Chapter 343
"Grandpa, what did you say? - Cancel... the family's marriage policy??!"
Song Meiyuan was stunned for a while, seeing that her grandfather still had a calm smile, not joking, she finally said in surprise.
"En." Song Laogui nodded slowly, the doting look in his eyes became more and more obvious, "When did Grandpa make a joke? - Haha, I'm serious this time."
"grandfather……"
Song Meiyuan is not a stupid girl. For such a young girl who grew up by her grandfather's side, it is impossible not to know her grandfather's temper.
Song Laozi, Song Laogui, Song Jiang.
A generation of ghosts in the capital.
He is a character who never lies. Although he is not a king, he has no jokes.
Relying on "marriage" to make a fortune is really a little dissent. When Song Laozi gradually entered the success, he also suffered the infamy from the outside world. But later, his discerning style of doing things, and the style of a thousand pieces of gold made him a big man admired by everyone in the wealthy circle of the capital.
Speaking of which, I have to mention the "Four Heavenly Kings" of the capital.
As I said before, among the four heavenly kings in the capital are the current patriarch of the Pan family, "Pan Wang", the current patriarch of the Xu family, "Xu Qiannian", and the third Han family's "Shang Wang" Han Zhennan.
The third place is the Song family's old man.
Song Laozi became famous late. After all, the family tradition and policy of marriage is a planned investment with a long cycle, and the results are seen relatively late. Therefore, when he was 50 years old, he officially entered the circle of the top wealthy family in the capital. Then it took a few years for him to use his huge interpersonal relationships, as well as his unique vision and style of doing things, to gradually emerge in the top-tier giants circle, which is full of talents, and then shocked everyone.
At that time, it was the era of the strong rise of Pan Wang, Xu Millennium, and Han Laosan.
Therefore, in the ranks of the "Four Heavenly Kings", Mr. Song was naturally put in.
Note that the last mention of Song Laozi Song Jiang does not mean that he is the last of these four heavenly kings. ——but first place!
The head of the Four Heavenly Kings, Song Jiang.
The descendants of the wealthy family in the capital, who were born and raised in the capital, are unknown to everyone.
Although the other three were in the wrong generation from him, no one made fun of him.
In other words, Mr. Song is a model of inspiration in China.
Few people in the world know what Mr. Song did when he was young.
He was born in a time of war and his parents died. It is said that his ancestral home is in Foshan, a place where many heroes are born. Later, lonely and alone, dragging his scrawny body, he moved north to the Central Plains. At that time, he was only a teenager. To put it bluntly, he adhered to the belief in saving the country and the people in his heart. With a thin body, Carrying a tattered porcelain bowl picked up from a garbage heap, he begged for food all the way to Nanjing.
With bad luck, he caught up with the brutal Nanjing Massacre. He was alone, holding a pig-killing knife from the butcher's house in the village, and slaughtered more than 20 little devils in their sleep overnight. . Then, when the enemy's aid did not arrive, he took the three households that were killed in a village and escaped from the dilapidated village that was being swept away at that time.
He was too young and too thin, and the combat troops dared not accept him, so he made a soil sprayer and followed the peasant guards to fight guerrillas all the way from Nanjing to the north.
In this way, after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, he was so excited that he did not sleep for several days and nights.
However, with it comes the problem of life.
So he picked up the broken broken porcelain bowl again and started begging for food. It was not until he arrived in the capital that he began to work as a coolie.
From the age of 20 to 30, he has done everything, a dock worker, a stevedore, a textile mill worker, a spinning mill security guard, and even plucking tree bark to eat during natural disasters. To dig out the big shit.
Later, he finally found a stable job as a workshop worker in a machinery factory in Beijing. There, he met a very important woman in his life, that is, later his wife, Song Meiyuan, and Song Zhihan's grandmother.
After getting married, Song Jiang finally turned around. He followed a friend he met on the factory floor and went to the south to do business in the sea, where dragons and snakes were mixed. After a few years, he returned to the capital with hundreds of thousands of assets. Unfortunately, the friend who went to the sea with him in the south was killed by a group of people who robbed the road. And Song Jiang, who almost gave his life to the south, the shocking scar on his back with the opening of the iron hook flower is still on his back, lying quietly, forever telling the crazy and full of surprises in the chaotic era .
The so-called hardships do not die, there must be future blessings.
Song Jiang, who was in his prime, used his hundreds of thousands of assets to start his struggle for the giants in the capital...
After that, things went smoothly. Unlike the home-grown wealthy family in the capital, Song Jiang killed devils and dealt with the god of death. In his bones, there was a man's blood that belonged to the Chinese nation. With his unique vision, he has occupied a place in the upper class of the capital.
