Xia Jianguo's words made me very embarrassed, but fortunately, Zhang Guotao came back at this time.

"Dad, the food is ready, it's time to eat." Zhang Guotao walked into the living room and said to Xia Jianguo.

"Alright, let's eat, I happen to be hungry too." Saying that, Xia Jianguo took the lead in leaving the living room.

"Brother, what did the old man tell you just now?" As soon as Xia Jianguo stepped out of the living room, Zhang Guotao walked in and asked me if I arrived.

I said, "I didn't say anything, he complained, and he didn't say anything else." ”

"Really? Hey, the old man has been whining a lot lately. After listening to my words, Zhang Guotao sighed and said.

"What, is something wrong?" I asked, puzzled.

Zhang Guotao said: "Recently, foreign hostile forces are looking for our country's ballast again, and many of the country's investments abroad have been affected and have suffered great losses, and many of them have been led by the old man before. Now that it's like this, the old man is worried. ”

I said, "Well, it's a major national event." This kind of thing is only qualified to worry about a central boss like the old man. Those people abroad just don't want our country to rise smoothly. ”

Zhang Guotao said: "Who says it's not." Okay, let's go over quickly, it's not good to let the old man wait for us. ”

When Zhang Guotao and I came to the table, Xia Jianguo, Xia Qianqian, and Tongtong were already sitting at the table. Mr. Xia's wife passed away many years ago, and Mr. Xia is also a daughter of Xia Qianqian, so he seems a little lonely.

"Sit down, it's time to eat." Seeing that we are coming, Xia Jianguo said.

There weren't many dishes on the table. Five dishes and one soup, it doesn't look rich at all, but it's just very exquisite. How to say it. After all, Old Man Xia is the central boss, and the dinner table can't be too shabby.

Tongtong may not be afraid of her grandfather at all, because she looks very dishonest when she eats, and sometimes she deliberately grabs vegetables from Xia Jianguo.

"Grandpa, your family's food is not as delicious as Uncle Xiaotian's food." Tongtong said to Xia Jianguo after eating for a while. She didn't eat anymore. I don't know if it's because she's full, or if she doesn't like the food.

Tongtong's words surprised Xia Jianguo, he said with a smile

"Really? It seems that Xiao Zhu, your food is really delicious. Is it your mom's cooking, or the chef's cooking. ”

"It was made by the chef! Grandma's cooking isn't that delicious. Kiritong answered for me before I did.

"Grandma?" Xia Jianguo said very puzzled.

"Tongtong recognized Xiaotian's mother as a godgrandmother." Xia Qianqian explained.

Xia Jianguo said: "It seems that I have to go to Xiao Zhu's house when I have to." ”

"Grandpa, you don't even go to Quanshi. How can you get to Uncle Sanoten's house? Tongtong looked at Xia Jianguo and said.

"Tongtong, eat your food, don't talk nonsense to me if you don't eat, be careful that your mother beats you know no." Xia Qianqian said to Tongtong with some blame.

"Akane. Don't blame Kirito. Dad: It's been a long time since Izumi City. Looks like I'll have to find some time to go back and walk. Xia Jianguo said with emotion.

Xia Jianguo's wife had died of illness as early as when Xia Jianguo was still in the place, and his wife was buried in his hometown in Quanshi.

"Xiao Zhu, I heard that the cooperation between Guotao and Li Guangzong of Longtian Group is still your match, isn't that the case?" Xia Jianguo said to me.

I said, "Yes, by chance, I saved Li Guangzong's life, and it just so happened that his development needed Brother Zhang's momentum, so it was done." ”

Xia Jianguo said, "Hmm." It seems that you are not only the life-saving benefactor of Guotao's family, but also his nobleman. ”

"Who's to say it isn't!" Zhang Guotao also echoed at this time.

