Chapter 134: Uncle who came to pay New Year's greetings
When Lin Ran was puzzled, Old Man Lin, who had listened to Uncle Cheng's whispers, also glanced at her, pondered for a moment, and then spoke: "Please let him in, after all, he is also a relative." ”
Hearing this, Lin Ran's heart suddenly shook.
She felt like she had vaguely guessed what was going on.
Seeing Uncle Cheng walk out, the old man glanced at a circle of people with different expressions, and said lightly: "It's nothing, isn't Ranran's uncle in Yancheng, come over on the first day of the Lunar New Year today to pay a New Year's greeting." ”
Lin Ran's uncle...... Isn't it Zhou Huai'an?
Ning Jiaoli and Jin Congmeng's eyes became weird when they looked at Lin Ran, Zhou Xixue and the Zhou family had not been in contact for so many years, this is a well-known fact, and the Lin family and the Zhou family have not moved around in these years.
After the Zhou family was completely developed, they also laughed at Lin Ran in private, saying that her life was not good, and she didn't say anything about her father, and finally her mother's family got up, but she couldn't borrow a little bit of light, and the relationship was so stiff.
After the incident in Su Cheng came out, they had been looking forward to the Zhou family's actions, but the Zhou family was quiet, as if they didn't know about it at all, and Zhou Huai'an was an unpredictable character, and it was even more impossible to find out his opinion through the people around him.
Why did you suddenly come over to greet the Lin family now?
After a while, Uncle Cheng walked in with Zhou Huai'an, and the man didn't squint, but just bowed to the second elder: "Senior Zhou Huai'an, I wish the second elder a happy New Year and good health." ”
Someone brought him a gift.
It's a mess.
"You said you would come, what else would you bring with you?" The second elder had the same kind smile on his face as when he saw Mo Zhi coming, "This is the order, have you had dinner?" Let the kitchen serve you a bowl of shredded chicken noodle soup to eat? ”
Not to mention the other people here, even Lin Ran felt a little strange.
The last time she was taken out for dinner by Mo Zhi, what did the second elder of the Lin family say to Zhou Huai'an?
Zhou Huai'an smiled faintly: "I came here after dinner, and today I met the employees on duty in the company here in Yancheng, so we ate together." ”
Old Man Lin nodded: "It's also right, people can't go home for the New Year, so they have to care about it." ”
Looking at the hint that the old lady gave herself, Lin Ran moved back a seat and gave up the place she had just sat in to Zhou Huai'an.
I still wonder in my heart, which play is this singing?
He sat down without seeing anything, and after chatting with the old couple for a few words of work, Old Man Lin asked with a smile: "Then this time, do you come to see the company in Yancheng, or do you plan to develop in Yancheng for a long time?" ”
"The Yancheng market is good, I really plan to stay in Yancheng for a few years to see if I can open up a new market." Zhou Huai'an took the water handed over by Uncle Cheng, thanked him and replied without humility or arrogance.
Lin Qi, who had made eye contact with Jin Congmeng for a long time, interjected with a smile at this time: "I don't know what kind of business Mr. Zhou wants to do?" To tell you the truth, I also have some business in my hands, so you can just say it when you need help. ”
Zhou Huai'an naturally didn't pay attention to such a simple inquiry, and still maintained a polite smile: "At present, I am still investigating, what I want to do specifically, and it depends on what business Ran Ran is interested in in the future, I just came to pave the way for her." ”
As soon as the words came out, the whole audience was shocked.
Several people in the second and third rooms looked at each other, and they all doubted their ears.
What did Zhou Huai'an say? Paving the way for whom?
Lin Ran subconsciously looked at the second elder of the Lin family sitting at the top, but found that the two of them looked as usual, not surprised at all, obviously they had already known the news.
Could it be that Zhou Huai'an came to the Lin family before to talk about this?
"This ...... I didn't expect Mr. Zhou to value Lin Ran so much," Lin Zheng, who had been making a background board today, suddenly spoke, although he was also smiling, his eyes were staring at Zhou Huai'an's expression, "It's just that how did you think of being in Yancheng, isn't Ranran still studying in Suzhou City now?" ”
Zhou Huai'an played Tai Chi: "Now it is convenient to work remotely, if Ran Ran doesn't want to come to Yancheng in the future, it will be the same in Sucheng." ”
Jin Congmeng really couldn't help it, laughed, and interjected the words hard: "Mr. Zhou, don't be surprised that I speak straight. Lin Ran's mother had a quarrel with the Zhou family back then, which was equivalent to breaking off the relationship, why are you ...... now? Thinking of paving the way for Ranran? ”
This may also be the voice of everyone in the room.
