Chapter 256: Family Matters
Zhou Xiuxiu said that in the end, she was almost anxious to cry. And with her narration, Sun Hao and Xiao Ning knew that even if they had expected this girl to have an excellent family background, they didn't expect it to be so good, if she was rich and powerful, she could call it "good".
East China Tang Group, the specific wealth is actually not clear. It is said that last year, the head of his family, Tang Tianyuan, appeared on the Forbes national wealth list with assets of more than 10 billion.
That ranking has always been, those who have no money are desperately trying to squeeze in, and those who are really rich are afraid of being ranked in, and even if they are occasionally ranked, they will try their best to get themselves down.
Hidden merit and fame are the code of conduct for those who pretend to be coerced, but the Tang family is no longer just for pretending, but also has the idea of self-protection. The bastard list is the crematorium of the rich, and if you hang it, you will be coveted by countless forces. Huang Guangyu, a well-known bigwig, is really rich, but he has been in the top few of the list for two or three years, and a pair of handcuffs are on his wrist.
Therefore, families like the Tang family are afraid of being on this kind of list. If you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves.
More importantly, the identity of the Tang family is special. The head of the family is a successful second-generation red businessman, but the family itself is still classified as a military and political circle. The second brother of the head of the family is the governor of a province in East China, and the family with such a background has experienced the ups and downs of the first generation, and has accumulated the struggle of the second generation.
Zhou Xiuxiu's father is Tang Tianyuan, the head of the Tang family.
Among the three Tang Tianyuan brothers, he was the most talented. is also regarded by the old man as his successor. But helplessly, Tang Tianyuan when he was young was very suave, quite a bit of the taste of the real second ancestor, and all the ink in his belly was used on the sound-color dog-horse, the old man had the grief and indignation of hating iron and steel, and the old men of the uncles and uncles lamented one by one.
How many wealthy families wanted to marry, but they were all scoffed at by him. And in the end, to the surprise of the older generation, it is said that this kid actually fell in love with a dusty woman in Fireworks Alley. Then he and the woman disappeared for several years, and they were missing. And when he reappeared, there was already a man and a girl, the boy was Tang Haotian, and the girl was Zhou Xiuxiu.
When Tang Tianyuan returned to the family with a pair of children. was knocked out of the house by the old man with a cane. You don't marry the daughter of the commander's family. You don't want the daughter of the governor's family, not to mention eloping with a woman from Yanhua Lane, and bringing back this pair of little evildoers, the old man was furious.
But Tang Tianyuan is a capable one. Coupled with the secret support of several old men from uncles and uncles. In addition, he was assisted by two younger brothers who had already made a name for themselves in both the military and political circles. stunned to fight with a pair of iron fists to build a huge family business.
When the old man was dying, Tang Tianyuan, who was "the prodigal son turned back", returned to his ancestors and recognized his ancestors. Tang Tianyuan, whose personality has changed greatly, no longer has the slightest stubbornness, and is already a hero with hands and eyes. In fact. The two younger brothers helped Tang Tianyuan a lot in the early stage, but the soaring prosperity in the later stage came from the support of Tang Tianyuan's terrifying financial resources. The two younger brothers knew that without Tang Tianyuan, their path to advancement would be much more tortuous and bumpy than it is now. And if there is no Tang Tianyuan in the future, their path will also be difficult.
In the year of recognizing his ancestors and returning to his ancestors, Tang Haotian was fourteen and Zhou Xiuxiu was nine years old.
And Tang Tianyuan's statement of returning to the Tang family is that he honestly assumed the obligations of the eldest son and did his best to support the entire Tang family. And in order to make the old man blind, the forty-year-old diamond king Tang Tianyuan married the daughter of a certain lieutenant general's family. When this woman married into the Tang family, she was twenty years old, only twelve years older than Zhou Xiuxiu, and there was only one round of difference in one genus.
The relationship between stepmother and stepdaughter can never be too harmonious. Even if the famous lady is well-read, it is still difficult for the Tang family to really like Tang Haotian and Zhou Xiuxiu.
And Zhou Xiuxiu felt that her father's remarriage was an insult to her deceased mother.
Grandpa scolded him for being a sinister seed, his father's betrayal, and his stepmother popped out from time to time a sentence "the seed born by Miss"...... Under this family atmosphere, Zhou Xiuxiu's rebellious psychology became more and more strict.
