Chapter 517: The Year of Reunion (Asking for Tickets)
The last thing a year ago, Shi Lei took Fang Xuan back to the ice city, swept his mother's grave, and put incense on the pillars.
"Mom, I'm going to take Xuan Xuan to celebrate the New Year with my father and them, and I can come back to see you after the New Year. If you have any wishes, you can give me your dreams. My father originally wanted to come, but he had a lot of work a year ago, and he was very busy, so I will give you another pillar of incense on his behalf......" Shi Lei chattered for more than half an hour, during which he knelt in front of his mother's grave.
When Fang Xuan helped him stand up, he stumbled under his feet and almost fell. Fang Xuan patted the snow on his legs, finally wiped the tombstone, and helped Shi Lei to leave.
A light breeze blew, and a little snowflake fell in the sky.
first gave an early New Year's greeting to the old man Fang and his wife, and then went to Hu Changsheng, Miao Haokun and others' homes to pay New Year's greetings in advance, and after a delay of three days in Bingcheng, Shi Lei took Fang Xuan back to the capital, and after staying in Fang's house for two days, he flew back to Xiangjiang with Shi Xi and his family.
On the plane, Fang Xuan was still thinking about her mother's advice. When you arrive at the Shi family, especially when you see Old Man Shi, you can't be petty and ask for a director. Especially Zhou Caihong also deliberately let Fang Xuan learn a kind of Shunqi soup, and asked her to go back and cook it for Old Man Shi to drink, which is the only way to conquer the old man.
When they arrived in Xiangjiang, the family soon returned to the Shi family's mansion. There is no difference between this side and the Northeast, or Shi Chuxiong also respects some traditions, Shi Lei saw the couplet posted on the door, and a row of lanterns hung in the courtyard.
"Big guy, sister-in-law, auspicious New Year."
"Second brother, younger sibling, auspicious new year. Come in, Old Bean is waiting for you. β
After Shi Xitong met Shi Xixuan, his face was full of smiles, at least on the surface, the two brothers and the two families were still very close.
"Old bean, auspicious new year."
After Shi Xi finished talking with the couple. Shi Lei reluctantly pulled Fang Xuan and said a good New Year's message.
Seeing Fang Xuan, Shi Chuxiong's eyes lit up. This girl is really beautiful, and she understands the rules, you can know by looking at her appearance, and the tutor is very good.
"You're Fang Xuan. I asked Shi Lei to bring you over a long time ago, he always said that he was busy, and he finally saw him today. Come on, come on, come by my side. β
Shi Xixuan and his wife glanced at each other, it was not good, the old man was so happy to see Shi Lei, his fiancΓ©e.
Fang Xuan obediently sat beside the old man, then stretched out his hand and gently pinched the old man's shoulder. The old man's comfortable eyes narrowed into a slit.
"Okay, okay, grandpa knows your filial piety. You talk first, I'll go get gifts for the kids. β
Shi Chuxiong went upstairs, and Fang Xuan showed a smug smile at Shi Lei. See, in less than five minutes, the old man has already taken it, this is the table with high emotional intelligence!
Shi Lei never thinks that his emotional intelligence is very low, at least when he feels that he gets along with customers. He looks pretty good, but why is it so difficult to get along with the old man. He believes that this is the relationship between the two personalities.
After a while, the old man came down with four boxes, and seeing this, Shi Xixuan's heart became even more uncomfortable, and the old man even prepared a gift for Fang Xuan. It's all to blame Guangshan for not being angry, so he asked him to find a girlfriend early. He just didn't listen, and now he regrets it, right?
"Come on, come on, come here. Fang Xuan, this is yours, see if you like it or not. If you don't like it, grandpa will change it for you. β
Shi Guangfeng secretly gave Fang Xuan a thumbs up, he had never told him for so many years, his grandfather had never told him, he could still exchange gifts if he didn't like them, the difference in treatment was too big, right?
"Grandpa, as long as it's a gift from you, I like it. By the way, there is also a gift that Shi Lei and I prepared for you, you can see if you like it or not. Fang Xuan didn't open the box, but took out a paper bag from his bag.
Shi Xixuan smiled secretly in his heart, buying clothes for the old man, you can figure it out. The old man's clothes are all handmade, when do you wear things like yours that are produced on the assembly line?
Shi Chuxiong was also stunned for a moment, but still reached out and took the paper bag. When I opened it, I immediately smiled: "You knitted this yourself?" β
It is a sleeveless sweater, the handiwork is very ordinary, and the color is only blue and black, which looks a little dull, but it can be clearly seen that this is a hand-knitted sweater.
"Well, this is what I learned to weave, the craft is not good, grandpa, you won't dislike it, right?" Fang Xuan put on a pitiful look.
"Hahaha, how can you dislike it. After a while, my grandfather changed into it, and my favorite was the hand-knitted sweater, back then... Alas, don't mention it, grandpa is very happy. Take a look at the gift that grandpa gave you. β
Fang Xuan opened the gift given to him by the old man, and when he saw it, it turned out to be a jade bracelet. With Fang Xuan's eyes of wearing jade ornaments for so many years, she could see that this was definitely pure imperial green, and it seemed that it was still some years.
When he saw this jade bracelet, Shi Xixuan almost stood up.
