Chapter 296: The Qiao family's undercurrent is surging
It's just an ordinary orchid. ”
Uncle Qin still behaved like Gujing, lowered his head, and pruned another shrub, "I just placed it there casually." ”
"Well, this pot of orchids is really ordinary. ”
Yang Chen nodded and said, "There are at least 30,000 years of spiritual energy nourishment, and the one inch of rhizome below is enough to be worth the effect of a thousand-year-old wild ginseng."
And such an orchid, where it grows, must be a dangerous place that is inaccessible, I think when Old Man Qin takes this pot of orchids, he must be very casual. ”
If this pot of orchids only looks from the outside, it is indeed a pot of ordinary orchids, with very popular varieties, and some places have public green belts, and even large areas are planted.
However, Yang Chen could feel that there were faint spiritual energy fluctuations on the leaves of this pot of orchids.
Such an orchid, nourished by using aura, is a fairy in itself. If you pick a small inch of leaf vein, its effect is by no means under a whole thousand-year-old wild ginseng.
"Old man, junior Yang Chen, is just curious, unintentionally offended, and disturbed. ”
Yang Chen arched his hand at Uncle Qin, and then prepared to turn around and leave.
Just now, Qiao Zixuan said the origin of the pot of orchids. Yang Chen knew that this so-called "Grandpa Qin" must be an extraordinary person.
After some temptation just now, this person is indeed a hidden master.
It's just that Yang Chen didn't feel the slightest violent aura on him, but a calm and peaceful, slowly flowing calm aura.
Such a person's heart has long been as mellow as flowing water, presumably after experiencing strong winds and waves. Seeing through life and life and death, he finally chose to settle down and hide in the city.
It's just a hermit, and he doesn't feel malice, so Yang Chen is not very good at continuing to disturb such a person.
"There is a sentence that I want to give you. Old Man Qin suddenly spoke.
"Oh, Old Man Qin, but that's what he said, the juniors listened to him. ”
Regardless of whether the other party's cultivation is on him or not, but in this time and space, he is an elder after all, and Yang Chen has always been polite and courteous to his elders.
Uncle Qin still turned his back to Yang Chen, and said in his calm tone, "I don't care who you are, I hope you are just a friend of Zixuan."
Although I have no intention of killing in this life, it doesn't mean that I have let go of everything, if you are just a friend of Zixuan's girl, you can go to eat now, if not, please leave now. ”
Yang Chen smiled and didn't say anything, but strode towards the main hall of Qiao's villa.
"Brother Yang, I'm about to call you, it's time to eat, hurry up and sit down!"
As soon as she walked to the door, Qiao Zixuan greeted her warmly, took Yang Chen's arm and walked to the restaurant, and then took the initiative to let Yang Chen sit next to her.
"Brother Yang, it's my birthday today, you must have a few more drinks with me. ”
Qiao Zixuan is also very happy today, she hasn't been so relaxed for a long time, working overtime day and night, and taking advantage of today's birthday, she barely gave herself a day off.
"Haha, okay, no problem. ”
Yang Chen behaved down-and-out, picked up the wine glass, and touched a few elders one by one, not humble or arrogant, but polite and courteous.
The entire Qiao family has been secretly observing this young man, trying to find flaws in the other party.
But they were soon disappointed, for they were surprised to find that the young man's calm temperament, and natural aura, as well as the extraordinary self-confidence in his gestures, and even some contempt for the common people, were simply flawless.
Even if it's the world's top actor, I'm afraid he can't do this.
However, he is just an ordinary young man, how can he have such a bearing?
"Xiao Yang, this piece of cod was specially brought back from Australia by a friend, you can taste it. ”
Song Xuemei smiled and put the fast cod in Yang Chen's bowl, and said with a casual smile, "Xiao Yang, Xuanxuan's birthday banquet today is a family banquet, and they are all from your own family. Only one friend of yours was invited.
