Chapter 76: The Xia Family (Ask for Collection, Ask for Recommendation)
After destroying the Corpse King and learning some news of the three holy places from Feng Ziling, Ye Chen didn't stay long, so he went back.
Back at the villa, he called Nie Jianhua again, asked him to deal with the follow-up matters of Yong'an Cemetery, and began to meditate cross-legged again!
Meditating after the battle, Ye Chen felt that this would improve his state of mind faster.
When the golden crow rises in the east, the night fades, a new day comes, and Old Man Xia's birthday has finally arrived.
Xia Rumeng was afraid that Ye Chen would forget, so she called him early and told Ye Chen the exact location and asked him not to go to the wrong place.
Because he was afraid of traffic jams, Ye Chen didn't drive, and directly took a taxi and rushed towards Xia's house.
The Xia family is also a leading family in Wuzhou, and its industrial strength should not be underestimated.
There is no hustle and bustle here, it is deep and secluded, which is very suitable for the elderly to retire.
Exquisite and luxurious villas, rockery pools, and green trees and saffron all show the heritage of the Xia family.
When Ye Chen came here, Xia Rumeng was standing at the door and watching.
Maybe it's because of Old Man Xia's birthday, she is dressed very formally today, wearing a tasseled purple dress, dressed very exquisitely, and looks very eye-catching.
Beautiful yet elegant!
When Xia Rumeng saw Ye Chen's figure from a distance, her face immediately showed an extremely happy expression, and she trotted in front of Ye Chen.
"Ye Chen, you're finally here. ”
Ye Chen's face showed a chuckle, he reached out and pinched her little face, and said:
"Why, it's only been a few days, can't you wait?"
Xia Rumeng's face turned slightly red, lowered her head slightly, and said in a mosquito-like voice:
"I just wanted to see you sooner!"
Ye Chen chuckled, his heart warmed, and he followed her towards the courtyard of the Xia family.
In the courtyard of the Xia family, a table of banquets has already been set up.
Many relatives of the Xia family from near and far were all present, noisy and noisy, very lively.
When Ye Chen and Xia Rumeng sat side by side and snuggled together into the compound, they immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Ye Chen was wearing a sportswear that was not a high-end one, and he stood with the noble and beautiful Xia Rumeng, looking very abrupt.
"Who is that kid? can actually get Xia Rumeng's favor?"
"Xia Rumeng is a golden flower of our Xia family, I don't know how many sons and brothers are pursuing?"
"yes!"
I don't know how many people are sighing, mocking, or envious looking at Ye Chen and Xia Rumeng.
When I came to the hall of the Xia family's villa, it was already full of people on both sides, probably relatives or friends of the Xia family.
Through Xia Rumeng's whispered introduction on the side, Ye Chen probably had a general understanding of these people.
The white-haired old man with a majestic face sitting first was Xia Hongyi, Old Man Xia, and next to him was Xia Rumeng's grandmother.
Counting further down, the middle-aged man in a suit next to Old Man Xia is Xia Rumeng's father, Xia Bowen.
He now works in the city hall and has reached the rank of division chief.
Next to Xia Bowen is Xia Rumeng's second uncle, Xia Jingming, who is the current helmsman of the Xia Group.
However, this Xia Jingming's vision is too small, and he likes to be careful, and the Xia Group has become weaker and weaker under his leadership.
If it weren't for Xia Rumeng's grandmother's preference for this son, how could he still control the huge group?
"Grandpa, this is what I often tell you about Ye Chen!"
Bringing Ye Chen to Xia Hongyi's face, Xia Rumeng smiled and said crisply.
"Hello Grandpa Xia!"
Ye Chen bowed slightly and said politely.
Although he is arrogant and uninhibited on weekdays, in front of Xia Rumeng's elders, he will not be so arrogant and arrogant.
"Hmm!"
Xia Hongyi nodded slightly, but seeing that Ye Chen was dressed in ordinary clothes, his dress was not unusual, and he looked average, he couldn't help but be a little surprised.
