Jiangning Province is the capital of Jiangsu Province.

"Jiangnan beautiful land, Jinling Imperial State." With a history of more than 6,000 years of civilization, 2,600 years of city building and nearly 500 years of capital history, Jiangning Mansion is one of the four ancient capitals of China, known as the "ancient capital of the Six Dynasties" and "ten super metropolises", and is an important birthplace of Chinese civilization.

Among them, Jianglu District is located in the south-central part of Jiangning Prefecture, which is the place of "six generations of luxury" and the important place of "Ten Dynasties of Gyeonggi", and has the reputation of "the people of Shangyuan are good at business, the people of Jiangning are good at fields, the people of Longdu are good at medicine, the people of Shanqiao are good at pottery, the people of Tao Wu are good at cutting, the people of Moling are good at weaving, and the people of Dou Village are good at carving" and the reputation of "the county of the world, the best place in the country".

After Lin Yichen and Soraka came out of the airport, they called a taxi and went straight to the Lin family's ancestral home.

It is worth mentioning that they met a funny taxi driver. As soon as the two got into the car, the driver's uncle asked, "Do you listen to the song?" ”

Lin Yichen was stunned for a moment, thinking that it would take half an hour to get from the airport to the ancestral house, and it was boring anyway, so he nodded and said, "Listen to it." ”

took it, what he didn't expect was that the driver's uncle sang all the way to him.

During the singing to the rise, he also shouted to himself: Where is the applause? Subsequently, when Lin Yichen was hesitating whether to make a scene, he honked his horn a few times.

And this is not Gao Chao, after pressing the horn, he continued to shout: Where are your hands? Let me see your hands.

Lin Yichen was wondering, and then saw that the goods had activated the wipers!

Then he yelled: Friends in the back, where are your cheers? Where are your screams?

With a bang, the trunk opened......

got out of the car, and the driver's uncle handed a business card to Lin Yichen unsatisfactorily, and said, "If you call a car next time, you can call this number and be on call." ”

After the car drove away, Lin Yichen immediately threw this business card into the trash, a chicken, just sing, and sell me cute!

"Soraka?" Lin Yichen walked a few steps and found that Soraka was still in place, so he screamed.

"Huh?" Soraka answered.

Lin Yichen found that Soraka had been looking absent-minded since he got off the plane, and he seemed to be nervous at this time, so he asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”

I saw Soraka bowing his head, a little hesitant, and said, "Boss, will your family ...... Will you not like me? ”

"Uh......" The corners of Lin Yichen's mouth twitched, what is this chick's head made of? Before I came, I was clamoring to come, but now it's like this, and where did this worry come from?

Of course, spit is spit out! Lin Yichen still said gently: "Don't worry, my family is very easy to get along with." ”

The Lin family has a history of thousands of years in Jiangning Mansion, which can be traced back to the two Jin Dynasty at the earliest, and can be described as a thousand-year-old family. But having said that, because of the change of dynasties, the Lin family also had ups and downs, and the most recent prosperity was during the Republic of China, developed by Lin Yichen's grandfather.

Now after four generations, the Lin family can be regarded as having a head and face in Jiangning Mansion. The ancestral house of the Lin family is located on Qilin Street in Jianglu District, and the whole ancestral house is a garden.

Although the ancestral house is very large, only Lin Yichen's grandfather and grandmother live in it on weekdays. Since tomorrow is Lin Yichen's grandfather's 70th birthday, today's immediate family members will return to the ancestral home first and have a family banquet together.

In Lin Yichen's father's generation, there were ten brothers and sisters, but only three were men. And Lin Yichen's generation, excluding cousins and cousins, is only six. Among them, Lin Yichen is an only child, and he is the youngest of many siblings. Lin Yichen's uncle has two children, both of whom are girls. The second uncle had three children, two girls and one boy.

So in a sense, there are only two men in the Lin family's generation.

Because the ancestors clearly stated, everything in the family is passed on to men but not to women. Even in today's society, the Lin family still adheres to the ancestral teachings. Therefore, Lin Yichen's cousins and cousins were not allowed to participate in this family banquet, and even the husbands of the six aunts could not participate. Therefore, the number of people at this family banquet was much smaller than the huge population of the Lin family.

