Chapter 1077: The Second Uncle of the Cai Family
Listening to what Cai Wenjing said, Chu Feng took a look at today's day, today is Monday, that is to say, the Cai family just had dinner last night, and it is very likely that those elders will not return to the old mansion in the past few days, if they know that Cai Wenjing is back, they may also come back to see her.
Cai Wenjing stepped forward and knocked on the ancient door, and after half a minute, a person who looked like a housekeeper walked out of it, he first looked at Cai Wenjing suspiciously, and then his face showed ecstasy, obviously recognizing Cai Wenjing, and then he looked at Chu Feng standing behind him suspiciously, Chu Feng nodded at the person who opened the door, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Miss, you're back, didn't the second miss come back with you? The housekeeper opened the door and welcomed Cai Wenjing and Chu Feng in, while also asking why Xiao Pepper didn't come back.
"My sister is busy with things, so she didn't come back with me, is the second uncle at home? Cai Wenjing was quite polite to this housekeeper, with a faint smile on his face when he spoke, it seems that this housekeeper has been in their house for a long time.
"The second young master is still here, during the dinner last night, the second young master quarreled with your fifth uncle, and the fifth uncle has been arguing about dividing the family property. The housekeeper briefly told Cai Wenjing about the quarrel last night, and he sighed heavily when he spoke, it seems that the housekeeper Cai family is very loyal.
"This is my friend Chu Feng, this is Cai Bo, who has lived in our family for nearly 60 years, and later my grandfather let him enter our family tree and named him Cai Kun," Cai Wenjing introduced this housekeeper to Chu Feng, everyone called him Cai Bo, and even Cai Wenjing's father and second uncle called him Cai Bo.
"Hello Mr. Chu. Cai Bo respectfully greeted Chu Feng, and Chu Feng also responded with a smile, and then Cai Bo led the two into the main hall, where a middle-aged man who looked to be about 50 years old was sitting there making tea.
"Second young master, Miss is back, and she also brought back a boyfriend. Cai Bo walked up to the middle-aged man and whispered, hearing what Cai Bo said, the middle-aged man put down the teacup in his hand and quickly stood up from the chair.
"Xiao Jing, why don't you tell the second uncle when you come back, I'll let someone pick you up. Looking at the beautiful and moving Cai Wenjing, the second uncle's face was full of joy, he was familiar with Cai Wenjing, nodded at Chu Feng behind him, and at the same time looked at Chu Feng's appearance.
"I also decided to come back temporarily, this is my friend Chu Feng, he came to Kaiyuan to do some business, and he happened to come with me. Cai Wenjing still maintains due respect for her second uncle, after all, the second uncle was good to himself and his sister before, and when other relatives scolded him, the second uncle was reprimanding them.
"It's good to come back, don't stand here, let's go to the house and say, I just made tea, Uncle Cai, you clean up a guest room for this Mr. Chu, Xiao Jing still lives in the previous room." The second uncle asked Cai Bo to take away Chu Feng and Cai Wenjing's luggage, and at the same time asked the housekeeper to pack up a house for Chu Feng and come out.
"No, I have something to do in the afternoon. Cai Bo was just about to leave, but Chu Feng stopped him by making a sound, he was going to visit that foreign magic master in the afternoon, how could he have time to stay here.
"Since Mr. Chu is unwilling to live in the cold house, then I will not force Mr. Chu, I will send someone to send Mr. Chu over later, and at the same time welcome Mr. Chu to come to me at any time. Seeing that Chu Feng was unwilling to live here, the second uncle didn't force him to stay, and Cai Bo put Chu Feng's backpack in the living room.
"Second uncle, how is the family doing, I heard Uncle Cai say that you quarreled with the fifth uncle yesterday. Sitting on the chair, Cai Wenjing took a sip of tea gently, while Chu Feng stared around the house.
"In the past two years, the business has been a bit sluggish, although we are a time-honored brand, and there are more repeat customers, but after you leave, many ingredients can not make the original taste, which also leads to a large number of repeat customers are unwilling to come to us to eat again, plus some Western capital groups have a greater impact on our time-honored brand, so the family business has been in a state of loss in the past two years, but fortunately, it is not a lot of losses. ”
Hearing his niece ask how the family's business was, the second uncle simply told his niece that he believed that he could understand it with his niece's intelligence.
"There's no news from my dad yet. Listening to the second uncle's words, Cai Wenjing nodded silently, this matter is within her expectations, repeat customers are the raw materials of your ingredients, if you can't make the previous taste, then many repeat customers will be disappointed, and they will not come here to eat again.
"No, I have been to the public security bureau many times in the past few years since you left, including the local public security bureau where your father disappeared, and they didn't find any clues. ”
Cai Wenjing's words made the face of the second uncle of the Cai family full of loneliness, his eldest brother has been missing for so many years and there is no news at all, it is rumored that he has harmed the eldest brother, the purpose is to take over the business he participated in, in the face of these rumors, the second uncle of the Cai family did not stand up to make any explanation, but faced it with silence, which also made those rumors more authentic.
After Chu Feng looked at the house, his eyes had been looking at the second uncle of the Cai family intentionally or unintentionally, this man had a Confucian aura on him, and he didn't look like that kind of ruthless person, but he couldn't look at the surface when he looked at people, some people were just too good at disguise.
"Second uncle, I won't live at home today, I still live in the previous house, please inform the elders in the family to come here for a meeting tomorrow, I have something to tell them, Aunt Cai called me today, she will fly at nine o'clock tomorrow morning." ”
Cai Wenjing didn't want to live in the old mansion, and at the same time asked her second uncle to inform the elders in the family to have a meeting, it seems that she wanted to announce something.
"How did she come back from the United States, she hasn't been back since your grandfather died, and she rarely calls to ask about the situation at home. Cai Wenjing's words made the second uncle of the Cai family a little surprised, obviously a little surprised by the return of that Aunt Cai.
Chu Feng has been sitting there and has not spoken, the affairs at home have nothing to do with him, as long as Cai Wenjing is not in danger, he will not interfere in other things, unless those people want to take Cai Wenjing as a hostage or as a bargaining chip.
"Second Uncle will inform the others tonight, and we will wait for you here tomorrow morning. ”
