Chapter 157: Family Banquet
Coming to the door of an old-fashioned building, Lin Jiayi turned her head to look at Liang Chen with a little excitement, then straightened her clothes, and then solemnly pressed the doorbell. Liang Chen opened his mouth slightly stunned, but he didn't know how to stir up the blind date on this occasion. And this is a family home for retired cadres, don't look at the building is not very eye-catching, but those who can live in it are either some retired bigwigs, or old leaders who are deeply rooted in the officialdom.
Besides, Lin Jiayi's uncle didn't know how big an official title he had before he retired, and the person introduced by this strange old man was definitely not an ordinary person, and he was just a cloth feng shui master in the final analysis...... After thinking about it, I still feel that I was put into a trap by Lin Jiayi's girl.
After a while, the door was opened, but what caught my eye was an old acquaintance who had a relationship.
When the other party saw Liang Chen, he was also the same as Liang Chen, and was surprised: "It's you?"
"Hehe! Farewell to the mountain cemetery behind Qixinggang, don't Lin Lao come to be harmed?"
Liang Chen suddenly remembered that he had gone to the Qixinggang Houshan Cemetery in order to worship Ye Chunyi, a generation of feng shui masters, and met this Lin Lao, whose daughter died tragically at that time, and was buried in that cemetery because she could not enter the ancestral tomb. However, the insiders of the cemetery made a mistake about the number of the stone tablet and the tomb, and made a big oolong, but now I think about it, but I still remember it vividly.
"Liang Chen, I didn't expect to see you again, hehe!"
Lin Jianshe was the old man who took his granddaughter Tongtong to the mountain cemetery behind Qixinggang, and at this moment, his old face showed a look of joy, and he stretched out his hand to shake Liang Chen.
"Uncle, uncle!"
Unexpectedly, at this time, behind Lin Jianjian, the chubby little girl Tongtong drove a toy car towards Liang Chen, and when she saw Liang Chen, she reflexively got up and ran towards Liang Chen. Liang Chen's eyes lit up, and he immediately bent down and hugged Tongtong, under the stunned gaze of Lin Jiayi on the side, Liang Chen grinned: "Tongtong, do you want to be uncle?"
"Yes. ”
Tongtong replied in a milky voice, and then lay on Liang Chen's shoulder and refused to let go.
"You guys, you actually know each other?"
Lin Jiayi was completely in a state of blindfolding, and after a long time, she finally reacted and asked blankly.
Lin Jianshe just wanted to explain, but immediately thought of something, and immediately beckoned Liang Chen and Lin Jiayi into the house, and closed the door casually: "Jiayi, today your grandfather's eldest grandson Yaowu is also here, he is very busy in the army now, and he finally took a day off, and he will return to the army tomorrow morning, you ...... You guys have a good talk later, Yaowu! Who do you see coming? Hehe!" In the first few sentences, Lin Jianshe lowered his voice and said to Lin Jiayi, and in the last sentence, Lin Jianshe deliberately raised his voice and shouted in the direction of the living room.
In an instant, I saw a sturdy young man wearing a military uniform, walking out with regular steps, and when he saw Lin Jiayi, Sun Yaowu immediately smiled, and greeted him a little shyly: "Hello Jiayi, I haven't seen you for many years, are you okay?"
"Hello. ”
Lin Jiayi politely shook hands with Sun Yaowu: "When I was a child, I was at my uncle's house, and you only accompanied your grandfather once, do you still remember?"
"Of course I remember, you were six years old and I was eight years old, and it was twenty-two years and three months since now!"
Sun Yaowu seemed to have done his homework, especially when answering questions, but he raised his head, stood firmly, and answered solemnly.
"Okay, okay, you young people, sit down and talk slowly, I'll go prepare some dinner first. ”
Lin Jianshe just wanted to turn around, but he patted the back of his head, and said with a wry smile: "I'm really old, I'm really sorry, Yaowu, let me introduce to you, this is a year-old friend with me, his name is Liang Chen, Liang Chen, this is Sun Yaowu, the brigade commander of a certain unit." ”
Sun Yaowu looked at Liang Chen with a slight stunnedness, and then looked at Lin Jiayi opposite, although Lin Jianshe introduced Liang Chen as his friend, he obviously came with Lin Jiayi, they ...... After Sun Yaowu was slightly stunned, he hurriedly stretched out his hand and shook hands with Liang Chen, and at this moment, Liang Chen was still holding Tongtong with one hand, and shook Sun Yaowu with one hand, and said with a smile: "Brother Yaowu is only thirty years old and is already the brigade commander of the army, and his future is limitless!"
"I've won awards, I don't know what Mr. Liang does?"
Sun Yaowu doesn't seem to be a stuffy gourd, but he can still greet each other politely.
Liang Chen smiled and said, "I'm just a feng shui master, hehe!"
"Oh...... I see, it's hard to find a job nowadays, but there are many people who like to engage in feng shui metaphysics to make a living, if Mr. Liang doesn't mind, I know some friends who can help Mr. Liang find a stable job. ”
Sun Yaowu replied politely, although his words were very sincere, it was obvious that he wanted to show his excellent side in front of Lin Jiayi, and deliberately pressed Liang Chen.
