Chapter 350: Legacy
How long has it been since Xia Zhijiu came back, thinking about the inheritance so quickly, but the old man refused to say anything when he was not there before, heh! This is too biased.
No one knew what Lin was thinking, but Xia Renchuan and Xia Chenxi, who were sleeping back on the other side, were very unhappy.
They slept late at night, and when they got up in the morning to have breakfast with the old man, it was just to deal with it, and when they were finished, they naturally had to come back and go back to sleep, and then the two of them had just fallen asleep for a long time, and they were woken up by the servant.
"Grandma is really, the two of them just say it, is it possible that the two of us can have a share of the two of us." Xia Chenxi rubbed her forehead dissatisfiedly as she spoke.
What she hates the most is that someone disturbs her sleep, but grandma does this every time.
Xia Renchuan, who was walking in front of Xia Chenxi, sneered twice when he heard her words, and then said: "It's not that grandpa is biased, he didn't leave anything for the two of us, the same grandson, the difference is so big." ”
He knew at a very young age that his grandfather didn't like their two brothers and sisters, and the only people he liked were Xia Zhijiu and Xia Cheng, no matter how hard they tried, they would never be able to catch up with their Xia Zhijiu and Xia Cheng's status in his heart.
He didn't know why his grandfather was so partial, only his grandmother told them that Xia Zhijiu and Xia Cheng were not good people, and the existence of the two of them would only rob him of the Xia family's things, so he never had a good face for the two of them.
"Say a few words, be careful of being heard, say a few words to you in front of grandpa, and you will suffer when the time comes." Xia Chenxi said and looked at Xia Renchuan with some disdain.
His brother just speaks regardless of the occasion, if it is in his own room, of course he can say whatever he wants, and he dares to say this in the corridor at this time, and it will not be long before it reaches the ears of his grandfather when he hears it by the servant.
Xia Renchuan snorted twice after listening to Xia Chenxi's words, and after all, he didn't say anything more, only quickened his pace.
And downstairs, the old man was talking to Xia Zhijiu.
"Zhijiu, in fact, you should understand, grandpa hopes that you can inherit the Xia family, what do you say is good about being a teacher?" The old man said and looked at the grandson in front of him helplessly, he had never understood him.
At that time, he wanted to learn business on the ninth day of the summer solstice, with his intelligence, he could take over the company with more guidance after graduation, but at that time he chose to be a teacher, he felt that he could, but he didn't dare to force this sensitive grandson too much.
So after only saying two words, he agreed, thinking that he would find an opportunity to study business in the future.
Xia Zhijiu was silent when he listened to the old man's words, and no one knew what he was thinking in his heart.
Looking at Xia Zhijiu's appearance, the old man sighed again and said in a low voice: "Grandpa is old, Ouyang Mu told me some time ago that he wanted to go back to France to accompany his wife and daughter, so ......"
Therefore, the Xia family's company always has to be inherited, and the best candidate is Xia Zhijiu, after all, among all the grandchildren, only Xia Zhijiu is an adult.
"Grandpa, I won't take over the company, I think it's good for me to be a teacher, and the company's affairs will be handed over to Xia Cheng in the future, he will do better than me in this regard." Xia Zhijiu said with a faint smile on his face, but there was no smile in his eyes.
His dream is to be a teacher, a long time ago, Yun Sheng also hoped that he could take over the Xia family's company, and she left her because she insisted on going her own way and chose to be a teacher.
Now after so many years, he still insists on his dream, he doesn't want to give up his dream, he also wants to continue to be a teacher and fulfill his mother's unfulfilled dream......
The old man sighed heavily when he listened to Xia Zhijiu's words, and when he looked at his grandson like this, he knew that no matter what he said, he would not change his mind.
"Xia Cheng is only a freshman in high school this year, he is still a long time away from graduation, such a long time, do you think grandpa can afford to wait? Can the company afford to wait? The company is the work of grandpa's life. The old man said and frowned, looking at Xia Zhijiu with some sadness.
He is already old, and he doesn't have the decisiveness and energy of his youth, so he can only pin the same on the younger generation, if Xia Yun is here, everything will be different, but it's a pity......
Xia Zhijiu lowered his head and didn't speak, of course he knew that Xia Cheng was only a freshman in high school this year, and it was still early to graduate, so the old man might not be able to wait.
Just when the two of them were at a stalemate, Xia Renchuan and Xia Chenxi came over one after the other: "Grandpa, what are you talking about?" ”
Looking at the old man's sad appearance, as well as Xia Zhijiu's contemplative appearance with his head down, it is estimated that it really has something to do with the inheritance, Xia Chenxi was excited when he thought of this.
"It's nothing, it's just a casual conversation." The old man watched the two of them approach, and the expression on his face quickly returned to normal, and he drank slowly with a teacup in his hand.
Xia Chenxi rolled her eyes when she heard the old man's words, chatting casually, casually chatting about why there is no maid here, for fear that others will not be able to listen to it?
Xia Renchuan set his eyes on Xia Zhijiu's body and said with a smile: "Big brother, you're back." ”
"Hmm." Xia Zhijiu hummed lightly, his eyes were fixed on his teacup from beginning to end, and he didn't look up.
Looking at Xia Zhijiu's attitude, Xia Renchuan was a little embarrassed, but Xia Chenxi next to him pulled him to sit down, and then looked at the old man and smiled: "Grandpa, I haven't talked to you for a long time You and the eldest brother are chatting here, don't mind if I'm next to you?" ”
"You want to sit here, can I stop you?" The old man glanced at her lightly as he spoke, and then turned his head away from looking at her.
