Chapter 33: The Xiao family is just a strong outsider
In the end, unable to resist the warm invitation of the Jiang family, Lin Xiao had to have a light meal at the Jiang family.
Although the room is still a little messy, the dining room is still quite spacious.
Jiang Shangcun raised his glass to Lin Xiao and asked for help, trying to find out Lin Xiao's whereabouts in the past five years, but Lin Xiao just smiled and didn't say much.
Xiao Yun stopped talking on the side, but he still didn't say a word after all.
Jiang Wan lowered her head the whole time and didn't say a word.
In the middle of the meal, Lin Xiao made a phone call by the way, and asked Lu Liang to investigate the background of the Xiao family, and then send it to his mobile phone.
This investigation didn't matter, Lin Xiao found out that the old lady of the Xiao family had been loyal to the Xuanwu Legion, and he was also a colonel.
It's just that in a battle, Mrs. Xiao was injured in the leg and had to retire from the army, and since then she has started doing business, which has also made the Xiao family look good today.
Moreover, with the relationship between the army and the army, many places in the Xiao family are extremely convenient.
What made Lin Xiao relieved was that the Xiao family didn't seem to have anything to do with the Lin family's fire back then.
In fact, if you think about it, you know that with Old Lady Xiao in charge, no matter how bold the Xiao family is, they can't do that kind of unconscionable thing.
It seems that it will take some time to dig out the black hands behind the nine major groups.
However, over the years, the Xiao family has relied on their own strength to become more and more powerful, and the heirs below have become more and more arrogant, and there have been endless incidents of hurting people and setting fires.
It is precisely for this reason that Xiao Wanchun, with the connivance of the Xiao family, came to trouble the Jiang family.
Lin Xiao felt sorry in his heart.
Now that Old Man Xiao is sick, the Xiao family has become a miasma, and once Old Man Xiao leaves, the Xiao family may not be far from the broken family.
Looking further down, Lin Xiao found an interesting thing.
Yuan Shao, the lieutenant colonel of the garrison in Jiangzhou, turned out to be a subordinate of Xiao Zhan, the old lady Xiao.
"Hehe, that's interesting." Lin Xiao chuckled, the mobile phone rang suddenly, looked at the number, Lin Xiao picked it up, and before he could speak, Tian Buwei's voice came from inside: "Boss Xiao said, let you wait at Jiang's house." ”
"I'm at the Jiang family right now." After Lin Xiao finished speaking, he didn't talk nonsense, hung up the phone directly, and when he looked up again, he saw that the Jiang family was staring at him strangely.
Lin Xiao touched his face: "Is there something on my face?" ”
"Is Xiao Changming here?" Xiao Yun asked nervously.
"I guess so." Lin Xiao nodded, picked up a piece of braised pork, put it in his mouth and chewed it, and said vaguely: "Well, Auntie's craftsmanship is really good, this is authentic Dongpo meat." ”
The Jiang family looked at each other.
This Lin Xiao is too calm, right?
Everyone is here, and he's still like no one?
"Lin Xiao, why don't you avoid the limelight first?" Jiang Shangcun asked tentatively.
"Well, this mapo tofu is also a must, Auntie, with your skills, you can open a restaurant outside." Lin Xiao took another bite of the dish, full of praise, and didn't mention the Xiao family at all.
This time, the Jiang family couldn't sit still.
"Dad, Mom, I believe Lin Xiao will be fine." Jiang Wan suddenly raised her head, responded, and quickly lowered her head, her cheeks flushed with color again.
A short time later, there was a knock on the door.
Xiao Yun and Jiang Shangcun's hearts suddenly lifted.
"I, I'm going to open the door." Xiao Yun stood up tremblingly.
As a result, as soon as I opened the door, I saw a burly strong man.
The other party is 1.9 meters tall and wears a tweed coat, and that block alone gives people a kind of deterrent.
However, seeing that the other party didn't seem to be hostile, Xiao Yun hurriedly asked, "Who are you looking for?" ”
Lu Liang's gaze directly crossed Xiao Yun and looked at Lin Xiao, who was eating: "The Xiao family is here, it seems that the battle is not small, do you want me to help deal with it?" ”
"No, you can stand aside." Lin Xiao picked up a napkin and wiped his mouth, and smiled at Jiang Shangcun: "Uncle, I had a great time eating this meal, thank you." ”
"No, no, no, don't say that." Jiang Shangcun hurriedly waved his hand.
It's shameful enough to involve others in the affairs of the Jiang family, what is it to invite others to dinner?
At this time, there was a commotion downstairs, and soon, someone was heard cursing and quickly going upstairs.
Xiao Changming walked in the front, Xiao Wanchun followed, and they were followed by several strong men with big shoulders and round waists, who were not easy to mess with at first glance.
In the end, Tian Buwei drooped his head like a lost dog, grinding with a bitter face.
"Yo, my dear sister, why do you think you are in trouble? How to live in this kind of place? Before he entered the door, Xiao Changming's voice had already sounded.
Walking to the door, Xiao Changming glanced at the house with disgust, and his eyes quickly fell on Lin Xiao: "You are the kid surnamed Lin?" ”
"Dad, this guy broke my arm joint, and put my shoulder through a chopstick, hurry up and abolish him for me!" Xiao Wanchun straightened his waist and glared at Lin Xiao angrily.
Lin Xiao saw that Xiao Wanchun was wrapped in bandages, and the chopsticks inserted in his shoulder were also pulled out, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a playful smile: "Tian Buwei, it seems that you didn't take my words to heart at all." ”
Tian Buwei suddenly struck a spirit, and his head drooped even lower.
At this time, you are good for me to be airy, okay?
"Haha, boy, I know you have some means and can fight, but can you beat the bullets faster?" Xiao Changming flicked the dust on his shoulders and glanced at Lin Xiao: "I have already informed Lieutenant Colonel Yuan, I believe he will come in a few minutes." I advise you now, if you don't want to be shot, kneel down and apologize now, and then let my people take all your arms away, this matter, it's over, otherwise, don't blame me for not reminding you. ”
"Xiao Changming, this matter has nothing to do with Lin Xiao." As soon as he heard Xiao Changming's words, Xiao Yun suddenly became anxious: "This is our own business, not other people's business." ”
Xiao Changming narrowed his eyes and glanced at Xiao Yun: "Little sister, after so many years, you are still so obsessed, I really don't understand, what's so good about this kind of hard life?" Alright, when we've got this little bastard cleaned up, we'll sit down and talk about it. ”
Xiao Changming's speech was not as frivolous and arrogant as Xiao Wanchun's, but there was a murderous aura between his words, giving people an invisible pressure.
"Xiao Changming, right?" Lin Xiao picked up a toothpick, put it in his mouth, and shook his head slowly, "It's a pity, it's a pity." ”
"What a pity?" Xiao Changming's eyes widened.
Lin Xiao raised his eyelids: "It's a pity that Old Man Xiao has been fighting horses for half his life, killing enemies for the country for several years, but he has an iron courage and loyalty, but there are you juniors who don't know the so-called, you say, isn't it a pity?" ”
"What did you say?" Xiao Changming's eyelids tightened: "You, how do you know?" ”
Lin Xiao spit out a piece of shredded meat picked out of his mouth: "I not only know the past of Old Man Xiao, but also know that your Xiao family is good-looking, hey, a huge Xiao family, it may be okay to be reckless and majestic outside, but it is difficult to protect itself, but it is a strong outside." ”
"You, you ......" Xiao Changming's eyes finally showed a look of horror.
