Zhao Xiaotian recalled the past, and all the past events were vividly in his mind.

After a long silence, Zhao Xiaotian shook the wine glass in his hand and said slowly: "At that time, your Uncle Gu and Uncle Jin and I were both members of the Collection Association. We both liked to collect high-quality antiques from various dynasties. Later, it was

Your Uncle Gu introduced Uncle Yang to us and joined our small team. Your Uncle Yang is well-informed and his appreciation of some ancient cultural relics is even better than mine."

"Then how did our Zhao family get discovered to be one of the five great aristocratic families?" Zhao Xu asked.

Zhao Xiaotian frowned and said: "This matter is very strange. I have always been cautious in doing things. Once I brought you Uncle Yang, Uncle Gu, and Uncle Jin to visit my private collection at home. After that, I got the news that someone wanted to

Thoroughly investigate the Zhao family. Fortunately, I have someone at the police station

I knew someone who informed me early, so I moved some important collections of the Zhao family! From then on, I felt that the Zhao family was being watched. Later, when I was planning to move abroad, your Uncle Yang also moved here.

.But later, your Uncle Yang moved back to China."

"I also suspect that some of them framed me. But if Yang Huaian was from Dongchang, how could he let me go, but it was Xichang who came to my Zhao family?" Zhao Xiaotian said puzzledly.

After hearing what his father Zhao Xiaotian said, Zhao Xu couldn't help but frown.

If Yang Huaian is related to Dongchang, and if he learns that the Zhao family is from the "Five Great Families", he will definitely take the Zhao family's guardian ring. But it is the people from Xichang who control the Zhao family. This makes sense

It really doesn't make sense.

Zhao Xu overturned his inner speculation and believed that only Yang Xing was from Dongchang. Yang Huaian and Yang Lan, the father and daughter, should have nothing to do with "Dongchang".

"By the way, your sixth uncle has a good relationship with your uncle Gu's brother Gu Yuan. You can ask Xiaoxue to help and ask his uncle to invite your sixth uncle out to do something!"

When Zhao Xiaotian mentioned "Gu Xixue", Zhao Xu missed this girl a little.

Since Gu Xixue went home for the funeral, she often called Zhao Xu a while ago. Later, she didn't call Zhao Xu for a while.

Zhao Xu nodded and said, "Don't worry! Leave it to me."

The father and son were chatting and drinking. Unknowingly, the two bottles of red wine had reached the bottom.

Early the next morning, Zhao Xu sent a message to Gu Xixue and asked her to meet at the hotel where she was staying.

Zhao Xu used a code word that only Gu Xixue and Gu Xixue knew. As soon as Gu Xixue read the message, she knew that the other party must be Zhao Xu. So, without saying anything, she hurried to the "Jinye Hotel" where Zhao Xu was staying after breakfast.

.

Jinye Hotel is the property of Jinzhong’s family.

After arriving abroad, Zhao Xu immediately had a phone call with Jin Zhong. Therefore, it is absolutely safe for the three of Zhao Xu and others to live here.

Zhao Xu had just returned to the room after breakfast. After hearing a knock on the door for a long time, he knew it was Gu Xixue and opened the door.

Seeing that the person who opened the door was indeed Zhao Xu, Gu Xixue flew up happily, stretched out her arms to hug Zhao Xu, and said happily: "Brother Xu, is it really you?"

Zhao Xu smiled, put his hand on Gu Xixue's smooth forehead, knocked lightly, and said, "Of course it's me! Otherwise, who can understand the code between us." He closed the door and closed it.

Gu Xixue blushed, hurriedly let go of Zhao Xu, and said excitedly: "Brother Xu, why are you here?"

"Xiaoxue, this matter is a long story. By the way, have Grandpa Gu's funeral arrangements been arranged?"

Gu Xixue said "Yes!", nodded and said: "Yes! Everything has been arranged."

"Xiaoxue, I came to you this time because I need your help with something!"

"Well! You say."

"Come here and talk!" Zhao Xu called Gu Xixue to the sofa in the living room.

After the two sat down, Zhao Xu described a rough idea and asked Gu Xixue to call her uncle Gu Yuan and make an appointment with Zhao Xu's sixth uncle, Zhao Xiaoxin.

Gu Xixue has been following Zhao Xu like a follower since she was a child. She has always obeyed Zhao Xu's words. She didn't ask Zhao Xu why. For her, handling this matter was a piece of cake.

"Okay! Then wait for my call. I'll go find my Uncle Yuan right now! Brother Xu, where can we make an appointment?"

"Let's make an appointment at your Gu family's Xueyue Hotel! Then, you can act according to my plan."

"Understood!" Gu Xixue nodded.

Zhao family!

After Zhao Xiaoxin received the call from Gu Yuan, he sneaked out without saying a word.

Gu Yuan asked him to go to "Xueyue Hotel" to taste new dishes.

Xueyue Hotel is very famous locally and is the Gu family's overseas catering chain.

After Zhao Xiaoxin arrived at the "Xueyue Hotel", Gu Yuan warmly entertained him.

Zhao Xiaotian is good friends with Gu Yuan's brother, Gu Xixue's father Gu Yan; but Zhao Xiaoxin is good friends with Gu Yuan.

Zhao Xiaotian and Gu Xixue's father Gu Yan, Jin Zhong's father Jin Shaohui, and Yang Lan's father Yang Huaian are collectively known as the "Four Friends of Jiangnan!" because all four of them live in Jiangnan.

Due to some reasons for their respective families, the four families later moved abroad one after another.

During this time, the affairs of the Zhao family were spreading a lot. As a good friend of Zhao Xiaoxin, Gu Yuan naturally asked him about some matters of the Zhao family.

But regarding the affairs of the Zhao family, Zhao Xiaoxin looked obviously impatient and said to Gu Yuan: "Gu Yuan, we came out to have a drink and have a good time, so we should not talk about those disappointing things. By the way, your old man's funeral has been settled properly.

Alright?"

"Yes! It's taken care of." Gu Yuan nodded.

"Then how much property did you get?" Zhao Xiaoxin asked curiously.

Gu Yuan smiled and said: "The old man didn't make a will during his lifetime, and my brothers and sisters fought for the family property and made a big fuss! However, I am on the side of my brother Gu Yan. Hey! People. Usually brothers and sisters

They get along well, but when their own interests are involved, all kinds of ugly faces are exposed."

"Our Zhao family's life is not easy either! It's almost the same as your Gu family's." Gu Xiaoxin sighed.

"Xiao Xin, don't you hold a certain proportion of shares in the Zhao family?" Gu Yuan asked with a frown.

"What's the use of owning a certain proportion of shares? I have no heirs and no inheritance rights. In other words, the assets that fall into my hands will sooner or later fall into the hands of others." Zhao Xiaoxin said with emotion.

"Your illness hasn't been cured yet?"

"Still healing! Let's not talk about this anymore. Didn't you tell me that there are new dishes for me to try? Let's eat and drink while chatting about some happy things!"

Gu Yuan waved to the waiter and asked the kitchen to start cooking.

After several new dishes were served, Zhao Xiaoxin was full of praise for the food. He said that the chef hired by the Gu family's "Xueyue Restaurant" was comparable to a Michelin chef.

After drinking a few glasses of wine, Zhao Xiaoxin fell onto the table.

"Xiao Xin!"

"Xiao Xin!"

Gu Yuan tried to push Zhao Xiaoxin's body, but Zhao Xiaoxin was very drunk.
Chapter completed!
