Kicked Out of the Rich Family at the Beginning Chapter 357

Chapter 357 Chapter 358 Extra 3: Meeting, grandpa's appearance

 It is still the first month of the year, so there are many people in the old streets.

 The teahouse is at the end of the road, in a small courtyard alone.

Uncle Meng has heard of this teahouse. The people behind it have a good background. They only receive a limited number of guests every day and the atmosphere is quiet.

Uncle Meng came here for the first time. As soon as he opened the door and entered, he saw a square lacquered wooden table in the lobby and a few old men standing in the yard talking in low voices.

The door to the courtyard was closed again, cutting off the hustle and bustle outside.

 Follow the carved wooden stairs next to it to go to the private room upstairs.

Ji Heng called out the Yajian number, and someone took him to the back. The Yajian was in the innermost room on the second floor. There were two men in black plainclothes standing outside the private room. They had sharp eyebrows and looked quite impressive.

　　　He is not a guard from Jiangjing, Ji Heng doesn't know him.

 He stopped and was about to identify himself to the two guards.

 The man on the left opened the bamboo curtain and let Ji Heng in.

Uncle Meng was a little surprised when he saw the two people standing outside the private room. He could also tell that these two people seemed to be bodyguards.

He stayed outside, but the moment the door curtain was opened, he seemed to see two people sitting on the square wooden table.

 In a private room.

The environment is somewhat closed.

Bai Zian was sitting leisurely by the window, watching the water flowing on the small bridge downstairs. A small boat slowly passed through the arch bridge hole. Red lanterns were hung on both sides of the bank, bluestone road, white walls and blue tiles.

Ink painting paintings, everything is low-key and quiet.

 She looked away, crossed her arms and looked at Ji Heng's mental state. She could see that he was quite relaxed recently.

 It seems that the Ji family is more affectionate to him.

Jiang Fuli picked up the teapot and poured tea for Ji Heng across from him. The aroma of tea overflowed.

Ji Hengyao's gift box is placed next to it.

Ji Heng picked up the teacup, lowered his head and took a sip slowly, then spoke to the two of them, "Just ask someone to bring it to me."

Jiang Fuli slowly put down the teapot and lazily said, "It's not that busy. We are on vacation these two days."

Uncle Meng was still waiting outside, and Ji Heng didn't stay long. After drinking a pot of tea, he went out with a bunch of gift boxes.

Jiang Fuli bent down, opened the curtain and sent him out.

　　Farewell to Ji Heng in a low voice.

With cold eyebrows and drooped eyes, when he spoke lazily, he had a very dignified tone and a noble aura.

Uncle Meng lowered his eyes subconsciously, secretly surprised. Ji Heng said she was his granddaughter, so who is this person with obvious extraordinary aura?

After leaving the teahouse, Uncle Meng walked out of the small courtyard and walked into the lively streets.

“Master Gu,” Uncle Meng looked at the box Ji Heng was holding, “I'll help you carry it.”

 The back door of the tea house.

An executive car slowly stopped at the door. The middle-aged man hurriedly got out and walked quickly inside, "It's true, Pei Jin, you didn't tell me about such a big thing earlier!"

 He arranged his suit and walked inside.

When he reached the second floor and saw two guards at the door, he took a deep breath and arranged his clothes.

The two guards obviously knew the middle-aged man. They nodded slightly and said hello, "Mr. Pei."

Father Pei nodded politely to the two of them, then raised his hand to lift the door curtain and went in.

"Hello, Miss Bai." He is Pei Qu's father and the boss behind the teahouse. Pei Qu just called him leisurely to tell him that Bai Qian was at the teahouse. "I am Pei Yuanfu, Pei Qu's father."

"Hello." Bai Zian stood up and shook hands with Pei's father.

Beside him, Jiang Fuli was on the phone with Butler Jiang and nodded slightly to Father Pei as a greeting.

Father Pei's heart tightened and he did not dare to look any further.

He only thanked Bai Zian in a low voice. Not to mention that after college, Bai Zian had taken good care of Pei Jin and the other people in the four cities. During the training camp for the senior year of high school, Pei's father had heard Pei Fan talk about Bai Zian, a seed player.

Not to mention now, Bai Zian is also one of the initiators of the largest scientific research project in Xicheng in the past ten years.

Pei Yuanfu remembered Pei Jin's advice and did not dare to talk to Bai Zian and the other two.

He only whispered a few words and turned to leave.

 Jiang Fuli shook the tea cup and asked politely, "Isn't there Lao Ban Zhang tea?"

Pei Yuanfu, who opened the teahouse, is a tea ceremony enthusiast and naturally has a lot of knowledge about tea.

Hearing Jiang Fuli talk about this, he quickly said: "I'll have someone send it over right away."

This teahouse used to have Lao Banzhang tea with a slightly younger vintage, but in the past two years Lao Banzhang tea has become extremely popular and the price is extremely high. Pei Yuanfu's tea house can no longer afford Lao Banzhang tea.

