"Knock, knock." Tang Lingqiu knocked lightly.

"Come in."

Tang Lingqiu pushed open the door and entered the study. On the wall, there was a silver-hook iron painting with a majestic aura written by the owner of the study, it was the old man Tang Zepinng who sat on the chair. His hair was already half white, but he still maintained his imposing manner.

The old man stood up and walked to the sofa at the side, he reached out to ask Tang Lingqiu to come sit with him. Tang Zepinng was much more tolerant towards this grandson, perhaps he pitied him for losing his mother when he was young, but his stepmother was also a little unclear. In his early years, he was too busy working and neglected this grandson of his, so he knew how shallow the eyes of this second daughter-in-law were.

"Grandfather." Tang Lingqiu sat beside Tang Zepinng in a proper manner.

"Your grandfather is all right." Twenty years ago, they also wanted to go further and achieve a marriage between two families. Although Tang Lingqiu's mother was no longer present, but with him as the link, if Tang Family owed this junior who did not have his own mother to protect him, then the Tang and Xie Families would no longer be related, alright? Instead, it was very possible that they would become enemies.

No matter if it was Old Master Xie or Xie Qingrong's father, they both loved and cared for Tang Lingqiu's mother very much. They did not want the kidnapping incident that happened 21 years ago to cause her to die young, causing Tang Lingqiu to lose her mother at such a young age, so they placed great importance on Tang Lingqiu. If Tang Family really dared to owe this junior, then Xie Family would most likely do something to make Tang Lingqiu change his surname to Xie.

"Grandfather was still alright. He even asked me to send a message to grandpa to come over and play chess with him when he had time." Tang Lingqiu's expression also eased up.

Tang Zepinng was relieved: "This old guy is such a shitty chess player. Other than me, there are a few others who can handle him. We are already old and we won't be able to hold on for many more years. In the future, we will have to rely on your young generation, and our Xie Family will have your cousin Qingrong, and our Tang Family will have your big brother. As long as there are no big mistakes, we can always walk down the road steadily, and only a child like you won't want to walk the political path. "

However, Wu Tie's family was focused on Qiu, afraid that Qiu would steal her own son's resources and hinder her son's future. If it wasn't for the fact that everyone was sensible and the eldest grandson had the demeanor of an elder brother who always took care of his younger brothers, this grandson of his would have already been pushed out of his mind by that shallow person. Maybe he really would have changed his surname to Xie, and he knew that Old Man Xie wouldn't want his grandson to become his biological grandson.

"Grandfather, didn't you also say that you have a big brother in Tang Family? Big brother is much more stable than the other little brothers. Don't worry, grandfather, I will definitely support big brother." Tang Lingqiu knew what his grandfather was worried about and promised. He was the descendant of Tang Family, so when he called Second Young Master Tang while he was walking outside, he naturally would not forget about Tang Family and throw it to the side.

Among the Tang Family juniors, the most outstanding were Xiao Yu and the child. Although the child did not reveal himself normally, Old Master Tang had people investigate a little, that child actually relied on his own ability to save up a lot of capital, which allowed him to be at ease in fighting in the outside world. With the support of his financial resources, the eldest son and Tang Family were able to stay in an invincible position.

"What did Old Xie say about this matter?" It had been a long time since they last fought, and their methods were getting more and more despicable. This was something that the other families in B City could not tolerate, because if everyone learned this method and killed their opponent to the point of being crippled or even killed by any means, who would still dare to come out of B City or leave B City to develop their skills, who could guarantee that there would always be someone to protect them.

The old man had always believed in schemes, so it didn't matter whether he won or lost. If he lost this time, he could come again, but if he lost his life, he wouldn't have the chance to do it again.

"Grandfather said that in two days, he will ask Grandfather and a few other elders to have a cup of tea with him." Tang Lingqiu conveyed his grandfather's meaning.

Old Master Tang patted the handrail and smiled, "Alright, we old guys should also go out for a walk. I'll give Old Xie a call and set a time to come."

It was only after the grandfather and grandson talked for a while more that Old Master Tang got Tang Lingqiu to help them down the stairs for dinner. At this time, Tang Family boss Lao Er had already returned from work and the third generation were all present as well. When they saw the old man, they all got up to welcome him. Tang Family Boss Lao Er was both a political man, but his only daughter was a heroic man who ran into the army. She married a husband who was from the same army but didn't have any background, and they became a loving couple, having a pair of twins. Although her surname wasn't Tang, she was rather liked by Old Master Tang, and usually lived in the ancestral house of Tang Family.

The atmosphere at the dining table was generally quite harmonious. Even if someone had the intention, they would not dare to stir up trouble at the dining table. They would also have to put on a kind face and ask about the warm weather.

