Chapter Eighty-Three: Careful Thinking
Lin Jing was originally a joke, but unexpectedly, Jian Er thought seriously for a moment, and then replied, "Don't believe it." ”
Jian Er's appearance made Lin Jing not know how to answer, she looked at Jian Er and couldn't help but smile deeply.
Jian Er saw Lin Jing smiling at him, and only felt that Lin Jing's smile was so good-looking, which made his heart beat faster, his face was slightly red, and his brain was blank for a moment, so he couldn't stop smiling at Lin Jing.
So, Jian Ran's parents, who were one step slower than Jian Er, saw after going downstairs that their son and Lin Jing were looking at each other and laughing.
In Jian Ran's family, there are a total of four people, Jian Ran's father, Jian Sheng, Jian Ran's mother, Shen Qing, Jian Ran, and Jian Ran's younger brother, Jian Er.
As the saying goes, the son knows the father, which means that the dragon gives birth to the dragon, the phoenix gives birth to the phoenix, the son of the mouse will make holes, what kind of person raises what kind of child.
Specifically, in a family, you can know what kind of person the parents are by looking at what kind of person the child is.
Are there any exceptions? There must be, but it doesn't include Jian Ran's family.
Therefore, as long as you look at Jian Ran's temperament and character, you can know the personalities of Jian Sheng, Shen Qing and Jian Er.
Jian Ran's family are all warm and good-natured real people, and they are very enthusiastic and sincere.
When Jian Ran and Shen Qing saw Lin Jing, they immediately won enthusiastically.
Shen Qing patted Jian Er and asked with a smile, "Your sister Jing'er is here, why didn't you hurry up and bring someone up to sit down, but instead stood here and giggled?"
When Jian Er heard this, his originally reddish face instantly became even redder.
He opened his mouth and explained to Shen Qing: "I haven't seen Sister Jing'er for a long time, and when I see it today, I am too happy and stupid." ”
As he spoke, he hurriedly looked away from Lin Jing's face and turned his head away, for fear of revealing his little thoughts.
That's right, he has careful thoughts about Lin Jing.
That is, he likes Lin Jing, he likes it before, likes it now, likes it in the future, and never stops.
Shen Qing didn't notice Jian Er's abnormality, she looked Lin Jing up and down, frowned slightly, and said quite distressedly: "Jing'er, you have lost weight, are you too busy with work?" ”
Lin Jing smiled and nodded, "Okay, Aunt Shen." ”
Only then did Shen Qing laugh again and said, "However, although I have lost a little weight, I am getting better and better-looking, Jing'er, you tell me about you, you are obviously in your twenties, why hasn't your eighteenth change in the female college has not been completed?"
Lin Jing was praised and a little embarrassed, but Shen Qing's statement was really interesting, and she couldn't help laughing again.
Jian Sheng also smiled and said to Lin Jing: "Jing'er, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
Lin Jing hurriedly nodded at Jian Sheng and said, "Uncle Jian, yes, I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss it very much." ”
Jian Sheng touched Shen Qing with his elbow and said, "Alas, what about your son, aren't you the same?" Keep letting Jing'er stand here and talk to us, what do you think, quickly take Jing'er up to sit down." ”
Shen Qing suddenly came back to his senses, clapped his hands with a smile and said, "Oh, that's it, I'm so happy to see Jing'er's patronage, my brain is gone." ”
Shen Qing took Lin Jing upstairs, and Lin Jing was about to bend down to carry something, but was stopped by Shen Qing.
Shen Qing pointed at Jian Sheng and Jian Er, and said with a smile: "Jing'er, you are used to being independent, there are two big men here, where can we still let the two of us do it, if you work hard, you have to make a move." ”
Hearing this, Lin Jing smiled and nodded.
Shen Qing is not wrong in this sentence, she is indeed used to being independent, and she has no habit of relying on others, I don't know if it is good or bad.
