Before entering the Shen family's old house, Shen Qi stood behind a dozen of the Shen family's bodyguards, and no one noticed him. But after entering the Shen family's old house, Shen Qi stood out because he was the only one wearing a green robe.
Shen Hong was so focused on entertaining Wang Huiwen and the others that he didn't notice Shen Qi for a moment.
Shen Qiu did see it, but he didn't know Shen Qi and thought he was brought by a family in the capital, so he didn't take it seriously.
The family heads from the capital also saw it, but did not say anything. After all, this is the Shen family, not the capital. Even if they don’t give face to the Shen family, they have to give face to Wang Huiwen, right?
The only exception was Zhao Gu.
Zhao Gu saw Shen Qi in a blue shirt from afar and couldn't help shouting.
"Hey! Kids, did you see that? There are still people wearing long gowns now? That's really funny!"
Shen Hong heard the voice and looked over. He found that Shen Qi was actually outside and had been named by Zhao Gu. He was so scared that his body trembled.
This is the ancestor of the Shen family. You can offend anyone, but please don’t offend our ancestor.
If the ancestor takes out a jade pendant, the Cheng family will be finished. If you, Zhao Gu, anger the ancestor, your Zhao family will be finished too!
Shen Hong didn't bother to explain to Zhao Gui, and hurriedly trotted to Shen Qi, "Old...Second Uncle, this, this is the head of the Zhao family, please don't take it to heart."
Zhao Gu originally thought that Shen Qi was just a servant of the Shen family, but he didn't expect Shen Hong to run up to explain so anxiously. Now he realized that he had done something stupid.
I finally got in touch with the Shen family and tried to curry favor with the Wang family in Beijing, but as soon as I walked in, I scolded Shen Hong's second uncle. What the hell is going on?
Is it too late to admit your mistake now?
Shen Qi had just seen Zhao Gu's actions outside. He knew that Zhao Gu looked like a rough man, but he would not let down his guard at critical moments. He spoke arrogantly just now because he suddenly relaxed. He didn't care much about these things. After all, everyone who came here today was to help the Shen family, so he had to give them some face.
"It's okay, Patriarch Zhao is straightforward and outspoken, don't worry about it."
Shen Hong finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the ancestor was not angry, everything would be fine.
Zhao Gu was also very nervous just now, afraid that Shen Qi would be angry. When he heard that Shen Qi did not seem angry, he hurriedly walked up, touched his bald head and said with a smile: "Second Uncle, I, Zhao, am a rough man. Please don't be so mean to me. Let's drink later. I'll toast you a few more glasses."
Shen Qi chuckled, "Very good. Shen Hong, go and get busy, and don't neglect the other family heads."
Zhao Gu chuckled and pushed Shen Hong away without waiting for him to speak.
"Master Shen, don't worry. I'm here with Second Uncle. I promise everything will be fine! Hey, Second Uncle, you look so young. How do you maintain your youth?"
Shen Qi took out his ID card and glanced at it quietly, then said, "I'm twenty-four years old this year, I'm just older than you."
Zhao Gu: I was careless. I think I hit the horse’s leg again. What should I do?
Shen Hong didn't expect that so many people would come today, and the Shen family was almost in danger of bankruptcy two days ago. Many servants and bodyguards in the old house had left, and there were not many left now, so he could only let Wang Huiwen and others rest in the lobby first, and hurriedly sent someone to book a hotel.
These family heads from the capital are all important figures. Even if their ancestors are in charge, they must be treated well. After all, we cannot lose touch with human relationships.
Shen Qi didn't like that kind of lively social gatherings, so he didn't go to the hall. Instead, he sat down at a stone table in the yard. Zhao Gu also sat down and chatted with Shen Qi with a smile.
It’s not that Zhao Gu is so smart that he can see Shen Qi’s identity, but he also doesn’t like the scene of socializing with so many family heads, so it’s better for him to find an excuse to stay outside.
His main purpose of coming here this time was to please the Wang family in the capital by showing goodwill to the Shen family. Now that his goal has been achieved, he doesn't ask for anything else. He just chats with Shen Qi, who is older than him and younger than him, to pass the time.
Just at this moment, Chen Qiu brought a pot of tea.
This pot of tea was brewed with the top-quality Pu'er tea given by Wang Huiwen, and a special fragrance wafted out.
"Second Grandfather, this is something my father asked me to bring to you."
Shen Qiu respectfully placed the tea in front of Shen Qi, but he was very puzzled. He didn't understand why his father was so respectful to this distant uncle who suddenly appeared.
Moreover, he had never heard of such a distant uncle before.
But this trip to the capital has made him realize that his father has great power and everything is under his father's control. So he will doubt his father's arrangements, but he will never be negligent, but will try his best to do his best.
Shen Qi nodded slightly, "Chen Qiu, please sit down too. Pour some tea for Patriarch Zhao first."
"I'll do it, I'll do it!"
Zhao Gu hurriedly stood up, picked up the teapot and poured a cup for Shen Qi. A rich aroma wafted out. Even though Zhao Gu didn't like drinking tea very much, he could tell that this tea was extraordinary.
"Uncle, your tea is quite interesting."
Chen Qiu didn't know Shen Qi's background, and the Shen family had just received a huge sum of 20.4 billion, so it was inevitable that they were a little flattered. He immediately said, "Of course, this is the top-grade Pu'er tea that Patriarch Wang gave to my father."
Zhao Gu was stunned for a moment. "Master Wang's top-grade Pu'er tea? You didn't lie to me, did you?"
Zhao Gu then looked around to make sure the Wang family was not nearby. He lowered his voice and said, "You don't know how stingy old man Wang Huiwen is. Last time he asked me for something, I said I wanted to get some tea from him, but he was reluctant to give me his top-grade Pu'er."
Chen Qiu was also confused. He didn't know how to respond to Zhao Gui's words, or whether he could respond at all.
If Wang Huiwen knew that you were talking bad about him behind his back, it would be a disaster.
Shen Qi chuckled, "Master Zhao, you don't like tea, so this tea would be wasted if it fell into your hands. I might as well give you a bottle of Lao Baigan."
"Hehe! Second uncle is right!"
Zhao Gu rubbed his bald head and said, "Chen Qiu, did you hear what your second grandfather said? Hurry up and bring some wine! Oh, and bring a plate of peanuts, this is a real dish!"
Chen Qiu was helpless, but he also knew Zhao Gu's identity, so he obediently asked the servant to get the wine.
Soon, the wine was brought, but there were no peanuts, because the Shen family did not have such "hard dishes", which made Zhao Gu a little disappointed.
Shen Qi took a sip of tea with a smile and nodded slightly. The tea was acceptable this time.
But drinking tea alone is boring, so Shen Qi put his right hand under the stone table, flipped it lightly, and a plate of peanuts fell into his hand, which he then placed on the stone table.
"Master Zhao, try this."
Zhao Gu's eyes lit up, "Great! I, Old Zhao, like this!"
After saying that, he picked up the wine bottle with his left hand and took a sip, then picked up a peanut with his right hand and put it into his mouth, showing a satisfied look.
"This taste, hiss! This taste, Uncle, your peanuts are different!"
