Chapter 38
Chapter 38
Maybe Gu Donglin was sick in bed and lacked energy or was heartbroken, so he didn't contact Meng Jiao again.
Coupled with the end of the internship at the TV station, Meng Jiao had nothing else to do and officially entered into a leisurely holiday life.
The weather was too hot and I didn't want to go fishing, so I stayed at home and started a few live broadcasts of painting.
Now the people in the live broadcast room have lost their temper. They called Meng Jiao "unfilial son" and "unfilial nephew" a few times, and chased him honestly.
The only thing that can make Meng Jiao go out is after the sun goes down, relying on her love for Meng Zhenhua and her belief in caring for the widowed and lonely elderly, even if she is scolded by Meng Zhenhua, no matter what happens.
Meng Zhenhua's door lock has Meng Jiao's fingerprints entered, and he can come and go freely, which is like a second home.
"Grandpa, do you have to give me a certificate for being the most filial grandson in the world?" Meng Jiao came over with the sugar water packed outside.
Besides Meng Zhenhua, there was another guest in the living room.
"I haven't been in shape all day." Meng Zhenhua had to go back like a conditioned reflex, and handed the clean towel prepared by the table early to Meng Jiao, "Come and drink some herbal tea."
"Fortunately, it's not too hot today."
There is a lot of rain in this summer, and the air is full of water vapor. When Meng Jiao stood next to Jiang Yuenian, he seemed to feel the damp atmosphere outside, like butterflies that were about to land on the ground before the rainy season and rub shoulders. .
"Teacher Jiang came here so diligently that he almost outcompeted me." Meng Jiao joked, "What a coincidence."
Another tacit understanding reached with Jiang Yuenian is that they are good friends who are familiar with each other in front of the old man.
"Unfortunately, I'm leaving soon." Jiang Yuenian replied with a smile.
The rain had stopped at times, but the sky was still cloudy.
Meng Zhenhua looked out the window: "Yue Nian, today is the anniversary of your mother's death, please present me a bouquet of flowers."
Meng Jiao looked sideways.
"Okay, thank you." Jiang Yuenian nodded.
Meng Zhenhua waved his hand, then turned to ask Meng Jiao: "They are all juniors, do you want to go?"
Rejection at this time is a very ignorant thing, and Meng Jiao himself did not resist, and agreed straight away: "Okay."
The scenery around the cemetery in the south of the city is beautiful, and the rain-wet trees along the road reveal a deeper, washed greenness against the backdrop of the sky.
Meng Jiao followed Jiang Yuenian's footsteps and stopped in front of a tombstone.
The woman in the photo frowned slightly, and she could feel her slight melancholy through the photo.
When Jiang Yuenian put flowers on the front and back of her tombstone, Meng Jiao also bent down to offer a bouquet.
"Is there anything you want to say to her?" Meng Jiao asked, "I'll avoid it."
Jiang Yuenian shook his head: "No need."
He stared at the photo on the stele with dim eyes.
After a long period of silence, Jiang Yuenian suddenly said, "She died in front of me."
"Ah?" Meng Jiao subconsciously let out a short doubt.
Later, recalling the relevant plot, Jiang Yuenian's mother committed suicide, and just happened to be bumped into by Jiang Yuenian who was returning home, which became his psychological shadow for the rest of his life.
He lightly touched the back of Jiang Yuenian's hand: "It's okay, maybe they have become happy and happy little girls, and they will definitely not meet scumbags in the future."
"They?" Jiang Yuenian inquired.
Meng Jiao stared at the tombstone: "I mean my mother."
The paper figurine's feelings are only limited to the author's narration. The author did not mention the original owner's mother, and Meng Jiao has no relevant memories. What he mentioned was the mother in the previous life.Maybe the atmosphere was just right, he said it unconsciously.
Jiang Yuenian asked, "What kind of person is she?"
"She was very kind and gentle, but unfortunately she passed away." Meng Jiao recalled, "Sometimes it is fortunate that she left early, so as not to suffer with us."
"Is it hard?" Jiang Yuenian asked.
Meng Jiao recalled the experience of the previous life and said: "It was very hard for a while, but I don't want to mention it."
It was during the bankruptcy period. After the scumbag father broke out and cheated, the mother had a heart attack and the rescue failed. At the same time that the family's family was in trouble, the favored son of heaven fell into the clouds.