Shen Qing saw that Jian Sheng and Jian Er's hands were full, and they were about to carry all the things that Lin Jing brought, and couldn't help but say to Lin Jing: "Jing'er, the next time someone comes, the intention will come, don't bring so many things, it's not easy to make money, save some flowers." ”
If this is said by someone else, it may be polite, but what Shen Qing said must be sincere.
Lin Jing's heart warmed, and she didn't refute, and hurriedly nodded in response: "Got it, Aunt Shen." ”
I promised at this time, and next time I came over, I should bring it anyway.
Shen Qing, Jian Sheng, and Jian Er hugged Lin Jing upstairs.
Jian Ran's home is also in an old community, with a total of five floors, narrow stairs, no elevator, and Jian Ran's family lives on the third floor in the middle.
If you talk about the age of construction, this place is older than the community where Lin Jing's home is located.
However, Jian Ran's parents have already bought a new house in the newly built community in the new urban area, and put down their words: the daughters and sons are the same, the family property is divided equally, and they can choose to have a new house alone, or they can choose to add a large amount of money to the old house, and when the time comes, they will go back to the old house in their hometown directly.
Lin Jing appreciates this very much.
is not like Luo Changping and Deng Cuimin, who are patriarchal, and Luo Junjie has been biased since he was a child.
Coming to the door of Jian Ran's house, Shen Qing took out the key to open the door.
Lin Jing noticed that the opposite door of Jian Ran's house was wide open, and it could be seen that there was a master carrying furniture inside, and from time to time, the sound of an electric drill came.
Jian Er noticed Lin Jing looking at the other side, lowered his voice, and explained to Lin Jing: "The house on the other side has only been sold for a long time, and the new ones are a pair of old men and old ladies, who said that they lived here when they were young, and then sold the house and moved away, and now they are old and very nostalgic, so they moved back to live." ”
Lin Jing nodded and responded, "Oh, so that's the case." ”
For this kind of nostalgic mood, she can understand it very well, for example, her and Luo Qiuying's current home, although the house is old, but, after all, after living for so many years, she must be reluctant to sell it and leave it completely.
The old house carries too many memories and feelings of the past.
Presumably, the old couple who had just moved over must have been forced to sell their house when they sold their house.
Otherwise, you wouldn't have to go through much trouble to come back now.
Taking advantage of the moment when Shen Qing opened the door, Jian Sheng turned around and walked into the opposite door.
Then, the sound of Jian Sheng talking to people came from inside.
I only heard Jian Sheng speak: "It's very fast, I can finish it today." ”
The other party replied, "Yes, it should be done before noon." ”
Lin Jing heard that the person was a man, his voice was very young, low and magnetic, very good, obviously not the old man in the old couple, it should be the descendants of the old couple, who came to help.
It's just that what made her slightly surprised and puzzled was that the person's voice sounded very familiar to her, but for a while, she couldn't remember who it was.
Jian Sheng spoke again: "In the future, we will be door-to-door neighbors, if you need help, open your mouth at any time, don't be polite!"
The other party responded with a smile: "Hey, I know, thank you Uncle Jian!"
Jian Sheng came out of the opposite door house and followed him into the house.
Shen Qing asked Lin Jing to sit down on the sofa in the living room, Jian Sheng and Jian Er put their things away, and prepared tea, juice, melon seeds and fruits, all of which were brought to the living room table, and also sat down on the sofa in the living room together, chatting with Lin Jing.
At the beginning, it was mainly Shen Qing who said that it was to ask Lin Jing and Jian Ran about their work and life, on the one hand, to show concern, and on the other hand, to see if there was anything that could help.
Later, it became mainly Jian Er who asked Lin Jing a lot about Dingsheng Group.
And Jian Sheng, from beginning to end, kept smiling and nodding from time to time, becoming a most loyal listener.
Lin Jing also realized that Jian Er was asking about Dingsheng Group, so she asked with a smile: "Jian Er, do you plan to work in Dingsheng Group in the future?"