Xia Chenxi clenched her fists and didn't speak, the old man's words made her a little embarrassed, but she didn't dare to talk back, no matter how unhappy she was, she could only hold it in her heart in the end.
Xia Renchuan and Xia Chenxi came over, and Old Man Xia naturally didn't say anything about the company's affairs, and the atmosphere in the hall was very embarrassing for a while.
"Zhijiu, you can help me back to the study." The old man sat up from his seat as he spoke, waited for Xia Zhijiu to hold him before turning his head, looked at Xia Renchuan and Xia Chenxi and said, "The two of you have time here to listen to us chat, you might as well go back and study hard, and you are not afraid of losing face in Zhicheng Middle School." ”
Most of the children in Zhicheng Middle School are not in a bad situation, and some of them have particularly good grades, and they are admitted by exception, and their grades are not bad no matter how bad their grades are.
But looking at Xia Renchuan and Xia Chenxi, that achievement is really a bit miserable, but this is not to blame them, after all, no one controls them, and most of the people around them used to be like that, so they will not put their hearts on studying.
Xia Renchuan was a little angry when he heard the old man's words, and seemed to want to say something, but was quickly stopped by Xia Chenxi: "Grandpa, we know." ”
The old man looked at Xia Chenxi and responded, and only then did he go upstairs with a cold face with Xia Zhijiu's support.
"What's wrong with our grades, grandpa has never cared about us, and when we ask about our grades, it's a reprimand if it's a little worse." The more Xia Renchuan spoke, the more angry he became, and his face was full of displeasure.
The old man never cared about their grades, grandma was more accustomed to them, and the grades were also lip service and never took action.
In this high society, if the children of any family do not have a tutor, if grandpa cares about them, he should also hire a tutor for them, but grandpa has never been.
Xia Chenxi frowned when she heard Xia Renchuan's complaints, and said coldly for a long time: "If your grandfather hears this, it is estimated that he will have to train his grandmother and mother together." ”
The old man didn't even care about his favorite Xia Zhijiu and Xia Cheng in this regard, let alone the two of them, of course, it must be because Xia Zhijiu and Xia Cheng didn't need a private teacher in the first place.
But no matter what, the Xia family won't even be able to afford to hire a tutor, if they really love to study, even if they invite three or four tutors back, it is estimated that the old man will not say anything, but who can blame them for not having the mind to study.
If Xia Renchuan really said that just now, what the old man would say immediately was that grandma didn't take care of them, and even Li Jiajia would be implicated if he was angry.
"What I'm about to say is the truth." Xia Renchuan was obviously very unwilling, and his face was full of anger.
He thought that although he was not as good as Xia Zhijiu, he was definitely not worse than Xia Cheng, why did the old man's attitude towards them be so different.
Xia Chenxi rolled her eyes at Xia Renchuan, her brother was really an idiot, and he didn't understand what to say and what not to say.
Xia Renchuan was angry at this time, and he didn't notice Xia Chenxi's expression at all, and of course he didn't know what she was thinking.
You are on the other side, Gu Xizi led the way by the maid to a room at the far end of the corridor.
The layout in the room is very elegant and simple, and it can be seen that the owner is also a very gentle woman, and Li Jiajia is indeed so.
Just when Gu Xizi was looking at the furnishings in the house, the bedroom door was suddenly opened, and then he heard Li Jiajia's gentle voice coming: "I heard the maid say that you came over just now." ”
Because the old man asked people to bring her up, of course, the maid who usually takes care of Li Jiajia walked to the front to tell her first, after all, she is not in good health, and she usually gets up late, and the maid is afraid that it is estimated that she will have to wait for Li Jiajia to get up when she comes up.
"Hello aunt, Zhijiu and grandpa are talking, and I don't understand, so I'll come and see you." Gu Xizi smiled a little embarrassedly as he spoke, after all, it was really bad to disturb others early in the morning.
Li Jiajia smiled, took her hand and said softly: "Usually few people come to see me, thank you for your willingness to accompany me, can you come over often if you have time in the future?" ”
Because of her health, she rarely went out when she was not married, and there were fewer opportunities to go out after she got married.
So Gu Xizi was able to accompany her at this time, she was really happy.
"As long as my aunt doesn't dislike it, I will often come to accompany you in the future." As soon as the words came out, Gu Xizi wanted to slap himself.
It's enough to come this time, and if she comes again, she really doesn't want to, and she's not really Xia Zhijiu's girlfriend.
Li Jiajia listened to Gu Xizi's words and suddenly laughed: "It's too late for me to be happy, how can I dislike it, the only person who can say a few words to me is the maid, if you come, you can accompany me." ”
Listening to what Li Jiajia said, Gu Xizi almost subconsciously asked, "Aren't Xia Renchuan and Xia Chenxi accompanying you?" ”
The two of them are Li Jiajia's biological children, so it's impossible not to accompany Li Jiajia usually.
"The two of them, ......" mentioned that her child Li Jiajia was in a trance for a moment, but after a while, she returned to normal, and said with a smile, "The two of them are usually a little busy, and they don't have much time." ”
Gu Xizi frowned when she heard Li Jiajia's words, she didn't doubt Li Jiajia's words, but she just felt that Li Jiajia's expression seemed to be something wrong when she mentioned her children.
