Chapter 25 The Servant's Status Is Increasingly Elevated
It's definitely a stupid question, and I'm not even surprised why he asked it, because the answer is so obvious.
However, even asking is useless, after all... I have no right to choose.
Fortunately, Ji Xiao didn't seem to really want to know my answer. Seeing that I didn't speak, he just stood up, put his hand heavily on my forehead, and then pushed me down...
Inevitably, I fell on the sofa because of this, and in the flipped view, I saw Ji Xiao walking upstairs, his blood slightly soaked in the gauze on his shoulder was particularly dazzling.
One day a year later, after a seemingly casual inquiry, I learned that during the "trip" of the Yu family, Ji Xiao had been hiding in the dark under his father's order, always on guard against accidents happened.
"I expected that the Lin family would jump over the wall in a hurry and send someone to kill them." When talking about this incident, Ji Xiao seemed a little careless. He was lying on the same bed with me at that time, and his breath was very close to the pinna : "I should ask for some protection money, what do you think?"
Let's talk about it again, anyway, since that trip, the Yu family has been uncharacteristically peaceful both internally and externally, and I will be arranged by my father every day to go to the Yu family compound with Ji Xiao and start studying Take over the work related to the internal affairs of Yujia.
Ji Xiao was extremely dissatisfied with the things I started to touch about Yu's family. More than once, he said that his father was so blind that he chose an idiot as a military adviser.
Even in front of my father, he dared to say that, looking as if he wished that I would be kicked out of Yu's house by my father. I secretly sighed at his boldness, but I didn't dare to talk back in front of my father. I could only take advantage of his unpreparedness. Stomped on him under the table.
And Dad... Yuemo is because of his illness, and his temper is much better than in previous years. Ji Xiao's offensive words only made him sigh helplessly. It didn't work, Dad never had any intention of changing his decision, it just made me suffer, the feeling of "working" with Ji Xiao, it is no exaggeration to say that it is not much different from Shang Xing.
Sometimes I really want to ask my father why Ji Xiao is now qualified to be a domineering figure in the Yu family. Although I have long guessed his identity, I always hesitate to ask some questions.
By chance, I knew that Yu Jingsheng had been discharged from the hospital, but my father didn't seem to have any plans to call him back to the Yu family. Now the "management" of the entire Yu family seemed sparsely populated. Ji Xiao said that this was because of his careful investigation. Over all the results of his men.
The one in the worst condition is the Fifth Sister.
Fifth Sister's mother's family is the Lin family. Some time ago, Mr. Lin, who had been holding his breath for a long time, finally passed away, and because there was no successor, the new Lin family took over was a collateral cousin who was far away from the family.
The first step for the new head of the Lin family was to expel Fifth Younger Sister and her mother from the house. His words were high-sounding: "Our family cannot tolerate the lackeys of the Yu family."
In the afternoon of the next day, the Xinlin family sent people to Lao Die's site to make trouble, taking advantage of the chaos and beating to death two of Lao Die's subordinates, and an innocent wealthy client who was implicated.
Making trouble in the place where the Yu family does business is undoubtedly a slap in the face of the Yu family. It is easy to say that the money should be paid to the rich man, but if the lost face cannot be regained, it may be difficult for the Yu family to stand up in front of other families. prestige.
During the whole thing, only Fifth Sister was innocent.
She didn't understand the world of adults, and she didn't want to see the Yu family and the Lin family fight to the death. She even ran to her father to plead for mercy, saying that the Lin family also had good people, and she didn't want him to "do that".
"m" "'f" "x" "y"%
Not to mention seeing it before, Wumei must have heard of Dad's thunder method, she was afraid that Dad would do cruel things, she didn't know that if we didn't do it, others would treat us like that.
Fifth Sister is the little sun flower in my heart. I just like to read comics and bask in the sun on weekdays. Now I see her crying all day long, her eyes still swollen, and I feel unspeakably uncomfortable.
The father originally planned to send Ji Xiao to deal with this matter, but that night the eldest brother called and told the father that he would take care of everything.
When the old man received the call, Ji Xiao only stood not far from the window, with his hands folded around his chest, and smiled for no reason.
The old man frowned first, then coughed lightly, and vetoed the other end of the phone: "Do what you should do, and leave the rest alone."
