Reborn Spirit Master

Chapter 185
Sapphire sat down with some guilty conscience, his upper body was straightened, his legs were close together, his hands were neatly placed on his knees, he calmed down, and first explained the official business he had done in Nandu.

Old man Lan listened to him calmly. This grandson grew up beside him. When he spoke, his appearance was different, which meant that his thoughts were different. The old man knew this very well.Seeing Sapphire's body language now, he guessed that he had something important to say tonight, and it made him very uneasy.

"Grandpa, the specific process is like this. Brother Chen let me have a look at the accounts of the Chinese merchants in the recent period, and also told me the plan for the next stage. I think there is no problem."

Old Man Lan nodded: "I see. Besides, Xu Chen didn't say anything about your sudden taking over of the Chinese merchant?"

"He didn't say anything, but just asked my uncle how he was doing, and whether the second uncle would go to Nandu soon."

"What did you say?"

"I said that my uncle's old injury has recurred and his condition is serious, but we have found a cure and will send him to the doctor soon. I said I didn't know the whereabouts of my second uncle, and my family didn't mention it."

Old Man Lan nodded approvingly: "That's a good answer. Your second uncle won't be in Nandu for the past two years, do you know why?"

Lan Yu thought for a moment and asked, "Is it because of the Chinese merchants?"

"You guessed right." Lan Jianlong nodded and said, "I have already decided to let you take over the affairs of the Chinese merchants, so let your second uncle pick them out of these affairs first, and he will have further development in the next stage. It's suitable for these things. Sapphire, do you know why I asked you to take over the business of the Chinese merchants?"

The old man's expression became serious, and he stopped calling Xiaoyu, and called his full name directly.

Lan Yu cheered up, looked straight into the old man's eyes, and said seriously: "Grandpa, is it because this is the fastest way for me to master power?"

Old Man Lan showed a gratified smile: "Lan Yu, you have really grown up! Later, I will let Lan take you to Meizhuang. You should also familiarize yourself with the matter of Lan Ying!"

Lan Yu stood up suddenly, put her feet together and said loudly: "Yes! Thank you, Grandpa!"

Lan Ying is the power cultivated by the old man Lan Jianlong secretly. Although there are not many people, they are all good players.

This mysterious power has always been in the hands of the head of the family. Now that the old man Lan Jianguo skipped the boss Lan Siqi and the second child Lan Sting, and let Lan Yu contact Lan Ying, this means that the old man may be passed on from generation to generation. .

"Lan Yu, do you know why grandpa let you get in touch with Lan Ying?" Grandpa Lan saw his grandson's excited expression, and decided to put him down.

"Grandpa please teach me." Sapphire stood upright, accepting the teaching with an open mind.

"Your father, Lansting, is more resourceful than decisive. What makes me most dissatisfied is that he is willing to submit to women!"

The first sentence of Old Master Lan made Lan Yu's face turn pale. He always knew that his grandfather was quite dissatisfied with his mother Qin Yilan's dominance, but he didn't expect to be so dissatisfied!He actually deprived his father of the opportunity to become the head of the family because he had a fierce wife!

Sapphire's mouth moved, wanting to say something, but he didn't say anything.The son doesn't say anything about his parents. Now it's Mr. Lan who is commenting and analyzing his son and daughter-in-law. No matter what thoughts he has in his heart, he can't say them out.

"With the talent of the boss and a capable daughter-in-law, there is no problem in taking over the position of Patriarch, but I am worried that one day after our two old men pass away, our Lan family will completely become a vassal of the Qin family!"

Lan Yu was shocked and looked at the old man speechless for a long time.He has always known that the Qin family is one of the five major families in China, and the Lan family is a new family, and they cannot be compared with them.Even the parents' marriage at the beginning was for the purpose of taking advantage of the Qin family's power.He didn't expect that besides cooperating, the old man was also wary of being annexed!

"As for the second son Lansting, although he is not as intelligent as the eldest, it is enough if he is a conservative patriarch." Old man Lan closed his eyes and smiled coldly: "But, he also married a man who is not worthy. Useful daughter-in-law! Although the second daughter-in-law is stable and honest, she has been doing things like a good wife and mother, but her background limits her!"

Lan Yu immediately thought of her second aunt, Fang Weihong. Fang Weihong came from a military family, and they belonged to the same family as Fang Yang. His father and brothers were all soldiers. What happened to this background?
"From a military family, she didn't learn the boldness of the military, and the military's single-mindedness is fully reflected in her!" Mr. Lan laughed mockingly, and continued: "Besides, she also learned from Mrs. Fang. Small-scale peasant thinking, short-sighted! If there is such a wife of the head of the family, it will be a matter of time before the Lan family declines in the future!"

Lan Yu's thoughts changed quickly. Mrs. Fang was the mother of the second aunt, and the second aunt was the last child of the old lady. She was raised sweetly since she was a child, and it is possible to follow her mother's temper.It's just that he never noticed these things, and always felt that his second aunt treated him pretty well.

