Chapter 83: Grandfather and Grandson
Lu Xintou returned to City A, and it was already afternoon that day, and he returned to the mansion.
It's been half a year since he last returned to the mansion, and his grandmother was so happy to see him come back, so she kept him down for dinner.
Lu Xintou sat on the sofa in the living room, letting her grandmother touch and look.
He saw tears in his eyes. In fact, the old people are very nostalgic and attached to their children and grandchildren, at that moment, he felt sorry for his grandmother, because of the conflict between him and his grandfather, and stayed away from his grandmother for so many years.
The old man may have heard the movement, and came out of the study upstairs, with reading glasses on the bridge of his nose, standing on the second floor looking at Lu Xintou.
Lu Xintou also saw him, but Lu Xintou just looked at him from a distance and didn't say hello.
After only half a year, he found that the old man was really much older, his face was a little thinner than before, his hair was gray, his walking was slow, and he didn't know if he could go out to play golf with the young man in his current state.
When grandma saw it, she greeted him: "Old man, come down quickly, our Tou'er is back"
The old man actually snorted lightly, and walked back to the study slowly, without saying hello to Lu Xintou from beginning to end.
At that moment, Lu Xintou's mood was complicated and lost. When he came back, he thought that if the old man's attitude was a little better, for the sake of his grandmother, he would not have to go toe-for-tat with him, but it was obvious that the old man's attitude was still the same, which made Lu Xintou's heart hard again.
Maybe he's really stupid, even if he needs family affection, it's impossible to find the old man, there is still a hurdle between the old man and him, that is, the death of his mother. When the old man forced his mother to death, it was not his fault that he hated him. And the old man has not admitted his mistakes in the slightest for so many years, and he also hates him coldly, so how can he be in a good mood to face the old man
Lu Xintou was disappointed, he even spread his hands helplessly, expressing his disappointment, and it was precisely because of the old man's behavior that he deeply felt that there was no need to ease the relationship with the old man, and the relationship between their grandfather and grandson was like this.
Grandma persuaded him in the middle: "Your grandfather is just a knife-mouthed tofu heart, he hasn't seen you in the past six months, and he once asked me about you." ”
Lu Xintou sneered indifferently: "What did he ask me about?"
"He asked me what you've been up to lately. ”
"Doesn't he know the company's affairs very well, what I do, the people under him should report to him. ”
"That's not what your grandfather meant, he cared about you, but he was embarrassed to show it, so he asked me. ”
"Grandma, don't speak for him, I know what he is, and he knows what I am, if he doesn't want to see me, then he won't want to see me, there's nothing to say. ”
Grandma was helpless, sat aside sadly, was silent for a while, and asked him: "Then are you going to stay at home tonight and come back once?"
"No, because I have a meeting tomorrow morning, I have to go to the subsidiary early, and the ion company is too far away, so I'd better go back to my place to live." After a pause, Lu Xin saw that his grandmother was sad, so he smiled and comforted, "Grandma, the New Year is coming soon, I can also come back to see you during the New Year, and Dad" He paused for a moment before he spoke, "Mom, don't your younger brothers and sisters come back too, you don't have to be sad." ”
"You know that I love you the most, so many grandchildren, I feel the most sorry for you, you don't even understand your grandmother. Grandma still cried.
Later, when the family ate, Lu Xintou served more vegetables for her grandmother, comforted her, and completely left the old man aside.
The old man made a soup, and the soup was next to Lu Xintou, he didn't call Lu Xintuo, and Lu Xintou didn't take the initiative to help, and later he needed a nanny to help, and the grandfather and grandson seemed very estranged.
The old man was alienated for a while, and suddenly took the initiative to ask Lu Xintou: "Whether to sleep in your room or in the big bedroom tonight, I can decide which study I want to read."
Lu Xintou has two rooms in the big house, a small room is where he has been living, and a large room was originally the marriage room of his father and mother, after his mother died, his father married his stepmother, and he did not live in the old marriage room, but changed to live in another large bedroom.
The old wedding room was originally going to be converted into a study, but Lu Xintou had nightmares and cried when he was a child, so he liked to run to the old wedding room, as if there was a smell of his mother there, and the family had no choice, so they kept the room for him.
When Lu Xintou was a child, his father, stepmother and younger siblings were there, the family was crowded, he didn't have a ** study, so he used to use the old marriage room as a study, and when he was tired of reading, he simply slept in it, so his family couldn't figure out where he slept fixedly, so he simply defaulted to the old marriage room as his room, and he slept wherever he wanted.
His father and stepmother, after going abroad with his younger siblings, the room at home was a lot empty, and his grandfather also occupied his father's study
Because there are two study rooms, one next to Lu Xintou's small room, and one next to the old wedding room. When his grandfather saw him coming back, he thought that he would stay at home for one night, but he thought that the study was close to Lu Xintou's room, so he asked him where he slept first, so that he could decide which study to read in tonight.
