42 Supper
Lin Yilong's social circle, domestic and foreign are separated.
This is actually very normal, just as the social circle of a person's high school classmates is often separated from the social circle cultivated in junior high school, unless it is a few good enough to be called "friends", there will be some kind of "cross-circle" social possibility.
In any case, Lin Yilong has benefited greatly from the separation of domestic and foreign countries: Lin Yilong's partners and friends in Europe do not know Lin Yilong's partners and friends in China, so the British believe that Lin Yilong's wealth comes from the East and cannot figure it out, while those who are familiar with Lin Yilong in China think that his wealth comes from the West, and there is no way to figure it out, so that except for the tax collector who is often declared foreign income, no one has the interest to investigate the whereabouts of Lin Yilong's money, and even Lin Yilong's parents cannot figure out what their son's status is in Europeγ
Katie may be an exception, but she is under Lin Yilong's strict control, so there will be no problems.
After nearly 16 hours of flying and transiting, the Lin family passed through customs, took a taxi, and entered the Bracken Forest Farm.
The building where Lin Yilong housed Lin's father and mother was not the main building of the forest farm, but was arranged in a house on the edge of the forest farm near the town of Mastach. If you still have a vague impression, the location of this new house is the piece of land that Lin Yilong overlooks the entire Ogmo Valley from the Masach Workers' Club, which has now been built and renovated, and has just passed the living environment evaluation more than ten days ago.
"It's a holiday home. Father Lin sighed.
"This is not a holiday home. Lin Yilong explained, "It's just an ordinary house, if you are specific, it's a quiet house." β
"You live here?" asked Mother Lin, who immediately noticed the newness of the walls and furnishings, "everything here looks new. β
"No, I live in the forest farm building behind the mountain. Lin Yilong said, "You can live here with confidence, the infrastructure is complete, and the supermarket is not far away." β
Seeing that Lin Yilong didn't want to explain too much, Lin's father and Lin's mother scattered around to carefully familiarize themselves with the small building that Lin Yilong had carefully prepared for their retirement, and it could be seen that Lin Yilong had put a lot of thought into it, although the furnishings of the bedroom on the second floor were new, the layout was similar to the already familiar bedroom, and even all the personal belongings of Lin's mother and Lin's father who had packed and mailed to the UK in advance had been placed in the wardrobe and cupboard in different categories.
The details are impeccable.
Half an hour later, Lin's father and mother, who had returned their belongings and freshened up, came to find their son, who was installing a TV set-top box in the living room.
"I'd like to introduce you to some people later, and I hope they'll be accepted by you. Lin Yilong suddenly spoke in Russian.
"Someone, who is it" Mother Lin looked at Father Lin suspiciously, wanting to know what the hell Lin Yilong was doing from Father Lin.
Father Lin shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either.
"You'll know when the time comes. Lin Yilong said that he couldn't confess to his parents about his shortcomings here.
Later, Lin Yilong drove his parents through the path in an all-terrain vehicle and went deep into the depths of the Bracken Forest Farm.
Vera received a notice from Lin Yilong in the morning, and as usual, she and Nadia were at the door of the house to greet her lover's family.
"This is Nadia, this is Vera. Lin Yilong introduced the identical Yeon sisters to Lin's father and Lin's mother, still using Russian, but then converted it into Chinese, and slowly whispered, "My lover ....."
"What a beautiful man. Father Lin heard Lin Yilong's introduction and greeted Sister Yeang, "It's a pleasure to meet you." β
Father Lin's compliment made the Yeang sisters a little nervous, and they timidly shook hands with Father Lin.
"You're so beautiful. As if to corroborate her husband's statement, Mother Lin also said coldly, and then glanced at Lin Yilong, who was avoiding everyone's gaze with her spare eyes.
"Good uncle and aunt. As an elder sister, Nadia greeted Lin's father and mother with a smile, and then said to Lin Yilong: "The supper is ready, see if it's time to serve." β
A few people walked towards the restaurant, which had never been used before, and Father Lin looked at the layout of the forest farm with some timidity, which was a bit too grand for a residence, making it a little difficult for Father Lin to adapt.
After entering the restaurant, Lin Yilong monopolized the short side of the table, arranging for his parents to sit on his left and Sister Yeang to sit on his right.
On the one hand, it was unfamiliar, and on the other hand, everyone at the table ate silently, rarely making a sound, until Vera found that the spoon used by Father Lin was a large Russian-style spoon, with a familiar style and pattern.
"This spoon seems to be the same as Daddy's. Vera whispered to Nadia.
Nadia also glanced at it, knowing that Vera was right.
Seeing Nadia's puzzled gaze, Father Lin explained, "I bought it when I went to Moscow for a meeting, so it's not surprising. β
Nadia nodded.
"Then what are you all doing now?" asked Lin Mu.
"At this stage, I am still a student, mainly in materials engineering. Nadia replied, "My sister is Vera a medical student and is doing an internship, and I am a PhD student studying materials. β
"Then Nadia, are you planning to enter the research institute or the factory later?"
"Institute. Nadia and Lin Yilong talked about this issue, and Lin Yilong agreed.
"What about your parents?" Lin Mu continued to ask one question after another.
"is an associate professor and administrator at a state university. Nadia did not hesitate to answer the question raised by Lin Mu.
Mother Lin nodded slightly, it seemed that Lin Yilong's concept of mate selection was not bad, but she still glared at Lin Yilong.
Lin Yilong, as the central character, should have been the link of this meal, but the actual situation was like an ostrich, burying his face in his rice bowl and avoiding eye contact with everyone.
This meal was really unpalatable enough, and Lin Yilong seemed to want to continue to stuff, but the barley porridge in the bowl, the vegetable puree on the plate, and the fried and marinated lard were limited.
"I'm here to make a toast. Lin Yilong had to bite the bullet, stand up against everyone's eyes, and raise the canned Coke in his hand that had been almost drunk, "We welcome my father and mother to live here here, and I hope my father and mother can have a good time here." β
This welcome speech was very sloppy, but Father Lin and Mother Lin would not stand up to their children's words, and the Yeang sisters naturally would not disobey Lin Yilong's intentions, and raised their glasses one after another, ending this awkward atmosphere of the "family dinner" - only Lin Yilong, the owner of the forest farm, has this right to speak.
