Chapter 436, Aunt Li
That afternoon, by the Charles River, Jin Zhu still called Xie Jinhua, and then changed the ticket and delayed it by a day.
The next day, the two went to settle down the house first, and then Jin Zhu accompanied Li Xiang to the school to register, and when he came out of the school, Jin Zhu received a call from Thomson, he learned from Mr. and Mrs. Smith that Jin Zhu came to Boston, and specially called to invite Jin Zhu and Li Xiang to go to New York.
Jin Zhu told the other party about his itinerary, and as soon as he put down the phone, he received a call from Li Ruizhong again, he wanted to confirm whether Jin Zhu was on the plane, and learned that Jin Zhu had changed the ticket, Li Ruizhong only said three words, "Thank you." β
The next day, Jin Zhu and Li Xiang specially changed into pink couple T-shirts, took a handful of pink carnations and walked into the hospital again.
As soon as they arrived at the door of the ward, Jin Zhu and Li Xiang saw a bunch of people gathered in the old man's ward, and when the two were hesitating whether to step forward, Li Fang saw them and beckoned them to enter the door with a smile.
"A few of my father's students are here today, and a few of them are my classmates, so I'm just going to introduce you to them."
After introducing these people one by one, Li Fang patted Li Xiang on the shoulder and said: "This is Fang Chuyan's student, called Li Xiang, Li of Dawn, Miss Xiang, it can be regarded as my father's New Year's friend, graduated from Q University of Architecture, and now comes to Harvard for further study, my father said that he is very talented in painting, and the one next to him is his wife Yang Jinzhu, a student of the History Department of Imperial Capital University." β
The youngest of these people is also in their forties, and they live abroad all the year round, and most of them have successful careers, so they rarely pay attention to the domestic entertainment industry, so they basically don't know Li Xiang, let alone Yang Jinzhu.
"How did a student of architecture become Fang Chuyan's student?" Questions were raised.
"When I was in middle school, I couldn't afford to learn art because of poor economic conditions, and after entering the university, I often went to the Academy of Fine Arts to take classes, and I was fortunate to get Professor Fang's guidance, and then Professor Fang saw that I still had some understanding, so he simply accepted me as a disciple." Li Xiang explained generously.
"Li Xiang, are you the Chinese college student who has won two American architectural design awards? Last year, you won a Japanese architectural design award? Someone remembered Li Xiang's identity.
After all, this is something that happened in the United States, and when Li wanted to be nominated, he was still a student, a student from the mainland, so they naturally paid attention to it.
"Yes, yes, the old man said that he has a talent for painting, which is not also used in architectural design, this child has not been idle in recent years, and has partnered with others to open a design company, and his reputation is not bad." Li Yifang took over the words.
A few people saw that Li Fang had spared no effort to recommend Li Xiang, and they couldn't help but look at this young man again.
These people are not fledgling young guys, so they can naturally taste the intentions behind Li Fangfang, although they can't guess the relationship between Li Xiang and the Li family, but they can also guess that there must be some origin, so they echoed one after another.
However, Li Xiang and Jin Zhu are not used to dealing with such a scene, saying that they are not used to it, mainly because they are still resistant, and they do not want to use the connections of the Li family and the resources of the Li family.
"Master, how do you feel today?" Jin Zhu pulled Li Xiang and squeezed in front of the old man.
"Okay, okay, it's okay, my old bones can still hold on." When the old man saw the two of them, he stretched out both hands, holding the golden beads in one hand and Li Xiang in the other, and stacked the four hands together.
"Grandpa, you will definitely be fine, didn't you say that you want to watch me get married and watch my cousin and cousin get married, so you will definitely live a long life." Yu Yan rushed over and leaned closer to the old man.
Seeing this, Jin Zhu and Li Xiang took the initiative to let go of the old man's hand, and Li Ruizhong on the side saw it, twisted his brows slightly, and stepped forward to talk to the two, mainly to ask Li Xiang when he would register, when Jin Zhu would return to China, and whether Li Xiang would accept advertisements or film and television dramas.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for the doctor to come in, and the old man was about to go to the operating room, and when he pushed the operating table out, the old man beckoned to Li Xiang, and Li Xiang took a step forward, "Remember what the master told you that day, child, in case the master, this is the master's intention." β
Li Fangfang heard it and hurriedly walked over, "Dad, don't worry, I remember." β
Jin Zhu knew what the old man was talking about, and also interjected, "Master, don't worry, you will definitely come out well, we are still waiting for you to eat crabs and draw crabs together." β
The old man blinked and replied with a few "yes".
