Chapter 167: Visiting the Li Family
A black Mercedes-Benz drove smoothly on the road of Donghai, and after running a distance in the city, it got on a highway, and then overtook it on the highway at a high speed.
There were two men and two women in the car, Zhao Bin and the secretary sat in the front row, Lin Xiaoyao and Qin Wanru sat in the back row, the secretary drove the car, and the other three chatted with laughter, what made Zhao Bin strange was that the female companion brought by Lin Xiaoyao was not Tong Xiaoting who went to Italy last time, but a relatively mature and beautiful woman Qin Wanru.
But strange is strange, you can't talk nonsense, there are some things that should not be asked, Zhao Bin knows in his heart.
"Don't hide it from Brother Zhao, I invested in the clothing business this time, and the boss is not me!"
"Oh? Brother Lin still has big shots behind the scenes, haha. ”
Zhao Bin said haha, and didn't ask who it was, Lin Xiaoyao said it if he was willing to say it, and he didn't ask directly if he didn't want to say it, and probed the tone in a joking tone, which is also the way businessmen chat, not everyone wants others to know his details, Zhao Bin knows this very well.
Lin Xiaoyao glanced at Qin Wanru, and said with a deep meaning in his eyes: "Far away in the sky, close in front of me, the behind-the-scenes boss I am talking about is Qin Wanru beside me." ”
"No one is on the right track, what kind of behind-the-scenes boss?"
Qin Wanru glanced at Lin Xiaoyao with ambiguous eyes, and slapped Lin Xiaoyao's arm as if flirtatious, even the most stupid person could see that the relationship between the two was not ordinary.
"Oh? Then I'm not going to call Boss Qin? ”
"What's the matter, I don't want to work for Boss Lin?"
Qin Wanru also glanced at Lin Xiaoyao with deep meaning, as if this sentence was revenge.
Along the way, Lin Xiaoyao also explained to Qin Wanru. I invested in a big business, which was about clothing, and I planned to let Qin Wanru run it. And Zhao Bin is their partner.
Qin Wanru knew very well in her heart that Lin Xiaoyao's business was actually tailor-made for her, which reminded her of the last time Lin Xiaoyao asked her what her dreams were, and Qin Wanru's answer was: There is her own clothing store.
To be honest, Qin Wanru is still very moved, a man has done so many things for herself, she really has nothing else to ask for, except to be moved. She also held back her strength: she must run this store well.
"Brother Zhao, I will have to help Wanru more in business matters in the future."
"Don't worry, this is also our business. I'm a businessman, I want to make money, haha. ”
After dozens of minutes of high-speed running, the Mercedes-Benz car left Donghai City. Arrived in Gangju City, the capital of Gangdong Province. As the capital of Jiangdong Province, Jiangzhou City can be said to be more affluent, where a large number of wealthy people from the mainland are gathered, and it can be said that Jiangzhou is a big city in the whole country.
There is a lot of traffic along the way, and the long queue of cars seems to run through the entire urban area, and there is no end in sight.
Lin Xiaoyao is going to visit an old leader who has retired from the provincial party committee this time, although Zhao Bin does not know who this old leader is. However, Qin Wanru remembered Li Guotao and Li Chunjiang, father and son, who met on the plane last time, the old leader that Lin Xiaoyao said. Most likely it's Li Guotao.
After a noisy downtown area, the car stopped at the gate of a compound, the guards at the gate stood upright, the green military uniforms were like a landscape in the cold winter, and the soldiers with rifles added a sense of mystery and solemnity to the compound.
A soldier walked out of the sentry box, a standard salute, a simple interrogation of two sentences and then raised the guardrail, let the car into the compound, in fact, every time someone arrives, the leaders in the compound always notify the sentry in advance, they only ask some simple questions to know whether the guests who are coming today are not the guests who greeted before.
Li Chunjiang stood downstairs early, and the old man said that the benefactor had to be polite when he came to visit, so the task of reception naturally fell on Li Chunjiang, although he could also let the secretary do it for him, but since his father ordered it, he always felt that he still had to express his sincerity.
"Haha, Brother Lin, welcome!"
As soon as Lin Xiaoyao and the others got out of the car, Li Chunjiang immediately greeted him and held Lin Xiaoyao's hand tightly.
"In this winter, why did my brother come to greet me in person, I'm really a little flattered!"
Lin Xiaoyao saw Li Chunjiang standing at the door, so he naturally wanted to express his gratitude, he was making a gesture enough, and he had to tell the other party tactfully that he was very "moved".
"Who is this?"
Li Chunjiang glanced at Lin Xiaoyao's female companion and asked thoughtfully, "It seems that you have seen it somewhere?" ”
"This is the flight attendant on the plane?"
Without waiting for Lin Xiaoyao to answer, Li Chunjiang remembered, "You are also the benefactor of the Li family!" ”
Li Chunjiang also shook hands with Qin Wanru enthusiastically.