Pei Yuanfu also asked someone to buy two small cans and kept them at home, but he was not willing to drink them.

 After going out, he immediately called and had someone rush to deliver it.

 In a private room.

Jiang Fuli pushed the window open a crack and talked to Bai Zian, "Butler Jiang will come over in a moment and let you see the style."

Bai Qian made another pot of tea, "What kind of tea?"

 Jiang Fuli did not return.

Bai Qian raised his eyebrows.

Not long after, Butler Jiang came over with a brocade box, opened it, and let Bai Zian look at the embroidery inside, "Miss Bai, look, do you like this kind of embroidery?"

Bai Zian stood up and lowered his head to look at the embroidery.

Hundred butterflies pierce the flowers, and the stitches are fine.

Bai Zian can tell something about Ji Heng's embroidery work if he looks at it a lot. This work is acceptable, but it is not as good as Ji Heng's craftsmanship. Ji Heng is still an amateur.

 “Not bad.” She nodded.

 But Butler Jiang could see that her evaluation was not very high.

especially…

Butler Jiang looked at the lifelike poppies on Bai Xian's collar. He didn't know much about embroidery, but with just a simple look, he could tell that even those poppies that were not gorgeous were more beautiful than this one. Butterflies piercing flowers have artistic conception.

Ji family.

  Ji Lang received the news.

He hung up the phone and stood up to talk to his parents, "The person in charge doesn't like this work, so I'd better go find the grandma."

Originally, Ji Lang wanted people from their third room to make this embroidery, and didn't want people like the eldest lady to interfere.

 It's just that no one else looked at the embroidery on the third room, so Ji Lang had no choice but to go find the eldest grandma.

“Embroidery? Alang, you mean...”

Ji Lang nodded, "Grandma, this opportunity is not to be missed."

The eldest grandma naturally understood the importance of this matter. She asked someone to get a copy of her award-winning work from the past two years. "Since it is a Yunjin Phoenix Robe, the girl must wear it as a wedding dress. She won't be very old."

When Ji Heng came back, Grandma and Ji Lang were looking at her award-winning embroidery.

　　It is an embroidery of red plum blossoms reflecting snow, and the contrast of red and white creates a painting.

Ji Heng glanced at it and nodded secretly.

 Grandma saw Ji Heng, let go of her hand, and said hello to Ji Heng.

Uncle Meng put down part of the gift box and said, "Grandma, this is a New Year's gift that I brought to you and my second and third masters."

 The gift box is very delicately decorated.

Ji Lang glanced at the gift box casually, didn't take it too seriously, and hurriedly left with the grandma's work.

Grandma sat down again and heard that Ji Heng was going to see his granddaughter, "Why didn't you bring her back with you?"

 “She has been a little busy recently.” Ji Heng just declined.

You may even bring guards with you when you come back. Of course, he is also afraid that the Ji family's situation will affect Bai Zian's development. He doesn't even go to the Mu family very often, so he has a better relationship with the Xu family.

 She has a special status after all, and Ji Heng doesn't want to embarrass her too much.

Grandma looked at Ji Heng strangely. She is still so busy during the winter vacation?

However, Ji Heng never said much. She pondered for a moment before asking Ji Heng what happened in the past few decades, "If you don't come back, we won't be able to find out any news about you. You..."

 “Sorry.” Ji Heng was very sorry, but did not explain much.

Ji Heng is well aware of his special status.

Ji Mulan has already left the Ji family, but he still gets into trouble frequently. During that time, he only stayed in Xiangcheng incognito.

  I don't want this to affect the Ji family.

 Now because of what happened to Bai Zian and the others, a lot of people have been purged in the country, so Ji Heng chose to come back this year.

Wait for Ji Heng to leave.

Grandma asked people to deliver Ji Heng's gifts to the second and third bedrooms respectively, and then asked Uncle Meng about Ji Heng.

"This...Miss Xian doesn't seem to be very simple, but..." Uncle Meng hesitated for a moment and told Xiao Qi's story.

 “Have you not finished junior high school?” The eldest grandma was a little shocked and sat down on the chair in a daze.

 She remembered when Ji Wanxin was admitted to Jiangjing University.

 A man went to Jiangjing to study alone.

With such talent, she is the most famous talented woman in Xicheng, and many people flock to her.

 It's really hard to see her descendants like this.

Grandma sat for a while longer, raised her hand, and sighed: "Let me find the International Junior High School. Also, let Alang pay more attention. I need to find a time to talk to my uncle. We can't delay the child."

Ji Lang's fiancée's family is in the education industry, so it was right to find them after all.

 The residence of the second master of the Ji family.

 After he came back with Ji Yun, the Second Mistress showed him the gift she had given him.

“Isn't that right? Don't you like to smoke?” She showed the second master of the Ji family a box of rolled tobacco placed next to him in an exquisite wooden box, as well as two cans of tea and an embroidery.

