Chapter 957: Jinling New Year's Eve Four
When has Zhuang Ting's mother seen her husband so nervous, even the chief from the province has never been so nervous, so she already knows what to do in her heart.
A moment later, Zhuang Ting's mother made a large table of sumptuous dinner, and Zhuang Ting's father took out a bottle of liquor that looked like some years from the box.
"Leader, thank you for taking care of this girl in my family all these years. I also welcome you to visit Jinling again, as a local native, if you need help, you can open your mouth, I will do my best. Zhuang Ting's father said when he poured wine for Leng Fan.
"Father Zhuang Ting, you are too polite. Leng Fan replied.
During the meal, Leng Fan found that Zhuang Ting's mother didn't seem to know about Zhuang Ting's cultivation in Kunlun Sect, but only thought that Zhuang Ting was studying at a university far away. Therefore, Leng Fan also remained silent on this matter.
"Father Zhuang Ting, you are a high-level official, I want to inquire, have there been any major incidents in Jinling City in recent years?
Zhuang Ting's father was silent for a moment and said with a smile: "No, it has been quite quiet in the past few years. Since a certain family closed a few years ago, many families in Jinling have strong constraints on their descendants, so there are few incidents that often occur in other cities in Jinling now. ”
After Leng Fan heard these words, the guilt of facing the Li family was reduced a little, and the cruelty to the Li family was exchanged for the peaceful life of many ordinary people.
After dinner, Leng Fan's family was leaving.
"Brother Leng, don't you stay at our house? Didn't you say okay, stay at our house for one night. Zhuang Ting asked expectantly.
Leng Fan replied: "No need, I'm just coming to see the students of our school, just as a home visit." And there are so many of us, it really disturbs your family, thank you very much for your parents' hospitality. ”
Seeing that Leng Fan's family was so determined to leave, Zhuang Ting couldn't hold on anymore, and replied: "Okay, then I'll send you out." ”
Zhuang Ting sent them to the gate of the community before waving goodbye.
Leng Fan hugged his daughter who was already asleep and said: "Jiaqi, this disciple is good, compared with many disciples in the sect, she is very simple, and she is my favorite type of disciple." ”
Zhou Jiaqi hugged his son, and his son also fell asleep, and said, "Should you find a hotel now so that we can have a place to stay?"
Leng Fan said: "Isn't that what you should do? You are Mr. Zhou, don't you have your hotel in Jinling?"
Zhou Jiaqi was like him, and then took out his mobile phone.
※※※
On the second day, outside the hotel where Leng Fan was staying, rows of top cars were parked on the side of the road.
"What kind of big man is here? The hotel is full of top cars, and the outside is full of people from the police force? Is it a big official from the capital?"
"At least the big guy must have come, and last night I saw the police surrounding the hotel, and they didn't dare to use their sirens, as if they were afraid of disturbing the big guy's rest. ”
"I wonder what big people are coming to us?"
A few passers-by were gossiping outside the hotel, and inside the hotel, Leng Fan had already changed into clean clothes, and he and his wife and children were going to Li's house today.
"Xiaofan, just now my mother called, saying that she was very happy, and the Li family welcomed us home. Zhou Jiaqi said when arranging Leng Fan's collar.
"Forget it, let's go!" Leng Fan said.
Leng Fan's family walked out of the door of the room, and a large number of people lined up at the door bowed to them, the management of the hotel, and many managers of the branches of the Zhou Group.
"It's all in the same place. Leng Fan said with a smile.
Zhou Jiaqi smiled: "I'm better, but those people outside are all coming for you." With your identity, you can appear in any city in China, and the first and second leaders in the local area will have to do acupuncture. ”
Leng Fan laughed and said, "It's not wrong, our country's atmosphere is like this, and it can't be changed." ”
Leng Fan walked downstairs, and there was not a single guest in the entire hotel lobby, because the guests here were all emptied last night.
"Mr. Zhou, the car you need is already at the door. The hotel manager came with a smile and complimented Zhou Jiaqi.
Zhou Jiaqi nodded and said, "Thank you." ”
Then they walked out of the hotel gate, and after Leng Fan looked at the traffic police at the door of the hotel, he asked, "What's going on? Why are there so many traffic police?"