"Qin Wanru."
Qin Wanru also introduced herself.
"Okay, the two of you are also fate!"
Li Chunjiang patted Lin Xiaoyao's arm, the meaning is self-evident, the relationship between the two can be seen at a glance, just by looking at the distance and gestures of the two standing together.
"Who are these two?"
Li Chunjiang glanced at Zhao Bin and the female secretary beside him, these two people also have a certain bearing, especially Zhao Bin, how to say that he has also been mixed abroad for many years, he is not familiar with life abroad, and it is more difficult to make some achievements, after all, he has experienced some ups and downs, and his experience is also there.
"This is my friend Zhao Bin."
Lin Xiaoyao briefly introduced, although Li Chunjiang didn't understand why Lin Xiaoyao brought these two people for a while, but since the other party brought people here, he must have his own plans.
"Come in, a few of you."
"Wait a minute."
Lin Xiaoyao took something from the trunk and walked up with a smile.
"Come on, bring something."
Li Chunjiang smiled and led the way in front, and the five people turned around and walked up the stairs, this building looks very simple, there is nothing special, you have to take the stairs to go upstairs, but fortunately, the floor is not very high, and the second floor will soon arrive.
The house is not very big, but it is not too small, a little look at it is estimated that there is about 12 square meters, for an old cadre who retired from the provincial party committee, this kind of treatment is quite average, after all, the era is different, and today's society is not the era of reform and opening up.
As soon as she entered the house, an aunt who was less than fifty years old greeted her, "This is the nanny Sister Liu." ”
This was followed by a woman in her forties, who was obviously not a maid by looking at her temperament and dress, "This is your sister-in-law." ”
Li Chunjiang introduced with a smile, "This is the old man's life-saving benefactor, Lin Xiaoyao." ”
"Hello, hello, this is Xiaolin, haha, really a talent."
"Hello sister-in-law"
"Oops"
A group of people talked and introduced it with a smile, and Li Chunjiang's daughter-in-law took Qin Wanru's hand and sat aside, and the group of people said that it was also lively to laugh.
As soon as a few people sat down, an old lady in her seventies helped Li Guotao and walked out.
"Old Lin, why did you come out in person?"
Lin Xiaoyao hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, and he had to pay attention to it, the old man was not in good health, and if there was a bad thing, Lin Xiaoyao was really afraid that people would blame him.
"That's it, Dad, you should have a good rest." Li Chunjiang stepped forward and helped Li Guotao sit down.
"Haha, the life-saving benefactor is here, don't I greet it personally?"
"This is my mother."
Li Chunjiang also did not forget to introduce it.
"Hello grandma!"
"Hehe, good."
"How is the old man's health?"
Lin Xiaoyao also knew that Li Chunjiang took Li Guotao to see a doctor abroad last time, and the medical conditions abroad were still good, after all, the age was there, even if the foreign medical system and equipment were introduced, the experience still couldn't catch up for a while.
"Hmph."
At the mention of this, Li Chunjiang's face changed suddenly, "It is said that the medical conditions abroad are good, but in fact, there is a fart, and after checking for a long time, it still can't be cured in the end, so you can only pay attention to your daily life and avoid being emotional, isn't that the set?" ”
Lin Xiaoyao looked at Li Guotao, Chinese medicine pays attention to looking, smelling, asking, whether this body is good or not, first of all, you can see that the old man's face is sallow, and there is no sign of redness, and his condition is unstable at first glance.
As soon as the old man's illness was mentioned, the surrounding atmosphere was suddenly depressed, and several people from the Li family sighed.
"What do they all look like, this is not dead yet, just keep a calm face."
The old man was a little angry for a while, the atmosphere of this guest just came like this, is this the way of hospitality?
A few people didn't speak, the old man's temper was there, and there was really no one who dared to talk back to him, but the old lady patted his hand on the side, and the old man snorted coldly and stopped talking.
Lin Xiaoyao stared at Li Guotao carefully for a while, thinking a little in his heart, the old lady saw that the atmosphere was a little dull, and casually found a topic and said, "Xiaoyao, where are you doing things now?" ”
"Do a small clothing business in the East China Sea."
"Oh? It's not easy to start your own business at a young age. ”
"It's just a mix of food."
Lin Xiaoyao smiled and didn't continue to talk deeply, although this time it was to ask the Li family to help, but after all, the old man's condition was unstable, and it was really difficult to mention this topic.
"Old Li, why don't you let me take your pulse?"
Lin Xiaoyao's question, Li Chunjiang came to the spirit for a while, but he watched Lin Xiaoyao pull his father back from the hands of death, and he really had a little expectation for Lin Xiaoyao.
For a while, several people in the Li family looked at Lin Xiaoyao, in addition to the old man and Li Chunjiang, others also heard about the old man being rescued by Lin Xiaoyao, maybe this young man really has a way?
A few people were thoughtful, and fell silent for a while. (To be continued......)