When the old man spoke, he seemed to be snorting angrily, as if he was disgusted. But he never expected Lu Xintou to say, "I don't live at home tonight, so you can use your two study rooms with confidence." ”
The old man was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to say that don't you usually go home and stay for one night before leaving, so you only come back once in half a year, and your grandmother thinks of you so much, you still have to leave
But he still swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, and snorted vigorously and said, "It's better to worry if you don't live."
Grandma immediately patted the old man: "How can you be like this, Tou'er only comes back once, you can't talk well"
"Isn't it his freedom where he lives, does it have to beg my old man to beg for love wherever he lives," the old man was arrogant and very hard-mouthed.
Hearing these words in Lu Xintou's heart, he was very uncomfortable, although he didn't quarrel with the old man, but he had already made up his mind in his heart, he must leave tonight, and he won't come back easily in the future, his relationship with the old man is like this, he didn't say anything to redeem, he wanted to redeem it at the beginning, but he was stupid
After eating, Lu Xintou really left, and didn't stay for a moment, and grandma cried again.
Later, after Lu Xintou left, grandma complained to the old man: "Can't you talk well, just soften it a little, if you say a little good thing, maybe he won't leave tonight Look at you, drive my eldest grandson away"
Grandpa sat on the sidelines, smoking a cigarette and didn't speak.
"Your grandfather and grandson are a character, high-spirited, and hard-mouthed, I don't believe that you don't have a little guilt over the years, you don't want him or how do you hand over the company to him, you look at how much Touer looks like you, looks alike, the personality is similar, and the style of doing things is similar, it's just a young you who are alive and easy, you see such a grandson, you don't like to be more sticky to you when you were a child, always grandpa and grandpa pestering you to call, pestering you to hug, although you don't recognize his mother, but also hug him very diligently, every year on his birthday and the most active gifts, blame you for having to do that bad thing, a good family to break up, now the grandfather and grandson haven't said a word well for more than 20 years."
Grandma said, she cried when she got angry: "Although Yuqing's family is not worthy of our son, but after entering the house, she is filial enough to us, I recognize her, why don't you recognize it, and you don't recognize her, you have to ask our son to marry this new daughter-in-law, look, Chongyang flattered foreigners, and the family moved abroad, leaving our old couple to stay here alone, the only grandson who is still in the country, you still forced him away, you really want to see this big house empty, only our old couple is left, you are happy"
Grandma scolded for a long time, but the old man finally didn't reply a word, so grandma left sadly and didn't want to pay attention to him.
The old man kept smoking his cigarette stick and did not reply, and his eyes were wet when no one was around.
This is what happened in the more than a week that Lu Xintou was not in the subsidiary.
After he came out of his grandmother's house and returned to work in the company, because it was close to the end of the year, there were many meetings of the group company, sometimes several multinational meetings a day, and he could not stay in the subsidiary often, and then he went back to work in the group company.
In the group company, although he is only the president, there are senior members of the board of directors, and his father is the chairman, but the chairman is abroad all the year round, and it is not easy to manage domestic affairs, so he handed it over to Lu Xintho to deal with. The board meetings of the group company, as well as various cross-border meetings, are attended by Lu Xintou, so although Lu Xintou is only the president, everyone tacitly assumes that he is the future chairman.
In the company, no matter who he is, even the senior management of the board of directors, he has special respect for him, even if he is very young, even if he is only a president, but no one dares to treat him as a young president
Lu Xintou returned to the group company to deal with various meetings and the work at the end of the year, and today he was able to take the time to return to the subsidiary to be his small leader.
Being a part-time general manager in a subsidiary is actually a last resort, but it is not the first time Lu Xintou has done it.
When he just graduated from college, his father asked him to go to the subsidiary, and he was trained from the middle-level leaders of the key departments of the subsidiary, and climbed step by step to the position of the deputy general manager of the subsidiary, and then transferred back to the group, served as a leader in the key department, and climbed step by step to the position of the president of the group.
After he became president, when he acquired a new subsidiary and there were no suitable personnel available, he also personally served as the leader of other subsidiaries twice.
It can be said that Lu Xintou has studied IV's position and IV's operation and management model almost thoroughly.
When I first acquired Jinghui Venture Capital, I looked at the financial data, although it was the result of Jingchen's efforts to turn the tide after returning to China, but I couldn't resist being played too badly by the senior management of Jinghui Group in the early years, and the account was too bad.
This task is very arduous, at the group meeting, no high-level person dares to take on this job, and Lu Xintou can't pick a more suitable candidate, so he has no choice but to go out in person again.
Otherwise, how would the industry evaluate him as a desperate Saburo because he is really hardworking, and many jobs that others are unwilling to take, even if he is the president, he has taken it personally, and he has the ability to surpass ordinary people, no matter how bad the job is, he can do it well. The board of directors also has great trust and recognition in him