The manager replied: "This is the local traffic police force, they are responsible for escorting Mr. Zhou to your destination, and they will open the way for you along the way, so that you can be unimpeded." ”
"Do I still have such treatment now?haha......" Leng Fan said with a smile.
Zhou Jiaqi snorted: "Look at you stupidity, don't you know what your status is now?"
Leng Fan continued to laugh.
※※※
An hour later, Leng Fan and his family finally came to Li's house.
"Dad, is this grandma's home?" The daughter looked at the two big characters 'Li family', she had never seen such a magnificent gate, so she was a little excited.
Leng Fan replied: "Yes, but this is not your grandmother's home alone, there are many father's elders here, and they all live here, so you can't mess around here like at home." ”
"Well, Manni is very obedient. The daughter nodded.
Li Daodong walked out of the gate slowly with a cane, his pale head looked a little decadent, and after approaching Leng Fan and them, he smiled and said, "Li'er is back, hurry up and enter the door." ”
Leng Fan found that his strength had regressed to a second-grade ability, and he felt a little sorry for him.
"Hasn't Grandpa continued to cultivate all these years?" Leng Fan asked.
Li Daodong replied: "What is the cultivation, a handful of old bones, it's just like that, it's a waste of time and energy, it's better to raise flowers and feed the fish, and the rest of the days will pass like this." You see, I'm having a pretty good time now. ”
Leng Fan said: "That's fine, quiet." ”
Li Daodong then asked: "Li'er, Grandpa hasn't congratulated you on founding an immortal sect and opening our dream of cultivating immortals as ordinary humans. ”
Leng Fan said: "Cultivating immortals also depends on fate, and there will be fewer and fewer people who will enter the sect in the future." Maybe not one person will be able to get in for a year. ”
"That's the case! No wonder there are only a dozen disciples recruited this year, and there are many people in our Li family, but none of them have been selected by you, hey! It seems that our Li family really has no successor. Li Daodong sighed.
Leng Fan didn't respond, just silently looked at the old man who had dedicated his life to the Li family.
After walking for a while, Li Daodong smiled and said, "Li'er, the main reason why you finally came back for a trip is to visit your mother, right?
Leng Fan smiled: "Of course." Grandpa, let's go to Mom's side first. ”
Leng Fan continued to walk forward, he found that there were really few people in the Li family now, and it seemed that what happened a few years ago had hit them too hard.
"Dad, I don't like it here. The daughter said.
Leng Fan looked down at his daughter and said, "This is where Dad was born, Manni and the others can't talk nonsense, otherwise your grandma will be angry." ”
"Dad, why is your surname Leng and the surname here is Li?" the son asked suddenly.
Leng Fan didn't know how to answer this question at all, he couldn't explain honestly, right? At least not now, so he looked at Zhou Jiaqi.
Zhou Jiaqi said to his son: "That's because Dad is incognito, just like the emperor on TV, Dad is not very powerful." ”
"Daddy is amazing!" the son jumped up excitedly.
Leng Fan smiled awkwardly, thinking to himself, so that he could flicker past?
After a while, a figure appeared in the distance, and a woman who looked like a housewife stood in the doorway.
"Mom, we're back. Zhou Jiaqi shook her hand loudly.
This woman is Leng Fan's mother Yuan Qingrong, she hasn't seen her for a few years, and she is getting older and older.
"Grandma......" The daughter beckoned, then got rid of Leng Fan's hand and trotted in the direction of grandma.
"My good grandson" Yuan Qingrong squatted down and hugged Manni tightly, and it could be seen that she liked her granddaughter very much.
"Grandma, Manni misses you so much! But Grandma is here and is about to leave, why doesn't Grandma stay with Manni?" Manni is really good at talking, and Yuan Qingrong's tears rolled up.
Leng Fan and Zhou Jiaqi also came.
"Mom, you're old. Leng Fan said.
"It's time to get old. Yuan Qingrong replied, and then she hugged Leng Fan.
"Son, do you hate your mother?" asked Yuan Qingrong suddenly.
"Why should I hate, and you didn't do anything wrong?" Leng Fan replied with a deep breath.