Jian Er immediately nodded and said: "Yes, I am already in my junior year this year, and when the courses in the first half of my junior year are over, there will be very few courses in the second half of my junior year, and I will start internship and social practice to lay the foundation for finding a job after graduation." ”
Hearing this, Lin Jing nodded and said: "Well, Dingsheng Group is really good, not only famous, but also not famous, you can learn a lot in it, if you can enter Dingsheng Group for internship, whether you choose to stay in Dingsheng Group in the future, or choose to work in other companies, this internship experience will add a lot of points to you." ”
"yes. Jane smiled and nodded, agreeing.
However, in addition to the above, there is another reason why he wants to enter Dingsheng Group, that is, Lin Jing is also in Dingsheng Group.
He wanted to be closer to Lin Jing, closer, and use his strength to prove to Lin Jing that he was no longer the younger brother who needed someone to take care of, but a man who could be relied on.
Lin Jing naturally couldn't guess Jian Er's thoughts, and her attention was all on how to help Jian Er successfully enter Dingsheng Group for internship.
She said some key points to Jane, and finally spoke: "There is still half a year to go, don't be too anxious and nervous, I will help you pay attention to the internship, your sister and I are there, if you need help at that time, feel free to speak." ”
Seeing that Lin Jing cared about him so much, Jian Er felt warm in her heart, and smiled when she heard the words: "Okay, Sister Jing'er, I won't be polite." ”
The group of people chatted and chatted very happily, and they didn't think it had been long, but when they looked at the time, it was already noon, and it was time for lunch.
Lin Jing didn't want to trouble Jian Ran's family, so she didn't want to stay for dinner, so she was ready to get up and go home.
Seeing this, Shen Qing naturally couldn't do it, she grabbed Lin Jing and said enthusiastically: "Jing'er, it's not easy to come here, your uncle and aunt don't even care about your meal, so how can you say it, let's go out to eat, it's not troublesome." ”
Jian Sheng also hurriedly got up and said: "That's it, go out to eat, it's delicious and convenient, your uncle and I and your aunt are not good at cooking, so don't embarrass your sense of taste, let's have a lively and festive life, why don't you go eat hot pot?"
Jian Er also hurriedly responded: "Yes, just listen to my dad, go to eat hot pot, out of the main road of the community, just opened a new hot pot restaurant, it is said that the taste is good, very clean, and the service is very good." ”
When Shen Qing heard this, he immediately rolled his eyes at Jian Sheng and Jian Er and said, "You two old men, twitter, what to eat at noon, then Jing'er has to decide!"
After that, her face changed, she looked at Lin Jing with a smile, and asked, "Jing'er, tell your aunt, what do you want to eat?"
Lin Jing was infected by the lively and joyful atmosphere of Jian Ran's family, and couldn't help laughing, and hurriedly said: "Just hot pot, it's delicious, and it has a unique atmosphere!"
scheduled to eat hot pot for lunch, and Jian Ran's family took Lin Jing to prepare to go out.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Who?" Jian Sheng asked casually.
"It's me. The other party's voice was the young man who had been talking to Jian Sheng in the opposite door before.
Jian Sheng stepped forward to open the door and asked with a smile, "Is there anything you need help with?"
"Not really. The young man smiled and said: "Uncle Jane, that's the case, these days, it's really troublesome for you, you've helped so much, and besides, we'll become door-to-door neighbors in the future, my grandfather and my grandmother want to invite your whole family to have a meal together, one is to express gratitude, and the second is the most important, that is, everyone will follow this opportunity to eat, chat with each other, and be familiar with each other." ”
As he spoke, he paused, as if he was worried about Jian Sheng's refusal, and added: "It's not a big meal, just on the road out of the community, there is a newly opened hot pot restaurant, which is said to taste good, the service is good, and it is clean. ”
"That's right. Jian Sheng was a little embarrassed, he turned sideways, looked back at Shen Qing, and said, "However, our family has a guest today, I'm afraid, it's not very convenient." ”
Jian Sheng turned to the side and immediately exposed the young man who had been blocked by him from the door.
