Master Meng's original name was Meng Zongzhu.

He is a well-known good man in Taiping Town.

Fifty-seven years old, no bad habits, equal emphasis on career and family, kind and kind to people, counting Meng Nanke, has three children under his knees, two boys and one girl.

As a big channel merchant in the downstream of Tianshu, Master Zongzhu has lived a well-behaved life all his life, like a compass and a ruler, reminding himself all the time that he must not make mistakes.

In the guest room.

He sat in the boss's chair and entertained the eldest young master of the Bai family with refreshments.

Just like 20 years ago, he carefully prepared a staff meal for Bai Hongtao, as well as a stack of peanuts.

He was calm, articulate, and logical.

Let's start with a self-introduction that reunites after a long absence.

"Son-in-law, long time no see."

The four characters on the plaque of the hall house are vigorous and powerful, writing "The Right Way in the World", the weak fire is boiling the bright red leaves in the tea soup, and the hot bubbles are coming out of the kettle, turning into wisps of green smoke.

Bai Hongtao's face was cold, and there was a nameless fire in his heart.

I thought to myself, this is Meng Nanke's father, a person who can't find shortcomings in life.

"yes, long time no see, grandpa."

He paused word by word, and accepted the Yinfeng Youlong Sword in his hand, and all the blades of the sword were stored in the iron gourd, turning into a silver pill immortal medicine.

When Master Meng saw the supernatural powers on his son-in-law's body, his eyelids jumped, and he was slightly surprised, thinking that he was curious about his son-in-law's ability.

Meng Zongzhu asked: "I heard that you have recently returned to the town, drunk and dreaming every day, talking about books in exchange for wine, are you unhappy in Tianshu?" ”

"Forget it! Don't mention it, I'll come to you......" Bai Hongtao sat down, his one-meter-nine figure squeezed into the guest chair, looking a little cramped and crowded, took out the big front door from his pocket and threw it to his father-in-law, "It's for Nanke." ”

When mentioning Meng Nanke's name, Master Zongzhu's expression obviously became nervous.

He was about to pour tea for his son-in-law, when his hand shook, and the bright red tea soup spilled on the wooden table.

The atmosphere became solemn in an instant.

From here, Bai Hongtao's eyes became colder and colder, and he expected that the good sister in his dream had become the appearance of no one or a ghost now, and he must have nothing to do with Master Zongzhu.

It's just—

Bai Hongtao: "She is your own flesh and blood......"

- Master Zongzhu returned to normal, sat flat and steady, didn't even mean to explain, and just threw a small tea bag into the teapot.

He asked: "Yes, three years ago, when Nan Ke just left, I was also very sad, but people can't be resurrected after death, and now I bring it up for what?" ”

Bai Hongtao glared angrily and hit the nail on the head: "My Nanke, was you killed!" ”

Master Meng is leisurely and elegant, and the soup is evenly opened for the tea bag, as if making tea is much more important than entertaining his son-in-law.

For no other reason, this is a gift from Tianshu, a pack of worry-free tea.

Among the powdered keratin in the tea bag is Ye Bei's nails.

The nails are also regarded as a traditional Chinese medicine, which can stop bleeding and diuresis when taken internally, and is used for epistaxis, eye pannus, and otitis media. Take one dose a month to protect your health.

When Master Meng poured himself a cup of precious tea, he finally replied with a plausible sentence.

"What do you mean by that?"

"Nanke often appears in my dreams...... You all say she's dead, and she haunted me in my dreams for nearly three years, and I still see her to this day. ”

"It's the son-in-law who is too obsessed, and when she sees it, she naturally leaves."

Bai Hongtao said angrily: "Fart! She wouldn't say a word to me...... Have you cut off her tongue? ”

Meng Zongzhu looked calm: "Son-in-law, you are tired, if you are worried about the comfortable life of the Meng family, you can come to Ya to live for a period of time and recuperate, if it is really as you said, Xinu has been accompanying your son-in-law in her dreams......"

"What do you mean by what I said! She was clearly asking me for help! Bai Hongtao roared red-faced, compared to Master Meng's calmness, he was like a hysterical psycho.

