Chapter 95 Peacemaker (1)
"Is this really your home?"
I looked at the house in front of me, turned my head and looked at Mengyun standing beside me with incredible eyes. Because what I saw was only a very ordinary courtyard in front of me, it even seemed a bit dilapidated because of the age. It was hard to imagine that a high-ranking official like her father who held the power before retiring would live in such a place.
"No?" Meng Yun gave me a blank look in dissatisfaction, "Don't think that those who are high-ranking officials must live in a luxury house. Not every official eats delicious food is a corrupt person."
"Haha, I didn't expect that my father-in-law was still a clean official," I sighed, "Actually, what the people hate the most is not those corrupt officials who are willing to do things for the people and have a little unclean hands and feet. They hate the most are those who are incompetent and corrupt officials who only know how to plunder the people's wealth and incompetent and corrupt officials. From this point of view, the ordinary people in our country are the most tolerant people in the world."
"It's a pity that they forgot. Tolerance is sometimes a disguised indulgence." Meng Yun held my hand, "Okay, stop feeling, my brother came out to pick you up."
I followed her gaze and found that Tan Tianming was coming towards us. Today, Tan Tianming had a smile on his face, a kind and graceful look, and the image of the serious and serious general who looked completely different. It seems that he is not born to be a person who is serious, but because he is unable to work, he is so tired that he looks like that
"Juexiao, you are here." Tan Tianming walked up to me with a smile
"Hello, General Tan"
I quickly stretched out my hand with a smile, but Tan Tianming turned a blind eye to my outstretched hand and suddenly his face snorted coldly from his nose.
What's wrong with this? I couldn't help but be stunned. I was smiling and enthusiastic just now, but why did I change my face immediately? I didn't offend him.
"Follower" Meng Yun poked my waist with a smile and said in a low voice, "What day is today? Why are you still calling General Tan? You are so stupid."
So that's how I realized why I made Tan Tianming angry - it was the name I just offended him and thought about it. Today I was visiting my father-in-law and still calling him that when I saw my brother-in-law, isn't this obviously different?
I knew I had to correct it immediately. I immediately smiled at Tan Tianming and said, "Second brother, I'm sorry, I'm used to it. I didn't change it for a while. Please forgive me a lot this time, my second brother."
"That's all?" Tan Tianming's face was still cold
Not finished yet? I'm really confused now, "Second brother, what else do you want me to do?"
"What are you doing?" Tan Tian understood me, "As the saying goes, elder brother is like a father, I am an elder at least. According to the rules of our hometown, I have to kowtow to pay my respects to my elders for the first time. Do you even understand this?"
"Kowtow?" I was stunned, "Second brother, are you not kidding?"
Tan Tianming looked bad and snorted coldly, "Am I kidding? I'm now on a tribute."
“Here?”
"Yes, or where?"
Ah? Why am I completely stunned? I really want me to kneel down and kowtow? There are such rules these days? In fact, to be honest, Tan Tianming is already a member of my father's generation, and it's nothing to kneel down and kowtow here? I took a secret look around. Although there are not many pedestrians here, there are still many people coming and going to kneel down and kowtow here. This is a bit too...
I turned my gaze to Mengyun on the side, asking for help
"Second brother, you are so bad." Meng Yun suddenly smiled and hit Tan Tianming with a small fist. "You are not allowed to bully him, otherwise I will go to the aunt's place to complain and say that you bully him and see how the aunt dealt with you."
"Haha," Tan Tianming suddenly laughed, "I just want to see if his courage is as big as others say... hahaha."
Death, this guy is playing tricks on me
"Haha, sorry, I'm just joking with you." Tan Tianming smiled and hugged my shoulders, glanced at Meng Yun standing beside him, "Juexiao, are you not as brave as someone said?"
"Second brother, please don't scare me like this in the future," I smiled bitterly, "I'm not very brave enough to say it anymore. What day is today? I offend the old name of the Heavenly King, and I don't dare to offend you. But my brother-in-law is a senior official and a senior, and he will be a senior, and he will be a senior."
"Haha," Tan Tianming laughed heartily, "I'm older and older and I'm going to kill people, haha, it seems that being an elder is also beneficial."
"Second brother, I won't agree if you want to bully him again in the future." Meng Yun waved his pink fist in a demonstration
"No wonder people say that girls are outgoing, it's really good." Tan Tianming smiled and hugged me and walked inward, "Okay, go quickly, parents and elder brother are in a hurry to wait."
"Brother is back?" Meng Yun grabbed Tan Tianming's hand in surprise, "When will he come back? Why don't I know?"
