"Sister, brother-in-law, I'm back..."

"Meimei, let's go over, this kid's salute is bound to be indispensable." Lu Xiyan and Meng Fanxing had already seen Meng Hao waving on the bow of the ship on the dock.

"Where is Xiao Wu, why didn't he come to pick me up? I even brought him a gift?"

"Young Master Hao brought a gift to Xiaowu. Do I have one?" Yan Lei came forward with a smile, and asked with a heavy suitcase in one hand.

"Brother Yan Lei, of course I can't forget it."

"Young Master Hao went to Hong Kong and his mouth became sweet." Yan Lei smiled and picked up the suitcase and put it in the trunk of the car.

"I heard that Brother Yan Lei has been promoted?"

Yan Lei was slightly stunned, a little puzzled. He didn't become an official, so where did he get the promotion of an official?

"I've been promoted to general manager, it's time to have a big meal." Meng Hao said with a smile.

"Yan Lei, don't listen to this guy. Meimei and I discussed it for a while and planned to hand over Meng'an Company to you. Meimei will be responsible for investment in the future and will no longer be responsible for the management of Meng'an Company's medicines." Lu Xiyan said, "I still want to find some time to talk to you about this."

"Sir, I'm afraid I don't have this ability and will let you down and your wife's trust."

"We are not in Shanghai during this period. You are not doing things in the company in an orderly manner, especially the first quarter import list you have formulated, which includes the necessary medicines for diseases that are frequently encountered in spring in the plan for large-scale procurement. This shows that you have a very visionary vision, know how to prepare for the future and prepare in advance, and you have already possessed the qualities of a qualified manager." Lu Xiyan said.

"I'll just say that Brother Yan Lei is promoted and raised, and this big meal cannot be escaped." Meng Hao laughed, "I'm finally back, but the air in Shanghai is still comfortable."

"I think you want a big meal, right?"

"But, my dad and Mengyao were too light. They either steamed or cooked, and they didn't add salt. My mouth was almost fading out. No, I want to eat braised lion heads, squirrel mandarin fish, braised lamb..."

"You are so damn Hongjian, the whole family will have porridge tonight!"

"Puchi..." Meng Fanxing couldn't help laughing.

"Sister, look, this dad is gone, how is my brother-in-law stingy?" Meng Hao cried out.

"What does it mean that Dad is gone? He didn't bring a door to his words? If Dad hears this, he will break your legs." Lu Xiyan glared and snorted coldly, "Get into the car and go home quickly. It's too late. You have time to do whatever you want to eat."

...

Inoue Mansion, Tiantong Road, Hongkou.

"President, something happened in the South Pier." Tsumamoto hurriedly pushed open Yuichi Inoue's office. He knew that Yuichi Inoue was spending the night in the mansion last night, so he hurried over early in the morning.

"Quzukamoto, what's the matter?" Yuichi Inoue was wearing a wide kimono, and never left his hand. He walked out slowly from it. His pale face was almost like excessive indulgence.

"President, I originally planned to use two small coal-carrying steamers to transport about 600 Chinese workers on board the troop transport ship Harumimaru, but after waiting for a night, the two small small steamers agreed to appear. In the morning, news came from the French Concession that the arresting house arrested the long-wanted blind Lao Ba and others at the South Pier that had been wanted last night..." Tsukamoto said anxiously.

"What, Sato, was it that they caught Sato?" A hint of panic flashed across Yu Yu's face. Smuggling and selling labor. Such things are something that can be done, and this is condemned and abandoned in the whole world.

"I don't know, this matter has spread throughout the Shanghai beach. If the French arresting house really catches any handle, then we will be in trouble."

"Sato Kun is a samurai. He should understand the great relationship. You can go to the French Concession and find out the situation in detail. I will go to see Mr. Iwai immediately." Yuichi Inoue knew that if these smuggling workers and young women were going to Japan, it would be a huge scandal, which would make Japan's international reputation fall again.

Japan still needs face internationally.

"Hayi!"

...

"Yunko, Yuichi Inoue is in trouble. Tang Jin, who was in the law enforcement office, joined hands with the water police last night to copy a transportation line for smuggling and selling Chinese labor and women. He just didn't know if his people were caught on the spot." Asano Ichiro received the news and rushed over from the military police headquarters immediately to tell Yuko Takeuchi.

"They are very close to the Admiralty. It will be discovered that this kind of business will be discovered sooner or later. What do you think of Tang Jin's attitude towards the empire?"

"As far as I know, Tang Jin serves the French and obeys all the orders of the French concession authorities. As for himself, he is very self-disciplined and has no obvious bad habits. Moreover, he is a mixed Chinese-English race and has a Western thinking pattern, so I think he is a pragmatic person." Asano Ichiro said.

"Salli is going back to China. Next, Tang Jin may go a step further. His mixed-race and overseas relations can help him get a higher position. Otherwise, the French would not trust him so much." Takeuchi Yunko said.