Mrs. Lin just wanted to open her mouth to take the topic away, but Mr. Lin handed her a look, and the tacit understanding between the husband and wife over the years made Mrs. Lin immediately understand that this was to tell her not to interfere and see how Zhou Huai'an would answer.
"This lady," Zhou Huai'an put down the teacup in his hand, "I think you misunderstood, although my sister has been busy with her career and family all these years and has no time to return to her hometown, this does not mean that we have broken off our relationship." ”
Speaking of this, he lowered his eyes and smiled: "It's more and more broken, all relationships in the world can be guessed by interests, but blood relations are inherently irrelevant and can never be broken." Xixue is my only sister, isn't it normal for me to take care of them? ”
Speaking of the end, the pair of eyes that were extremely similar to Lin Ran stared at Jin Congmeng, his pupils were extremely black, and his pupils were small, so although his face was smiling, his eyes were like beasts staring at his prey, and they were cold.
Jin Congmeng, who watched it, shivered in a room as warm as a spring day.
Seeing that she moved her lips and didn't speak, Lin Qi couldn't hold back, and then asked, "Mr. Zhou is right, but doesn't Lin Ran have a sister?" In case she wants to come to Yancheng in the future......"
The tail note is deliberately lengthened, leaving a large blank space for everyone to guess.
"You're joking, my daughter has made it clear that she has no ambitions, she just wants to be safe and secure in her hometown." Zhou Huai'an glanced at Lin Ran as if he hadn't been to Yancheng, "It's not that she hasn't been to Yancheng, it's a pity that fate hasn't arrived." ”
The meaning of these words is intriguing.
Lin Qi asked about Qiao An'an, who had snatched Lin Ran's marriage contract and regarded herself as the eldest lady of the Qiao family outside, but Zhou Huai'an didn't mention Qiao An'an a word from the time he came in to the present, not even mentioning the Qiao family, even if he mentioned Lin Ran's sister, he was talking about his own daughter.
Could it be that in the eyes of the current head of the Zhou family, there is only one niece in Lin Ran?
"Okay," looking at the two couples in the second and third rooms frantically exchanging glances, Old Man Lin finally spoke, "Tomorrow the two of you will welcome the married daughter back to her parents' house, so it's better to go back and rest early." ”
Hearing the string song and knowing the elegant meaning, Zhou Huai'an also stood up: "It's late, I won't disturb the rest of the second elder, and I will retire today." ”
Glancing at Lin Yiye and Fang Shanshan, who didn't know what to think next to them, they were sitting dumbly, Old Man Lin frowned slightly, and smiled randomly the same as usual: "If the family doesn't talk to the two families, I won't keep you." Be careful on the road, and come to the house more often when you have time, and send your uncle off. ”
Lin Ran, who had already stood up, answered, and walked out with Zhou Huai'an.
"There are many people in the Lin family who don't like you." As soon as the door of the living room was closed, Lin Ran heard Zhou Huai'an say lightly.
She smiled: "Look at me unpleasantly? Obviously, it is unpleasant to see that I may take away the inheritance. ”
The two of them walked out slowly, and Zhou Huai'an said, "It's good that you know it in your own heart." It seems that before the second elder of the Lin family went abroad, they were full of energy to do something. ”
"How do you know...... Forget it," thinking about it, the old couple was not the slightest surprised today, and Lin Ran gave up asking, "They are so capable, they will definitely suffer a big loss if they treat everyone except themselves as fools." ”
Zhou Huai'an looked at the girl beside him who had faded from her smile: "I thought you wouldn't care about them." ”
Lin Ran glanced at him strangely: "If it's you, there is such a group of hungry wolves next to your closest relatives, wouldn't you care?" ”
She can't care about others, but if she beats the idea of the old couple, then don't blame her for an eye.
"If you don't care, there's no need for you to know about it." Zhou Huai'an stopped in the garden, looked at the brightly lit house behind him for a while, and said.
