Chapter 19
Mama Zhang bent down to pick up Galileo, disliked him kicking around, and slapped his butt punitively, not daring to use any force.
She turned to look at Guan Zan, and repeated patiently: "Your uncle and aunt were found through the housekeeping company. Director Liu, who was in charge of you, called home yesterday and asked for the old man's opinion, so I gave the home address Give it to them." Zhang Ma raised her hand to signal the wall clock on the wall of the entrance, and said, "Here, I came in less than two hours earlier than you, chatting with the old man."
Guan Zan's mind was in a mess, and he nodded absently: "Got it."
Zhang Ma said with a smile: "I'll go to bathe the dog, and I'll send it to your room when it's clean. The old man heard that you like it, so he allowed it to come in!"
"I'm sorry to trouble you." Guan Zan thanked politely, and turned to Luo Yue, "Mr. Luo, let's go up and put things together. I have to go to the living room, so I won't accompany you. I've had a hard day today, and I'll thank Mr. Ke for me by the way." .”
Luo Yue didn't know about Guan Zan's private affairs, but considering his past and present "identities", and thinking of the two uninvited guests in the living room, it was easy to feel the confusion in the relationship.
"No problem, you can call me anytime you need anything." With his right hand free, Luo Yue took a business card from the inner pocket of his suit and handed it to him, "Mr. You can find me, the assistant’s mobile phone is on 24-hour standby, and I will definitely be able to contact you.”
"Okay, thank you." Guan Zan put away his business card, stood still, and watched Luo Yue and Zhang Ma go up to the second floor.
After the two left, he took out his mobile phone and clicked on the SMS application. There were only read messages and promotional advertisements from e-commerce companies, but no new news.Guan Zan was not shocked by the sudden interview with his uncle and aunt, because after all, he was a living person in the same city, and he kept files and submitted resumes everywhere in the past few months. If the other party really wanted to find him, it would only be a matter of time.
However, the problem now is that the timing is too coincidental, just after he met Yuan Fan by chance.
I don't know what kind of monster that lunatic is doing.
Guan Zan felt a headache when he thought of this, so he stopped bothering and walked towards the living room.
As the distance approached, the sound of conversation came faintly, and Ke Su's tone of voice could tell that he was in a good mood.Guan Zan didn't pay much attention to something in his mind, and the other party suddenly fell silent when they heard the footsteps, so Guan Zan heard the last sentence without beginning or end, saying: "It was him who made me worry the most, oh... ..."
A sigh came from Ke Su.
Out of the corridor, Guan Zan noticed that Ke Su was just looking this way, so he bowed respectfully and said, "Teacher." He walked over and greeted another man and a woman, "Uncle, aunt, how long has it been?" Gone."
Guan Zan's uncle is named Yuan Zhijun, and is the half-brother of his mother Yuan Xin. Because of their blood, the two actually look nothing alike.Yuan Zhijun has been around for a few years, and he often drinks and socializes in the business field, so his figure is unavoidable. Judging by the current standards, he has the greasy feeling of a middle-aged man, but he has a decent face and is an honest and kind person.
At home, Yuan Zhijun is only responsible for making money, and his words don't carry much weight, and he can't make decisions.
It was Guan Zan's aunt, Sun Yanhong, who could decide.
The old saying goes that a person is born from the heart, but it is not only one-sided to use rough four characters to characterize a person, but also suspected of judging a person by appearance.But Guan Zan has a deep understanding of this word, because since the first time he lived in his uncle's house when he was seven years old, he has been terrified of his aunt's face.
You are also afraid of laughing, you are also afraid of anger, and you are even more afraid when you are not smiling or angry.I was afraid that Xiao Guan Zan would not be able to drive himself crazy in the end, and finally became numb.
Just like now, he can politely call her "aunt" again in front of others.There is no need to worry about being seen out. Before he ran away from home, the two had completely torn their faces once.
Ke Su was happy to see Guan Zan, and beckoned him to come and sit beside him, stroked his hair and squeezed his arms, to make sure that he hadn't lost his flesh, and then he was relieved.
