Dragon Hidden in Flowers
Chen Qirui and Chen Guang returned empty-handed, while Ma Tianxiong swaggered away to the Di family's residence. When he left, however, he was a defeated rooster. Before leaving, Chen Qirui said that they would reserve the right to pursue responsibility for this matter, and after finding out the "truth" from Ma Tianxiong and his son Ma Ding, they would come to visit the Di family again.
Of course, this is just a facade. With the current strength and status of the Chen family, if they really want to do something, where would they need the truth? But this time, even with reason on their side, they became unreasonable and lost face. They can't use Ma Tianxiong and Ma Ding's affairs to attack the Di family now. If things escalate, the Ma father-son duo will definitely be finished. Even if they manage to harm the Di family, the Chen family themselves will suffer from the consequences of the Ma father-son duo's actions, greatly damaging their reputation. This would not be worth it for them, considering the official reputation they have accumulated with great difficulty.
Ma Jia father and son are what kind of people, no need to ask Di Yu they themselves are very clear. But there is no way, Chen Qirui handling this matter in addition to considering the overall situation, also have to consider sister Chen Jiao Jiao, Di family and Chen family fire fight results, first of all is Ma Jia father and son fell into it.
Di Zhen Guo put down his teacup, walked to Di Yu's front, smiled and said: "Tiger boy, I heard from your third uncle that you've been doing well in the army recently. Have you ever thought of coming back to help your dad at the company? Your second aunt and uncle are easy-going, but they left so many things for me and your fourth uncle to deal with."
Di Zhen Guo and He Su Yun went traveling, the entire Hua Bai Group relied on Eldest Brother Di Zhen Bang and Fourth Brother Di Zhen Min.
Di Yu smiled and said: "Big Uncle, I'm a lazy person who doesn't understand business matters. I just follow Third Uncle in the army to pass the time."
Di Zhenbang nodded and said, "It's good to go to the army for training too. The army is the foundation of our Di family after all. In the future, our Di family will rely on you! Your two older cousins are far inferior to you, Hu'er."
"Great Uncle praised. By the way, when is Brother Zhitang coming back home? I've been back for so long and still haven't seen him yet." Di Yu asked, Di Zhenbang had another son named Di Zhi, Di Yu had been back for several months but still hadn't seen him.
"Hehe, Zhi'er is still studying in M country." Di Zhenbang chuckled and said: "You'd better go see the old man, he was muttering about you this morning, saying you're busy but don't go see him, idle but also don't go see him! Haha, I'm telling you, if you don't go, the old man will have to go out and find you!"
"Alright, I'll go now." Di Yu still somewhat missed Old Master's profound and unpredictable way of speaking. Last time he helped the Qin family, it was Old Master who spoke on his behalf, so he didn't receive too much blame from Di Zhenbang and Di Zhenmin.
In the garden, Old Master was lying on a chair, dozing off with his eyes closed. Wang Jianming, the captain of the Di Manor's guard, stood not far away, watching over him. Seeing Di Yu approaching, he bowed his head and whispered something in Old Master's ear. Old Master opened his eyes, saw Di Yu, smiled slightly, and instructed: "Get a chair for Hu'er..."
"It's all right, Grandpa!" Di Yu walked over to the old man and sat down beside him on the grass.
The old man smiled and said: "Have those two people from the Chen family been sent away?
Di Yu nodded and said: "I sent them away, but it seems that I've caused trouble for Grandfather again this time?"
"Haha, it's okay." The old man laughed heartily and waved his hand, saying: "The troubles of the Di family have never stopped, and I've never been afraid of any trouble. Your dad and your eldest uncle were very mischievous when they were young, always causing me trouble every other day, and their relationship was not good at all. Sometimes they would fight ten or more times a day, and no matter how much I tried to persuade them, they wouldn't listen. Hehe, it went on until they each got married, but aren't their relationships good now?"
Di Yu had never heard of his father's past before and curiously asked: "Dad and Uncle were really that mischievous when they were young?"
The old man stroked Di Yu's head with a kind smile and said, "No matter how much trouble they caused when they were young, now they are very good. Do you know why?"
Di Yu shook his head, but in his heart he was crystal clear that Old Master was going to give him another lecture.
"One day they finally understood the truth of 'brothers united can cut through metal'. At that time, it was still during the reform and opening-up period, I went to Vietnam for a trip, and ended up staying for two years! During those two years, I didn't send them a single letter, nor did I ask any relatives or friends to take care of them. In those two years, they finally learned what it means for brothers to live in harmony."
"Then what happened?"
"What happened later? Haha, after I retired and founded the Huabai Group, in the face of huge interests, the brotherly love they had established before was broken again. So I called back Old Three, who had just become a regimental commander, and pretended to be seriously ill, letting them fight each other. Guess what happened?"
The old man talked about these things, his face flushed with excitement, as if he was recounting his own exploits. Di Yu was also quite curious, never expecting that beneath the surface of the Di family's splendor lay such interesting stories, only this time he didn't know what lesson Grandfather had taught his uncles again.
"What's the result?" Di Yu asked in coordination.
"As a result, the Huabai Group was torn apart and the country no longer supported us! Because Lao San abandoned his military post to do business, the Di family lost its status in the military and also severed ties with the country!" The old man looked at Di Yu with interest, smiling slightly.
Di Yu suddenly realized: "I think that should be a trap set by Grandpa and Third Uncle!"
