After listening to Ji Xiaoying's speech, Liang Wenbo said with emotion: "Aunt Gu is really not easy, and the best time in her life is all spent on her sister." ”

Mo Fan nodded and said, "It's not easy for Gu Shiingyan to grow up in such an environment. ”

The two of them raised their glasses as they spoke. After they moved in, Aunt Gu would come to the door once a month, looking east and west to inspect everywhere, and she would not let go of every corner, she was simply the most rigorous and demanding environmental health inspector in the world. Because of Tang Xiaoxiao's credit, Aunt Gu basically couldn't find anything wrong, but she was extremely vigilant about Liang Wenbo's brush paints, and she had to talk for a long time every time, which made them very annoyed. Unexpectedly, this trivial housewife who is a little disgusting is ordinary but unusual, ordinary but extraordinary. People who can overcome adversity will always make people respect.

"Not really, but they're having a hard time now. Ji Xiaoying also raised her wine glass as she spoke, and the wall clock on the wall had just passed ten o'clock.

Mo Fan looked at Ji Xiaoying and said, "Actually, I think the most unsimple person should be you." ”

Ji Xiaoying smiled and said, "You don't need to worship me too much. ”

Mo Fan said: "You can tell the story so wonderfully, I really can't worship it." ”

Ji Xiaoying raised her eyebrows and said, "What do you mean, do you tease you when I tell nonsense?"

Mo Fan said: "That's not it, I think you always seem to have an unusual interest in your neighbors. ”

Ji Xiaoying sank her face and said, "You have nothing to do, are you?"

Mo Fan smiled and said, "Don't dare, don't dare." ”

When Ji Xiaoying and Gu Xingyan met before, one was called "Miss Gu" and the other was called "Officer Ji", and it can be seen from the names of each other that the two know each other, but they are not very familiar, let alone have any friendship, that is, the general neighbor relationship. Therefore, the things that Ji Xiaoying talked about could never have been told to her by Gu Xingyan. Although Aunt Gu is very strong in chatting, she and Ji Xiaoying may not be able to talk together, and there are some things that women will not easily tell outsiders, especially their sad past.

So there should be only one answer, these things that Ji Xiaoying learned were all from her own investigation. I really don't know how she has such a hobby, is this the so-called professionalism of national security personnel? I'm afraid she has enough to eat. The person who is a neighbor with her is really unlucky, and she can't keep her privacy at all.

At this time, a bottle of wine had bottomed out, Liang Wenbo opened the second bottle, and when he poured the wine, he was still complaining: "That guy in Jingshan is getting more and more picky, I have been looking for him in his wine cellar for a long time, but there is not a single bottle of 82-year-old Lafite, only these three bottles of 86-year-old." When I called the guy and asked him, he said that he had drunk all of his 82 years. ”

Ji Xiaoying said: "If I were Brother Jingshan and hid all the good wine, I would have to guard against a guy like you." ”

Liang Wenbo glanced at Ji Xiaoying and said, "It's like you haven't drunk, don't stand and talk without back pain, okay?"

Ji Xiaoying said: "How much have I drunk, can I compare with you, a drunkard?"

Liang Wenbo said: "Fifty steps and a hundred steps are just laughing." ”

Mo Fan said: "Do you know how many bottles of wine Château Lafite produces a year?"

Liang Wenbo said: "There are more than 200,000 bottles. ”

Mo Fan said: "Even if it is 300,000 bottles, how much do you think is left after 82 years of drinking?"

Liang Wenbo thought for a while and said, "According to what you say, it seems that there shouldn't be much?"

Ji Xiaoying said: "The most people in the world are drunkards, and three million bottles are not enough to drink." ”

Liang Wenbo smiled: "That's right." It is said that the Chinese drink about 3 million bottles of Lafite every year, and I really don't know where the extra 2 million bottles of wine come from. ”

Mo Fan said: "As far as I know, there should be no more than 5,000 bottles of 82-year-old Lafite in existence, and I am afraid that there are less than 1,000 bottles that can be circulated in the market, and they are basically regarded as collectibles, and no one will take them out to drink." You've been lucky enough to drink so many bottles, you should be content. ”

Liang Wenbo was slightly surprised: "No, less is less, and it hasn't reached this level, right? ”

Mo Fan said: "That's because you happen to know a few friends who have the habit of storing wine, or rather, those friends of yours have always had a tradition of storing wine at home. ”

Liang Wenbo understood what Mo Fan meant. For example, the Xu family and the Zeng family will order a batch of wine from major well-known wineries every year, and at the same time will buy it in the market, and most of the wine they buy will be put into the cellar for collection, so that over the decades, a batch of wine will be accumulated in each year, and the number will be considerable. Due to cultural differences and some historical reasons in China, there are very few families with this tradition, but in Europe and the United States, if there is no big wine cellar at home, which does not collect thousands of bottles of good wine of various years, even if you have money, you are embarrassed to call yourself a nobleman, which is also a symbol of heritage.

He couldn't help but sigh: "It turns out that our family doesn't have good wine to drink, because our ancestors didn't lay a good foundation!"

