Chapter 268: Lorraine's grandfather
Looking at his son's expectant and puzzled eyes. Luo Jianrong and Li Hong felt very uncomfortable.
"Xiaolin, since you were a child, how many times have you met your grandfather?"
Lorraine was stunned for a moment, and said in her heart, how many times have you met? You've seen a lot of faces, right? Later, after the situation of the Luo's Group, he was with his grandfather in the capital...... Although the whole family encountered an embarrassment at that time, it was a reunion......
However, on second thought, Lorraine was stunned.
To be precise, Lorraine's more impression of her grandfather comes from the fact that in the previous life, the Luo Group declared bankruptcy, the Luo family went downhill, and her grandfather was implicated in the trap and retired from the trap. As the saying goes, families of the poor are more united. Therefore, after the family fell into the middle of the road, the family became closer.
However, Lorraine really hadn't seen her grandfather many times before, and they had only met after a few years.
That is, until his age, he really hasn't seen his grandfather a few times. Of course, this does not mean that my grandfather doesn't love him, on the contrary, my grandfather is almost doting on him. But that's all for later, at least, the current Lorraine, the love for her grandfather, doesn't feel so deep.
As soon as her parents said this, Lorraine also felt strange.
Oh, yes...... When I was a child, and even now, why haven't I met my grandfather too many times? Although my grandfather would buy him a lot of delicious food and fun every time he met from childhood to adulthood, he didn't come and go often.
Just when Luo Lin was puzzled, Luo Jianrong's steady voice came slightly helplessly: "Xiaolin, think about it carefully, every time you meet your grandfather, I and your mother send you to your grandfather's military mansion in Yanjing, and your mother and I will leave on the same day, and your grandfather will send someone to send you back in a few days." Do you still have an impression of this? ”
Lorraine thought about it for a moment, and nodded.
However, his brows couldn't help frowning even tighter, and he said in surprise: "Dad, wasn't the company busy at that time?" So you have to go back the same day......"
"That's one of the reasons, but the main reason." As he spoke, Luo Jianrong took a deep breath, "Or is it because of ...... Your mother married me back then, against your grandfather's will. Your grandfather is a big man in the military region, and your grandfather of Aunt Xiao Qin are all well-known figures in the military regions of the country. When you were at the height of your career, you had a great reputation, and you were already engaged to your mother by a large family...... Hey, then your mother eloped with me from Yanjing City to Jiangnan Province. For this matter, your grandfather has offended many people in Yanjing. Although no one dares to argue with your grandfather openly, secretly making some stumbling blocks is enough to affect your grandfather's prestige......"
Speaking of this, Luo Jianrong actually took out a cigar and lit it slowly.
Lorraine knew that her father was a regular smoker, unless he was upset by something. It is conceivable that this matter has a lot of pressure on him.
"I've always felt guilty about your grandfather, although in the past twenty years, with the efforts of your mother and me, the Rockwell Group has become bigger and bigger, but it's not enough. …… Although your grandfather is not as repulsive as he used to be, he still doesn't accept me at all. Grandpa loves you, that's because you're his own grandson......"
Luo Jianrong exhaled a deep puff of smoke and said slowly.
Li Hong, who was on the side, interjected at this time: "Xiaolin, your grandfather has a bullish temper, and until now, he has never taken the initiative to call us. It was me and your dad who took the initiative to greet him, hey...... After all these years, I don't know how to communicate with him. ”
When Lorraine heard this, her heart suddenly dawned.
He said that when he was young, he had never seen his grandfather and his parents sit together and eat a meal in harmony! Even if my grandfather came to Zhengzhou City to see his little grandson, he lived in his uncle Li Baoshan's house...... I didn't expect that Mom and Dad still have such a history.
But these things, in Lorraine's opinion, are nothing at all.
It is not difficult to hear from the words of my parents that my grandfather wanted to arrange the marriage for my mother single-handedly, but my mother disagreed, eloped with my father, and pursued a free marriage, and then I had such a little loser as myself.
Hehe, this kind of old-fashioned story actually happened around me, and I am the final "product" of this poignant story......
"Hehe, I see." Lorraine was relieved when she heard this, "Mom and Dad, your tone just now really scared me, I thought there was something big, it turned out to be such a thing." …… Hey, according to me, my grandfather is a big shelf, a high spirit, and a good face. If he really doesn't recognize your parents, how can he entrust Aunt Qin to our family? And it can't hurt me so much, right? Although we didn't see each other much, I knew that my grandfather loved me very much. ”
Lorraine is right, in his impression, his grandfather is a standard hard-headed soldier, not a little hard, and his style is vigorous and resolute, and he still remembers the roughness of his grandfather's calloused hand when he stroked his little face.