Yuan Qingrong said: "Yes, I have been thinking that I have done something wrong all these years, and I shouldn't be angry with your decision back then?"
Leng Fan said: "Don't say it, go in first, we will all celebrate the New Year here this year." ”
"Good, good, good, great, this is the best Spring Festival my mother has had in years. Yuan Qingrong was very open, took her grandson and granddaughter, and walked into the courtyard gate.
When they walked in, the first thing they saw was a tall figure chopping wood in the courtyard.
"The child is his father, the children are back to spend the holiday with us, what are you chopping firewood? Yuan Qingrong shouted to the front, this figure is naturally Leng Fan's father, Li Hao.
Li Hao put down the axe and looked back at Leng Fan and them.
Leng Fan looked at this father at this time, and there was no hatred in his heart, maybe he was also a father. For the things of that year, he can also have some understanding and consideration in his heart.
"Just come back, I'll cook later. Li Hao said.
Yuan Qingrong smiled: "Regardless of him, he has been like this all these years." ”
Leng Fan asked, "What if he hasn't cultivated all these years?"
Yuan Qingrong nodded and said, "He said no, in addition to chopping firewood every day for all these years, he is cooking, and then going out to fish, I don't know if this is good or bad for him." ”
Leng Fan asked, "All these years, is there any news from my sister's side?"
Yuan Qingrong shook her head and replied: "When your sister left, she told us that she would not contact us, because she was worried that her frequent contact would make us expose herself in front of her enemies, so she would not take the initiative to contact us." ”
At this point, her tears began to fall again.
Leng Fan knew the cruelty of the world of cultivating immortals, and no matter how he was involved, he could become the target of the enemy. When he went to the world of cultivating immortals, he was also worried that his relatives would be discovered by the enemy, so he wandered incognito in the world of cultivating immortals.
"Mom, I'll go see her when I have time. Leng Fan said.
"Okay, okay, I'll cook a few dishes she likes to eat when the time comes, and you can help bring them." That kid is also bitter, I don't know if I've been doing well all these years?" said Yuan Qingrong.
"Grandma, what is this?" Manni found a spinning top out of nowhere.
When Leng Fan saw this spinning top, a scene immediately appeared in his mind, his sister took herself to play with the spinning top in a square, so she also had a fight with other children.
"Manni, I'll teach you to play this, it's fun. Leng Fan said.
"Can I play with this? Manni said with a jump.
Leng Fan found a whip, then stood in the middle of the courtyard and said, "Look, this spinning top is played like this." ”
"Snap" A crisp whip hit the ground, and the spinning top spun rapidly on the ground.
"Wow......" The son Guanghui was excited, because this thing was originally played by boys, and the current children don't know this, only the previous children used a spinning top as a baby toy.
"I'm coming, I'm coming," the brilliance rushed over.
"Daddy, I'm coming, I'm coming. Radiance raised his hand excitedly.
Leng Fan gave him the whip and said, "Come on! If you want this spinning top to turn, you must master the skill, and you have to ...... the spinning top."
......
In the evening, still in this courtyard, the family sat around a table full of food.
"Li'er, this is the cooking skill your father has learned over the years, do you know? When he first entered the kitchen, he didn't even know the spatula, haha......" Yuan Qingrong smiled.
Leng Fan didn't expect that his father, who hadn't seen him for a few years, would give up his ability cultivation and become a houseman.
Leng Fan took a bite of plum cabbage and pork, and his mind was full of memories, the taste of memory.
"It's delicious, I haven't eaten such a good dish in many years. Leng Fan said.
After Li Hao heard this, a smile leaked from his stiff face.
"Manni, can't you be a lady?" Zhou Jiaqi complained that her daughter was eating like a robbery.
And Leng Fan said to Li Hao at this time: "Dad, thank you!"
Everyone was stunned at this moment, because Leng Fan had never shouted this word to Li Hao since he came back.
Li Hao was stunned, and his expression was in a trance.
"You're stupid! your son talks to you, but you ......" Yuan Qingrong cried, tears kept sliding down her eyes, and finally hugged Zhou Jiaqi.
Leng Fan continued: "Don't talk about the previous things, our family will live a good life in the future." If you two elders are willing, we will go to CD together after the New Year, and we will live together in the future. ”