I can see that the relationship between the two of you is very good, and I haven't heard Xuanxuan talk about you before, how did you meet. ”
Song Xuemei's words were very natural, that is, they were short in ordinary families, but they asked the key to the question, and everyone pricked up their ears.
Although she does not interfere in the affairs of the Qiao family, she has always played the role of a good wife and mother, but she is not stupid, she knows when to do what kind of things, it is obvious that these questions are exactly what the Qiao family is very eager to know, and it is only appropriate for her to ask.
"Thank you, Auntie. ”
Yang Chen reached over to catch the cod, and smiled politely, "Zixuan and I met at a banquet, and we talked to her better, so she has always treated me as a brother, and I also treat her as my sister." ”
Where can Yang Chen see through the other party's thoughts, but these few words are the truth, he and Qiao Zixuan did meet at a banquet held by Xue Li, the eldest daughter of the Xue family, one of the four major families.
At that time, Xue Chen relied on his identity and background to marry Jiang Yan, Xue Li was Xue Chen's sister, in order to suppress Jiang Yan, she specially held that banquet, and invited many well-known young ladies and young masters in the circle to participate.
At that banquet, Xue Li was extremely humiliated to Jiang Yan. At that time, Qiao Zixuan was the only one who stood up to help Jiang Yan speak, and she was slapped by Xue Li.
At that time, the Xue family was one of the four major families in Tianhai, and the Qiao family was still a long way away from them, Xue Li did evil, everyone dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, only Qiao Zixuan dared to stand up, so Yang Chen was impressed by Qiao Zixuan.
Later, Yang Chen slaughtered the entire Xue family. completely wiped out the Xue family from Tianhai City, and the Xue family was left behind, killing them completely.
In the end, the two families where Ma Tao and Qiao Zixuan belonged were put in the position of the new four families.
Yang Chen has always had a good impression of Qiao Zixuan, but as he said, he really treats Qiao Zixuan as his sister-in-law, and he doesn't have the slightest evil thoughts. is just a simple appreciation for Qiao Zixuan.
"Xiao Yang, Xuanxuan grew up being spoiled by her family since she was a child, and she rarely has friends who are particularly close, so we are all very anxious for him.
Now that she finally has her own good friend, we are also happy for Xuanxuan, and thank you too, Xiao Yang. This cup of auntie salutes you. ”
Song Xuemei picked up her wine glass with a smile.
"Auntie is polite, I should respect you before reading it. Yang Chen was neither humble nor arrogant, and picked up the wine glass and touched it with the other party.
Song Xuemei's posture is elegant, and her gestures reveal an unhurried and unhurried attitude, which makes people feel very cordial and comfortable.
took a sip of red wine, smiled at Yang Chen and asked, "Xiao Yang, since you and Xuanxuan are friends." I'm Xuanxuan's elder, so I'm not polite to you.
In the future, if you are useful to us, just tell Xuanxuan, or just find me.
But if Xuanxuan has any difficulties, you have to take care of it, and you know recently that our Qiao family has a lot of things. Xuanxuan is also busy enough, I don't know what industry Xiao Yang is engaged in now, if it is feasible, we can cooperate with each other. ”
Song Xuemei gives the impression that she is a typical good wife and mother.
However, she is a woman of extraordinary wisdom and high emotional intelligence, and these words are not leaky. It's not etiquette, and he cleverly asked the question that Qiao's family wanted to know.
The front is all foreshadowing, and the question behind is the key, and there is only one meaning expressed, that is, to ask Yang Chen what he is doing.
This woman is not simple!
Yang Chen immediately gave Song Xuemei a definition in his heart, this emotional intelligence, this eloquence. It's a shame not to go into politics.
"Thank you Auntie for your kindness, but I may not be able to help with business matters. ”
Yang Chen smiled generously, "Because my main profession is a driver, specializing in running Didi, I may not be able to help you in business, but if you want to use a car." I think my driving skills are okay. ”
After saying this, the Qiao family's face did not change, but they became more and more confused in their hearts.
