Chapter 473: Old Father-in-law

It only took two stops to get on the bus, and Ruiyang came to the million-village community.

To the east of the village are planned residential areas, while to the west, there is an old-fashioned hutong, where the old Beijing courtyard houses are located, and it is there that the old man of Ruiyang lives.

Compared to the rows of buildings in the planned area, the alleys to the west are a bit secluded.

Crossing a street, the road in front of him suddenly opened up, and then at the gate of the courtyard where a Shanghai brand car was parked, Ruiyang stopped.

At this time, there were two tall plainclothes men standing at the door of the courtyard, Ruiyang explained his intention, showed his documents, and was taken into the courtyard.

The courtyard house is a little old, but the courtyard is clean, and there are some flowers and plants planted in it, and in the middle of the courtyard, an old man with gray temples is wielding a wooden sword in his hand in the morning exercise.

The guard at the gate turned around and went out after taking Ruiyang to the courtyard, while Lao Tzu was still engrossed in practicing his sword, his movements light and slow.

Ruiyang didn't say a word when he saw this scene, just gently put the bottle of Lao Baifen in his hand on the marble bench next to him, and then stood quietly aside and waited.

After five or six minutes, the white-haired old man stopped what he was doing, and after looking at it, he said, "Why are you here?"

"Dad, I went to the ministry for a meeting yesterday, and I came to see your old man today. Ruiyang said respectfully.

"Come in and sit. The white-haired old man motioned for Ruiyang to enter the house.

Hearing this, Ruiyang followed the old man into the house.

The main house is not large, but it is very simple and clean, and there are several pots of bamboo on the balcony, which seem to have just been watered, and under the sunlight, it looks crystal clear and green.

At this time, a middle-aged woman was cleaning up the housework in the house, and when she saw Lao Tzu entering the house, she immediately stepped forward as soon as possible, took the wooden sword from his hand, and put it on the shelf next to it.

"Xiao Li, you go out!" The old man waved his hand, and the middle-aged woman turned around and left, closing the door by the way.

"Sit down. The white-haired old man motioned for Ruiyang to sit down.

"Dad, how is your health lately. After Ruiyang sat down, he asked the old man with concern.

"That's it, there is no hope for the elderly......" the white-haired old man sighed, and then said, "Tell me about you, how is your work lately?"

"It's very smooth, at the beginning of the year, we introduced a German second-hand production line to Daxing Automobile Factory, and the current factory benefits are good, and the output is several ......times higher than in the past," Ruiyang said respectfully.

"I already know about this, you have done a good job, at least you are worthy of the foreign exchange spent by the country. The old man nodded when he heard this, and then said, "I think you've been having a hard time lately, right?"

"I think it's okay, it's not too much, it's just a little bit away from home. Ruiyang said with a deep groan.

"Your father entrusted you to me when he left, I have actually always regarded you as my own son, I originally hoped that you would stay in the capital to work, but you insisted on going to Daxing to be the director of the bureau, everyone has their own ambitions, and I can't force you to do anything......"

"There's no room for me to do my best in the capital, and it's really exhausting to stay in the office every day. Ruiyang paused, and then said: "I just want to make a career while I'm still young, I don't want others to say I'm ......."

"What are you talking about, saying that you eat soft rice?" the white-haired old man's face flashed disapprovingly.

"I don't care what others think of me, I just feel that I can't waste my life, although I may not be able to achieve the same achievements as you and my father in this life, but at least I have to struggle......" Ruiyang frowned slightly, and then said: "It's just that I owe a lot to my family in the past two years, and I am in the field all the year round, and the two children in the family can only rely on Xiaofang to take care of them alone, and I feel quite guilty......"

"Guilty of what? Men are supposed to focus on their careers, and you're doing the right thing. The old man glanced at Ruiyang, and then said: "Besides, my daughter is not so squeamish, she also suffered with me when she was a child, marrying a chicken with a chicken, marrying a dog with a dog, there is nothing to say, it's just that your two children have always missed you, you should go back to Beijing to see them more." ”

"yes, I see. Ruiyang nodded when he heard this.

"Your two children are very good, Ruihe is more honest, and he is very diligent in learning, but his ability is a little mediocre, but Ruixue, this little girl, has some aura, although she is young, but she is much more mature and flexible than his brother, and if you cultivate it well in the future, you will definitely have a great future." The old man said lightly.

"Rui Xue, this kid has indeed been much smarter than his brother since he was a child, but it's a pity that it's a girl...... Ruiyang sighed lightly.

"What's wrong with the girl? You are still so young, why is this concept more outdated than my old man, and a woman can hold up half the sky! In the future, this Xiaoxue will be cultivated well, and maybe she will be more promising than you in the future!" the old man glared at Ruiyang and said.

"Yes, yes, Dad, you're right!" Ruiyang replied.

"Okay, let's not talk about that, you can just take more time to come back and have a look in the future. The old man paused, and then said: "You came to me alone today, and you also carried a bottle of wine, you kid didn't have this filial piety before, did you ask me for something?"

"Dad, you know me. Ruiyang smiled slightly, and then said: "That's the case, yesterday the ministry held a meeting to study and discuss the localization of imported cars, I think this is an opportunity for me, if the ministry can approve another foreign exchange, I think Daxing City can give the people of the whole country a surprise ......."

"Although I am now in a semi-retired state, I can still say something in your light industry department. The old man frowned slightly, and then said: "The country's foreign exchange is precious, every penny invested needs to be heard, now the country is full of princes' economy, local leaders are also trying to their own provincial and municipal enterprises to win foreign exchange funds and projects, I always give you a partial meal like this, others are looking at it, do you think this is good for you in the future?" However, as for the localization of joint venture automobiles, I have also known some information recently, and if you want to get this foreign exchange from the country, you need to have something that you can get your hands on?"

"What do you have to offer?"

"Even if you just take out a set of samples that meet international standards and prove that you have the technology and process to produce this kind ......of product in Daxing, only in this way will I talk a lot when I help you ask for money, and only in this way will officials in other provinces and cities be convinced," the old man said.