"Their family has just arrived," Tan Tianming glanced at me and said with a smile, "Isn't it just to come back to see his brother-in-law who has never met before?"
"I'll go and see." Mengyun hurriedly ran into the yard without waiting for Tan Tianming to finish his words. From her happy and anxious look, I could feel how deep the feelings between the brother and sister were.
"This girl always looks like a child who never grows up." Tan Tianming looked at Meng Yun's back with a smile, and a loving look appeared in his eyes. He turned to look at me, and the smile on his face gradually faded, "Juexiao, you should know that my elder brother and I love Meng Yun very much. Actually, I say it seriously. Although she is our sister, her age is much worse than us. So when we treat her as our daughter, we love her as much as our daughter. Since she has decided to be with you, we all sincerely hope that you will be happy in the future. So, I don't want her to be unhappy in the future and don't want her to feel pain and regret the choice she makes now.
If that were the case, we wouldn't stand by and watch, do you understand what I mean?"
I understand that this is a subtle warning meaning: if I cannot give Mengyun happiness in the future and she feels pain, or even regrets choosing me, then I will be severely punished
I nodded, "Don't worry, I won't let you see that situation."
"I believe you." A kind smile appeared on Tan Tianming's face, "Okay, let's go, my dad and the others are still waiting for your son-in-law. Wait, your son-in-law will still report to the door."
I didn't expect Tan Tianming to like to joke so much. It seems that his usual seriousness is to treat my family because of work. Now he is his brother-in-law. He doesn't have to pretend to be serious.
"By the way, let me tell you something," Tan Tianming lowered his voice while walking, and said to me, "The two brothers in the Sima family have not been idle recently. It seems that the things they are discussing have something to do with you, and it seems that foreign forces have intervened in the grudges between you."
It's worthy of being an intelligence agent, and the news is not very informative
"By the way," Tan Tianming turned around and said in a reproachful tone, "Those two RB killers only caught that man. The woman hasn't found it yet, aren't you telling you to be careful? Why are you so dangerous? Don't joke about your life? I don't want Mengyun to be a widow at a young age."
I smiled, "Thank you for your concern, don't worry, I won't use my life as a joke."
I smiled and waved my hand to the side, and immediately Jiang Jun appeared at the intersection with two bodyguards, "I just let them hide in the dark. This may seduce the female killer to take the bait."
Tan Tianming nodded, "No, but you should be careful, I sent someone to check it out. This killer is not simple. I will send two subordinates to protect you for a while and wait until the female killer is caught."
I quickly thanked me clearly. Tan Tianming's subordinates are not ordinary people. They are all elites who have received strict training. I have to protect my safety. There should be no problem with it. It seems that people are selfish. If Mengyun and I are not in this relationship, not his brother-in-law, I believe that he would not do this. Hehe, it is really easy for someone to be an official in the court!
"I would like to remind you, you should be more careful. The guy named Chen Yue beside Ma Qingyun," Tan Tianming whispered as he walked, "That guy is a dangerous person who is impulsive and has no brains to do things entirely because of a moment of impulse. Such people are often the most dangerous. I heard from the people below that he has been threatening to give you some good looks and it is said that he has begun to arrange a plan to deal with you. You should keep more attention to him in the future."
"I remembered it." I thought of a question and hurriedly approached Tan Tianming and whispered, "Brother, I have something to ask you for help."
"What?" Tan Tianming kept walking, "But, you can't violate the principles too much."
Hehe, I laughed in my heart, this is the difference between inside and outside. If I were not his brother-in-law, I believe he would not say such things."
"That's right," I said hurriedly, "I want to ask my second brother to help me secretly investigate the financial situation of the 'Canghai' Group and check their business conditions."
"Oh," Tan Tianming stopped and turned to look at me and asked in a low voice, "If I remember correctly, that should be the company run by Xie Feng's brother-in-law. Wouldn't you be planning it?"
I smiled and said, "It's a bit like that, thank you for forcing me like this. I can't do it if I don't fight back."
Tan Tianming's eyes suddenly became sharp when he looked at me. Although he was not wearing military uniform today, the majesty he had formed over the years still made my heart tighten slightly.
"It was nothing to promise you this matter," I was about to thank Tan Tianming, but I changed my words, "But now I can't promise you. You also know why my dad came to you today for me to see everything and wait until you see our old man."
Oh, I forgot to tell you, in fact, the main purpose of my visit today is not to visit my father-in-law as simple as Mengyun's parents want to see me, but it is true that Mengyun's father wants to discuss with me how to deal with the trouble between me and Xie Feng. He wants to be a peacemaker and resolve the conflict between us. This is another main purpose of my visit today.
