Zhiqian complained, "A week's confinement is enough for me, I thought there would be nothing to do, but you don't know how the second brother treated me." I'll just say, from top to bottom in this family, there is no one who doesn't say anything about me, only the second brother doesn't say anything, I am still grateful in my heart, but this guy is holding back. ”

"What's wrong?" Tao Tao became curious.

"What's the matter, in the past, he helped me deal with my father, and he also helped me do my schoolwork, but since I pushed you, he doesn't care about me anymore, and it doesn't work for me to beg in a low voice, and then I woke up to a clear sentence, I didn't offend him, I offended you. Everybody knows he's the best for you. ”

Tao Tao didn't say anything, but looked at the night sky from afar, when he was a child, laughing and scolding, all by his momentary temperament, how can he be so arbitrary now. Don't look at the third brother who often bullied her when he was a child, in fact, he still feels sorry for her. It's like he said himself, he can bully as much as he wants, and others can't move a finger. This is the calf guard. The people of the Pei family all protect their calves.....

"Third brother, when are you going to leave?"

"Let's see...... I want to accompany my mother when I come back this time, and I want to take her away if I can. ”

"Then the second brother has to be anxious with you."

"How can he have that time to care about me, dealing with the old guys in the business bookstore is enough for him to be busy."

"You're not going to come back and help him?"

"I'm not that material...... either"

"The second brother is not that piece of material, but he still picked it up." Speaking of this, Yuan Qian didn't plan to take the road of business at the beginning, and Pei Zhuoyun didn't have high hopes for him. On the contrary, Zhiqian was cultivated as a successor, but Zhiqian's mind was not on this at all, and he often coped with errands, Pei Zhuoyun sent him abroad in a fit of anger, asking him to experience abroad and learn the way of doing business, but he himself carried his family behind his back and changed medicine. Pei Zhuoyun could only let him go after he found out, he couldn't go over and arrest him back, so the thoughts he put on him could only be taken back.

The business bookstore poured half of his life's efforts, for the successor, of course he had to choose one of his sons, just like that, he found Yuan Qian, at that time Yuan Qian's friends were all people who were engaged in learning, and he was also interested in education. He also worked as a teacher for a few years, and his dream at that time was not to fill the world with peach and plums, but to give people knowledge as much as he could. Even now, most of his friends are scholars.

I don't know how he compromised, and finally gave up his ideals and followed Pei Zhuoyun to learn business, Yuan Qian is a person with perseverance, at that time, no matter when Tao Tao went to him, he had a thick account book by his side. I heard that in order to get familiar with the business of the business bookstore as soon as possible, he stayed up until the second half of the night every day.

I also cried a lot at that time, and later because of the strong opposition of the directors within the bookstore, because of the reform, Pei Zhuoyun had to assign it to the peripheral business department of the bookstore, Mingsheng Steamship.

I have to admit that his mind and foresight, Mingsheng's first ship was a second-hand cargo ship bought, but because the route was almost completely monopolized by the British, he converted the cargo ship into a passenger ship, and it is until today that Mingsheng's first passenger ship was born, and it is said that it is now officially operational.

Zhiqian nodded at Tao Tao, "Speak for him again?" ”

"Am I telling the truth?" Tao Tao lowered his head and kicked the pebble in front of his feet.

Zhiqian sighed when he saw her like this, "The eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law are both beauties, and I am so stressed." ”

"Why is the third brother also thinking about getting married? Mother said that if you brought back the blonde and blue eyes, she wouldn't let you in. ”

"Mother just said that, if I really take it back, can she still deny it? Besides, the blonde and blue-eyed one is really not very good-looking. ”

"Tao Tao ......" Zhiqian and Tao Tao walked to Jiangxue Xuan together.

"Huh?"

"Don't blame the second brother...... He also had no choice. ”

Tao Tao paused, "I know." Then he left without looking back.

After Yuan Qian returned to Shanghai, he didn't even have a chance to rest, so he attended the general meeting of shareholders of the Commercial Press. Because of the unfortunate death of Chairman Pei Zhuoyun, the position has been vacant, in order to stabilize people's hearts, the board of directors held a general meeting of shareholders to elect a new chairman of the board.

Yuan Qian didn't expect to have much right to speak, but he was still divided into two factions internally, one group advocated that Yuan Qian should be in charge for the time being, and the other group advocated that Ren Jinlun, the second-in-command of the Commercial Press, should be in charge.

Yuan Qian is not in the Commercial Press, and his equity is even smaller, even if Pei Zhuoyun holds 25% of the equity, but Yuan Qian cannot inherit this part.

So in the process of voting by show of hands, Ren Jinlun defeated Yuan Qian by an overwhelming margin. As long as it is beneficial to the development of the Commercial Press, Yuan Qian does not care about the position of this director. His greatest wish at the moment is to develop and grow the Mingsheng Steamship, because this is not only his wish, but also his father's wish.

It's just that he thought about this matter too simply, and just a few days after the election of directors, news came out that Pei Zhuoyun secretly funded Yao Yuan to bribe the election before his death, and forced the distributors of the Commercial Book Company to buy the government bonds issued during his reign. Now, Yao Yuan has absconded, and the claims in the hands of those buyers are a pile of blank paper.