Mo Fan smiled: "If you want your son to grow up and have good wine to drink, you should start working hard now." ”

Liang Wenbo snapped his fingers and said, "It makes sense, this thing is worth doing." ”

Ji Xiaoying said disdainfully: "Just him, getting a few bottles of wine back is not enough for him to drink, can he still take care of future generations?"

Liang Wenbo said with a smile: "You don't understand this, drinking other people's is different from drinking your own." ”

Ji Xiaoying said: "You are so cheap, I can't help but want to beat you." ”

Liang Wenbo said: "Would you like to have some wine?"

The three of them drank wine and laughed for a while, and Ji Xiaoying went back at half past ten. Liang Wenbo also opened the last bottle of wine and said, "This time you can have a good time." ”

Mo Fan said: "I don't drink anymore, I'm going to exercise." ”

Liang Wenbo said: "You exercise so diligently in the morning and evening, shouldn't it be for a bet with a bitter coffee?"

Mo Fan said: "Can I be more serious with her? Exercising is for yourself, this kind of thing is important to persevere, classmate!"

Liang Wenbo said: "Oh, then I will insist. ”

Mo Fan said: "You just pull it down, you just ate so many things." ”

Liang Wenbo said: "I'm still early to bed, I'll come by myself later." He poured himself a drink.

Mo Fan had just done two sets of push-ups, and his mobile phone rang with a text message prompt, but it was Lu Xiaorong who said goodnight to him. He replied to the text message, and then remembered Lu Xiaorong's intention to let him come back early, so he said to Liang Wenbo: "Ask someone with you, there is a person named Liang Chengde, is it your relative?"

Liang Wenbo said: "Sort of, the relationship is a little far, I'll take care of it." He pinched his fingers pretendedly, "My grandfather is a brother to his grandfather." Well, that's the relationship. ”

This relationship is indeed a bit far, and now most of such relatives rarely move around each other, and they feel more alienated when they meet. But according to the traditional concept, this kind of kinship is still very close. Grandpa is the great-grandfather, and the next generation is the great-grandfather, that is to say, Liang Wenbo's great-grandfather is Liang Chengde's great-grandfather, and there are no five suits. To use a not-so-good analogy, if in the feudal era, Liang Wenbo committed the crime of great rebellion and wanted to punish the nine clans, Liang Chengde and Liang Chengde's son would have to lose their heads, and Liang Chengde's grandson would be spared.

Mo Fan said: "So he is your uncle." ”

Liang Wenbo pursed his lips and said, "Who is the bird of him." Why did you remember to ask him?"

Mo Fan said: "He came to our company as a sales director. ”

Liang Wenbo was surprised: "No, Lin Ruoxi can agree?"

Mo Fan said: "This morning, I fired your clan uncle from the company. ”

Liang Wenbo was stunned for a moment, then laughed, and said with a firm thumb: "It's still you! Tell me the details, so that I can drink!"

Mo Fan didn't expect him to be so elated, told him about the before and after, and asked, "Did he offend you or what?"

Liang Wenbo said: "Not really. But my grandfather was driven out of the Liang family by his grandfather back then. ”

Mo Fan thought to himself, there are really a lot of rights and wrongs in the big family. He doesn't bother to ask about this kind of thing, and then does his own push-ups.

Liang Wenbo was very interested, "Let me tell you, my father didn't call him by his current name before, according to the genealogy of the Liang family, he was called Liang Chengren." I also have a pro-uncle named Liang Chengjian. About 40 years ago, I can't say the specific year, my grandfather's family was kicked out of the Liang family by Liang Chengde and his grandfather, and they were removed from the family tree, so my father seems to be only ten years old, right?"

Mo Fan glanced at Liang Wenbo and saw that he didn't look like he had drunk too much, so he let him go.

Liang Wenbo took a sip of wine, and then said: "Since the name has been removed, my grandfather said, let's not mix with them anymore, you two should remove the word 'Cheng' in the middle of the name, which means that the generations of the Liang family will no longer be ordered, and the line will be drawn with them." My dad said, "What are you doing with 'frugality' and 'benevolence'?" Do you flaunt them for them? My grandfather asked, "What do you want to call names?" My dad said, no matter how beautiful the name is, what's the use, let's call Liang Da and Liang Er, simple and upright!"

Mo Fan was a little moved when he heard this, and thought to himself, no wonder Lin Ruoxi has been awesome since he was a child, it turns out that there is genetics.

"Although my uncle is two years older than my father, he listens to my father for many things, and my grandfather has no objections, so the name is decided. Later, my grandfather sold all the valuable things in the house, borrowed some money from a friend, and went to Nanyang to buy a boat and started trafficking. That ship is the predecessor of Haitian Shipping. ”

Mo Fan said: "In this way, your family is self-made?"

Liang Wenbo said proudly: "Then what do you think? Haitian Shipping is the work of my grandfather and my father. Haitian Electronics was also developed in the hands of my mother. ”

Mo Fan sat down at the coffee table again, took a sip of wine, and said, "Now I understand a little bit why your mother and Lin Ruoxi have such expectations for you." ”