"Yes, if Tang Jin takes over the Political Department, he will become the third person in the legal arrest room, and this person we are going to deal with."

"Part the information about Tang Jin for me, what color I like, what food I eat, what style of clothes I wear, what shops I often go to, the routine of my work and rest, etc. Of course, there are also information about his family, the more detailed the better." Takeuchi Yunko ordered.

"Okay, this is not difficult. I can also let the insider help us get Tang Jin's resume in the law arresting room, which will be more complete." Asano Ichiro said.

"Yeah, very good."

...

"I have been drinking seafood porridge for a month, but the white rice at home is still fragrant!" Meng Hao put down his chopsticks, stroked his stomach, his mouth full of oil, "I can eat a braised lion's head with rice, and I can eat another bowl."

"It's like a starving ghost reincarnated, as if in Hong Kong, Dad and Mengyao abused you." Meng Fanxing said slowly chewing rice.

"No, I'm too full of food. Brother Xiaowu, help me and I'll go to digest the food!"

Ma Xiaowu covered his mouth and laughed, put down the bowls and chopsticks, stood up, and helped Meng Hao up.

"I'm not too familiar with this kid, I'm not used to the diet in Hong Kong. My dad and Mengyao are even faster than we can adapt to it."

"Dad is older and has a lighter taste, and some hard foods are not easy to digest. Naturally, we are used to it. We are still young and have a heavy taste, and some are not used to it. This is normal." Meng Fanxing analyzed.

"It makes sense, it makes sense. This braised lion head is really good. I'll have another one..."

"Swoosh!"

The last braised lion's head flew away from Lu Xiyan's eyes when he was about to pick up the chopsticks and fell into A Xiang's bowl.

"Axiang, girl, don't eat so greasy at night, which makes you prone to gain weight." Lu Xiyan put down his chopsticks angrily and induced him in a temptation.

"Xiyan, Axiang loves to eat lion heads on weekdays, so you can't let her have a little bit?" Meng Fanxing glared at Lu Xiyan.

When A Xiang came, she was almost as thin as a bamboo pole. After a few months, she not only grew taller, but also became much more round.

Meng Fanxing is very fond of this girl. Now, except for not sleeping together, she is almost always inseparable at other times.

"I'm doing this for her good. I'm too fat and can't get married in the future. So I won't be able to support her for the rest of my life?" Lu Xiyan hummed.

"Axiang is not married!" Axiang, who was cooking rice, suddenly said.

"How can a girl not get married? You are still young now and don't understand this. You will understand when you get older." Lu Xiyan said.

"If you say you don't marry, you won't marry, and there will be no good thing for men!"

"Well……"

All three men who were still eating at the table were affected.

"That gentleman, I'm full." Ma Xiaowu was the first to run away. It is said that he had fought with A Xiang in private and lost a lot. When he saw A Xiang at home, he took a detour.

"Sir, I, too..."

"Sit down, there is still half of your bowl left. Do you know how many people outside can't eat at a time?" Lu Xiyan snorted coldly.

Yan Lei looked embarrassed and had to sit down and continue to pick up the food in the bowl.

After dinner, I returned to the study room upstairs.

"Xiyan, Axiang is still a child, why are you going to do this?"

"Eighteen years old, a big girl." Lu Xiyan said, "I'm not really angry about what she said. I'm worried that she will have problems in the future."

"That's true. I've been neglected. I'll find opportunities to enlighten her in the future. In fact, she is still young and can change it." Meng Fanxing said.

"That's all, where is Haozi?"

"I'm talking to Mengyao downstairs."

“How long has it been?”

"It's been more than ten minutes..."

"This kid, let him pay half of the phone bill at home in the future."

"After all, we took the couple apart. What's wrong with your brother-in-law giving you more phone bills?" Meng Fanxing said unhappily.

"Forget it, forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. The Qingming Festival is coming soon. Should we prepare the things to visit the grave earlier?"

"I should prepare it. I'll see if there is no class in the afternoon tomorrow, so I'll take the time to ask Sister He to go out together to help with the preparation..."

"Are we going to find a gardener? Just Ah Xiang's level, let her take care of the garden, I'm afraid that all the flowers and plants will be pulled out sooner or later."

"Then I'll find a gardener and add another expense. The family expenses are already quite large?" Meng Fanxing calculated.

"We still have to hold on to what should be flowers."

The notice for recruiting gardeners was posted the next day. In less than half a day, someone came to apply for the job.

A middle-aged man with a little lame feet, dressed simply and spoke slowly, but his eyes were not very good and he was wearing a pair of glasses.

He had no other skills, so he liked to take care of flowers and plants. Because he was too stubborn, he always couldn't get along with his master's family. He quit his job and looked for it again. He had no meals after eating.

When Meng Fanxing heard what he said, he felt pitiful and gave him a week of probationary period. He stayed there for food and accommodation, and had eight o'clock every month.

It was when Lu Xiyan came back from get off work in the evening and saw the new gardener at home, he was shocked.

This new gardener is actually Lao Song from Fuxin Hotel.