Of course, Sun Hao also suddenly understood, when he first met, he inadvertently suspected that Zhou Xiuxiu was a "young lady", and as a result, she suddenly touched the sensitive nerves of this girl, and cried heartbreakingly, it is estimated that she associated her mother's identity with that word, and thought of her mother's tragic experience.
Zhou Xiuxiu's mother died, and she hated her treacherous father, so she claimed to be fatherless and motherless. Even when Hu Tiancheng, secretary of the municipal party committee, learned of this, he could only sigh and say that there was a "special reason".
As for Hu Tiancheng, he has a good relationship with the three brothers of the Tang family. More importantly, Zhou Xiuxiu's third uncle Tang Tianci is precisely Hu Tiancheng's top boss in the army. When Tang Tianci was a division commander in the field army, Hu Tiancheng was the regiment commander
So when he visited relatives in the past, Hu Tiancheng often visited the Tang family, calling Zhou Xiuxiu's father the eldest brother, and Zhou Xiuxiu's third uncle the third brother, and the relationship with the Tang family was as solid as iron.
Later, the reason why Hu Tiancheng transferred to Jingbei City was also because Tang Tianci had been transferred to the local government as an important person, which was convenient for taking care of. In the process of changing jobs, it was also Tang Tianyuan's huge influence in East China officialdom and financial support at any cost, as well as Tang Tianci's maneuvering in the provincial capital, that Hu Tiancheng was able to directly enjoy ministerial-level treatment without discount. Without the full support of the Tang family, Hu Tiancheng would be transferred to one deputy mayor at most. The gap in one level often means how many years of struggle in officialdom.
A lifetime of kindness, can Hu Tiancheng be grateful?
These are all the past events of the Tang family, and it is Zhou Xiuxiu's sadness to say it. This girl said that she didn't want to go back to that family, so she kept her name incognito, just for fear of being caught by her father and uncles who were capable. To be honest, Tang Tianyuan really cherishes this pair of children, but Zhou Xiuxiu just doesn't like him.
Especially after her stepmother gave birth to a younger brother, Zhou Xiuxiu was even more disgusted with that family. Because the stepmother is the wife of the Tang family who is married to Ming Media, and her mother's background is also deep, she naturally has a transcendent status in the family. The youngest son she gave birth to is the young master of the Tang family. Not to mention the two uncles, even the servants in the family look up to them. On the contrary, Tang Haotian and Zhou Xiuxiu are brother and sister. On the contrary, it seems to be born by a stepmother.
It is precisely because of this that Tang Hao, who is burdened with shame and fighting spirit, is a genius who works hard wholeheartedly, and has a hard work that ordinary sons and brothers do not have. When he was a teenager, he practiced kung fu with the first master in his family and developed a skill. Later, he was admitted to university with his real talent. After graduating from university, he plunged headlong into the grassroots of the army.
A hard kung fu, a high-achieving student in a brand-name university, with a strong military background behind him, it is difficult to get promoted! Since joining the army for more than a year, Tang Haotian has worked hard to climb to the rank of major. Presently. His unit still lists him as a key training target. I'm afraid there's one more chance to jump in the near future! Then, at a young age, he is a lieutenant colonel officer with a bright future.
In fact, Tang Haotian was also bitter in his heart. He could see it in general. In the future, the Tang family will be a qiē foundation. I'm afraid it has nothing to do with me. The younger brother born to his stepmother. is the real young master of the Tang family. Then, he doesn't take advantage of his youth to fight, and he doesn't take advantage of the various resources available to work hard. How will you stand in the future? How to protect your sister?
Iron also needs to be hard. At that time, even if his father Tang Tianyuan gave a qiē to that half-brother, he Tang Haotian still has his own strength, his own military uniform, and his own pair of fists.
In that big family, Tang Haotian only cares about his sister, and the brother and sister depend on each other. Protecting his sister from bullying is one of the main motivations for Tang Haotian's hard work. Similarly, in the huge Tang family, except for Tang Haotian, the elder brother of a mother, Zhou Xiuxiu could not find the slightest warmth.
And now, his sister is gone, can Tang Haotian not be anxious? directly asked for leave from the troops, and rushed to East China to search desperately, like a fly without a head. He inquired about all his friends, and he asked all his uncles.
