Chu Xiong asked Chu Tiankuo to take a leave of absence on the seventh day of the new year, saying that some of his old friends were going to see him off, so he wanted to take Chu Tiankuo with him. So that those former colleagues can help Chu Tiankuo in the capital in the future.

It was agreed that it would be two o'clock in the afternoon. But at the end of the day, Chu Xiong and Chu Tiankuo went to the box of Chu Tiankuo's own restaurant to wait first.

Not long after Chu Xiong and the others arrived at the box, General Lin arrived. So, Chu Xiong and Chu Tiankuo accompanied General Lin to drink tea and chat in the box.

"Tiankuo is twenty-five years old this year. Think about when you adopted him, he was only five years old, right? After so many years, it's not easy for you to pull him. Now, he should also provide for your old age. Why do you have to go back to live on your own? ”

After chatting for a while, General Lin couldn't help but persuade Chu Xiong to stay.

Although there are many old friends in the capital, there are not so many who can be said to be close.

"yes. It's been twenty years. Back then, my wife was the one who took care of him the most. ”

Chu Xiong said with a sigh, and the last topic involuntarily shifted to his own lady.

With a 'bang', the door of the box was suddenly pushed open.

I saw a gorgeously dressed woman with vermilion hair, ignoring the dissuasion of the man next to her, staggered in, and asked Chu Tiankuo eagerly, "Are you adopted?" You're not his biological child? ”

The three people in the room were all taken aback by the sudden situation.

Chu Tiankuo's face couldn't help but become stern.

"Who are you? Is it just trespassing on someone else's place? ”

Chu Tiankuo couldn't do anything to a woman, so he had to question the man who accompanied him sharply.

However, the man did not reply, and he also looked excited.

Seeing this situation, Chu Tiankuo's brows couldn't help frowning. They were talking about old things, and they were naturally not talking about private matters, so they didn't feel the need to let people stay in front of the door.

But I didn't expect that someone actually broke into the door?

He looked at the way the two men were dressed, resisting the urge to draw their swords.

The high-quality silk and satin, the head of the delicate Zhuyan series, although the man is not angry, but exudes a strong official authority, all show that these two people are not simple people.

"I'm sorry. Below is Chengen Hou Liu Yunxuan. She is the Humble Jing Mu Clan. We were abrupt, and there was a reason for it. ”

Cheng Enhou hurriedly grabbed Mrs. Cheng Enhou, who wanted to run to Chu Tiankuo, patted her hand soothingly, and said apologetically.

The two people who broke in were indeed Cheng Enhou and his wife.

They had been waiting for the results of the investigation. However, in the Zhenwei army outside the capital, there was really nothing unusual about Chu Tiankuo's identity.

Now we can only wait for the results of the investigation on the border city. However, the border town is a long way away, so even if you are fast, you have to take into account the weather conditions, road conditions, etc.

What's more, the investigation was still twenty years ago, so naturally the results were not so fast.

Mrs. Cheng Enhou wanted to secretly go to see Chu Tiankuo many times, but was stopped by Cheng Enhou.

This time, she couldn't help it.

After hearing that Chu Tiankuo's father was going back to the border city, so his old friends came to this restaurant to see him off, she begged Cheng Enhou to see people first.

Cheng Enhou looked at Mrs. Cheng Enhou who looked haggard, and he couldn't control his desire to see people, so he agreed.

So, they rushed to this restaurant and booked the box next to Chu Tiankuo and them.

It may be that the son is next door, and Mrs. Chengenhou endured it for a long time, this time it was separated by a wall. She just couldn't hold back.

Therefore, she stood at the door of Chu Tiankuo's box, wanting to wait for the people inside to come out, pretending to bump into it, and then get acquainted with each other.

However, I listened to them talk at the door for a while, but no one came out. They were about to give up in disappointment, and when they were about to leave, they heard the words that Chu Tiankuo was not Chu Xiong's biological son but adopted.

So, Mrs. Chengenhou, who was shocked, rushed in without holding back.

When everyone heard that it was Cheng Enhou and his wife, they looked at each other a few times, and finally had to maintain etiquette and greet each other.

"I don't know what the virtuous couple do?"

After seeing the salute, General Lin, who had the largest official position present, asked politely.

Cheng Enhou is a super-grade noble, and he is also a secretary of the ministry, and belongs to the civil officials. General Lin is a good and brave general of Zheng Erpin, and belongs to the military attaché. Therefore, the two have never crossed paths.

Moreover, General Lin was not enough to go to the court to discuss matters, so neither of them had officially met in person. General Lin only heard of Cheng Enhou more than his name.

As for Chu Xiong and Chu Tiankuo, they are lower than General Lin's official positions, and they have never seen them.

"What a rash day today. How offended. However, it is really my wife's heart. I lost a child in my family before, I guess you've heard of it, right? ”

Cheng Enhou was also quite embarrassed when he saw this situation.

The three of them listened, and looked at each other a few times.

Chu Xiong naturally didn't know anything about it.

General Lin has a lot of contacts with his wife, but he has heard people mention this long-term matter.

Chu Tiankuo paid more attention to the Chengenhou Mansion because of the matter of Liu Wenli last time, and knew about this matter.

"When General Chu and his wife were young, they looked very similar. I just heard that General Chu was adopted by Master Chu, so my wife will inevitably have some gaffes. Cheng Enhou hurriedly explained.

After hearing this, everyone understood Mrs. Chengenhou's behavior of breaking into the door. Therefore, the mood of the crowd can be regarded as calming down.

So, everyone invited Cheng Enhou and his wife to sit down. Mrs. Chengenhou leaned closely on Chu Tiankuo and kept looking at him.

Chu Tiankuo could only keep a straight face.

Although everyone sat down, no one spoke for a long time.

Cheng Enhou and his wife have been staring at Chu Tiankuo without blinking their eyes.

It's too similar, it's too similar, the eyebrows and eyes are very similar to Mrs. Cheng Enhou when she was young, but the contours of her face are a little like Cheng Enhou.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

After a long time, Chu Tiankuo was impatient, so he said, "Master Hou is too worried. Over the years, many children have been lost, and many people have had similar situations. The noble son was lost in the capital, but I was adopted by my father in a small town near the border city. It is impossible for a small child to cross thousands of miles in any way. ”

"There's a reason for that. Today, I don't care about the ugliness of my family, so I'll tell you everything. ”

The more Cheng Enhou looked, the more he felt that Chu Tiankuo was pleasing to the eye, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that it was his own child.

After all, there is a sense between parents and children.

Seeing that Cheng Enhou was going to talk at length and talk about private matters, General Lin was naturally inconvenient to listen to other people's family affairs.

So, he offered to represent Chu Xiong and them, and first entertained the guests who came over one after another.

Chu Tiankuo had no choice but to take Chu Xiong and Cheng Enhou and his wife to the attic-like room on the third floor where he handled his daily affairs. After all, the privacy of that house is superb.
