302 Greedy Heart (Thank you for the book friend who gave you a good name!)
The Xiao family's mansion facing north and south occupies a very wide area, with a patchwork of corridors, connecting houses in all directions, and gray bricks and tiles are paved on top of the houses, revealing a dull feeling.
Among the three wealthy families in Longnan, the Xiao family has been established for the longest number of years and has the thickest heritage.
The old man of the Xiao family was standing on top of the highest attic in the Xiao family's mansion at this time.
Standing in this attic, you can take in the entire Xiao family, and you can also look at half of Longnan City.
He likes to stand here, this attic is not that high, he deliberately made it taller.
Standing here, all the eyes can see is the area covered by his rights!
Five years ago, when Old Man Xiao celebrated his 70th birthday, his words were all covered with red silk!
Every time he stood here, he felt a sense of satisfaction, the satisfaction of enjoying the rights!
But it's not enough!
He hoped that this attic would be built higher, high enough to have a panoramic view of the entire Longnan City.
At that time, he will be the heaven of Longnan City!
Once he thought of such a scene, the head of the Xiao family, Xiao Hongfei, the old man Xiao, couldn't help but have a smile on his face.
But his smile only showed slightly, and then he stopped.
Because he knew that this day might never come! Because in Longnan City, he still has two opponents.
The Li family and the Guo family!
The Li family is backed by Tianlong Dao, the largest sect in the world, and the lady of the Guo family is also the only daughter of the second room of the Lianchengyan family, and she is an existence that she cannot afford to provoke.
"Old man, the people of the Guo family have sent a gift, do you want to go down and have a look?"
A thin steward went up to the attic with a respectful face and spoke softly in Old Man Xiao's ear.
"No need! just let them put their gifts down. ”
Old Man Xiao waved his hand, he stood here, naturally he had already seen the Guo family's arrival.
"So, how do you reply to them?"
The steward spoke again, and someone from the Guo family came to propose marriage. But the old man of his own family has not been silent, and the young lady has not even taken a step in the past two months, although he has always been good at speculating on the old man's thoughts, but this time he did not dare to make a judgment.
"Tell them that I like the street in the south of the city. ”
Old Man Xiao opened his mouth lightly.
"If you want to marry my family's treasures, how can these things be?"
"Yes!"
The steward nodded, bowed and said, "I'll go down and answer them." ”
"Wait. ”
Old Man Xiao stopped him.
"How is that kid from the Guo family doing now?"
"I heard that now he is locked up and confined and has not shown his face. And Guo Changfu has been running towards the Li family all this time, he should be doing something for his son, right?"
"Woo......"
Old Man Xiao nodded, his eyes showing thought.
'Even if you want to make amends to the Li family, you have to marry my family's granddaughter, it seems that the Guo family will not be able to turn over in the future." Maybe Lin Yue can regret marrying in the past, and with her conditions, it is nothing to marry a daughter and a second marriage. ’
After all, the relationship between the Guo family and the Yan family in Naliancheng is still one layer apart, and after being married for so many years, the relationship between the lady of the Guo family and the Yan family may not be very close, and for the sake of a woman, they should not touch their bottom line.
Thinking about it in his heart, Old Man Xiao waved his hand and let the man in charge go downstairs.
Guo family, Guo Changfu crossed his legs together, neatly peeling melon seeds, and at the same time listened to the reports of his subordinates.
"What street is in the south of the city?"
When he heard the Xiao family's request, Guo Changfu's face couldn't help but show a sneer.
"Sure enough, it is a flying bird that eats and sleeps in the west, and his greedy desire is not satisfied. ”
He waved his hand and let his men go down.
"Madam, with that old man Xiao's temperament, when we ask him, he will definitely slaughter us fiercely!"
Putting the peeled melon seeds in front of his wife, Guo Changfu continued: "Without the help of the Xiao family, we are definitely not the opponents of the Li family, they are in charge, and the father-in-law can't be strong, so we have to abandon the family and leave here." ”
"I know you're reluctant to be here, but the Xiao family is a lion with a big mouth, and it's too ruthless!"
Mrs. Guo frowned, her face displeased. She doesn't care about the property here, it's better to go back to Liancheng if she doesn't have time, and she can go back to her parents' house if she has time.
But she knew that Guo Changfu would definitely be reluctant, he had lost face in the Yan family in order to marry him, and if he abandoned his family and property at this time, wouldn't he be slapping him in the face?
"Moreover, our family Ziyang doesn't want that girl anymore!"
When her son liked it, it was a girl, and if she didn't like it, she immediately became a girl, and this Mrs. Guo was quite on the side of her son.
"And that's not all!"
Guo Changfu shrugged.
"I'm afraid that if we don't please both sides, we will end up with nothing. ”
"And what are you going to do?"
Mrs. Guo doesn't have much research on these things, anyway, she marries a chicken and a dog, and she marries a dog, so you can do it.
"It's not our family Ziyang who killed people, why should we bear it? And we have to pay such a big price?"
Guo Changfu stared at him and replied coldly.
"No one believes what you say! You don't remember when you said that, Li Yuhua was about to smash our door!"
Li Yuhua is Li Jianfeng's father and the pillar of the second generation of the Li family.
They didn't believe it because they hadn't seen it with their own eyes. ”
Guo Changfu said coldly.
"Wait a minute, send someone to send Ziyang to Li's house quietly. ”
"The surname is Guo, what do you want to do?"
Mrs. Guo stopped taking melon seeds and immediately turned her face.
"Madame, don't worry!"
Guo Changfu immediately smiled and patted her hands.
"I'm also trying to make the people of the Li family believe, don't worry, wait for me to follow, and I will never let the people of the Li family hurt our Ziyang. ”
Mrs. Guo glared at the other party for a while, thought about it, and said, "No, I'll go too!"
"Uh...... , too. ”
Guo Changfu thought about it and agreed.
"Then, you say, what if Ziyang is lying?"
"You're still a mother, don't you even believe in your own son?"
"You still said me? Didn't you believe it at the time? I don't know who jumped on my feet and wanted to hit someone?"
"Uh...... , hehe......"
On the night of this day, the back door of Guo's mansion quietly opened, and a carriage went straight to the Li family's mansion along the path, and the three of them got out of the carriage and entered the Li mansion.
After half a ring, the Guo family came out of the Li Mansion with tears in their eyes.
Three days later, above the attic of the Xiao family.
"Master, the Guo family agreed. ”
The steward bowed and said, "The deed on that street in the south of the city will be delivered tomorrow, but the requirement is for Miss Linyue to go and get it." ”
"Oh, where can I get it?"
"Ayuzhuang, the deed is held by the son of the Guo family, and it should be a matter of marriage. ”
"Ayuzhuang? ”
Old Man Xiao nodded.
"It's also the biggest restaurant in town. ”
The steward's reply.
"Well, tomorrow afternoon, let Linyue go to Ayuzhuang. ”
