The silver-gray Volvo moved slowly under the night, quietly and silently drove into the old mansion located in the east of Jinghai University, and the motive stopped, and the trace of restlessness instantly drowned the night. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe chirping of insects and cicadas in the surrounding pond was silent for a moment and then rose gorgeously.

Lin Quan pushed the car door and didn't rush into the house, so he lit a cigarette according to the car door.

"Little guy is a little guy?" There were no lights in the courtyard, the stars and moonlight were sparse and unknown, and Chen Ran couldn't tell the difference in the house, and asked out loud.

"It's me!" Lin Quan answered the question, pressed the cigarette he had just taken two puffs to the ground, twisted it out, and strode into the room.

Chen Ran opened the door of the inner room, and the light in the room leaked out. Chen Ran stood at the door in a white gauze silk blouse, his eyes stayed on Lin Quan's face for a while, sighed, coughed, and said, "Come into the house, let's talk about it, let's go into the house!" ”

Hearing this, the nanny over there also got up and walked over, cleaned up the thread "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" that Chen Ran had just seen from the table, and served tea.

Lin Quan thought the atmosphere was too solemn, pointed to the Three Kingdoms on the desk and said with a smile: "I remember when I was a child, my grandfather told me: If you don't read Water Margin, how can your grandfather read the Three Kingdoms at home?" ”

"The young man is heavy-blooded, impulsive, and unreadable; It's old enough, and you don't need to read the Three Kingdoms anymore; I cultivate my mind at home, there is nothing to read or not, who can I calculate? Chen Ran waved his hand and quipped: "You kid can't read the Three Kingdoms anymore, how many people have been going around for you over the years." ”

"Books can make people, but my books were all selected by your grandfather, you helped me choose them," Lin Quan snorted, and looked out of the glass window and looked at the flowers and trees in the atrium swaying under the stars and moonlight. said: "There are more flowers and trees in the yard, and grandpa can't take care of it, is there another worker?" ”

"No matter how many workers there are, I live in an old fellow, and the courtyard is a kind of scenery. Xiao Suo is not a kind of scenery, look at the state of mind of the appreciator, I deliberately left the courtyard here, I don't take care of it, just so that I can often remember what it looked like when it was broken, but unfortunately it doesn't matter if I understand this truth or not, the key people of the younger generation must be able to understand it," Chen Ran said: "I heard Chen Jin say that you are going to set up the Chen family fund, what are your plans?" ”

"What is the appropriate distance between the family and the modern business management system? We all know that. Power comes from concentrating in today's fragmented social structure, what measures should be taken to maintain family cohesion? Lin Quan's brows furrowed slightly, "I've been thinking about this recently. In addition to the registered capital of 100 million, I will also place a part of the equity of Liantou under the name of the Chen Family Fund, and the relevant stakeholders. I've drawn up a list. The big idea is to ask grandpa to get the ...... for me," Lin Quan took out the book with the worn-out record and spread it out and handed it to grandpa Chen Ran.

Chen Ran picked up his reading glasses, put them on, took the inconspicuous notebook, and looked at it, it was not surprising that the names of him, Lin Mingda, Chen Xiu, Lin Jingyi, and Lin Jingchu were listed on it, and he pointed his finger on Shu Ya's name and looked up and asked Lin Quan: "When did you do it?" ”

Lin Quan smiled: "Don't worry about things on both sides. ”

Chen Ran pointed to Shu Ya's name again, and read lightly: "Xiao Siyu." Xiao Siyu's little doll is really liked, and she hasn't come to the old house for some days, "Look up and look at Lin Quan, "Aren't you afraid that the Shu family has opinions?" ”

"Oh." Lin Quan said with a look in his grandfather's gaze. "There's not much I can do for Siyu, I'll explain it to Shu Ya."

"That's okay, I remember the list, I will invite Mr. Shu to come over another day and take a good look at it," Chen Ran handed the record book back to Lin Quan, "You arrange these things now, how do you want to deal with that woman?" I heard that because of this, you had a bit of an unpleasant quarrel with that kid from the Guo family. ”

Lin Quan smiled bitterly, and his heart was bitter because he was already numb, but it was no longer difficult to mention this topic. Subconsciously took out a cigarette, looked up, saw grandpa Chen Ran's face, and wanted to put the cigarette back in his pocket: "Guo Zi, he thought for a while, he would understand my intentions in a few days......"

