Chapter 58 The money giver is here
When they heard that the person delivering the money was coming, Li Mi, Cui Heng and Xiao Shiniang all opened their eyes wide and looked curiously at the door of Ascott, but the person outside could not come in at this time. The more anxious he was, the more the waiter tried to stop him from coming in!
"What are you doing? Aren't you doing business? How can you not let people in when doing business? Isn't it okay for me to pay you?"
Xiao Jian didn't come to Xinghua Yanyu Tower often, but he understood the rules of doing business here. It was nothing more than whoever paid more would be the boss. Businessmen were all greedy for money and respected money above all else.
"Mr. Xiao, it's not that we don't let you in, but there are guests in the pavilion right now, and our proprietress is negotiating with the guests! After the guests inside leave, we will naturally invite you in!" said the waiter very sincerely.
"What guests? They are my son and my granddaughter. Let me in! I am here to take them back!"
When he heard that there were guests in the pavilion, Xiao Jicheng immediately thought of Xiao Jinyu and Xiao Xian, and said excitedly.
The waiter was about to stop them, but suddenly he heard Madam Wei's voice coming from inside the hall, "Let Mr. Xiao in!"
After hearing this, Xiao Jian was extremely happy. He glared at the waiter with a serious expression and then ran quickly into the Ascott.
As soon as he entered the hall, he smelled an extremely rich and tempting aroma. Looking up, he saw several young people eating around a long table in the hall. Li Mi and Cui Heng were not familiar to him, but he recognized Xiao Shiniang and Xiao Jinyu, who looked exactly like Alua.
But Xiao Xian was not seen!
But don't worry, as long as my granddaughter is here, everything will be fine.
Thinking of this, Xiao Jian's face immediately filled with smiles, and he called out, "Ayu, come home with me!"
"Who are you? Why should I go back with you?" Xiao Jinyu asked confusedly, as if she didn't know this person.
"I'm your grandfather!" Xiao Jian said gently with a smile, then he thought of something and immediately changed his words, "Oh no, I'm your grandfather! Didn't you call me grandfather a month ago?"
Xiao Jinyu thought about it for a while, and then seemed to remember it. She said, "I remember it now, but didn't you say that I recognized the wrong person? So later I reflected on it carefully and felt that I might have recognized the wrong person!"
Madam Wei was stunned: Isn't he here to give money? How come he doesn't recognize me? What's going on?
Li Mi was eating the cooked meat slices while trying to suppress his laughter.
Xiao Shiniang also looked dazed, and no one knew what she was thinking.
"Oh no, no no no, Ah Yu, you didn't recognize the wrong person. I am really your maternal grandfather. Your mother is indeed the eldest daughter of my Xiao family. In leading the Xiao clan to escape the war and move to Jiankang, your mother has made many contributions. When your great-grandfather was alive, he also said that the eldest daughter of the Xiao family, especially your mother, would not marry outside the family. She is the bloodline of my Xiao family and the pride of my Xiao family!"
Having said this, he looked at Xiao Jinyu with loving eyes and said gently, "Ayu, you are her daughter, so you are too!"
"Oh!"
Xiao Jinyu responded indifferently and stopped talking, eating the blanched beef by herself.
Seeing the white smoke rising from the pot and the aroma of meat wafting in the air, and the people eating happily and with relish, Xiao Jian, who had rushed here after being hungry all morning, suddenly felt hungry and could not help swallowing.
"Ayu, I know you have resentment in your heart, blaming me for not taking care of you and your daughter for so many years, and not taking you back. This is my fault, but now that you are back, let's go home, okay?"
Xiao Jinyu put down her bowl and chopsticks and looked up at Xiao Jian.
"Sorry, I can't leave now!" she said.
"Why can't you leave?" Xiao Jian asked puzzledly.
Xiao Jinyu looked at Madam Wei and smiled slightly.
This smile made Madam Wei feel uneasy: Why are you looking at me? Am I the one who is preventing you from leaving?
"Oh, by the way, it was this Madam Wei who prevented me from leaving because I owed her money, so I was detained here and could not leave Ascott." She said seriously.
Madam Wei choked, and then a light bulb went off in her head, as if she had suddenly realized something.
As expected, Xiao Jian said, "How much? The money is easy to talk about. No matter how much, I will pay it!"
In other words, no matter how much I say, you are willing to pay!
Madam Wei was delighted and quickly continued with a solemn expression, "Five thousand strings of cash! Last night, she and these people stayed in my Yashi Pavilion for a night, eating and drinking, and even ordered my servants to bring them water and medicine. Today, she even set up a small kitchen in my pavilion..."
"Don't say any more!" Xiao Jian no longer had the patience to listen, and quickly called the butler over, "Five thousand strings of cash is five thousand strings of cash, Manager Zhao, go get the money!"
Although Butler Zhao looked surprised, he responded and left quickly. Not long after, he really took out five thousand strings of cash and gave them to Madam Wei.
Madam Wei's heart was filled with a thousand waves in an instant: This is really a fat sheep being slaughtered. I should have said more if I had known this!
