    If you said the first two sentences, Meng Xing instinctively followed Chu Youan's prompt, and said the rest of the words were purely caused by himself. Seeing their speechless expressions, Meng Xing's face became more and more smug.

    After sending everyone away, the three of them sat down in the living room before Meng Xing asked cautiously, "Isn't that a bit too much?"

    "It's okay." The old man said with a straight face.

    Meng Xing boldly said, "Grandpa, you don't seem to be all right."

    The old man gave a "tsk", "Didn't I ask someone to tell you not to come in? Their mouths... Hey, I seem to have forgotten to tell the person, and the mind to tell you... Damn, forget it."

    Meng Xing: "..."

    Chu Youan: "Even if we don't go in today, they still have to find a chance to show their presence in front of Xiao Xing."

    The old man said "En", "It's also very good. If they find another opportunity another day, I won't be able to hear Xiao Xing's pleasant speech. I can't help it in this position. There is still a lot of trouble in the head of the family."There are some old people who are not dead, I can sue them with a few words."

    As soon as this was said, the phone in the living room rang.

    Those who can make this call are those old guys that the old man just said.

    "Hey, second child, I said I'm coming over to have a meal. I just contacted Shiqiu to meet my granddaughter-in-law. How can you say that they have already left your house, and I can't catch up with the meal?"

    "If you didn't tell me earlier, Youan and Xiao Xing didn't know that everyone was coming, and they ordered a meal outside in advance. I didn't know about it, otherwise I couldn't keep them for dinner. I can't live up to the filial piety of the two children.", I can only let everyone go back first, and the two children will have a good banquet later." The old man said with a smile.

    Meng Xing looked at Chu Youan, Chu Youan made a gesture with the old man and led Meng Xing out of the living room to the yard.

    "Don't worry about it." Chu Youan took Meng Xing's hand and said, "The old man doesn't talk about them because he really doesn't care. After more than 80 years, he has seen too many people and things.There is no disturbance in the heart, and the second is that they are grandpa's brothers in the previous generation."

    Back then, there were many brothers and sisters, and the big family relationship was important, so the old man couldn't make trouble with them in the open.

    Although it was said that the Anyi Group was started by the old man himself, there are these blood ties after all, so he brought his brothers along to develop together.

    Therefore, each family has some shares, and they are not a small amount together. Chu Youan has no way to move them directly, so he can only shake the mountain. If the disturbance is not too ugly on weekdays, Chu Youan can see it for the sake of the old man.Above all, don't care about them, let them get dividends from shareholders with peace of mind.

    "To put it bluntly, they are waiting for the old man to be in poor health and can't take care of things. With the old man here, they can't do anything too extreme, so they can only come to me and mention the shares from time to time. Let the old manI know it in my heart, and I will divide it well in the will, and I can probably guess what is ugly about it today."

    Meng Xing answered, "I can guess it too, so let's not talk about it."

    It's just that there is more Meng Cheng Group on the cake plate. Meng Xing is the only son. Meng Xing and Chu Youan will eventually belong to Meng Cheng Group. The Chu family should give them more shares.

    If it is more ugly, it will involve two men getting married and have no heirs. It is better to let the juniors of the family enter the management position to train early, so that they can take over the company from Chu Youan.

    They were already bold enough to say this in front of old man Chu. Once the old man fell ill or passed away, these people might go crazy.

    Meng Xing thought of this along the way, and grabbed Chu Youan's hand, Chu Youan patted him reassuringly, "Smart Xiao Xing, be good, I believe in your husband's ability, you must know that I don't move them because of their respective families.The old people are still there."

    When Chu Youan joined the company at the age of seventeen, he had a car accident, which can be regarded as an accidental car accident.Fortunately, he reacted quickly and turned the steering wheel. He only suffered trauma and recovered after half a year of care.

    He doesn't know whether the old man is aware of the relationship behind it, but he knows very well who did it.

    At the beginning, Chu Youan also complained why the old man still had contact with the family. The old man should know the faces of those people, but as he got older, he understood the loneliness of the old man. There is only himself and his rebellious grandson in the big family.sad.

    Brotherhood is probably his last sustenance.

    But this only brotherhood can only linger on the surface, and it can barely be maintained for the sake of not being embarrassed.

    "Should we often come back to have dinner with grandpa?" Meng Xing suggested, "Think about it carefully, grandpa is over eighty, today grandpa is using a walking stick for acting, what if one day it becomes real?"

    "He may not be free when we are free." Chu Youan smiled, "Let's just let it go. Grandpa never liked me guarding him. He used to joke that I was like a filial piety. And he always couldn't eat when I was by the side."What he wants to eat, I will scold him."

    "Let's go, go in, grandpa should have finished calling?"

    "Yep."

    "I thought you two ran away and didn't take me to dinner." The old man teased as soon as he entered the room.

    Chu Youan: "Where will I take you to eat? Just eat at home, Uncle Zhou, tell the kitchen to pay attention to the combination of meat and vegetables, and don't let me see too greasy dishes."

    "Are you coaxing me to play together?" The old man curled his lips, very unhappy.

    "If you didn't drive them away in advance, would we need an excuse to say that?" Chu Youan snapped back.

    Meng Xing saw that the grandparents and grandsons were fighting each other back and forth, and interrupted with a smile: "Grandpa, count us as a debtor, write it down, and I will definitely take you to eat some other day."

