Luoxue company is on holiday, and every year it is a real holiday for the New Year, which can be a few days, Luoxue is a little bit looking forward to the New Year, and the parents on both sides of the New Year will be together, because this is a real family reunion, she called Xiao Yue before leaving, and told him to go to H City for the New Year, after all, this man is a different existence in her heart.
And she also knows that after the Chinese New Year, they will no longer be able to chat freely as usual, and they can call at any time, and Luoxue is a little helpless.
H city, the prosperity is still the same, the only thing that has not changed for hundreds of years is its prosperity, it is very old, but it is still boiling, everywhere is bustling, the traffic is busy, the embassies of various countries have become major banks, and the nightlife is extremely rich.
Because the whole family of the Lu family is going to celebrate the New Year in H City, all the relatives and friends of the Lu family have been notified to gather together at the home together, the chef of the family needs to ask someone to help, which can be busy The old housekeeper Aunt Wang and the chef Uncle Cai, both of them are basically old people in the house, especially Uncle Cai, a 60-year-old person, he needs to gather his apprentices and grandchildren to come over to help, usually the family also falls father and Cold Autumn Aunt Cai Uncle and a few of them, this is good, they have to prepare things for the main table 48 tables, side table 76 tables, this is to be used on Chinese New Year's Eve, according to the financial resources of the family to calculate the time is still in timeγ
Luo Xue took Lu's father and Lu mother back to H City in advance, and Luo Baixue was very happy to see her sister and daughter coming back together, and took Leng Hanqiu to pick up the airport in person.
After dinner, the family was naturally divided into two factions, the two men had endless words, the two women also had endless words, Aunt Wang had no time to talk to Luoxue because she had to prepare the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Luoxue felt embarrassed, but very happy.
Leng Hanqiu saw Luo Xue sitting alone, so he dragged Luo Qiu Ling, and the two walked to Luo Xue's side and sat down.
Leng Hanqiu: "Xue'er, I'm talking to my aunt about what happened when you were a child, you were cute and naughty when you were a child, but unfortunately your mother didn't see it, you see, how cute you were when you were chubby." Leng Hanqiu held Luo Xue's childhood photo album in her hand, and Luo Xue didn't know that Leng Hanqiu still had her childhood photo album.
Luoxue looked up at Leng Hanqiu, they have hardly met in recent years, although Leng Hanqiu is well maintained, people in their 60s actually look less than 50 years old, without the coldness and alienation of a few years ago, their eyes are full of love, Luoxue's heart moved, and sighed in his heart, age is older after all, people will change over time, and the older they are, the softer their hearts will become.
Luo Xue said with a smile: "Yes, Mom, when I was a child, I often dragged my mother's braids, and I had to drive with the braids." Thinking of the naughtiness of childhood, Luoxue herself smiled.
Leng Hanqiu: "It's a pity that I don't have braids, and I don't have any of them now." β
Luoxue laughed: "Mom, even if you have it now, I won't pull it, it will hurt." β
Luo Qiuling: "Sister-in-law, you see that Xue'er is so old now, and she has a successful career, we should be happy, not to mention that naughty little girl." β
Leng Hanqiu: "Yes, Qiu Ling, we are all older, and now the children are out, we should be happy, by the way, Xue'er, your father is old, it is impossible to keep up, your brother is unwilling to come back to manage the company, we only have you in the family, you need to pick up the burden of the family, we have seen your ability in the past few years, come back and take over your father's work after a while." β
"Mom, is that what you mean or what Daddy meant?" said Luoxue in surprise.
"It's what we mean personally, and we've been talking about it for a long time. Leng Hanqiu said
"However, my company still has something to do, and I don't want to give up. β
She hasn't stayed in H City for so many years, and she doesn't know the situation of the family, and she rarely interacts with Leng Hanqiu, I don't know what Leng Hanqiu's idea is, although there is a contradiction with Leng Hanqiu, but she has never targeted her, and now she has just returned home not long before she asks such a big question, Luoxue will inevitably think more, but because it is the New Year, Luoxue just wants the family to stay quietly and enjoy this rare family fun.
"Mom, let's not talk about things at work, it's rare for us to be relaxed, don't talk about these things, okay, I'm finally back. The falling snow said to Leng Hanqiu with a little coquettishness.
"Okay, okay, don't talk about it, let's go to the Bund for a walk, the night view of the Bund will never get tired of seeing, let's accompany your aunt to walk more, and you, I remember your favorite to listen to: Bund 18, I can sing it now, and I will sing it to you later." β
Luoxue's eyes were a little moist when she heard Leng Hanqiu's words, and she remembered the songs she liked to sing.
The three of them went shopping together, the prosperity of H City is not comparable to Shencheng, and they walked along the way, and the cold autumn did not stop, and they kept talking about the situation of the company in the ears of Luoxue.
The days passed quickly, the children who left home returned, and the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve basically gathered the high-level people of the family.
This is a huge family, Luo Xue has lived in the Luo family for so many years, never knew that the Luo family would be so huge, the old and the young, the generation, the young, the young, the domestic and foreign, this time it is considered to be insightful, but, it seems that everyone is very unfamiliar with her, the eldest lady of the family, and she didn't know anything about them before, if it wasn't for Leng Hanqiu to tell her some, and then send her information, let her make up for it, otherwise she didn't know, when she looked at the information, Luoxue felt the strength of the Luo family.
