Chapter 562: The Wind Direction (I)
Hanging up Guo Rongrong's phone, Xiahou Zhongying finally breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. What he is most concerned about now is the situation after his father returns to China, however, he doesn't know many people in China, just a few, and the Li family and the Yu family can help.
However, he doesn't know what attitude to treat the Yu family now, every time he thinks of Yu Yuerong, he is full of anger, depression, and bad luck, and he is angry with her for the grievances he has suffered, so naturally he will not take the initiative to ask her. In addition, there is only one Li Rongdao left.
It's just that Li Rongdao himself is just a small person, and he has no right to speak at home, and he only knows a little about the family's decision-making, except for knowing that his father was taken to Beidaihe, he doesn't know anything else, which makes him anxious all the time, if it weren't for Uncle Ge to stop him, he would be ready to go back to China again.
When Guo Rongrong called to say that she had seen her father, everything was fine, and asked him not to worry, Xiahou Zhongying was shocked. Even Li Rongdao didn't have the ability to visit, how could she be a little girl who has no power, no power, and no bottom in China?
Later, after hearing Yu Yuerong's name and learning that this was the hand of the old man of the Yu family, Xiahou Zhongying couldn't help but sigh slightly. The Yu family is running up and down for his father's affairs, and they will inevitably owe a lot of favors and pay a lot of benefits, although there are reasons for their future layout for their family, but no matter what, this favor Xiahou family is owed.
The Yu family's campaign for Xiahou Shang has achieved initial results, and the Li family not only knew the Tao earlier than Xiahou Zhongying, but also owed everyone a favor for the detailed operation. It's clear what the price has been paid. Of course, knowing these things is limited to the few top decision-makers in the family.
"Father." Li Mingdao walked into his father's study and bowed to him.
"Well, something?" Li Wending put down the book in his hand, looked up at his son and asked.
"The son has a problem in his heart, and he wants to ask your father for advice."
Li Wending nodded and motioned for Li Mingdao to continue.
"Why do our family stand by and watch the affairs of my little uncle, but ask outsiders to help?" Li Mingdao lowered his head and whispered: "How can you say that my little uncle is also from our family, and if our family does this, isn't it made them look down on our family if they are known by other families?" ”
The capital is said to be big and big. It's small and it's small. Big. It's for ordinary citizens; Small, for the major political families, what is going on in the capital will soon blow into their ears.
Xiahou Shang's matter is not a trivial matter. This is a game between two major political blocs. Domino effect. Not only the capital, but almost all the famous families in the country are paying attention to the development of this matter.
To the surprise of many people, the Li family, who was supposed to be standing at the mouth of the storm, did not move. Just watched coldly, and didn't say anything at all. And the Yu family, who had no friendship with the Xiahou family and had a lot of grudges, ran up and down to make a point for him, and in order to fish him out, even the old man of the Yu family was dispatched.
The old foxes of various families, who are very sensitive to the direction of the political wind, can understand what is going on after a little thought. Two days later, some of the elders of the family began to ask for visits to the Li family's group or the families related to the Yu family's group, and more, continued to wait and see.
However, many people of the younger generation do not have such a high degree of political sensitivity and cannot see the meaning of this, they only see the indifference of the Li family. Therefore, in the past few days, there have been many messages in the capital that are not conducive to the Li family.
At first, Li Mingdao was also indifferent and dismissive of those messages, but he knew the relationship between his father and his uncle, and he was also very concerned about his cousin, so he naturally would not stand idly by. However, in the next few days, the actions of the Yu family have already achieved initial results, and there is still no action at home, and the rumors outside have intensified, which has a great impact on the image of the Li family. At this time, Li Mingdao finally couldn't sit still, and after dinner, he came to his father's study.
After hesitating for a moment, Li Mingdao continued: "Now there are a lot of rumors outside that are not good for our family's image......
"Think for yourself, what is this for?" Li Wending interrupted Li Mingdao's words and said to him.
"What?"
"I mean, let yourself think about why our family is doing this, and step aside."
Li Mingdao opened his mouth, and saw that his father had lowered his head and picked up the book to continue reading, so he didn't dare to say anything more, bowed, and exited his father's study.
Early the next morning, Li Wending was about to go back to the college after breakfast, and just after he went out of the door, he saw Li Mingdao standing respectfully next to his car, his face was a little haggard, and his eye circles were a little dark, it seemed that he didn't sleep well last night.
"Get in the car, I'll take you to the unit." Li Wending said to his son.
"Yes."
"Figured it out?" After getting into the car and sitting down, Li Wending asked.
"The son is stupid." Li Mingdao lowered his head and replied ashamedly.
"You are designated as the first heir of the younger generation of our Li family, and you are also qualified to participate in many decision-making meetings of the family, but your current performance is not even as good as Rong Dao, he can at least guess a few points, but you can't see it at all, which makes me very disappointed." Li Wending's face was full of disappointment, and he shook his head slightly.
"Can he guess Rong Dao?" Li Mingdao was stunned, he couldn't imagine that the younger brother who had always been looked down upon by him, had never done serious things, and had only begun to retract in the past year could understand it, but he had no clue at all, and he was so ashamed that he was almost embarrassed, and he was a little flustered in his heart for no reason.
"Don't look down on your brother, he is much more flexible than you." Li Wending understands Li Mingdao's character, and can also guess his thoughts, he has always looked down on his younger brother, and feels that he used to be idle all day long, walking around the horse and zhangtai, and he was a mud that could not support the wall. He was able to show brotherhood and brotherly respect to Li Rongdao before, which was based on the fact that he was not as good as himself, and if he could threaten his family's position as the first heir in line one day, he would never be soft on him.
Ming Dao had no opponents before, and he was too comfortable, growing up in this environment, he would inevitably not be able to fight the heirs of the other families who fought among the brothers, and the future of the family was worrying. The opinion of the clan elders is correct, and he has to help him find a few opponents to hone and hone his skills, Li Wending thought to himself in his heart.
"I didn't expect your brother to be so shrewd when he put his mind to play." Glancing at Li Mingdao, Li Wending showed a satisfied smile on his face and continued: "I am ready to propose to the family to give your younger brother a qualification to attend the decision-making meeting of the family to observe. ”
When Li Mingdao heard this, his face suddenly became extremely ugly. (To be continued......)
