Chapter 21: The Wealthy Song Family
Manager Zhuo changed his previous attitude of not being salty and indifferent, and responded to the boss's words with a smiling face.
"Xiao Liu, what is the need, just say. By the way, you've bought everything you wanted, and now you're bringing it in? ”
"Okay, thank you." Liu Qianzhou responded softly.
Manager Zhuo and the boss both returned to the store, and Xiao Jie didn't dare to guard Liu Qianzhou anymore, so he could only whisper: "Xiao Liu, then I'll go out first, and you can call me at any time if you have something." ”
Liu Qianzhou nodded, "Okay." ”
Song Cheng and Song Cambridge left Princess Sissi together, and returned to Song's house at the same time.
Every Friday night is the Song family's family dinner, and it is surprising that Song Cheng, who used to be the last to be present, appeared today with the activist Song Cambridge.
The Song family has been rooted in Yundu for generations, and its family power and relationships are intricate, and its business status was already pivotal in the hands of the old man. Now that the Song family's business has expanded, their financial resources and power should not be underestimated.
The old man and his original wife have two sons and a daughter, Song Zhenhai, Song Zhenshan and Song Zhenyu.
The eldest son, Song Zhenhai, has two sons, Song Jiang and Song Cheng. The second son Song Zhenshan is a son and a daughter, Song Cambridge and Song Xinyue, and the third daughter Song Zhenyu is two daughters.
The old man was originally destined to leave early, and the old man, who was nearly fifty years old, married a wife who was the same age as his daughter, and gave birth to his youngest daughter Song Pearl the following year.
And the interesting thing is that the old man's youngest daughter, Song Zhuzhu, is younger than his grandsons Song Jiang and Song Cheng.
The Song family's family banquet gathers children and grandchildren, and the old man's common saying is "family and everything is prosperous", and the Song family has maintained a family banquet every Friday for decades in addition to the dinner party of large and small festivals.
Song Cheng and Song Cambridge arrived home, and the second wife, Zhao Xiaomin, was pulling the eldest wife Jiang Rong to complain.
"Don't you know, when I see my nephew, my heart hurts to death. If I didn't go to Cambridge, I really stayed in the Internet café. ”
The second wife patted her chest and said that the child was not worth it.
"Sister-in-law, tell me, what do you do to raise a child? Just for such a ruthless thing, if you want to die or live, your parents don't want it. Key, my Cambridge, want to be so disobedient, I have to cry to death. ”
The eldest lady Jiang Rong smiled and said with relief: "Don't be sad, didn't your sister-in-law come to Yundu to pick up the child?" Take it back to Xiangcheng and it will be fine. ”
The second wife patted her chest, and her breath was extremely uncomfortable.
"After all, it's the child of the old Zhao family, and I'm distressed to look at it as an aunt, not to mention my brother and sister-in-law."
The eldest lady smiled in return, the eldest lady was born in a famous family, and she was a celebrity who came out of the nobles of the high family, and her natural nobility and elegance left the second wife a distance from Xiangcheng to Yundu.
"Your eldest nephew is studying in Yundu?" The eldest lady asked suddenly.
The second wife nodded: "Yes, master." At the beginning, I gave up a university in the United States and chose Yundu to study for graduate school. The child is obedient, much more worry-free than the little one. ”
When the second wife mentioned the people of her mother's family, she couldn't hold back her words.
The eldest wife is easy to cultivate, and the second wife says that she will listen, and she is really not interested in the topic, and politely changing the topic will not give people the impression of being strong and difficult to get along with.
"That little daughter-in-law is also a poor person, now that she has grown up, she has her own ideas, and she can understand it if she makes some anti-bone actions."
When the eldest lady's words fell, the second wife's face immediately collapsed.
"Sister-in-law, you can't say that, it's like a stray cat picked up outside, fed with delicious food and drink, and when you grow up, you can forage for food, oh, at this time, you don't recognize the owner. Beasts can't betray their masters, and people with affection and righteousness are worse than beasts? ”
As soon as the second wife's words fell, Song Cheng's voice sounded.
