Chapter 84: The Ups and Downs of the Zhang Family

Ye Jingyun knew that this time the matter was tricky, the matter of the black-robed people and Tsing Yi alone was beyond his ability, and there was also the matter of taking care of the Yan family and Huanlong security, what was going on in the south, and what were these guys going to do here.

Extinguishing the cigarette butt in his hand on the ashtray, he frowned and began to deal with these things.

There were five or six cigarette butts lying messily in the brand-new glass ashtray, which showed how much trouble and worry the information just gave him.

If he doesn't work anymore, those who secretly say that they occupy the magpie's nest and rely on the cuff to grab food will definitely take advantage of the topic.

"In the days to come, I'll have to be busy~"

He walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, and everywhere he could see was the high-rise buildings, all kinds of shops lined up, and through the window he looked down condescendingly at the hustle and bustle of Namco City, and the uneasiness in his heart slowly subsided.

When his mood calmed down, he turned around and sat back at his desk and began to deal with the legacy work and new thorny problems left by the former deputy director.

Because it's a deputy bureau, things are complicated, and it takes a long time to figure things out. Fortunately, he also has a secretary as standard, otherwise he has no foundation in his heart about the priorities of the work in front of him.

The secretary does the small things, and the leader decides the big things, so his work is to make a single decision and sign documents, and the workload alone is also amazing.

Namco City is a second- and third-tier city in the south, relying on light industry and entertainment and catering industry to drive the economy, the pace of life is slower than that of first-tier cities, and it is also a place that many 'drifters' love to yearn for, with a floating population and permanent population of about 10 million, compared to second-tier cities, only the middle and lower population.

The city is distributed in concentric circles and is divided into three rings, within which are residential areas, light industrial areas and commercial areas, and are the settlements of more than 95 percent of the population. Outside the Third Ring Road are suburbs, consisting of villa parks and private gardens, with less than 5 percent of the population.

Compared with the inside of the Third Ring Road, the environment outside the Third Ring Road is relatively quiet, the air pollution is low, and it is a favorite settlement for wealthy families and dignitaries.

Among these wealthy businessmen and dignitaries, there are three major families that are more famous.

These three families are the Zhang family, which has a long history and profound heritage, and started with real estate, the Xiong family, a catering giant in the later stage, and the Yan family, which relied on huge financial resources to forcibly seize and annex the automobile market.

The strength of the three in Nanmeng City is also evenly matched, although their respective interests rarely care about other families, but the three are always wrestling secretly, and in recent years, the Yan family has faintly suppressed the two to become the first family of Nanmeng, and the news secretly revealed is that there are several shadows of upper-class families behind them, which makes the Xiong family and the Zhang family very uneasy.

........

A private garden on the outskirts of Nammon, where a group of villas is located, and this is where the Zhang family is located.

In one of the villas, which stood out more than the others, a group of people were holding a silent family feast around a long table.

The man sitting on the main seat at one end of the long table is named Zhang Bingtian. He is about 70 years old, and because of his perennial health, his skin is not dry and wrinkled like the old man in the village. His hair and temples are gray, and although his face is old, he can still faintly see his handsome face when he was young from the face of the old man who has gone through the vicissitudes of life.

The old man and his wife have raised eight children in his life, three sons and five daughters, married and married, anyway, except for the eighth child who is still in college, he has a family. He is usually busy with his own business, and at today's family banquet, he is already very satisfied with having two sons by his side, and as for the other son, he has a headache when he thinks about it.

At this moment, he grabbed a fritter from the plate on the table, took a bite, drank a sip of hot soy milk, closed his eyes and savored the chewing, and opened his eyes for a while, very satisfied.

To his left sat a middle-aged couple, about forty years old, with no expression on their faces, and behind him sat two young men, each quietly eating something from their plates.

And there was also a couple sitting on the right hand side of the old man, the man's brows were tightly locked, the woman's heart was heavy, but there was a five or six-year-old little Lori beside her who was picking and choosing to eat on the plate.

There were men and women, young and old, but all of them were silent, eating quietly.

There is less of a kind of warmth and liveliness that a home should have, and more of a 'sickly' quiet.

"Mom, I don't want to eat this, can you take me to pizza and coke?" the picky eater gently tugged at her mother's sleeve and whispered, but at the same time, the voice came very clearly, in the ears of everyone at the silent family banquet.

Sun Xiaofang shook her head, made a silent gesture at her daughter Zhang Keke, and touched her head with her hand to comfort her.

Zhang Keke's little Lori saw that her mother was not going to take her out to eat delicious food, her big eyes suddenly burst into tears, and the princess's temper exploded instantly.

"No, no, no, I'm going to eat pizza, but Coco doesn't like sandwiches and milk. Woo woo woo~"

The crying suddenly broke the calm, everyone stopped eating, and their eyes suddenly converged on Zhang Keke's body.

"Housekeeper, take Miss Coco out to eat, eat whatever you want. Zhang Bingtian took the handkerchief from the maid on the side, and while wiping his hands, he arranged for the housekeeper to take Zhang Keke out to eat.

"Huaichun, you too, Coco is still young, and she may not be used to eating what we adults eat. Child, you can eat whatever you want, don't be aggrieved. ”

As soon as he heard his grandfather's consent, Zhang Keke jumped down from a stool higher than her, rushed to Zhang Bingtian's side, and climbed his leg with nine-fold pants.

"Thank you, grandpa. ”

Then she quickly fled, but she was afraid that this bad grandfather would stab his little face with his scum, and the kind of itching pain was very uncomfortable.

"Run slowly~ Don't fall, you two go together and protect Miss. ”

Zhang Bingtian liked this little granddaughter very much, and after thinking about it, he arranged for two bodyguards to follow him.

