Chapter 362: A Family Affair
Although his son Lin Xuan's identity is not ordinary now, Lin Yuanshan is still habitual, and in front of the Wang family, he always feels inferior and can't raise his head.
Hurriedly returned home, and saw Wang Xingguo sitting in the living room, especially his temperament of a superior who was not angry and arrogant, Lin Yuanshan suddenly became a little restrained, as if he was a guest.
Wang Xiaoyun sat opposite Wang Xingguo, also looking restrained, in his eldest brother, who had retired from the position of deputy minister, Wang Xiaoyun was also weak and unconfident.
Wang Xingguo put the teacup in his hand and gently placed it on the glass coffee table.
He had been serving the teacup for more than twenty minutes, and he hadn't taken a sip of it, because the tea was so bad.
The tea in Lin Xuan's house is bought from a nearby supermarket, it is very ordinary, and the price is not expensive, a can of 250 grams of tea is only a few dozen yuan, and Lin Dad likes to drink it very much.
And Wang Xingguo pays too much attention to drinking tea, and what he usually drinks is the big red robe produced on the mother tree of Wuyi Mountain, or the West Lake 'Imperial Eight' special Longjing tea, the price per catty is several times that of gold, and the water, utensils, and techniques for making tea are all exquisite.
It's like Lin Xuan's house, just use boiling water to flush it into a glass teapot, soak it casually for a few minutes, and then you can drink it.
If it was before, Wang Xingguo wouldn't even pick up the teacup, but now it's different from the past, because of Lin Xuan's identity, it's not easy to show too obviously, so he had to pick up the teacup and wanted to take a sip several times, but in the end he still didn't drink it, and he didn't drink a sip.
This tea is really terrible.
Lin Yuanshan returned home, nodded at Wang Xingguo on the sofa in the living room, and then asked Wang Xiaoyun on the side: "What's the matter?"
The son has the ability, and the parents should be happy.
But if you are too capable, parents will be worried.
As for Lin Xuan's kind of demon, Lin Dad and Lin Mom are worried every day, for fear that something will happen to Lin Xuan.
Especially when he saw Lin Xuan slap in the air and smash a twenty-centimeter-thick wall with one palm, knowing that there are still martial artists in the world, Lin Yuanshan and Wang Xiaoyun's worries about Lin Xuan have risen to a new level.
Even the two of them began to eat fasting and chant the Buddha, hoping that the Heavenly God and Buddha could bless Lin Xuan.
When Lin Yuanshan heard that it was about Lin Xuan, he took a taxi for the first time and hurried back.
Wang Xiaoyun stood aside, also anxious and worried, just opened his mouth, and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Wang Xingguo.
"Yuanshan, you put your heart down first, this time I deliberately rushed back to Jiangcheng to tell you a good thing related to Lin Xuan, and it is a great good thing. ”
Wang Xiaoyun and Lin Yuanshan were confused.
"A good thing?"
Wang Xingguo leaned back, leaned on the back of the old sofa, lifted Erlang's legs, looked arrogant, and his eyes had a hint of pride.
He had never looked down on his sister and cheap brother-in-law, if it weren't for Lin Xuan, he wouldn't even bother to say a word to Lin's father and Lin's mother.
In addition, for what he was going to say next, in his opinion, it should be Lin Xuan's family who wanted to thank him, so his attitude was inevitably a little contemptuous.
After pondering for a moment, he said slowly: "The old man said a family matter for Lin Xuan. ”
"What?"
Dad Lin and Mom Lin were shocked, with an incredible expression.
If you want to say that the person they are most afraid of is none other than Wang Yaowen, the old man of the Wang family, in order to break up the two of them, the old man can be described as an iron-blooded method, and he almost destroyed the two of them humanely.
Suddenly hearing the old man's name, the two of them shook, and a trace of horror flashed on their faces.
At the same time, worries rose in their hearts, how could the old man be a scheming man, how could he think of talking about his son for no reason.
Lin Dad and Lin Mom glanced at each other, and they both understood the meaning in each other's eyes.
Mother Lin turned her head, looked at Wang Xingguo, her smile was a little stiff, and said: "Big brother, my Xiaoxuan is still young, and he is still in school, I'm afraid it's too early to talk about marriage, I think it's better to talk about it in a few years." ”
Wang Xingguo's face suddenly stiffened, and he said coldly: "What is early! You don't know that among us wealthy families, there is no such thing as getting married early, some of them are engaged at the age of sixteen or seventeen, and even more, when they are born, their future has already been arranged. ”
Wang Xingguo is talking about the fact that in the eyes of most modern people, the so-called doll affinity marriage is like a joke and farce, which is a plot that only appears in TV dramas.
