Chapter 51 Relatives I Have Never Met
"Why are you all silent? Isn't it a good thing that her mother's relatives are coming to see her?" Xu Ruying interrupted in confusion, instantly disrupting the heavy atmosphere.
The messenger nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, it's a good thing. Those who run errands will get paid."
Xu Ruying didn't know the twists and turns inside, and smiled and said, "Li Xiaoya, is your mother's family so rich?"
Li Xiaoya had wiped the tears from her face and whispered, "I don't know. ... I have never seen them."
Xu Ruying was surprised and was about to say, "Your mother didn't elope, did she?" But Xu Ruying was from a scholarly family after all, so she knew that this guess was not appropriate to say, so she swallowed it back.
"After not seeing you for many years, he suddenly comes to see you. Maybe it's something bad." Xu Ruying speculated.
The messenger was anxious: "How can that be? It must be a good thing! He wears a suit and leather shoes, and he even gives us cigarettes and money. Can you say he is a bad person?"
Xu Ruying was speechless.
Sheng Yuxiao thought that the person might be someone Xu Ji had sent for, so he interrupted and said, "Let's go and take a look."
At this time, it was Li Xiaoya who spoke up. She said firmly, "I have to go to school first. I will go to see him after school."
The informant slapped his thigh in anxiety: "Why are you still going to school? I can see that your relatives are rich! I think they are much richer than Li Hongguang. I heard that Li Hongguang's company collapsed..."
"Why did mom's family come here only now?" Li Xiaoya asked back softly.
The messenger had not read many books and was stumped by the question.
"Why doesn't he come here directly?" Li Xiaoya asked again.
The messenger was speechless, but soon retorted: "He is a city man, very arrogant, he must want us to go see him, how can he come here to see a child like you."
A look of disappointment flashed across Li Xiaoya's face, and his tone suddenly became firm: "Then he is not my mother's relative."
The messenger was dumbfounded: "What did you say? How is that possible? If it wasn't true, why would people from the city come all the way here to recognize their relatives?"
Li Xiaoya had already grabbed Sheng Yuxiao's hand and said, "Let's go to school."
Sheng Yuxiao nodded, and was also very angry.
Was this person sent by my uncle? How could he be so stupid! Why is he putting on airs?
After cursing this man in his heart, Sheng Yuxiao couldn't help but touch Li Xiaoya's head and said, "You really are..."
"Li Xiaoya, you are quite smart!" But Xu Ruying was the first to say it. Xu Ruying felt more and more that this child gave her many surprises.
People often say that a person's limitations are determined by the environment he or she is in.
As for Li Xiaoya... She may not know what LV is, or what a five-star hotel looks like, but she seems to have seen through human nature a long time ago. The two tears she shed just now showed that she was clearly excited, but she quickly calmed down.
Xu Ruying sighed, thinking that maybe her parents would really like her.
Researchers like them dislike emotional people the most. People who can remain calm and think calmly no matter what situation they are in are very popular in all walks of life!
Li Xiaoya still went to school.
Sheng Yuxiao was afraid of hurting her feelings, so he leaned forward from behind as he walked and whispered in her ear, "I found this person to take your custody away from your grandfather."
Li Xiaoya was not sad. She just thought about it and suddenly said, "That's not right."
"What's wrong?"
"Why doesn't he dare to come?"
Sheng Yuxiao's attention was just on Li Xiaoya, but after hearing what she said, he suddenly understood.
"This person either doesn't dare to appear in the camera, or doesn't dare to see me. Or maybe both." Sheng Yuxiao paused and sneered, "It seems that you are right. This may really be a bad thing."
Xu Ruying was shocked by their conclusion, and then she said decisively: "Damn, what does this person want? I'll go meet him for a while, wait."
"Don't worry." Sheng Yuxiao whispered to comfort Li Xiaoya.
If it weren't for them, Li Xiaoya really didn't know how many monsters and demons he would have to face alone!
The "relatives from her mother's side" mentioned by the informant were waiting at the village committee. When Xu Ruying went there, she found that Dou Dawei was there too.
Dou Dawei was holding two bags in his hands. When he saw Xu Ruying, he quickly greeted her: "Miss Xu, I was originally going to give Xiaoya some ham. Later, I heard that Xiaoya's relatives came to visit, so I came to take a look."
Xu Ruying was quite surprised.
There are quite a lot of people who care about Lai Siu Duck?
Dou Dawei walked forward and said in a low voice, "But why doesn't this person want to talk to me?"
Xu Ruying looked over.
The man was wearing a black suit and had a scar on his face. He looked ferocious, as if he had some English and French genes mixed in. He looked down at his watch for a while, then said to the villagers in a very cold tone: "You took my money, but you didn't do my job well."
"Hey, who are you to Li Xiaoya?" Xu Ruying asked.
