, and he has to stay here to be Tang Ruan's housekeeper, what makes Mu Qichen curious is that Tang Ruan actually followed him.
Mu Qichen found an opportunity to ask Tang Ruan: "Are you sure that Sun Yi'an can be trusted?"
Tang Ruan didn't even think about it: "Don't worry, you can definitely trust it." ”
Tang Ruan seemed to be very arrogant, but in fact, she was delicate, and her determined tone made Mu Qichen a little curious.
Tang Ruan blinked confidently: "Uncle, I know it in my heart, don't say that he can trust it, even if he can't believe it, he can't make waves in my hands." ”
She became serious: "Sun Yi'an graduated from the cultural relics appraisal major, and some aspects are much stronger than my half-ass, he is a person with ideas, and my father left these shops and I am not easy to take care of alone, he happens to be a candidate." ”
"I can find someone more professional to help you. Mu Qichen was a little unhappy in his heart.
Tang Ruan shook his head: "I have already put out my words when I was in Fugui Villa, and now that all parties are ready to act, the four major families will definitely start to investigate your details." She sighed softly, "To be honest, I don't want you to be too involved in these things. ”
It turned out that he was worried about himself, Mu Qichen had a little more smile on his face, and said lightly: "The Mu family has been standing in the mall for longer than these four combined, no matter how long their hands and feet are, they have to weigh it, besides, I'm not just here to help you, to unlock my grandfather's secret, I still have to advance and retreat with you, don't I?"
Tang Ruan hesitated for a few seconds.
Mu Qichen continued: "I came today to tell you that I checked, before my grandfather took over these shops, the owner of these shops was a woman named Ge Yuqing. ”
"What?" Tang Ruan's eyes widened: "Ge Yuqing?"
"Hmm. Mu Qichen said: "They handled it very cleanly, and it is already my limit to be able to find this name." ”
Tang Ruan's face was serious: "Ge Yuqing is my grandmother's name. ”
Mu Qichen was also a little surprised.
According to the information they have now, after Tang Ming's death, the youngest son Tang Zizhan disappeared mysteriously, and the Tang family's industry also fell apart, all of which were absorbed by the four major families.
It's simply impossible.
He took a deep breath and stared at Tang Ruan seriously: "Tang Ruan, I think my grandfather was involved in your family a long time ago. ”
Tang Ruan was silent for a long time, and exhaled, "Yes, if it weren't for the strength of the Mu family, how could these shops not be detected by those people, and my father's traces would have been discovered earlier." ”
Tang Ruan seemed to have a fire floating in her heart, she was sad, but she was a little faintly excited.
Eighteen years later, one clue after another began to jump out to guide her forward, and she only now realized that these clues were left for her by her fathers.
"It occurred to me that my grandfather and father had woven a big net, and they wanted me to collect it. She said.
Mu Qichen admired: "They not only want you to finish, but also leave you a strong backer, this courtyard, those antique shops, they are all paved for you to pave the way, they think very clearly, if you are not willing to get involved in those disputes, these shops, enough for you to live comfortably for a lifetime." ”
How could she not be involved in these disputes, the injustice on the Tang family's head and the mysterious death of her father made her unable not to get involved in these disputes, she Tang Ruan, never thought of living quietly.
Tang Ruan was silent, but his clenched fists and reddish eyes had already said everything.
"Okay, eat a candy, I've got everything anyway. Mu Qichen looked a little distressed when he saw her, and took out a lollipop from his pocket.
Tang Ruan tilted his head: "Where did you come from?"
Mu Qichen just sneered and walked away by himself: "Don't care what you do so much, just carry it." ”
Tang Ruan looked at his back with strange eyes.
With Sun Yi'an's settlement of his home, Tang Ruan's courtyard suddenly became lively, according to Sun Yi'an's words, this is called Pengsheng Shengshi.
As soon as Tang Ruan raised his foot and was about to kick his ass, before his foot left the ground, the doorbell of the courtyard rang.
Tang Ruan glanced at Sun Yi'an lazily, and Sun Yi'an shouted very goodly: "Come on~"
Tang Ruan was funny and angry, sitting on a chair in the middle of the courtyard and souring him: "Look at the people in the city, people will ring the doorbell, which is like you, you will only pick up a sledgehammer to harass the neighbors." ”
Sun Yi'an bared his teeth to express his dissatisfaction and ran to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, a petite and pretty figure rushed in first, and at the same time, Bai Wanwan's voice came: "Tang Ruan, I miss you to death, can I live here tonight?"
"I had a warm welcome when I wanted to stay. ”
She was followed by Du Qingchuan and Gu Qinghui, and finally Mu Qichen.
What a strange combination.
Seeing Sun Yi'an, Du Qingchuan was also stunned.