With the victory of the Zhao family and the defeat of Yao Yuan, the debts of the government that bought the Yao family, now Zhao Shiming does not admit it, and the claims in their hands are like blank paper, and they can only find the commercial bookstore to theorize.

And Ren Jinlun even claimed to convert 25% of Pei Zhuoyun's shares into cash, but he still couldn't repay the losses of these people. In the end, they had no choice but to find Yuan Qian.

Yuan Qian couldn't easily admit this matter, because he had never heard his father mention it, and it was rumored that it was not Chen Gongqing who bribed the election at first, how did he become his father?

Yuan Qian couldn't believe this, so he went to Chen Gongqing to find out the truth of the matter. But Chen Gongqing avoided it, which was unexpected by her.

It was Chen Zhihe who received him, "Yuan Qian, I don't recommend that you see your father at this time, after he attended Uncle Pei's funeral, he came back with a heartache." I've been hospitalized and only came back today. Yunhe hasn't necessarily mentioned this matter to you, and she is afraid that you will be distracted when you have been busy recently. ”

"Big brother....." Yuan Qian called big brother, since he and Yunhe got married, he hasn't called him big brother much, and now it's so solemn, he doesn't know how to respond.

"My father must know the truth about this, I just want him to come out and clarify it, I don't want my father's reputation to be ruined."

"Yuan Qian, my uncle's reputation is important, but my father's reputation is not important? Do you know how much pressure my father was under when the news of Yao Yuan's bribery came out? ”

In fact, Chen Gongqing did not appear on the day of the board election, and Yuan Qian should have thought that the Chen family would not come forward to clarify this matter. Still, he had a glimmer of hope. If nothing else, he used to be a group for warmth, and he married his daughter to him. At this time, even for the sake of mutual benefit, it should be expressed. However, they did not ......

At the beginning, for the sake of 10% of the shares of the Commercial Bookstore, Chen Gongqing even married his daughter, so what can he not do now?

Yuan Qian didn't say anything, got up and said goodbye. As soon as he came out, he ran into Yunhe who came back, he just nodded slightly, wiped Yunhe's shoulder and left. Waiting for Zhihe to send Yuanqian back, Yunhe stood in front of the foyer.

"Everyone is gone, why are you still standing here?" The sum pushed Yunhe.

"Brother...... What is Yuan Qian here for? ”

"Come and see my father." Zhihe raised his leg and walked towards the house, and Yunhe followed, "You lie, he doesn't even know about his father's illness." ”

"Can't you hear about it from anyone else?"

"Brother, don't think I don't know, so many people go to the business bookstore to make trouble, who doesn't know?" Does this have anything to do with my father?

"Yunhe, don't talk nonsense." Zhihe pulled Yunhe, "Father just took medicine, don't provoke his old man's displeasure." ”

Yunhe shook off his arm, "I'll ask my father, didn't he want me to marry Pei Yuanqian at the beginning, why did he turn his face so quickly?" Or is it that this time, he has found some other buyer and wants to sell me again? ”

"Yunhe ......"

"Why are you not allowed to talk about everything after you have done it? Now that my father holds the shares of the Commerce Bureau, but he doesn't stand on Yuan Qian's side, what do others think? Why is he not afraid of criticism? What else do you have in your heart besides power and money? ”

"Yunhe...... You forced me to say it. Don't think I don't know, your marriage with Pei Yuanqian is just a cover, and the reason why my father is so determined is to find a way out for you. Now is the best time for you to leave the Pei family. ”

"Brother...... Even if my marriage with Pei Yuanqian is in name only, it is our business, and we will solve it ourselves instead of relying on you to use this means. Let me tell you, I will not leave Pei Yuanqian, not now, and not in the future. You don't want anything more from me. ”

It's ironic now, the marriage relationship she has been bent on is nothing more than a joke in the eyes of her father and brother. She hated it so much, hated her father's cruelty, hated her brother's reality, didn't she once call Yuan Qian a brother, but now she abandoned Yuan Qian for that benefit.

When Yuan Qian came out of the Chen Mansion, raindrops fell in the sky, and he held an umbrella for him, but he pushed it away, and walked a long way alone, and then the rain became heavier and heavier, and he was wet all over, and he got into the car after repeated pleading.

Ji Ming drove the car back to Pei's mansion, Yuan Qian looked at the busy figure outside and asked, "Who is here?" ”

"It's Miss back."

"Oh......" Yuan Qian didn't say anything more, and got out of the car. Hurried back to the room. Ji Ming trotted and didn't keep up, and Yuan Qian rushed back to his room as soon as he entered the house.

Tao Tao saw him when he came down to count his luggage, "My second brother is back?" ”

"En......" Jiming stood in the living room for a while, but Yuan Qian still didn't come out. Tao Tao looked at the closed door and said to him, "Go change your clothes, don't look back and catch a cold, if the second brother calls you, I will let Peaches inform you." ”

That's when he withdrew......
