Chapter 22 of "The Exceptional Family": Strange Goods Can Be Inhabited Part Two
I want to hear more of your voices, I want to receive more of your suggestions. Now search for WeChat public account "ddxiaoshuo" and follow it to give more support to "The Supreme Family"! Lu Wei almost didn't dare believe his ears or eyes. Although he hadn't had contact with those spoiled rich kids in the capital, he had met some high-ranking officials' children from Jiangnan Province before. His impression was that although they were uneducated and untalented, they at least had some dignity.
Even if they wanted to take advantage, they wouldn't be so blunt, but would instead pretend to look down on the small amount of money and then tactfully bring it up as a favor, not because of the money.
However, Xu Yi's appearance today left him stunned, refreshing his understanding of those princes in the capital. This, this, this is also too direct, right?
"Xu Gongzi, what's your opinion?"
"Lu Wei, now I'm in your Qi Xi and got beaten up, still hospitalized. If I go back to 49 City like this, I'll become a laughing stock in the circle, and people will look down on me. Do you know how much this hurts my young heart? Do you know how much harm this will cause me?"
Xu stretched out his hand and pointed at the tightly wrapped head, "Do you think those empty words you said have any meaning to me? Do you think I don't know that you want to protect Ma Tian, and when necessary, you'll quickly make a ruthless move?"
"You think a few words of courtesy can achieve all this? No, wrong?"
"You're really underestimating me! Although I may not be able to promote you, I can decide whether or not to kick you down from up there!"
Lu was shocked, damn it, this guy is simply a naked threat, and Xu's expression is exactly like "I'm threatening you, I'm threatening you", what can you do with my attitude.
However, he really couldn't do anything to the prince in front of him. Not to mention that Xu Yi was the grandson of General Xu, even if it were the son of any leader from the provincial party committee who was bullied like this, it wouldn't be okay, let alone when General Xu was still serving as the deputy chairman of the Central Military Commission before his retirement.
This Xu Yi indeed has his own arrogant capital, and this matter is also the result of Guan Jian's precious son's actions. However, he himself must help clean up this mess, after all, both sides are still allies at present, and if Guan Jian were to have an accident now, it would be a huge blow to his prestige.
It seems that Xu Yi is going to be the laughing stock of the circle again, and it's a spiritual loss. It looks like he just wants money, as long as Xu Yi doesn't open his mouth too wide, any condition can be agreed upon.
"Xu Gongzi, what do you mean?"
Lu felt a sense of relief in his heart, as long as Xu Yi didn't have the idea to make a big deal out of this, it was fine. As for him asking for money, that didn't matter, after all, the money wasn't coming from him. Guan Fei had made plenty of money in Qi Xi over the years and would be able to shut Xu Yi's mouth.
"First, those people this morning must be sentenced to prison. I don't know how they got into the police force with such a quality. Second, the official in charge of this police station must be removed. If it weren't for their dereliction of duty, I wouldn't have suffered such a great injustice."
"Thirdly, symbolically compensate Young Master for some medical expenses, nutrition fees, spiritual loss fees and so on, just show the intention."
Xu Yi looked at the smile on Lu Weiqun's face, lightly coughed and waved his hand impatiently, "Alright, that's all for now, you go back and think about it first."
Lu was stunned, and it seemed that this compensation still had a sequel. Damn, this is refreshing. The young masters from the capital are also shameless like thugs, do they not care about their family's reputation?
Isn't this equivalent to being blackmailed?
"Xu Gongzi, do you have any other conditions? Just bring them up all at once. Lu Weiqun chuckled and said, "General Xu is a heroic figure in his lifetime, known for being straightforward and honest. I'm sure Xu Gongzi has inherited this trait from the general. If there's anything else, just bring it up frankly and I'll do my best to help you negotiate."
Xu Yi was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly understood that Lu Weiqun had misunderstood him, thinking he wanted to blackmail him with this handle. Damn it, the young master just wanted you to help spread the name of Niema back to the capital, not to treat the young master as a rascal!
"County Magistrate Lu, you can go now, I want to rest."
Xu's face sank, he leaned his head back and quickly closed his eyes, no longer looking at Lu Weiqun.
"Mr. Xu, you rest well, I'll come visit you again in two days." Lu Weiqun furrowed his brow, but ultimately didn't dare to leave abruptly, and after nodding at Xu Yi, he turned around and walked out with big strides.
The door closed gently, and Xu opened his eyes, a smile spreading across his face. Lu Weiqun had arrived, and next would be Guan Jian's turn to appear. Otherwise, don't blame me for not giving you any face! If it weren't for your son being born like this, I wouldn't have suffered such a great loss either.
If I were to make a big fuss in Jiangnan like this, I'm afraid that young master's hat would be worn on his head. With such a big commotion in Jiangnan, those people in the capital city probably won't pay attention to my Taoist identity with their boring gaze anymore.