So, in the blink of an eye, it is now.
Song Laozi is like a leading figure in the capital's wealthy family.
The head of the Four Heavenly Kings, for him who came from a begging background, his present glory is as precious! rare!
...The story about grandpa, Song Meiyuan, heard from grandpa herself.
To tell the truth, no more than three people in the entire Song family, old and young, knew about the history of such a hard struggle of Old Master Song.
Therefore, for his grandfather, Song Meiyuan, there is a kind of respect and love that is almost looking up.
"Girl, grandpa knows that our family's marriage tradition is despised by many people. But it is such a tradition that our family has rapidly expanded from a small nouveau riche to what it is today. On the first day my grandfather came to the capital. From the beginning, Grandpa knew that everything here is about means. At that time, Grandpa was eager to revitalize the family, so he chose such a crooked way... Hehe..." Having said that, Old Man Song gently shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Grandpa, Miyuan understands you." Song Meiyuan looked at Old Man Song with firm eyes, "If it wasn't for this tradition set by Grandpa, our family would never have the status it is today."
"But... Now, this tradition is about to be changed." Speaking of which, Mr. Song stood up, turned slightly, and slowly paced to the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking out at the towering high-rise buildings. He seemed to be a little older, and there was a faint smile on the corners of his wrinkled eyes, "Back then, our Song family was not as good as it is now. As a nouveau riche, delusionally trying to enter the upper-class circle of the wealthy family is undoubtedly like a mouse crossing the street, everyone shouting and beating." - But now it is different. We already have enough contacts, although we can continue to expand. In this way, after decades or even hundreds of years, maybe our Song family will become the largest family in China. Grandpa thought that this has always been the What I want the most. But these days, Grandpa has figured out a lot of things, and Grandpa found out... what Grandpa really wants is not these..."
Song Meiyuan was fascinated to hear that even though her grandfather's favorite granddaughter, she seldom saw her grandfather showing such a sentimental and melancholy appearance. She couldn't help asking subconsciously, "Then... Grandpa, what do you really want?"
Hearing this, Old Man Song suddenly smiled, his eyes were full of kindness, he came back to his senses, walked slowly to Song Meiyuan's side and sat down again, and then lightly stroked the head of his precious granddaughter, and said kindly: "What Grandpa wants most...of course, is the smile of the baby girl."
"Grandpa!—" Hearing this, Song Meiyuan suddenly choked up in her throat, feeling a warm flow in her chest, and she was caught off guard. Tears welled up in her beautiful eyes, and then burst into tears.
She was so moved that she plunged into Grandpa's arms at once, just like when she was a child, sniffing the smell of old tobacco on Grandpa's body and listening to Grandpa's remarks about his past. At this moment, Song Meiyuan was no longer the female robber Song Xiaoniu, but a weak girl.
Grandpa has spoken, and the family wants to change the tradition, just to make her granddaughter smile.
This kind of heavy fatherly love, Song Meiyuan clearly felt from her grandfather. In fact, Song Meiyuan's father treated his daughter well, but her father was just a mediocrity who followed the rules of Song Jiang Song's success. Naturally, he didn't have the courage and power of his grandfather. It is true that Song Meiyuan's father, who is not even the eldest son, is not directly related, and has no right to say something like "abolishing the family marriage policy".
This is the foundation of the Song family. It was founded by Song Meiyuan's grandfather, Mr. Song. If it is to be abolished, it must be done through his own hands.
"Our family's status is already very high now, so we no longer need to do things like marriage. Grandpa has figured it out clearly. No ambition is as important as the happiness of the family." Old Man Song said with a smile, lightly. Gently wiped away the tears from Song Meiyuan's face, "Little girl, you're such a big girl, why are you crying? Hurry up, at today's dinner, grandpa still hopes to make my beautiful granddaughter look good to our old Song family. Woolen cloth."
"Grandpa, you said again that your granddaughter is ugly..." Song Meiyuan burst into laughter when she heard Grandpa's compliment, but her expression was a little sad.
The old man Song is a person who is alive and well. His eyes are so sharp, he can see the deep meaning in Song Meiyuan's eyes at a glance. ——The girl showed this look, it was clear that her heart belonged...
"Oh?" Old Man Song smiled, "Girl, tell me, how is that guy?"
"Huh?" Song Meiyuan was stunned when she heard the words, but then a hint of shyness flashed on her face, Hongxia flew up to her cheeks, and said coquettishly, "Grandpa~~What did you say?~~"
