Chapter 446: A Woman's Choice (1st Update)
Li Manrui was still a little embarrassed when she heard the news of Grandma Lin's death, the two of them had never dealt with each other in their lives, and even if they met again, they couldn't say a few words.
Now that time has passed, Li Manrui has become a person with children, daughters, and grandchildren, and has experienced so many such and such things, of course, she also looks down on it a lot.
"Alas~ Your grandmother is about the same age, so it's okay to leave like this, and the things that I have worried about all my life have finally been put down.
If you can't go back this time, forget it, go back during the Qingming Festival, and go to your grandfather's grave, if it weren't for this old couple, just counting on Lin Musen, you would have starved to death anywhere, maybe the money I sent him over the years, he shouldn't have spent a cent on you. β
Li Manrui sighed, and she was just a little grateful to Grandma Lin, and this is just the fate of this life.
"Now that my grandmother is gone, I heard that the teacher who followed him also abandoned him, I really don't know how a person can get into the way he is today!"
Lin Zitan looked at Li Manrui and couldn't help but tell her about Lin Musen's current situation.
"Heh~ This is also your grandmother spoiled him, Lin Musen has always been a mother's treasure, if he was ...... at the beginning"
Li Manrui remembered that if she hadn't been pregnant with a child, Grandma Lin's high-minded posture would never have allowed her to enter the house.
But she herself has something wrong, and now that she is a mother, she has long understood Grandma Lin's original mood, and she can understand it to some extent.
"Alas...... Forget it, it's all over anyway, I insisted on marrying such a bad in-law at the beginning, and I deserve to be looked down upon by others, and I have nothing to do with others, and I don't have the face to blame others.
But Lin Musen, he deserves to find a tigress like Chen Qingqing, if it weren't for the female teacher, wouldn't they have passed so many years?
This is the so-called one thing down one thing, but I really didn't expect Chen Qingqing to be so strong, saying that divorce would be divorced from Lin Musen, I guess I can see his essence clearly!"
When Li Manrui spoke, the corners of her mouth subconsciously raised a light smile, as if she was not surprised that Lin Musen had such an ending.
"Grandpa and grandpa are also old, you asked the nanny at home to pay more attention to their bodies, fortunately, now they have come to us, and finally gave us a chance to fulfill our filial piety.
Don't be too tired of working on your own, I've hired an extra person to be your special assistant, let him do anything. By the way, how is Aunt Zhuang doing now? The last breakup should have hit her hard, right?"
Lin Zitan hadn't seen the Zhuang family's mother and son since the last New Year's dinner, and only occasionally learned about Zhuang Yijun's current situation from Emma's mouth, but he really didn't care about Zhuang Ning's affairs for a while.
"Zhuang Ning is also pitiful, she has been with Yijun's father all her life, so what love is she still looking forward to at this age, he~ There are few of you young people who can meet true love, not to mention our age?
She is too stupid and naΓ―ve, fortunately they haven't been together for a long time, I think Zhuang Ning has been sad for a while, and now she can't see any traces, so she probably dies!
Besides, after staying in the United States for so many years, unless there is a real lack of money, all Chinese Americans with status and status are looking for young girls, how can they find someone of the same age?
It's just this green card thing, and it's really enough for her to worry! Now it's not easy to join the church or something, and she still wants to go back to China to get a retirement or something, but she's afraid that she won't be able to get in if she goes back.
Speaking of this, Li Manrui shook her head helplessly.
---------------------------
When Lin Zitan came out of Li Manrui's office, he happened to meet Zhuang Ning coming out of the classroom with a pile of materials, and Lin Zitan hurriedly said hello to Zhuang Ning.
"Yo~ Why did Tan Tan come over today?, see your mother is here?" Zhuang Ning said with a smile on his face.
"Yes, come and see her, how are you doing? I heard Emma say that Yijun is about to return to China to make a movie?"
Lin Zitan asked politely.
"Alas~ Yes, she recently took two films, half of which were filmed in China and half were filmed here. I hope that she will really be popular one day, and I will go back to China directly to enjoy the happiness, hehe~"
Zhuang Ning's eyes were full of pride when he spoke.
"Yijun is delicate and spiritual, although she started late, but she focuses on hard work, I believe she will have a bright future, Aunt Zhuang, you are waiting to enjoy the blessings!"
Lin Zitan and Zhuang Ning chatted a few more words before they walked out of the office building of the Charity Foundation, got into the car driven by Xiao An, and walked all the way to the instant noodle shop.
Recently, the real estate development side has been temporarily suspended because the weather is getting colder and colder, and he told Lin Musen that he can't go back because the instant noodle shop is opening a chain store, and he has been running back and forth in several big cities in the eastern United States recently.
The infrastructure of the chain store is ready, and several stores are ready to open after the Gregorian New Year, although the business is not a big business, but it is more or less the work of Lin Zitan, and he hopes that he can make every project perfect.
When I returned to the No. 1 instant noodle shop, it was almost noon, Lin Zitan asked the kitchen master to bring him a bowl of instant noodles, and sat in one of the few seats in the store and ate it silently.
Emma will come over after work in a while, Emma is taking care of this small shop when Lin Zitan is busy recently, compared to the designer's work, she still prefers to toss her flowers and plants, so this shop is like a small noodle restaurant hidden in the flower shop.
"Boss, you said that at the annual meeting at the end of this year, can you bring your family members at that time?"
After Xiao Li handed over all the takeaways from the guests, he walked up to Lin Zitan and asked with a smile.
"Yes, last year's annual meeting said that you could bring it, but it was your kid who hid his daughter-in-law and didn't bring it out~"
After Lin Zitan finished eating, he took the tissue handed by Xiao Li and wiped his mouth, and said with a smile.
"Hehe, it's not that I'm hiding, it's that she doesn't like to show her face, she used to hide in the door of the house and not go out of the house, and even sent my son to school by her mother-in-law.
It's been a little better in the past two years, maybe because of the reasons I went out to work, and I slowly got along with people again, so I thought about a big scene like the annual meeting, and I also took her to see and see, hehe~. β
Xiao Li said, scratching his head uncomfortably.
"Okay, this year's annual meeting should be very lively, I asked Chu Feng to find a very big hotel, the kind of charter, there are also big red envelopes and lucky draws at the annual meeting, as long as you are present, you will have a chance to win the lottery." β
"Boss, can our kitchen master go?"
As soon as Lin Zitan finished speaking, a new Hebei master asked with a smile.
"I can go, as long as it is a noodle restaurant, a supermarket, a real estate company, and an employee who is close to my business, I can go to the New Year, and it will be lively and lively together. β
This year's harvest is good, except for the real estate development of Bronx, the investment income of other projects and companies is very good, Lin Zitan discussed with the heads of several companies, and everyone did a year-end annual meeting together.
In so many investment projects of Lin Zitan, except for the venture capital company, which is dominated by foreign employees, 70% of the employees of other units are Chinese and Chinese.
Everyone has worked hard for a year, and the big bosses have given out some money to give out red envelopes and draw lotteries, so that everyone can feel the joyful atmosphere of the Chinese New Year even though they are abroad.
It's just that Lin Zitan never expected that on the day of the annual meeting, the woman who attended the annual meeting with Xiao Li turned out to be an old acquaintance he hadn't seen in nearly 20 years!
