The Magnificent Son-in-law
Chapter 1215 - 1215: The Incredibly Lavish Wei Jianhua
"What exactly does Brother Wei need to help with? Brother Xiao hasn't mentioned it," Xiao Feng said with a smile. "Brother Xiao always treats people kindly and has never sought repayment for favors."
"That's right!" Pei Dengke stated solemnly, "I can vouch for that.
Before I met Brother Xiao, I'd only seen such a person in literary works—honest, kind, magnanimous, and never confined by trivial matters.
If I were to describe him, the phrase 'righteousness to the clouds' would be his best alias!"
Wei Jianhua naturally couldn't believe so easily, but thinking of his own issues, he still said, "Brother Xiao, please pass a message to Brother Xiao Feng.
Tell him that if there's anything within my power, I absolutely won't refuse to help!"
Xiao Feng nodded in agreement, "I'll definitely relay the message."
After speaking, he sighed, "Alas... Brother Xiao has helped so many people selflessly and never asked for anything in return. Sometimes, I can't bear to watch, and truly don't know what he's thinking."
Upon hearing this, Wei Jianhua couldn't help but feel uneasy, suspecting Xiao Feng might be hinting at him.
Pei Dengke nodded in agreement, appearing to share the same sentiment.
Regarding Xiao Feng, would he blush from praising himself so earnestly?
The answer was clearly—yes!
And he was already blushing deeply, though with a mask on, it wasn't visible.
Of course, the true intent of his self-praise wasn't to imply Wei Jianhua should offer benefits, but to lay the groundwork for what comes next...
Xiao Feng continued, "I've suddenly thought of something where Brother Wei might be able to help.
However, considering Brother Xiao's character, he definitely wouldn't ask you for help."
"Please speak, Brother Xiao," Wei Jianhua gestured.
Xiao Feng frowned, "Recently, many people from Kyoto have been going to Jiangcheng, stirring up trouble everywhere, causing trouble for Brother Xiao, and he can't figure out who is behind it.
If Brother Wei can find out some information, it could certainly improve Brother Xiao's mood..."
"Understood!" Wei Jianhua nodded decisively, "I'll arrange for people to handle it immediately, and I'll personally deliver the list to Brother Xiao."
To him, this matter was not difficult at all.
However, based on the principle of less is more, he added, "Brother Xiao, please keep this matter confidential.
Given that the Wei family is rooted in Kyoto, if it gets found out that I'm involved, people might criticize us for being traitorous and accuse me of favoring outsiders over family."
"There's no need for Brother Wei to remind me, as I definitely will keep it confidential," Xiao Feng said with a smile. "Speaking of which, I remembered this: Brother Wei should also keep the relationship between me and Brother Xiao confidential.
Publicly, I am from Jiuyou Town and have good relations with Dengke."
"No problem!" Wei Jianhua readily agreed.
After finishing their discussion, the three continued drinking.
Upon sending Xiao Feng off, Wei Jianhua displayed exceptional generosity by gifting Xiao Feng and Pei Dengke each a gold brick. Weighing ten kilograms, based on the current price per gram, it was worth at least 1.8 million.
He also reminded Xiao Feng to keep an eye out for treatment plans.
Cradling the gold brick, Xiao Feng repeatedly assured him that he would treat it as the most pressing matter.
After they left, Wei Jianhua summoned Fast Blade King and instructed, "Tomorrow morning, go to Jiangcheng personally with ten gold bricks and visit Xiao Feng.
Once you arrive, just say I'll find time to visit personally; no need to say anything else—just leave the gold bricks and go!"
"Ten gold bricks?" Fast Blade King was startled. "Master, that's nearly two million!"
"I'm naturally aware, but if the matter gets resolved, even another ten bricks would be worth it!"
Seeing Wei Jianhua's confidence, Fast Blade King was puzzled and tentatively asked, "Master, may I ask why you're gifting such heavy presents to Xiao Feng?"
"It's not the time to explain; just know that the ten gold bricks won't be given in vain, and that's enough for now," Wei Jianhua exhaled and said, "Later, if my father asks, just answer as I've instructed."
Gift-giving to Xiao Feng was a decision Wei Jianhua made after careful consideration.
He could sense Xiao Bajia's genuine admiration for Xiao Feng without any falseness.
This means ensuring Xiao Feng's satisfaction is more important than Xiao Bajia's!
Moreover, if the ten bricks were given to Xiao Bajia, the temptation might be too strong, leading him to "escape with the brick."
But gifting them to Xiao Feng eliminates such worries.
...
In Jiangcheng, Jinyue Garden Villa District.
A young girl in an off-white down jacket squatted in front of Little Fragrance Bead's castle, cradling her rosy cheeks and said, "Little Fragrance Bead, Little Fragrance Bead, why haven't you hatched the baby yet?
Are you in a bad mood, or is it not time?
If you're in a bad mood, I can sing a song for you..."
Not far away, in the middle of the yard, Lu Yao and Jiang Yixin, witnessing this scene, couldn't help but chuckle.
"She truly never gets bored," Jiang Yixin said admiringly.
"You're mistaken; it's precisely because she's bored that she acts this way," Lu Yao replied with a smile. "Haven't you noticed?
Since Brother Yanhuang left, Shihan seems like a different person, much more well-behaved than before."
Jiang Yixin nodded, "Indeed, these past days, she hasn't picked a fight with me."
Just then, a thirty-something middle-aged man in a brown coat appeared outside the fence gate.
"Excuse me, does Xiao Feng live here?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the little girl singing to Little Fragrance Bead immediately stood up and trotted to the gate, asking, "Who are you? Do you have business with my Brother Xiao Feng?"
"I'm from Kyoto. My young master asked me to deliver something to Boss Xiao," the middle-aged man replied courteously, gesturing with the case in his hand.
This person was naturally Fast Blade King.
Lu Yao and Jiang Yixin exchanged glances and stepped towards the gate.
"May I ask who your young master is?" Lu Yao queried.
"Wei Jianhua," Fast Blade King answered.
The young girl frowned for a moment, then turned to Lu Yao and asked, "Lu Yao, have you heard of this person?"
Lu Yao shook her head and addressed Fast Blade King, "He's not here at the moment; perhaps you can leave a contact, and when he returns, he can call you."
Fast Blade King frowned, "My young master instructed me to deliver the items to Boss Xiao personally.
May I know where Boss Xiao has gone?
When will he return?"
This polite yet straightforward query immediately aroused suspicion among the three women inside.
Jiang Yixin replied with what Xiao Feng had instructed her to say, scoffing, "He's quite the playboy, having a lot at home while courting outside.
Do you think he'd honestly tell us his whereabouts?"
Hearing this, the young girl became unhappy, standing defiantly and said, "Pah!
How is my Brother Xiao Feng a playboy, courting everywhere? What's your evidence?"