When returning to the mansion that night, Ji Xiaowu said: "Did Yu Qingshu tell you what he is doing now?"
For a moment I broke out in a cold sweat, and my first reaction was——Ji Xiao shouldn't have known about what my brother said to me, right?
"Are you willing to come with me?" More than once, this sentence came to my ears. I thought about it over and over for several nights, but I couldn't figure out what the meaning of my elder brother's words was.
Fortunately, Ji Xiao didn't seem to be asking me about this. He leisurely asked himself and answered: "Mr. Yu is really out of his mind now. He actually sent Yu Qingshu to find Yu Jingsheng. Does he still think that the two of them can rebuild the old relationship?" Said He even hummed a song.
Wei Wei stood up, my first reaction to the series of information he released was disbelief, "How do you know?" Dad hasn't revealed any news about Yu Jingsheng and elder brother recently, I thought it was because he didn't want to Regardless of Yu Jingsheng, and elder brother, I thought he had been preparing for his "departure", but I didn't expect...
It was only when Ji Xiao arrived at the mansion that he gave an "answer". As usual, he answered the wrong question.
"From the moment Yu Jingsheng left the hospital, he disappeared. He told his father to leave him alone and not ask anyone to check him." After stopping the car, Ji Xiao turned his head slightly. The outline is like a beautifully shaped mountain, "The old man doesn't want us to know, he doesn't want anyone to know his...failure."
Leaning slightly, he opened the car door and walked out, and I quickly opened the car door to follow him.
In the small garden outside the mansion, on the path paved with cobblestones, Ji Xiao's figure stood there, looking a little cunning and a little lonely.
"But you secretly checked behind Dad's back..."
Ji Xiao laughed, and he turned his head, as if he was sarcasm, but also as if he was very complacent: "You think too simply."
·
After that, the Yu family was still calm, and the father never held any family gatherings, his complexion visibly turned gray, until he fell ill again to a lesser degree.
And I finally got the qualification to go to the hospital with him for the first time.
"Xiao Deng, I'm getting old." I heard my father say that in the wheelchair.
"Mr. Yu is not too old, but his problems are not small, plus the old injuries from his youth..." The doctor sighed, "To solve this problem, we need an operation."
Only then did I know that my father had been sick for much longer than I expected.
Don't you know?Has the third child never noticed it?Where is the fourth child?I think they should be the ones guarding the operating room more than me and Ji Xiao.
Even in the past, no matter how strict the father was to them, in essence, he still loved his children.
In the hospital, Ji Xiao and I were separated on both sides of the corridor, Ji Xiao looked very quiet, I stared at him, but found that I seemed to be becoming more and more impenetrable to him.
"That day," I opened my mouth, "the last family gathering, you and Dad left suddenly, did you just..."
Ji Xiao only tilted his head, his slender body leaned slightly against the smooth wall of the hospital corridor, the light here was very dim, the color was even greenish, and the sharp blade-shaped necklace around his neck seemed to be the only warm and warm place here. Hue stuff.
"Why didn't you tell everyone."
"Old Master Yu's meaning," Ji Xiao put his hands in his trouser pockets and looked up, "At that time, he couldn't be sick."
This kind of thing, only Ji Xiao knew about it all the time. It seems that, in fact, I usually estimate that his status in Dad's mind is much lower than it actually is.
This operation is not very risky, but I know that after this operation, my father should no longer be able to worry about the affairs of the Yu family.
The phone rang at this moment, and the sound seemed particularly abrupt in the empty and quiet corridor.
It was my elder brother's phone call, facing Ji Xiao's gaze, I turned slightly sideways, subconsciously trying to avoid the probing gaze, so I turned around and walked towards the end of the corridor.
"Little lamp," said the eldest brother, who seemed to be in an extremely quiet environment, his voice was very gentle, giving people a kind of heart-warming power, "Do you still remember my question?"
Is he talking about leaving?Glancing in the direction of Dad's operating room, I'm not sure if my elder brother knows what Dad's situation is at this time. I feel that not far away, Ji Xiao is staring at me, and my elder brother is also silent at the other end, as if Waiting for my answer.
What should I do, should I tell my eldest brother the news of my father's illness at this time?Reason tells me that I shouldn't speak at this time, because Dad and Ji Xiao have been hiding this matter from everyone all the time, at least, I mean at least, I have to discuss it with Ji Xiao and Dad first.
