Chapter 6 Ready to Fly

Old Don took a sip of water, a few wrinkles appeared on his forehead, as if he recalled some of the past, his deep and clear eyes revealed a little melancholy, a little melancholy, a little melancholy, and the vicissitudes of life after years of wear and tear were vividly presented in front of Jerry's eyes.

Old Tang En said in a low voice: "The old Taoist priest who taught me this kung fu back then was a distant uncle (bai) of our Tang family, also surnamed Tang.

At that time, the warlords were divided, and the people everywhere were in chaos, and the trouble in the north was particularly serious, and the old Taoist priest fled from the north, and he was already over 60 years old at that time, because he was a relative of our family, so he lived at home.

In order to let me learn literature and martial arts without distractions, he took me to hide in the deep mountains and old forests, and lived there for ten years.

When I came down the mountain at the age of sixteen, he was the same age as I am now, but he was still light and healthy, and he was getting younger and younger, in the words of his ancestors. More than ten years later, before your Chinese grandmother and I were ready to go abroad, we took the time to go back to him, only to find that the Taoist temple had collapsed and no one lived in it for a long time. ”

Speaking of this, Old Tang En's sighs and emotion were unobstructed, obviously, not finding the old Taoist priest was a regret that he could not let go of in his life.

Jerry said softly: "The past is irretrievable after all, cherishing the present is what we should do as people who are alive, grandpa, in a few years, the political situation will ease up, and I will accompany you back to China for a walk." ”

"Hmm... Good!"

Old Tang En smiled and said: "When the time comes, take your second and third grandmothers with you, they have been away for too long, almost fifty years, and you should go back to see it." ”

He then said: "When people are old, they like to chatter, and they talk and talk away, that is, you can make me talk and can't stop."

Your second and third uncles are good at doing business, and they make great money, but when it comes to honoring the elderly, they are far behind you. Those two rabbit cubs were completely corrupted by US imperialism, and they were full of money when they opened and closed their mouths, and they all fell into the eyes of money, and they smelled of copper!"

"Hahaha!" Jerry couldn't help but laugh, laughing back and forth, and couldn't stop laughing.

"Grandpa, you're not right, in fact, I also like Franklin, and I'm thinking about how to make money these days. Jerry felt that the old man's words were biased, and he should have said justice for the two uncles.

Old Don smiled: "It's a good thing for young people to think about how to make money, and grandpa was the same when he was young. You're going to be eighteen years old soon, and to be honest, I'm really reluctant to let you live alone, why don't you think about it again, how about living with grandpa?"

Jerry was silent for a while, and said, "I am reluctant to leave you and my grandmothers, but our Towne family is no longer an insignificant Chinese family, not to mention that there are many family members, and we need to consider the surrounding environment and the feelings of other relatives in the family for many things." ”

Old Donn nodded lightly and smiled approvingly: "Very good! Now I believe that you have really grown up and have the ability to live independently, so I can rest assured." Since you have thought about it, then grandpa will not hide it from you, about your future life, I talked to old Paul, everything is handled according to the old rules. ”

Jerry was a little nervous after hearing this, and hurriedly asked, "Can I know in advance how much startup money my family will give me?"

"Of course, after three months, your start-up capital will show up on the financial statements circulated within the family. Nothing can be said to others, our old Tang family does not do sneaky things, except for your cousin, you are the first adult man of the third generation of the family, so the arrangement for you is the model of the third generation of men, and everyone else will do the same when they become adults. ”

When it came to business, the warm smile on Old Donn's face quickly converged, and his usual vigorous and resolute style was once again revealed.

"When your father started his business, I gave him 10 million US dollars in start-up capital, your second uncle was 15 million, and your third uncle was 20 million.

When your two aunts started their own businesses, I gave them 50 million each, because this money is not only the start-up capital, but also the dowry of their marriage.

In your third generation, the situation has changed, because I am still the head of the family, so I opened a 30 million start-up fund for your cousin on behalf of the family. She is the daughter of your second uncle, so your second uncle also prepared a dowry of 20 million for her, which is exactly the same as when your two aunts started their business. ”

After a pause, Old Tang looked at Jerry playfully, and smiled: "Your situation is different from your cousin, she is a daughter, and she has reached the age of talking about marriage, so your second uncle should equip her with a dowry in advance; ”

Saying that, Old Don smiled meaningfully, "Your start-up capital is only 30 million US dollars, aren't you disappointed? At the end of the year, this manor will also be recovered, if you don't want to live with your mother, Little Done, I think you may have to find a real estate agent to find a place to settle for you in advance." Hehehe!"

Jerry also smiled, got up to add a glass of water to Old Donne, and said with a smile: "Really slammed the door, I won't play with you in the future." ”

"Hahaha!" Old Donn laughed heartily, "when you lose only your pants, you will come back to play with me, in fact, I have a plan, when you come back, I will prepare a grand welcome banquet for you." ”

Speaking of this, Old Don patted Jerry's shoulder and said a little sadly: "I'm not sarcastic, it's all true, I hope you come back soon, just like when you were a child."

However, when the eagle grows up, it needs to learn to fly and find its own piece of the sky, so grandpa can't stop you from growing up, and he can't selfishly tie you to his side. Go fly, little Donne, you're no worse than old Donne!"

With that, Old Donn got up and left the table and walked towards the stairs.

"Hi Old Donn, Kung Fu...... Haven't you finished yet?"

Jerry's eyes were red, faintly flashing with tears, and the moment he shouted "Old Donn", he really recognized this lovely and respectable grandfather in his heart, and decided that he was his grandfather, and he was in this life.

Hearing the affectionate shout behind him, Old Tangen's body shook, his feet shook slightly, and the luster in his eyes was turning.

He didn't turn around, because this long-lost emotion was very foreign to him, and he was a little unaccustomed to it, and vaguely remembered that the last time he cried was at Jerry's father's funeral after the plane crash seventeen years ago, and since then, Old Don has never shed a single tear.

"Little Tang, if you want to fly away and live forever, then you should wake up, the old Tang family doesn't have such a thing as a fantasy. Sixty years ago, when I joined the army, it was the most difficult period of the Anti-Japanese War, when the war was almost filled by human lives, and the recruits were almost all cannon fodder, but I not only survived, but also performed many miraculous feats.

The United States is not a paradise, and the Chinese are not popular here, but I led a group of old brothers to make their mark on this land and create the Donn family.

Send you a sentence 'Wanguan family wealth is invincible to a skill', it is the kung fu handed down by the ancestors!

Only when you are strong can you be fearless and move forward bravely, and the others are all local chickens and dogs. Of course, you have to use your brain to do things, and you have to know how to hide your muscles, because it is your last hole card!" When the words fell, Old Tang had already walked to the second floor, pushed the door and entered the bedroom.

Early the next morning, the elder Tangne and Jerry's grandmother took a special plane back to New York, and Jerry's mother went to France immediately, and the film and television seminar would last for a month.

The vast manor suddenly became empty, deserted and quiet.
