Chapter 0553: Female Assassin
The hibiscus tent is warm, and the jade is smoking.
The woman in the loose silk pajamas placed a piece of incense on the jade carving, and suddenly the smoke lingered like a waterfall.
The woman got up and sat in front of the mirror, smeared the precious lipid oil on her face in the mirror, which is a famous health product sought from the Taoist temple of Mount Emei, it is said that it is made of snow clam oil in the Northeast for ten years with the snow lotus of the Tianshan Mountains in Tibet.
"Mommy......" The girl in a cherry blossom-colored nightdress was sitting on a large bed, holding a big marmot puppet in her arms, staring at the woman with a hesitant expression and asking, "This Lin Xiu and Wei Xiaoqi don't look special, why do you value them so much and invite them to live at home?"
"Silly Ah Lian, what do you know?" The woman was Lan Tai, she patted the skin on her face, and saw that those wrinkles seemed to become plump and plump, then she got up and sat back at the head of the bed, and said with a complicated look, "The matter of Hongmen is very big, your father can't manage so many things now, we have to manage the things that have been settled down a long time ago!"
"Caring about your own things, but wooing outsiders?" Holan tilted his head and said blankly, "I don't understand, Daddy has already divided the family, these two people are too young, and didn't he say that he is still in trouble?"
"You are too young, we have a saying that it is easy to put icing on the cake, but there are too few people who give charcoal in the snow!" Lan Tai pulled the quilt to cover her body, only a white and plump chest appeared, and her eyes smiled faintly, "If you want to win over people, you have to remember in the future, it doesn't matter if you fool around with fox friends and dogs, but if you want to make true friends with someone, either when you are down, or when you are down...... It's the human heart!"
"I understand Mommy, you mean to help them?"
"I just have this idea, but I'm not sure yet, just test it first!" Lan Tai smiled faintly, "Hongmen Twelve Hall, the power is very great, when the Situ Gang Master was in the past, there were not so many things, your father has inherited a lot of favors from Brother Situ to settle many things before Aokou, he started from the rivers and lakes, you don't forget this." ”
"I haven't forgotten that Daddy used to tell me all the time, but I think it's all old stories!"
"The story is old-fashioned, but the truth remains the same, the characters in the rivers and lakes have changed, but the rules of the rivers and lakes remain the same, and the historical dynasties will change, let alone a family?"
"yes, why is that?" the girl asked, looking up at the woman blankly.
"Some trees are very old, but as long as the roots are still there, even if the trees are hollowed out, every summer, they will still look so lush and luxuriant, because the tree is too deeply rooted and tries its best to maintain the nutrients of the tree, but if the tree is empty, the roots work hard, such a big tree...... Sooner or later, if you don't be pushed down, you will be blown down by the wind. ”
"But our family's business has been doing very well, even if everyone separates, won't they encounter the dangers you said Mommy?"
"You don't think so, but people don't push, the wind and rain will come, and when the wind and rain don't come, someone thinks that the tree may be able to sell for some money, so they will pick up a hoe and start digging ————"
"If you think about it, a tree that looks very big, people passing by will think about it, you can't dig it with your own hoe, but a tree that doesn't look so big has value, and there will be many people who want to give it a try and swing the hoe!"
The girl seemed to understand whether she understood or not, and bit her index finger with a blank expression, and muttered: "Then we don't need a person who can't protect ourselves to help us, right?
"Don't look down on the young people who go in and out of high-end places with you every day, and don't underestimate these heroic people who are reckless, he took over the position of the head of the Eagle Hall in the south of the Twelve Halls of Hongmen at a young age, he is probably only in his early twenties, I remember that when you became the vice president of the Little Knife Society, you were considered young, but at that time you were already in your early thirties!"
The girl was a little unconvinced and said: "The times are different, Uncle Xiang's current achievements are amazing!"
"The times are different, but the rivers and lakes are the same, and it is even more difficult to mix than before, in the past, as long as you bear hardships and stand hard work, you will have a way out, but in this era, the most no-way out may be a group of people who are hard-working and hard-working, and you have to have brains, do you really think that young man is so simple?"
When Mrs. Lan said this, the girl looked a little suspicious, and muttered: "If you say so according to Mommy, wouldn't he also deliberately hide himself from us?"
"Who knows, tomorrow will be everywhere, you find time to take them out for a walk and make friends with each other, isn't it a bad thing?" Lan Tai smiled, lay down, covered her chest, and sighed, "Silly girl...... Mom wants you to understand men, but she doesn't like you to understand men......"
