Chapter 88 The Five Great Families



“They are all the cat’s guests,” Jiu Yebai suddenly said.

Song Ci smiled and said, "As expected of our sister, everyone loves her, and she can even please these picky old folks."

Jiu Yebai glanced at him, "Can you stop being so shameless? Who's your 'our sister'? That's my sister!"

Song Ci laughed and said, "I don't care. Once you're my sister, you're my sister for life, unless you make me your brother-in-law."

"You?" Jiu Yebai looked him up and down critically. "Come on, Maomao has someone she likes. You have no chance in this lifetime."

Song Ci immediately asked, "Who is the person she loves? Tell me, and let's see if I can give up."

Jiu Yebai simply snorted, "I won't tell you."

He wouldn't say anything, let Song Ci worry about it!

Besides, he doesn't want to say! Cat likes Mu Jin, and the thought of it makes him a little sad, but luckily, nothing's going to happen yet, and this tender cabbage is still in his own home.

He hoped that Mu Jin would never come to pick it!

"Look at how stingy you are... I'll find out sooner or later." Song Ci brought a plate of pastries and leaned against Jiu Yebai. He said, "As long as you swing the hoe well, there's no wall you can't dig down. Look at me, how young I am, I'll rise to the top one day, right?"

Jiu Yebai replied, "Save your breath. Don't bring your family's bad habits to ours. If you knew whose wall you were undermining, you probably wouldn't say that."

Song Ci said confidently, "There's no wall I wouldn't dare to undermine."

Jiu Yebai gestured with his chin towards the several old ancestors over there and said, "What if it's these?"

Song Ci's hand trembled. "Don't joke around, does our sister like this size?"

Jiu Yebai couldn't help but kick him, "Are you fucking foul-mouthed? I mean, what about their little darlings?"

Song Ci's expression turned slightly serious. After thinking for a moment, he said, "This... is indeed a bit tricky, but I'm not without influence, so just tell me, who has our sister taken a fancy to?"

Jiu Yebai still didn't say anything, but even so, it was enough to make Song Ci nervous!

Song Ci, he really is his number one, most sarcastic friend! He's right, he does have quite a reputation.

The Song family, along with the Mu, Ye, Gu, and Tan families, are five mysterious families that have been passed down for hundreds of years and have such profound foundations that outsiders can't even guess what they've become.

In stark contrast to the low-key Gu family, the Song family is the most high-profile!

Their most ostentatious business is Extraordinary Entertainment, which is currently run by Song Sifan, Song Ci's older brother. Song Ci is a mischievous little devil who hasn't really taken charge yet.

But what's a bit strange is that among these five families, the Song family doesn't seem to be treated as well.

Just like today, Madam Mu, Old Man Ye, and Professor Gu all came, and they even brought their old friend, Old Master Tan! That handsome old man—the former head of the Tan family!

The relationships between the five major families can be gleaned from the relationships among these elders.

If Song Ci hadn't come along with Lan Feng today, there wouldn't be anyone from the Song family here. If he were included, then the Jiu family would have invited all five of these mysterious families today!

On the other side.

The cat kept the old lady Mu company while she introduced him to the old man, Tan.

"Girl, this is Elder Tan. You should have seen him at my birthday banquet last time," said Madam Mu.

Old Master Tan chuckled, "I've come uninvited."

Jiu Yunchi replied, "It was my fault for not inviting you. Your presence is an honor to my humble abode."

Cat looked at Jiu Yunchi, who was neither humble nor arrogant, but also very polite, leaving no room for criticism.

When the cat tried to call him Old Man Tan again, it seemed like it was holding Jiu Yunchi back a bit...

She hesitated for a moment, then skipped the formalities and asked, "Tan Zheng, is he your grandson?"

Old Master Tan smiled and said, "Yes, that boy is indeed my grandson. Girl, are you familiar with him?"

The cat nodded, confirming its suspicions.

The old play with the old, and the young play with the young, so that's why Ah Jin plays with Tan Zheng.

Moreover, just one glance at this old man Tan's long hair reminded me of Tan Zheng! Is this some kind of family heredity? Such long, jet-black, and lustrous hair?

Old Master Tan suddenly burst into laughter, “Haha, good! That kid has a temper like a firecracker, he could scare girls to tears since he was a child, and he’s grown up without a girlfriend, let alone any ordinary female friends! Congratulations, girl, you should spend more time with him.”

"Okay, okay." The cat nodded obediently.

But I apologized in my heart.

Old Man Tan is probably going to be disappointed. She and Tan Zheng... they're not just acquaintances, they're enemies! Of course, it's Tan Zheng who hates her! Last time, she seemed to have beaten someone up pretty badly.

However, of course, the cat wouldn't talk about beating up someone's grandson...

"Don't just stand here! Can't you see those vegetable patches waiting for us all alone? Come on, let's go take a look." Old Man Ye was the most anxious; seeing the lush green fields, his heart had already flown there.

“Old Ye was born in the Year of the Monkey, and he’s still quite active even in his old age,” Professor Gu said. “You all watch, I’ll just sit here for a bit.”

Madam Mu said, "I'd like to have some water too."

Mr. Tan also sat on the sofa, not in a hurry.

Only Old Man Ye couldn't stand it and ignored them, only calling for the cat.

He looked around the vegetable garden. His clean white cloth shoes were covered in mud when he came out. He said in surprise, "Cat, your vegetables are quite special... and this soil is different too."

The cat didn't speak, pretending not to understand. This soil was different; it was the soil from her life space.

"I need to take some of this soil back with me to study it," said Old Man Ye, as his bodyguard had already dug some up and packed it up.

Old Man Ye went to check on the fruit trees again, and when he came back, he was all smiles, overjoyed. "Oh my, they're growing so well! Could it be that the land in the Jiu family's place is a feng shui treasure? Is the rain different from what we get here? How come these fruit trees are all so vigorous?"

I think some of them will bear fruit this fall. Little Cat, the old man has reserved them; he'll come pick them himself then.

Madam Mu laughed and said, "When people get old, their skin becomes thicker. How can you just ask for things without asking? You should at least give the girl some benefits."

Old Man Ye didn't think so. He picked up a bunch of grapes, peeled them, ate them, and then said, "Sister Mu, this is because you don't understand Maomao. Look at her, she's been so reserved all this time. She definitely doesn't like that kind of formality. Am I right, Maomao?"

The cat nodded repeatedly, "Take whatever you like, just don't say anything the cat can't understand."

Old Man Ye swung his leg. "You all heard that, didn't you?"

As he spoke, he looked at the cat with a smile and said, "However, I won't take your things for nothing. You young people like to play things that I can't keep up with. But I have a grandson who only knows how to play. I'll assign him to you so you can do whatever you want with him. If he doesn't listen to me, just tell me and I'll deal with him."

The cat said strangely, "Ye Mingshi..."

"Yes, yes, that's the kid." Old Man Ye nodded. "By the way, he told me today that he was coming too, why hasn't he arrived yet?"