What does his precious granddaughter like about him?
"Xiao Ye, I heard Mengmeng say that your kung fu is good, what are you doing at home?" asked Old Man Xia with a smile.
"Well, I used to do some small business, but now my parents are at home!"
Ye Chen's face was flat, and he said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"Hmph, that's it, you still want to marry us Mengmeng and go home?"
Seeing Ye Chen say this, Xia Rumeng's grandmother looked at Ye Chen coldly, and muttered a sentence coldly, with a mean face.
"Hey, I'm afraid it's coveting our family's property!"
Xia Rumeng's second uncle also spoke suddenly, and looked at Ye Chen's eyes full of unkindness.
"Grandma, Ye Chen, he's very powerful!"
Xia Rumeng opened her mouth, although she already knew that her grandmother might be a little opposed, but she didn't expect her to speak so directly.
"What's the awesome? Fight?"
Xia Rumeng's grandmother's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at Ye Chen with a gloomy look, her right hand gently stroked the jade bracelet in her wrist, and then said:
"This society is not just relying on fighting to make a good living, now it relies on capital!"
Many other relatives of the Xia family are also disdainful and cold-eyed!
Seeing that Ye Chen suddenly became the target of everyone, Xia Rumeng suddenly panicked in her heart.
however
Ye Chen's face did not change in the slightest from beginning to end, but there was a slight coldness in his eyes.
"Haha, congratulations to Boss Xia on his birthday!"
At that moment, a loud laugh suddenly came from outside the door, breaking the somewhat dull atmosphere.
Immediately after that, a group of people came in, looking at their appearances and clothes, they were also very valuable.
Walking in the front was an old man in a Tang costume, full of energy, with a pair of triangular eyes revealing endless shrewdness.
And behind him turned out to be Sun Si, who I had only met not long ago, as well as Wang Xiangyue, Li Zi'an, Zhang Tian and others.
"Lao Xia, I haven't seen you for a long time. ”
"Yo, isn't this Lao Sun? Come on, come on, Bowen quickly give Old Man Sun a seat!"
When Old Man Xia saw the old man, his face was immediately full of joy, and he hurriedly invited him in, and there was a burst of greetings.
Behind a few elders, Sun Si and a few others were whispering.
"Hehe, Sun Shao, I'll just say, how can that kid be better than you?"
Wang Xiangyue looked at Ye Chen, who was standing on the side and was ignored, and whispered to Sun Si on the side, her face full of ridicule and pride.
It seems that he can avenge the humiliating revenge of the previous few times!
"Yes, Sun Shao really thinks too much!" Li Zi'an also chuckled on the side.
"Sun Shao must humiliate him well after a while, and calculate all the previous accounts!"
Zhang Tian then added oil and vinegar.
"Hmph~"
Sun Si glanced at Ye Chen coldly, with slow disdain and ridicule on the corners of his mouth.
But
When he turned his gaze and looked at Xia Rumeng, his gaze suddenly became extremely hot, staring closely at Xia Rumeng's delicate figure and not letting go.
At this time, Old Man Sun and Old Man Xia also talked about the junior.
"Lao Xia, you really gave birth to a good granddaughter, she looks like a Peugeot, and she will definitely be a beautiful woman in the future. ”
Old man Sun looked at Xia Rumeng with satisfaction and smiled.
"It's okay, Rumeng is also in the past of Wuzhou, out of this acre and three points of land, there are many good girls outside!"
Although Old Man Xia was very proud in his heart, he still said modestly without a trace on his face.
"Haha, Old Man Xia, we have been friends for so many years, and I don't say secret words, today I came to give you a birthday greeting, but also to propose marriage!"
As soon as Old Man Sun said this, the depths of Old Man Xia's eyes revealed a dark glow without a trace.
The other Xia family members couldn't help but look at the juniors behind him, wanting to see if it was the young talent.
And Xia Rumeng was even more at this moment, her pretty face turned pale.
The sound came into her ears, making her heart tremble violently as if it had been electrified!
