Lord Xiao, your wife is super sweet!

Chapter 691 She Was Totally Different From When She was Young

The manor where the old lady of the Gong family is outside.

It is cold and cool in winter, but the tea room is as warm as spring, and the tea is full of air, with a light fragrance.

"When did you come back?"

Taking a sip of the tea, the old lady of the Gong family looked at the person sitting in front of her, and asked in a friendly manner.

Uncle Lei is still wearing a neat suit, with piercing eyes and hale and hearty spirit.

He is like an English gentleman who traveled from the last century. No matter what the situation is or in front of anyone, he is always elegant and makes people feel very comfortable.

Because he used to follow the old lady of the Gong family, so the old lady of the Gong family treated him fairly politely.

Hearing the old lady's question, Uncle Lei smiled slightly and said, "I came back two days ago."

"According to the calculation, it seems that you haven't been back to Xiaocheng for a long time."

The old lady looked at Uncle Lei indifferently, "Why did you suddenly think about coming back this time?"

Uncle Lei still smiled, "After staying outside for a long time, I can't help but miss my hometown."

The old lady of the Gong family lowered her head and smiled, and brought him a cup of tea, "Aren't you helping the young master manage the group of people abroad? When you come back, nothing will happen there, right?"

In addition to the influence of the Gong family in Xiaocheng, there are also many industries and influences abroad.

Over the years, Gong Xiao was in charge of suppressing domestic affairs, and most of the overseas affairs were handed over to Uncle Lei to supervise and manage.

Uncle Lei was born loyal, his ancestors came to him, and he has been loyal to the patriarch of the Gong family for generations. He used to be the most capable person around the old man of the Gong family, but now he is Gong Xiao's most trusted confidant.

Moreover, Uncle Lei is only loyal to Gong Xiao now.

From the moment he appeared in front of her, the old lady of the Gong family had already guessed his purpose.

One word from Gong Xiao is enough to make someone like Uncle Lei become Gong Ran's lobbyist.

Facing the old lady's inquiry, Uncle Lei remained indifferent. He knew that the old lady had already guessed his purpose, but he didn't say anything directly.

After all, the person in front of me is still the old lady of the Gong family, the wife of the old Patriarch.

Uncle Lei still has some respect for her.

"Old lady, don't worry, those things abroad have been arranged properly, and will never become the worries of the young master."

"So, you came back this time just to have a good year in your hometown?"

The old lady of the Gong family still had a warm smile on her lips, she looked up at Uncle Lei, and there was a flash of shrewdness.

The old lady is also the wife of an aristocratic family who has seen wind and rain, not an ordinary woman with little knowledge.

After so many years of ups and downs in the palace family, she has long become scheming and unpredictable.

In Uncle Lei's eyes, she is completely different from when she was young.

In addition to leaving some marks on her face, the years have also left many indelible marks on her heart.

Now, it is already in her eyes, and the shadow of the past can no longer be seen.

Uncle Lei understood that the old lady already knew his purpose, and he didn't intend to make a detour.

Picking up the teacup in front of him and taking a sip, Uncle Lei spoke in a calm tone, saying:
"I know you have already guessed my reason for coming. I want to visit the young master instead of the young master."

He said directly, the old lady of the Gong family couldn't help but stop drinking tea.

After a while, she continued to take a sip of the tea calmly, placed the teacup on the tea tray in front of her gracefully, raised her eyes and looked at Uncle Lei with a smile, and asked:

"Did Gong Xiao tell you to come here?"

"Eldest Young Master cares about Young Master, brotherhood is deep." Uncle Lei smiled gracefully and answered irrelevant questions.

The old lady of the Gong family narrowed her eyes halfway, but said nothing.