"Mom, second aunt."
When the eldest lady heard this, she looked back in surprise.
"Song Cheng is back."
As the eldest lady spoke, she stood up and headed for her son.
The second wife also dropped her words and got up: "Song Cheng came back so early today, the company is busy, right?" ”
Song Cheng nodded: "Yes." ”
The eldest lady had already come to her son's side and arranged his clothes with a gentle smile on her face.
Song Cheng asked in a low voice, "Did you rest well today?" ”
The eldest lady replied with a smile: "I slept for a while during the nap, so I am still in good spirits." ”
The eldest lady was born in Song Cheng and fell ill in confinement, and her body has been dependent on support for so many years. In recent years, the quality of sleep has continued to decline, and most of the time she can't close her eyes all night.
The Song family has put a lot of effort into sleeping for the eldest wife.
Because his mother's health is not good all year round, Song Cheng and his eldest brother Song Jiang still live at home.
"It would be nice to be able to fall asleep." Song Cheng was relieved when he heard this.
Song Cambridge pulled two little girls in, and he heard his high-pitched voice from afar: "Auntie, Mom, we are here." Meixian, Meiyan, say hello to grandma. ”
Song Cambridge was pulling Song Jiang's two daughters.
Song Jiang found out that his wife was cheating in marriage four years ago, and his two daughters were raised in the Song family after the divorce.
The child had just been sent back from school by the driver, and had just bumped into Song Cheng and Song Cambridge in the yard.
The two children of Song Cheng who were cold were afraid, compared to Song Cambridge, they were more close to and liked by the children, so Song Cambridge made trouble with the children in the courtyard for a while before stepping in.
When the second wife saw her son arrive, her eyes immediately became sticky.
The two children ran to the eldest lady, pestering the eldest lady on the left and right, and Song Cheng moved out of the way.
The time was getting late, and the children and grandchildren of the Song family arrived one after another, and the old man appeared under the support of the little lady Chang Xiangru, and a room of children and grandchildren of the Song family greeted each other.
The old man spoke, and asked people to eat in the restaurant.
The old man and his eldest son's family live in the Song family villa, and the second son and third daughter have their own families, which is not far from the Song family's villa.
Although the youngest daughter Song Pearl did not have a family, she thought it was too noisy to have children at home, so she had moved out of the Song family in the past two years, lived outside, and occasionally came back to live with her mother for two days.
At the dinner table, the second wife couldn't help but mention her mother's family, the second wife's family is an ordinary businessman, although it is a rich family in Xiangcheng, but the Zhao family cannot be compared with the eldest wife's mother's family at all.
The two elders of the Zhao family are gone, and there is only one eldest brother in the mother's family. So the second wife is bent on pulling her eldest brother up, but whenever she hears something good, she will never forget her brother and sister-in-law.
There is a talent in her mother's family, and the second wife also has a light on her face.
Otherwise, she is too much worse than the eldest wife, and she usually lacks the confidence to speak.
As soon as the second wife mentioned the matter of the little daughter-in-law of the Liu family, the whole table looked over.
Child daughter-in-law is a new thing for the nobles of the Gaomen, and everyone is very interested.
Song Pearl asked in surprise: "There is still such a thing now, is it legal to raise a child daughter-in-law?" ”
The second wife has never had a good impression of this weird-tempered sister-in-law, but there is no way, who made the family surnamed "Song", and the tone of the response was a little heavy.
"There are human feelings and morals outside the law, this matter is already clear, a helpless country girl, willing to let her enter the door is already to promote her, is she proud? Who gave her the right? ”
Song Pearl took a sip of the fish soup, felt that the fish soup was extremely delicious today, turned to her mother and praised the fish soup, and just gave the second wife directly
The second wife looked at Song Pearl and the little lady, and she didn't dare to vent the anger she ignored.