"Is it not convenient to talk?" The elder brother sighed shallowly, "Whether you come or not, four days later, early in the morning, around eight o'clock, the address I gave you before, I will contact you when you arrive."
That previous address?In other words, does the eldest brother plan to take Ms. Song with him when he leaves this time?Faintly aware that things are not so simple, I think I will go, but not just leave with my elder brother, I will ask everything clearly.
Since the eldest brother is worrying about his mother's affairs now, it is better to observe and observe the situation of the father, and then decide whether to tell him or not.
Hang up the phone, and just returned to Ji Xiao's side, the door of the operating room opened.
Ji Xiao and I went up almost at the same time. Fortunately, the doctor said that the operation was a success, "Patients should not have too much mood swings, you must pay attention to this."
I nodded and told him I got it.
The doctor seemed to regard Ji Xiao as his father's son, and said that there were still a lot of related matters that needed to be discussed and signed. Ji Xiao didn't shirk, and walked over directly.
But at the moment when he passed by, he asked in a low voice, "Did you call from Yu Qingshu?"
·
When my father was still awake, Ji Xiao returned to the ward, he cut to the chase, and asked me very directly and bluntly:
"What did Yu Qingshu say?"
I didn't answer the question, and only asked him in a negotiating tone: "Should I tell my elder brother about Dad's current situation?"
Ji Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, "I'm afraid he doesn't have time to care about these things now."
"These"?This is a big deal, I don't understand that the old man's matter can be skipped in such an understatement, I frowned, thinking that this is a ward, and it's not suitable to argue, so I finally endured it.
Dad recovered well. It was a minor operation. After two days of recuperation, he was discharged from the hospital and returned to Yu's house.
After my father got sick, all the affairs of the Yu family seemed to be on Ji Xiao and me. There were many problems that needed to be dealt with, and even the matter of the Lin family had to be put on hold for the time being.
Because the big brother’s words were too weird, I couldn’t help thinking about the reason when I was free. Counting the days, I didn’t forget the time and place that the big brother told me, four days, today is the third day, I plan to wait a while , at lunch, before the soup is served.
I don't want to ask for leave from Ji Xiao, who is barely my "boss" at this time, so I plan to ask my father directly about the meal time.
The third younger brother no longer likes to go back to Yu’s house to play as usual, and the fifth younger sister eats with us every day because she has nowhere to go. Ji Xiao is also at the dining table, on the right side of the old man who is sitting in the main seat .
Silently observing the situation of everyone at the table, because no one spoke, the room was extremely silent, and for a while, only the slight sound of tableware and porcelain colliding could be heard.
I was waiting for a good time to talk, Tang guessed that he would be here soon, if Ji Xiao felt it, he raised his eyes and looked over, his eyes seemed to say: What's the trouble?
The old man kept his eyes down, and now his eating movements have become a lot slower. The way he lifts the bowl slightly, not to mention, really gives people the illusion of "he is very kind".
"Here comes the soup—" the aunt who cooks came in with the utensils, and I secretly cursed that I missed the opportunity, no, I have to say before the servant serves the soup for my father——
At this moment, the door of the Yu family's room suddenly opened, and a man in black walked into the room, about to be Ji Xiao's subordinate, his face was full of horror, the first time he arrived at the dinner table, he grabbed Ji Xiao Xiao Xiao's arms and legs seemed to be a little weak, and he squatted down slowly.
Ji Xiao frowned, "What's the matter? Say it!" He picked up his collar and forced him to stand, his expression suddenly became stern and decisive.
"Fourth Young Master...Fourth Young Master, he... used fire... a flamethrower, burned, burned the Eldest Young Master's car..."
For a moment, the room was so quiet that even the sound of breathing was a little harsh.
After about ten seconds of silence—"And then? Are you fucking dumb?"
The little brother took a long time to catch his breath before he tried to speak again, but he seemed to feel that the air was burning his throat—"On the spot...there was an explosion on the spot. There were three people in the car, two men and one woman...face And the body was burned...I can't tell who it is...who..."
The sound of the father suddenly falling to the ground and the scream of the fifth sister sounded almost at the same time. There was only a thin line between tranquility and madness.
