The Wealthy Son-in-law Is Back

This sentence caused Xiao Tian to fall silent.    

Chen Mengyao hurriedly explained, "Aunt, Xiao Tian is very good to me. Don't worry, he won't bully me!"    

"Is that so?"    

Zhou Shuyuan said, "That's good. But remember what Aunt said. When a woman is at home, she must firmly control the money bag. That way, he won't be able to do anything."    

"Yes, I'll remember that!"    

Chen Mengyao nodded, but she could not help but smile bitterly in her heart. How could she control it? Xiao Tian had so much money, how could she control it?    

After dinner, Zhou Shuyuan pulled Chen Mengyao away to whisper to her.    

Xiao Kedi also had work to do, so he left in a hurry.    

He was the commander of the Southern Region, so he rarely had time to come back. This time, it was Xiao Tian and Chen Mengyao's first time coming back, so he suppressed military affairs and ate with them.    

Only the old man and Xiao Tian were left in the courtyard.    

The old man sat on a rocking chair. Beside him was an old radio which was playing the Beijing opera. The old man shook his head as he listened.    

This place looked like a military chief. This was clearly an old man from an ordinary family.    

Xiao Tian sat down and boiled water to make tea.    

The old man picked it up and took a sip. " Mm, not bad. The temperature is very good. It's better than your uncle making tea!"    

"I've told him many times. Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. Wait for a while more when making tea. Let the tea leaves be completely thrown away. The tea fragrance completely seeped into the tea leaves before pouring tea again. He can't remember it every time!"    

Speaking up to this point, he paused for a moment and raised his somewhat droopy eyelids. Then, he carefully sized up Xiao Tian.    

Looking at the face that was similar to his own daughter's, he also sighed with emotion. "You really are like your mother. Just now, I didn't dare to look at you closely because I was afraid that it would hurt my feelings."    

There was a trace of sadness in the old man's eyes. Even though more than ten years had passed, he still missed his daughter more and more.    

Now that he saw Xiao Tian, he couldn't help but shed tears. When Xiao Tian looked over, he already had tears flowing down his face.    

"Why did you do nothing back then?"    

Xiao Tian put down the teacup, and a trace of pain flashed across his eyes.    

"Too stubborn, too anxious. Your mother has the same temper as your uncle. If she listened to me back then, why did she have to be like this?"    

Back then, he did not agree with Xiao Hong and Dugu Sheng's marriage at all.    

He was the daughter of the commander of the Southern Region. If this were to spread out, where would the face of Xiao family be put?    

Naturally, he wouldn't agree to it.    

However, Xiao Hong dared to love and hate. Xiao Hong, who grew up in the military compound, had a straightforward personality. Since her family did not agree, she stole her household register and secretly married Dugu Sheng.    

After Old Man Xiao knew about this matter, he flew into a rage and threatened to kill Dugu Sheng.    

At that time, the Dugu family was still one of the three big noble families in Yanjing.    

It was just an ordinary second-rate family. It was just that he had taken a fancy to the Xiao family and wanted to seize the opportunity to rise.    

But Xiao Hong's eyes were blinded by love at that time, and she plunged headfirst into it.    

Old Man Xiao was so angry that he wanted to cut off the relationship between Xiao Hong and his father. So, before Xiao Tian could remember anything, Xiao Hong had never contacted the Xiao family.    

It was only when Xiao Tian was born that Old Man Xiao gradually accepted this fact.    

However, Xiao Hong and Dugu Sheng's marriage had never been carried out because Old Man Xiao did not accept Dugu Sheng. He knew that Dugu Sheng was using his daughter, so he did not plan to make a move.    

The stubborn Xiao Hong established the Tianhong Group in that year. Within that year, she relied on her own ability to turn the Tianhong Group into a big business and then gave it back to the Dugu family.    

That year, Xiao Hong overworked and fell ill!    

Xiao Hong did not have a good life in the Dugu family. She was rejected by Dugu Sheng's ex-wife and son and was rejected by the old master of the Dugu family.    

There was also the branch family. At that time, Dugu Sheng had just taken the position of patriarch. His position was unstable, and he did not have anyone he could use.    

He could only allow Xiao Hong to be bullied.    

Old Man Xiao had always known, and even later on, he gave in.    

There were parents everywhere in the world.    

Seeing his daughter like this, his heart ached.    

He had asked Xiao Hong to come back, but she was Xiao Hong because she dared to love and hate. No one could change the things that she had decided on!    

Later on, the matter became more and more rigid. In the end, Old Man Xiao was so angry that he completely ignored it.    

It was also that year when Xiao Tian did not come here during the summer vacation.    

In order to protect his position as the family head, Dugu Sheng discussed with Xiao Hong about merging the Tianhong Group, and Xiao Hong agreed.    

However, she still kept a mind of her own. Nominally merging with the ___, the shares were still Xiao Hong's.    

Furthermore, all the shares had been transferred to Xiao Tian by Xiao Hong.    

