Chapter 23
It's not that the old man was not disappointed with Zhang Mian, but no matter how great the disappointment was, it turned into regret. He was past the age to teach Zhang Mian a lesson, and now that half of his body was buried in the soil, only his head was left on top, so he had to do it for him. Make some plans.
There was a slight pause in the movement of pulling Zhang Mian's hand, and the old man looked at him and said, "This is our debt, and what is owed must be paid back."
"What...debt?" In fact, as long as you get close to the old man, you can smell a very strong 'old man', and Zhang Mian sniffed as if he didn't smell it.
"How did Chu Mu treat you?" the old man asked suddenly.
Zhang Mian opened his mouth and said, "Okay, he treats me well." He took good care of eating, drinking, and sleeping. Then he thought that the debt the old man said might have something to do with Chu Mu. He really couldn't figure it out. He tentatively asked: "We What does the family owe Chu Mu?"
"You're not that stupid." I wanted to laugh but I didn't expect to cough out in the end. The old man touched Zhang Mian's face and hands, which were clean without any blemishes, and he could tell what kind of living environment he was in just by touching it.
"Human life." Not wanting to bring this matter into the ground, the old man saw his grandson's shocked face and hurriedly stopped his next words.
"Your father, your uncle, and Chu Mu's father went to sea to do business back then. Chu Mu's father was the leader who lost all the money for the first time. He refused to admit defeat and borrowed usury to pay back the money first. The rest continued to do business. Back then We are in a very delicate era, the technology is underdeveloped and the country lacks an Internet era. Chu Mu’s father and your father are optimistic about this area. Your father took out all the money and told him to take a gamble. Your uncle is afraid of losing again. I went back, and after I went back, I was with Chu Mu’s mother...Chu Mu had already remembered at that time, and it was the negligence of me, an old man, that made your uncle do something wrong."
Zhang Mian knew that there must be something wrong with Chu Mu, who would have thought it would be like this.
"Chu Mu's father died in prison. Your father inherited the company as a matter of course. Your father persuaded your uncle to surrender. Your uncle was greedy for money and refused to go. When I arrived, they were fighting. Your father beat your uncle to death. I got in the car and went to the Public Security Bureau, but why did this car get into an accident! Your father died in the driver's seat on the spot, and your uncle was lying in the hospital for more than half a year."
"He's a murderer!" Zhang Mian shook off the old man's hand vigorously, trembling with anger.
"Chu Mu's father was faked to murder Chu Mu's mother. There was nothing that could not be solved by money. Our family owed Chu Mu a life. Xiao Mian, don't blame grandpa. If your uncle doesn't live up to it, he will be my last one." I have a son." Busy explaining, the old man's face was forced to blush.It's not that he didn't think about righteousness and killing relatives, but Zhang Tianguo knelt down and begged him. He brought up his son himself. When he was young, his wife ran away because she thought the family was poor and gave birth to a child. How difficult it is for a man to drag two children.
"I'm confused."
"Why did you tell me?" Zhang Mian's eyes were red, and the guilt was transmitted to him, making him uncomfortable.
"I'll tell you everything you need to know."
"Grandpa..." Zhang Mian lowered his head and couldn't help choking up sobs. A pile of shit ruined a jar of soy sauce. This is roughly the mood. Now seeing Zhang Tianguo, he can't wait to go up and get cramps.
"Chu Mu's child is like his father, but you are like no one, like a girl." The old man has seen countless people with sharp eyesight, and every time he sees his grandson, his worries will inevitably increase. The little grandson is too soft to do anything. , "You follow your brother well, don't tell him about the contract."
"Oh."
Mr. Zhang glanced at the door, pushed Zhang Mian and said, "Go out, I'm tired."
Zhang Mian went out dejectedly and didn't notice anyone outside. The old man packed up his things and waited for him to come in.
When Chu Mu opened the door and came to see it, the old man was looking at him, and he stepped forward respectfully: "Grandpa."
There was no intimacy at all, and the old man didn't mind. He shook his hands and asked him to sit down: "I heard that you removed your Uncle Wang from the company."
Chu Mu sneered: "We don't need people who eat from bowls and look at pots. Times have changed, and people who just want to eat and don't want to do things don't need to stay."
"How much have you heard?"
"When you were talking about my family affairs."
The old man raised his hand and put it down helplessly, his eyes were not as energetic as before, "I know you are looking into what happened back then."
"I can't do anything after finding out." Chu Mu said coldly.
The old man thought to himself, what will you do when I die, "All the old people in the company are gone, Chu Mu, I can't fight you." The sum of their shares has already made him, the old man, shrank aside, approaching Death doesn't care much about those imaginary things.
"I ask myself that I am not mean to you, and Xiao Mian has nothing to do to you." Speaking of this, the old man closed his eyes tiredly, "Repay what our family owes you, and I am only a grandson, so please hold your hand high. "
Chu Mu's face changed slightly, and he suddenly wanted to laugh: "Grandpa, what do you mean, I always treat Xiao Mian as my own brother."
"I used to think that Xiao Mian finally found a partner and wouldn't be lonely anymore. He had a bad temper since he was a child. After being with you, he will laugh and cry a lot. I brought his favorite chocolate home during the Chinese New Year. But he said he didn't like it anymore, and he didn't like what his brother didn't like. It didn't take long for him to stop liking what he liked before. Teach him to do his homework, he said that his brother taught him, even if he didn't do his homework, you wouldn't say anything , There are many more things, do you want me to tell you one by one." The old man opened his eyes and looked at the man.