It wasn't until yesterday that he asked about Hu Tiancheng, and when he heard that Hu Tiancheng seemed to have something unspeakable, Tang Haotian immediately went crazy, and drove to Jingbei City without saying a word. questioned Hu Tiancheng in person, and only then did he know Zhou Xiuxiu's whereabouts. Hu Yifei knew where Xiao Ning lived and said the name of the community. Tang Haotian drove into the community in one breath and asked for the specific room number of a woman who drove a BMW and lived in a duplex, which was not difficult.
In fact, on the way to drive here, Tang Haotian hated it in his heart! Because he heard Hu Yifei say, Sun Hao and Xiao Ning are opening a night show, and Zhou Xiuxiu is also working in that night club, what is my sister actually working in a night club? ! How does this make Tang Haotian bear? Fortunately, after meeting, I knew that Zhou Xiuxiu was just doing administrative work there. But for Sun Hao and Xiao Ning, Tang Haotian still doesn't have much good feelings. The person who did the night club almost broke his sister, this is Tang Haotian's own idea.
There was a knock on the door, Xiao Ning opened the bedroom door, and saw Tang Haotian's impatient face: "Xiuxiu, I'll go home with my brother when I'm done!" ”
Zhou Xiuxiu was a little stubborn: "I don't want to go back." I'm good here, Sun Hao and Xiao Ning are good to me. I can earn money to support myself, and I don't need the Tang family's money. ”
Only in the face of the original mother and the brother of the same mother, Zhou Xiuxiu will not call himself Lao Tzu.
"It's against you!" Tang Haotian was angry, thinking that Sun Hao and Xiao Ning had said something, and strengthened his sister's thoughts, so he turned angry at Sun Hao, "You bastard who opens a night show, how many more people will be harmed!" ”
It's hard to hear, but it's the family's earnestness. To be honest, no one wants their sister to live in the night market, so Sun Hao and Xiao Ning also understand. However, Sun Hao felt that Zhou Xiuxiu really had no happiness when she returned to the Tang family, so he said: "Brother Haotian, my business is clean, at least Xiao Ning and I are not pimps, not like you think." As for Xiuxiu, can there be happiness when she returns to the Tang family? Since she doesn't want to go back, let her live in Jingbei City for a while. If you think the reputation of the night club is unpleasant, tomorrow I will let her go to work at my real estate company, and it will be a matter of one sentence. ”
"You're a bird! What bullshit KTV, real estate, how much of a profit! "Tang Haotian is really angry. I couldn't find my sister's whereabouts for many days in a row, and I had already held back my anger. Now I finally found it, but I was "instigated" by Sun Hao and didn't want to go back. Any parent who finds a runaway child will be furious when he encounters such a thing, "You are a ruffian who mixes with society, don't come to provoke our Tang family!" Bastard, how great is the mixed society? ”
Sun Hao didn't care too much about Tang Haotian's collision in anger, he only cared about whether Zhou Xiuxiu was happy now and whether he would be happy in the future. "I know that your Tang family is powerful, but no matter how big your Tang family is, what can you bring to Zhou Xiuxiu, have you ever thought about it? If you really love her, make her happy. As for life in Jingbei City, who can still bend her? With my Sun Hao's breath, no one can be embarrassed by Zhou Xiuxiu, and Zhou Xiuxiu can't freeze or starve, you can rest assured. ”
Tang Haotian's anger was even hotter, and he smiled angrily: "What a big breath! I know you're a kung fu guy and a bit of a petty fortune, but don't think too highly of yourself. ”
Saying that, Tang Haotian went straight to Zhou Xiuxiu. If his sister still doesn't want to go, he will hug him back.
Sun Hao was about to stop him, but the Chen Uncle behind Tang Haotian said indifferently: "Little brother, it is difficult for a Qing official to decide family affairs, so don't get involved with you as an outsider." I can see that you are a good person, and we don't want to embarrass you. But if you embarrass us, I'm afraid it won't do us any good. ”
As he spoke, a faint momentum spread unconsciously, and he was really a master. This is a faint deterrent, and I feel that with Sun Hao's skills, he should be able to sense something in general. Everyone doesn't know the depth of each other, but at a certain level, the basic judgment ability should be there.
And Zhou Xiuxiu, who was about to refuse, saw this posture and immediately said in surprise: "Brother, don't do it, I'll go back with you!" (To be continued......)