When Lin Yichen and Soraka were about to enter the ancestral house, a Hummer braked sharply next to the two and stopped.

Lin Yichen frowned slightly, even if he hadn't seen anyone yet, he knew who it was. It was his only cousin, Lin Haocheng.

It is also strange to say that although Lin Haocheng is three years older than him, the two of them can barely be regarded as growing up together in open crotch pants, but as if they were born to be rivals, he and Lin Haocheng have never dealt with each other since they were young. Compared with Xiongba, who also grew up together, it's a completely opposite relationship.

Sure enough, the car door slammed open, and a handsome man jumped out. Yes, Lin Haocheng is very handsome, and has completely inherited the best genes of the Lin family, masculine, handsome, and a perfect model figure, which can fascinate thousands of girls.

Compared with Lin Haocheng, Lin Yichen is much worse. Although he is not ugly, on the contrary, he is still very attractive. But standing with Lin Haocheng is dwarfed, or in other words, except for his pair of sword eyebrows and star eyes that can completely defeat Lin Haocheng, other aspects are simply defeated.

However, it is worth mentioning that when the two are together, it is often Lin Haocheng who attracts girls first, but it is Lin Yichen who often rolls the sheets, perhaps it is this that Lin Haocheng has always been unhappy with Lin Yichen.

"Yo, isn't this a little brother?" As soon as Lin Haocheng got out of the car, he greeted loudly.

Facing Lin Haocheng, who was striding over, Lin Yichen also shouted: "Second brother." At the same time, I want to come forward to shake hands with him, or hug him or something, although I don't deal with him since I was a child, but after all, I grew up together, and we are brothers, so I won't make it like a rival.

However, Lin Haocheng directly ignored him, crossed Lin Yichen, walked in front of Soraka, showed a charming smile, stretched out his hand, spoke fluent English, and said, "Hello! MynameisLinHaocheng！ Nicetomeetyou！ ”

Lin Yichen almost didn't laugh directly, Lin Hao was still urinating.

Because the two have been together since childhood, Lin Haocheng is always "responsible" for attracting sister paper like a mascot, and Lin Yichen is "responsible" for rolling the sheets, so Lin Haocheng is very annoyed by this. Therefore, every time it is Lin Yichen's sister paper, he must try his best to grab it, of course, the result is not a success. However, he never tired of it, and he was defeated and defeated again and again!

Now Lin Haocheng is like this, obviously he regards Soraka as Lin Yichen's sister paper, and he habitually wants to grab it!

Compared with the past, Lin Haocheng is obviously going to lose more miserably today, or it will be reduced to a joke. Soraka looks like a Westerner, but he doesn't speak English at all. As for why Mao can speak Chinese, Lin Yichen can't give an answer, maybe it can be explained by the whole universe speaking Chinese.

I saw Soraka looking at Lin Haocheng blankly, blinking, and then moving to Lin Yichen's side.

Seeing this, the corners of Lin Yichen's mouth twitched slightly, and it was difficult to hide his smile.

Lin Haocheng's face naturally became a little ugly, but because of his character of being fat even if he had a swollen face, he would never turn his face in front of his sister, so Lin Yichen gradually became a little unscrupulous.

"Little brother, today is a family banquet, you actually brought an outsider back, if the old man knows, I'm afraid he will be unhappy, right?" Lin Haocheng said coldly.

Lin Yichen shrugged his shoulders and said it didn't matter. Although the ancestral precepts cannot be changed, but after all, the times are different now, he believes that the old man will not lose his temper because of this kind of thing, not to mention that the old man and his grandmother love him very much since he was a child, maybe this can also be understood as his arrogance.

At this moment, a voice came from inside the gate, "The two sons are back." ”

When Lin Yichen and Lin Haocheng heard this, they turned around and looked at each other, and then called out respectfully, "Grandpa Chen." ”

What came out of the gate was a silver-haired old man, very kind, he was the housekeeper of the Lin family, and he was also an old friend of Lin Yichen's grandfather, who had been working in the Lin family all his life. When he was young, he traveled north and south with Lin Yichen's grandfather, and after Lin Yichen's grandfather retired, he also retired as a housekeeper.