Li Hong sighed lightly at this time, and said helplessly: "Xiaolin, what you said is right, in this era, this kind of thing is nothing, and it will not make father and daughter turn against each other." But so many years have passed...... Your grandfather didn't make a clear statement, and at that time, your grandfather said that he wanted to run a relationship for your father in Jiangnan Province and let him go on a career path, but he didn't want to, but he made your grandfather very angry. …… Another important point is that your grandfather didn't like businessmen, he always said that businessmen were opportunistic and clever dealers, and they couldn't be put on the table. This is one of the reasons why your father and I did not seek your grandfather's help after coming to Yanjing. Because when I was in business with your father, he was strongly opposed. ”
Hearing this, Lorraine still didn't understand the reason, and nodded helplessly: "Then there is no way, grandpa's temper is very stubborn...... However, who parent in the world would not be for their children, otherwise, I would ask my grandfather to help? Look at him ......"
"Xiaolin, actually, there is another reason." Mother Li Hong waved her hand when she heard the words at this time, interrupting Lorraine's words, "The marriage that your grandfather arranged for me back then, the other party was the deep-rooted local merchant school in Yanjing City, and it was very powerful, in fact, only a businessman of that level could be like your grandfather's eyes." …… But because I eloped with your father and got married, let your grandfather offend the family, and there is no way to reconcile until now, and the other party doesn't buy your grandfather's account at all. Therefore, even if your grandfather is willing to help, some people in the mall will not dare to accept this favor because of the face of the local big businessman. ――So, if our company wants to develop in Yanjing City in the most stable way, it is better not to let the people who travel with you know the existence of your grandfather's relationship, otherwise you will encounter some unexpected resistance, so do you understand Xiaolin? ”
Understood, of course understood......
Lorraine sighed silently in his heart, the dragons and snakes in the capital are mixed, but my grandfather is also a chief-level figure of a military region in Yanjing, and he will also be restrained by some big family forces, in a way, the characters of the army are very awesome, but they are not as good as a family.
If it is a big family with deep-rooted roots in Yanjing City, then in this family, there must be soldiers, businessmen, and officials everywhere, in other words, the network is smooth everywhere, and the development of three or four generations, coupled with the concerted efforts of the family, is naturally enough to stand out from the crowd.
It is estimated that the four giants in Beijing are to such an extent.
For the mixing of dragons and snakes in the capital, Lorraine now has a further experience, seeing that his parents are a little sad at this time, he, as a son, has the obligation to let his parents relax their mood.
So, he slowly stepped forward, poured the tea in the teacup in front of his parents, and then patted his chest and said: "Okay, parents, I will think about these old things, you are in a bad mood, it will affect your body, your health is not good, my mood as a son is not good, my mood as a son is not good, my body is not good, when the time comes, our family of three is not in good health, so how can I take care of my son?" As she spoke, Lorraine grinned and grinned, very pleasant.
"Stinky boy, when did you learn to speak so well?" Li Hong was stunned for a moment, then went up and patted his son's head gently, and said with a smile. The mood has improved a lot.
Luo Jianrong and Li Hong, as parents, are often busy in other places and rarely have time to spend with their son, for Lorraine's recent growth, they are one surprise after another. They had already learned about Lorraine's business talent, but they didn't expect their son to be a boy who could talk so well, which was surprising.
In my impression, although Lorraine talks a lot, he is full of words that make people angry, and he will say so much.
Luo Jianrong was also overjoyed by Luo Lin's words, waved his hand, and returned to the topic: "Xiao Lin, you have time to go to your grandfather's place to see him." ”
"Well, don't worry, Mom and Dad, I remember." Lorraine nodded, and turned to the right color, "That'...... Is there a better way for parents to do it now? ――I mean our Rockwell Group, what projects should we operate next? This network is not connected, and real estate development will undoubtedly be abandoned. ”
"Yes...... Luo Jianrong put down the cigar in his hand and squinted his eyes slightly, "It seems that we still have to continue to operate the best leisure and entertainment industry...... Until you think of a better development plan, this is a stopgap measure......"
However, when Luo Jianrong's words just fell, Luo Lin's eyebrows suddenly raised, and a light flashed in his mind, and he snapped his fingers and said, "Dad, I have a feasible plan here!" ”