"Hehe! Thank you Brother Yaowu for your kindness, I can barely solve the problem of food and clothing now, if there is a real need, it is not too late to ask Brother Yaowu for help. ”
Liang Chen smiled politely, and then smiled at Tongtong who was holding him in his arms and said, "Tongtong, will my uncle take you to play?"
"Good. ”
Tongtong nodded obediently, and then, Liang Chen walked away with Tongtong in his arms.
And here, Lin Jianshe also put on an apron and went into the kitchen, Sun Yaowu saw that everyone had walked away, so he turned around and said to Lin Jiayi with a smile: "Jiayi, what are you doing now?"
On the balcony, Liang Chen and Tongtong were playing a game of catching the ball, Liang Chen was not interested in knowing the movement in the living room, but from the corner of his eye, he couldn't help but sweep over there, and he didn't know what Lin Jiayi and Sun Yaowu were talking about, and finally Lin Jiayi stood up and went into the kitchen to help, while Sun Yaowu was sitting on the sofa with an embarrassed face. Liang Chen smiled and continued to play with Tongtong.
After a while, Sun Yaowu's figure appeared in front of the balcony, his eyes were leveled into the distance, and after a long time, he said lightly: "I'm sorry just now, I just don't know how to please girls, so I used despicable tricks, listened to the guidance of others, and deliberately expressed myself, who knew that now it has become such an embarrassing situation, Jiayi thinks I am superficial, I also know, I don't have high emotional intelligence, in short, what I just said, Mr. Liang don't mind." ”
"What Brother Yaowu said, it's just a few words, why bother, hehe!"
Liang Chen smiled calmly, then let Tongtong play by himself, then got up and came to Sun Yaowu's side, and stood still: "However, your performance just now is indeed a little superficial, even if you want to show yourself, there is no need to deliberately belittle others in front of Jiayi to achieve the goal, Jiayi is different from other girls, and will not intentionally chase competitive people." If Brother Yaowu can show such a frank side, Xu Jiayi will not be too disgusted with Brother Yaowu. ”
Originally, after Sun Yaowu's oppressive trick came out, Liang Chen really didn't have a good impression of him, but what Sun Yaowu said just now was indeed like a gentleman.
"Thank you Mr. Liang for your advice, since Mr. Liang is so familiar with Jiayi, you might as well mediate for me in front of Jiayi, and ask Mr. Liang for help!"
Sun Yaowu immediately turned around, looked at Liang Chen, and made a request very sincerely.
"This ......"
Originally, he accompanied Lin Jiayi to withdraw from his family, but he was asked by the other party to say that he and Lin Jiayi had achieved good things. This mandarin duck turned out to be a matchmaker, what's this?
"If Mr. Liang feels embarrassed, please ask Mr. Liang to maintain a neutral attitude, everything is up to me to pursue Jiayi, speaking of which, Jiayi and I are also childhood sweethearts, plus the same age, in this world, it is really difficult to find a woman more suitable for me than Jiayi, of course, if I can get together with Jiayi, I will definitely treat Jiayi well, I will make her happy forever!"
Sun Yaowu said more sincerely.
"I think it would be better for Brother Yaowu to say these words in front of Jiayi, hehe!"
Liang Chen smiled indifferently, picked up Tongtong and walked into the living room.
I didn't expect this seemingly loyal Sun Yaowu to play such a hand, I thought he was sincerely apologizing, but who knew that he was retreating and advancing, so that Liang Chen could maintain a neutral attitude, this one could force Liang Chen to not be able to stir up the matter between him and Lin Jiayi, and the other could also make Liang Chen's thoughts about Lin Jiayi completely shattered. This person keeps saying that he has low emotional intelligence, but in fact, he seems to have more crooked intestines in his stomach than anyone else.
Although Liang Chen didn't mind others playing with his mind, he didn't like others to play with his mind very much, so his good impression of Sun Yaowu was completely reduced to zero.
Half an hour later, Lin Jianshe filled a table with delicious food, and invited everyone to the table, during the banquet, everyone seemed to be speechless, each with a different mind, Lin Jianshe and Liang Chen drank wine, and from time to time for Sun Yaowu to eat vegetables, but Sun Yaowu for Lin Jiayi to pick up vegetables, Lin Jiayi turned to Liang Chen, and showed a very intimate move with Liang Chen, which not only surprised Sun Yaowu opposite, but also embarrassed!
And Lin Jianshe on the side seemed to have reacted at this moment, no wonder her niece would bring Liang Chen to come, and she dared to love the two of them...... Lin Jianshe secretly smiled bitterly, raised his head and poured a glass of wine, got up and said with a smile: "You eat slowly, I'll coax Tongtong to sleep first, Tongtong comes, grandpa will take you to sleep!" Lin Jianshe picked up Tongtong and left the table, leaving only three young people sitting at the table and looking at each other.
