Seventy cannon fodder is a ruthless man

Chapter 244 Unworthy
After the party, Mr. Meng insisted on going back to his old house, but it was already ten o'clock at night when he got home. In addition to the staff around him, Meng's elder son, eldest daughter-in-law and two granddaughters also came to pick him up. Everyone was very nervous. Like a big enemy, always be ready to deal with unexpected situations.

This is mainly because Mr. Meng has been sick and weak for a long time, and usually stays behind closed doors, unless the National Assembly needs to go out, and that is well prepared, doctors, entourage, and a large group of guards follow, and he usually goes to bed at [-]:[-] at night After resting, no one thought that he suddenly decided to come to Xu's mansion as a guest tonight, and the "party" of their old friends didn't end until nine o'clock at night.

They were afraid that the old man would not be able to hold on, but he seemed to be in a good state of mind, and on the way, he talked with his eldest son Meng Shaokang with great interest, smiling.

When he entered the house and saw his second son Meng Shaoan coming up to him, the old man straightened his face, his eyes were filled with anger, and his smile disappeared. He waved his hands in disgust and told Meng Shaoan to stay away. Stepping into the gate, looking from behind at this time, I realized that the old man was really tired, and he couldn't even lift his steps.

Meng Shaokang immediately called for a wheelchair, asked the old man to sit on it, and Meng's parents and daughter-in-law pushed him away.

Meng Shaokang didn't have a good look at Sun Shaoan either, and glared at him: "Who allowed you to come out? Are you trying to piss your father off?"

Meng Shaoan narrowed his eyes: "This isn't the old era. It's still an old feudal system, and people are going to be imprisoned? You have to have a meal and get some fresh air, right?"

"There is such a big courtyard at home, and the garden and woods are not enough for you to breathe? If you have to run out of the gate, don't you know it yourself? You are now a sick person, seriously ill!"

"I'm not sick, it's not fair for you to treat me like this!"

"What fairness do you want?"

"In any case, I cannot be deprived of the right to...serve the people."

Meng Shaokang has always had a straight face and rarely smiled, so he couldn't help but sneer at this time: "You want to serve the people? It's a pity that you are no longer worthy. I have been in H province for many years, my family trusts you, and I have never suspected anything. This time I just checked a little Check, so many problems were found—it’s really thanks to the appearance of that child that we discovered your hidden danger. Father is right, you must terminate your official career, otherwise sooner or later you will attract disaster and defeat the entire Meng family!"

Meng Shaoan: "If you want to commit a crime, there is no excuse! Who didn't make one or two mistakes when they were young? Because of that child, you say that I have a lack of personal morality, prejudice against me, and completely deny me. I don't accept it! Work hard and make what kind of achievements, everyone can see it!"

"Hmph, you don't cry when you see the coffin, I don't have time to argue with you now, you can reserve your opinion for now, just wait."

After Meng Shaokang finished speaking, he strode to catch up with the old man's wheelchair. Meng Shaoan paused, then turned around and followed closely.

According to old man Meng's instructions, the wheelchair was pushed directly to the house where he lived. When entering the inner room, the old man raised his hand to signal, and the wheelchair was handed over to the staff. Meng's parents-in-law and several younger generations stopped, and Meng Shaokang went straight in. Meng Shaoan wanted to follow He went in, but was stopped, so he could only stand outside with the juniors, he didn't say anything, but his expression was obscure.

After scrubbing with hot water and changing into pajamas, the old man lay on the bed, and the staff gave him various pills and liquid medicines in order, and then he went out, and gently closed the door. Only Meng Shaokang and the old man were left in the room. two people.

The old man opened his eyes, which were tightly closed because he was struggling to swallow the pills, and looked at Meng Shaokang. Meng Shaokang nodded, walked to the Duobao Pavilion by the wall, reached out his hand and touched something, and heard a slight sound embedded in the wall. The Duobao Pavilion moved slowly, and a secret door appeared. Meng Shaokang walked in and came out after a while, holding a golden gourd in his hand. People who don't know the truth saw that the gourd was hidden in the dark room like a treasure, and they must have Thought it was made of real gold.

Actually no, if Meng Tao was there, she would recognize that it was a gourd that grew in her space, and it would naturally turn golden when the shell was ripe. She filled two golden gourds with wine and gave them to Shen Yu and Meng Zhehan as gifts. Of course, Shen Yu's gourd was in the Shen family, while Meng Zhehan's was in the hands of Mr. Meng.

Meng Zhehan didn't think about it either, he cherished the gift from sister Peach Blossom very much, not to mention that it was not an extraordinary product, but a rare treasure, but as the eldest grandson, he couldn't bear to watch his grandfather suffer from illness, he was not Shen Yu, he could get peach blossoms at any time The top-quality ingredients given by his sister, especially when he learned that Sister Taohua's tragic life was because of his second uncle, he had no face to accept Sister Taohua's kindness.

Knowing that the pills given by Sister Taohua to Liu Yongsheng, Grandpa Xu and other old people can make his grandfather say goodbye to his illness easily, but he dare not make the request. At home, the Meng family, young and old, owed Sister Taohua, Guan Xiuzhi, and Meng Shengli's family, so how could they have the nerve to ask Sister Taohua for medicine?

So Meng Zhehan didn't speak.

But when it was warm and cold, his grandfather was critically ill, and his father got angry on the phone. Meng Zhehan couldn't bear the pain of his grandfather, so he could only give up his golden gourd and send it back to the capital to his grandfather.

His intention was to saw off the golden gourd bit by bit, grind it into powder and take it, which should be able to cure and eliminate grandfather's illness and restore health.

However, after my grandfather got the golden gourd, he discovered its magic: holding it can relieve pain. If you sip a little wine from the gourd, you will immediately feel the blood flow, the body's muscles and bones will be stretched and strong, and you can get huge energy in a short time .

The energy will eventually be consumed slowly. Naturally, you can't just drink the wine in the gourd when you don't need it. This is a waste.

The golden gourd was even more immobile, and it would disappear after eating it. Mr. Meng couldn't bear it.

It has such a pronounced analgesic effect that it is enough.

At this moment, Mr. Meng held the golden gourd in his arms, heaved a long sigh of relief, the pain in his body gradually subsided, and he relaxed and lay on the pillow peacefully. He was really tired today, but it was worth it. When he closed his eyes and was about to fall asleep, he asked casually : "What news do you have today?"

Meng Shaokang covered the old man with the quilt, and replied softly: "Go to sleep, we will talk about it tomorrow morning."

"Is my eldest grandson calling back?"

"……Correct."

"Speak."

"It is said that Shen Yu returned safely from Province Y to the provincial capital of Province D with the peach blossoms. My sister gave my brother a bag of special products from Province Y, and I will send some to the capital tomorrow."

Mr. Meng recalled what Mrs. Xu had said in the Xu Mansion, and nodded his head in relief: "Thanks to Zhehan, that child is heartbroken. We can't recognize her now, but with this brother-sister friendship, she won't be able to Hatred... that's all, we can look at her and know that she is our child, that's enough."

"Yes."