"Why?"
"If you understand a man, you will be mature, but the price of a woman's maturity will be very ......" Lan Tai finished quietly, patted her daughter's arm and smiled, "Sleep, it's a little late, I have to attend the ribbon-cutting event tomorrow, if I am not beautiful by then, I will lose face!"
"Oh......"
The mother and daughter in this room just lay down, and in the other room, Wei Xiaoqi and I also just lay down after bathing.
"You really don't go to sleep next door?" I asked, turning my head to look at Wei Xiaoqi next to me.
Wei Xiaoqi shook his head, and said with a helpless wry smile: "This house is too big, and I recognize the bed, a person sleeps in such a big bed in such an empty house, I'm afraid don't even think about sleeping tonight......! What do rich people think, is a big house really good?"
"Poof......" I couldn't help laughing, "You said earlier that you want to buy a big house when you have money?"
"Can't you look forward to it, can you give me some fantasies?" Wei Xiaoqi stretched out his leg and kicked me.
I helplessly avoided some, and sighed helplessly: "It's definitely not good to be too big, I can't live in so many people, and they all say how big a rich man's house is, how empty his heart is, there is probably a little truth in this, right? The house is definitely not the bigger the better, but this Lan Tai is not here for a long time anyway, there should be no such troubles!"
"What do you think Mrs. Lan is thinking?" Wei Xiaoqi asked with a frown.
I shook my head and said, "Guess what's going on, at least for now, inviting us to live in her house instead of sending us to a hotel should be a lot of goodwill, but we can't take it lightly, maybe Lan Tai sensed the crisis and protected us in this way?"
"Really...... Thinking too much, right?"
I reached out and hugged her, just lifted the hem of her pajamas and was about to climb the snowy mountain secretly, Wei Xiaoqi slapped it away, bit her lip angrily and said: "Don't mess around, the environment here is unfamiliar, and in someone else's bed at someone else's house, I'm not used to it, I still have business tomorrow, you haven't tossed enough with Chu Forsythia last night?"
I could only put my hand down, hugged her slender waist, pulled her into my arms, and said, "You're right, then let's sleep!"
Wei Xiaoqi rolled her eyes with an expression of disbelief.
But at this time, my phone lit up, I picked it up and looked at it, and suddenly picked up the phone in surprise: "What's wrong, is something wrong with you?"
Qin Aiguo said in a strange tone on the other end of the phone: "Something happened, but things are a little strange, someone broke into Guo Jingcheng's place to assassinate him tonight, and almost succeeded, Guo Jingcheng was seriously injured and sent to the hospital, at present, Guo Jingcheng's residence and the hospital where he is located are strictly guarded, I guess the matter will not be hidden!"
I jumped out of bed and said in a shocked tone: "It can't be our people, right?" Ye Qingge and Third Brother Du, have you called separately to ask?"
"It's been beaten, Third Brother Du and Ye Qingge both denied that they sent someone to make a move!" Qin Aiguo's tone seemed a little excited, "Brother Xiu, don't get excited, let me tell you a good news, we took a picture of the assassination, it should have been done by a strange woman, Guo Jingcheng happened to meet Xiang Tiande at that time, if it wasn't for one of Xiang Tiande's men who punched that woman, Guo Jingcheng might have really died!"
I was stunned: "Is it so exciting? Did you shoot that woman's face?"
"There is no front face, only a side face, not too clear, I will pass it to Brother Xiu now?"
"Okay, you pass it over immediately!" I said in a somewhat excited tone, and suddenly remembered, and added, "By the way! Be careful that this is a maze, you contact Ye Qianming to see which hospital Guo Jingcheng is in, is there a way to continue to keep an eye on him twenty-four hours a day, and ...... That Xiang Tiande, send half of the current manpower to keep an eye on him!"
"Okay Brother Xiu!" Qin Ai said with a calm smile in Chinese, "That woman is injured, I sent someone to chase her, but there is no news so far, if we chase that woman in the future, how to deal with it?"
I frowned and thought carefully for a while: "If you catch up, lock it up first, don't make any moves, and help her treat her injuries, right...... Forget it, let's leave it to Ye Qingge to deal with, she should know what to do!"
"Okay......" Qin Aiguo chatted with me for a while, and then hung up the phone and went to deal with the matter over there.
Wei Xiaoqi roughly noticed that something had happened, and couldn't help but wonder: "What's wrong?"
