Meng Mingxuan was still thinking about it when Old Man Yan suddenly let out a cry and pulled his hand away from her head.
"Grandpa, what's wrong?" She came back to her senses.
Old Master Yan said angrily and amusedly, "Why is there still electricity in your head, girl?"
"..." It's probably because his father rubbed his hair for too long, causing static electricity.
Old Master Yan naturally knew this and changed the subject, "Shao Ting, this matter is settled. I'll ask your butler grandfather to call him over later and talk about this matter. He dares not listen."
"Miss, I'll take you there." The old butler said with a smile.
Meng Mingxuan wondered how long she could sit there. After all, her grandfather had promised to side with her ninth brother. But when the housekeeper spoke, she stood up.
"Grandpa, I cried so ugly today that it bothered you. I'll come drink tea with you another day."
"Yeah." Old Master Yan looked at the old butler. What did this old guy want to do by tricking Mingxuan away?
Meng Mingxuan got up and went out, but when she got in the car, she saw the old housekeeper also got in.
She quickly moved aside to make room.
"Go to the master." After fastening his seat belt, the old butler instructed Xu Li.
"Okay." Xu Li naturally knew that the old butler was talking about going to Yan's department.
The car quickly drove to Yan Zheng's executive villa. Yan Zheng had been discharged from the hospital, but was still recuperating. He was now sitting in the living room looking at documents.
After getting off the car, Meng Mingxuan asked the old housekeeper, and the old housekeeper just told her not to make any noise for a while and to support him.
Meng Mingxuan didn't quite understand at first how she could support the old housekeeper.
It was not until she and the old housekeeper walked into the living room of Yan Zheng's executive villa and Yan Zheng put down the things in his hand and asked her in a calm voice whether she wanted juice or tea and what kind of fruit she wanted to eat that she gradually understood what the old housekeeper was saying to Yan Zheng.
Yan Zheng would definitely give face to the old housekeeper and even to Old Master Yan, but now Yan Zheng favors her ninth brother, so he would naturally give her face.
Unfortunately, she couldn't recognize Yan Zheng.
"Thank you, Mr. Yan. I'll have some tea." Meng Mingxuan looked at the old housekeeper. "Where's the old housekeeper? What would you like to drink?"
"놖Just like the young lady, drink tea." said the old butler.
Yan Zheng then asked the plainclothes officer to make tea, and he complained about the old housekeeper's address to him, "You are the young master Xiaojiu, and you are the young lady Mingxuan. Are you afraid that others will gossip about you?"
"No." The old housekeeper smiled, "You will not appear in front of the outsiders."
Outsiders had no chance to hear him calling her "Miss".
Yan Zheng paused, "Flatterer."
Or it was because the people under Xiaojiu's command all called Meng Mingxuan like that.
Yan Zheng thought for a moment and added one more word: "Old flatterer."
Meng Mingxuan: “…”
She actually had to support the situation. It was awkward to hear the elders bickering.
They are two elders from a different generation.
The old butler was also not angry. He smiled and waited for the plainclothes officer to bring the tea and retreat to the door. He then put his hands in front of him and said respectfully: "Sir, your injury should be almost healed. As the butler of the Yan family, I really have to talk to you privately about these things."
Yan Zheng took out his cell phone, turned on the recording, and placed it on the coffee table.
"Go ahead."
The old housekeeper's eyes twitched. There was no way to communicate.
"Miss, please reach out and turn off the recording." The old butler looked at Meng Mingxuan.
“…”
She just...
Meng Mingxuan hesitated for three seconds, and despite the pressure from Yan Zheng, she carefully reached out to press the red stop button on her phone.
Fortunately, Minister Yan did not hit her on the back of her hand, nor did he scold her.
Meng Mingxuan breathed a sigh of relief.
The old housekeeper cleared his throat and began to speak: "Sir, regarding the cause of Yan Yichang's death and the Xu family's conspiracy, I think you'd better tell the truth to the old man. It's normal for you to resent the old man for sending you away that year, but you know that if you made the mistake and you left sadly, the old man would also send someone to send you on board. The old man never used any means to separate you and you. This is all the bitter fruit you sowed. If the old man knew that he sent you on board to return to Lincheng, the Xu family killed three birds with one stone, including you, Yan Yichang, and you, and even Master Ting's mother suffered misfortune, the old man would definitely bear such a blow."
Meng Mingxuan was completely stunned.
9. Brother Jiu never told her the cause and effect of this...
So shocking, so explosive.
Yan Zheng was silent for a while, "You used to be his Young Master Yichang?"
The old housekeeper thought Yan Yichang was not a good match.
In the past, he gave face to the old man, but now the old man is unwilling to mention Yan Yichang again, so he doesn't need to put himself in a difficult position.
"Who told you this?" Yan Zheng asked.
"It's the eldest young master." The old housekeeper smiled bitterly, "The eldest young master said that you hate the old man so much that when you are discharged from the hospital, you will definitely use these things to persuade the old man and ask him to prepare a quick-acting heart-saving device in advance."
Yan Zheng slowly lit a cigarette and sneered, "He has completely forgotten the revenge for his mother."
"That's right!" Meng Mingxuan immediately spoke up to defend him, "Ninth brother has a sense of right and wrong. Grandpa didn't harm Mother, it was the Xu family."
"What's Ninth Brother? He is nothing to you, but you keep calling him Ninth Brother." Yan Zheng was aware of the whispers in the Beijing circle, so he made sure to pay attention to them.
I didn't dare to say too much, but I didn't drink too much and say anything disgusting.
"Don't call him Yan Mojiu in front of outsiders. Do you think he treats you as an outsider?" Meng Mingxuan said seriously.
“…”
놊葵 is ashamed to have grown up with Xiaojiu and he is quite sharp-tongued.
Yan Zheng thought to himself that he was not going to meet a little girl, so he turned to look at the old housekeeper: "Do you agree?"
"You know very well that as long as the old man is alive, the young master's life will be easier. A few days ago, the senior leader came to visit the old mansion because of the Yan family's affairs. If the old man had died, you and the young master would not have such a smooth road ahead."
The old housekeeper paused and said, "You plant trees in front and enjoy the shade in the back. If you rely on the tree, you are a fool. Back then, Empress Wu relied on Emperor Gaozong, the big tree. How can you trample a group of enemies in high positions under your feet? What do you think?"
“…”
He wanted to usurp power, so why would he compare himself with Empress Wu?
Yan Zheng was too lazy to confront the old housekeeper, so he waved his hand and said, "I know, you can go back."
"Okay, sir." The old housekeeper knew it was a deal as soon as he heard it, "Miss, let's go."
"Mingxuan, stay and talk to me for a while." Yan Zheng said.
"My pharyngitis seems to be acting up, cough..." Meng Mingxuan stood up.
Yan Zheng looked at her coldly as she hid behind the old housekeeper.
What can he do to her?
He just wanted to ask some questions.
OK.
This is what it feels like to be alone.
"Let's all go."
Yan Zheng put out the cigarette in the ashtray and said solemnly.
The old housekeeper pulled Meng Mingxuan to the door. Meng Mingxuan couldn't help but look back and saw Yan Zheng leaning on the sofa with his eyes closed, looking lonely and desolate.
At that moment she did feel compassion.
But when she thought of the scene when Mother Yan held her hand and closed her eyes reluctantly, and she cried with Father Yan and Brother Nine, she finally turned around and walked out of the villa.