Sun Yi'an smiled kindly, and explained to him: "Young Master Du, it was all a misunderstanding before, a misunderstanding, I am now the housekeeper of the Tang family's courtyard, and we will write off the previous things, and write them off." ”
Gu Qinghui still looked down on people, standing beside Du Qingchuan cold and arrogant. Tang Ruan smiled in his heart, it was boring to come to her place to find himself after such a grievance, it was really pitiful for Gu Qinghui.
Bai Wanwan was very curious about this place, looking here and there, at this time, her attention was attracted by the ginkgo tree in the center of the courtyard, and she circled the big tree several times, smacking her tongue again and again: "Tang Ruan, this tree has grown for many years, right?"
Although her grandfather Bai Dejing didn't look down on Tang Ruan inside and out, Bai Wanwan belonged to the kind of person who could see clearly at a glance, Tang Ruan was closer to her, and answered her question seriously: "It's been many years, and my grandfather's generation has it." ”
Tang Ruan stood up and looked at Du Qingchuan: "What kind of wind blew Young Master Du and Miss Gu over?"
Mu Qichen took two steps forward, familiar with his own home, and instructed Sun Yi'an: "Little Sun, go make a pot of tea." ”
Seeing Sun Yi'an's obedient appearance, Du Qingchuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"Didn't Grandpa say that he wanted us to have more contact with you. Du Qingchuan took a step forward and got a little closer to her: "There will be an antique appreciation and trading conference in a week, and the people who will go to the antique industry in City B will be the leading figures, grandpa means that you will also participate, and your identity will be officially disclosed at that time." ”
"Me?" Tang Ruan pointed to himself: "Reveal your identity?"
Du Qingchuan: "Well, after the identity is revealed, there are four major families to support you, and you will be able to act in the antique world in the future." ”
Tang Ruan subconsciously glanced at Mu Qichen.
When Du Qingchuan saw it, he squinted his eyes and looked at Mu Qichen.
Mu Qichen noticed it but didn't care, but said, "I came to you today because of this." ”
At this time, even Gu Qinghui looked over.
They had long heard of the pride of this business empire, but they had never heard of anything to do with the Mu family and the antique world over the years, but in just half a month, they were surprised to find that many antique shops had appeared out of thin air under Mu Qichen's private name.
At this time, Sun Yi'an made tea, Tang Ruan beckoned them to sit at the table under the ginkgo tree, Sun Yi'an was very good at being a person, and in an instant, he served fruit and melon seeds, so that Tang Ruan earned enough face.
Tang Ruan praised him with admiration on his face, and asked Mu Qichen: "What does this have to do with you?"
Mu Qichen smiled: "A few years ago, someone invited me to participate in this kind of activity, I was not interested in it, so I have never been there, and now you have more than a dozen shops on my hands, I just want to go and see, by the way, learn it." ”
Du Qingchuan and Gu Qinghui were taken aback, and Du Qingchuan couldn't help but ask, "Those shops, are they all yours?"
Tang Ruan smiled embarrassedly, and turned his head to complain to Mu Qichen: "Oh, tell you to be low-key, you have to say it at this time!"
Gu Qinghui said coldly: "No wonder I heard that the Mu family has recently added some antique shops out of thin air, it turns out that they are all for you." You also have the ability, and you caught up with the Mu family in just a few days. ”
Mu Qichen heard that her tone was not good, and immediately retorted: "This young lady said that she was laughing, I just kept it for Miss Tang." ”
Tang Ruan also reacted and said mockingly: "The predecessors planted trees and the later people enjoyed the shade, all of which were left by the fathers. I'm just a pick-up guy. Don't dare to be a sugar daddy canary, you can't afford to lose this person. ”
Gu Qingqi's teeth itched.
Du Qingchuan's mind turned several times, why is this Tang Ruan's father's property in the hands of the Mu family. Did Tang Ruan give it, or did Tang Ruan's grandfather and father have always had a relationship with the Mu family? Why haven't they found out what the Tang family has to do with the Mu family for so many years?
"Oh, yes. Tang Ruan beckoned and called Sun Yi'an: "Little grandson, come here." ”
Bai Wanwan leaned back when she heard this salutation, Sun Yi'an gritted her teeth and glared at Tang Ruan, and reluctantly moved over, while saying cruel words: "It's all said, get rid of that!"
Tang Ruan didn't care about him, grabbed his arm and said, "By the way, I would like to introduce to you, Sun Yi'an, who will be the honorary chief manager of our Tang family's shop in the future, and I will take care of him more when I see him on the road." ”
Sun Yi'an suddenly jumped up and said excitedly: "Me, me, is it, it's really me!hahaha~"
Bai Wanwan was also happy for him when she saw him jumping around like a wild horse.
Only Du Qingchuan and Gu Qinghui glanced at each other, and secretly wrote down Sun Yi'an's name.