In this way, will the people at home feel a little better?
What made Xu Yi disappointed was that until nightfall, Guan Jian still didn't show up. Mei Shufen went outside to buy some exquisite small dishes and brought them back to the hospital room. Xu Yi wolfed down a big meal, belched contentedly, lit a cigarette and took a satisfying drag.
"Hey, don't smoke, okay? Are you eager for others to know that your injury is actually no big deal?"
Mei Shufen gave Xu Yiyi a sideways glance and started clearing the table.
"Don't worry, no one will come tonight."
Xu let out a relaxed sigh and blew out a smoke ring, "Jiang Weifeng has arrived, Lu Weiqun has arrived, but Guan Jian is not here. Does this guy really not fear that I will ruin his reputation?"
"Alright, my prince, are you not afraid that your grandfather will break your legs if he finds out what you're doing in Qixi?"
Mei Shufen quickly tidied up the table, picked up the trash, and poured a cup of hot water in front of Xu Yi. "Besides, I saw Lu Weiqun leave with a terrible look on his face this afternoon. Did you make things difficult for him?"
"I just want to let my grandfather know that I still have a talent for being a spoiled brat."
Xu Yi smiled, "It's just that I want to stir up some noise in Qixi, or even the whole Jiangnan Province, let those boring people laugh at me, and make them laugh so hard they forget that I'm actually a Taoist monk who has renounced worldly life."
"Of course, being a freeloader has its advantages too. At least I can live the life I want to live comfortably, do what I want to do, and say what I want to say without having to consider other people's feelings."
Besides, others won't take what I say or do to heart because I'm a spoiled rich kid, and this life will just be about raising birds in cages and walking dogs, the family's focus will never be on me.
Mei Shufen suddenly turned around, her beautiful big eyes looking at Xu Yi, softly saying, "Xu Yi, don't be like this, okay? I know your heart is aching, if you want to cry just let it out, I won't laugh at you."
"When we can't and are unwilling to accept fate, the only choice is to change our stride!"
"Cry, why should I cry?"
Hehe, with a faint tremble in his fingers holding the cigarette, "If I hadn't entered the Taoist sect, I would have died at the age of two and a half. If I hadn't entered the Taoist sect, I wouldn't have practiced this set of skills. If I hadn't entered the Taoist sect, I wouldn't have learned the skill to cut off people's fortunes and determine their fate!"
As he spoke, his tears fell down.
Mei Shufen suddenly felt a pang in her heart, this guy looked careless and scatterbrained, but actually his inner self was fragile, he had painstakingly come to Qixi to make such a big fuss, just so that his family wouldn't be ridiculed by others.
But is this what Xu Yi himself wants, to become a Taoist priest? Who would want to become a Taoist priest unless they were seriously ill?
"Cry, cry, I can see that you've been holding this thought in your heart for a long time."
Mei Shufen walked to the bedside, holding Xu Yi's head in her arms, and stroking his hair with her fingers. "Cry it out, you just said so yourself, if we don't want to accept fate, then let's rise up and resist!"
"If others mock you as a Taoist, then be the most awesome Taoist and make them worship you with their heads bowed. Earn the most money, control the largest company, marry the most beautiful woman, and when those people see you, they will forget your Taoist identity and only think of two words!"
"Surrender!"
He suddenly lifted his head, and at this moment, he was like a sudden enlightenment. Ah, why should he be sad about such things? Since they looked down on him, a Taoist priest who had left home, then he would become a Taoist priest that made everyone dare not look straight at him, earn the most money, play with the most beautiful women, and kick whoever he didn't like directly!
Be a spoiled brat, then be the most awesome spoiled brat!
"Bang, bang, bang"
The door was knocked and Mei Shufen was startled awake by the knocking sound. She subconsciously said loudly, "Come in."
Two tall figures appeared at the door, saw the two people in the room hugging each other with tears in their eyes, and then quietly retreated and quickly closed the door.
The sound of the door closing woke up the two people who were immersed in their emotions again. Mei Shufen only then remembered that Xu Yi was crying and wailing in her arms, and must have been seen by someone just now. Her pretty face turned red with embarrassment. "Xu Yi, someone's here, I'll go open the door."
He nodded slightly, lifted his sleeve to wipe his cheek, and the 20 years of living in the harsh environment had already tempered his will like steel. Since he had determined his life's goal, all that was left was to move forward!
Be a tyrant, be the strongest and most powerful tyrant, make everyone look down on me, and let them surrender at my feet!
"Xu Yi, Secretary Guan of the Qi Xi County Committee has come to see you." Mei Shufen walked over and opened the door, only to see Guan Fei holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand. Behind him stood an old man with a gloomy face, who was none other than Guan Jian She, the Deputy Secretary of the Qi Xi County Committee.