Without the slightest pressure, Chu Mu slowly raised his head and smiled: "Children's childhood should be happy and innocent. You love the house and the crow. Grandpa, you don't know that."
"I want to take Xiao Mian away. On the day I sent him abroad, someone called and said that the child was missing. When he found it at the station, he didn't want anyone. He just threw himself into your arms and cried. Chu Mu, I'm getting old." With an old face, she was about to kneel down and beg him.
"When I wanted to rein in the precipice, you had emptied my power. Xiao Mian has been brought up by you. The fault is that we are not him!"
Chu Mu pondered for a few seconds, then smiled: "You are worrying too much. I promised you to take good care of Xiao Mian before. You picked me up from the orphanage. I, Chu Mu, am not the one to avenge my kindness. You can do that." rest assured."
"I know you miss your father, I will give you what you want in a few days." The old man waved his hand wearily.
The person in front of him was really old, Chu Mu stood up and bowed, walked to the door, stopped, turned his head and said: "It's not that he grew up beside me without feelings, Xiao Mian is the way I like, old man, you don't have to always It's worry."
Likes and habits are exactly the same as myself, how can such a person not like it, and how can he have the heart to destroy it.
Everyone was driven away, Mr. Zhang lay on the bed panting, patted the edge of the bed and repeated: "It's all evil."
The debts owed must always be repaid, and no one can escape.
……
Sun Shu might have stopped Zhang Mian from outside, but now he was leaning against the car window and looking out, his eyes glazed over.
Chu Mu was a little surprised that the old man would take the initiative to talk about what happened back then, and he was also surprised by Zhang Mian's attitude, that all these years were not in vain.
"Chu Mu!" An angry voice said.
Zhang Tianguo blushed with anger, threw a few pieces of paper into the man's arms, pointed at his nose and cursed: "How dare you remove my authority in the branch!"
Sun Shu got out of the car and pushed him away: "Show me some respect."
Chu Mu touched the few pieces of paper and seemed to be reminiscing. They were all decided under his preference and were not exciting. He pushed Sun Shu and raised his chin slightly: "I will do it myself."
"My father is not dead yet, you start to attack me, no matter what I say, I can be regarded as your stepdad, Zhang Mian's uncle, you are too ungrateful!!"
"Letting you eat and drink for nearly 20 years is already my face for the old man." Chu Mu said suddenly, even if Zhang Tianguo didn't admit it, there is no way to reverse the current situation, "Move public funds to gamble, and pretend to be a tiger outside, if the old man really takes the company It’s not easy for Mrs. Zhang to get to the present step by step if I give it to you.”
"You boy! My dad raised you so much, and you force people away like this!" Everyone said that Chu Mu couldn't stay, but the old man was foolish enough to raise him, a white-eyed wolf who has been raising him for so many years!
"I am your elder, you just talk to me like this!"
"If you have the ability, tell the old man to let you resume your power. I guess he doesn't even want to see you now."
That's true. Zhang Tianguo is so angry that he can't see the old man outside the door. Keeping him alive may be the greatest patience of the old man. Not only is Chu Mu's father's life on his body, the old man also doubts Zhang Mian The cause of his father's death.
Zhang Tianguo didn't dare to act recklessly anymore, he had to think carefully about every step he took, "You have the guts." After speaking, he turned and strode away.
He crumpled the paper into a ball and threw it into the trash can. When Chu Mu got into the car, he saw Zhang Mian huddled in a corner of the car. With a wave of his hand, he grabbed the hair that blocked his eyes and asked in a low voice, "What are you afraid of?"
The amount of information that I know today is too much, Zhang Mian has not been relieved: "I am afraid of uncle, do you really let him go?"
"No, it's just that the position is not as high as before. After all, it's Grandpa's son who wants to give him some face." It's Zhang Tianguo who doesn't know how to be satisfied, so don't blame him for being too ruthless.
As if a big storm was coming, Zhang Mian sensitively sensed something was wrong, but he also knew that he didn't want to get involved. After fear and helplessness, he only dared to hide in the room and digest it alone. Uncle turned out to be a murderer. The old man said He didn't say in general how Chu Mu's father entered the prison and how he died in the prison. Now guessing, it probably has something to do with his uncle.
His mother was humiliated by Zhang Tianguo again. What kind of feeling should that feel like? Zhang Mian thought for a long time and felt that his life was too comfortable to understand. Never experienced it.
Doesn't Chu Mu grit his teeth every time he sees Zhang Tianguo?
Zhang Mian threw off the quilt and couldn't lie down anymore. He put on his pajamas and quietly opened the door of the study. Chu Mu leaned on the sofa as if resting. Incomprehensible contract.
The old man can't be flexible, so a few years ago the Zhang family almost declared bankruptcy. It was Chu Mu who came to power and saved everyone. Since then, he has been the god in his heart. No one in the world is as good as his brother. , But will this awesome brother hate them?
Hate Zhang Tianguo, but also hate everyone in this family?
Startled by the idea, Zhang Mian retorted that it shouldn't be true, Chu Mu treated him like his own son.
Chu Mu curled his lips and sat on the sofa. There was a deep movement on the sofa. Chu Mu opened his eyes suddenly in shock, saw Zhang Mian and let down his guard again, "Why haven't you slept yet?" His voice was hoarse and he hadn't woken up. In the past, she clumsily massaged the corners of the man's eyes, looked at the dark circles under his eyes and asked, "Why haven't you slept yet?"
"Are you worried about me?" He grabbed Zhang Mian's waist and hugged him, forming the appearance of Zhang Mian straddling his lap.
