When Xiao Zhan returned to Xiao's house, Zhu Shan was still explaining what Xiao Can did not return in time. Bayi Middle School? Wenwang? (a) ?. (8) 8?1 (1) Z?(8) Although .COM had to come back because of her husband's 'majesty', when Zhu Shan saw the returning Xiao Zhan, there was still a slight look of resistance in her eyes.

In her heart, the original 'harmonious' family has become so 'fragmented' because of the arrival of this 'unpleasant guest'.

Xiao Zhan, who didn't explain too much head-on, first went to the kitchen to 'talk' to his grandmother. After Xiao Lao's several 'calls', he sat back in front of the chessboard.

At this time, the closed red door was pushed open again. Xiao Can, who did not leave his daughter-in-law in the event of an incident, but took the initiative to return to the Xiao family after the incident, crossed the threshold.

Zhu Shan, who hurriedly stepped forward, persuaded her husband's angry reprimand. And Xiao Can, who had a bald face, just walked to the front of the alley and was about to admit his mistake to Xiao Lao, but the old man said directly to him without turning his head: "Go to the ancestral hall and kneel." ”

After saying this seriously, it seemed that he had caught the 'loophole' of Xiao Zhan's chess, and immediately said in a different tone: "General." ”

After saying this, he laughed a few times with a 'haha' of 'winning the game'. Such a 'worlds apart' tone really aroused Zhu Shan's dissatisfaction.

However, this time, it was Xiao Can, who was usually 'submissive'.

"Grandpa, although I know that it makes you very sad that you didn't come back in the first place just now...... But there are some words that I have been holding in my heart for a long time, and today I will not vomit unpleasantly. ”

"For a long time, our Xiao family has been a 'chicken rib' existence in Kyoto. Everybody knows you, but everybody can point fingers at you. I live in this envied 'circle', but I live every day like a year. I'm cowardly, I'll admit it. Is this my fault? I've been bullied since I was a child, and you've always been on the sidelines. ”

"Everyone else has their parents who take care of it. What about me? Only the part of being beaten and angry! After a long time, I didn't dare to speak up, I didn't dare to express my own opinion. Bigger, I became the target of their teasing. Why? Because no matter how great my sin is, my family will never stand up for me. ”

"When I stepped into society, I had a decent job. But what is this job in my circle? I don't want to live a normal 9-to-5 life, and I've expressed my thoughts to you and my father more than once. But what about you? Just want me to guard the so-called 'iron rice bowl'. ”

"Yes, I have no dignity in the Liu family. is a son-in-law who can be 'bullied'. But grandpa, do you know, since I married Liu Yan and became the son-in-law of the Liu family, no one in this circle dares to point fingers at me anymore. All this is not because I am a descendant of the Xiao family, but because I am the son-in-law of the Liu family. ”

Xiao Can, who was kneeling in front of the alley, expounded his depression with a handful of snot and tears. Zhu Shan, who was not far away, accompanied her son to 'cry and cry'.

Xiao Peng, who was standing on the side, lowered his head with a sigh, and Mrs. Xiao, who was cooking, stood there motionless.

"Huzi told me that men have to be dignified, and I know that! But in today's society, where does dignity come from without money and power? I just want to keep my head held high. ”

Hearing Xiao Can's last sentence, Xiao Lao turned his head to look at his grandson.

"On the day you became an adult, I wrote you a painting called 'Broad view and appointment, thick and thin'. If you really understood, you wouldn't have so many complaints and your 'deformed' ambitions today. ”

"Watching you being bullied? Or even pretend to be ignorant? Xiao Can, why didn't you fight back when they bullied you? At that time, I really wanted to answer such a phone call: Lao Xiao, your grandson called everyone in my family. Instead of: I'm sorry, Lao Xiao, my grandson is ignorant and beat your child again. ”

"The rhetoric of the two phone calls is different, but my answer must be the same – it doesn't matter! Yes, if you hit someone, I will say, 'It's okay', and if you are beaten, I will also say, 'It's okay'. Is your 'cowardice' really the result of our indifference? Is your current 'toughness' really 'toughness'? ”

"The toughness of the fox and the fake tiger is like an egg wrapped in Phnom Penh. It usually looks hard and dazzling enough, but it can't withstand a fierce pressure from an external force. When I was bullied, I didn't think about how to find my parents to get back on the field, and I shouldn't have cowardly choices to swallow my anger. Iron also needs its own hard ...... What the family can only give can be called 'background', and what they have beaten down is called 'Jiangshan'. ”

Speaking of this, Old Man Xiao, who was propping himself up with one hand on the corner of the table, looked at Xiao Can, who had forgotten to cry, shook his head and continued to add: "Put you still in 'Ji. The department that offends people only hopes that you can become independent quickly, become truly strong in your heart, and stop blindly trying to take shortcuts. ”

"But the result? When you meet the girl of the Liu family, you think she is your 'noble'. In recent years, the so-called 'scenery' in your mouth has actually been consuming the 'brave heart' that you just built up a few years ago. Life is a process of giving and giving, you get wealth, but you lose your dignity. ”

"It seems to me that this is a cycle of cause and effect. People say that the rise and fall of a family is not based on how much ability the children and grandchildren have before the age of 30, but how much burden they can carry after the age of 30. You envy how many things other parents have left for their juniors and how long they have paved......"

