Chapter 258 [Home]
Lao Tian, Shi Gaofei and the others rushed back to K City with a tired face - since it was speculated that Chen might have returned to normal. He's not in Shanghai...... So. Maybe Chen Xiao ran back to K City!
But that's just a guess. Make a decision after a simple consultation. Lao Tian and Shi Gaofei, as well as Xiao Qing and the fat man, returned to K City to find Chen Xiao. And Zhurong Gonggong and others continued to stay in Shanghai with the rest of the people to search. The main target is to conduct a carpet search of that hospital.
But God just happened to be so coincidental.
Just when Lao Tian and Shi Gaofei and others walked out of the train station exhausted. Lao Tian also assigned the fat man to carry the consignment.
And almost at the same time. Right at the entrance of the train station. Old lady Xiao smiled meaningfully. Two young juniors followed with their bags. And Chen Xiao and Zhang Xiaotao also followed. With the flow of people entering the station ticket gate. Then walk up to the platform. Finally, I stepped into the luxury box car of a train.
The train's destination is: Lingnan Province. The Xiao family's current hometown.
Old Lady Xiao made a very subtle move. He flickered Chen Xiao back to Lingnan. But this thing. But he didn't say hello to Xiao Qing. Not even a single phone call.
The knot was when Xiao Qing followed Lao Tian and others to search hard in K City. Chen had already set off with Old Lady Xiao to her hometown.
K City. Almost all the white and black roads have been mobilized. The little red robe of the underworld received a commission from Xu Ershao. Sprinkled almost all of his men. And jǐng Fangli. Xu Jǐng was also mobilized to help.
But at this time. Chen Xiao has already left K City.
……………………
……………………
Lingnan is a border city. It is close to the sea and the border. But the city where the Xiao family is located. But it is a small and medium-sized city that is not very large in the interior. There are still more than 100 kilometers from the border. In this mountainous province. It's not too remarkable.
Chen Xiao arrived here. It's already three days later. Along. Old lady Xiao has used many methods to convince Chen Xiao that the two are related.
The two descendants of the Xiao family don't know what the old lady has in mind. If it's just a simple confession of ancestors and returning to the ancestors. It seems that the old man doesn't need to be so mysterious—but now the old man's attitude. It's like kidnapping and bringing Chen Xiao back.
The city's train station is much smaller than that in the capital city of a large eastern coastal province like K. But it's pretty clean and tidy.
Out of the station. The car of the Xiao family had already come to greet him. You can see it. The Xiao family has quite a lot of roots in this city. They were greeted by two Benz, which are quite rare in the city. And Chen Xiao, who has been holding back the question mark all the way. followed Mrs. Xiao into the car. After the car went around the city. Chen Xiao found that it was rare to see such high-end cars on the streets of this city.
And more. It is the imprint of the Xiao family in this city.
Along. Passed through the city's busiest shopping street. Old Lady Xiao did not speak. However, the two juniors opened their mouths to introduce some information to Chen Xiao. On several of the busiest commercial streets. all have the Xiao family's industry. Most of them are martial arts halls under the banner of fitness centers.
With the progress of the times. Gone are the days of simply opening martial arts halls and teaching apprentices. The Xiao family's fitness center has formed a chain scale. Most of them have introduced a lot of advanced fitness center leisure concepts. Now in this era. The common people are also more or less martial jīng gods. Most people just want to exercise in their spare time. So these are in the fitness center of the Xiao family. In addition to teaching martial arts. There are also some similar fitness cāo. Yoga. aerobics and more.
But. Striking events. It's just martial arts. There is no karate, taekwondo or anything like that.
Chen Xiao roughly counted. In this small city. There are as many as six fitness gyms in the Xiao family. It occupies various prosperous areas in the southeast, northwest and northwest of the city.
Arguably. to the population and economic base of the local city. Such a scale. Basically, a monopoly can be formed in this industry in the local area.
"Four branches have also opened in the provincial capital. There are also surrounding cities. It's basically our Xiao family's territory. The foreign fitness club is simply untenable. "A young descendant of the Xiao family has some meaning.
Chen Xiao just snorted.
He saw it too. The car was deliberately detouring. Deliberately went around the city in a big circle. I went through every product: all of them. I don't know what Old Lady Xiao means by arranging this?
Are you trying to tell me: boy? Are you on one and a rich relative?
Chen Xiao felt a little funny in her heart. But he kept his doubts in his heart.
But the car finally drove up after the city. Old lady Xiao, who was silent along the way, suddenly opened her mouth and said softly: "These family businesses." In the future, it is going to be left to Xiao Qing's girl to take care of. Now let her wander outside for two years. After getting married in the future. It's time to take care of it. I'm back and taking care of my business. ”
Xiao Qing?
Hear the name. Chen Xiao frowned slightly. The name seemed unfamiliar to him. There seems to be an inexplicable sense of intimacy.
The old man said this very casually. The two juniors next to him had a strange face. couldn't help but glance at Chen Xiao deeply.
Zhang Xiaotao next to him listened. But instinctively gave birth to a jǐng ti in his heart. hurriedly pasted it to Chen Xiao's side. His eyes were full of wariness and looked at the old man.