"Give me a cigarette too," Chen Ran stretched out his hand, "Listen to the doctor's words, you can't smoke this, you can't drink that, I don't have to live in the next few days." I'm an old guy, I'm not afraid of death, I don't quit smoking, but I can't be a doctor, avoid her nagging, listening to her nagging, it's more uncomfortable than not being able to smoke. ”

Lin Quan lit a cigarette for his grandfather, lit one for himself, swallowed two sips, and said: "I sometimes think that I may have a hard time in the aisle of the school back then. Since you don't recognize each other, you don't recognize each other, I have grandpa, parents, Sister Jingyi, and Xiaochu, who live a very good life, and I can't hope to be fulfilled in this world, and the life of struggle is not one. What happened in Chunjiang a few days ago made me guess once again the reason for being abandoned, and I couldn't defend her anymore...... Since they are such people, they are indeed not entitled to enjoy this wealth anymore, and they do not know how much evil will be done if it falls into their hands. Chunjiang, they tried their best to cover it up, but if they really did it by any means, they would be true

It's a fatal loophole, but I can't brazenly break the rules and trample on the superficial justice maintained by the law. Guo Zi blames me for being too soft-hearted, but ah, they can do whatever it takes, but we can't, otherwise what position do we have that can stand? What does property mean to me? ”

"The year you were abandoned in the school aisle, I still remember that the spring was very cold," Chen Ran looked at Lin Quan, "Lin Mingda brought you back, I was thinking about how much hardship it took to make people willing to leave their children?" ”

"Alas, it's a pity that no one can know the truth of that year except herself."

"Oh, your biological father was saving people and drowning, and the person who was rescued should have been paying attention to you and that woman, maybe did you go to the farm to find clues?"

"More than 20 years have passed, the memory of the people on the farm side is blurred, the biological father is kind to her, but her temperament is indifferent, when she was not much on the farm, and there are few people who remember her appearance, only know that the days of the farm have just improved, the days will not be too difficult, the educated youth in the countryside are in a hurry to return to the city, but also choose their own means to compete for the place to return to the city, everyone resists others. When she returned to the city, everyone on the farm thought that suddenly I took out a picture of her son, and everyone who remembered the old things thought it was me, so how could they know the truth? I also inquired about the people who fell into the water, and I only knew that it was an old cadre, and it should be one of the group that was sent to the labor camp, but the old cadres who were sent to the farm labor camp for more than ten years also returned to the city, and no one could say which city they would return to. A review of the farm's archives could not lead to any clues. ”

"There were thousands of people who were sent to Jinghai Farm for labor camp back then, and the past was unbearable, and the management of the farm was too harsh, and everyone wanted to abandon that memory forever, and it was inconvenient to ask someone about the things of the year, and it was really difficult to find this clue." Chen Ran frowned, "But people who remember the past always remember it in their hearts, I took care of some old comrades when I worked in the Beiguan District Revolutionary Committee, and later I was also taken care of by these old comrades, and they are the ones who remember the past." For example, when the Ministry of Supervision was ready to continue to investigate my situation, someone helped me and said that I Chen Ran still had merit in Jinghai's exhibition, so the investigation was suspended. I don't hold a grudge, but I must remember who helped me speak back then, but I never found anyone. Chen Ran stood up and beckoned Lin Quan to follow him into the back room, "I've carefully sorted out the old relationships in my life, and I really haven't figured out who will help me speak at that time." These are all leaders who have come to Jinghai to inspect, you can help me take a look and see if the people who helped me speak back then are not among them. ”

Chen Ran took out a photo album and opened it, the large and small photos were arranged in black and white in front and color in the back, whether they were black and white or color, they were well preserved, recording the trajectory of Chen Ran's life.

"More than ten years ago, everyone's minds were relatively simple, I can't guess." Lin Quan flipped through this thick photo album casually, he had flipped it many times before, and every time he flipped it, he felt immobile: "I remember that there was a photo that took me inside, it was Vice Premier Yao, when the State Councilor visited Jinghai, which page was that photo?" ”

"Oh, you were only twelve years old at the time, and you were fooling around in the office and conference room of the Municipal Party Committee, and you were bumping into Vice Premier Yao to give instructions to the members of the Jinghai Municipal Party Committee, promising to be this ......."

Chen Ran pointed to a slightly yellow photo, Lin Quan looked at himself in the photo, his head held slightly high, but he had an unbeatable flamboyance when he was a teenager, and said with some shame in his heart: "At that time, I didn't do anything more to make a mess for my grandfather, I also spilled the water glass, Vice Premier Yao, except for my grandfather to calm down a little Zhou Ping and Yang Yun, they were all frightened by their eyes, I can't forget the beauty of the official now, I understood it at that time." ”

"You scared Vice Premier Yao, but who would be angry about such a thing? Vice Premier Yao not only didn't mind that he liked you quite much, but also left this photo, and called you afterwards to ask about your studies. But what you looked like at that time, grandpa was ashamed to say it, hehe, don't mention it. Chen Ran chuckled: "Vice Premier Yao has been retired for a few years, but you have the opportunity to visit, maybe Vice Premier Yao still remembers what happened back then, and the influence of the old guy is not comparable to ordinary people." ”

There are only a handful of people who are qualified to speak in this case, but Lin Quan accompanied his grandfather Chen Ran to look through the photo album, and he didn't think of anyone who would help Chen Ran speak in that case in 92, maybe it was really an irrelevant person who stood up and said justice.

It was already very late to give this a fork, thinking that there would be something early tomorrow, and I didn't know how much time I could sleep at night, so Lin Quan asked his grandfather to rest, and he left the old house in a car.