Running Didi?
They still couldn't believe that a running Didi would have such a bearing, and this person didn't seem to have the slightest sign of lying.
It feels like there are many mysteries in this person.
Moreover, in the conversation with Song Xuemei just now, she seemed neither humble nor arrogant, she was stable and atmospheric, the language logic was very clear, and it didn't seem like there were fewer strings in her head, so what was going on?
"Yo, it's a dripping guy, that's a great profession. ”
Zhang Yanfang suddenly sneered contemptuously. "Then tell me, what kind of banquet did you meet Qiao Zixuan at?"
Everyone was slightly stunned, and then they all suddenly realized, and all of them turned their eyes on Yang Chen.
Zhang Yanfang's emotional intelligence and speaking art are far inferior to Song Xuemei, but his words also remind everyone of a key doubt.
What is Qiao Zixuan's identity?
Even if the Qiao family was not one of the four major families before, it was definitely a first-line family.
A young lady from a first-line family. How do you know a Didi driver?
What kind of banquet can make two people get to know each other?
So they decided that the man must be lying.
"You're a prisoner, Brother Yang is my friend!"
Qiao Zixuan glared at Zhang Yanfang angrily, Zhang Yanfang is her stepmother, she has always disliked this woman in her heart, but where is her seniority. Usually, the well water does not interfere with the river water.
Hearing him be so straightforward and ask Yang Chen in this tone, Qiao Zixuan was not happy for a while.
"Am I not doing it for your good?"
Zhang Yanfang squinted and said, "You are the eldest lady, not any cat or dog can provoke you, the current man is quite deep, but others can easily deceive him." ”
"I don't have to worry about you. Please be respectful when you speak to my friend!"
Qiao Zixuan said angrily, "Who is a cat and a dog, you can make it clear, and what kind of person Brother Yang is, I don't need you to care, I know it myself!"
"Isn't it just a person who is full of lies, how do you have a brain?" Zhang Yanfang said without showing weakness.
"You make it clear, where did Brother Yang lie?" Qiao Zixuan gritted her teeth.
The Qiao family has a very strict family style on weekdays, and such quarrels are never allowed at the dinner table internally.
It's just that everyone didn't interject this time, because they did feel very confused, although Zhang Yanfang's way of speaking was wrong, what she said was what each of them wanted to say.
"Then tell me, what is your identity? What is his identity? At which banquet did you meet, and how did he attend the banquet at that time?" Zhang Yanfang said with her head held high.
"I ........"
Qiao Zixuan was so anxious that she gritted her teeth, but she didn't know how to explain it.
What Yang Chen did, she had to keep it a secret, that day at that small gathering, Yang Chen gave a death order, and no one was allowed to say it.
So even if it was the Qiao family, except for Qiao Zixuan herself, no one knew that the Qiao family could have today's status, and it was all supported by Yang Chen.
But. How can this be explained?
"Haha, I can't tell. ”
Zhang Yanfang smiled contemptuously, "I see that you are usually quite calculating, how can you be confused in this kind of thing, this man's mouth can't be believed casually."
I think you have such a little brain, it's better not to meddle in the company's affairs for the time being, so as not to be sold without knowing a word. You don't care about yourself, what if the entire Qiao family is involved?"
After Zhang Yanfang gave birth to a son for Qiao Wanhai, her arrogance became more and more arrogant, and her ambitions also swelled sharply, calculating every day how to make his son inherit the position of the head of the Qiao family in the future.
Qiao Zixuan, who is regarded by him as the number one rival, as long as he falls into the handle, he will never be polite, and now he forcibly deducts a hat of "crisis of the interests of the Qiao family" on Qiao Zixuan's head for a matter that is actually not related at all.
Zhang Yanfang doesn't have any great skills, but she is a master of blowing pillow wind and intriguing, otherwise she would not have fascinated Qiao Wanhai.