"Madam Wei, can my Ah Yu come home with me now?" Xiao Jian turned his gaze to Wei Qi.
Wei Qi, who was still in ecstasy, immediately said, "Of course you can. However, I allow her to go, but whether she is willing to go with you is her business!"
Xiao Jicheng immediately turned his gaze to Xiao Jinyu and saw that she was still eating quite quickly. For some reason, watching these young people eating and smelling the meat made him feel even hungrier.
He has to take her back home quickly, otherwise he will starve to death!
"Ayu, stop being angry and go back with grandpa, okay?" he said anxiously.
Only then did Xiao Jinyu look at Xiao Jian and put away the careless smile on her face.
"In fact, you came to me today just to ask if your son's injury can be cured, right?"
Xiao Jian was stunned, but had to admit that this was indeed his intention.
"You are better than Princess Yunyin. Although you don't want to accept me as a member of the Xiao family, you believe in my medical skills!" She smiled sarcastically, "But shouldn't you beg for help in the right way? Why do you have to say so many insincere words? Don't you feel disgusted?"
Xiao Jian's face suddenly turned dark and he was angry!
"What nonsense are you talking about? How can you, a junior, talk to your grandfather like this?"
Xiao Jinyu looked at him coldly and said no more.
Xiao Jian realized that he had lost his composure, and softened his voice, saying, "Ayu, even if Yunlang made a mistake, he is still your uncle, and he is young and ignorant. It was my grandfather who neglected to discipline him, which led to him being bewitched and making such a big mistake. But there is a saying that it is the greatest virtue to admit one's mistakes and correct them, so why not give him another chance to correct them?
Besides, aren't you fine and unharmed now? "
After hearing this, Cui Heng and Li Mi couldn't help but frown and become angry, and Feng Huang was even more furious.
"Just because you haven't been hurt, can you pretend that nothing happened? Are you worthy enough to call yourself Brother Qing's grandfather?"
Xiao Jinyu stretched out her hand to stop Fenghuang, looked at Xiao Jian and sneered: "So, a sentence of youth and ignorance can easily erase all the mistakes he has made? A sentence of admitting mistakes and correcting them can cost the lives of others as the price for him to reform himself?
So do those who were harmed by him deserve to die?
If I had fallen into his trap yesterday... If my body was in front of you today, would you still say such words? "
She sneered and said,
"Or, you will just say that I deserve to die, and everything about me has nothing to do with your Xiao family, right?"
"you--"
Xiao Jian was so ashamed for a moment, especially when he saw two young scholars present. He felt even more humiliated and wanted to leave, but he couldn't take a step.
"But he is the only heir of our Xiao family. Do you want to see our Xiao family die out? Ah Yu, if your mother were still alive..."
He raised his voice angrily, but before he could finish his sentence, he heard Xiao Shiniang ask painfully, "Grandfather, what are you talking about? Isn't Seventh Uncle your son?"
Seventh uncle? Xiao Xian?
As soon as Xiao Shiniang asked the question, Xiao Jian felt his eyes brighten. A white shadow happened to come out from a side room, gradually walked into the hall, and appeared in front of him like a god.
The man who came was tall, with an elegant posture and a handsome face. Although he was a little thin, his eyes were full of energy and clear, and there was no sign of his former sickly and dying look.
Because there were still toxins in his body, Xiao Jinyu let him soak in a medicinal bath for the whole morning.
Coming out at this moment, Li Mi suddenly felt that Xiao Xian had been reborn, his spirit clear and bright, and he looked like a modest gentleman as gentle as jade.
Xiao Jian was stunned for a moment, and after a long while, he pointed at Xiao Xian and said in disbelief:
"Qi Lang? Are you Qi Lang?"
"Master, it's the Seventh Young Master! Don't you know the Seventh Young Master?" Feng Dong quickly asked.
Yes, he hadn't seen him for a long time. He almost forgot what Xiao Xian looked like. He only vaguely remembered that the child was very quiet, well-behaved and sensible. He didn't cause him trouble like other children. But precisely because he was too quiet and sensible, he almost ignored the existence of this son.
"Master, look, my dear is better now. Not only does he have a good appetite, he can eat and drink now, and now he can even stand up. I just took him for a walk several times, but he said he hasn't walked enough and wants to walk back the distance he hasn't walked in the past twelve years!"
Because he was too happy, Feng Dong didn't notice the unusual atmosphere at all and spoke a series of words.
"It's okay! It's really okay..." Xiao Jian muttered to himself excitedly, not knowing whether he was talking to himself or to others.
"Ayu, you have indeed inherited your mother's medical skills, and even surpassed them. You are very good...very good."
Seeing Xiao Xian like this, he became more determined to let Xiao Jinyu treat Xiao Yun.
Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and said solemnly:
"Ah Yu, tell me what you want! Grandfather won't beat around the bush any more. How can you forgive Grandfather and the Xiao family?"
To ask this question, the head of the Xiao family must have lost face and torn off his disguise and pride. Does this mean he is truly begging for help in a humble manner?
At this time, Xiao Jinyu said, "Let your wife Ru come and talk to me!"
