33. Lessons
After the end of the war, it became the first family business to successfully transform, and then set foot in emerging industries such as electronics, exports, and entertainment, with strong asset strength, and was known as a century-old family.
The main residence of the Zou family is located in the Sihemen of the imperial capital, but because the old lady of the Zou family is from T City, Zou Yu lived in T City with his mother for a long time when he was young. With the death of the old lady and the gradual replacement of family rights, Zou Yu also chose to stay in T City to live after he got older.
Because he has a different management philosophy from his father, Zou Yi has been living alone outside since he took over Zou at the age of 20, coming home once or twice a month, sometimes only for one meal.
Years of power control have made Mr. Zou extreme and full of control, he does not allow anyone to disobey or question his decisions, even close to his family, and the most direct manifestation is the delivery of power in his hands.
After graduating from university, Zou Yi was arranged by his father to work as an assistant to the general manager of a small enterprise under the Zou family, and he would have been directly promoted to the head office after a year, but he was postponed indefinitely because of his disagreement with his father.
But as the only heir of the Zou family at that time, Zou Yi was not a mediocre person, he did not act rashly, but simply took advantage of the convenience of the Zou family's connections to build the obscure small enterprise into the most potential emerging enterprise at that time, and this was the predecessor of Xinghui Building.
Old man Zou, who saw his son's outstanding ability, was both angry and extremely proud of his only son, and the relationship between the father and son was slightly eased because of the growth of Xinghui, but he still couldn't stop the rest of the Zou family from eyeing him.
Zou Yi has never returned to his family's villa since he lived with Xu Yang, and this time he came back for the first time after more than two months.
The Zou family's villa is located in the suburbs of T City, the entire villa area covers a wide area and the environment is quiet, the surrounding greenery is good, the safety is high, and the price per square meter is really staggering.
When Zou Yi arrived, it was already two hours later, the door to the villa was closed, and from the hollowed-out wrought iron room, you could see the lush greenery in the courtyard and the rattan swings placed in the shade.
The cobblestone path at the entrance of the house is littered with wisteria petals planted by my mother, and a gentle breeze blows in the face, bringing a rich fragrance that fills the surroundings.
It seems that nothing has changed.
The doorbell rang, and soon the aunt of the family opened the iron door and welcomed him in.
"Xiao Yi is back, and Mrs. was still talking about making you something delicious at noon. ”
The nanny aunt has been in the Zou family for fifteen years, Zou Yi's father was busy with work, his mother was busy with socializing, and Zou Yi, who was still in middle school, had been taken care of by her, which also made the two more intimate than others.
Zou Yi walked through the lawn in front of the house to the interior, and as soon as he pushed open the heavy door, he saw his mother sitting in the living room and the little aunt he hadn't seen for a long time.
The five brothers of Old Man Zou died young, so they became very accommodating to the remaining three younger brothers, which also led to the development of the three brothers very different.
The third is ruthless and the fourth is greedy, there is only one fifth, born romantic and free, resolutely gave up the family business to pursue poetry and distance, and met the cold but kind treasure shop daughter in the rose capital when he was poor, and finally harvested his dream man after playing the ancient capital dream man for three hundred nights.
This person is the little aunt who is most familiar with Zou Yi, French-Chinese He Lan.
The two people who were chatting in the living room stopped talking at the same time as soon as they saw Zou Yi enter the door, and Zou's mother was of course very happy to see her son, but when she thought of what the third uncle and her husband said, she couldn't help but darken her face again.
"You still know to come back!"
After Zou Yi entered the door, he instinctively wanted to loosen his tie, but immediately remembered that this was not his own residence, so he had to hold back.
Hearing Zou's mother ask, he put down the computer, smiled at his mother and said, "I want to eat the sweet and sour fish you made." ”
Zou's mother snorted, "You haven't liked sweets since you were a child, and you knew you were making me happy when you heard it." Having said that, his face was noticeably better.
The nanny aunt, who was still busy in the kitchen, said at the right time, "Madam, the fish has been processed, and if you cook it now, you should be ready to eat it at lunch." ”
Zou's mother didn't like preaching, although she was shocked by her son's support for a man, she still decided to hand it over to her husband to solve it, so she no longer blamed Zou Yi, and responded to the kitchen, "I know, I'll go over." ”
Zou Yi saw his mother walking away, so he turned around and greeted He Lan on the sofa and said, "When did the little aunt come, and there is no news from my uncle?"
He Lan is a young woman with three-dimensional facial features, with an aggressive beauty, she was born with black and smooth black hair, which is tied up with only a leather rope on weekdays, and is casual and free
Hearing Zou Yi's words, He Lan propped his forehead and said disapprerovingly, "He is a prodigal son, and if he insists on living in a corner, he can only lose both, I have understood this since the day I let go of Yiqiē and eloped with him." ”
Zou Yi showed a hint of surprise, "But I heard that he seems to have come back, and he also made a documentary in Kangaroo Country." ”
"Really?" Helan smiled gently, "then he's dead." ”
Zou Yi chuckled and said, "In exchange, please ask my little aunt to do me a favor for a while." ”
He Lan turned his head to look at him, revealing an expression that was indeed so, "You kid...... I just know what happened, so I'll be relieved for a while. ”
Zou Yi said, "With the help of the little aunt, this big drama will definitely be able to sing exquisitely......