"Her assassin."
Xu Ruying almost couldn't help laughing: "What year is it now? Are there still death warriors?"
The man in black suit stared at her grimly without making any explanation.
"Okay, you are like the assassin in that costume movie, right? Then you are Li Xiaoya's subordinate, and Li Xiaoya is your master. How can a master come to see his subordinates? " Xu Ruying thought to herself, are you mentally ill?
The man in the black suit didn't move: "She hasn't gotten my approval yet."
Xu Ruying: “…”
Xu Ruying scolded: "You really think you are an actor in a costume film!"
Xu Ruying didn't want to say anything more and just turned around and left.
evening.
When Li Xiaoya returned home, Xu Ruying immediately came up to her and said, "That so-called relative might be a mental patient."
Then he mentioned the "death soldier" remarks.
Li Xiaoya was stunned and said, "It sounds like a martial arts novel."
"You even read martial arts novels? Do you know what martial arts novels are?"
Li Xiaoya tilted his head, his face full of expression saying, "I'm not a fool."
Xu Ruying had no choice but to cough lightly and said, "Then let me test you..."
"Don't take the exam anymore." Sheng Yuxiao interrupted.
He is well-informed and said, "This style is a bit like that of a ghost family."
"Wei family?"
"No, it's 鬼, but as a surname it's pronounced 'wei'."
Xu Ruying said without thinking: "Li Xiaoya, if this is really your relative, you must not recognize him. This surname is so ugly!"
Sheng Yuxiao rolled his eyes at her and said, "Wait, I'll make a call."
Fortunately, Sheng Yuxiao had accumulated a lot of points during this period, and it happened to be outside the live broadcast period, so he generously dialed the number to his uncle.
"Uncle, can I be sent out?" Sheng Yuxiao asked politely.
The staff were all outside the door at the moment, otherwise they would definitely be shocked to see him like this.
"Hmm? Who are you going to let listen?"
"Nothing else, they are all family, Xu Ruying, Ning Heng, Li Xiaoya."
Xu Ji did not correct him that Li Xiaoya was not one of their own.
He spoke directly: "Tell me, what's the matter?"
So Xu Ruying repeated it again.
Xu Ji's voice was so gentle that even through the phone line you could feel that he might be leaning on the sofa very relaxedly, with his chin lazily supported by one hand.
He said, "Oh, Sicilian style. They love this dead soldier thing."
"The Sicilian Mafia? It should have declined eight hundred years ago." Ning Heng interrupted in confusion.
"But someone has always been controlling them. Well, it's the Overseas Chinese Ghost Family, but everyone is used to calling them the Wei Family." Xu Ji seemed to recall and said, "They seem to have returned to China recently because their boss is dying and they are eager to return to their roots. There is an interesting story. Do you want to hear it?"
Xu Ji was obviously not very old, but he spoke in the tone of an elder coaxing a younger person.
"You say." Xu Ruying praised.
"Wei Xuanming, the head of the Wei family, had six children in his life. The eldest son and daughter died early, the second daughter had a mental illness, the second son was paralyzed, the youngest daughter was missing, and the youngest son was mute. Some people said that Wei Xuanming climbed too high and incurred God's punishment, and he had no luck in having children in this life. Wei Xuanming actually believed it and later converted to worshipping Allah. But it seems to be of no use, because his life is coming to an end..."
Sheng Yuxiao hung up the phone with a snap.
Xu Ji on the other end:?
Sheng Yuxiao looked at Li Xiaoya and whispered, "Everything in this world is called 'interesting news' in my uncle's mouth. He doesn't mean to laugh at the joke."
Li Xiaoya nodded somewhat bewilderedly.
So...are they her relatives?
At this time, Sheng Yuxiao's cell phone rang again.
Xu Ji's voice came from the other end: "Dare you hang up on me?"
After he finished speaking, he changed the subject and said, "If the Wei family claims to be Li Xiaoya's relatives, then you should be careful about Li Xiaoya's life. Do you know how huge a fortune Wei Xuanming has? No matter if they are cousins, cousins, distant or near, everyone will covet this huge wealth. Moreover... if you can become Wei Xuanming's heir, it is not impossible to go abroad and become an underground emperor."
After Xu Ji finished speaking, he hung up the phone first this time.
Sheng Yuxiao frowned, but heard Li Xiaoya ask softly: "So, you are looking for me for the inheritance? Will someone kill me?"
"Yes, but don't be afraid, we will protect you." Sheng Yuxiao said firmly.
Li Xiaoya frowned sadly: "What about them?"
"who?"
"The mentally ill second daughter, the paralyzed second son, the mute youngest son...are they also the legal heirs, right? Will someone want to kill them too?"
Sheng Yuxiao was speechless.
She was actually worrying about her relatives whom she had never met!
