Chapter 1291 The Big Pie Falling from the Sky
As soon as Jiang Jianmin finished speaking, Chen Ping hurried over with steady and powerful steps.
After standing still, he saluted Jiang Jianmin and Jiang Cheng with a standard military salute, his expression respectful and solemn.
"Uncle Jiang, Young Master Jiang." Chen Ping's voice was deep and powerful, revealing the firmness of a soldier.
Jiang Jianmin turned around and looked at Chen Ping with a gentle but scrutinizing gaze.
He nodded slightly and asked in a steady tone, "Chen Ping, has Uncle Qiu been sent back safely?"
Chen Ping responded immediately, with a hint of caution in his tone: "Yes, don't worry, Uncle Qiu is now living in a place where our people are all safe. In the past two days, except for visiting General Qiu on the first day, he has stayed in the yard for the rest of the time."
Jiang Jianmin nodded slightly, with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.
"Very good. During the time I'm away, ask them to take good care of him at all times. He is in poor health right now, and he can't be left without someone by his side 24 hours a day."
If my dad hadn’t said those words to me just now.
Jiang Cheng might still think in his heart that his father takes very good care of Qiu Zheng.
But now Jiang Cheng understands that 24-hour care is actually surveillance.
Upon hearing this, Chen Ping once again saluted Jiang Jianmin with a standard military salute.
Say back in a firm and powerful voice: "Yes, I understand!"
Hearing this, Jiang Jianmin showed a satisfied smile on his face, and stretched out his right hand and gently patted Chen Ping's shoulder.
At the same time, he kept praising her: "Well, well, well, Uncle Chen really taught you very well."
In response to Jiang Jianmin's praise, Chen Ping showed extraordinary humility.
He knew very well that his great-grandfather was now in his twilight years.
In the near future, Jiang Jianmin will inevitably be in charge of the entire Jiang family.
Therefore, he did not dare to take lightly every word Jiang Jianmin said, but immediately responded respectfully.
"Uncle Jiang, this is all thanks to the care and support from the old master and you. Otherwise, I would not have achieved what I have today."
Jiang Jianmin smiled slightly and continued, "In our environment, there are many motivated talents like you. But over the years, you and Uncle Chen have shown your character and ability by my father's side, and I fully recognize that. I don't trust other people, I only trust you two."
These words were like a thunderclap in Chen Ping's ears, making him feel very surprised.
For a moment, an expression of joy that was difficult to conceal appeared on his face involuntarily.
He spoke quickly, his words full of gratitude and excitement: "Thank you for your recognition, uncle! Thank you very much!"
"Well, for so many years, my father has trusted you the most. Don't let me down. At your age, if you work hard, you will hopefully surpass your father in the future."
My father's rhetoric, which is full of workplace PUA, is similar to what I said to Wang Sheng before.
But at that time, what I said to Wang Sheng was.
If you work hard, you will have money, a house, and even a car.
Jiang Cheng silently turned his gaze to Chen Ping.
But to his surprise, he found that Chen Ping and Wang Sheng had very similar expressions.
I was completely immersed in the great joy of being affirmed and encouraged by my elders.
He straightened his back and held his chest high.
He responded in an extremely firm and powerful tone: "Please rest assured, I will definitely live up to your expectations and will not let you down."
Jiang Jianmin nodded with satisfaction and continued, "Well, after the Chinese New Year, I will also go to the Tibetan area. Uncle Chen has been there for some time. I will take good care of him and try to bring him back with me when I come back."
The cake my dad drew is round and fragrant.
The round and delicious pancake fell from the sky and hit Chen Ping's heart.
Chen Ping, who was already in tears because of being moved, now found it difficult to suppress the surging emotions in his heart.
He quickly raised his arm and gently wiped the tears that kept falling from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve. Then, with a flushed face and an extremely excited expression, he solemnly saluted Jiang Jianmin again with a standard military salute.
He shouted loudly: "Thank you Uncle Jiang for your care and love for our family! I, Chen Ping, swear here that I will be loyal to the Jiang family until my death, even if it means sacrificing my life!"
Seeing Chen Ping's sincere and passionate statement, Jiang Jianmin couldn't help but smile. He reached out and patted Chen Ping on the shoulder.
His tone was amiable but at the same time carried an irresistible authority: "Well, good boy, I have always been optimistic about you. Okay, go and do your thing."
After getting Jiang Jianmin's permission, Chen Ping bowed deeply, then turned around and left with firm and powerful steps.
After Chen Ping walked away, Jiang Jianmin turned to look at his son Jiang Cheng beside him. After looking at each other, the two continued to walk slowly along the winding path in the garden towards the deeper parts.
At this moment, everything in the garden seemed to have sensed the change in atmosphere.
The sunlight struggled to penetrate the layers of branches and leaves, casting patches of mottled light and shadows on the winding path, like a broken puzzle.
The bushes on the roadside are neatly trimmed, but in this depressing atmosphere, there is a sense of restraint.
The father and son looked at each other, then slowly walked deeper along the path.
The path was paved with stone slabs of different sizes. In the gaps between the slabs, a few green grasses stubbornly emerged, shivering in the breeze.
The one climbing up the stairs was Xu, and neither the father nor the son spoke.
Above our heads, lush branches intertwined to form a green dome.
The birds that were originally chirping happily now seemed to be cast under a spell and all stopped singing.
Curled up quietly on a branch, its round eyes occasionally turned, as if it was carefully observing the father and son, as if it also felt the oppression and dared not make a sound.
In this way, I climbed dozens of steps silently.
When they climbed to the middle of the mountain and began to look down, Jiang Cheng asked, "Dad, isn't Uncle Qiu's cousin a very high-ranking one? How is his relationship with my great grandfather?"
I saw that I was out of breath after climbing such a flight of stairs, while Jiang Cheng seemed to be alone.
Jiang Jianmin felt relieved, but he couldn't help but glare at Jiang Cheng.
He knew what Jiang Cheng wanted to ask, and breathed heavily.
After a pause, he shook his head, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.
"From what I know about him, he is a fence-sitter. He will stand on whichever side the wind blows to. But it's no wonder. Now the Qiu family has no successor, and only Qiu Yihe is left. He can only protect himself."
Jiang Cheng frowned and continued to ask: "Have they completely given up on Uncle Qiu now?"