After the old man entered the operation, his protΓ©gΓ© apprentice and the old man did not leave, everyone sat down in the lounge next to the operation, and Jin Zhu and Li Xiang were no exception.
Just a few minutes after sitting down, Li Fang called Li Xiang over to talk to those people, and Jin Zhu was stopped by Yu Yan, asking Jin Zhu where she went to play after coming to the United States, asking Jin Zhu if she wanted to study in the United States, asking Jin Zhu what specialties and hobbies she had, and also asking Jin Zhu what brand of clothes she liked, etc.
"Jinzhu is different from you, she studies history, and she likes traditional culture, you are a student of economics, and she is full of copper smell, so you will definitely not be able to talk to her." Li Ruizhong smiled and joked.
"Cousin, if we study economics are full of copper smell, then what does it smell like for you, a capitalist of a listed company?" Yu Yan was not annoyed, and replied with a smile.
"What else can it smell like, the smell of gold with a capital letter." Li Ruizhao added.
"Yes, yes, yes, gold smells, haha, this word is really good, my cousin is not golden from top to bottom, it is a big golden turtle with gold and diamonds, and I don't know who is lucky enough to fish you." Yu Yan clapped her hands and whispered.
Jin Zhu paid attention, jokes are jokes, this is Yu Yan's upbringing is really good, in public, it is not annoying when she is angry, she is not noisy when she is happy, and she also knows how to create topics, and she is easy not to embarrass people.
Of course, this is only what the gold beads feel on the surface.
A few young people talked and laughed together, and the time passed, during which Li Ruizhong and Li Ruizhao went to buy some hamburgers and pizza for everyone, and they dealt with it.
At half past two in the afternoon, the lights in the operating room went out, and the doctor came out with a smile on his face, saying that the operation was a success.
Since it was estimated that it would take ten hours for the old man to wake up, everyone got up to say goodbye, and Jin Zhu and Li Xiang were naturally no exception.
"Ah Xiang, Jin Zhu, you wait a minute, I have something to tell you." Li Fang wanted to keep these two people.
The key to the safe hasn't been given out yet.
"No, Jin Zhu catches the plane, let's go first, please trouble Mr. Li to wait for the master to wake up and talk to the master." After Li Xiang finished speaking, he didn't wait for Li Fang to answer, and took Jin Zhu's hand and strode away.
Because at this time, Li Xiang couldn't help but think of his grandmother, at this time he felt very ashamed of his grandmother, if his economic conditions were better at that time, and he took his grandmother to the imperial capital or the magic capital for surgery, maybe his grandmother would not be unable to get off the operating table, right?
So can he still touch his grandmother's warm smile and warm hands today?
Thinking of the old man from his grandmother, no matter what, the smooth operation of the old man is also a good thing for him, at least, he doesn't have to go through the pain of losing and doesn't have to feel guilty about the old man.
As for his future life, don't be involved if he can, he is already ashamed of his grandmother, and he must not betray his grandmother again.
That night, Jin Zhu got on the plane back to the imperial capital, and Li Xiang also started his own new life, starting school, buying a house, designing, decorating, shooting cover advertisements, a lot of things were waiting for him, so the hospital didn't go much.
And after returning to the imperial capital, Jin Zhu was also busy starting school, writing novels, and sorting out the papers of the last trip to Yun Province with Xie Jinhua and Kang Xin, so he put aside those messy chores.
This afternoon, Jin Zhu just came out of Xie Jinhua's office, and was hurrying out, she was going to attend Jin Liu's parent-teacher meeting, she was in her third year of high school, and the teachers at the school attached great importance to the cooperation of parents, and had already called Jin Zhu several times, asking her to attend.
Who knew that when she just walked to the school gate and was about to take a taxi, a black Audi stopped beside her, and after the glass of the car window fell, a short-haired lady in a white shirt was revealed, in her fifties, and her first feeling to Jin Zhu was very neat and neat, because even if she was sitting in the car, Jin Zhu could feel that her spine was very straight.
The same is true for the facial features, although they are still dignified and exquisitely maintained, but because they have to maintain the majesty of the superior for a long time, this person does not look easy-going at all, on the contrary, he is a little arrogant and rigid, in short, not very pleasing.