At the most difficult time, Meng Jiao's drawing board was snatched and smashed by other people nearby who were jealous of the business. He squatted under the bridge hole rubbing his hands that were slightly twitching due to exhaustion after a day, feeling that life was so boring.
Meng Jiao doesn't like to praise suffering, nor does he like to beautify suffering, but the memory will make him gradually forget it.
Jiang Yuenian held his hand.
Meng Jiao raised his eyebrows in surprise, but instead of breaking free, he smiled and shook his hands back.
It was clear that Meng Jiao was simply consoling, but Jiang Yuenian sank even deeper.
But the feeling of being cherished by others, to be precise, the feeling of being looked down upon by Meng Jiao is too good, he is willing to fly moths to the flames.
Even Meng Jiao's feelings for him may only be comforting.
"If you plan to send me off later, then send me back to Grandpa's house." After getting in the car, Meng Jiao put on his seat belt.
Jiang Yuenian turned his face to look at him, a little dazed: "I thought you were going home."
Did Meng Jiao take a special trip with him?
"Why are you so surprised?" Meng Jiao raised his eyebrows with a sense of ridicule, "I'm not so cold-blooded."
With a smile in his eyes, he stared at Jiang Yuenian's face for a while, he didn't know how many sincere persuasions and fake teasing: "Mr. Jiang, it's just a little etiquette among friends, don't take it to heart."
Jiang Yuenian understood his subtext.
Don't be so easily moved.
He also raised a smile, his handsome eyes were soothed, and he looked like he didn't let oily smoke in; "I know, so if there is a need, I will repay it elsewhere, don't worry."
Meng Jiao is not popular anywhere, and may have already developed an immune response to words: "Okay, come on."
"Thank you, I will work harder." Jiang Yuenian started the engine.
Instead of using "hard work", I replaced it with "force", and I know where it is used.
I learned it everywhere, polluting the ears of the Chinese teacher.
……
Within two hours, seeing Meng Jiao go back and forth, Meng Zhenhua was also surprised: "Why are you back again? Do you want to live with me?"
"If I don't come back, I'll stay here with you." Meng Jiao shook his head, "It's been raining for the past two days, I'm afraid your joint pain will recur again, so I can take care of you by staying closer."
Meng Zhenhua subconsciously grinned a little, and then managed to control the upturned corners of his mouth before he could retort angrily: "Who wants you to take care of it? Haven't you heard a word called old and vigorous?"
Meng Jiao covered her ears as if she didn't hear, and pushed open the door of the guest room familiarly.
The layout of the guest room is equivalent to another master bedroom, even more gorgeous, all the valuables are piled up in the guest room, full of that kind of pampering atmosphere.
Duplicity of the little old man.
There are everything in the house, Meng Jiao doesn't need to prepare anything.
After sleeping until noon, when I opened the curtains, it was raining lightly and wetly.After pushing the door open, Meng Zhenhua was chatting with someone again.
Meng Jiao murmured in his heart.
It was so lively, no wonder he was driven away every time. It turned out that he received many guests every day, so he was not lonely at all.
Another person sitting on the sofa said softly, "Ajiao."
What wind brought Meng Jinyan here.
Unlike Jiang Yue's relaxed posture when he was in New Year's Eve, Meng Zhenhua is obviously holding a lot more now.
Meng Jiao questioned Meng Zhenhua with his eyes.
Meng Zhenhua put it succinctly: "It's about business."
Oh.
Meng Jiao didn't ask any more questions.
After washing up, he glanced at the clock. It was time for lunch, and Meng Jiao was going to order takeaway from a private kitchen.
"Want to have dinner together?" Meng Jiao asked Meng Jinyan.
A trace of surprise flashed in Meng Jinyan's eyes, because of Meng Jiao's gentle attitude.He quickly realized that Meng Jiao should be polite to any guest who came to this house.
"Okay." Meng Jinyan agreed.
The table in the old house is a long table. At the moment the old man lives alone, entertaining Meng Jiao occasionally. The round table in the kitchen is small and cozy.
The food for the old man should be healthy. Meng Jiao ordered some vegetables, meat and some seafood strictly according to the video of healthy living.
