Chapter 1048: The Trap
After the New Year, Tian Shao devoted herself to her new book. The background of this new book is the Minmin/Guo period, and the protagonist is a girl from a martial arts family. Because she was chased and killed by the enemy, she fled from her hometown to Hong Kong City, and then fled to the beautiful country, and finally became the king of the underground forces of the beautiful country after fighting all the way. She was excited to write the book, so she didn't give it to the studio. The same is true, people have also become busy, and they don't go out much since the third year of junior high school.
On the thirteenth day of the first month, Sanya and Liuya returned. Tian Shao looked at the two of them, smiled and reached out to pinch Liuya's face, and said, "Well, it's been a circle for a month when I went home, and it seems that my mother has made up for you during this time." β
Hearing this, Liuya couldn't help but touch her face, and said helplessly: "My mother doesn't know what to stimulate lately, and she eats chicken, duck and fish every day at home during this time." Not only me, but everyone in my family is fat. β
Tian Shao felt that this was a good thing, and said with a smile: "You are all at the age of growing your body now, so you have to eat better." Otherwise, the nutrition can't keep up, and the height won't grow tall. β
When Liuya heard this, she decided to go back to school and eat more meat. Of the six sisters in the family, except for the second sister, she is the shortest.
Because Old Man Mu and others would come to the door every once in a while, and they stayed for most of the day, so Sanya moved back to the front yard and lived in the east wing with Liuya.
Tan Yue came back in the evening and was very happy to see his two younger sisters. Tian Shao is busy writing books at home every day, and now the two sisters are here and there are people to talk to.
When he was sleeping, he said to Tian Shao: "The third sister and the sixth sister are at home, tomorrow I will go to my father's place to eat alone, and you stay at home to accompany them." β
When people are old, they like a lively family, and Mr. Tan is no exception, so I hope that two people will go over to eat during the Lantern Festival. Tan Yue agreed to this before, but now that the two sisters are back, they must take care of the little ones first.
Tian Shao smiled and said, "It's okay, let's go to the old mansion tomorrow and come back after dinner, the old man is old, let's take care of him first." Sanya and Liuya used to spend the Lantern Festival with me, not bad this time. β
Seeing that she was not reluctant, Tan Yue naturally complied with her wishes.
Tian Shao remembered what he said during the Chinese New Year and asked, "Has Tan Xinglian's watch been found, is it real or fake?" β
Tan Yue didn't want to mention this matter before the Lantern Festival, so as not to affect his mood, but Tian Shao didn't hide it when he asked him: "It's true, the watch came in from an irregular channel, but even so, it costs more than nine thousand." β
Tian Shao wanted to laugh when he heard this, smuggling is smuggling, and what are the informal channels: "A watch is more than 9,000, so he is very deep?" β
Tan Yue took a deep breath and said, "He was pulled in at the beginning of last year. Your previous guess was right, and the other party had bad intentions when he pulled him in. If something happens, they will push him out. β
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but scold: "Tan Xinglian, this waste, I really think that there is a pie in the sky, and you can share so much money without doing anything."
This was clearly a trap dug by the other party for him, but Tan Xingli planted it without any suspicion.
Alas, Tan Xinglian is a waste but has his back to the Tan family, and if the amount involved is too large, it will definitely implicate the family. It's also a shame that Tian Shao saw the watch, otherwise if it explodes, the Tan family would definitely have to plant a big heel if they were not prepared at all.
"The other party has a grudge against the Tan family?"
Tan Yue shook his head and said, "I don't know." The other party is very bold, he has involved both of the things you said before, and he has made more than a million dollars in more than a year. β
He didn't know the specific amount, this was what he inferred based on Tan Xinglian's side, and he didn't investigate in depth for fear of startling the snake. This is an economic matter, not under his control, if you know before, you will definitely send the materials directly to the relevant departments. But Tan Xinglian can't act rashly if he is involved, he has to tell Old Man Tan and Tan Xingguo first, and then decide how to deal with this matter.
"When are you going to tell the old man and the eldest brother about this?"
"I'm going to talk about it after the Lantern Festival."
Tian Shao shook his head and said, "This matter should not be sooner rather than later." Tan Xinglian should also be in the small western-style building tomorrow, you tell them about it, just so you can ask Tan Xinglian how much money he took. β
"Okay."
Because Aunt Zhang came back on the sixth day of the first month. There was no need to help prepare the noon meal, Tian Shao and Tan Yue set off relatively late the next day, and arrived at Xiaohong Mansion at nearly eleven o'clock.
Qu Yan was in the living room, and after seeing the two of them, he asked, "The third daughter-in-law, why did you come so late?" β
Tian Shao did not speak.
Tan Yue ignored her, and said to Old Man Tan and Tan Xingguo: "Dad, big brother, I have something to tell you!"
Old Man Tan said casually: "What's the matter, you say." β
Tan Yue shook his head and said, "Dad, let's go upstairs to talk about this, it's inconvenient here." β
There is not only Aunt Zhang on the first floor, but also a guard, and he thinks that the less people know about this, the better. After all, the more people know, the more risk of leakage.
Old Man Tan knew his temperament, nodded and got up. When Tan Xingguo saw it, he immediately stepped forward to help him, and then the father and son went upstairs together.
Tian Shao was about to go to the kitchen to find Bai Churong, but was stopped by Tan Yue: "Xiao Shao, you come along." β
Tan Xingguo was a little puzzled, why did he call Ueda Shao when it was a confidential matter. In fact, Tan Yue didn't have so many ideas, and he didn't want Tian Shao to be affected.
Tian Shao was the last to enter the study, so he naturally closed the door. She thinks that this study should have a soundproof effect, otherwise the loud sound can be heard in the corridor.
After Old Man Tan sat down, he asked, "Third child, you can talk now." β
Tan Yue looked at Tian Shao and said, "This matter should start from the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve. Tan Xinglian went out after lunch that day, and Xiao Shao accidentally saw him wearing a watch on his wrist. β
Tan Xingguo was a little surprised, he remembered that the fifth child didn't wear a watch that day! But maybe he didn't see it clearly.
Old Man Tan frowned and said, "Xinglian has two watches, one was bought by himself, and the other was bought by your Aunt Qu. What, is there anything wrong with these two watches? β
Tian Shao spoke at this time: "Dad, I bought some luxury goods to decorate the faΓ§ade in Gangcheng because I occasionally had to socialize, so I have seen many big brand watches. The watch that Xinglian was wearing at that time was a Rolex. β
Tan Xingguo's face instantly became solemn. If a domestic watch is expensive, it will only cost a few hundred yuan, and Tan Xinglian has two yuan. But Rolex is a world-famous watch, and the price is expensive, where did the old five get the money to buy such an expensive watch.
Old Man Tan asked the core: "Tan Yue, don't beat around the bush, just say where did his watch come from?" β
Tan Yue told the two of them what he had found, and after speaking, he said, "I didn't continue to investigate for fear of startling the snake." Dad, eldest brother, this Mei pulled the fifth child into Gao, and it was clear that she was using him as a scapegoat. Once someone is sent to investigate the incident, he will definitely push the fifth child out. β
Old Man Tan's face turned blue, and his breathing became short.