This was also the reason why Xiao Tian was so angry when Yang Cheng came over that day.    

It was because the Tianhong Group originally belonged to him. It was only the Dugu family that stole it!    

In these twelve years, the Dugu family relied on the Tianhong Group to grow stronger, and gradually became one of the three great noble families in Yanjing!    

Dugu Sheng did not know about Xiao Hong's illness, and Xiao Tian only knew about it two months before Xiao Hong's death.    

Before her stubborn death, she told Xiao Tian, "In the future, if you rely on yourself, you must be an indomitable man!"    

Even if she died, it did not make him hate Dugu Sheng.    

She didn't make him hate Xiao family.    

Because Xiao Hong had once said, "This is the path she chose herself. She will bear the responsibility for both good and bad!"    

...    

Hearing the old man talk about the past, Xiao Tian's heart gradually became clear.    

This matter really couldn't be blamed on Xiao family.    

All of this was the Dugu family's fault!    

In fact, he knew it in his heart, but he just didn't want to believe it.    

Now that the Dugu family had received the retribution that they deserved, Dugu Sheng was destined to die alone.    

"Your mother is my eternal pain. No matter what I said back then, I will bring her back. Even if she hates me, it is still better than losing her life!"    

This was the eternal pain in the old man's heart, and it was also the first time he had spoken out his thoughts.    

He didn't want Xiao Tian to live with hatred and pain. The grudges from the previous generation were already enough, so he didn't want to continue.    

If he hadn't cared so much about his face back then, perhaps there wouldn't have been anything after that, so he blamed himself.    

"It's all in the past. Actually, I knew it long ago. It's just that I was unwilling to forgive!"    

When he said this, Xiao Tian felt his shoulders lighten up a lot, as if he had taken off a heavy burden.    

Previously, he had stubbornly trapped himself inside. Now that he came out, he felt as if he had been relieved of a heavy burden.    

"Grandpa, I'm sorry, I haven't come to see you all these years!"    

"Child, what did you call me?"    

The old man couldn't believe his ears!    

"Grandfather!"    

Xiao Tian said.    

"Good child, I thought I would never hear you call me that in my life!"    

The old man sat up excitedly.    

"It was my fault before. I'll come and see you when I have time in the future."    

Xiao Tian, who had removed his shackles, felt unprecedentedly relaxed. All his thoughts were now clear.    

He no longer cared about the hatred in the past and let himself go.    

"Good, good!"    

The old man held his hand, his eyes filled with excitement.    

When the old man calmed down, Xiao Tian told the old man about his recent situation.    

When the old man heard this, he was also very pleased, "Sometimes I feel vexed and shouldn't have let the old dragon take action, because that way, you wouldn't have to suffer so much!"    

"But looking at you now, I also feel that if I hadn't made this decision in the past, Northgard wouldn't have been so peaceful in the past two years. Now that you have broken through to the supreme stage, it is a good thing for everyone!"    

The old man's words startled Xiao Tian. He suddenly understood the meaning of Xiao Kedi's words.    

"Grandfather, it was you who took me away by my foster father..."    

"That's right!"    

"I sent someone to protect you in secret when you were expelled from my family. Otherwise, how could you, who has no money at all, end up in the Cloud City from the Yanjing? The distance between the two places is two thousand miles. "    

Xiao Tian was shocked in his heart. It turned out that the person he hated had been protecting him in secret!    

Indeed, if that was the case, everything could be figured out.    

After his mother died, the Dugu family started to devour the Tianhong Group's property, and he was expelled from the family during this war.    

He still had his elder brother above him, the so-called elder brother. He regarded him as his enemy, so how could he allow him to leave the Yanjing?    

However, he just had to leave. Along the way, besides constantly starving, he didn't encounter any danger at all.    

So... it was not that there was no danger. The danger had already been dealt with by the people sent by the old man to protect him.    

"You're still so young. I can't just let you live on the streets, right?"    

Old Man Xiao said, "I thought about it for a long time before I made this decision to let that old dragon accept you. Originally, he was unwilling, but when he pinched your bones and bones, it was as if he had obtained a treasure."    

"At that time, I knew that your future would definitely be extraordinary!"    

Xiao Tian did not say anything. After he was taken away by his foster father, in the first three years, what he experienced had far exceeded the imagination of ordinary people.    

Currently, the level of training in the Heavenly Wolf Team was less than 1% of what he had experienced in the past.    

It was only during those three years of hellish training that Xiao Tian had become today's Xiao Tian.    

After coming out of that small island, Xiao Tian joined the Northgard and fought on the battlefield as a soldier.    

No one knew that he was the adopted son of the Dragon King.    

In a short year, he was promoted from an unknown soldier to a lieutenant colonel.    

In the second year, he directly became a major general because of Xiao Yong's battle record!    

In the third year, the Northgard launched a large-scale invasion. It was Xiao Tian who repelled the invasion. In that battle, he became a lieutenant general!
