The private room of the teahouse is on the second floor. From above, you can clearly hear the ditties babbling and singing in the middle hall downstairs. Looking through the antique carved wooden window beside the table, there is a small river below, with slightly moving waves and flowing slowly. ; On the opposite bank is a brick building of the same style, which has been baptized by wind and rain for several years on this ancient stone street, leaving traces of time everywhere.

"You two are here to serve tea." The clerk spoke Mandarin with a Wu dialect accent, and placed the tea set on the wooden table in a sophisticated manner, opened two teacups, scalded them with tea, and then poured new tea, and handed them to the two. in front of people.

"Thank you, we will ring the bell if you need a refill." This is not the first time Wen Xu has been here, and he knows the service in the building very well.

"It's fine." The clerk thoughtfully closed the screen, leaving space for the two of them, and moved to other tables.

"What did you want to say when you called me out this time?" Wen Can didn't know what the old lady said to Wen Xu, but she could probably guess a lot.

"How many people can you mobilize in the side branch now?" Before looking for an ally, it is natural to find out the size of the opponent's current wings.

As soon as Wen Xu's question came out, Wen Can felt that something was wrong, so he bit the bullet and pretended to be stupid, and replied: "I have basically been in charge of it for the past few years. With the old lady's permission, it is natural to ask how much how many."

Wen Xu pulled his face, picked up the teacup, and made a gesture to splash it forward.

"Hey!" Wen Can quickly hid to the side, shouting while hiding, "I'm afraid of you! I'm telling the truth!"

Only then did Wen Xu put his hand away, raised his head and drank the tea in the cup in one gulp.

"The core of the side branch is in my hands. After all, the main family is still controlled by the old lady, and she doesn't pay attention to the side branch." What Wen Can said this time is true. The old lady's desire to control the main family has not been counted for so many years. .

"It's good to be able to move, as long as you have chips in your hand, things will be much easier." Wen Xu is very satisfied with Wen Can's answer, and Wen Can has not been in vain all these years.

"Bargaining chips? Wait, let me tell you earlier, I can't accompany you to engage in outrageous things." Wen Can knew that it would be no good for Wen Xu to be so secretive and ask him to come out. The Wen family has already had a Wen Honghan, and now it's all over. Well, Wen Xu followed suit, just like his father.

Wen Xu rolled his eyes at him, "It's a miracle that you can grow so big like a straight Miaohong."

Wen Can nodded seriously, "After all, when I took you to the master's house, I had not been in the master's house for a long time." After speaking, he leisurely picked up the teapot to refill the tea.

"Wen Can." Wen Xu hooked his fingers, motioning for him to come closer and speak, "Ming people don't speak in secret, are you interested in taking over the Wen family?"

Wen Can shook her hand, and the tea overflowed, "Ancestor, I will call you ancestor from now on. Believe it or not, if I call out today and I want to take over, the old lady will immediately tell me to go back the next day."

"Oh." Wen Xu sneered, held down the teapot, squeezed Wen Can's hand and lifted it up, "You fart."

"Yes, yes, I'm farting. I'll accept whatever you say." Wen Canhun didn't care. Didn't Wen Xu speak ill of him in the early years, and he was immune to even more exaggerated words, just a few words.

"Wen Can, do you really think that you can be as indifferent as her?" The strength in Wen Xu's hand gradually increased. Judging from the touch and pulsation under the hand, Wen Can's heart is not without fluctuations.After all, there are some things, it's one thing to know, but it's another thing to have turmoil in your heart, "You already knew that she was going to hand over the Wen family to me, didn't you?"

Wen Can has made a lot of money, it's okay, but if you can't resist it, then hold on.

"I was the one who picked you up back then. I do know the old lady's intentions." In fact, Wen Can's connivance with Wen Xu was not out of awe of the heir, but out of guilt.Taking advantage of people's dangers and forcibly taking the child away from a mother, no matter whether Wen Honghan or Wen Can's deceased father knew about this matter, they would jump out of the coffin in anger and clean him up.