The second master of the Ji family didn't want to see the gift from Ji Heng.

When Ziah saw the embroidery, he was stunned for a moment, and then he touched the orchids on it with slightly trembling fingers.

 It can be seen that the embroidery is new.

but…

The second master of the Ji family can tell from the stitching and aura of this philosophical product that it is Ji Wanxin's style.

 But Ji Wanxin has been dead for so many years, so it shouldn't be her who embroidered it, it could only be Ji Heng.

 Being able to learn and pass on Ji Wanxin's embroidery skills, the second master of the Ji family knew that it took Ji Heng some time.

“If you don't want it, I'll take it back and give it to me as a watch...” Second Mistress looked sideways at Second Master and said slowly.

 “Take it to my study.” The second master of the Ji family turned around.

Second Grandma looked at his back, "What about tea and tobacco? I don't think you like it very much..."

 “Take them all.”

After they left, the second mistress looked at Ji Yun and said, "Your grandfather, he is so arrogant."

 Three bedrooms.

 The third master of the Ji family has always been very ambitious, and he paved the way starting with Ji Lang's fiancée.

The An family is from a scholarly family in Xicheng. Mr. An is from the Xicheng Education Bureau. An's father and mother are both professors at Xicheng University. The family is an old scholar, and they have connections in the entire Xicheng education circle.

Ji Lang is the backbone of Sanfang.

He sent Grandma's embroidery work over there overnight, and it was already ten o'clock in the evening when he came back.

Uncle Meng respectfully took the gifts Ji Heng brought them and mentioned the school to Sanfang.

There is no embroidery here in Sanfang, only specialties from Xiangcheng, as well as beautifully packaged tea and tobacco.

Tea and tobacco are carefully packaged by Xiaoqi and are very beautiful.

After Uncle Meng left, the third master of the Ji family casually threw the tea and tobacco aside and ignored them.

"Grandpa," Ji Lang frowned, "the school they said..."

  “Don't worry about it.”

Ji Heng has been following Uncle Meng these past few days to review the places Ji Wanxin used to like.

 But it's been decades.

 Some places have been renovated and some have been rebuilt.

On the municipal government side there are old houses and old buildings, but most of them are not open to the public.

“Miss Wanxin wrote her speech here before,” Uncle Meng took Ji Heng to watch from across the street. “Sir, there are people standing guard here, we can't get too close.”

Ji Heng nodded, "Okay."

 In the distance, you can see the Civic Center Building, with security guarding the gate.

 You need a certificate to enter.

Ji Heng picked up his cell phone and wanted to take a photo, print it out, and bring it back to Xiangcheng to show Ji Wanxin.

 He did this when looking at the scenery in front of him.

Uncle Meng was startled and said, "Sir, you can't take pictures here."

 “Sorry.” Ji Heng put away his phone.

As the two of them were talking, they saw three young boys coming out of the Civic Center from a distance. There was a man wearing an executive jacket walking them out next to them.

“Master Gu, let's move aside.” Uncle Meng led Ji Heng back.

Ji Heng was still looking at the sycamore tree next to the building.

In the front, three young boys were about to get on the bus. The boy in the middle suddenly walked aside without knowing what he saw.

Middle-aged men wearing executive jackets also came out.

Seeing this, Uncle Meng hurriedly whispered, "Sir, let's go that way and come back later to take a look."

Ji Heng looked away in a daze, nodded, and left with Uncle Meng.

 Pick up the cigarette stick and light it.

Behind him, Ning Xiao saw Ji Heng about to leave and quickly stopped him, "Grandpa!"

He, Tang Ming, and others have been following Bai Qian's call.

Ji Heng pulled away his emotions and turned around. When he saw it was Ning Xiao, he stopped and said, "Xiao Ning."

Ning Xiao came here today to exchange projects. He took a few steps closer and said, "Grandpa, why are you here?"

“Let's take a look at the municipal building.” Ji Heng still held his mobile phone in his hand.

Ning Xiao never talks much. He only introduces to Pei Qu and Pei Kuang briefly and comprehensively: "Sister Xian, grandpa."

Hearing that it was Bai Qian's grandfather, Pei Jin and Wang Xu quickly cheered up.

Pei Fan bent down to Ji Heng and introduced himself politely: "Hello, grandpa, I am Pei Fan. I was in the same group as Sister Xian."

Wang Xu bent down at a 90-degree angle and said, "Hello, grandpa, welcome to Xicheng! My name is Wang Xu, you can just call me Xiao Wang. Grandpa, are you here to see the municipal building? I will take you in to visit."

Bai Qian's grandfather is Ning Xiao Xiaoning, and calls him Xiao Wang.

  Rounding things off, he is as good as Ning Xiao.

I attended an event and came back after eleven o'clock. It was too late to type... It was already after three o'clock... It's not appropriate to say good night, so good morning to everyone~
