The study is located on the same floor as the bedroom, and the study in Xie Dong can be said to be the seat of the core power of the Xie family, and many of the Xie family's major policies and decisions were born there.

Before he could reach the place, a low voice of discussion came from the study. There are rumors in the outside world, some say that Xie Dongliao is dead, some say that he is in a coma in bed, all kinds of things, and there are all kinds of things.

Some people even asked Ning Zeyu for confirmation, because they all knew that Ning Zeyu had always been the Xie family's family doctor, and he was definitely one of the people who knew the situation best. Ning Zeyu is not a person with a big tongue, even if someone with a very good relationship asks him, he just smiles, leaving an unfathomable expression, let them guess.

When Xie Tian walked into the study and told the representatives of the major families that the old man would come over soon to meet everyone, many people still didn't believe that Xie Dongliao would come over, until Xie Dongliao appeared outside the door of the study in good spirits.

"Damn, look at this dragon horse spirit, does the old man look like a person who is going to die? Who the made this rumor!"

The representatives of the major families saw that Xie Dongliao was straight and his steps were powerful, and many people were a little disappointed.

If Old Man Xie goes, the power of the Xie family will inevitably be weakened, which proves that his family has a chance to grow stronger. But Old Man Xie is now good, and of course the statement that the Xie family is declining does not exist.

"Lao Xie, I'm relieved to see you like this. ”

An old man sat on a chair behind the desk, that was Xie Dongliao's position, since he could sit there, it proved that his status was absolutely transcendent.

"Old man, how did I alarm you!"

Xie Dongliao walked forward and held the hand of the old man sitting there. Luo Xu could see that the two of them had true feelings.

"When the children received the news that you were not doing well, I could rest assured that they wanted to come and see you, despite their objections. ”

The old man who spoke was the previous helmsman of the four major families in the provincial capital, named Zhuang Hengtong.

"Lao Zhuang, the older generation has withered, and there are only a few of our brothers left, how can I bear to leave you behind? As soon as I leave, you will lose a chess friend, and you will not cry for three days!"

Xie Dongliao laughed.

Zhuang Hengtong sighed and said, "Old Xie, my body is not as good as you, I'm afraid I'm going to go soon." ”

"Dad, don't say such bad things. ”

Next to Zhuang Hengtong stood a woman wearing a black peony embroidered cheongsam, in her forties, elegant and dignified, and her eyebrows were very similar to Zhuang Ziqing, it was Zhuang Ziqing's mother Yu Qiubai.

"Qiubai, take good care of your father-in-law, as soon as he leaves, I don't have anyone to play chess. Xie Dongliao said with a smile.

"Please rest assured Uncle Xie, Qiubai will serve his father-in-law with all his heart. Yu Qiubai responded with a smile.

"Lao Zhuang, let me greet the other guests. ”

Xie Dongliao turned around and looked at the other people standing in the study, these people were big figures in politics in addition to the representatives of the major families in the provincial capital. It's all gathered together, and it's so rare to see this one.

"Congratulations to Old Man Xie for a long life!"

I don't know who in the crowd shouted this, and everyone else also shouted, as if today was Xie Dongliao's ninetieth birthday banquet.

Luo Xu glanced at it and saw two acquaintances in the crowd, but the relationship between these two and him was not very good.

"Old man, this is a five-hundred-year-old ginseng that I treasured, and I specially brought it here to replenish your body. ”

A young man squeezed out of the crowd, dressed in a black suit, black leather shoes, and even his shirt and tie were black, this outfit was the standard funeral dress. This person held a delicate carved mahogany wooden box and presented an old mountain ginseng.

"Tang Kai!"

Xie Ziyu, who was standing next to Xie Dongliao, said coldly: "What you're wearing is really dark!"

Tang Kai smiled, he had already gotten the exact news, saying that the old man of the Xie family had returned to the West Heaven, so he wore such a body, but when he arrived here, he found that the old man was not dead at all, not only was he not dead, but he was still alive, but fortunately, he made preparations with both hands and brought an old ginseng.

"Young man, I see that your face is pale, and your eye sockets are black, and I know at a glance that you are weak. I won't keep the old ginseng, thank you for the kindness of your parents for me, you still take back the whole old hen and stew a pot of old ginseng hen soup to make up for it. ”

Xie Dongliao's mouth taught people a lesson, but it was not ordinary, and he immediately saw Tang Kai's face blue and white, and he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.

The person who scolded him was Xie Dongliao, who was as old as his grandfather, no matter how arrogant Tang Kai was, he wouldn't dare to go crazy here.

Just when Tang Kai was embarrassed, a woman's voice came from the crowd.

"Xiao Kai, don't you thank Old Man Xie for your concern? Go to bed early at night in the future, don't always stay up late to read and study, you work so hard, is it possible that you want to be a model for the young people of other families?"

A woman holding a Persian cat walked out of the crowd, it was Tang Liwan. She wore a mink coat, which set off her graceful and luxurious temperament. Lianbu moved lightly, walked to the front, and bent down slightly at Old Man Xie.

"Seeing that the old man is safe, the younger generation is relieved. The Lin family is withered, only orphans and widows remain, and Wan'er is grateful to have been taken care of by the old man all these years!"

Xie Dongliao said: "Xiaowan, the Lin family can survive to this day, it is all your credit. Among the many juniors, you are the one I am most optimistic about. ”

Xie Dongliao did not hesitate to praise Tang Liwan at all, a woman can support a family that is about to collapse, how much ability does it take!

Wan'er was ashamed. Tang Liwan glanced at Luo Xu, who was standing next to Xie Dongliao, and asked with a smile, "Old Xie, who is this?"

"A friend of my granddaughter Ziyu. Xie Dongliao said.

"This is my boyfriend!" Xie Ziyu said proudly: "He was the one who saved my grandfather." ”

Tang Liwan looked at Luo Xu and smiled slightly. Luo Xu felt an incomparable chill from that smile, and couldn't help but shiver.

"Young man, what a beautiful blessing!" Tang Liwan and Tang Kai both sneered.

Luo Xu smiled back and didn't say anything.

"Xie Lao!"

At this time, a middle-aged fat man of medium height squeezed to the front, holding a gilded invitation card in his hand, "Xie Lao, you are safe and sound, it's really good! Next month's Federation of Industry and Commerce, please preside, I hope you don't refuse!"

"Mayor Zhang, can't you let go of my old bones?" Xie Dongliao sighed and waved his hand, "No, no, let's find a young man." ”
