Chapter 260 Mother and Son

The woman smiled, but said nothing, and led Zhou Cheng out.

Seeing them leaving, Chu Yang was a little puzzled, and asked, "Lin Yang? Why are so many people having trouble with you? You said you, you used to hang out in Haizhou, and when you came to Yanjing for the first time, you actually Just ran into an enemy? It's still from the Zhou family. What's wrong with you?"

Lin Yang said: "This is not something that can be said clearly in a few sentences. I'll go out first and wait for me here."

Seeing that Lin Yang was about to leave, Han Xiyue hurriedly shouted, "Lin Yang, stop for me."

Lin Yang stopped his figure, looked back at Han Xiyue, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Han Xiyue said: "You want to follow those two people just now? Overhear them talking?"

Lin Yang smiled and said, "The one called Zhou Cheng just now, the Xi family he mentioned refers to my wife, Xi Ruting. I'm afraid this kid has bad intentions."

After speaking, Lin Yang stepped out of the room, Han Xiyue wanted to call him, but it was too late.

Seeing Lin Yang leave, Han Xiyue threw the pastry in her hand on the table, and said angrily, "This Lin Yang is really daring, and I don't know how many wives he has. If every wife If there is a little bit of trouble, he won't be exhausted?"

Chu Yang drank his tea and said leisurely, "This guy is really a philanderer! Sezi has a knife on his head. I think he will die of exhaustion on a woman's belly sooner or later."

Han Xiyue bit her lips lightly, and there was a hint of anger in her eyes. Seeing that she was sullen, Chu Yang didn't dare to speak any more, and just buried his head in drinking tea.

After going out the door, Lin Yang fell far behind Zhou Cheng and the woman, and walked along the corridor to the depths of the house.

Mr. Zhou's 66th birthday, many people came to celebrate his birthday, most of them were arranged in the wing rooms and main rooms of the second courtyard, and there were very few people in the third courtyard. Except for a few servants, Lin Yang had no meet other people.

Following Zhou Cheng's mother and son, Lin Yang went directly to the fourth courtyard.

The woman in a long black dress pushed open a door, looked at it with her head, and then went in. Zhou Cheng hesitated for a moment, and then followed.

Lin Yang quickened his pace and arrived in front of that room.Crouching down, Lin Yang pretended to tie his shoelaces, but pricked up his ears to eavesdrop on their conversation.

After listening attentively, the woman said: "You are really courageous. Tell me, did you eat the courage of ambition? On your fourth uncle's birthday, drive away the guests who came to celebrate his birthday? If your fourth uncle finds out, he won't spare you."

Zhou Cheng said with a flattering smile: "Mom? Do you know who was blocked by me? That's Xi Ruting. She wants to meet the old man through birthday celebrations. Can I make her wish come true? In short, I just want to let Yongfu Jewelry can't gain a firm foothold in Yanjing, let them go back to Haizhou."

Lin Yang was secretly surprised, and thought: Xi Ruting also came to celebrate Mr. Zhou's birthday?She didn't disclose any information to me beforehand.

Just when he was wondering, the woman's voice came out again: "Nonsense, I'm your mother, may I know who that person is? I called you here to tell you that the matter is almost over, and it's time to stop If you keep messing around, your fourth uncle will punish you."

Zhou Cheng didn't take it seriously, and said: "Mom, you don't understand. I stopped her from the door because I didn't want her to see the old man. You know, my fourth uncle's original intention was not to be as knowledgeable as those gangsters from Xi's family in Haizhou. Suppressing Yongfu Jewelry, this is what Zhou Zhengge and I did behind the old man's back. If she sends a congratulatory gift and mentions this matter to the old man, can my fourth uncle forgive me? Last time in Haizhou, I shamed our family, He already has a problem with me. You can't let him know about this. "

The woman was furious, and scolded angrily: "Stupid! How can your fourth uncle not know about what you did? He didn't ask, but he acquiesced in your doing so. Anyway, you are also from the Zhou family, from the Xi family in Haizhou What is it? A nouveau riche. A small family like theirs dares to taunt you. Is this a slap in the face? This is a slap in the face of the entire Zhou family. Your fourth uncle acquiesced in doing this because he wanted to teach the Xi family a lesson Now that Xi Ruting took the initiative to come here to celebrate her birthday, she has given in. But you have to know that there is a limit to everything. The profit of the jewelry business is a drop in the bucket for my Zhou family. Contacting people from the Industry and Commerce Bureau to secretly suppress Yongfu Jewelry is already a taboo. If you don’t know how to restrain yourself, you will definitely get into trouble.”

Zhou Cheng was uneasy, and asked: "The old man already knows about me and brother Zhou Zhengtang?"

The woman scolded, "Look, you have been in the Zhou family for many years, and you have learned nothing except some bad habits. Early this morning, the leaders of the Municipal Land Bureau and the Industry and Commerce Bureau came. As soon as they walked in, Zhou Dahai took them I saw your fourth uncle, and your fourth uncle pointed at their noses and scolded them for half an hour, and even threw tea leaves on their faces."

Zhou Cheng groaned secretly in his heart, and said in fear: "Mom, what should I do now? I don't know if Xi Ruting has left, or should I send someone to call her back and let her come to celebrate her birthday?"

The woman said: "I have asked someone to let her in. Let me ask you, this time, to suppress the Xi family's Yongfu Jewelry, have you sent money to the people from the Land Bureau and the Industry and Commerce Bureau?"

Zhou Cheng said weakly: "No, brother Zhou Zhengtang and I just invited them to drink tea, eat and chat, and we didn't send money or bribes."

The woman breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "This is the best. Our Zhou family has a big business, and it can be regarded as a big family. Things will go against each other, and prosperity will decline. There are many things that you can't do if you want to. If you are too indulgent, the Zhou family will Destroyed. Openly bribing public officials, this kind of thing is absolutely not allowed. After today, you take the initiative to admit your mistake to your fourth uncle."

"Admit your mistake?" Zhou Cheng was a little stunned, and asked, "Mom? What did I do wrong?"

The woman lazily said: "Business is business, and officialdom is officialdom. You and your cousin privately met with people from the Bureau of Land and Industry and the Bureau of Industry and Commerce, and asked them to do things for you and help suppress Yongfu Jewelry. This is the biggest mistake you did. , It will damage the prestige of the Zhou family. Your fourth uncle will definitely punish you. You will not be able to escape this physical pain, and your mother will not be able to help you. Okay, what should you do? I still have to meet with you A guest."

Hearing Zhou Cheng's footsteps, Lin Yang got up quickly, ready to leave.But just two steps away, the woman's voice came out.

"I've been listening to the wall for so long, and now I want to leave, don't you think it's a bit late? Since you're here, come in and have a cup of tea, let's have a good chat!"