However, in those top wealthy families in China, marriage still maintains vigorous vitality and is regarded as a guarantee and bond of interest cooperation.
Not to mention Huaxia, even those top consortia and political families in Europe and the United States, marriages are also very popular, and their children have already arranged their future lives from the moment they are born.
Wang Xingguo paused for a moment, his face was gloomy, and he said with hatred: "Do you know which family the old man told Lin Xuan about?"
"It's the Tsumen Tang family!"
Jinmen City is the main transportation route for foreign exchanges between more than a dozen provinces and municipalities in northern China, and is also the largest port city in northern China, and is the important place and gateway of Gongwei Beijing, one of the five municipalities directly under the central government.
The Tang family is the top wealthy family in Tianjin, and the history of the family starts from the end of the Qing Dynasty, relying on compradors to prosper, and once became the largest comprador in the Republic of China, even foreigners have to rely on the Tang family.
The foreign weapons purchased by the major warlords also had to go through the Tang family, and more than half of the foreign banks, ticket houses, and silver horns had their shares.
During the Republic of China, it was claimed that the assets exceeded 100 million yuan (the tax revenue of the three eastern provinces was only 2,000 silver dollars a year when it was the most prosperous), and it was rich enough to rival the country, and it was unfading for three generations, evergreen for a hundred years, and has become a behemoth to this day.
After being known as the four major families in the capital, the fifth family of Huaxia is powerful all over the world.
Now Tang Hongda, the old man of the Tang family, is a legendary figure, he was ignorant when he was young, he went to the kiln all day long, played with the kiln sister, fought cocks and walked birds, fought and brawled, and was a big scourge in Jinmen.
Later, for some reason, he repented and resolutely joined the army, and after the tempering of the war, he became the founding general of New China.
Wang Yaowen, the old man of the Wang family, served as Tang Hongda's guard, and even saved his life, so he was able to manage the Wang family step by step into a big force in Shanghai.
If Wang Yaowen told Lin Xuan that the family was from the Tang family, Wang Xiaoyun really had no way to refute it.
Without that parent, they don't want their children to be better.
If the marriage with the Tang family can really be achieved, Lin Xuan's future and future will be brighter.
Seeing the shocked expression on Wang Xiaoyun's face, Wang Xingguo's stiff face gradually softened, and at the same time, a layer of smugness appeared.
Wang Xiaoyun asked, "Big brother, what you said is true?"
Wang Xingguo nodded, looking arrogant.
"Of course it's true. For the sake of your Lin Xuan's affairs, my father personally wrote a letter to Tang Lao, and used the favor of the year, and I personally visited the door, dotted up and down, and said all the good things, Tang Lao reluctantly agreed.
You must know that although Lin Xuan has made some achievements now, he is still far from the Tang family. ”
Wang Xiaoyun, who was originally dissatisfied with Wang Xingguo, showed a flattering smile on his face at this time, for the sake of his son, what is the matter of face.
"Big brother, thank you so much, if it weren't for you, how could our family Xiaoxuan climb such a good family. ”
Wang Xiaoyun gave Lin Yuanshan, who was confused on the side, a look, and Dad Lin understood, smiled awkwardly at Wang Xingguo, and then held back for a long time before holding back a few words.
"Xie, Brother Xie. ”
An imperceptible hint of sarcasm flashed on Wang Xingguo's face, waved his hand, and said, "What are you still standing for, hurry up and sit." ”
From beginning to end, Lin Dad and Lin Mom were standing.
Seeing the two of them sitting down, Wang Xingguo made a heartfelt look and said:
"Xiaoyun, Yuanshan, I can only help you get here, as for Lin Xuan's work, it depends on you to do it, and the young people now are proud and complacent when they make a little achievement, and there is no one in their eyes.
I'm afraid that Lin Xuan will have some rebellious mentality, self-righteousness, I don't know the height of the sky, I don't agree to this marriage, I wasted my father and my hard work in vain, and I wasted such a good opportunity. ”
Wang Xiaoyun said resolutely: "Big brother, don't worry, no matter how great Xiao Xuan's ability and status are, he is still my son, if he dares to refuse the kindness of you and his father, then I will not recognize him as a son." ”
A gleam flashed in Wang Xingguo's eyes, and he muttered, "That's good." ”
