PFC Chapter 222 Trouble
Chapter 222 Trouble
"Is the Fang family going to be in trouble recently?" Grandpa Zuo asked impatiently as soon as his butt touched the chair, before he even had time to sit firmly.
Seeing this, Zuo Chusong couldn't help but be a little surprised. He was originally thinking about how to tell his grandfather about this matter tactfully, but he didn't expect his grandfather to be so direct. He hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth: "Uh... Grandpa, who scared you? But don't worry, this matter has nothing to do with our family, and it won't affect us."
Zuo Chusong knew very well that the reason why his grandfather was so impatient must be because this matter was related to the Mo family. The Mo family was a well-known existence in their circle, and most people did not dare to provoke them easily. And the Fang family must have gotten into big trouble this time, otherwise his grandfather would not have asked so anxiously.
No one can remain calm when it comes to anything related to Mohism.
"So, how can you be clear about the situation?" Grandpa Zuo looked at Zuo Chusong steadily with his bright and smart eyes, and asked loudly as he looked at his satisfying grandson in an inquiring manner.
"It's not a very complicated matter. It's the same old story. The eldest daughter of the Fang family wanted to get into Mr. Mo's bed, but she fell into the trap. Now she is pregnant, and she thought it was Mr. Mo's child. A while ago, all members of the Fang family went to the Mo family to ask for an explanation... You know what I mean." Zuo Chusong didn't want to elaborate too much and just mentioned it briefly.
Grandpa Zuo knows everything about this matter, and Zuo Chusong naturally knows everything about it as well.
"Miss Fang? Didn't she just get engaged to the son of the former mayor-to-be? How come she's targeting Yinchuan so soon?" Grandpa Zuo said in surprise. Although he was not young anymore, he had heard about the romantic affairs of young people. However, he was surprised that Miss Fang changed her target so quickly.
Grandpa Zuo thought to himself, this Miss Fang is too fast. She just got engaged to the son of the former mayor-to-be, and she is interested in Yinchuan right after. And from what she said, it seems that she is more than just interested. Could it be that she wants to have a further development with Yinchuan?
"What we are saying is, Mr. Mo is so easy to scheme against, it's not her turn. How naive!" Zuo Chusong sneered softly from the side.
Zuo Chusong was obviously very disdainful of the other family's eldest daughter's behavior. He thought she was too naive to think that she could easily outwit Mr. Mo.
However, Grandpa Zuo suddenly seemed to sense something was wrong. He looked at Zuo Chusong suspiciously and asked, "It's not just that. Is there someone behind this? Miss Fang seems to have a pretty high IQ."
Zuo Chusong did not respond immediately to Grandpa Zuo's words, but remained silent and fell into deep thought, as if he was thinking about how to answer his own grandfather's question more appropriately.
"Grandpa, don't worry about this. If Miss Fang has no bad intentions, no matter how many schemes and calculations are made, they will be useless, right?" After thinking for a moment, Zuo Chusong decided that it would be better not to reveal too many details that Mo Yinchuan did not mention to his family.
Some things, whether to do them or not, should not be said too bluntly.
"Hmm - I understand. Go ahead and get busy. The old man from the Fang family wants to invite you to visit the Fang family. You should consider whether to go or not and when to go. Do you understand?" Grandpa Zuo whispered the purpose of this trip.
Zuo Chusong was not in a position to say it, but he was afraid that it was most likely related to Mo Yinchuan. Seeing that Zuo Chusong was sensible, Grandpa Zuo felt relieved. Grandpa Zuo did not want to know all the affairs of young people.
Each generation has its own way of thinking. If Zuo Chusong feels it is difficult to express clearly, then it is really difficult to express clearly. Grandpa Zuo will not force him. It is not because he is good at controlling his desire, but Grandpa Zuo later discovered that no matter how strong his learning ability is, there is a generation gap between him and the young people.
Grandpa Zuo discovered that asking too many questions would only cause problems if young people’s understanding ability could not keep up, so it was better not to ask.
For example, now, Zuo Chusong was hesitant to speak, and it was obvious that he didn't know how to make this old man understand the whole story. Zuo Chusong's expression made Grandpa Zuo realize that this matter might have been tacitly approved by Mo Yinchuan, so Zuo Chusong was even more reluctant to say too much.
The old, middle and young generations of Mohists do not like to participate in social activities frequently. It is rare for them to stop and look at someone. There are two main reasons for this: first, the Mohist family is huge and has many industries. The people in the family are busy with affairs and can hardly handle all affairs even if they have the ability to clone themselves; second, the spiritual world of the Mohists is profound and unfathomable. They seem to have no interest in the bad habits and vulgar preferences of ordinary people. They live like saints. It is difficult for others to find a way to cater to them, so it is naturally difficult to curry favor with the Mohists.
What kind of people to associate with is the result of the Mo family's active choice. It is almost impossible for ordinary people to do something to attract the attention of the Mo family.
The fact that Grandpa Zuo can say a few words in front of Mo Yifu does not mean that Zuo Chusong's father has a chance to catch Mo Zhengting's eye. Therefore, the weight of the few words that Grandpa Zuo can say in front of Mo Yifu cannot determine whether Mo Yinchuan is willing to be friends with Zuo Chusong.
Now Zuo Chusong has surpassed his master and continued the friendship between the Zuo family and the Mo family. This is exactly what Grandpa Zuo would like to see. How could he interfere and break this virtuous cycle?
In the past, Mo Yifu also liked Fang Tianzuo, but when it came to Fang Keqian, Mo Zhengting was unwilling to even look at Fang Keqian, so that Fang Minyi had no chance to come into contact with Mo Yinchuan since she was a child.
The so-called old friends don't seem to exist in the Mohist family. Each generation in their family has very different ways of making friends and treating friends, and their social circles and priorities are also very different. It seems that the Mohist family would rather have each generation's social circles not overlap.
Grandpa Zuo has experienced decades of vicissitudes, but he still dare not say that he has fully understood the way of life of the Mo family. However, after so many years of observation and contact, he discovered an important characteristic: as long as they are not malicious and excessively targeted at the Mo family, the Mo family is actually very easy to get along with and communicate with.
They seem to have an innate affinity that makes people feel comfortable and at ease. Moreover, the Mo family never spends time and energy on targeted behavior, let alone getting involved in the vortex of vicious competition. On the contrary, they always maintain a low-key attitude, as if they hope that the whole world can ignore their existence.
This low profile is not a form of inferiority or escape, but a kind of confidence in one's own strength and a calm attitude towards life. The Mo family does not seem to care about the attention and praise from the outside world. They are more focused on their inner pursuits and truly important things.
