Chapter 401: Night Banquet (1)
Fang Yulin stood in place and pondered for a long time, but finally couldn't bear the idea of finding a way out for the family, and followed him into the Shen Mansion according to Wu Liang's words. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
When the three of them came to the side hall, Shen Mo was chatting happily with everyone, while Jiang Yun was drunk, stroking his head and resting at the table for a while. Seeing someone pushing the door in, Shen Mo looked back and immediately stood up to greet him. "Brother Wu, why did you come so late? I've been waiting for a long time. ā
Wu Liang bowed his hand and returned the salute. "Something happened at home and I couldn't leave on time, so I was delayed for a while." He pulled Fang Yulin, who was half a step behind him, forward and said, "Brother Shen, let me introduce you, this is the little brother's best friend, the head of the Fang family in Wu County, Fang Yulin." ā
"Wu County Fang family?" Shen Mo blinked, and he had no impression of this so-called family at all. It's no wonder that the Shen family is the largest family valve in the entire Jiangnan region, and Fang Yulin's family is just the landlord of a small county under the rule of Suzhou Prefecture. However, since Wu Liang had already stated the relationship between the two of them, without looking at the face of the monk and looking at the face of the Buddha, Shen Mo still showed enough demeanor, put on a smiling face and raised his hand and saluted: "Brother Fang, welcome, welcome." ā
Fang Yulin was flattered when he heard this, and hurriedly replied: "This time I came uninvited, it was very abrupt, Shen... He paused for a moment, and he didn't know how to call Shen Mo for a while, so he held back for a long time, and then he was cheeky, and then said: "Brother Shen, don't blame." ā
"It's okay, it's okay." Shen Mo beckoned to the two of them and said, "Hurry up and take a seat." ā
"Yulin, sit down." Wu Liang and Shen Mo have been friends for many years, and the relationship has always been good. This Shen Mansion has also been here several times, and he has long been accustomed to it, so he is as casual as his own home, and walks to the big table with Fang Yulin, he looks around at everyone, and arches his hand with a smile. "Everyone, Wu is late, and he will punish himself with three cups."
Three glasses in a row for the slightest respite, Wu Liang drank the wine very boldly, everyone present and he was also an old friend who had known him for a long time, seeing this situation, he couldn't help but applaud, and the atmosphere in the hut was immediately mobilized. After arranging for Fang Yulin to take a seat, Wu Liang turned around and said, "Lao Liu, you go and sit at the table opposite." ā
After he finished speaking, he saw Steward Liu standing still in the distance, looking at Jiang Yun in front of the table with his eyes shining. I haven't seen each other for two or three years, but Steward Liu still recognizes it at a glance. He was a little darker and a lot stronger, but between his eyebrows, he could still see the appearance of the sick seedling in the early years. "Jiang Yun?" He asked tentatively.
As soon as these words came out, Fang Yulin's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly stood up and turned around and scolded: "Old Liu, how can you be so rude? Stand down! ā
Shen Mo's face was also slightly gloomy when he heard this, and he was very unhappy in his heart. He was able to let Fang Yulin into the house to see Wu Liang's face, not to mention that he was a little steward. Don't say it's Jiang Yun, no one here can be named by him. The housekeeper is so ignorant of the rules, the tutor of this family can be imagined, after all, the rich man is the rich man, and the price of sharing a table with this generation is simply cheap.
Jiang Yun was holding his chin and closing his eyes to recuperate, when he heard someone calling his name, he couldn't help but open his eyes and look forward, and was stunned when he saw Manager Liu. A slightly rugged face seemed familiar, where should I have seen it, but I couldn't remember it for a while. "You are?"
Fang Yulin glared, and Steward Liu also knew that he was too abrupt, and he was worried in his heart, but he didn't want Jiang Yun to reply to him. Steward Liu was afraid that Jiang Yun would not be able to remember him, so he hurriedly made a gesture when he went to Jiangjia Village to receive the goods in the past, and after the slightly domineering appearance appeared, Jiang Yun's alarm clock flashed, and he immediately remembered it.
"Steward Liu? Steward Liu of the Fang family? ā
"Exactly... Steward Liu coughed lightly and replied respectfully: "It's the villain." ā
"Ouch!" Jiang Yun was very happy when he heard this, and the wine in his chest also diluted a little, he almost jumped up and walked over, looked him up and down, and said with a smile: "This world is really small, I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you doing lately?" ā
"Don't you dare." Steward Liu hurriedly bent down and returned: "Entrusted to the lord Hongfu, the villain has had an okay life in the past two years." ā
"Hey, when have you been so polite."