How is this possible, this is his mother's relic, he begged for it several times and didn't ask for it, but today he actually gave Fang Xuan that little girl, why?
Shi Xitong was also stunned when he saw it, he couldn't imagine that the old man actually gave this beloved thing to Fang Xuan. Looking at the box in Fang Xuan's hand at all, it was obvious that the old man had changed it temporarily.
"Grandpa, this is too precious, isn't it? It seems to be an antique, look at the way you look, this has a special meaning for you? Was it left behind by grandma? Fang Xuan put on a look of liking and being embarrassed, and carefully put the jade bracelet back into the box.
Shi Chuxiong squeezed his eyes twice, trying to get the tears back: "This is indeed what she left, she said that she wanted to give us the first granddaughter-in-law of the Shi family, you can wear it and see if it looks good." β
Fang Xuan glanced at Shi Lei, Shi Lei didn't have any expression, she took off the bracelet on her hand and put on this jade bracelet. Not to mention, Fang Xuan's ears and neck were all jade ornaments, and when paired with this jade bracelet, it just looked like a set.
"Well, it's good-looking, you wear it just right, don't take it off. Shi Lei, this is for you. β
When the old man gave Shi Lei the second gift, Shi Xixuan understood that the old man recognized Shi Lei's status as the eldest grandson, otherwise he should give it to Shi Guangshan first, and then to Shi Lei.
Shi Lei stood up and took it, and said softly, "Thank you, grandpa." β
He just wanted to open it, but Fang Xuan tapped his hand. Where is there anyone who opens a gift in front of others, I just opened it when the old man asked me to open it. In case this gift is not to your liking, and your face is out of sight, will the old man not be able to see it?
"Guangshan, Guangfeng, these two are yours, you all take them apart and take a look."
The old man only said that they should take it apart and take a look, but he didn't say that if they didn't like it, they could change it, which was enough to see the difference between the old man and the other party.
The box of three people was opened, and it was all a key. However, Shi Lei is the key to the house, and Shi Guangshan and Shi Guangfeng are the car keys.
"Shi Lei, you live in a small house in the capital, how can this work, you are about to get married, and you will have more children in the family in the future, how can you live in that small house? This is a villa in the capital, I have asked the lawyer to come to your name, and you can sign it when you go back. β
Shi Lei wanted to refuse, but Shi Xitong gave him a positive look. He thought for a moment and said to the old man, "Thank you, grandpa." β
"Hmm. Guangshan, Guangfeng, both of you are in the same car, grandpa didn't let you drive before, you still drive secretly. Of course, it's not that grandpa is reluctant to buy you a car, it's just that he is young and frivolous, and grandpa is afraid that you will race with others. Now that you are all older, you will go to work at Taishi International after the New Year, how can you go without a car. Remember, don't think that Taishi International is our family that has the final say, so you disdain others, they can achieve that position and become a leader, there must be their advantages. What you have to do is to learn more from them and strive to surpass them as soon as possible. β
"Got it, thank you grandpa."
Shi Lei was a little surprised, the old man didn't say anything about letting him work at Taishi International, it seems that he is finally dead. Shi Lei was ready to finish the affairs of Shisheng Holdings, so he invested all the money in the Wufang Group, striving to buy the shares from the Wu brothers at a high price, and then first make the Wufang Group the largest agency company in China.
After giving the gift, the old man went upstairs again, and when he came down, he had really changed into a sweater woven by Fang Xuan. Fang Xuan also walked over to help tidy up, the old man was flushed, obviously very satisfied with this sweater.
In fact, Shi Lei can see at a glance that although the size of this sweater is quite appropriate, it is obviously not as good as the one that the old man wore just now, whether it is in terms of color, style or handwork, it is not a little worse. It's a pity that the sweater was knitted by someone else, but this one was hand-woven by Fang Xuan, the granddaughter-in-law, and the meaning is very different.
What Shi Lei didn't expect was that the old man actually liked to watch the Spring Festival Gala of CCTV, and pulled everyone to sit in the living room together, eating melons and fruits to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
"Shi Lei, are there any artists from your company here?" The old man seemed to ask casually.
"There is a male artist, who is the tallest in the duet just now, and there is a female artist in our company at the fifteenth party." Shi Lei replied.
"Well, I've seen your entertainment company, and it's okay. Heard that someone has ever cracked down on your company? If this happens again, call me, I want to see which entertainment company is so crazy! The old man picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.
I have to say that this tea is also a kung fu tea made by Fang Xuan himself, although there are some mistakes and omissions in the technique, but the old man thinks it is very delicious. I have long wanted to drink a cup of granddaughter-in-law tea, I originally thought it would be many years, but I didn't expect it to come true today.
How good this granddaughter-in-law is, she not only resolved Shi Lei's Tiansha Lone Star life, but also was well-behaved and sensible, I heard that working in Taishi International for a period of time is also very good. can go to the hall, enter the kitchen, and help her husband in his career, Shi Lei's life is still good.
Shi Lei looked at the old man, I don't know why, and suddenly felt a little moved. At this time, he heard the meaning of the family from the old man's words.
"Thank you, grandpa." This sentence is Shi Lei's most sincere today. (To be continued......)