Jian Ran's home is another old-fashioned house, and from the sofa in the living room, you can directly see the door.
When Lin Jing saw the appearance of the young man, she immediately showed a look of great surprise.
"Are you here? It's okay, let's go together. As he spoke, the young man followed Jian Sheng's gaze into the living room, and then he saw Lin Jing.
The moment his eyes fell on Lin Jing, his brain suddenly became blank, and his face showed a look of great surprise, only his mouth was still following the previous instructions of his brain, and he continued: "Just when there are more people, it will be more lively and more atmospheric. ”
When the words fell, Lin Jing and the young man looked at each other, their expressions were extremely surprised, and then, they became extremely surprised.
"Senior Meng!" Lin Jing showed a big smile and hurriedly stepped forward.
"Lin Jing!" The young man also showed a big smile and walked up to greet Lin Jing.
Lin Jing then remembered, no wonder she felt that voice was so familiar just now, it turned out that the other party turned out to be her senior in college, Meng Beijing.
Meng Beijing is the senior of Lin Jing University, two terms higher than Lin Jing.
At the beginning, Meng Beijing was a man of the year on the university campus, good looking, tall, not only a top student, but also super good in sports, the president of the school's badminton club, according to rumors, his family background is also very unusual, and he is a character with a very background.
is so good, of course, Meng Beijing was rated as one of the three major school grasses on campus, if you have to rank the three major school grasses according to one, two, three, Meng Beijing should be in the first place.
Thinking back then, Meng Beijing has always been Jian Ran's dream lover, and Jian Ran even said: If you marry someone, you should marry Meng Beijing, otherwise what will you do if you marry!
Lin Jing and Meng Beijing have a very good relationship, I think that when Lin Jing joined the school's badminton club, Meng Beijing recruited her.
Later, everyone trained together and participated in competitions together, Lin Jing was very talented in badminton, so she communicated more with Meng Beijing, and slowly became familiar with it, Meng Beijing helped Lin Jing a lot, and Lin Jing was grateful.
Later, Meng Beijing graduated, and suddenly cut off contact with his former classmates, and it is said that he was sent by his family to join the army, and the management of external communications is very strict.
At that time, Lin Jing was in her third year, not only with heavy courses, but also with internships and about to graduate, which was also busy.
In this way, the two never contacted each other again.
But no one expected that the two of them would meet again in such an unexpected way today.
"Senior Meng. Lin Jing smiled and said, "What a coincidence, I really didn't expect that the old couple on the other side of the door turned out to be Senior Meng's grandfather and grandmother." ”
"yes, what a coincidence. Meng Beijing also smiled and asked, "Is Uncle Jian's family your relatives?"
"Well, it's not a blood relative, but it's better than a blood relative. Lin Jing replied with a smile: "Jian Ran, my good friend, do you remember? Uncle Jian's family is Jian Ran's family. ”
"Oh, Jian Ran!" Meng Beijing suddenly realized: "That cute little girl who has been with you all the time, it turns out that Jian Ran is Uncle Jian's daughter, it's really fate." ”
"yes. Lin Jing couldn't help but smile deepened.
Meng Beijing used this word to describe Jian Ran, which is really appropriate, because every time Jian Ran meets Meng Beijing, he will fall into a state of nymphomaniac, doesn't it look like he is stupid and cute.
Meng Beijing said very happily: "Since they are all acquaintances, Uncle Jian, you don't have to worry about anything now, let's go out to have a meal together, let's catch up with the old days and have a good time." ”
Hearing Meng Beijing say this, at this time, Jian Sheng really had no reason to refuse, and he no longer shirked at the moment, and readily agreed.
So, Meng Beijing took his grandfather Meng Shuqing and grandmother Tang Mei, and Lin Jing took Jian Sheng, Shen Qing and Jian Er to the newly opened hot pot restaurant not far from the entrance of the community.