"Dad, this little guy eats a lot of good things, but he's usually too picky eater. You've been used to her since you were a child, and your good family banquet was also disturbed by this little guy. Zhang Huaichun wiped his mouth, looked at his daughter who ran out of the villa, and said to his father with a smile.

"I'm done, you two are done, come with me to the study. Zhang Bingtian didn't respond, just said a word and walked towards the study on the second floor.

The middle-aged man on the side, who had not spoken, waited for Zhang Bingtian to go up to the second floor before he slowly spoke: "Third brother, eldest brother seems to have something on your mind today." ”

Wiping his mouth and pausing for a moment, Zhang Huaizhou continued: "Think about everything clearly, don't be like the second Huaiyu, who was kicked out of the house by our father, and now I don't know where to beg for food and wander." ”

"You threaten me?" When Zhang Huaichun heard this, he was furious in his heart, and he slapped the table and stood up from the stool, staring at his eldest brother coldly.

"If you hadn't made the second brother make a big mistake, causing 10% of the family's industry to turn into a bubble overnight, and finally being kicked out of the house by my father in anger, why wouldn't the second brother be able to return to wandering out now if he has a family.

I respect you as the eldest brother, so I turn a blind eye to what you do. If you work hard again, don't blame the third brother for tearing your face with you, tell your father everything, and let your bamboo basket be empty. ”

"Yo~ Third brother, I said that I was like a great sage, I didn't know who turned Huaiyu's family away in the rainstorm night, so that the child had a high fever and almost lost his life. Your eldest brother is ashamed of himself compared to you, my good brother. Zhang Huaizhou's wife, Wei Lan, opened her mouth abruptly, and violently tore open a wound in Zhang Huaichun's heart with one sentence, and she poked it violently, dripping with blood.

"You, I'm ......" Zhang Huaichun was speechless for a while, although he did do it. But he has a bitterness, and this hardship is inconvenient for him to say now, and he is very passive for a while.

"The third brother must not be as knowledgeable as your sister-in-law, and the woman's opinion is not elegant. ”

Zhang Huaizhou saw that his younger brother was suppressed by his wife, Shi Shiran stood up and spoke lightly.

"You take Xiaohao and Xiaojie to the car and wait, and after I meet my father with the third brother, I will look for you. ”

After speaking, he walked towards the second floor, and after just two steps, he turned back to his third brother and said: "Third brother, I forgot to tell you, in addition to the shares on my father, I am now the second largest shareholder of Blue Sky Group."

I'm going to have a board meeting in the afternoon to discuss your 'experience' in the branch, after all, Dad values you very much." ”

Between the words, the * flavor was strong, and he finally moved the knife towards his third brother.

As soon as the words fell, he walked upstairs without looking back.

"Xiao Hao, Xiao Jie, let's go, this meal is really unappetizing. Wei Lan picked up the handbag on the table, greeted the two sons sitting on the side, and walked towards the door of the villa.

"Mom, aren't you going too far. The young man named Xiaojie finally couldn't help but say something. "A good family banquet, let you make the whole land so troublesome, grandpa will be chilled when he sees it. ”

"What do children know. Xiao Hao, pull your brother away. Wei Lan's face flashed with displeasure, but knowing that the child was still young, he didn't understand what his parents were doing, so he could only let his brother Zhang Hao pull his younger brother away.

She has always protected her cubs, she has never beaten her two sons, even if she is angry, these two are the two baby sons she raised with hard work in October.

She believes that when Xiaojie is older, she will understand what they are doing today and know their good intentions.

"Don't pull me, I'll go by myself. Xiaojie shook off his brother and pulled him away, and took big steps to walk out of the villa first, without waiting for his mother and brother.

He wanted to escape from here, from this big family of indifference.

Because here, he doesn't feel a trace of love, only relatives hurt each other and compete for benefits and money.

"It's a pity that those aunts didn't come over today, otherwise how could this farce end so quickly, it must be more lively than today. ”

The young man named Zhang Hao raised his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and didn't care at all that his younger brother shook off his hand, but was a little disappointed, disappointed that a good show ended so hastily.

He and Wei Lan shook their heads in unison, and then stepped out of the villa gate, and the figure disappeared.

"Husband~" Sun Xiaofang dragged her husband, her eyes were very worried.

Zhang Huaichun glanced back at his wife, patted her hands, and comforted him in as gentle a tone as possible: "I'm fine~ You go back to the villa next to me first."

I'll go in and see what Dad is looking for with us, and I'll go back when we're done, don't worry. ”

"However, the eldest brother obviously has bad intentions, you go ....." Sun Xiaofang's eyes were filled with water, and he was about to snatch out of his eyes in the next second.

"Go back and wait for me~ It's okay. Seeing his wife's expression of wanting to cry, Zhang Huaichun endured his distress, bent down to kiss away the tears she still shed, comforted him and walked towards the second floor.

"Be careful, I'll be at home waiting for you to come back. Zhang Xiaofang wiped her eyes and shouted at Zhang Huaichun.

Zhang Huaichun waved his hand backwards and did not look back at his wife.

A family banquet, his grandson is sweet, his brother and sister-in-law are bitter, his wife is in tears, and his heart hurts hotly at the moment.

Sweet and sour, a family banquet actually made him taste it all over again.

The family is bigger, there are more people, the heart is confused, and the love is scattered~

Although the Zhang family has a profound heritage, it has just recovered in recent years, if there is civil strife at this juncture, coupled with the two major families of Xiong Yan eyeing each other, it will be precarious~

Zhang's family, in a blink of an eye... and danger ~