When Jin Zhu was wondering who this lady was, the other party reported to his home, "Come on, I'm Li Pujia, and Li Fang is my brother." β
"Hello, are you in a hurry?" Jin Zhu looked at his watch, and if he didn't rush to school, he wouldn't be able to catch up with Jin Liu's parent-teacher conference.
"Got a date?" Li Pujia glanced at Jin Zhu.
"It's not a date, it's my sister's parent-teacher conference, you wait a minute, I'll find someone else to open it on my behalf."
Jin Zhu guessed that the other party must have something to say when she came to the door, so she called Liu Sheng and asked Liu Sheng to temporarily pretend to be a parent, so that Liu Sheng would pick up Jin Liu all day long, and the teacher also knew him.
Hung up the phone, Jin Zhu got into the car.
Along the way, Li Pujia didn't speak, and Jin Zhu had to purse her lips and didn't ask where the driver went.
The car stopped on the side of a slightly secluded road a few minutes later, Jin Zhu saw Li Pujia sitting still, she didn't move, and within a few seconds, the driver got out of the car.
"I heard you went to see my father when you were in the United States?" The other party spoke first.
"Yes, it was Mr. Li who called us to tell us that my master was hospitalized and needed to have a major operation."
"Master?"
"My grandson used to study under Professor Fang Chuyan, Professor Fang is a disciple of Shigong, and the first time we met Shigong was at Professor Fang's house, at that time, we didn't know the origin of the Li family."
"Listen to what you mean, do you plan to recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors?" Li Pujia looked at Jin Zhu very seriously and asked.
"We never had that idea."
"And him, too?"
Jin Zhu saw that the other party's tone was a little suspicious, and couldn't help but sneer, "Zu? What is an ancestor? My grandson only knew that he was brought up by his grandmother, and his grandmother had entrusted him with a dream before she died, and he could not forgive the man who hurt his mother in his life, and his son was a filial person, and he did not dare to forget his grandmother's advice for a moment, so he couldn't do anything to forget his ancestors. β
"You?" Li Pujia raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and her eyes widened.
"Does Ms. Li have anything to do with me today?" Jin Zhu glanced back at the other party lightly.
"Okay, let's not mention this matter first, I just ask you, I heard that you are looking for someone to investigate the accident in the Kang family's house last year, and you are also suspicious of Xiaozhao's mother, let me ask you, what do you want to do?"
"Ms. Li asked the wrong person, right? My grandson and I spoke softly, at that time we couldn't find out anything, but now that time has passed, and the case has long been decided, who can we find out now, and what can we find out? β
Jin Zhu paused after speaking, and without waiting for Li Pujia to ask, he continued: "Since Ms. Li found me today, I will tell you a word of support, we just want to live a simple and peaceful life, and all we ask for is this." β
"Well, I ask you, why do you approach us again and again, then? Why provoke trouble again and again? If it weren't for that kidnapping, Xiaozhao's mother would probably be a major general now. β
"Why don't you say it, if it weren't for Mr. Li, Ah Xiang's mother would still be a living person; If it weren't for Mr. Li, Ah Xiang's uncle would not have lost that leg, and he would not have been running outside for 20 years and would not dare to go home; If it weren't for Mr. Li, my grandmother and her old man would not have sent the white-haired person to the black-haired person on the one hand, and on the other hand, she would have to pull the orphans left by her daughter with hard work, so that she would die as soon as possible. Excuse me, to whom should we collect our debts? β
"You?" Li Pujia was speechless when asked, so she had to look at each other angrily, and suddenly thought of something, "Who can blame her, who told her not to be self-respecting?" If she is a self-respecting and self-loving woman, how can she commit herself to a stranger whom she has only met a few times? β
When Jin Zhu heard this, he laughed angrily, "Okay, very good, teachable, it turns out that we were bitten by flies, we were unlucky, we admit it." Then admit your bad luck, and who told this fly to come out of your house? β
After Jin Zhu finished speaking, she no longer looked at Li Pujia's face, hurriedly opened the car door and got out of the car, and if she talked to such a person again, she was afraid that she would not be able to control her actions.
After getting out of the car, Jin Zhu ran a few steps in a hurry, and then remembered that she had stopped a taxi on the side of the road, and she couldn't get over for a parent-teacher conference, so she simply went home. (To be continued.) )