After dinner, Tang Haiwen had a stern face to educate his son: "How many days have you not gone to school properly? Could it be that you want Tang Family to produce a child that was ordered by the school to withdraw from school or be expelled due to attendance? Qingrong's side is also busy and has to take care of you. Do you still not understand when you're an adult? "

"Husband, what are you saying? Qiu just came back, and for a family like ours, which school would dare to fire them? Besides, won't Qiu go to school on Monday the day after tomorrow?" Tao Minxiu said as she served a cup of tea to her man.

Since Tang Haiwen was teaching his son, only Tang Haitian and the old man were able to speak a few sentences, but since Tao Minxiu had spoken, Dai Hong also laughed and said: "What are you talking about, what do you mean people like us, the more people like us have to be more careful, so as to not get caught, second younger brother, you tell me if it is true or not, but when it comes to reading books, I also know a bit about them too. This book has to be learned, it's useless to just enter the classroom to study."

Tang Lingqiu glanced at his grandpa and elder brother, who were talking together but listening closely, and laughed happily, "Okay, cousin is recruiting for investment, I invested in a project. If first aunt believes me, I'll give the money to my nephew, but the project over there is slow, it's a long-term project."

"I heard Old Xie mention this too. Qiu did a good job this time. The success of this project can stimulate the local economic development without damaging the local environment. Very good." Old Master Tang agreed immediately. It was also because of the investment project that Old Master Tang valued his grandson more and more. This kind of discernment and not rushing to gain anything, no matter if it was doing business or going into politics, it couldn't be wrong.

"Thank you for your affirmation, grandpa. I will do it with my heart. However, we will have to go to different places often in the future." Tang Lingqiu took the opportunity to say.

"It doesn't matter. I'll send someone to inform them. The major thing you need to learn is your practical ability. Just like what everyone said, no matter how good your grades are, it's useless." Seeing this, Dai Hong almost laughed out loud. Younger Sister-in-law wanted to discredit Qiu in front of second younger brother and the Old Master, but she actually made a mistake and got Old Master to take this opportunity to give her a warning.

Tang Lingyu was afraid that his mom would catch him talking about his daughter-in-law again, so he just left with Tang Lingqiu. As if guessing what his son was thinking, Dai Hong glared at him hatefully, because if he escaped this time, there would be a next time.

Tang Haiwen had a good opinion about his eldest son, not going home and living outside, but unfortunately, the old man had already agreed. Tang Haiwen had a good opinion about his eldest son, not going home and living outside, but unfortunately, the old man had already agreed.

The only ones who came out to send off the two brothers were the twins Qin Lingjing and Qin Lingwan from the three Tang Family families. The two of them were first year senior, and they were extremely envious of their freedom: "Big Cousin, second cousin, since you two aren't living here, are you going to come back tomorrow? Why don't we go and play with second cousin tomorrow? " If second cousin took them out to play, his parents wouldn't be worried.

When Tang Lingqiu saw the twins, he immediately thought of Ye Wen, who was far away in Anxi. He was about the same age as them, and was also in his first year of high school, so his gaze couldn't help but soften: "Okay, you guys know the place, come over yourself. We'll think about it tomorrow, think about it later tonight."

The twins cheered happily, it was second cousin that was the best. Eldest cousin was a bit more serious, he was not as talkative as second cousin. Tang Lingyu snickered on the side. As the eldest brother, if he didn't have the dignity, how could he make these naughty brothers and sisters listen to him?

Only after seeing the twins enter the house did the brothers continue walking towards the garage. Tang Lingyu advised, "Don't take the words of Second Aunt second uncle to heart. Anyway, grandpa is on your side."

Tang Lingqiu sneered: "It's not the first time, so you don't have to worry about me, I don't care."

Honestly speaking, it wasn't the same as a day of cold, which made this kind of situation extremely significant for Second Aunt. However, he had to say that second uncle was also in the wrong. As a father, as an adult, he was actually stronger than second younger brother who was still a child at that time.

At that time, Xie Family helping second uncle get his current position was a good thing, but looking at it now, it was a bad thing. Why? Competence didn't match, so the result was that second uncle was becoming more and more left-handed and doing things in a more orderly fashion.

But now, with his grandpa watching him, second uncle couldn't do anything about Qiu. To be honest, one day, his grandpa wasn't around anymore, and second uncle believed that his little brother would grow to the point that even second uncle couldn't casually interfere. As for Little An's younger cousin, he could also see that his grandfather had simply allowed his second aunt second uncle to raise him freely. Honestly speaking, with Second Aunt's scope of vision, the child she raised wouldn't be that magnanimous. That way, she wouldn't be able to surpass Qiu.
