Chapter 162 It's not surprising that many people are polite! Chai Rong was stunned, "Today is not a good day. Isn't my eldest brother's death anniversary tomorrow?"
Chai Sitian put her hands on her hips, "You know you are still laughing at this?"
Chai Rong smiled bitterly, "Yes, yes, I was wrong!"
Seeing that Chai Rong had a good attitude in admitting his mistake, Chai Sitian didn't hold on to him.
"Where's Dad?"
"In the main hall, you'd better not bother him now." Chai Sitian said.
Chai Rong knew in his heart that at this time every year, his father would be sad for a few days.
He sighed, a little upset, and the original joy of making friends with Qin Mo also faded a lot, "I have something to report to daddy!"
"What can happen to you?" Chai Sitian looked at him in confusion, then frowned, "Is the Hou family causing trouble for you again?"
"No." Chai Rong shook his head, "Oh, it's a good thing anyway. I'm going to find dad first!"
Seeing that Chai Rong didn't tell her, Chai Sitian curled her lips and looked at the patio, thinking of what her father had just said.
Is she getting married?
But if she gets married, who will take care of her father and second brother? If possible, she would really rather not marry for the rest of her life. Even if she wanted to marry, she would marry someone who could protect the Chai family.
But such a person would never marry her.
How to do? For the first time, she became confused.
At this time, Chai Rong came to the main hall and said, "Dad, I'm back!"
Seeing Chai Rong, Chai Shao cheered up and said, "If you don't have anything to do, go ahead and leave me alone!"
"Dad, you can't resurrect the dead. My eldest brother has been gone for three years. If he sees you like this, he will definitely be sad!"
Chai Rong knew very well how big a blow his eldest brother's death had to his father. Since then, his father's condition has deteriorated day by day.
"You're still trying to discipline me!" Chai Shao snorted and took a sip of his wine.
Chai Rong sighed and said to him: "Today, the King of Yue and Qin Mo arrived at the small villa on the outskirts of our home!"
"Where are they going and what are they doing?" Chai Shao put down his wine glass and asked.
"I've taken a fancy to our small villa and want to buy it!" Chai Rong said.
A trace of self-mockery flashed in Chai Shao's eyes, "I know this is the case, forget it, just take it if they want it, give it to them!"
"That's what I said at first, but Qin Mo questioned and refused. He wanted to buy it with a lot of money, but his son didn't dare to buy it. Qin Mo asked me to use the small villa to become a shareholder, and asked me to do business with the King of Yue. He also said that he would take me to play with him. At noon tomorrow, let me go to Haidilao for dinner and let Cheng Dabao and others accept me!" At this point, Chai Rong was a little excited.
Chai Shao was also extremely surprised, but then he frowned deeply, "You show your courtesy for nothing, and you are either a traitor or a thief. Who do you think you are? Why should he want to do business with you?
The King of Yue is the prince, and Qin Mo is the consort of the eldest princess, the legitimate son of the Duke of Qin. He is deeply loved by the emperor and the queen. A few days ago, Dong Shou made great achievements and even sealed the county boy of Dingyuan County. He has a bright future and will definitely do so in the future. It is the mainstay of Daqian.
Have you ever wondered why they are close to you? "
"Dad, Qin Mo wants to set up a breeding farm. He said that our small villa is in a good location with mountains and water, and behind the breeding farm is..." Chai Rong pointed to the top of his head! Chai Shao understood instantly and took a breath, "You mean, the current Holy Emperor? No, this is impossible. How can he do business?"
Chai Rong smiled bitterly and said: "Qin Mo said this himself, and the King of Yue did not refute it!"
Chai Shao woke up instantly, stood up, and kept walking around the hall, his mind was full of twists and turns.
Li Shilong seemed to like him, but in fact he was using him to set an example and appease the survivors of the previous dynasty.
At the same time, he also showed the world his broad mind, Li Shilong.
They even married the eldest princess into their family.
But so what?
The Chai family has always been on the fringes of the imperial court. Although he is qualified to go to court, he always stays at home on the grounds that he is old, frail and mentally all, except for the title of Duke, the others are all casual official positions with titles but no power.
Not to mention the Duke, even the seventh-rank Zhima officials dared not to take them seriously.
Among them, the Hou family is the most important.
Hou Gennian was a general of the Zhou Dynasty at that time, but later he abandoned the Zhou Dynasty and joined the Qian dynasty, and he was ruthless in killing his colleagues.
Because of this, he gained Li Shilong's trust.
After all these years, thanks to his honesty, if Hou Gennian found out about him, he would probably become the first prince to be killed in Daqian.
Today, Li Yue and Qin Mo came to the door and asked Chai Rong to become a shareholder on the pretext of acquiring the villa.
I also want to be friends with Chai Rong.
He really can't understand.
In the end, he could only think that this matter must have been authorized by someone, such as His Majesty!
Chai Shao sighed. Li Shilong was not a narrow-minded emperor, nor did he kill the donkey. He rarely went to court, and Li Shilong did not blame him. Instead, he sent supplements every now and then.
The reason why he was marginalized was that he wanted to protect himself wisely. On the other hand, he did not want to be used by Li Shilong.
The Da Zhou label on his body was too thick and couldn't be washed off at all.
"Did you sign the contract?"
"Signed, it has the seals and fingerprints of Qin Mo and King Yue on it!" Chai Rong carefully took out the contract from his arms.
Chai Shao looked at it seriously, and then said: "I'll go tomorrow and tear up this contract, do you understand?"
"Father, why?"
"It's OK for them to want our things, but it's not OK for us to want other people's things!"
Chai Shao said seriously: "Neither the King of Yue nor Qin Mo can be offended by us. You will not be wrong if you listen to me. If they are willing to take you, just listen more, do more and talk less. If I give it to you, you can take it." If I don’t give it to you, don’t ask.
But you have to remember, never cause trouble. There are some things they can do but you can't do. Do you understand? "
Chai Rong smiled bitterly and nodded, and then Chai Shao said something that made his eyes red, "Dad, you are the only son. If the white-haired man gives the black-haired man a gift, if it happens again, dad will not be able to survive!" "
Chai Rong's eyes suddenly turned red, and he knelt on the ground, "Dad, the child will definitely protect himself!"
He is probably the most miserable prince of the country. Ever since he can remember, the first thing he has learned is to protect himself and behave with his tail between his legs.
In the past ten years, he has never held his head high and held his chest high.
Chai Shao originally wanted to persuade Chai Rong to find a suitable opportunity to quit, but seeing the hopeful look on his face, he held back.
It was too cruel for him.
After all these years, I still don’t have a friend who can talk or drink.
It's his fault, accumulating descendants.
"Go on, go to the banquet tomorrow, dress decently, and choose some gifts from the family treasury to give them as greeting gifts. It's not weird if there are many people. Do you understand?"
"Yes, my child understands!"
Chai Shao couldn't help being happy, but then he hesitated, "But tomorrow is the death anniversary of my eldest brother."
"Go, your sister-in-law will be back tomorrow!"