Everyone was happy, except for Jane.
Because, Jian Er found that Lin Jing's senior Meng Beijing looked at Lin Jing's gaze, revealing a trace of forbearance, which was not simply a senior's caring gaze for his junior sister, but a man's admiring gaze when he saw a woman he liked.
This discovery made him very unhappy in his heart!
The newly opened hot pot restaurant, called Xiangxiang hot pot restaurant, although the name is a little girly, but the decoration inside is very atmospheric, very spacious and bright, or very distinctive charcoal copper stove hot pot.
A large round table was chosen, and everyone sat down.
Meng Shuqing and Jian Sheng, as the heads of the family, sat together, Meng Shuqing's right hand side was Tang Mei and Meng Beijing, and Jian Sheng's left hand side was Shen Qing, Jian Er and Lin Jing.
The table was round, and when it was ranked like this, it became Lin Jing's left hand side was Meng Beijing, and on the right hand side was Jian Er, and she sat between the two men.
Despite this, Lin Jing didn't feel anything, after all, she regarded Meng Beijing as a senior and Jian Er as a younger brother.
However, Meng Beijing and Jian Er, who were sitting next to her, didn't think so.
Out of a man's understanding of men, as well as the sixth sense between men, Meng Beijing and Jian Er discovered each other's special feelings for Lin Jing at the same time, and a trace of hostility suddenly rose in their hearts towards each other.
And Lin Jing, who was in the center of the storm, was unaware of this.
The service of Xiangxiang hot pot restaurant is really good, after ordering, the food is served quickly, and it is indeed the same as others say, very clean, very fresh, and tastes very good.
Meng Shuqing, Tang Mei, Jian Sheng, and Shen Qing, as elders, chatted with each other, and Lin Jing, Meng Beijing, and Jian Er were close in age, and the three of them chatted.
Meng Beijing opened his mouth and asked Lin Jing, "Lin Jing, are you participating in the work now, where are you working?"
Lin Jinggang wanted to answer, but Jian Er on the other side replied first: "Oh, you don't know, Sister Jing'er is a cow, she joined Dingsheng Group and became an assistant to the president." ”
After that, Jian Er threw Meng Beijing a smug look, which means that you can still have me know more about Lin Jing.
Seeing this, Meng Beijing was not angry, and smiled at Jian Er, that expression was like an adult looking at a child who was making trouble without reason, which suddenly made Jian Er feel angry, and the little pride just now disappeared.
Jian Er's mind moved, and he thought of another way, he pretended to clip a fish ball, but he couldn't catch it, but he didn't give up, it seemed that he had identified the fish ball.
Seeing this, Lin Jing immediately stretched out her chopsticks, picked up the fish ball, put it on Jian Er's plate, and advised, "Eat slowly, be careful of scalding." ”
"Well, thank you, Sister Jing'er. Jian Er said this, but his eyes pretended to glance at Meng Bei inadvertently.
Meng Beijing naturally noticed all this, he smiled slightly, scooped up Lin Jing's favorite glutinous rice purple potato balls with a colander spoon, gently put them into Lin Jing's plate, and said, "Eat slowly, be careful of scalding." ”
With that, he smiled at Jane.
That means that you still need a woman to take care of you, and I, for example, take care of a woman.
Jian Er was angry again, and secretly said in his heart, isn't it just to pick up vegetables, you will clip it, and so will I.
So, he started the mode of frantically picking vegetables for Lin Jing.
Lotus root slices, kelp shreds, fish balls, peeing beef balls, crab sticks, shrimp slippery, wide flour, oil bean skin, old fritters, chrysanthemum cabbage, oily wheat cabbage, duck blood, tender tofu, etc.
After a while, a small pile was piled up in Lin Jing's plate.
Lin Jing was still saying thank you to Jian Er at first, and soon, she said to Jian Er with a smile and a smile: "Enough, enough, Jian Er, you can eat it yourself, I'll clip it myself." ”
