Chapter 035: Uncontrollable
The meeting between Qi Tong and Old Man Guo was postponed by a day. When he arrived at the Guo family's compound, Guo Roumei and Shu Ting, husband and wife, had already arrived. After Guo Roumei got out of the car, Shu Ting drove the car away.
"My daughter-in-law has been handed over to you, send her home safely." He said to Qi Tong before leaving.
Guo Roumei took Qi Tong's arm and walked to her grandparents' house. The last time she pulled back the same arm, it seemed like it was in the last century. Things are, people are, and hearts are wrong, but that's it.
Old man Guo is already waiting. He lay on a chaise longue in the yard, looking at the blue sky through the leaves of the vines, not knowing what he was thinking.
Next to him, there were two chairs.
"Hello grandpa!"
"Hello Grandpa Guo!"
Qi Tong and Guo Roumei greeted each other at the same time.
Old Man Guo looked at them, nodded slightly, and said, "Sit." ”
Qi Tong and Guo Roumei went over and sat down on the chair next to them.
Without waiting for Qi to say anything to them, Old Man Guo opened his mouth and said, "Look, is this sky blue or not? ”
He said to himself: "A few years ago, this sky was gray every day. I told Min Zhao about it. Min Zhao told me to relax, saying that this is the characteristic of our economy, and we have no family background, so we can only develop first and then govern. Sacrifice the environment in exchange for economic take-off, and then in turn clean up the environment. My mind can't keep up with the changes of the times, so I can only sit here and wait for death. I can't take care of you young people. ”
Qi Tong didn't expect that before his ass was hot, Old Man Guo showed himself the hole cards.
"Grandpa, aren't we regretting it?" Guo Roumei said.
"Even if you regret it, it's just words. If you make a new choice, there is no choice. This is a necessary sacrifice made by developing countries in order to develop. Look, isn't the sky blue now? It's as if nothing had happened. This day, year after year, is indeed insignificant to the entire history of human development. Not to mention the history of the development of the earth and the universe. We humans are so small. Old man Guo said.
He looked at Qi Tong and said, "Qi Tong, you are an understanding person. You know that if you want to climb up, you can't do it without a little wrist. If he wants to make some achievements, he has to work hard. And he did make a difference. This blue sky has a credit to your brother Guo. I heard Xiaomei talk about your family's affairs, and I also asked Min Zhao. I sympathize with your plight, but I'm sorry I can't help much. ”
"Grandpa Guo, do you mean that if someone can make a greater contribution to this world, they can ignore the harm he has caused to this world?"
"You can understand it that way. Fundamentally speaking, our society is still a jungle society of the jungle of the jungle. We sympathize with the weak and will help them, but we can also sacrifice them if necessary. ”
"Then you think that our Qi family is weak?"
"Qi Tong, if you are strong enough, then it is our Guo family who will be pressed and beaten. You won't ask me for help. ”
"Help...... Grandpa Guo, how long have you not been in charge? ”
"There are successors to our Guo family, and I have been nursing for a long time."
Qi Tong smiled. He stood up and said, "In that case, there is nothing more to say. Grandpa Guo, goodbye. Xiaomei, I'll call my eldest cousin in a moment and ask him to pick you up. ”
After he finished speaking, he turned and left.
Guo Roumei followed and stood up, not chasing, not chasing. She said anxiously: "Grandpa, Brother Qi Tong-"
"Xiaomei, you don't have to speak for him. He has rejected you again and again, so that we can't hold our heads up in Wangcheng. In ancient times, your brother was going to duel him. The Qi family and our Guo family have long been incompatible. ”
"Grandpa!"
"Xiaomei, you're still too simple. The Qi family is a smiling tiger, selling dog meat on the head of a sheep. You have been deceived by them. They are demons who eat people and do not spit out bones. On the surface, he is kind to others and is attached to him everywhere. In fact, it is to make things easier for yourself. ”
"Grandpa, it's not like that. You must have been deceived. ”
"Xiaomei, grandpa is tired. If you're okay, accompany your grandfather to see the blue sky and white clouds. If there's something to do, go ahead and get busy. ”
"Grandpa!"
"Xiaomei, grandpa has never done anything terrible in his life. I'm sure your brother is the same, he knows it. Your brother is the kindness of a woman. If I had changed, I would have dealt with that woman as soon as possible, and I would have allowed her to have a confrontation between the real and fake Monkey King? ”
Guo Roumei suddenly felt so tired. She found that she didn't know her family at all. She stared blankly at her grandfather, the kind and loving grandfather, speechless.