    Mr. Chu opened the drawer under the coffee table, took out the tablet from it, swiped the tablet with his head down, and handed the tablet to Meng Xing after a minute, "Let's sign."

    Meng Xing: "?"

    After seeing the content on the tablet, a series of ellipses slid across Meng Xing's head.

    In this minute, the old man made a contract.Take a closer look, this is still a contract template, and think signed it with Chu Youan before.

    What kind of past experience made the old man think about signing the contract all the time?

    "Brother didn't do what he promised grandpa before?"

    Chu Youan: "...I've done it all, the old man likes this, so ignore him."

    Chu Youan said so, took the tablet in his hand without delay and signed it directly.

    "Hey! This is a contract for the little rabbit, what do you sign?"

    "What's the matter, the relationship between husband and wife is also valid."

    Little Rabbit Meng Xing did not participate in the conversation between the two of them, took the tablet back and added his own name after Chu Youan's.

    There was still a while before dinner at six o'clock, the old man disliked the two of them whispering to each other, so he asked someone to find checkers and asked the two children to play checkers with him.

    "This set of checkers was from Chu Youan's primary school days. It has been played for thirty years."

    Chu Youan: "...Grandpa, I am thirty this year."

    The old man set up his side of the game, "Oh, I thought you were over forty."

    Meng Xing laughed until his shoulders shook.

    Don't try to reason with the old naughty boy, Chu Youan stopped talking, let Meng Xing choose the color he likes, and slowly place the chess pieces.Looking at the checkers, he was still very touched, and a little nostalgic... he wanted to share it with Meng Xing.

    "It was almost when grandpa brought me back from my uncle's house. I didn't talk much, so grandpa bought this chess set to accompany me. Although I dislike such a naive thing, it's very good."

    "Yes, the meager relationship between grandparents and grandchildren is maintained by this checkers. It's hard to get the little dumb to speak. The first sentence is to say that I am old and useless." The old man took the first step, "Hmph, unworthy descendants,At that time, I raised the chessboard. Hey, the more I think about it, the more I get angry, I can't play anymore!"

    As he said that, the old man squeezed all the chess pieces from Chu Youan's side into the grid next to them.

    Chu Youan immediately stared at the old man, and the grandparent and grandson started a contest of blowing their beards and staring.

    Meng Xing: "..."

    Or don't come back to eat often, this meal is choking.

    After staring for a while, Chu Youan gave up first. To be precise, he didn't give up, but thought that he could take advantage of the situation to drive the old man out of the game, and played chess with Meng Xing by himself, "If you don't play, just watch from the sidelines."

    He moved the chessboard and put it between himself and Meng Xing, then rearranged the chessboard, only putting Meng Xing and himself on it.

    The walking stick that the old man put aside was taken into his hand again, and he held it up high, "Unworthy descendant, how dare you!"

    "Grandpa, let's play." Meng Xing tugged Chu Youan's hand, and moved the chessboard in another direction.

    The old man put down his walking stick and laughed immediately, "Okay."

    Chu Youan stretched out his palm angrily and shook it in front of Meng Xing's eyes.

    Meng Xing: "..."

    He stretched out his hand and pressed down four of his fingers, Chu Youan hit his hand with the other hand, Meng Xing felt the pain, let go of his hand, Chu Youan's slap stood up again.

    Meng Xing responded with difficulty: "OK."

    "What charades are you two playing?"

    "I want you to take care of it." Chu Youan withdrew his hand in satisfaction, "Go ahead, I'll watch for Xiao Xing, you will definitely lose."

    "fart!"

    "Will you bet or not?"

    "Just bet, I'm afraid of you?"

    "Okay, if you lose, work for me three days a month, isn't that too much?"

    "The conditions are limited to this year, and one year's honeymoon is enough."

    "it is good."

    "If you lose, hey, come back for dinner every day for a month."

    Chu Youan was stunned for a moment, a little surprised, and answered in a low voice after a long while: "En."

    The chess game started, and the simple game of checkers became murderous. Meng Xing rolled his Adam's apple and silently stepped aside, letting the grandparent and grandson play against each other.

    Chu Youan's right hand was on the chessboard, and his left hand gently hooked Meng Xing's finger.

    He played very seriously, Meng Xing watched the chess game for a while, and then his eyes fell on Chu Youan's face.

    I don't know if Chu Youan, who is seven or eight years old, is the same, but his indifferent face is extremely serious.

    The old man noticed Meng Xing's eyes, and couldn't help but slightly raised the corner of his mouth. The chess piece held between his fingers hesitated for a while, and landed on a position that was not in the plan.

    It was only ten minutes after the end of a game of chess. The old man lost. He scolded them with a dissatisfied face and got up, "I won't play with you anymore, let's play by myself. I'll go drink water. I'm oldYou want me to go back to work, where did the stinky boy come from, stuff it back and rebuild it."

    Chu Youan looked at the old man's back and said nothing. He waited until the old man passed the corner before turning his gaze away, setting up the chessboard, and playing with Meng Xing.

    The old man came back not long after. It seemed that he really went to drink some water and take two steps to move around. After that, he sat on the side and watched the two children play chess. When Meng Xing made a mistake, he gave a dry cough to remind him, and didn't say anything else.

    It wasn't until meal time that Meng Xing withdrew his troops. Meng Xing won two rounds and dangled three fingers before Chu Youan's eyes.

    "It doesn't count, it doesn't count if you didn't say it in advance, five times, good boy."

    Meng Xing hummed lightly, "Excessive, unworthy descendants!"
