Chapter 170: Stupid as Extreme
"Brother, I haven't seen you for a few years, but I'm getting more and more handsome."
"Hehe, you're getting cuter, too." Xiang Ju's expression softened slightly, and he reached out and stroked Nini's hair.
Lovely...... There is nothing wrong with the elder brother using to describe his sister, but it still seems to be a little different from the name of "school flower" given to Nini by everyone in the school.
Nini paused, and reached out to pull Lin Meihua: "Mom, let's go to dinner, the food is on the table." ”
The second uncle also greeted him with a smile: "Eldest nephew, your second aunt has been looking forward to you for a long time, so I have to cook it myself and make a few good dishes for you to taste." ”
Xiang Ju looked at the second uncle: "Oh, is it? Then thank you for the second uncle and the second aunt. ”
As soon as the words fell, Xiang Ju was pulled to the restaurant by Nini.
After three rounds of drinking, the topic of the second uncle began to rise from talking about family routines and companies to talking about people.
Seeing that the situation had changed, the second aunt deliberately took away Nini, who had not finished eating, and explained to Xiang Ju: "Eldest nephew, I will prepare some fruit for you." ”
Xiang Ju nodded: "Thank you, second aunt." ”
After the two left, the second uncle took a peanut into his mouth and chewed it twice, and opened his mouth slowly, with an unpleasant smell of alcohol in his mouth from time to time: "Eldest nephew, have you ever heard the word 'Jiang Lang is exhausted'?" ”
Xiang Ju's originally soft eyes suddenly cleared up, and then quietly picked up the wine glass in front of him, took another sip of wine, and said slowly: "I've heard." ”
"Do you know why Jiang Yan couldn't write a good article later?"
Xiang Ju shook the wine glass in his hand, and didn't look at the second uncle: "Legend has it that it was because people took back the talent that was lent to him, but to be realistic, I'm afraid it's because he became an official later?" ”
The second uncle sandwiched another peanut: "That's half right...... Mainly because his later official consumption consumed too much energy and time, and he didn't have the heart to write poems and essays, so the good works he circulated were all works he had when he was young. ”
Xiang Ju looked at the second uncle, although he had already expected him to talk about the key points, but he didn't expect him to introduce it in such a way, in my impression, the second uncle was still a mud leg, and he actually knew how to pull some allusions or something, which really opened Xiang Ju's eyes.
Although it is not certain whether someone is teaching the second uncle, at least the second uncle has wasted a lot of thought for today's so-called home-cooked dinner.
"Second uncle, what do you want to say?"
"Oh, uncle wants to ask you, how is the situation of my sister-in-law now?"
"Thank you uncle for your concern, for so many years, just like that, occasionally when the weather is good, the housekeeper will take her out to bask in the sun, and she basically won't and doesn't want to go out."
"Uncle knows that you are young and have to take care of paralyzed ...... It will be difficult for such a mother to take care of such a large company...... So you stayed at home a lot some time ago, and now there is something like Xiao Chen again, it's really hard for you. ”
Xiang Ju knew that the second uncle wanted to let him down, but he didn't expect that he would even use it as an excuse that he had always stayed at home before.
Judging from the news that Li Hao got, the second uncle has already taken care of the people on the board of directors, and when Xiao Chen jumps ship and causes huge economic losses to the company, he pulls himself down and lets him go up by himself.
With all due respect, this method of "killing a thousand enemies and damaging eight hundred" is really stupid.