The two of them didn't seem to finish their chat, and continued the previous topic at the dinner table. It was probably because Meng Jinyan happened to help Meng Zhenhua in the company, and this conversation happened.
Meng Jiao took the gloves and silently helped the old man peel the boiled shrimp.
People with slender fingers have a different feeling in everything they do. After peeling off the crystal shrimp shell a few times, after taking off the gloves, the tips of the nails are pink.
Meng Jinyan looked away inadvertently.
"Have you finished chatting? Let's eat." Meng Jiao said.
"It's not as good as the Meng family's, it's a bit shabby." Meng Zhenhua and Meng Jin said politely.
Meng Jinyan shook his head.
Meng Jiao moved the plate of shrimps in front of Meng Zhenhua: "Eat it, the fruit of my labor has to be exchanged for a cruise ship."
Meng Zhenhua didn't care about Meng Jiao's extortion. He regarded Meng Jinyan as a guest and explained Meng Jiao's behavior as protecting food: "I'm sorry, the two of us are used to eating, so we don't pay much attention to table manners."
Meng Jiao tilted his head: "It's okay, my cousin is allergic to shrimp, so I won't care."
Meng Jinyan's hand holding the chopsticks barely stopped for a moment.
He is like a domesticated dog, whenever Meng Jiao speaks, he will search for the meaning behind it.
For example, this time it should be thanks to him for helping Meng Zhenhua with a gentle attitude.
Meng Jinyan's Adam's apple moved slightly, but he tasted the sweetness from a simple sentence, and at the same time it was sour.
Under normal circumstances, Meng Jinyan is a person who is very measured and will not go crazy, and there is no reason to stimulate him now, so it is logical that he will say goodbye after eating, which will not affect the next activities of the grandfather and grandson.
He just answered a phone call before leaving, his face changed, and he walked away more quickly.
"He told me that he rejected the marriage contract with Meng Chu and offended Meng Yunjie, so he wanted my protection." Meng Zhenhua summed it up with Meng Jiao in the shortest language.
Meng Jiao nodded: "Do you believe him?"
Meng Zhenhua laughed: "Believe it or not, there are common interests, and that is to temporarily shake hands and make peace."
At any rate, Meng Zhenhua was also the last business champion, and Meng Jiao boasted without thinking, "My grandpa is awesome."
The rain was getting louder, Meng Jiao got up to close the window, but stopped in front of the window.
"What's wrong?" the old man was curious.
He stood up and stood side by side with Meng Jiao at the window.
Know the reason why Meng Jinyan left here in a hurry.
"The ghost is still there." Meng Zhenhua sighed.
Meng Chu actually chased here, and seemed to be holding an umbrella in the rain all the way, like Yiping who came to ask for money.
Meng Chu firmly grasped Meng Jinyan's wrist, and the water dripping from his body quickly soaked Meng Jinyan's sleeves. His dark gray suit was stained with water. He cried and said, "Brother, why did you do this?"
After Meng Yunjie returned home, he lost his temper and broke several vases at home. He startled him by cursing "unfamiliar dog" and "betrayal slut".After he asked the secretary and the housekeeper privately, he found out that Meng Zhenhua and Meng Jinyan had teamed up to divide part of Meng Yunjie's power in the company.
Meng Yunjie had worked hard for many years in order to gain power, thinking that he was out of Meng Zhenhua's control, but when he was denied again, it was undoubtedly a crazy blow to such a self-willed person.
Although he was afraid of his gentle and loving father becoming like this, Meng Yunjie was the best person to him, and he immediately wanted to ask Meng Jinyan for an explanation.
He always thought that Meng Jinyan and them were a family of three, and what Meng Jinyan did was clearly betrayal.
After finding out that Meng Jinyan was at Meng Zhenhua's house, he couldn't wait to find him, but the moment he saw Meng Jinyan, he looked at his still handsome and gentle brother, and even doubted the judgment of others.
Meng Jinyan gave him most of the umbrellas, as if he was a good brother; "Why don't you hold an umbrella?"
"I forgot to bring it, the house was a mess, so I ran out." Meng Chu was aggrieved, "Brother, they all said..."
"Everyone says I'm a white-eyed wolf, right?" Meng Jinyan added his words, too bluntly.
On the contrary, Meng Chu was timid because of this, and didn't know how to connect.
Meng Jinyan's face was calm: "They are right."
