Zhang Sanfeng raised his eyebrows and said to him, "Have they come over here?"
"Yes," Uncle Qi nodded, "I haven’t had the chance to report to Mr. Xiao yet."
Recently, Xiao Yebai had been busy attending to his mother-in-law, father-in-law, and wife, so all the other miscellaneous tasks, including intelligence work, had been entrusted to this brother to manage.
Zhang Sanfeng looked around the estate and said, "This place, Mr. Xiao will definitely not open it to the public; it is private property."
"Yes, on this point, we have always strictly followed Mr. Xiao’s orders," Uncle Qi hesitated undoubtedly, those who came were Xiao Yebai’s family members, but did they count as outsiders?
"So, you don’t need to ask about this. If they want to see Mr. Xiao, they can only meet him outside this place. Mr. Xiao had already planned to bring his wife and father-in-law’s family here for a three-day vacation. During these three days, there is no need to put them through too much trouble."
Zhang Sanfeng’s tone was gentle, but his words gave no room for defiance.
Uncle Qi had only met him a few times, only a handful of times, but had quickly gotten a sense of his temperament and thus did not dare to say anything further, simply nodding and following his instructions.
Before long, Uncle Qi, the uncle responsible for setting up intelligence work for Xiao Yebai here, sent instructions to his subordinates to wait for three days.
These three days, for Xiao Shumei and the others who had arrived in the county city and had actually been there for more than three days, were truly another unbearable period.
A few days ago, when they had just arrived in the county by train and reached the location of Gu Nuan’s ancestral home they had inquired about, they did not rush to the Gu Family. Mainly because the news of the son-in-law visiting was spreading fast in this small area of the county, and soon reached their ears.
The crazy younger brother had indeed become an irresponsible shopkeeper, only focusing on having fun and hiding with his wife at her parents’ home.
Xiao Shumei, Xiao Shuju, and Xiao Shuzhu heard that Xiao Yebai, for his father-in-law, had bought all the lottery tickets in the lottery booth.
It must be said, their wastrel younger brother seemed to just have that kind of luck. Buying lottery tickets like that and winning a hundred thousand without losing face in front of his father-in-law.
At that time, Xiao Shuzhu indeed began to suspect, she said to her two sisters, "Is it really just Yebai’s luck that is good?"
"If not luck, what is it?" Xiao Shuju couldn’t see any trick behind it. Buying lottery tickets, unlike Casino City, lacked any logical means of prediction and was more reliant on luck.
Xiao Shumei was more calm and patient, avoiding discussing which of the younger siblings said what. In reality, after finding out where their brother was, their next step was what to do. The third and fourth siblings were all depending on her, the eldest, to make the decisions. And obviously, Xiao Shumei had no plans yet.
Quiet observation was the strategy Xiao Shumei decided on after much consideration.
This brother, although he always seemed irresponsible, but now that Xiao Shumei knew the truth, she calmed down and realized her daughter was right. Her brother couldn’t just be a playful and wasteful person. A profligate who only knew how to have fun couldn’t possibly articulate aphorisms that set off waves after waves in the online world and won people’s admiration.
So, what was needed now was to figure out what exactly this brother was up to. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⚑𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖⚑𝕟𝕖𝕥
If before, they had brought hostility to probe what Xiao Yebai had done, now, it was the complete opposite; they all brought a certain expectation, hoping Xiao Yebai would do something remarkable.
Indeed, the outcome did not disappoint their expectations.