He Lan glanced at the nephew, "Don't compliment me, show your hand for a while." ”
Zou Yi nodded slightly, "Okay, I've learned a few new ones recently." ”
He Lan lifted her eyelids in some surprise, "It's rare......"
Zou Yi smiled and explained, "The one in my family also likes sweets. ”
He Lan narrowed her eyes, took a sip of the black tea on the coffee table, and teased, "It seems that I am stained with the light of my future nephew and daughter-in-law." ”
Zou Yi's expression remained unchanged, and he said sincerely, "It is also thanks to your careful teaching and teaching over the years that I can pursue people with this attainment." ”
He Lan glanced at the man beside him who was already two heads taller than him, and raised his hand to raise the teacup, "The eldest nephew is so scheming, he tied me to the boat in a few words." ”
Zou Yi bent down and picked up the teapot to fill the cup, and then said calmly, "I just want to live peacefully with the people I love." ”
He Lan gently blew away the curling heat from the mouth of the cup, she held the insulated teacup, and said slowly, "Your identity and the power you control are a double-edged sword, it will not only give, but also deprive, but if you are strong enough, you can find the balance you want." ”
Because Zou's mother insisted on waiting for her son to come back before cooking, lunch on this day was more than an hour later than usual. After the meal, Old Man Zou was helped down the spiral ladder by his nephew Zou Ming, followed by the sad Third Master Zou.
The moment he saw Zou Yi, Zou Yu's face immediately turned pale, and he shouted angrily, "Rebel, you still have the face to step into the Zou family again!"
Zou Yi didn't take a seat, but stood aside and said calmly, "I heard my sister say that you are sick, so come back and have a look." ”
Zou Yu stomped the cane in his hand and said angrily, "Look at me, I see you wish I was dead!
Zou Ming next to him hurriedly smoothed his heart with his hand, and said, "Uncle, don't be angry, Brother Yi must have come back to apologize to you for admitting your mistakes, don't you believe him?"
Zou Laosan in the back also fanned the flames and said, "They are all fathers and sons, and it is impossible to make a fuss because of a man who came out to sell, isn't it." ”
False consolation is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire at such a time of tension.
Old Man Zou listened to his brother's nephew's words and was even more angry, he raised his crutches, raised his hand and hit Zou Yi, "It's better to kill you today!"
Zou Yi lowered his eyelids slightly, covering the sharp waves surging in his eyes, and he was now in place, and a stick from the wind hit his clothes with a trembling muffled sound.
The pain in his back spread after a period of numbness, Zou Yi's expression remained unchanged, and he said in a calm tone, "I am relieved to see that my father is still old and strong." ”
Zou Laosan saw that Zou Yi was still like no one else after being beaten with a stick, so he naturally refused to give up, so he said to the old man Zou who was angry, "Okay, big brother, Xiaoyi is now the boss of the company, how can he say that he will fight." ”
Zou Yu raised his crutches, "Boss, look at what he does like a boss should do......! It's better to kill Qingjing!"
Zou Ming hurriedly said, "Uncle, I see that Brother Yi is just a ghost this time, and you will change it as soon as you get engaged to him." ”
Of course, Zou's mother also hoped that her son could get married and have children earlier, so she said, "Your Uncle Qu's youngest daughter is three years younger than you, educated, and gentle and beautiful. ”
Hearing this, Old Man Zou also calmed down a little, "Your mother is right, I have seen that girl from the Qu family, it is really good, you can move around, and if you can, you will get engaged at the end of the year." ”
Zou Yi raised his head and said loudly, "I won't get married." ”
Old Man Zou was trembling with anger, "What are you talking about! You rebel!
Zou Laosan said, "Xiaoyi, look at you, why don't you hurry up and bow your head and admit your mistakes!"
Zou Yi said, "Third uncle, let's stop in moderation." ”
Zou Laosan said angrily, "What are you talking about? Do you still have an elder like me in your eyes? It's all the pickled stuff outside that taught you badly!"
The corners of Zou Yi's mouth hooked up a cold sneer, "Pickled...... Can you say that about him?"
Zou Laosan was so angry that he almost jumped to his feet, he pointed at Zou Yi and shouted, "It's the opposite! It's really the opposite! I can't control this matter, I don't care! I ......don't care!"
In this matter, He Lan, who was calmly watching the play for a while, walked slowly to his side and said lightly, "Zou Wang, the dragon will be angry if he touches the reverse scales, where are Xiao Yi's reverse scales, can you guess it?"
"What the hell are you trying to say!"
"You are a wise person, some things will be just suitable, don't end up being smart but being mistaken by cleverness, and the gains outweigh the losses. ”
Zou Wang was silent for a moment, the resentment in his eyes flashed, and then returned to the heartache for his juniors.
But the old man Zou was indignant, "Very good! Okay, very good! I see that you can't wait for me to die and want to take over the Zou family! I, the old man, will make room for you now!"
Ignoring everyone's obstruction, Old Man Zou threw down his crutches and walked to the courtyard angrily.
Zou Yi immediately followed, but through the wrought-iron hollow door, he saw at a glance the handsome young man who walked out of the main house opposite......