In the morning, Leng Hanqiu said to Luoxue: "Xue'er, I know that you are very open to everything and are not informal, but this year is a major gathering for the family, which is related to the fate of our family, so I hope you will take up 100% of your energy to pay attention to this party, and you must be very particular about your manners and clothing." This is a dress made for you, you try it out, wear it at night. β
Luo Xue was surprised, they set a dress for her, how did they know her size? And without her consent? But seeing Leng Hanqiu's solemn appearance, Luo Xue didn't say anything, and took the clothes on Leng Hanqiu's body: "Thank you, Mom." You've thought so well!"
She doesn't have a very good impression of the family, and she came back to do what a daughter should do, people are older, and they won't be full of thorns like when they were young, her hatred for cold autumn and falling snow has not completely disappeared, but she doesn't want to mention it again, she can't do anything for her mother, so it's the only way, after all, she has the snow on her body, and when she came back to H City, she wanted to see the mother who gave birth to her, but she was afraid of sweeping everyone's interest, so she didn't say anything, she just wanted to wait for the New Year to go again.
"You go and see if it's appropriate. Let me see it too. β
"Try it now?" asked Leng Hanqiu uncertainly.
"yes, go ahead and show mom. "Leng Hanqiu has some expectations
"Okay!" Luoxue took the clothes back to the room, opened, a little surprised, this dress is simple but not simple, three-dimensional petal mesh pure hand-embroidered, slightly elastic, low V-shaped open chest and shoulders, and the stitching is actually embroidered with gold thread, and even with the Chanel LOGO, this dress should not be able to do it for a while, she pressed the question in her heart, put on the clothes, a little tight, but she outlined her figure just right, looking at herself in the mirror She couldn't believe that this was herself.
People say that horses rely on saddles, people rely on clothes, although the snow has not been rich and expensive for many years, but the clothes are never bad, this dress has made her spirit and temperament a whole level.
She sighed secretly: Falling home is really incomparable, and I am afraid that she has been poor all her life and has worked hard all her life to achieve a situation that she can't achieve.
She walked out of the room, Leng Hanqiu looked at her, tears flashed in her eyes, she stepped forward and stroked her cheek and said, "I didn't expect that you would wear this dress more beautiful than her, I have kept her for decades." It's finally back to its rightful owner!"
"What did you say?" asked Luoxue in surprise
"You're dressed very nicely, go take it off, wear it at night, and besides, you'll clean up and go to your mother's grave later." Leng Hanqiu didn't say much
"Sweep the grave, go to sweep the grave of your mother?" Luo Xue couldn't react, she was at home for ten years, and no one mentioned her mother.
"Haven't you been wanting to go for a few days? I'll go with you with your dad later. Leng Hanqiu said transparently
"So, is my brother going?" Luoxue didn't know what they meant.
"Go!"
In the past few days since I came back to H City, the bombs of the cold autumn have exploded one after another and made the snow fall a little frightened, she can't react, she doesn't know what she thinks in her heart, and she doesn't bother to care, after all, the days they live together won't be too long, so they should be happy with her.
After breakfast in the morning, a group of four people went to sweep the grave. The atmosphere was somewhat heavy, but there was not much sadness left.
Luo Baixue said to Luo Bai: "Bai, is the work okay?"
Luobai glanced at Luoxue: "It's all good, it's a bit difficult to fight corruption, and it's still in the early stages." β
"Did Pei Lin mess up with you?" asked Luo Baixue
"No, it's just not sober enough. Luobai replied
"Do you want to find a way to transfer him out?"
"If you want him to come back to help you, I don't object. "Falling white
"Come back too, your brother will have concerns over there. Luo Baixue said
"Dad, I've been walking properly in the past few years, and I don't think I will affect my brother. Luoxue said
"You've been wayward for so many years. How long are you going to be willful?" Luo Baixue was a little annoyed
"What do you mean I've been willful for so many years?Have I caused you trouble?Whether it's my brother or you, have I ever called you?Does anyone know that I'm your daughter of Luo Baixue?" Luo Xue asked sharply.
"Bai Xue, you don't say a word, it's rare for our family to be together, Xue'er hasn't been home for a few years, it's hard to come back, don't quarrel. Leng Hanqiu said,
Luoxue's hostility towards Leng Hanqiu's heart has not decreased at all, but she is maintaining the harmony on the surface, which Leng Hanqiu understands, but she tries her best to get closer to Luoxue, she has no children, and she will dream of Luoxue and Bai Yu'er in her dreams when she has time, thinking of Bai Yu'er's heart aches faintly, Bai Yu'er is gone, but the people who stay have to endure the pain and suffering of living, she married Luo Baixue and had no children in her life, Luo Baixue cut off her idea of wanting children for Bai Yuer's two children.
"Hanqiu, if you want to talk about it for so many years, I can't help you the most!"
Luo Baixue pulled Leng Hanqiu's hand and stroked it in the palm of his hand, they are over half a hundred years old, they have worked hard in the mall for half their lives, they have seen everything, they have seen everything, Bai Yu'er has been gone for a long time, and now that their children have children, he should also let go and cherish the people in front of him, Leng Hanqiu is actually a good woman, staying by his side and never abandoning,
After Bai Yuer left, he was in great pain, it was Leng Hanqiu who helped him come out, and it was Leng Hanqiu who took care of Luo's enterprise for three years, if Leng Hanqiu was willing, then Leng Hanqiu was definitely a first-class enterprise leader, but Leng Hanqiu was willing to stand behind him.
"What do you say, our family is not all good, you see that Xiaobai and Xiaoxue are very good, and we are worthy of Yu'er!"
Luoxue watched the interaction between the two of them, and suddenly felt a sadness and chill in her heart, how many secrets do they have? What kind of drama are they going to play? Luoxue was caught off guard, and she didn't expect to come back in such a situation.