"Wen Can, do you want to see the Wen family fall with your own eyes?" Wen Xu's eyes became dangerous. Once he became extreme, he was far better than his father. This is inseparable from his childhood experience, and Wen Can is very clear .

"Although you lose, I lose if you lose." Wen Can's eyes were full of seriousness, and the old lady handed over the side branch to him, to put it bluntly, to provide insurance for the Wen family.The old lady was too conceited back then, suffered a loss from her own son, and underestimated the enemy and lost Wen Xu's move. After calming down for so many years, she has become much more cautious.

Wen Xu could only feel a ball of anger rising from his heart, getting hotter and hotter, ready to erupt at any time.

"So you plan to keep helping the evildoers continue, so who will compensate for my loss? You?" Wen Xu's hand suddenly loosened, and Wen Can's wrist slapped on the table.

"Take it easy, I'm also at the age of health preservation, you should be a little respectful anyway." Wen Can retracted her hand and rubbed it aggrieved, "I really wonder if you also have a problem with glandular hormones, look You don't look like a Beta."

"Get out, stepping on my thunder at this time is the stupidest choice." Wen Xu picked up the teacup and took a sip. It was really wise to come to the teahouse to talk to Wen Can. There was no other reason to get angry.

"I don't think we have anything to talk about. I will help you as much as possible, and I will do my best to compensate you, but it is absolutely impossible to betray the old lady." Wen Can spread his hands, and the two sides have been fighting for so many years, isn't it because they are holding their breath , as a half-bystander, he still doesn't know.

"Help me as much as possible, and make up for me." Wen Xu heard what he wanted to hear, and smiled softly, "Your limit is only on the verge of betrayal."

"I didn't say that, don't misinterpret my meaning." As soon as Wen Can heard it, she knew that Wen Xu was playing tricks on him again, so she just shut up now.

"Then what did you tell my mother?" Wen Xu made a big circle, and finally led Wen Can to the deep trap dug under the hay.

"..." Oops, he shouldn't have sent a message to his sister-in-law in a flash of his brain.Wen Can can't wait to slap her. This kid Wen Xu was waiting for him.

"You took the initiative to contact my mother on your own initiative. She didn't respond now, but it doesn't mean she didn't respond later." Wen Xu pressed Wen Can's hand tightly, the veins on the back of his hand were clearly visible due to the force, "You promised not to go back then Did you get rid of the words you said to bother my mother with the rice, Wen Can."

Wen Can raised his hand that was still free, raised it over his head, and surrendered, "I won't bother you anymore. You are determined not to go to the family banquet. It's useless for the old lady to invite you over. I'll shut up."

"I will implement this without you saying it." Wen Xu still pressed Wen Can, motioning him to continue.

"I will guard you strictly about Jiang Chi's matter. Apart from me, no one in the Wen family will know about it."

With Wen Can's negative attitude, Wen Xu's patience is also slowly wearing down. It is this temper that is very annoying, "There is more."

"Old lady, I can't persuade you, and I can't talk to you. As long as I know about it, I will inform you, okay?" Wen Can sighed. It's better not to fall, "But the old lady is starting to guard against me now, and I don't think I can help much."

"Then mobilize your people." Wen Xu knew that Wen Can would retaliate with this, "Don't think that I don't know that you have a nail in the master's house, you treat it like you are coaxing a three-year-old child."

"You don't even let go of my means to keep my job, be yourself, Wen Xu!" Wen Can's eyes widened, his expression unreasonable, does he know how difficult it is to put someone beside the suspicious old lady!

"I want to complete the journey that my father has not finished, and your help is indispensable in this process." Wen Xu let go of his strength, but put his hand on the back of Wen Can's hand, "You are the only cousin my father is close to."

Right in the heart, a one-hit lore.

Wen Can completely relaxed, and her sitting posture became much more natural, "You count me as dead."

"Otherwise, how can I be your cousin." Wen Xu smiled, knowing that he had succeeded, "You say yes, Uncle Tang."