Meng Chu raised his eyes in shock, subconsciously immediately defending Meng Jinyan, or trying to convince himself: "Because Dad proposed my marriage contract with you, are you unhappy?"
Meng Jinyan said nothing, just staring at Mengchu quietly.
In fact, he grew up with Meng Chu since he was a child, and he knows Meng Chu's character very well, and he is very good at whitewashing peace to keep his life stable, free from time and worry-free.
Now Meng Chu is the same, begging: "Brother, you go home and admit your mistake to Dad, and I will explain the rest for you."
"But I don't want to go back." Meng Jinyan shook his head slightly, with a faint light in his eyes: "Who wants to be a beast if you can be a human?"
Meng Chu didn't hear the second half of the sentence, but understood Meng Jinyan's rejection.
How did things turn out like this?
The happy family he was so proud of fell apart overnight. His father and brother hated each other and became like enemies. He was caught in the middle and didn't think of making a choice. favorite lover.
Meng Chu's tone was suddenly full of hatred: "Is it because of Meng Jiao?"
It was all Meng Jiao. After Meng Jiao came back, everything changed.
"Xiao Chu." Meng Jinyan lowered his voice and squeezed Meng Chu very hard.
But Meng Chu seemed to have forgotten the pain, and stared blankly at Meng Jinyan's cold smile, as if he had been touched by Ni Lin: "Don't bother him, understand?"
Even maintaining the superficial peace is the result he achieved with great difficulty, and he does not allow anyone to destroy it.
Meng Chu opened his mouth slightly, and started to shed tears, as if meeting Meng Jinyan for the first time.
Meng Jinyan bowed his head, "Be obediently be the youngest son of the Meng family, my younger brother, and you will not be involved in anything."
Meng Chu took a few steps back in fear, and nodded in panic.
"Go home." Meng Jinyan took off his rain-splashed glasses, and looked back at the window of Meng Zhenhua's house. The curtains were closed tightly, as if no one had noticed their scene here.
……
Of course, it is impossible to hear the conversation between the two people downstairs. You can only see Meng Jinyan's back to them and Meng Chu's crying mouth. Meng Zhenhua feels tired and hot-eyed when he sees it, and motions for Meng Jiao to open the curtains. pull on.
He slowly walked back to the sofa: "Meng Yunjie should feel pain for a long time, and I won't bother you. I still have some small assets under my name. I know you are not interested in this aspect. When the time comes, I will sell them and convert them into cash flow." Here you go, toss and toss as you like."
To sum it up in one sentence: Money is here for you, spend whatever you want.
"The most handsome man in the world said the most handsome sentence." Meng Jiao smiled, "However, why do I feel that you have something to say, and you seem to hesitate?"
"Hmm..." Meng Zhenhua delayed for a few seconds, "I kind of want to go out and have fun."
"Then go." Meng Jiao was amused by him.
"It's not the ordinary way to play, it's to go to a farther place to play."
Meng Jiao's expression remained unchanged: "I know."
Originally, the old man liked to travel around the world freely. Part of the reason why he was delayed in City A for so long was because he was angry with Meng Yunjie, so he stayed to punish him and support Meng Jiao.Now that Meng Yunjie has no voice for the time being, life has stabilized, and the old man's heart can't rest anymore.
"But..." Meng Zhenhua was worried about what would happen if Meng Jiao was bullied once he left.
Don't look at him always saying that Meng Jiao is a little scourge, but he is actually like a persecution paranoid, worrying about the little scourge from time to time, what should I do if someone hurts me?
"Don't worry, I'm an adult, and you just helped me get rid of the annoying man and gave me a huge sum of money." Meng Jiao's eyes curved, "Shouldn't this reward myself for going out to play? Where are you going? ah?"
After scrutinizing and confirming that Meng Jiao was really happy for him to go out to relax, the old man said coyly, "I didn't think about it."
"Everywhere is too hot, or go to the southern hemisphere to escape the heat." Meng Jiao enthusiastically gave a suggestion.
Meng Zhenhua was gradually driven by Meng Jiao to forget all kinds of worries, and joined in the search for the destination.
In just two or three days, from confirming travel plans to buying air tickets, hotels, and then flying, a series of packing and running actions flowed smoothly.In the blink of an eye it was time to part.
