Chapter Ninety-Six: Re-Rational Relations
"Mr. Yan, why are you standing here?" When Steward Li of the Su family's old mansion came back from outside, he saw Yan Weidong's car parked near the old mansion, and Yan Weidong was standing next to the car, staring at the old mansion.
"Are Master and Master both at home today?"
"Yes. Isn't Mr. Yan going in today? Steward Li looked at Yan Weidong, accustomed to Mr. Yan passing through the door and not entering, and asked a lot of questions.
"Master is at home, so I won't go in. Steward Li greeted Master and Mrs. on my behalf. Yan Weidong was timid, and after half a day of mental construction, he was finally ready to leave.
Steward Li gently bowed his head and watched Yan Weidong get into the car.
"Mr. Yan, stay."
Steward Li listened to the instructions coming from his ears, and he couldn't believe it.
"My lord called you in."
Seeing that Steward Li had already put on a posture of invitation, Yan Weidong still looked incredulous, for the first time in more than ten years, he was not turned away. Stepping on the quaint bluestone bricks of the Su family's old house, the hard stone stepped on like soft cotton, Yan Weidong tugged and tugged on his suit, for fear that he would not be dressed properly.
Su Quan in the old mansion looked at Mu Shichang waiting restlessly, "Old Mu, are you nervous?" ”
"What am I nervous about, I see that little rabbit cub nervous? Joke. Mu Shichang was exposed, his face was blue and red, he simply sat down, fiddled with the tea set, watched the tea soup enter the cup, and poured it out in annoyance.
Yan Weidong, who had just walked to the door, happened to hear Mu Shichang's angry scolding, he was middle-aged, but no one scolded himself for a long time.
As the heavy door of the old mansion opened, Mu Shichang's fingers pouring tea shook invisibly.
"Hello master." Yan Weidong glanced at Mu Shichang's appearance of drinking tea without turning a deaf ear, and had to say hello to Su Quan first.
"Okay, it's all right, Xiao Yan sit down." Su Quan beckoned Yan Weidong to sit down, and suddenly muttered a little uncomfortably in his heart, in the past, Yan Weidong called his master and wife himself, after all, he was indeed more than ten years older in age, but now, because of Chenchen, he felt awkward and strange.
"Thank you, Mrs." Yan Weidong sat precariously, looking at Su Quan's strange face, thinking that it was because of Mu Shichang's relationship, and he didn't have time to think about anything else.
The atmosphere was a little silent, Mu Shichang poured the tea and handed it over. "Thank you, Master." Yan Weidong hurriedly took it, put his five fingers together into a fist, and knocked the center of his fist down three times on the table.
"Good tea. The taste is thick and fragrant, but not bitter, rich in astringency but not astringent, and has a sense of filling. After Yan Weidong smelled the fragrance and looked at the color, he took a slow sip while it was hot and praised it from the bottom of his heart.
Mu Shichang raised his eyebrows, sat up straight and looked at Yan Weidong, "Since you think the tea is good, then let your master and wife take it away for you when you leave." ”
"Well, that's not good." Yan Weidong was flattered, not only was he able to visit today, but he could also take something with him when he left, and he always couldn't believe it. Seeing that Mu Shichang was not saying anything, Yan Weidong continued to taste the tea and did not dare to speak.
Su Quan next to him was uncomfortable with a smile, thinking that Lao Mu was really bad, the black tea was originally bought by Chen Chen for Xiao Yan, but he asked him to borrow flowers to offer Buddha, it is estimated that Xiao Yan didn't dare to drink it even if he brought it back. After watching it for a long time, Su Quan decided to go back to the room by herself, the atmosphere was too tense and not suitable for her.
With Su Quan's departure, Yan Weidong didn't dare to drink any more tea, so he had to sit down properly.
"Master, is he well?"
"Okay."
Cold again, Yan Weidong looked at the empty Su family's old house uneasily, "Old lady Su is still well." ”
"Okay."
……
Mu Shichang looked at the nervous Yan Weidong, and also sighed, he was in his prime, and the young man who was twenty years old is now nearly half a hundred years old.
"Weidong is also forty and six this year, pay attention to his body, and he still has to learn to delegate power in business matters."
"Well, the company is developing steadily now, so I don't have to worry too much, thank you Master for your concern."
Mu Shichang looked at Yan Weidong and paused silently, "Don't call me master, now that I have retired, you have already resigned, and this master-apprentice relationship has long ceased to exist." ”
"Master, I'm ......" Yan Weidong was anxious, thinking that the master called him into the house today to release his suspicions, but now it is more like drawing a line.
"Listen to me." Mu Shichang raised his hand to stop Yan Weidong's nervous movements from leaving the sofa, "There is only a fifteen-year difference between us, and the difference between Chenchen and Xiaoqin is only six or seven years old, so we don't have to be called like this." If you have to choose a title, you will call me Brother Mu in the future. ”
After Mu Shichang finished speaking, he picked up the teacup with a little weakness, covering his flushed face, Rong Ma has been half a life, and when he is old, he has to pull down half of his old face for his daughter.
Yan Weidong was puzzled by these words, could it be that older people don't want to admit that they are old? Brother Mu seems to sound a lot younger.
"Brother Mu." Yan Weidong called out tentatively.
Mu Shichang's heart burst out when he heard this, hoping that Yan Weidong would know the truth of the matter in the future, and he could take care of the feelings of his master and apprentice, and not turn his face and deny people.
"Hmm."
"Brother Mu." Yan Weidong's mood relaxed a lot, and he began to gossip about homely mode, "Chenchen is also a big girl now, and sure enough, the tiger father has no dog girl." ”
"Have you seen Chenchen?" Mu Shichang was a little surprised, with his understanding of Yan Weidong's traditional pedantic thoughts, if he knew that Chenchen would fall in love with his baby daughter again, let alone sit here and talk to himself, he was afraid that he would have destroyed Chenchen in minutes, and the master would not recognize him.
"I've met a few times, our company now has a project docking with Sansen Group, and the person in charge of docking is Chenchen, and I only learned about Chenchen's relationship with you today, so I remembered to visit you. When I just followed behind you, Chenchen was still young, and more than 20 years have passed, if I wasn't sure of my identity, I was afraid that I wouldn't dare to recognize Chenchen when I walked on the street. ”
"Oh, I see." Mu Shichang was thinking about something, did Chenchen and Xiaoqin know each other because of work? "Xiaoqin is also a big girl now, and she is also in her twenties this year, right?"
"Well, it's the year of the flower letter. But you know, Xiaoqin is a young month, and she hasn't had a birthday yet. ”
"Do you work for your company now?"
"No, I now work at Leifei's law firm. She majored in law in college, and she happened to be recruited by Lei Fei when she was recruited, and I only found out later. ”
"Lei Fei, that kid from Gu Tingxiong's family?"
"Well, Uncle Gu's son." Yan Weidong blurted out, and looked at Mu Shichang when he felt that it was not appropriate.
"You don't need to be called by your uncle and uncle, and it's not a serious relationship with your teacher, just call Brother Gu directly in the future." Mu Shichang drastically lowered Gu Tingxiong's seniority in this way, so that when Yan Weidong saw Gu Tingxiong again, he directly said Brother Gu, but Gu Tingxiong was stunned.
"Hmm." Yan Weidong doesn't have any opinions, Gu Tingxiong is only ten years older than him, and he is reluctant to call him uncle, but he was oppressed when he was young, so he is used to it, and he can be sneering next time they meet.
