Not The Sideburns I Know Chapter 118

Before the end of the year, the two newspapers that were talking nonsense were smashed at night. Not only were their stalls smashed, but they were also covered with feces. They would not be able to open for business within half a year. When Ervin heard the news the next day, his first reaction was that it was a great relief and a heroic act, but after a little thought, he knew it was not a good thing. He interrogated his confidants one by one, and the top suspects were Ryan and Du Qi. The two immediately denied it and said that they would never be so stupid as to accuse Ervin. It was true. In the end, this account would still be attributed to Ervin. He was the one who ordered it, but he was also the one who ordered it. Whoever said something wrong about him, he would destroy his job, which confirmed his reputation as a drama tyrant. Ervin went around asking questions, but he didn't get any information. This matter eventually became an unsolved case. There was a lot of discussion among the people for a few days, but it didn't last until the end of the year. There were many stories in the city, and soon the news was overshadowed by the marriage of Commander Cao's daughter.

The new son-in-law of the Cao family is a son of a former official with a rich family background. He returned from studying abroad the year before last and studied engineering in college. He has nothing to do with the current political and official circles. He seems to be in the same situation as Du Qi, but he is much more decent than Du Qi. He is the senior of Miss Cao San and the brother-in-law appointed by Cao Guixiu himself. It is said that the third brother-in-law is good except that he is a little bit bad. A little bit bad is also good. Cao Guixiu can't stand anyone causing trouble for his third sister.

Commander Cao didn't know what he owed Cao Guixiu. The father and son always seemed like enemies. In some matters, Commander Cao unexpectedly obeyed his son's ideas. He obviously looked down on this scholar son-in-law, but the third lady's lifelong event was still decided by Cao Guixiu. Cao Guixiu came back from the station two months ago to prepare for his sister's wedding. He was not like Lily said, he would just sit there and do nothing. Today he went to see an official, and tomorrow he went to see a rich man. He ran around the capital like a male socialite, and he actually collected an extra generous dowry. Ryan heard the news and sat at home for a while, waiting for his nephew to come and ask for money. Unexpectedly, Cao Guixiu seemed to show mercy and never came.

On this day, Ryan went to Ervin's house, Cao Guixiu was drinking a cup of tea in the living room, the two were reminiscing about the past, talking about old things, and laughing very happily. The lights were on in the room, and the steam from the teacup covered Cao Guixiu's eyebrows, making him misty. With his back to the light, he looked less military and more gentle; his long legs, which were used to wearing riding boots, had nowhere to put, so they were stretched far away on the ground, and he sat crookedly on the chair, which was a rare comfortable and relaxed posture. Suddenly, he saw Ryan walk in, put down the teacup, struggled to sit up, and his expression immediately changed.

"That's it." He said to Ervin, "I'll leave the whole party to you. You take the lead. Please tell Niu Baiwen for me to invite all the good actors. Don't save money for me." He turned to Ryan, nodded and called him Second Master Cheng. Ryan also nodded and called him Young Master. Since Cao Guixiu didn't ask Ryan for money, he didn't need to be perfunctory. He didn't say a word, put on his hat and left. It was very impolite, but Ryan didn't mind.