When Xiao Lao said this, he sneered twice, crossed the threshold of the alley, bent down and squatted in front of Xiao Can, who was kneeling there, and said word by word: "At this level that you are in contact with now, what others have...... I have both your grandfather and I. Not only yes, but also very solid and rich. But can you bear these things with your heart and shoulders now? ”

"There's a rock in front of you, and you've been 'self-defeating' trying to get around it, thinking that if you just get around it, you'll get around it. But there are more and more stones in front of you, and you are tired and more afraid. You have thought of a shortcut...... But are shortcuts really easy to take? If you learn to move rocks from the beginning, the journey may be a little tougher, but you can move forward and backward with ease. And now? Are you used to the absence of wind and waves, and can you still withstand the undercurrents? ”

Xiao Can, whose eyes were red, looked at his grandfather in a daze. The grandfather and grandson have really never had such a heart-to-heart relationship for so many years.

"Go to the ancestral hall and kneel!" Old Man Xiao, who got up, waved his hand weakly with his back to Xiao Can.

When Xiao Can slowly stood up and was about to walk to the ancestral hall inside, Xiao Lao suddenly said, "Xiao Can, have you really been beautiful?" To others, to yourself, to this country, have you really achieved the 'scenery'? ”

Xiao Can, who heard this, loosened his shoulders a little. Suddenly, he felt the weight of his steps. It was so heavy that it made it difficult for him to walk!

Old Man Xiao, who was sitting in front of the chessboard, said thoughtfully: "I should have listened to your grandfather and threw him directly to Womagang." ”

Xiao Daguan, who smiled but did not speak, continued to study the game in the chess game. Old Man Xiao, who took the lead, although he was a 'general', was only 'tentative'.

The grandfather and grandson did not decide the winner until dinner was served. During this period, Xiao Peng should have revealed some of Xiao Zhan's 'deeds' to Zhu Shan intentionally or unintentionally, which made his aunt no longer be as 'casual' as she was at the beginning when she looked at Xiao Zhan again.

The Liu family is really incomparable to the Zhan family who is rooted in Miao Hong!

At dinner, Xiao Zhan accompanied his grandfather to drink a few glasses of wine. Of course, as far as he drinks so-called less, he also has eight taels of stomach. At the dinner table, Xiao Zhan and Xiao Lao had a very happy conversation. But it's mostly a topic of local customs! Even when it comes to more 'sensitive' events, they are all dumb riddles. The two tacitly point to the end!

At eight o'clock, Xiao Zhan's mobile phone really rang. If you look at the number, it's Kyoto local. Smiling, he answered the phone, and an unfamiliar voice came from inside.

"Jing'an Club, dare to come?"

Xiao Daguan, who had a cigarette in his mouth, replied with a smile: "I came from the countryside, I don't know the address." Just give it to me right away. It's best to call everyone you can, and I won't be able to get to Kyoto for a few days. There's still a lot to do! ”

"You're so arrogant......"

"After a long time of contact, you will appear, I am a low-key person." After saying this, Xiao Zhan hung up the phone casually. And Zhu Shan, who was originally cleaning up the mess on the dinner table, subconsciously looked up at Xiao Zhan. It seemed that he wanted to see some worry or nervousness on his face, but in fact he was calm, as one could imagine.

Xiao Peng, who also set his eyes on Xiao Zhan, hesitated for a long time before he spoke: "You don't need to find someone or anything, in case you ...... it"

Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Old Man Xiao, who was the first to laugh, grinned and said, "Don't worry about Huzi, let's worry about them." When you are old, you have the habit of going to bed early, that tiger don't forget to come back for breakfast tomorrow morning, your grandma's corn soup is delicious. ”

"Definitely!" When he said this, Xiao Zhan, who got up, went up and helped Xiao Lao into the back room. When I came out, I had already received the specific address of Jinghua Club on my mobile phone.

Xiao Daguan, who only meowed at a glance and remembered it in his heart, wore a coat and waved to Xiao Peng and Zhu Shan to leave. When passing by the kitchen, I lied to my grandmother that I was going to meet friends.

When Xiao Zhan's back disappeared from everyone's field of vision, Zhu Shan subconsciously asked: "Huzi's alias is really 'Xiao Zhan'?" The Xiao Zhan who made the Zhan family bow their heads? ”

"This kind of thing, the old man will not joke." Xiao Peng replied softly.

"That'...... Dapeng, let me ask you something! It is rumored in the financial world that 'Xiao Zhuge 'is named 'Xiao Shan', is it your sister 'Shanshan'? Zhu Shan, who has the same name and different surname as her mother-in-law, began to use her imagination and speculate boldly.

"I don't know! At that time, I only heard that Shanshan went back to the village with her brother-in-law to farm. I also inquired with the old man about the specifics, and he just replied with a smile: Shanshan is blessed. He didn't say anything, so I didn't ask deeply. ”

Zhu Shan, who heard this, quickly took out her mobile phone after her eyes rolled around. Go to the search engine interface and type in the word 'AIIB'.

Hundreds of news ...... the two of them were presented. The photos used by the media are all of a 'graceful' woman. When Xiao Peng and Zhu Shan saw this photo, they were stupid.

At this moment, they finally understood what the old man said to Xiao Can today-he has what others have, and he is very rich and solid.

It is estimated that in Huaxia, there is no one more solid and wealthy than his Xiao family.
