Chapter 034: Father's Study
Establishing such a luxurious villa complex in the heart of the city is extremely luxurious. Here are the merchants and celebrities of Suhe Province, and more importantly, this garden is the property of the Xia family. When such a villa area was built, Xia Yunbai withstood huge pressure and directly made a decision, so that there is now a rich area built around Bitian.
In fact, this is just an opportunity, because Sunan City even said that the entire Suhe Province needs such a circle.
Villa No. 6 in Bitian International Garden is Xia Ruxuan's home.
This three-storey villa, including the garden, has an area of nearly 800 square meters, which is absolutely luxurious in the center of southern Jiangsu, where every inch of land is at a premium.
The decoration style is classical European style, and all the furniture is flown in directly from Italy, which is very valuable.
"Xuan Shao, you're back." The car drove into the gate of Villa No. 6, and the housekeeper Wu Bo stood respectfully beside the car, with a kind smile, and helped Xia Ruxuan open the door.
"Uncle Wu, is my uncle here today?" Xia Ruxuan asked after getting out of the car, in his heart, the memory of the last time he came here seemed like a century had passed. "Where's my father?"
He just suddenly wanted to see his father, and he had nothing else to do.
"The master and Mayor Mo are in the study, he asked you to go directly to the study to find him when you come back," Wu Bo smiled, like a blooming daisy, a typical middle-aged man who has been a housekeeper for many years. "Aunt Shen came back this morning and has been busy making soup in the kitchen, you can go to the restaurant to drink soup first. Today's pot is your favorite tea tree mushroom pork rib soup. β
"Okay." Xia Ruxuan nodded in response, the lunch he ate with Liu Yi didn't eat much, Liu Yi chewed slowly, and Xia Ruxuan naturally followed suit.
"Speaking of which, I've been used to Aunt Shen's craftsmanship over the years, and I don't know what to do when I leave home in the future." Xia Ruxuan suddenly sighed. This is true, for many years after that, Xia Ruxuan's food was a problem, and he had raised his appetite since he was a child.
Wu Bo smiled: "It's too early to talk about leaving home." β
"It's not early, I'm nineteen." Xia Ruxuan raised his head and suddenly sighed.
It directly made Uncle Wu stunned for a moment. This tone of emotion is more like the lament of those who have been in the world for a long time. "I don't remember much, my uncle was transferred last year, right?" Xia Ruxuan suddenly remembered something, turned around and asked.
Xia Ruxuan's brother-in-law, named Mo Nanwei, was the deputy mayor of Sunan City in charge of urban construction at the time, and he held a deputy position at the department and bureau level. This year, he was not yet forty years old, and he had already reached the position of deputy mayor of southern Jiangsu, the provincial capital of Suhe Province, which can be said to have a bright future.
"Yes." Uncle Wu was stunned, Xuan Shao, who was usually there, never cared about this.
Xia Ruxuan nodded.
He remembered that less than two years later, because of some political events, Mo Nan was transferred out of the rich land of southern Jiangsu and went to a poor and remote prefecture-level city in the northwest province to become the mayor.
On the surface, he became a prince on the ruling side, but it was tantamount to exile in a change of direction - southern Jiangsu was trying to be promoted to a vice-provincial city, and it would not be a few years before Mo Nanwei, who had risen to the top, would also be promoted from the deputy hall to the main hall.
And Mo Nanwei, who took office in the new place, wasted a lot of time in the open and secret struggle with the secretary of the municipal party committee because the local political forces had already taken shape, and then did nothing for many years.
Until the age of fifty, he is still on the way from the department and bureau level to the provincial and ministerial level, and he can basically declare that he is hopeless from the inner circle of higher powers.
In the following years, with the death of Xia Ruxuan's grandfather, his grandfather was seriously ill and admitted to the hospital, and the energy of the huge shelter network woven by the older generation for the Xia family gradually dissipated.
At that time, the biggest problem faced by the Xia family was that the older generation was completely evacuated, and the younger generation rarely had the pillars that could stand up and carry the handle, and the entire Xia family was supported by his father.
The Xia family, who holds countless interests in their hands, has simply become a piece of fragrant bread in the eyes of countless people, just like a child holding a cake, how not to attract the covetousness of countless people.
In this way, all the family history has become traceable after being strung together.
If a few people who could help Xia Yunbai back then, Xia Yunbai's ability would not have been able to support him for many years.
Maybe in the end, it was because he disappointed him too much that he didn't even have the ** to continue the struggle.
Xia Ruxuan sighed softly, he didn't understand the stakes back then. has repeatedly let the heart surname, but it is still with the anger of a child's heart surname.
Uncle Wu's face had a perennial kindness, and he looked at the young master whose expression had been changing without saying a word.
And after the silence, Xia Ruxuan's faint sigh fell on Uncle Wu's ears, and he began to have a faint impression. After not paying attention for a while, that naΓ―ve Xuan Shao seemed to be suddenly gone.
This is undoubtedly a good thing for the entire Xia family.
For Xia Ruxuan, the nineteenth age of the previous life was a watershed in his life, and he began to degenerate and degenerate from here; And in this life, he believes that the age of nineteen is also a watershed, although he doesn't know how far he can go, but at least he must have a certain direction, otherwise no matter how hard he tries, it is useless.
After drinking the soup, Xia Ruxuan came to the door of his father's study and knocked lightly.
"Come in." This year, his father's voice seemed full of energy, which made Xia Ruxuan think of how fast his father had aged in those years.
I remember that my father let himself into the study and talked to him only a handful of times, often on important matters.
The study is not small, with a large table and three tall bookcases standing side by side against the wall.
There are huge floor-to-ceiling windows with one-way glass, giving you a panoramic view of the garden from the study, and from the outside it looks like a huge glass curtain wall.
In addition, there was a coffee table surrounded by three guest sofas, on which was placed a valuable ashtray, Xia Ruxuan remembered that when he was arguing with his father about the engagement, he was grabbed by himself and smashed it against the floor-to-ceiling window, and it shattered with a loud bang. Then he snatched the door himself.
That was also the last time Xia Ruxuan walked into and walked out of his father's study in his memory.
Pushing open the door, Uncle Mo Nanwei leaned on the sofa with Erlang's legs, and lit a cigarette with a lingering cigarette in his hand, with a pensive face. Father sat upright at his desk, fingers crossed against the table.
This year, my father's appearance was sword-eyed and heroic.
There is still a bit of personability in his eyebrows, containing the charm and majesty unique to a mature and successful man, although he is over forty years old, I believe that even if he is in his thirties, there are still people who believe it. There is no twilight at all a few years later.
Xia Ruxuan felt a little guilty, he knew in his heart that his father would suddenly get so old in those years because of himself.
And the uncle sitting on the side is still in good spirits at the moment, he has a standard Chinese face, quite a few times the momentum of strategizing officialdom, with the current situation, young but already in a high position, it is definitely not difficult to rush up with momentum.
He was also talking to Xia Yunbai today about the current political situation in southern Jiangsu, although Xia Yunbai is not in politics, but the influence of the old man Xia in southern Jiangsu is much greater than that of the old man of the Mo family.
Mo Lao just has a network of relationships all over the entire Chinese political arena, but if Mo Nan really wants to make achievements in southern Jiangsu, it will definitely be indispensable to the support of the Xia family.
And Mo Nanwei has a very good personal relationship with Xia Yunbai, and at this moment, these two men who are enough to cause an earthquake from all walks of life in southern Jiangsu are silent in the study.
Seeing Xia Ruxuan walk in, Xia Yunbai's somewhat solemn face softened, and he nodded towards Xia Ruxuan, "Sit down." β;
