Chapter 1192: Chapter 1065: Talented Singer-Songwriter

Early in the morning, Zhou Xiaozheng woke up with a trailing shadow behind him, and it was a very charming and pleasing big shadow.

As soon as he was about to get out of bed, his slippers were already placed nearby...

When he wanted to brush his teeth, the toothpaste was already squeezed onto his toothbrush...

He wanted...

In short, Zhou Xiaozheng felt like he had seen it all.

—This mischievous kid has no limits, he even followed me into the bathroom.

"Not going to speak up, huh? Then I’m off to work."

May 1st rubbed his head, "Hehe... Grandpa, who do you think you are fooling? How could Grandpa not figure out your grandson’s little schemes?"

"Hehe, eavesdropped yesterday?"

May 1st rolled his eyes, "No, just happened to overhear when passing by the study room."

Zhou Xiaozheng pointed at him speechlessly with his finger... "Among you three brothers, only one can go!"

May 1st immediately pounded his chest, "I’ll represent us."

"Aren’t you afraid of the two of them teaming up to beat you?"

May 1st looked at him surprised, "How could that be possible? I’m the youngest in the family, so small and weak, aren’t you all supposed to protect and spoil me?"

Zhou Xiaozheng finally experienced Ping’an’s helplessness. No wonder even Liu Yi often responded with a "hehe" laugh. Apparently, his little grandson had taken shamelessness to the extreme...

"Your buddies don’t want to put you in a sack secretly?"

May 1st blinked, "They’re afraid I’d retaliate."

"Hahaha... Not bad, at least you have some self-awareness."

"Saying this, you agree?" May 1st blinked his eyes, looking at him expectantly.

Zhou Xiaozheng glanced at him sideways, "You and your grandma can only watch, not talk much when you get there. If you have any questions, you have to keep them to yourself, can you do that?"

May 1st immediately stood straight, legs stiffened, and gave a standard military salute with a stern expression, loudly declaring, "Yes, I guarantee to complete the mission!"

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaozheng’s eye twitched and he quickly turned away. If it was someone else, he would have chased them away with a stick long ago.

Old Beijing City has always had the saying "East is rich, West is noble, South is poor, North is cheap."

With the Miao Family’s assets secretly owning a courtyard was no surprise at all. This meeting was scheduled at a courtyard deep inside an alley in West City.

This afternoon, the old servant left his two foreign bodyguards at the Beijing Hotel and brought along Lei Tianming to wait here.

Miao Lishan and May 1st’s grandparents arrived at about two in the afternoon, at this time, snowflakes were falling from the sky, and along the alley one could see children playing snow battles.

"Aunt, over here."

With Lei Tianming’s voice, as the door was pushed open, an old man wearing a black wool coat stood amidst snowflakes, looking chaotic in black and white in the courtyard...

Once the door closed, the previously stunned old man immediately stepped forward, and when five steps away from Miao Lishan, knelt down and kowtowed.

He then looked up with teary old eyes at Miao Lishan, "Miss, Miss, I can finally, finally see you."

Miao Lishan was taken aback by this fluent sequence of actions.

Except for her own grandson paying respects during New Year’s, she had never seen anyone kneel and kowtow to her before even speaking, let alone someone elderly, who was trembling from the cold, unable to complete a sentence.

She hurriedly stepped forward to support him, "Elder, let’s talk after you get up, get up first."

May 1st raised his brows at the scene. Looks like his maternal great-grandmother had some tricks up her sleeve. After all these years, she could still leave such feelings that someone performs ancient rituals to her, not bad!

Once in the living room, the old servant stood in front of Miao Lishan, refusing to sit. According to him, he didn’t like sitting, standing was fine.

In the end, it was May 1st who reminded him that there were no outsiders here, sitting made for better communication. This time, the old man respectfully half sat on the lower bench.

Lei Tianming, having seen the stubbornness of the old servant before, wasn’t too surprised. Back then, he was almost scared into fleeing.

Miao Lishan opened her mouth but found herself unsure how to address the person?

Having been a servant for so many years, the elderly Gao Fu knew exactly how to read the room, he immediately said, "Miss, just call me Ah Fu. I took my wife’s surname Gao, back then she said giving me the name Fu would bring prosperity following the Third Young Master. Hahaha, madam was certainly prophetic."

May 1st, hearing this, lamented that this was the loyal servant his father talked about. How wonderful it’d be if their family had one.

Miao Lishan breathed a sigh of relief while feeling some amusement.

Her birth mother preferred to follow the surname of her adoptive father Gao, how much did she have to dislike the surname of Gu Family? Yet back then she still let herself grow up under Gu Ruyi.

Alas... once a person dies, it’s all over, better not to mention anymore.

She looked at the elder with gentle eyes, "Uncle Fu, thank you for your arduous journey."

Gao Fu waved his hand repeatedly, "It’s not hard! Not hard! To be able to see Miss in my lifetime is enough satisfaction. I’ll even dare to see Madam afterwards."

Seeing them engaged in conversation, Lei Tianming nudged May 1st, signaling he would head outside.

May 1st, understanding he wanted to avoid suspicion, pulled his hand slightly and shook his head.

People’s hearts are hard to gauge, he trusts Lei Tianming’s character, but other Miao Family members, hehe... better not. When they return, it’s inevitable someone will bring up this meeting.

Once the Miao Family learns that the old servant and his grandmother have spent much time alone, it’s possible someone’s ugly suspicions might arise, thinking the old servant transferred some property from the original owner.

Though the Miao Family still appears to have the three brothers heading the households, the future is uncertain. He had to be prepared.

Seeing the elder give him a gratified glance when noticing his actions, May 1st knew there was no hiding. However, he didn’t intend to conceal anything originally.

Miao Family?

Truthfully, he looked down upon them!

If not for matters related to his grandmother, and his sincere uncle, no matter how wealthy the Miao Family was, what counted against the Zhou Family’s name!

"Miss, for your trouble, the legitimate Miao Family members cannot acknowledge you. Before coming, your three older brothers asked me to convey, ’the Miao Family gates will always be open for you. No matter when, no matter what status, you are always Miss of the Miao Family.’

Third Young Master also hinted to me. Though it’s not feasible to make your identity public, everyone in the family knows about a maternal aunt in the Miao Family. He assures you that once you encounter danger, the family will send someone to lead you away."

May 1st’s eyes flashed upon hearing this.

Miao Lishan sighed softly, "Alas... what could happen to me? Let them take good care of their health. If the fates allow, we shall meet in this lifetime."

"Alright, I’ll surely bring these words to make them happy."

The old servant stood up, taking out a document bag from the side, pulled out a large brown envelope, and handed it to her, "Miss, this is a list of properties under your name."

Miao Lishan quickly waved her hand to refuse, "Take it back! I know a bit about the events back then; the Miao Family inheritance should only go to the three older brothers."
