When Mrs. Xiao was dreaming about living in a large villa in Tangchen, Xiao Changqian rubbed her hands and said with a long sigh: "Mom, I plan to send someone to Yanjing in the near future to invite people from Dong Ruolin's family to come over. Be a guest, and then tell them in a subtle way, hoping that they will betroth Dong Ruolin to Hai Long, what do you mean?"
"Dong family..." Old Mrs. Xiao sighed and said, "Last time Hailong left Dong Ruolin behind and ran away. I guess Dong Ruolin had a lot of dissatisfaction with him!"
Xiao Changqian said: "I think this little thing is innocuous. The family itself is a mutual help. What everyone values is the future development prospects. Although our Xiao family is not as good as the Dong family, we have obtained The cooperation between the Dihao Group and the Emgrand Group has great potential in the future, and maybe the Dong family will agree to this marriage."
Mrs. Xiao thought for a moment, nodded and said, "In this case, you can try to invite the Dong family and see if they are interested in visiting Jinling."
"Okay!" Xiao Changqian said hurriedly: "Mom, the Dong family is a big family. If we don't have a decent villa and we lose face in front of the Dong family, that won't be possible."
As he said that, he added: "If we can get the villa of Tomson's first grade from Ye Chen, then the Dong family will come as guests, and when they see the villa of Tomson's first grade, they will also take a high look at our Xiao family, what do you think? Woolen cloth?"
Mrs. Xiao nodded.
People rely on clothes, and Buddha relies on gold. Living in a villa worth more than RMB 100 million will naturally greatly improve the family's reputation.
In addition, she had been coveting Ye Chen's first-grade Tomson villa in her heart, so this was just an opportunity to make a move.
So she said majestically: "Call your brother and his family to the old house tomorrow! I will tell them personally!"
Xiao Hailong brother and sister looked at each other, secretly happy in their hearts.
Now Xiao Changkun's family relies on the company for their livelihood, and Mrs. Xiao is the person in charge of the family. As long as the old lady speaks, what foothold does Xiao Changkun's family have?
The old lady asked him to hand over the villa, would he dare to say no?
Given the old lady's preference for her own home, as long as she gets this villa from Ye Chen, it will be her own home in the future!
...
Early the next morning, Xiao Changkun led his daughter and son-in-law and hurried to the Xiao family's old residence.
Xiao Churan opened the car door and asked, "Dad, grandma called you specifically to ask you to come over. Didn't she say there was something important?"
"We'll talk after we go." Xiao Changkun said, "And your uncle Xiao Changqian will also come."
Ye Chen frowned, looking at this battle, it didn't seem like there was anything good going on.
Xiao Churan said angrily: "What else can happen? I guess it must be something related to the villa."
"Marven will explain it to your grandma later on about the villa."
Xiao Changkun didn't think much and quickly got into the car, urging Ye Chen to drive.
At half past nine, the car drove to the door of the Xiao family's old house.
The family walked into the main room. Ye Chen glanced at it and frowned slightly.
I saw Mrs. Xiao sitting on the imperial chair in the middle, Xiao Changqian standing next to her, and brother and sister Xiao Hailong standing on the other side.
In addition to them, there were several elder relatives of the Xiao family sitting on both sides of the main room, and several juniors of the Xiao family stood on both sides, looking at them eagerly.
Isn't it that such a trivial matter as traveling has turned into a three-court trial?
As his name suggests, Xiao Changkun is usually very honest and can't beat a fart with three sticks.
Now when he saw this posture, he shrunk half of his head, called out "Mom" tremblingly, and then called "Brother" with a smile.
Xiao Changqian seemed not to hear and ignored him.
Mrs. Xiao nodded lightly.
Xiao Changkun asked tentatively: "Mom, why did you come to see me today?"
"Let me ask you, what's going on with Tomson Yipin's villa?" Mrs. Xiao asked coldly.
Xiao Changkun said quickly: "That villa was given to Ye Chen by Mr. Wang, and Ye Chen had done Feng Shui for him before."
"Look at Feng Shui?" Xiao Hailong sneered and said in a strange way: "If you look at Feng Shui, you can see a mansion. All of us in the Xiao family will stop working and become swindlers to defraud money!"
There was a low sneer in the hall.
Listening to the ridicule of his relatives, Xiao Changkun felt embarrassed and could only laugh.
However, Xiao Chang laughed twice and smoothed things over in a pleasant manner: "Mom, no matter what happens to Ye Chen, Mr. Wang has already explained that it is indeed a thank you gift to him. This matter can be understood clearly, second brother There’s no need to explain anymore.”
Xiao Changkun glanced at his elder brother gratefully, feeling a little flattered.
Normally, his eldest brother would not look at me at all, but today he actually spoke for him, which was unprecedented!
Xiao Changqian smiled slightly, turned around and said to Mrs. Xiao: "Mom, you don't need to ask where the villa came from. Anyway, Mr. Wang himself said that it was for Ye Chen, so we have nothing to worry about."
"Yes." Mrs. Xiao nodded and said to Xiao Changkun: "Chang Kun, your eldest brother wants to marry the Dong family and let Hai Long marry Dong Ruolin of the Dong family. What do you think about this matter?"
"This is a good thing." Xiao Changkun said with a smile: "The Dong family is a famous family in the capital. If we can marry the Dong family, it will also be a help to our Xiao family."
"A good thing is a good thing," Mrs. Xiao sighed: "But our family is really far behind compared to the Dong family. Even if your eldest brother has this intention, he doesn't have the nerve to talk to the Dong family. .”
Xiao Changkun nodded seriously and said honestly: "Mom, to be honest, I think Dong Ruolin should look down on Hailong."
Xiao Hailong's expression was extremely ugly, and he blurted out: "Second uncle, what do you mean by this?"
Only then did Xiao Changkun realize that he had said the wrong thing and hurriedly changed his words: "Oh, that's not what I meant. What I wanted to say is that compared to the Dong family, our Xiao family is really far behind."
Mrs. Xiao said calmly: "People rely on their clothes, and Buddhas rely on their gold clothing. If we live in the best villa in Jinling, the Dong family will have to take a high look at us when they come!"
Xiao Changkun asked in surprise: "Mom, are you going to change your house?"
Mrs. Xiao said calmly: "I want to change it to something better, but unfortunately I don't have that much money."
When Xiao Changkun heard this, he hurriedly said: "If Mom needs money, I still have millions here."
Old Mrs. Xiao snorted coldly: "A villa can easily cost tens of millions or hundreds of millions. What is one million enough for?"
As she spoke, she deliberately changed the subject and said, "Chang Kun, doesn't your family have a ready-made villa in Tomson Yipin?"
"Yes." Xiao Changkun didn't know why and said blankly: "What's wrong?"
"What's wrong?" Old Mrs. Xiao said with an unhappy look on her face: "I am your mother, how can you bear to see me living in this old house for so many years? Now that you have a first-class villa by Tomson, shouldn't you use it? Please respect me as a mother, do you want me to move in first?"