"But this is a dream? How can you take it seriously? And ......" Master Meng Zongzhu's words changed, and he became vicious in an instant: "I don't know, son-in-law, what do you want?" I'm afraid that Tianshu can't stay, and he can't get used to the poor storytelling life, so he wants to use the relationship of the daughter to go back to the Meng family and continue to live the life of a young master, right? ”

"You!" Bai Hongtao slapped the case, extremely angry, his eyes were bloodshot, "You old turtle bastard!" Bloody mouth! ”

"No...... Son-in-law. Meng Zongzhu sipped the tea soup lightly, and his eyes were even brighter, "It's you, I, as a father, how can I attack my own flesh and blood?" You just said that I killed Arco three years ago and cut out her tongue...... Do you have proof? Can't you feel the heart-piercing pain of my father? Where is your conscience? ”

Bai Hongtao was as anxious as a monkey, scratching his ears and cheeks, and almost scratched his neck to bleed.

"Ye Bei said! Ye Bei said...... Ake was wearing the Yellow Mother's divine robe...... She's become a clothier, and she's kind of an agent of the textile god, if it has nothing to do with you...... How did she become like this? ”

Meng Zongzhu poured another cup of worry-free tea for his son-in-law.

"Son-in-law, speak clearly, don't be headless and tailless. How do I know what you're talking about, you don't have a preface? ”

Bai Hongtao suddenly realized that this old guy seemed to understand everything and was pretending to be stupid!

Regarding the cause of Nan Ke's death, Master Meng must know something.

I listened to Meng Zongzhu calm down and tell what he thought.

"I've been working for Tianshu for most of my life, people, you must find your own position, son-in-law, do you understand this truth?"

Bai Hongtao was speechless.

Meng Zongzhu also said: "In this society, there are superior people and inferior people, it does not mean that the inferior people have no human rights, the inferior people have to work for the superior people, but the inferior people can also reap the happiness of the inferior people, and it is also called the eternal happiness of the ignorant, do you understand this truth?" ”

The more Bai Hongtao listened, the colder his heart became.

The forgetful tea that Meng Zongzhu pushed to his son-in-law was already cold.

"The inheritance from my father has a total of more than 3,000 employees, if they know, in the eyes of finance and accounting, they can only be counted as a head dividend, in the eyes of the department manager, can only be counted as performance, in my eyes, it is just a cold number, can they live happily?"

Bai Hongtao's eyes were distracted, he had a hidden expectation in his heart, but he didn't expect this result.

When he was young, he got along with Master Meng day and night for several years, and he didn't feel that this person was so cold-blooded.

Listen to the meaning of the other person's words.

Remove the rhetoric of red tape, and translate it to be.

[That's right, I killed people, but what if you know the truth? You'll only get more upset. 】

Meng Zongzhu knocked lightly on the table: "The tea is going to be cold, son-in-law, now you have completed the fish and dragon transformation." In my eyes, you are a superior person, a great nobleman of Tianshu, and an existence that I want to look up to, why do you still miss my poor daughter? ”

"You old turtle ......" Bai Hongtao gritted his teeth: "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?!" ”

Meng Zongzhu had no fear, and raised his glass to invite: "The clothes on your bodies are all materials and textiles that I have worked hard to weave, and human beings have to wear clothes to cover their shame, what mistake did I make?" Do you want to be dragged to the execution ground to bear the crime of killing your head? You're going to make it clear to me, huh? Is Tianshu willing to kill me? ”

Faced with the old man's questioning, Bai Hongtao was speechless.

What could he believe?

Do you believe in an absurd and realistic dream?

Do you believe Mr. Cha's words?

Or is it ......

Do you believe that you have adhered to the morality of most of your life?

He felt that he was only one step away from the truth.

But before the way to the gate, a devil in human skin blocked the way.

"I used to be like you, son-in-law, and I admire you." Meng Zongzhu was quiet in his voice, and there was envy in his words: "I also want to become a master, become as chic and natural as you, become drunk and angry, my two sons are not as good as you, you can take a fancy to Xinu, it is really my blessing, but ......"

He drank tea cup after cup.

"Life is a journey from blood to cold-blooded, unscrupulous means to achieve the end, there is only the king and the defeat in the world, the vast majority of people will not sing the praises of the loser, for me, to complete the task of the inferior people in peace and quiet, is my greatest victory. When you see a lot, you will know that this is called maturity, also called growing up, its original meaning is cold-blooded, inferior people, and there must be an inferior way of survival! ”

From outside, a cold wind blew through the cold chill.

Meng Zongzhu's tone was quiet, his face showed a spring breeze, revealing a sickly look, and a little tears, which was deliberate.

"If you can marry another daughter, I can also accept you as a son-in-law. It's just Ake, no more. ”