Old Man Guo was ruthless and said, "Xiaomei, you are so old, I don't think I need to hide some things from you." That's the way the world is. Big fish eat little fish. You've been working in colleges and universities, so you don't know, this world has always been like this. From ancient times to the present day. ”
"Grandpa, don't use me as an excuse. What I do with him is my business with him. There are no family grievances involved. The ancients all said that a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way. ”
"Therefore all the gentlemen are poor. Confucius almost starved to death. Their so-called righteous men and gentlemen, in addition to chanting poems and making the moon every day, sigh that they have never met talents, and are compassionate and compassionate, how much have they really contributed to this society? ”
Guo Roumei took a deep breath and said, "Grandpa, I'm no longer a child. I know this society is not clean. Even though I work in a university, there are some people in it who have a miasma. But the atmosphere of the whole society is good. That's what we're after. What my brother did was not right. He has a way to speak with his political achievements, but it takes time to stay up and be promoted slowly. His so-called work for the welfare of mankind is nothing more than to satisfy his own ambitions and selfish desires. He's personally inflated too much. I thought you'd remind him. Who knows - grandpa, I misread you. ”
"Xiaomei, the word 'profit' is a good thing to promote social development. No profit can not afford to be early. You're still young. When you're older, you'll be able to understand your brother's good intentions and me. For the development of Wangcheng, we are really working hard. ”
"Grandpa, exchanging the conscience of our Guo family for the development of Wangcheng will only hinder the development of Wangcheng in the end. Wangcheng has its own law of development. The price paid by our Guo family is too great. ”
"Xiaomei, if you have nothing else to do, just go, don't block me here." Old man Guo issued an eviction order.
Guo Roumei didn't expect that her grandfather wouldn't be able to listen to anything now. She turned and walked away.
Old Man Guo looked at Guo Roumei's back and sighed softly. He didn't know that his grandson was playing with fire. However, he no longer has the ability to extinguish fires. He can only fully cooperate with Guo Minzhao and follow Guo Minzhao, with both glory and loss.
Guo Roumei came to the gate of the courtyard, and Shu Ting had already arrived. Shu Ting's relationship with Guo Roumei's family is average, so he has to not enter the door of Guo's house. He said with a smile that he was self-aware and knew that he was not treated well by the Guo family.
He got out of the car to help Guo Roumei open the door, and when he saw Guo Roumei's face was not good, he asked, "What's wrong?" Talks collapsed? ”
Guo Roumei nodded and got into the car.
Shu Ting went over to drive and said, "What's the matter?" ”
Guo Roumei learned the conversation between Qi Tong and her grandfather from Shu Ting. Shu Ting smacked his tongue and said, "This is not a collapse of talks, this is a direct declaration of war." ”
"Husband, if the Guo family and the Qi family fall out, who will you help?"
"We are the Shu family. What does this have to do with us? ”
"Husband, don't tease me. Honestly, which side would you help? ”
"I'm definitely on the right side. This time, the Guo family did play with fire and set themselves on fire. Even if the Qi family doesn't make trouble, there will naturally be others who will make trouble in the future. ”
"So, what about our family?"
"Don't worry. The hundred-legged insect dies but does not stiffen. Your Guo family will not be hurt for a while. Besides, maybe your brother is super strong and can reverse black and white. When the time comes, it will be the Qi family who will suffer. ”
"I don't want any of them to be damaged."
"There has always been room for the family to do things. It's okay. Don't worry so much. What do you want to eat today? ”
"I don't have an appetite."
"Then go home. I'll make you your favorite West Lake beef soup. ”
"Good. Thank you, husband. ”
"Silly girl, thank me for what. You are my wife, I don't feel sorry for you, who do I feel sorry for? ”
Qi Tong came out of the Guo family's compound and went straight to the Kara Building. He sat in the office, calmed down, and called Shu Wan.
After listening to what Qi Tong said, Shu Wan was silent for a while, and said: "In this way, Old Man Guo can't control his grandson. So tell your mother all these things. Ask her for her opinion. ”
"Why do you ask her opinion?"
"You salute your enemies before you fight, but not your own mother?"
"Do you think that if we do it with the Guo family, my mother will suffer?"
"Your mother has the handle in their hands. They will challenge the Qi family, and they will definitely repeat the same old tricks. ”
"Listen to you, Kim Mi is the first thing to deal with."
"Hmm. It's better to get her out sooner. ”
"Save it. I just don't know where to place her after being rescued. ”
"Let's get it out first. I want to see where I can place her. ”
"Oh."
hung up the phone and arranged for someone to save people. Shu Wan continued to learn parenting knowledge from sister-in-law and sister-in-law.
Now the two soft little guys are Shu Wan's heart. She thought that she liked Qi Tong to the extreme. I want to stick together every day. It wasn't until I saw these two little boys that I knew what was true, and my heart melted. She longed to hold them and kiss them all day long. Sister-in-law always prevents her from taking the initiative to hold the child. If it becomes a habit, the child has to sleep in his arms. Shu Wan always kisses this and hugs that when her sister-in-law is not paying attention.
Yu Fei called Shu Wan and said, "Shu Wan, I heard that you adopted two baby boys?" ”
"Hmm. Who do you listen to? ”
"My mom- oh, no, my mother-in-law said. She said you snatched your grandfather's baby. You can. Grandpa felt sorry for that baby bump. ”
"Haha."
"Another day, let's meet up."
"You brought the child to my house. I have two of them, and it's not convenient to go out with them. ”
"Okay."