"Huh...... Second son, little son, come in quickly, just wait for the two of you. Chen Lao said with a smile, and suddenly he saw Soraka standing behind Lin Yichen, and was slightly stunned.

Lin Yichen hurriedly introduced: "Grandpa Chen, this is my friend Soraka. ”

Soraka bowed to Old Chen very obediently and called sweetly, "Grandpa Chen." ”

The fluent Chinese, listening to the Lin Haocheng next to him, couldn't help but move the corners of his mouth, and his face was extremely strange.

Chen Lao nodded slightly happily and said, "Good, good, good!" Come in. ”

Then, the three of them followed Chen Lao through the front yard, bypassing the long corridor to the living room of the main house. The entire ancestral mansion of the Lin family is like the mansion of the ancient dignitaries, and all the facilities in it look antique, except for the necessary power facilities, everything is almost no longer modern.

In the living room, there were only four people at this time, it was Lin Yichen's grandfather, his father and two uncles. As for his grandmother, mother, and aunts, they went to prepare dinner. This is also the unwritten rule of the Lin family, during the family banquet, the woman of the family cooks and prepares the banquet herself, instead of being cooked by a hired chef as usual.

Sitting at the top was Lin Yichen's grandfather Lin Tianren, with a ruddy complexion, very bright, and dressed in a Tang costume.

And the three on both sides, the first position on the left is Lin Yichen's uncle, called Lin Wenyi, with big ears and a rich appearance. In addition, he is dressed in Tang costume like the old man, so the whole thing looks like a rich outsider in ancient times.

In the second position, a man in a suit and leather shoes, looking like a successful person, with a pair of gold-wire glasses on the bridge of his nose, a shrewd face, very handsome. He is Lin Haocheng's father, that is, Lin Yichen's second uncle, Lin Wenli.

And the man in the first seat on the right is naturally Lin Yichen's father, called Lin Wenzhi. Lin Yichen's appearance is very similar to his father, with the same sword eyebrows and starry eyes, giving people the same feeling of laziness and leisure. Unlike the other two, Lin Wenzhi dresses very casually, and can even be said to be hanging.

The three of them entered the living room, and Lin Yichen and Lin Haocheng shouted in unison: "Grandpa." ”

Lin Tianren smiled and nodded, and then the two of them greeted their father and uncle respectively.

In the end, everyone's eyes fell on Soraka, who still felt like a high priest at this time, completely like a little girl who went home with her boyfriend for the first time to meet her elders, and didn't know where to put her hands? Not...... Well, she still has two boxes of brains in her hands...... Brain platinum.

Lin Haocheng looked at Lin Yichen with a playful face, the latter was extremely calm, his eyes swept over the faces of the two uncles and his father, the eldest uncle smiled, the second uncle frowned, as for the father...... Uh, is it curiosity?

"Grandpa......" Lin Yichen was about to introduce Soraka, when suddenly the latter pulled the corner of his clothes, and he turned his head to look at her.

Seeing that the latter's face was flushed at some point, he wondered, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Soraka glanced at the others, then stammered and whispered, "Old ...... Husband...... Hmm...... "Apparently she herself realized that she had made a mistake, and her face turned even redder.

The corners of Lin Yichen's mouth twitched slightly, and he raised his eyes to look at the others, and sure enough, everyone heard it.

The original smile on the uncle's face froze slightly, and then he looked at Soraka solemnly.

The second uncle's brows furrowed even tighter.

Father, well, he didn't care! I said, Dad, have you forgotten that you forced a girlfriend Chang Xuan for me?

As for grandfather Lin Tianren, he was slightly stunned, then glared at Lin Yichen, and then looked at Soraka kindly.

Soraka, perhaps sensing the subtle atmosphere in the living room, said nervously, "I...... I'm going to the bathroom. ”

Lin Yichen listened to the black line on his face, and at the same time he couldn't cry or laugh, he looked at his grandfather Lin Tianren, who waved his hand and motioned for him to take Soraka away.

When Lin Yichen took Soraka out of the living room, he faintly heard the voice of the second uncle, who seemed to mention "family banquet" and "outsiders".
