Chapter 76: This old man did it on purpose

"At the beginning, your grandfather and I had a dispute of spirits. I thought his approach was too radical. It would be easy to eat him like an elephant in one bite. Sure enough, disaster struck him not long after. It was destined that the Jiang family would suffer this disaster!"

Mr. Yu sighed, with a bit of sadness in his eyes. The Jiang family's situation is typical of the situation that is easy to break. As the saying goes, if a big tree attracts the wind, if it blocks the way of too many people, it is destined to fall.

"Grandpa Yu is right. My grandfather's character is indeed too strong. He figured it out later when he was on his deathbed, so he told me not to enter the stone gambling industry, but I broke this oath myself."

There was also a hint of pain on Jiang Ge's face. The thought flashed in his mind that his grandfather was struggling before his death. Who among the truly talented people would be willing to remain anonymous? They were all forced to do so.

He blocked people's way, and he didn't know how to restrain himself. The jade market is so big, it must be a struggle between dragon and tiger. It is obvious that the Jiang family lost in the end. The reason for the defeat was not lack of strength, but lack of human sophistication.

Since ancient times, all big families that can become bigger and stronger have a set of survival rules.

The facts of that year were so shrouded in mystery that even Grandpa was powerless and didn't even dare to have the slightest thought of revenge. He was very curious about who the other party was.

"Your Jiang family has been specializing in the industry of stone gambling since ancient times. You rely on this craft to make a living. You broke the habit because of the pressure of life. I believe your grandfather will not blame you."

Mr. Yu has become a mature man and is naturally aware of all social situations. How can young people remain anonymous and willing to be mediocre? It is rare for Jiang Ge to stick to his promise for so many years.

Suddenly his expression changed, "Your grandfather once said that jade contains a shocking secret."

"A shocking secret?"

Jiang Ge moved. Grandpa had never said this before. He quickly asked, "What is it?"

He vaguely felt that maybe this was the key to the Jiang family's experiences over the years. Grandpa's vague words about his parents seemed to mean something.

"I don't know either, you need to find it!"

Mr. Yu shook his head and turned to look at his son and daughter-in-law. "Why are you still standing there? Hurry and prepare the food. Xiao Jiang finally got here. How can he do it without having a family banquet?"

"Yes, Dad, I'll get ready right away."

The two couples quickly turned around to prepare the meal, while Mr. Yu led Jiang Ge into the inner room.

The Yu family's house is neither big nor small. It is located in the commercial district of the old street. There are shops in the front and a living area in the back. The entire 300-square-meter house belongs to the Yu family and has three floors. The first floor is the shop and lobby.

There is a garden and a swimming pool, and a large room at the back is the temporary handicraft workshop of the Yu family.

It's a place where art is passed on.

Jiang Ge even saw a vegetable plot of dozens of square meters in an open space in the southeast corner, with peppers, tomatoes and other vegetables growing on it.

"This is a small piece of land that I usually cultivate. The Yu family came from the countryside before and have always had this tradition of farming. Even in big cities, you have to swing a hoe a few times to remind future generations not to forget their roots."

"I really like this piece of land. If I have nothing to do, I can swing the hoe a few times and I can always find the feeling I had when I was working hard."

Mr. Yu smiled and took Jiang Ge to the vegetable field, picked up the hoe and started weeding with extremely skillful movements.

The corn kernels next to it were a little funny, so he explained, "Grandpa is like this. He still can't forget these things when he gets old. We all tried to persuade him not to do it, but he didn't listen."

"But I think Grandpa Yu has a good habit. He hoeing at noon and dripping with sweat on the soil. These habits can make people know that happiness is hard-won. This is inseparable from the fact that the old man is in such good health."

Jiang Ge smiled and knelt down to pull up the weeds in the ground.

"You see, Xiao Jiang still has an idea and can see through the mystery at a glance. Nowadays, young people are too lazy and don't know where the grain comes from."

Hearing Jiang Ge's words, Mr. Yu smiled, then looked at his granddaughter and said, "You are all young people and you should have more contact with each other and learn from each other."

Corn Kernel turned her head away, as if she didn't take her grandfather's words seriously. In her opinion, Jiang Ge had nothing to learn from, it was all a failure experience.

A failed marriage, a failed family, it is better to stay away from this kind of man.

In this way, Jiang Ge accompanied the old man to work in the fields all afternoon. He was so tired that his back ached, but he did not dare to complain, because Mr. Yu also worked with him all afternoon, and no one said anything. How could he, a young man,

I can say I'm tired.

"This old man won't deliberately mess with me, right?"

"No, I can't let him see my emotions. It's nothing."

He gritted his teeth and continued to insist. Speaking of which, it was also his first time doing farm work. He had seen it before when he went back to his parents' home with his mother, but this was the first time he did it himself.

"Hey, Xiaojiang, pull out the weeds over there and pour some water. If there is fertilizer in the corner over there, you can use it and spread it too!"

"Okay, no problem."

I don’t know if the old man did it on purpose or not, but he arranged a lot of work for him. The corn kernels next to him laughed crookedly, laughing at Jiang Ge’s embarrassment.

At this time, Mr. Yu turned his head coldly, "Why are you still standing there? Do you really think you are the eldest lady? Hurry up and finish the land together, and we will open a piece next to it tomorrow."

"A piece of land is still open?" Corn Kernel was a little surprised, but he had to work together, and soon his black casual clothes were filled with soil.

"Dad, the meal is ready, it's time to start eating!"

At this moment, Yu Chuanfeng came over and informed everyone to eat.

When he saw the appearance of these people, he almost laughed out loud, and quickly complained, "Dad, you are going too far. It is really inappropriate for Xiao Jiang to do this just after he finally came to your house."

"Is there anything inappropriate? I treat him like this as a family member. If he were a guest, I would have taken care of him long ago." Mr. Yu wiped his sweat with his hoe and said, "Okay, everyone has worked hard today. Let's eat.

Bar."

Jiang Ge and Corn Kernel both breathed a sigh of relief.

"Uncle, don't worry. The old man is right. You treat me like a family member. It's not too late for me to be happy."

Jiang Ge also wiped his sweat and understood this truth in his heart.

Although the old man did not play according to common sense, his starting point was okay.

"Let's go, stop inking, quickly change your clothes and eat." The old man put down the hoe and then remembered that Jiang Ge didn't bring any clothes.

Then he turned around and said, "Let him wear the Chinese tunic suit I wore when I was young!"

"ah…"

Yu Chuanfeng and Corn Kernel looked at each other, both a little shocked. This tunic suit was Grandpa's favorite and they were reluctant to wear it. They only wore it a few times before they knew how much the old man valued Jiang Ge.

"Okay, Dad!"

Yu Chuanfeng nodded and hurried back to get his clothes.

Soon Jiang Ge, wearing a Chinese tunic suit, walked out, and the eyes of everyone sitting at the table in the hall lit up.

"This outfit suits Jiang Ge very well. I didn't expect that the old man's clothes suit him so well."

Yu Chuanfeng was a little emotional.

At this time, Jiang Ge had just taken a shower. He had short to medium hair and a hard face like a knife. He looked pleasing to the eye no matter how well he matched his lean body.