Besides Meng Jiao, Chen Hongxin also put down the bricks on hand to see the old man off.
Meng Zhenhua regretted letting Chen Hongxin know the news unintentionally, and he was very troubled by the crying big man in front of him.
"Don't fucking cry, you're cursing me!" Meng Zhenhua cursed violently.
Chen Hongxin fell silent for a moment.
Who would have thought that when Meng Zhenhua first arrived, he was so frightened that he hid under the quilt and cried, and when Meng Zhenhua left, he was still crying.
It's just that the reasons for the two times are different. The former is because he is afraid of Meng Zhenhua, while the latter is because Meng Zhenhua left and he has no backing. He has experienced too much in this process, but he is still a middle-aged mentally retarded person who does not understand factional struggle.
"Stay honestly in your seat and do your job. No one can take your credit, and you will get a salary increase naturally." Meng Zhenhua pointed out with a headache.
Chen Hongxin nodded with tears in his eyes: "Dad, go out and take care of yourself."
After finally saying something human, Meng Zhenhua tiredly turned his gaze to Meng Jiao, who was watching the show with his head tilted and arms folded, and opened his arms with a cold face.
Meng Jiao burst out laughing.
His grandfather is really an old boss.
He stepped forward and leaned over to hug Meng Zhenhua: "It's fun, don't worry about me, I will send you messages every day."
Meng Zhenhua is the first and one of the few connections between Meng Jiao and this world, and he is the elder he cherishes in his heart.
No matter how disappointed Meng Zhenhua is now, Meng Yunjie and Meng Chu are his close blood ties.Thinking of the plot that Meng Chu wanted to have sex in the future, Meng Jiao didn't want the old man to be exhausted and fainted in the middle of the noisy farce, so it was a very good time for the old man to go abroad at this time.
The old man smelled the fresh orange scent floating on the young man, sweet and sour, and the youthful spirit, and his mood was soaring, but mixed with some reluctance.
"Goodbye." Meng Jiao smiled and pushed him.
Watching Meng Zhenhua enter the security checkpoint, only Meng Jiao and Chen Hongxin were left.
Chen Hongxin stood at attention: "I asked for leave during working hours and slipped out. I went back to work."
Seemingly embarrassed, he held back for a long time and said, "If you have any difficulties, you can ask me for help, maybe I can help."
After speaking, he felt shameless.
Meng Jiao accepted this gratitude: "Okay, then try not to come to me for help if you have any difficulties, that is the greatest help to me."
Chen Hongxin: woo woo woo
……
A little bit of movement in life can become a topic of conversation in everyone's spare time.
Everyone in the Meng family has heard about the fact that the old man of the Meng family stabbed his son painfully and left a large sum of money for his grandson to go abroad in style, but the focus is different.
The beneficiary, Meng Xiaojiao, currently has a considerable amount of money on hand.
If you have money, there will naturally be people who borrow money.
When Tu Ge approached Meng Jiao and hesitated for a long time, Meng Jiao took the initiative to ask, "Do you want to borrow money?"
"No, but it's almost the same. I want to build an entertainment company, and I want to get you in." Facing other people's painted songs, he can boast and fool around with sugar-coated bullets. There are also contacts in this area, but when it comes to Meng Jiao, Tu Ge blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.
"It's okay, you can do it, I'll just invest." Meng Jiao didn't change his mind after hearing this, "I don't really understand, I can only pay money, you have to work harder."
Continuing from the vision of his previous life, he invested a lot of money and got him a lot of rewards. Helping a Tu Ge and involving the entertainment field by the way is within the risk range he can accept.
Tu Ge was moved to tears: "The one who gives the money is the benefactor, okay? My benefactor's father!"
He clings to Meng Jiao all the way bragging about the coming of the God of Beauty, the arrival of the God of Wealth, and the reincarnation of angels, so sticky that Meng Jiao can't stop pushing his head away with his hands.
"Okay, stop bragging."
They are going to the third floor of the building mall, and now they have arrived at their destination.
Meng Jiao made Tu Ge stand up straight while pressing the elevator.
The elevator floor slowly descended and stopped in front of them.
After opening it, Gu Donglin and Qin Yu met their eyes in the elevator.
The expressions of the other two were stiff at the same time.
Tu Ge glanced at Meng Jiao's face, showing a provocative smile: "What a coincidence."
