Chapter 128 All villains
Upon hearing this, Du Desheng subconsciously straightened his back and pricked up his ears, wanting to hear who the big shot Duanrao was talking about, and whether he was the same person he had guessed?
However, Duanrao did not continue the topic, but turned his attention back to him and Qiao Yiting.
[Since ancient times, money has always been a powerful thing. Even the only daughter of a wealthy family like my cousin could be targeted by others to make her family extinct, not to mention my uncle, who has a large family and wealth but no children or heirs. He is simply like an old hen guarding a mountain of gold.]
The old hen: “…”
Everyone in the Du family: Hahahahahahaha... We usually don’t laugh unless we can’t help it!
Du Anrao did not notice the strangeness of the few people. After thinking about it, he frowned and shook his head.
[No, it should be said that it is an old hen that lays golden eggs while guarding a golden mountain! ]
Someone who is not only an old hen but also lays golden eggs: "..." You just can't get around this hurdle, right?
Compared to the two adults who were also trying very hard but at least managed to hold back their laughter, Du Yuxi's self-control was slightly worse. Relying on her mother standing in the middle, she took out her cell phone and sent a message to the group of onlookers.
[Du family special group for eating melons]
Wei Yu Ruoxi: What should I do? I can't bear it anymore!
The boss is very reliable: Hold on, even an old hen is not broken, why are you so excited? Don't let An An see that something is wrong.
Wei Yu Ruoxi: ...Brother, could you please stop mentioning the old hen? I really can’t hold it any longer.
What old hen? Is there any chicken soup at home?
Scattered like sand: Why don't you say you're stupid? Isn't that obvious? They can see with our own eyes that they're eating melons behind our backs again. With your IQ, I don't know how you became a big star? Can you set a good example for the young people nowadays?
Idiot: Third brother! If you can't speak, just shut up. No one thinks you are dumb!
I was so stupid: Damn, no, you guys...why did you choose the time when I was on a business trip again? I hate it!
With the jokes from her brothers, Du Yuxi calmed down for a while and tried to cover up her raised smile by fanning herself with her hands.
Fortunately, Duanrao's attention was on Du Desheng and the nurse at the moment, and he didn't notice her little movements.
[Speaking of which, my great-uncle is also pitiful. Because of his huge family fortune and wide network of contacts, even at his age, he doesn't even have anyone around him he can trust. Everyone has ulterior motives, and each one is very shrewd, but also very evil.]
Looking at the whole book, from the housekeeper to the good friend, from the relative to the subordinate, from the acquaintance to the colleague, almost all of them can be called villains.
Even the heroine, who can be said to have a conscience, helped her scumbag boyfriend and housekeeper Du to deceive Mr. Du Jiu several times in the early stage of the plot in order to save medical expenses for her seriously ill old mother, and secretly helped them do a lot of evil things by accident.
Even if she didn't mean it, even if she finally came to her senses and took the initiative to tell Master Du Jiu the truth, and stood firmly by his side when everyone was desperately trying to hunt him down and take away everything he had, and finally set fire to everyone and the century-old house to accompany Master Du Jiu, it still couldn't erase the mistakes she made in the early days.
Fame, power, money, reputation... they drive people into ghosts. They seem to be gaining, but they are always losing.
Duanrao did not have any ill feelings towards Miss Qiao. He even admired her decisiveness and courage in dragging everyone together to die at the last moment, except for one thing.
[Everyone knows that Master Du Jiu has been looking for his lover for half a century, but few people know that Miss Qin has also been waiting for her lover for half a century.]
What?! Everyone in the Du family opened their eyes wide in surprise.
Du Desheng was shocked all over and almost couldn't help jumping up. The reason why he couldn't jump up was simply because his whole body was shaking, and even his legs were numb, so he couldn't move at all.
But even so, his brain was clearer than ever, and he stared at Du Anrao as if he wanted to burn through her.
No matter how slow Duan was, he realized that something was wrong.
[What's going on? My uncle looks at me like he wants to eat me? How did I offend him just now? No, right?]
Duanrao's muttering was like a bucket of cold water, poured heavily on Du Desheng's head, making him sober up a lot.
He repeatedly told himself to calm down, that his lover still missed him and was waiting for him, and that was the best outcome.
He was just one step away from finding the lover he had longed for all his life, he couldn't fail at this last moment, absolutely not!
Thinking of this, Du Desheng gritted his teeth and slapped his thigh fiercely: "Look at my memory, how could I forget the box of Wuyi Snow Collar Dahongpao in my car? Yiting, go get it and let everyone taste it."
Qiao Yiting was startled when she heard this: "Master Jiu, you are not talking about that tea..."
"It's okay, go get it."
Seeing that Du Desheng insisted, Qiao Yiting didn't say anything more and turned away.
Du Anrao glanced at Qiao Yiting's receding back, hid behind Du's mother, and asked Du Yuxi in a low voice, "Is this Xueling Dahongpao very rare?"
"It is said to be a rare treasure among the new Da Hong Pao products, and it is priceless in the market."
"Compared to the two cans that the Zhang family gave us before..."
"Naturally, his is more rare and should be more expensive."
After this comparison, Duanrao had an idea.
[No wonder my uncle looked so serious just now. He probably knew that my dad liked this tea beforehand, and he used his status as an elder to play the emotional card but failed, so he tried to bribe him. After all, a man who has eaten someone's food will be soft-hearted, and a man who has received someone's money will be grateful. He will probably let my dad drink a sip and then give him the rest, so that my dad will not be able to refuse my uncle's request to stay overnight. It hurts to think about giving such good tea to someone. Hahahaha, it can be seen that my uncle really wants to live in our house. ]
Father Du's mouth twitched, and he thought to himself, little ancestor, who do you think your uncle went to so much trouble to stay here for?
But on second thought, Du Desheng took out this jar of top-quality tea most likely just to divert Du Anrao's attention, and he might not really want to give it to him.
Now that Duan Rao had said this, he had to send it even if he didn't want to.
Originally, because of the matter of Miss Qin, they had to let Du Desheng stay overnight. Otherwise, it would not be just a temporary avoidance of the limelight, but they would really become enemies with him.
Now that he has agreed, he can also extort a jar of premium tea from him. In the end, he is the one who makes the profit.
Thinking of this, Father Du felt better again!
"Uncle, you came as soon as you came, and you brought these things with you. You are very polite."
"It's okay. They are just external possessions. You can't bring them with you when you are born and you can't take them with you when you die. It's just right to give them to the right person. By the way..." Du Desheng suddenly changed the subject and introduced the middle-aged man he brought to the Du family.
"This is Du Qichang, who is also one of our relatives. He is Bi Xiao's boss. He came with me this time because he has some important matters that he wants to consult with An An."