The car was out quickly
Came to the bottom of a mountain on the outskirts of the city.
Lingnan is mountainous. This is not unusual. But Xiao is really rich!
The shape of the mountain. If you look down from the sky, it has a concave shape. And a big mansion with an ancient sè fragrance. It's nestled in the middle of this mountain hollow. Surrounded by hillsides on three sides. One side of the exit was flattened into a forest. A two-lane road is paved in the middle of the woods. Follow the road all the way in. You can see Old Lady Xiao's house!
Red walls and green tiles. Cornices bucket arches. It's like the mansion of an ancient eunuch.
The ancestor of the Xiao family came back. The car hasn't arrived at the door yet. Then he saw a large family waiting at the gate. Standing in several rows, waiting.
Standing in the front row were some slightly older ones. Most are some in their forties and fifties. Standing in the back row are younger. Sort them out by age and generation. All of them are serious. The atmosphere did not dare to take a breath. Honest hands hung down there.
Wait for the old lady to get out of the car. Everyone immediately bent down.
Chen Xiao saw this scene. I couldn't help sighing: such a big pomp. Could it be the ancient emperors?
The old man got out of the car. Next to it, the old mother and the maid at home brought tea and hand towels. The old man scrubbed and washed up. Holding a dragon-headed cane in his hand. Standing by Chen Xiao's side. Pointed to the door. smiled slightly: "Baby." Let's go home with my grandfather. ”
Actually, one person didn't come back before. The news of the old man arrived at home. Said it was this time out. I've recovered the blood that has been scattered outside. Chen's mother's surname is Xiao. In the past, he was a child of the Xiao family.
And Chen Xiao's identity. Before he came back, he was known by the various rooms of the family. As for Chen Xiao and Xiao Qing's marriage. That was set by the old man many years ago. Everybody knows.
Xiao Qing has a very special status in the family. Very popular with the old man. He has said many times that he will accept the family business in the future. Now he brought Chen Xiao back. This is Xiao Qing's genuine fiancé. The future little son-in-law of the Xiao family. Wouldn't that be the same as the identity of a colt?
Inherit the family business in the future. Xiao Qing is a girl. No matter how good it is. I have to listen to my husband. Then this boy who was picked up from outside. Isn't it just a step to the sky?
With all sorts of quirky thoughts. Although the old man was present. No one dared to show it. But shè's eyes towards Chen Xiao inevitably became complicated.
Merely......
When everyone saw Chen Xiao, there was a flower-like Zhang Xiaotao standing next to him. That's just a handsome look. But when I was dressed, I looked like I was from a big city in the east. It looks like a little bird. Affectionately holding hands with Chen Xiao - this is definitely not a brother and sister. It's just that the word "couple" is also engraved on the door of the brain!
What's going on? The little son-in-law of the Xiao family. Hooking up with a woman outside in front of the old man?!
The old man seems to be happy?!
Floor by floor in the courtyard of the house. The servants of the house lined up. Clean water sprinkled on the floor. Fragrant tea welcomes.
The boss of several large houses in the Xiao family. are waiting for the old man's reception. But who knew that the old man directly led Chen Xiao and the girl next to him into the inner house. Then the door closed. Send someone out and instruct: The old man travels all the way. Tired. I'll talk about it later.
The crowd stared wide-eyed. For a while, I didn't know how to guess the old man's mind. Only scattered.
"Hey, hey. These guys. I'm afraid I won't even be able to sleep tonight. ”
The old man sat on a chair in the hall. Chen Xiao sat under him.
In fact, this kind of hard Taishi chair. Chen Xiao was not comfortable sitting. He's used to sitting on the couch. But along the way, I held back my doubts. Now I finally have a chance to open it. He could only endure it.
"Old man. You've kidnapped me too. It's time to make it clear to me. ”
The old man smiled and nodded. He paused with his faucet cane on the green bricks on the ground. Not more than a moment. A few juniors came out from the back respectfully. Holding a few thick booklets in his hand.
"This is the genealogy of our Xiao family. Your mother's name. Also in it...... Take a good look for yourself and you'll understand. ”
Looking at a couple of thick booklets. Chen Xiao frowned.
"This is a transcript. The real original is in the ancestral hall. You can flip it around. The old man brought a cigarette gun from a junior next to him. Took two puffs. Put it on the table.
"Our Xiao family. The ancestors are also eunuchs. The ancestor also worked as a first-class master. into the center. But now the Lingnan Xiao family. But it was the end of the Qing Dynasty. After coming to Lingnan from the one-room branch in the north. Put down roots here. And then the more than 100 years began to flourish. That's why we have today's climate. I won't show you the genealogy if it's too early. But this one in my hand. It was recorded after coming here from our Lingnan branch. ”
Chen Xiao nodded. With a stomach full of questions. Turned the first page.
on the first page. Chen Xiao saw several names with the surname Xiao. It is probably the ancestor of the Lingnan branch back then.
What Chen Xiao didn't notice was. Right here on the first page. But there is a name that has something to do with him. It's just Chen Xiao now. But I remember the origin of this name.
"Xiao Jinglong. Xiao Jingen. Shaw...... Xiao Mingyue. Chen Xiao said very casually: "Xiao Mingyue." Moon...... What a nice name. ”