Although Tan Tianming politely refused me, I was not angry. I know that my current request would make you too much for him. After all, he controls the country's intelligence agency, not his private company. What he said to me just now has violated the principle of confidentiality and tells the truth. I feel much grateful to him because Tan Tianming belongs to the army and is an intelligence system. His main job is to collect intelligence from the outside world, but the intelligence work in the local area is not under his control. He just told me Chen
Yue Xiang must have sent his subordinates to find out the news that he sent his subordinates to find out. This is already a surplus of authority. If someone knows, it will be very troublesome. He does this entirely because of my relationship with Mengyun. I believe that if I was not his prospective brother-in-law, even if I was killed by Sima Qingyun and others, he would not even say a word. According to my understanding, Tan Tianming is still very principled and honest, and rarely commits favoritism and fraud. Now he can only have a trap for doing this - Aiwu and Wu. It seems that I am affected by Mengyun's light.
Seeing that I didn't say anything, Tan Tianming thought I was angry, so he hurriedly asked, "Why are you angry with my second brother?"
I shook my head quickly, "No, I'm just thinking about something."
"That's good." Tan Tianming patted my shoulder, "Okay, don't think about it, go in first, otherwise they will have to wait in a hurry."
"OK"
When I walked into the courtyard, I realized that it was not as dilapidated as outside. On the contrary, it was very elegant and neat and clean. Tan Tianming led me to the door of a main room. There were two fully armed and heroic soldiers standing. When I saw me approaching, I looked at me with a vigilant look, but I didn't say anything.
"This is what the guards in the big brother look like they see the enemy when they see me." Tan Tianming smiled and said in a low voice, "But they are very powerful, many of my subordinates are not their opponents, come in."
As he said that, he reached out and opened the door
As soon as I entered the room, I was a little dumbfounded because the small room was already full of more than a dozen people. As soon as I entered the room, everyone in the room stopped talking and turned their eyes to me with a "brush". I was a little confused for a moment.
An old lady about 70 years old sitting on the sofa opposite stood up and asked me with a smile, "Are you Jue Xiao?"
"I am" I hurriedly replied with a gentle smile, "My name is Fang Juexiao, you are--"
"Is this my aunt not calling her mother quickly, stupid," Meng Yun suddenly jumped over from the side, hugged the old lady's arm and smiled and said, "Yumu head"
"mom"
I quickly called intimately, and I knew that the old lady standing in front of me was Meng Yun’s father’s wife, that is, the aunt in her mouth looked kind and kind. She should be a very well-educated and peaceful person. If she had no cultivation, how could she allow her husband to have fun without fighting or making trouble?
Then Mengyun began to pull me and introduce everyone here to me, except for Mengyun's two sisters-in-law, the others were Mengyun's nephews and nieces, but many of those nephews and nieces were even older than me. I didn't expect that I was a little aunt.
But I wondered, there was no Mengyun's father and his elder brother among these people, where were they? Could it be that they had any objections to me and hid in front of me? I immediately scolded myself in my heart - If a fool doesn't like you, he will not invite you to the house.
"I didn't expect my uncle to be like this." Tan Tianming's daughter, Tan Xin, who is only seventeen years old, looked at me with a smile and turned to Mengyun on the side and said, "My sister-in-law, you are not honest in your words. You said he doesn't look very good, which made me worry for a long time. Now I know when I see you, what's wrong. This is just a handsome guy."
"Yes," Brother Mengyun's son Tan Ge is almost forty years old, but this "big nephew" with the colonel's epaulette hanging on his shoulders did not forget to tease his sister-in-law, "My aunt, I'm up for my uncle. My uncle is handsome. You are so ugly. Are you afraid that others will snatch him away and say this on purpose? You are obviously distorting the facts. By the way, I'll tell you that hiding a cute girl in the golden house is an old condom. This is not popular now."
One sentence made people laugh in the room
"Go and let you talk nonsense, let me see if I won't tear your mouth." Meng Yun's face turned red with shame, and she went to chase and beat her big nephew in a panic.
"Ha, why is it so lively?"
With a cheerful voice, a door next to the living room opened, and a tall old man with silver hair walked out. The old man looked handsome, with an indescribable temperament on his body. Next to him was a middle-aged woman. Although she was over the age of Huaxin, she was still beautiful and charming. When she was young, she must be a stunning woman with a stunning appearance. The eyebrows and eyes of Mengyun were seventy-sixth-slightly similar to Mengyun. This must be Mengyun's parents. Behind the two were an equally tall and majestic soldier. Needless to say, it was Mengyun's elder brother who was a general - Tan Tianxiang
"dad"
"grandfather"