Looking at the appearance of the two, Shen Mo couldn't help but doubt: "Brother Jiang, do you know each other?" ā
"Well, I've got acquainted." Jiang Yun stretched out his hand and pulled Steward Liu to his side, and introduced: "Before I came to Wu County, this Steward Liu was the food and clothing parent of our entire village, and everyone relied on him to eat." ā
"Don't dare, don't dare."
Jiang Yun looked at Steward Liu, and was about to speak, when his face suddenly changed, and he pulled him up and walked straight out of the house. "You use it first, I'll talk to him."
Out of the house, the cold wind rushed towards him, which made Jiang Yun shiver, and he was even more sober. There were no outsiders beside him, and Steward Liu no longer felt restrained, he looked at Jiang Yun and said: "Xiaoyun, you haven't heard from you at all in the past two years, but your father is worried a lot, I haven't seen you for more than two years, how did you become a big official?" ā
"It's a coincidence."
"You kid, I didn't say you. Now that you have made a lot of money and become a big official, you should also take your father to enjoy the blessings, why don't you care about it for two years in a row. Recently, the income in the village has been getting less and less, and your father's life is not very easy. He was old, and the root of the disease that fell when he was young flare-up, and he couldn't sleep all night. Steward Liu said: "It's not easy for your father to raise you, the so-called filial piety comes first, you are really... ā
"Alright, don't count me down, I know that. Originally, I really planned to bring the old man to Jinling to enjoy the blessings, but the problem is... I don't have the face to see him now. Jiang Yun sighed: "I lost the bamboo." The old man spent so much energy to get me a daughter-in-law, and I lost it in a blink of an eye, and you don't know his temper, so I went back rashly and didn't be killed by him. ā
"Bamboo? Bamboo is not... Steward Liu was about to blurt out, but suddenly thought of something and suddenly fell silent.
Can't say, can't say! Jiang Zhu'er's idea of selling his body was given by him, although it was a good intention to save Jiang Yun's life, but after all, he was the initiator, if Jiang Yun knew, God knows how he would react. His identity is different now, and it is not an exaggeration to say that even a word can determine life and death, and Liu Guan Shi can't afford this kind of consequence.
What's more, he had secretly inquired at the beginning, and since he sold himself that day, Jiang Zhu'er has never appeared in the Qinglou Mansion under Shen Mo's name. According to Steward Liu's estimate, nine times out of ten, she asked Shen Mo to take it as an outer room, and of course, it may have been given out as a gift to make friends with powerful people. If he had known about it, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Steward Liu's understanding of Jiang Yun is still stuck three years ago. Although this person's temperament is a little weak, he is very serious, and he has a deep affection for Jiang Zhu'er, and he was even almost beaten to death by the village bully for her. Steward Liu dared to assert that once Jiang Yun knew about this, he would definitely turn his face with Shen Mo on the spot.
As a result, HSBC will have major problems, not only will the four major families suffer heavy losses, but the Fang family will not have any benefits. This is a critical period, but nothing can go wrong. Steward Liu had a bit of selfishness, so he did not tell Jiang Yun where Jiang Zhu'er went. Just look to him and pretend not to know.
Jiang Yun called him out to find out Jiang Zhu'er's whereabouts, but seeing that Steward Liu didn't know, he couldn't help but lose his interest, and his disappointment resurfaced in his heart. However, it is still a thing worth celebrating when the old people meet, and he still politely invited Steward Liu back to the side hall to have dinner together.
In principle, Steward Liu's identity is absolutely ineligible to sit at the table, but since Jiang Yun opened his mouth, it was difficult for everyone present to refute his face, so he let him sit down. The eyes of everyone looking at Steward Liu were suddenly different, especially Fang Yulin, who never expected that Lao Liu really knew Jiang Yun, and his heart was agitated, and he suddenly felt that it was worth it today. The relationship between the two seems to be extraordinary, and since he came back, Jiang Yun directly let Lao Liu sit next to him, which shows that he attaches great importance to it. With such a friendship, it is easy to talk about the future.
Fang Yulin was silent, did not join the conversation of everyone, just pricked up his ears and listened carefully. Finally, after three rounds of drinking, Shen Mo finally opened his mouth to bring this night banquet to the main topic.