Yuan Zhijun couldn't hide what was going on, he was a little afraid to look into Guan Zan's eyes, smiled shyly, and asked with concern: "How are you doing outside?"
Asking himself, Yuan Zhijun felt sorry for this little nephew.
Although he and Yuan Xin were of the same father and half mother, they were the only biological sisters among their peers. Even if they could not be said to depend on each other, they were still closer than other relatives.
Guan Zan had a strict family education when he was young, and after he moved in, he was quiet and obedient, which was very different from the spoiled Yuan Fan.The child lost his father at the age of six, and his mother went crazy less than half a year later. He was usually busy with business and flew all over the country, but rounding it up was watching Guan Zan grow up. How could he have no feelings?
When Sun Yanhong and Guan Zan had problems at the beginning of the year, Yuan Zhijun happened to be in Guangdong to discuss cooperation with suppliers. When he came back, Guan Zan had already left.All the details of the quarrel came out later when Sun Yanhong cursed and complained to Guan Zan. Yuan Zhijun made up a rough idea in his heart, but he didn't believe it all, because only he, the person who married her, knew how domineering the woman in the family was.
Taking another [-] steps, Guan Zan is a child, whether he is wrong or how big it is, you can talk about it.Sun Yanhong is an adult, and it is wrong for an adult to force a child away.Yuan Zhijun is a bit machismo in thought, but it is a pity that he can't be tough at home, so when the sense of justice in his heart is put into words, there is often only a soft sentence "Why are you so angry with him?"
This is actually the irresponsibility unique to many adults.
They like to use "children" and "adults" to distinguish right from wrong. Their purpose is not to distinguish the reasons, but to make big things into small things.In their eyes, right and wrong are not worth arguing about, and the most important thing is the prosperity of family and everything.
Guan Zan watched Yuan Zhijun stir up mud for ten years, so he knew his style of handling family affairs very well.
He raised his eyes to look at the uncle sitting opposite him, and replied obediently: "It's okay, after changing a few jobs, I will be able to support myself gradually." When he said this, there was a just right smile on the corners of his eyes and brows , seems very gentle and sensible.However, his gaze failed to carry the warmth of that smile, and fell on Yuan Zhijun's face, as if watching a not-so-funny joke.
Yuan Zhijun didn't pay attention. Hearing the words, he seemed to have finally passed the hurdle of "not taking good care of his nephew". He breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said, "That's good... that's good!" Guan Zan seemed to be comforting himself.
"Zan-Zan, I heard from your aunt about the quarrel. It was her fault. She cares too much about your child." Yuan Zhijun leaned forward, clasped his hands and fingers, and his attitude was very sincere. So good, what a pity not to go to college?"
"Go home and take next year's college entrance examination again. You should study for undergraduate first. If your grades are good, uncle can continue to support you to study abroad!" He looked at Ke Su, his voice was a little weaker, and there was a kind of family ugliness on his face that was seen by outsiders. , but not obviously, "You don't have to worry about Yuan Xin's illness. Your aunt said angry words that day. She is my younger sister. Even if it can't be cured, I would like her to live. How can I ignore her?"
After speaking, he moved his elbow a little, urging Sun Yanhong next to him.
Sun Yan has red eyebrows and narrow eyes, with a natural look of sternness.Today she behaved abnormally, she smiled gently and softly, and even her voice was soft. She said to Guan Zan, "How can a family have an overnight feud? It's been more than half a year, so don't get angry with your aunt anymore, listen to your uncle." If so, go home and live."
She was clever with her words and didn't fill her mouth with words.After a few seconds of silence, the shrewd eyes of the woman turned and met Ke Su's with a smile: "However, since Mr. Ke appreciates it, we, Zan-Zan, are determined to take the road of professional performance. You learn the piano, and you will be admitted to a domestic conservatory in the future. With your cultivation and support, our children will definitely have a great future!"
Ke Su has been waiting for this word.
