Chapter 21 Jiuxiao's Family
Xie Baigu was speechless. Seeing his son so out of sorts, he sighed inwardly, "He's so old, why would he invest? He might as well put it in the bank to earn interest and save for his funeral."
Although this may not sound good, it is the truth.
It is not easy to make money from money, not to mention why you should join in the investment fun when you are old.
Xie Rongchuan had a different idea: "Mom, what kind of person is Master Jiu?"
Xie Baigu thought for a moment and said, "He is a brilliant man. In Nanyuan, he was once known as Xie Jiu, the man who no one should mess with."
This is what her grandfather told her.
In fact, she had never met Xie Jiu in person.
Xie Rongchuan spread his hands: "Then there's no problem. Could it be that he's getting confused as he gets older? The Xie family's ginger only gets spicier with age. Besides, it's also possible that his family needs funds, so he asked the Xie family for it."
Xie Baigu was very direct: "He is a cultivator, will he get married?"
Xie Rongchuan looked up at the sky: "I don't know. It doesn't say that people who practice cultivation can't get married."
Xie Baigu was choked.
That’s true.
Since nothing could be found out over the phone, Xie Jiuyue asked her to take the child there again. Xie Baigu felt that it was indeed necessary.
So he said to Xie Rongchuan: "During your summer vacation, you should go to Sikun Mountain, firstly to explore the situation, and secondly, to meet the elders."
Xie Rongchuan was happy to be able to travel alone, and he agreed immediately: "Okay, Mom, send me the address and I'll go buy the ticket right away."
"He will send the detailed address to you later and I will give it to you. He said it is in Sikunshan in southern Yunnan. I will give you the phone number. Call him when you arrive. Remember, you must be polite and have a good attitude." Xie Baigu reminded.
Xie Rongchuan looked at the ceiling, his face livid: "Mom, am I as bad as you say?"
Xie Baigu held his forehead and said, "You don't know your Ninth Master's temper."
When Xie Baigu's grandfather was still alive, he told her that Xie Jiu could do whatever he wanted, and he could get money or things if he wanted them.
Although Xie Jiu was a talented man praised by everyone in Nanyuan, he was also a devil that everyone avoided.
Xie Baigu talked about a lot of Xie Jiuyue’s “great achievements” when he was still in Nanyuan, which made Xie Rongchuan feel that the Ninth Master, whom he had never met, was a powerful figure, and he fell in love with him instantly!
"Okay, okay, I'll remember. I must be humble." Xie Rongchuan was afraid that if her mother continued nagging, it would be inappropriate to change the direction.
Xie Baigu also knew that he shouldn't criticize his elders too much, so he waved his hand and told him to hurry up and buy the tickets. "I'll have someone prepare the gifts. There's a flight to Southern Yunnan tomorrow morning. You can stay for two or three days to gauge the military situation. If you find it interesting, you can stay for a few more days."
Xie Baigu rubbed his brows. Things had been happening one after another recently, and there were not many people left in the Xie family.
Xie Rongchuan was just about to leave when he saw his mother looked exhausted and felt distressed.
He walked over and rubbed her shoulders: "Mom, don't be too tired. If you can let go of some things, just let them go. Leave the Meng family to me."
After careful consideration, Xie Rongchuan told Xie Baigu his decision.
Xie Baigu raised his head and looked at Xie Rongchuan seriously, a little uncertain: "You, can you?"
Xie Rongchuan said firmly, "There's nothing wrong with that. Over the years, our Xie family has done our utmost to help him."
"Okay." Xie Baigu was very emotional.
Children must grow up, and she can only accompany him for a part of the way. Growth always comes at a price, but the price for her own son is too high.
Well, it's time for him to hone his skills. When he comes back from Sikunshan, she will hand over the Xie family to him.
After Jiuxiao hung up the phone, he sent Xie Baigu his address.
He has rarely contacted his family in recent years, firstly because his brothers have passed away; secondly, he is worried that his grandchildren will have some thoughts.
After all, he is the only one left in the Xie family and the oldest one in seniority. If he returns to the Xie family, who should these people listen to?
In order not to embarrass the head of the Xie family, he stopped contacting his family after his brothers left.
However, he would still receive part of the dividends from the Xie family transferred into his account during the holidays.
This time he told Xie Baigu that he wanted to take away all the dividends he had deposited in the Xie family over the past few decades. Given Xie Baigu's cautious nature, she would definitely send someone to check it out.
After all, that is a considerable amount of money.
Sure enough, an hour later, Jiuxiao received a message from Xie Baigu.
The message said that her son Xie Rongchuan would take the earliest flight to Southern Yunnan tomorrow, and asked Jiuxiao to send someone to pick him up.
Gave Xie Rongchuan’s contact information.
Jiuxiao planned to wait for Zengyue to come back before telling her about this matter. She should go to Nandian City, so he asked her to pick up Xie Rongchuan by the way.
By the time Yang Zengyue and Chen Jiaer finished what was happening down the mountain, it was already eight o'clock in the evening.
Uncle Liu hired more than two hundred people. Fortunately, they could use machines to dig, and after a day, they finally dug up most of the medicinal herbs.
All that's left to do tomorrow is the finishing touches.
After Yang Zengyue paid the wages, he asked someone to deliver the medicinal herb merchants the goods. As he watched the trucks carrying the medicinal herbs driving out of the mountain road one after another, Yang Zengyue breathed a sigh of relief.
The medicinal materials have been processed and the money has been received.
After returning home, she immediately transferred the money for the construction materials to Fan Jinggang.
Jiuxiao saw that the two girls who came back were full of energy, as if they had endless energy.
Yang Zengyue took a sip of water and told Jiuxiao about today's harvest: "Master, I have hired people to tend to the rice paddies. Once all the herbs are shipped out tomorrow, we can have machines prepare the land. After we water it, we can start sowing in two days."
The total amount collected for the medicinal materials was also stated, and the accounts were so clear that Chen Jiaer was amazed.
Chen Jiaer looked at Yang Zengyue with admiration: My goodness, a big boss is a big boss, he is good at everything he does.
After the three of them had a simple dinner, Jiuxiao told Zengyue that the Xie family would be in Nandian tomorrow, and asked her to go to Nandian to help pick them up tomorrow.
Yang Zengyue and Chen Jiaer had met several members of the Xie family before, but they heard that they were all from side branches.
After thinking for a while, Yang Zengyue asked: "Master, what is the relationship between the Meng family and the Xie family?"
Jiuxiao thought for a moment. The Meng and Xie families only intersected with each other in this generation. "A child from this generation of the Meng family married into the Xie family."
As for the fact that Xie Baigu had divorced Meng Yunchong, Jiuxiao was not aware of it.
Jiu Xiao knew that his granddaughter wouldn't ask this question for no reason: "Why, is there something wrong with the Meng family?"
Yang Zengyue frowned: "How many children do Meng Yunchong and Xie Baigu have?"
Jiuxiao: "As far as I know, Xie Baigu only has one son."
Both generations of the Xie family have died out.
Unlike the times of him and his brother.
Yang Zengyue and Chen Jiaer looked at each other, both of them with an expression that said, "As expected."
Yang Zengyue told Jiuxiao about Meng Chuyang. She and Chen Jiaer had both met Meng Yunchong, and Meng Chuyang was 100% his son because the father and son looked like they were cast from the same mold.
Meng Chuyang also said that he was a child of the Xie family and his father was Xie Baigu's husband.
