Chapter 7: Long-lost warmth
Lu Xiao took a taxi and arrived outside the Nie family's old mansion and found that many servants at the door were busy.
Hang red lanterns and paste colored paper.
The day after tomorrow is the 70th birthday of Nie Zhongkang, the old lady of the Nie family, and according to the rules, a special event will be held.
He went directly to his grandfather and aunt.
I haven't seen him in January, and my grandfather seems to be in good spirits.
My aunt's whole person looks a lot haggard.
After greeting for a while, Lu Xiao had a private chat with his aunt.
"Auntie, what's going on? Why don't you seem to have any energy? ”
Lu Xiao asked with concern.
Nie Suyan sighed:
"Xiao'er, a month ago, didn't our Nie family get the agency of Zixiao Pharmaceutical? The entire Nie family thought that they could use this carp to jump into the dragon gate and soar, who knows, something happened. ”
"Zixiao Pharmaceutical has changed hands, and our family's agency has also been taken away by the Heavenly Master Daomen, and the entire Nie family has begun to be stormy again. ”
Nie Suyan's sad face:
"Originally, your grandfather's seventieth birthday was a day of great joy. But I have received some rumors that the other three major branches of the Nie clan seem to want to take this opportunity to seize power, force your grandfather to abdicate, and drive our vein out of the power center of the Nie clan......"
Originally, these things involved the struggle for the rights of the big family, and Nie Suyan would not tell Lu Xiao about it as a child.
But Nie Suyan could feel that Lu Xiao had matured a lot in the past two years, so he didn't hide it.
Lu Xiao listened to his aunt's detailed explanation, and quickly figured out the situation.
The Nie family is a big family that originated in a small village in Shaoxing.
But not only the Gusu Nie family, but also the other three branches.
The four branches of the entire big family have worked together to run a big family business.
It is now the Nie Group.
Because Nie Zhongkang is the patriarch of the Great Nie clan, he is highly respected and quite capable.
Therefore, the right to speak of the Nie Group has always been in the hands of the Gusu Nie branch.
And now, Nie Zhongkang is old, and the Nie Group was previously suppressed by the Medical Holy Gate, and he hurt his muscles and bones again.
Originally, having obtained the agency rights of Zixiao Pharmaceutical, Nie's Group could not only return blood, but also go further.
But now the agency is suddenly gone.
The other three major branches wanted to use this as an excuse to force Nie Zhongkang to abdicate, and by the way, drive the Gusu Nie vein out of the power center of the Nie group.
"Auntie, don't worry, the soldiers will block it, and the water will cover it. As long as you and your grandfather, don't mess around, the other three branches can't make any moths. ”
Lu Xiao smiled and persuaded her aunt to relax and not to be nervous.
The other three major branches, whether they seize power or not, he doesn't care.
With his current status, status and ability, the four major branches of the entire Da Nie clan, all combined, are not as good as a finger of him.
The other three veins, what kind of tricks to compete for power, want to force the palace or something, in his opinion, it is simply a joke.
really endangered his grandfather and aunt, and he could make these conspirators taste despair with a snap of his fingers.
"That's what you say...... Hey, forget it, I've told you about these things, and you little broken boy can't help. ”
Nie Suyan shook his head and stopped the topic.
Xiao'er has matured a lot in the past two years, but she is a child after all.
What ideas can be made for the power of such a big family?
It's unlikely to be of much help.
"Let's talk about your problem first, Xiao'er, you are not too young, do you have a favorite girl, if not, my aunt knows a lot of girls who are about the same age as you, why don't you arrange two and meet you?"
When it came to Lu Xiao's lifelong events, Nie Suyan came to the spirit and was full of energy.
"Auntie, I'm only twenty years old, you're in such a hurry to 'marry' me......"
Lu Xiao rolled his eyes.
This is to arrange the rhythm of your own blind date.
……
Suzhou International Airport.
There was a charming girl who slowly walked out of the airport hall, attracting countless passengers around to watch.
The girl is one meter seven tall, with slender legs and fair skin, like a delicate porcelain doll.
The skin on the face can be broken by blowing, and the eyes are as bright as gems, and they are stunning.
"Lu Xiao, Lu Xiao, since you dare to humiliate me, then at your grandfather's birthday banquet in two days, don't blame me for not saving face for you. ”
"In front of all the relatives and friends of the entire Nie family, I want you to realize how big a gap there is between you and me Ye Qingcheng!"
"Let yourself agree to break the marriage with me!"
"Even so, it will make you, and the entire Nie family, a laughing stock. But you can't blame me, you brought it on yourself!"
"Who told you to be so self-conscious, and you can even say such things as taking a break from Miss Ben?!"
The girl clenched her little fists, and her beautiful eyes were full of coldness.
……
After chatting with his aunt for a while, and having lunch with his grandfather, Lu Xiao returned to the East Chamber, where his mother once lived, and began to pick up the flowers and plants inside.
Soon it was five o'clock in the afternoon, and Li Xingzhi called him and said Lu Xiao, you are ready to go quickly, remember the place, the ancient city of Gusu, Deyue Tower!
Lu Xiao said:
"Got it, I know you're not bad for money. However, Deyue Tower is the first building in Gusu City, and the consumption there is not low. It costs three or five thousand to arrange a table at will, as for it?"
Li Xingzhi said with a smile:
"Hypocrisy. One man, two brothers. Our brothers wore a pair of pants for three years of high school. I haven't seen you in the past three years, can the grade be lower for you? Don't worry, although my old man is not a big man, he still has a lot of money. ”
"Okay, then I'm not going to be polite to you. ”
Lu Xiao smiled, and his heart was filled with a long-lost warmth.
……
Lu Xiao still knows a lot about Li Xingzhi, a tablemate in high school for three years.
is bold and simple, and his mind is quite simple, not too much little ninety-nine.
Except for liking to brag about the scene, there is nothing bad about it.
At that time, he transferred from the capital to Suzhou, and he didn't have any friends, but Li Xingzhi has always taken care of him.
took a taxi, and Lu Xiao went straight to Deyue Tower.
Li Xingzhi was already waiting downstairs.
"Lu Xiao, let's go, I booked the largest box in Deyue Tower, 'Wangxian Pavilion', for you to wash the dust and catch the wind, there are cards. ”
As soon as Lu Xiao came, Li Xingzhi stepped forward extremely enthusiastically and grabbed Lu Xiao's shoulder.
"Yes, as for it? ”
Lu Xiao was speechless.
It's really a bit "flattered".
