Chapter 585 Do you have the capital to talk to us?
He Jingyi stopped Wei Xiuru. It was meaningless to argue about these things now.
The first priority was to solve the problem of He Dongqi.
He looked up at He Tingyue. His son was growing stronger day by day, but he was getting older.
He Jingyi asked himself, he really didn't like He Tingyue.
It was ridiculous that he felt threatened by his own son.
This threat disappeared the moment He Tingyue retired from the army.
The old man felt sorry for his grandson's future, but he was different. He only felt fortunate.
In fact, he and He Tingyue were born incompatible.
"Dongqi is your younger brother. He is the only one in our family who is still in the army. Can you bear to see your grandfather's hope shattered?"
He Tingyue said with sarcasm, "He Dongqi is not worthy of being your grandfather's hope."
He Jingyi choked, "If you brothers support each other, plus your grandfather and I, he will naturally be able to go more smoothly."
Jiang Yu immediately retorted: "You two, I reiterate that we don't be brothers with illegitimate children."
Every "illegitimate child" was like a slap in Wei Xiuru's face.
He Dongqi became an illegitimate child because of her as a mother.
Wei Xiuru's face flushed, and she looked at He Jingyi aggrievedly.
He Jingyi's face was equally ugly. After all, this illegitimate child could not be produced without his cooperation.
"You guys make the conditions. What do you want in order to let Dongqi go?"
Jiang Yu looked at him with disdain. "We can make the conditions, but do you have the capital to negotiate with us? You have no power, you have no money, and you are old and ugly. How dare you, a person who relies on your father to make a living, say such big words?"
She didn't insist that He Dongqi go to labor reform. It would be enough for him to get the lesson he deserved.
But He Jingyi didn't have any bargaining chips to negotiate with her.
Jiang Yu clicked his tongue and shook his head. The contemptuous look hurt He Jingyi.
After living for so many years, this was the first time someone had written clearly on his face: I look down on you.
"You! You are really too much! I am your elder after all, how dare you talk to me like this!"
Jiang Yu's eyes sank, "Why shouldn't I dare? I don't eat your rice! For what your son did, you two should kneel down and kowtow to me, but it depends on whether I accept it or not."
He Jingyi was so angry that he pointed at He Tingyue and ordered loudly: "I'll say it for the last time, I'm talking to you as a father now, let your brother go!"
He Tingyue was silent for a moment, really not knowing what to say.
"Oh."
Not long after, a man walked in from outside.
He Tingyue knew this man, he was a guard who had followed the old man for many years.
"Tingyue."
He ignored He Jingyi and his wife and walked in front of He Tingyue.
"Uncle Shi."
He Jingyi said unhappily, "Old Shi, why are you here?"
Old Shi didn't turn around and ignored him.
"Tingyue, the old man invites you to have dinner at home."
He Tingyue didn't agree immediately, but looked at Jiang Yu for his opinion.
Jiang Yu thought for a moment, "Is it for He Dongqi?"
Old Shi nodded slightly, "The old man is old and can't stand stimulation. There is still room for discussion on this matter."
After learning why Old Shi came, He Jingyi and Wei Xiuru secretly straightened their backs.
The anxiety on their faces turned into pride.
With the old man's action, He Dongqi's matter was basically settled.
Wei Xiuru was overjoyed, "I knew that Dad still loved Dongqi."
No matter how partial he was, he was still his own grandson.
Jiang Yu tilted her head, "How are you going to talk to me, old man?"
Lao Shi's face froze. As expected, the old man guessed it right.
He fumbled in his pocket and took out a box.
"The old man asked me to give it to you."
Jiang Yu took it and opened it.
Inside was a gold lock, about the size of a child's palm, solid.
She picked it up and weighed it. It was no lighter than a small yellow croaker.
Jiang Yu accepted the thing with peace of mind and said with a smile: "Grandpa invited us, how can we not go? Tingyue escaped death once, it's time for him to go home and see grandpa."
Lao Shi: "..."
He couldn't catch up with the speed of changing his expression.
Wei Xiuru looked at the gold lock in Jiang Yu's hand with hatred, and her heart was filled with unwillingness.
She knew that the He family must have a lot of wealth.
During the Anti-Japanese War, the old man saved a wealthy businessman and became sworn brothers with him. The businessman gave him half of his property
as gifts. The old man used half of these things as military expenses.
The villa where the He family lives now was originally occupied by the He family's direct descendants. Later, when they went abroad, the old man bought it from them.
However, except for this house, she never took anything out of the old man's hands.
However, he gave Jiang Yu two gifts the second time he met her.
"Jiang Yu, do you still have any manners? That's your grandfather, he is the elder, and he has to pay to see you!"
Wei Xiuru's eyes turned red with anger, and she wanted to snatch the things away.
Jiang Yu was not only not angry, but also shook the gold lock in front of her.
"Are you angry? Are you angry that Grandpa gave me something, or that it's not for you? Tsk tsk, you're so anxious, but Grandpa won't give it to you, what can I do?"
Jiang Yu put the gold lock in front of her.
"Uncle Shi, go back and tell Grandpa that we'll be there in a while, but we have to prepare the things before we can negotiate the terms."
Old Shi was speechless for a moment, how could he dare to say these words.
"Grandpa is waiting at home, and he specially asked me to drive to pick you up. If it's convenient for you two, you can go now..."
Jiang Yu immediately said, "It's convenient!"
For the sake of the gold lock, she gave face to the old man today.
She handed the things to He Feiyan and put them away, "You stay at home and wait for sister-in-law to come back."
He Feiyan cleared her throat and whispered, "Sister-in-law, you'd better take it easy and don't empty out grandpa's private storehouse."
Jiang Yu tapped her head, "Are you stupid? If you don't take them, those bastards will take them."
Wei Xiuru and He Jingyi: "..." They can hear it!
Lao Shi wanted to laugh, but when he saw He Jingyi's expression, he had to hold back his laughter.
"Tingyue, shall we go?"
He Tingyue nodded, "Uncle Shi, please."
They just got in the car, and Wei Xiuru wanted to squeeze in, but was kicked down by Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu closed the door neatly, "I won't ride in the same car with a jerk."
Then he looked at the furious He Jingyi and raised the corners of his lips.
"You too. Please, Uncle Shi, drive."
The car sped past, and Wei Xiuru was so angry that she started swearing.
However, these curses were quickly left behind by Old Shi.
Old Shi sighed silently, but he did not sympathize with others and persuade Jiang Yu to let go.
When He Jingyi and Wei Xiuru did something shameless, they were all disgusted.
This feeling has not dissipated even though many years have passed.
It's just that it's the He family's business, and it's not his turn to interfere.
When they arrived at He's house, he only reminded them: "In recent years, the old man and his wife have been getting worse and worse. It would be great if you two could speak more gently."
Jiang Yu smiled and waved his hand, "Uncle Shi, don't worry, we have always respected the elderly and loved the young."
Old Shi: "..." I'm just not too sure.