It's not hard to guess with Diya's current stability.
"Haha, you're absolutely right! I deliberately let Lao San leave the army and also didn't allow the country to continue supporting the Di family. Without the military status and influence, without the country's support, Huabai Group would have no reason to exist." The old man suddenly became serious, his face full of solemnity.
"What does Grandpa mean?" Di Yu asked.
At this time, the old man suddenly stood up with his cane and said lightly: "I want them to understand that 'every Di family member must take the interests of the Di family as the highest interest, and the Di family must take the interests of the country as the highest interest'. Those who do not understand this principle are not worthy of being a Di family descendant!"
Every Di family member must put the interests of the Di family above all else, and the Di family must put the interests of the country above all else!
Di Yu suddenly understood the old man's kindness, he had always been puzzled as to why so many people in the Di family still had such strong cohesion in the face of huge interests. Just like today, Di Zhenbang didn't say anything, but it was clear that he was standing on Di Yu's side, and Di Zhenbang's son, Di Wei, was a medical student. Last time Jie Shibang came to the Di family, Di Wei wanted to ask him some medical questions, hoping Di Yu would help him out, but Di Yu was worried about his mother's old illness at the time and had a very cold attitude. Di Zhenbang had been holding a grudge against Di Yu for this matter, and on top of that, he was still resentful about helping the Qin family last time.
Even so, Di Zhenbang still sat on the stone bench in the living room as a steady guest when facing external enemies like Chen Jia.
"I heard there's some unpleasantness between you and Wei Er?" The old man suddenly looked at Di Yu.
Di Yu is a clever person and very clever, nodded: "Grandpa rest assured, I will go to Wei Tang Ge's side later."
"Hmm." The old man smiled with great satisfaction.
Di Yu really admired the old master this time, over 80 years old, but his mind was as clear as a mirror, never leaving the Di Gongguan, but nothing inside or outside the mansion could escape his eyes. What is called "plotting in secret, winning a thousand miles away", this is it.
After all these days of events, Di Yu finally has a bit of the flavor of being a young master of the Di family.
The old man is trying to reconcile the relationship between Di Yu and Di Wei, just like when he left home years ago, using the method of "breaking before standing" to make Di Zhenbang and his brothers friendly and respectful. These are all extreme measures that require careful consideration before being used.
Di Yu was lectured by Lao Yezi today and took it as a lesson. He is not inferior to anyone in playing tricks and conspiracies, but he is still far from enough in playing open and honest strategies.
Di Yu left the old master's residence and went to Di Zhenbang's villa with the two bottles of fine wine that the old master had given him.
When Di Yu came to the door, Di Zhenbang was slightly surprised and then smiled and welcomed him in, asking: "Have you seen the old man?"
"Great Uncle, I brought this red wine from Old Master, he said you like it, so I'm borrowing flowers to offer Buddha." Di Yu handed the fine wine to Di Zhenbang and smiled: "I came today to apologize to Wei Tangge!"
"Apologize?!" Di Zhenbang was taken aback: "What apologize for?"
Di Yu didn't answer, instead he looked around and asked: "Isn't Wei Tangge here? I'd rather talk to him in person."
"Alright! I'll go call him, you sit for a while." Di Zhenbang personally went to call Di Wei, also leaving alone to give the two brothers an opportunity to talk.
Di Wei heard Di Yu come to his door and felt a sense of curiosity, wondering what Di Yu wanted at this time.
"Third Brother Hu!" Di Wei called out.
"Hey Wei Tang Ge, I've been really busy lately and haven't had a chance to come over and chat with you." Di Yu said with a smile.
Di Wei still felt a bit uneasy in his heart, it was about the matter of Jie Shi Bang last time. As brothers of the Di family, Di Yu's attitude was too cold at that time, and there had been a knot in his heart ever since. If it were an ordinary family, they could have made a scene or something, and as brothers, they could have also talked openly about it. But being in the Di family, if he were to make a big fuss, it wouldn't just affect him and Di Yu, but would also cause trouble for their parents.
Di Yu nodded secretly in his heart. The old master only asked him about the conflict between him and Di Wei, but not about the conflict between him and Di Lin. The conflict between Di Yu and Di Lin was even deeper, but the old master didn't mention it at all. It can be seen that the old master's judgment of people is still very accurate. Although Di Wei's medical skills haven't made a great contribution to the Di family, he understands that he is a member of the Di family. Di Lin may have some talent in business, but he doesn't understand this principle and will never gain the old master's approval.
Today, Lao Ye's words are meant to teach Di Yu this principle.
"What did you want to talk to me about?" Di Wei asked curiously as he looked at him.
Di Yu smiled and said, "Ever since I returned to the Di family, it's been really busy. Originally, after curing my mother's eyes, I should have apologized to you, but this period of time in the military was just too busy! Last time with Dr. Jie Shi Bang, as a brother, I didn't do well, today I came specifically to say sorry."
Di Wei smiled awkwardly and said: "It's been so long since it happened, I've already forgotten."
"Is Brother Wei saying that he is unwilling to forgive me? I came with sincerity this time, and I was going to ask my friend to contact the Y royal family on your behalf. If Brother Wei is willing, I can recommend you to study at their Royal Medical Academy for a period of time under the guidance of Dr. Jiersibang!"
"What!!" Di Wei suddenly stood up from the sofa!