The old man opened his eyes, stared at him like a torch and said, "Sapphire, now you understand how important a good woman is to a successful man? Remember, you must be careful when choosing your life partner in the future." !"

Lan Yu was conflicted and didn't speak for a while.He really wanted to take this opportunity to tell about Su Cangyue's affairs, but the old man's attitude tonight was very clear, those who did not choose a good wife could not take over the position of Patriarch.

Lan Yu's hesitant old man saw it, he waited for a while, then asked in a slow tone, "Xiao Yu, do you have something to tell grandpa?"

Lan Yu gritted her teeth, looked up at the old man and said seriously: "Grandpa, I already have someone to choose!"

The old man looked at him in surprise, and after a while he asked, "Is that the girl from last time, the one who went to Nandu? You think she is your life partner now?"

Seeing that the old man was not angry, Lan Yu became more courageous and nodded affirmatively.

"Nonsense!" The old man slammed the table: "How old is she? Do you know what she will look like when she grows up? Don't you think it's too hasty to decide that she is your life partner now?"

Lan Yu stood up straight, looked at the old man and said earnestly: "Grandpa, she is very good. When she grows up, she will only be better. You will definitely like her!" He paused and added, "Grandpa , most importantly, I like her very much!"

The old man put away the angry look on his face, looked at him and said, "Go on, tell me why this is the most important point?"

Lan Yu regained her composure, and said clearly and slowly: "Grandpa, everything is going well with family."

The old man nodded: "What else?"

Lan Yu gritted her teeth, and decided to go all out: "Grandpa, on your grandson's terms, looking at the ladies of the entire capital, as long as they are not from a family that is not compatible with our Lan family, if I want to marry anyone, I can do it as long as I put a little effort into it." arrive!"

"Among these ladies, I can marry a granddaughter-in-law who satisfies you, and I can also marry a daughter-in-law who is recognized by my mother and father. However, none of them are the daughter-in-law I recognize!"

"To be disrespectful, how many years can you treat the granddaughter-in-law you are satisfied with? Ten years? 15 years? 20 years? How many years can they treat the daughter-in-law that your parents are satisfied with? Three or 40 years at most But that's my daughter-in-law, the one I want to share the bed with for the rest of my life!"

"If it's someone I don't like, then I'll spend my whole life with her in different dreams? If that's the case, I'd rather not marry this daughter-in-law!"

As soon as Lan Yu's sonorous voice fell, the study was so quiet that a needle could be heard.

Old man Lan stared at him expressionlessly, his aura becoming more and more astonishing.

Sapphire stubbornly straightened her back, and looked at the old man persistently, only his clenched hands revealed the tension in his heart.

"Okay!" The old man patted the table again, but what he said made Lanyu ecstatic: "Lanyu, you really look like me the most! Back then, I had the aura of not giving up until I married your grandma, so I married you. After getting married, we have also come through together, including the many hardships that followed. This is how the Lan family is now, the Jingdu Lan family!"

"Thank you grandpa!"

Sapphire bowed excitedly, and the old man waved his hands and said, "Don't worry, I agree with your approach, there is a premise! That is, your Cangyue is as good as you said! If a few years later, wait until You have all grown up, and she has changed? Then, what are you going to do?"

"She has changed, and neither will I!" Sapphire said affirmatively, "I will let her know who is the best, most suitable, and the one who loves her the most!"

"What a boy, you have ambition!" Mr. Lan praised him, but still didn't let him go: "I mean, what are you going to do if she becomes no longer suitable to be the mistress of the Lan family?"

Lan Yu was silent for three seconds, then said in a deep voice, "Grandpa, you still have two grandchildren, one grandson."

If you don't succeed, you will become benevolent!
If he wanted to lose Su Cangyue because of the position of the head of the Lan family, he would rather not have this position!
Boom!

A thunderclap, accompanied by blinding lightning, sounded outside the window.

Su Cangyue was startled, looked up and looked out the window, wondering inwardly: It's almost winter, why is there still thunder and rain?And the thunder just now was too loud, it seems that the thundercloud is a little close!
She stood up, closed the window of the room, and closed the curtains, then turned around and sat down at the desk.

She couldn't sleep at night, so she ran to the study to read, and found that there were many interesting books here.

I heard that this place is set up to entertain foreign guests. Which foreign guests can understand these books on Chinese studies?
Apart from her, there is no one in the golden house tonight.Xu Chen arranged for four security personnel to be on duty in the middle of the night to be responsible for the security of the Golden House.In addition, there are Lao Li, the gatekeeper, and Sister Zhao, the housekeeper. They all live in the worker's room on the first floor, and they will come upstairs if there is nothing to do.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and someone was walking up the stairs.

Su Cangyue's senses swept out and saw Sister Zhao.Just when she was about to take back her perception, she found that Sister Zhao's expression was very strange: there was some guilt in her worry.

She frowned puzzled: what happened?