He had finally managed to get Guan Zanpan here and brought him under his door, so he naturally didn't want to let him go casually.However, the other party is a relative after all, and he has fulfilled the responsibility of a guardian for ten years. Today, he personally visited the house, apologized and reconciled with good words. He is an outsider with no blood relationship, after all, he is not qualified to interfere too much.
"I think it's okay!" Ke Su agreed, and then asked Guan Zan, "Are you still willing to learn piano from the teacher?"
Guan Zan was suspicious, and couldn't tell what kind of medicine his uncle and aunt were selling in the gourd.He was quiet for a while before slowly opening his mouth: "As long as the teacher doesn't drive me away, I'm sure I'd like to stay by your side. To be honest, it doesn't matter to me whether I'm successful or not, but you said that you don't want a student who can't achieve anything." , so I will work harder for the success and fame you want."
Ke Su is old and easily emotional, and his eye circles turned red after hearing this.
"It's just..." Guan Zan pursed his lips hesitantly, and glanced at Sun Yanhong not far away, "I don't want to go home."
After he finished speaking, before Ke Su had time to speak, Sun Yanhong immediately grabbed the conversation: "Why don't you go home? Isn't it okay if my aunt knows that I made a mistake? Besides, Mr. Ke is not in good health and needs to rest normally. You There will still be interruptions to practicing the piano every day."
"Let's do this." Sun Yanhong didn't say anything, and took a step back by herself, "Anyway, I'm not in a hurry for a day or two, you think it over carefully, and if you have a decision, call home, and I'll ask Fanfan to pick you up. Is it ok?"
Guan Zan didn't want to say more, so he nodded perfunctorily.
It was already past the meal time, Yuan Zhijun declined the lunch invitation and planned to go home as soon as possible.It was Ke Su's first time seeing him, but it was embarrassing to talk about the bond between Yu Wen and Yuan Xin between the two of them. If Guan Zan hadn't entered the door, they would have talked endlessly.
Before leaving, Ke Su asked Guan Zan to see off his uncle and aunt.Guan Zan listened to the old man and took the two of them to the parking lot to pick up the car.
After the rain, the temperature rose sharply, and the noon sunshine was poisonous and hot.
The parking lot was not covered, and the car was exposed to direct sunlight for nearly three hours, and the temperature inside was very high.
Yuan Zhijun felt sorry for his wife, so he took two quick steps to start the engine, and then turned on the air conditioner to cool down the cabin.Guan Zan didn't want to be alone with Sun Yanhong, and was about to follow his uncle, but his arm was caught off guard, and he turned to look at Sun Yanhong.Sun Yanhong held up a parasol, wore sunglasses on her face, she couldn't see much expression, but the smile she had just given to Ke Su had indeed disappeared.
"I have something to tell you." She dragged Guan Zan to the shade of a tree on the side, where there was shade, not so hot, and far away from Yuan Zhijun.
Sun Yanhong took off her sunglasses, looked at Guan Zan sarcastically, and said in a low voice, "I warn you, if you still dare to resist, then you will never see the piano your father left behind for the rest of your life." She sneered, The smile is always arrogant, "Although I don't know how you got into the Ke family, but since the old man thinks highly of you, then you should make good use of your advantages and earn more."
"I can tell you that I have had someone appraise that guqin. It is an antique, and its value is not low. If you want it now, it will not be the price that was negotiated at the beginning. At least you have to add another zero to me. Otherwise I might as well find someone who knows the goods, and save me from having to fight with you, a little bitch who has no parents!"
Guan Zan's face was pale, and he went to grab Sun Yanhong's collar on impulse.
Sun Yanhong was not afraid of him, and even took a step forward on purpose: "Why, you still want to beat your aunt in his backyard?"
At this time, Yuan Zhijun opened the door and announced loudly that he could get in the car.
Sun Yanhong sneered, ignored Guan Zan, and left without looking back.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the parking lot.
In the business car, Luo Yue stared at Guan Zan who was motionless under the shade of a tree, took out his mobile phone, and dialed Ke Jinrui's number.
"Mr. Ke, it's me." Luo Yue pulled out the key, planning to leave later to avoid being noticed by Guan Zan, "Is it convenient for you now? I have to tell you something..."
