The best time is because of you

Chapter 1 Wedges
When Shuya was seven years old, she attended Cai Jiu's 40th birthday banquet with her parents. During the banquet, Cai Jiu asked, "Aya, do you like reading?"

Shuya was gnawing on the cake, and there was still a grain of cream stuck to her pink face, when she heard Cai Jiutou's question, she shook her head and said, "I like it."

Cai Jiu was confused by her inconsistent words and deeds: "Do you like it or not?"

Shuya pointed her fingers in embarrassment, and two small dimples appeared on her delicate face: "I like going to school, but I don't like doing homework, and I don't like taking exams."

Cai Jiu finally understood, and asked softly, "What do you want to do when you grow up?"

Shu Ya patted her chest, full of pride: "I want to learn from my father and be a very rich man. Whoever listens to me will give him pocket money, and whoever is disobedient, hmph, I will deduct his pocket money." .”

Cai Jiu and Shu Heng laughed loudly. At that time, the Cai family and the Shu family were not considered famous and rich. Although they were rich, they were very low-income. The greatest joy in life is to spend a lot of money, and then give a lot of loose money .A few years later, there is a term that accurately interprets the image of this kind of person - local tyrant.Cai Jiu and Shu Heng were born in street gangsters, and neither of them had read much. They just seized the good opportunity of that era, and with a relentless spirit of daring to fight, break through and endure hardships, they just made a fortune.Therefore, under the influence of her father's generation, little Shuya also has the temperament of a local tyrant. .

"Okay, good boy, courageous." Cai Jiu praised, and then changed his words, "However, to become a rich man, a very rich rich man, you have to suffer a lot!"

Shuya frowned: "Is it more bitter than taking many, many bitter medicines?"

"What kind of hardship is it to take some bitter medicine? Your ninth uncle and I came out to make a living at the age of 15. The wind came, the rain came and went, we went up the mountain of knives and into the sea of ​​fire. After more than ten years of suffering, we became a comparative A rich man." Cai Jiu sighed, rolled up his sleeves, with scars criss-crossing, "This is the memory of our fight with a local snake when your father and I were selling furs on the Russian border. " He opened his chest again, and there was a deep and long scar on his chest, "This is when I took a group of brothers to deliver goods to Tibet. I ran into a road bandit, got hacked, and almost died..." From Cai Jiu is the proudest thing in his life that a gangster with nothing has fought hard to become a generation of big local tyrants. Whenever he thinks about the past, he can't help but talk endlessly, "And then——"

Seeing that he was about to untie the belt around his waist, Shu Heng hurriedly stopped him: "Ninth brother, brothers all know that it is not easy for you. I think you took everyone with you so that we would no longer be looked down upon and irritated everywhere. During the time when the whole world was trying to find their way out, going up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of ​​flames was nothing, not even a single hair."

Others also echoed: "That's right, Mao doesn't even count."

Shuya swallowed, and asked softly, "Is there an easier way than a hair?"

"Yes, of course," Cai Jiu said with a smile, "Have you ever heard the saying, Aya, that men conquer the world, and women conquer men?"

Shuya blinked her big eyes, not knowing why.

Cai Jiu is persuasive: "It took your father more than ten years to conquer a lot of people to create the family business today. It took your mother to conquer your father alone, and it took 10 minutes. Your father's people and money are all gone." It's hers; one person or a bunch of people, 10 minutes or more than ten years, which one is easier to handle?"

I think of my father being obedient to my mother at home on weekdays; when I go out, others treat my mother with courtesy.Shuya suddenly realized: "I understand, Uncle Ninth, what you mean is that instead of trying to become a rich man yourself, it is better to find a rich man to be your husband, right?"

Cai Jiu was relieved: "Look, what a smart kid, he can master it with one click, Ah Heng, there is hope for successors."

Shu Heng looked proud: "That is, our Aya is smart and beautiful, and no one has anything to say."

But Shuya was distressed: "But now I don't know which boy will become a rich man in the future?"

Cai Jiu smiled kindly: "Look at Uncle Jiu, I—"

"Ah?" Shuya's eyes widened in surprise, and she muttered in embarrassment, "Uncle Jiu, you are too old, even older than my father, and not as good-looking as my father..."

Cai Jiu had a gritty expression on his face.

"Hey, you child," Shu Heng hurriedly interrupted his daughter, "Why can't you speak at all?" He apologized to Cai Jiu, "Brother Jiu, since you are young, you will tell the truth and don't know how to be euphemistic. mind……"

Cai Jiu secretly gritted his teeth, sunken the corners of his mouth, and frowned.

Wang Meiyao kicked her husband quietly under the table, and Shu Heng shut his mouth wisely.

Cai Jiu sighed: "Aya, Uncle Jiu wanted to ask you what you think of my son."

Shuya looked at the two brothers Cai Wentao and Cai Junfeng who were circling among the guests. The two brothers were both 14 years old, but they were not twins. Shuya herself had no brothers or sisters, so she didn't feel abnormal about this situation.She has known them since she was a child, and along with Cai Wenmin, the only daughter of the Cai family, called her eldest brother and second brother, so she is not unfamiliar with them.Among the crowd, although the two brothers were young, they socialized well and behaved elegantly. They were completely different from the nouveau riche temperament of their parents.

Shu Ya said cheerfully: "I like my second brother, he will take me out to play and teach me how to draw." She pouted again, "The elder brother doesn't pay much attention to me, I don't like him."

Cai Jiu asked again: "Sooner or later everything about Uncle Jiu will belong to the son, will you be Uncle Jiu's daughter-in-law when you grow up?

"What does a daughter-in-law do?" She was puzzled.

"It's just eating, drinking and having fun at Uncle Jiu's house all day long. I love you like my own daughter. From now on, my son and money will all belong to you."

When Shuya heard it, she was immediately happy: "Okay, okay, I'll be your daughter-in-law now, okay?"

Wang Meiyao knocked her daughter on the head: "Don't mess around, Uncle Jiu is just joking with you."

Cai Jiu said solemnly: "Ah Heng, let's talk about it first. From now on, your daughter will be the default daughter-in-law of our Cai family."

Shu Heng agreed carelessly: "No problem, as long as my nephew can wait patiently for 13 years, and Aya turns 20, I will marry her well."

Cai Jiu laughed out loud, and many people followed suit.

It was originally just a joking engagement, and no one took it seriously.Unexpectedly, an accident happened five years later. At the critical moment of life and death, Shu Heng rescued Cai Jiu, but his own life was dying. Before he died, he held his breath and refused to swallow, and looked at Cai Jiu earnestly.

Cai Jiu knew what he was worried about, so he held his hand tightly: "Ah Heng, brothers in life and death, don't worry, as long as I, Cai Jiu, are here, I can guarantee that your wife and daughter will be safe and prosperous all day long, even if I'm not around one day. , and my son will take over from me and continue to take care of their mother and daughter!"

Shu Heng closed his eyes safely.

Cai Jiu looked behind him at the group of hard-core brothers who shared weal and woe and started a business together: "Everyone, my Cai Jiu's life was given by Ah Heng. He is affectionate and righteous to me. I must not let him down. Please brother today!" Let us be a witness, in the future my Cai family property will only be passed on to the son who becomes Ah Heng’s son-in-law, I will make a will, if I die in the future, my son violates my oath today, he must give up the right to inherit the family property.”

On the side, Cai Wentao's face turned pale, and he subconsciously glanced at Shu Ya, facing her face covered with tears and snot from crying, he immediately turned his head away in disgust, Cai Junfeng raised the corner of his eyes slightly, and squinted at him , a faint sneer appeared on his lips.