I said, "That's a coincidence." Besides, Brother Zhang and Li Guangzong both take what they need. Actually, I'm just a matchmaker. ”

Xia Jianguo said: "You can't say that. Without you, how can Huatai Group have the current achievements. Seriously, even I have to thank you for helping me a lot indirectly. ”

I said, "It's my honor to help Xia Lao." ”

What Xia Jianguo said I indirectly helped him, and I also know the reason. Because when I was on the way here just now, Zhang Guotao had already told me. It is nothing more than when the country is not good to come forward, Zhang Guotao relies on the current influence of Huatai Group in the international community to put pressure on some countries, including the shadow of Longtian Group. I told Li Guangzong a long time ago that if I can help Zhang Guotao, I should try to help him as much as possible.

"In short, some things can be solved smoothly, and it is all because of you. Come and give you a toast to show my gratitude to you. Well, don't tell me you can't drink bars. Xia Jianguo raised his glass and said to me with a smile.

"I'll still drink some wine." I also raised the wine glass that Zhang Guotao had poured for me a long time ago and said to Xia Jianguo.

To my flatterment, Xia Jianguo actually drank the wine in his cup. And of course I drank all the wine in my glass.

"Come, come, eat." After drinking, Xia Jianguo said to me.

"Oh yes, Tongtong said that your food is delicious, I want to know if it's really better than my food here." Xia Jianguo said to me after taking a bite of the dish. He looked very easy-going, and didn't take me as an outsider at all. The reason why he wanted my confirmation was because the food cooked by their chef was much better than the food cooked in the five-star hotel outside.

I said, "It's okay, maybe Tongtong can't get used to your food here, so he said that." ”

"No, Uncle Xiaotian's food is better than my grandfather's food." Tongtong, who had been honest for a while, was restless again.

"Haha, Tongtong recommends it like this, it seems to be really delicious." After Xia Jianguo listened to Tongtong's words, he laughed and said.

"Actually, I also think that Brother Xiaotian's food is very delicious." Zhang Guotao also said with a look of unfinished business.

"Xiaoqian, do you think so too?" Obviously, Xia Jianguo was somewhat convinced.

"Yes, Dad, Brother Xiaotian's dish is the best dish I've ever tasted." Xia Qianqian also said in agreement.

Xia Jianguo said: "It seems that it is really better than my food here." Well, find a chance to go to Xiao Zhu's house to see what you know. ”

Xia Jianguo has nothing extravagant in his life, but he has a soft spot for food, and their chef is still selected by him.

"Then I'll be waiting for you!" I said with an honorable face.

After the meal, because Tong Tong insisted on watching cartoons, Xia Qianqian had to take her to the room to watch it. And Zhang Guotao and I accompanied Xia Jianguo to watch the news in the living room.

"The current international situation can really be described as pulling the whole body and moving the whole body." Looking at the report on TV that was broadcasting a demonstration in a certain country, Xia Jianguo said with emotion.

I said, "In the end, it's still the hearts of people who are at work. ”

I have always felt that human beings should be one, and that a country cannot be plunged into war because of the ambitions of certain people in certain countries. But who called human beings ambitious, this is a fact that no one can change.

"Oh, it seems that Xiao Zhu has something to say." Xia Jianguo looked at me and said.

I said, "Actually, it's nothing, just a little whining occasionally." ”

"Tell me about it." Xia Jianguo said with great interest.

I said, "I have always felt that if human beings could stop fighting each other, then I don't think there would be poverty and hunger in the world now." Often a war can destroy a country's savings for decades or even centuries. The country will also be set back by years or even decades as a result. The hard work of the people will be ruined by a war. ”

Xia Jianguo said: "Then have you ever thought about it." Everyone knows that wars are bad, but why are there so many wars in history? ”

I said, "Benefit! Because there are interests, there will be wars. In order to gain benefits, mankind can use any means, including war. ”

Xia Jianguo said: "That's it." That's why in order to protect the interests of the country, there are so many people who are willing to stand up and sacrifice for the country. Our older generations are the best example of this. Now that we are old, the time will have to be handed over to you young people. ”

I said, "Where are you old, you are only sixty years old now." ”

"How many more people can be sixty years old in life. So you should stop messing around with all that mess in the future, and you should put your mind on the right path. Xia Jianguo said pointedly. (To be continued......)