Song Cambridge smiled: "It's the Liu family who went back on their word, originally the two families acquiesced in this matter, who knows that now that girl has grown up and has grown up with other eyes, and now the two families are unhappy." ”
The dinner table was quiet for a long time, and the eldest lady spoke: "No matter what, the friendship between the two families for many years should not be stiffened because of this matter, and that girl is not good at handling things." ”
The eldest son, Song Jiang, was confused, and finally Song Jiang asked, "Is it the little daughter-in-law of the Cambridge cousin's family?" ”
The Song family is a lot of talkers, and they don't know about the affairs of the second wife's mother's family, and when they mention it at the dinner table, they listen to it beautifully, and they listen to it in the west, and it is really difficult to hear what happened clearly.
Song Cambridge hurriedly replied: "It's my cousin's house." ”
Song Jiang was puzzled: "That child daughter-in-law has no father, why did she become a member of your cousin's family?" She came to the door herself and begged someone to take her in? ”
The creature of child brides hints at the products of the old society, right?
Song Cambridge hurriedly shook his head and explained: "No, the little daughter-in-law of the Liu family, her father, was my uncle's classmate back then. The old classmate died, leaving the old people and children behind, and my uncle also took on this task out of kindness. The repayment of the Liu family is to let the little girl grow up and marry into her uncle's family and be a daughter-in-law to her uncle. ”
Song Cambridge paused, anyway, this is the information he heard from his mother and his uncle and aunt.
Song Jiang was silent and didn't speak.
On the surface, it seems that the Zhao family is not wrong, far from the point of coercion, the two parties were willing at the beginning, but now the Liu family unilaterally repents, which is really unreasonable.
Song Cambridge's words fell, and the treasure sister Song Xinyue held the chopsticks, and suddenly said: "In fact, it was the father of the little daughter-in-law who saved the uncle's family." ”
The second wife immediately interrupted when she heard her daughter's words: "That's irrelevant, your uncle is the good person who thinks of the old love and does it." ”
Song Xinyue bit her chopsticks and stopped talking.
Her mother is very fond of her uncle's family, no matter whether things are right or wrong, in her mother's eyes, her uncle is right.
Song Cheng ate this meal tastelessly, and his mood was inexplicably bad, and in the middle of dinner, he left the table under the pretext of excuses.
Everyone reacted in the topic and asked Song Cheng's whereabouts.
The eldest lady said for her youngest son: "I went to the company." ”
Song Cambridge hurriedly said: "I have to let the second brother run in person at night, then something must be wrong." ”
As soon as I heard that something big might have happened, no one spoke at the dinner table, for fear that if I said more, it would provoke the old man and the chairman to go crazy.
After all, the Song family's business is now Song Cheng supporting half of the sky.
The night is completely enveloped, and the whole city is decorated with colorful neon lights, unaffected by the night.
Song Cheng's car drove to Times Square, the car stopped in the parking lot outside the shopping mall building opposite Princess Sissi, walked across the street by himself, and walked straight to Princess Sissi.
Before Song Cheng arrived at the restaurant, Yuan Jin had already entered the store.
At this point, the restaurant has already closed work, and since it has not officially opened, there is no one on duty at night.
But Xiaojie is still in the store, because Liu Qianzhou has not left yet.
Yuan Jin appeared in the corridor quietly, and Xiaojie was startled when he saw someone.
Thinking that he was dazzled, he rubbed his eyes before confirming that someone was coming.
Yuan Jin made a silent gesture before Xiao Ming's voice, and then he raised his eyes to look at Liu Qianzhou, who was seriously colored.
Xiaojie understood, and immediately followed Yuan Jin out of the corridor.
"You're Mr. Song's assistant Yuan, right? What are you doing here? Xiaojie asked.
Yuan Jin said: "Song Gongzi asked you to go back and rest, and leave it to me here." ”
Xiaojie was surprised: "Huh? ...... owner"
"Go ahead." Yuan Jin's face was slightly serious.
Xiao Jie was suspicious, Yuan Jin dialed Manager Zhuo's phone, and after hearing the manager's call, Xiao Jie handed over the key to the restaurant door to Yuan Jin.
"Xiao Liu's ......"
Xiaojie wanted to say something, but Yuan Jin interrupted him: "I know." ”
"Oh." Jay finally left the restaurant.
