Chapter 47: I Want to Be Your Grandfather
Of course, Xue Lao didn't know that Chu Zhen was reborn, but Xue Lao's words reminded Chu Zhen that low-key is the king.
"Grandpa Xue, I have loved reading since I was a child, and I should follow my parents, they both love to read."
At this time, Chu Zhen had to give Xue Lao a preventive shot first.
Since he met Chu Zhen, Chu Zhen has given Xue Lao the impression that he is gifted and talented, has unique opinions, has a cheerful personality, and treats people and things very decently, far better than his peers.
Xue Lao is also very curious, what kind of family can raise such an outstanding child?
So when Chu Zhen took the initiative to mention his parents, Xue Lao couldn't help asking:
"By the way, Xiao Zhen told grandpa about your family, right? Grandpa would love to know how your parents raised you. ”
"Okay, Grandpa Xue, my father's name is Chu Xueming, and he is a ...... of the National Institute of Geology and Mining."
Seeing that Xue Lao no longer continued to pay attention to himself, Chu Zhen breathed a sigh of relief and briefly introduced his family situation to Xue Lao, such as his parents' hometown, work unit and specific positions, as well as the basic information of his brothers and sisters.
Xue Lao nodded when he heard it and said:
"Well, it turns out that Xiaozhen, your parents are intellectuals, and your brothers and sisters are also very powerful, both of them are genuine college students, no wonder you are so knowledgeable and memorized, it seems that you have a family history."
"Grandpa Xue, you have won the award, our family can't talk about the origin of family learning, my dad is an authentic farmer, my mom ......"
Speaking of his mother Gu Xiyun's family background, Chu Zhen paused unconsciously, and then said:
"My mother also grew up in an ordinary family in Bashu Rong City, but my parents are more strict with us on weekdays, and they themselves have set an example for us. At the same time, my parents are very open-minded and encourage us to develop our own interests. ”
In fact, Chu Zhen's mother Gu Xiyun's family background is not simple, but Chu Zhen in the previous life didn't know his mother's family background at first, and he did think that his mother was just from an ordinary family in Rongcheng.
Although Chu's mother Gu Xiyun claimed to be a native of Bashu Rongcheng, Chu Zhen's grandfather's family was from the famous Tinglin Gu family in China. The Tinglin Gu family is one of the few great families in China that can last for more than a thousand years.
During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the Gu family was the head of the four great families of Wu County, known as the Gu Yewang of Confucius in the Dongjiang River, Gu Kaizhi, the painter of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Gu Yanwu, the great Confucian in the early Qing Dynasty, and Gu Weijun, a famous diplomat in the Republic of China, were all born in the court of Gu.
Chu Zhen's grandfather died very early, and Chu Zhen's grandmother lived with Chu Zhen's only uncle.
Every one or two years, Gu Xiyun would take her children back to Rongcheng to visit her mother and eldest brother, that is, Chu Zhen's grandmother and uncle.
In the previous life, my grandmother lived a long life, and she lived until she was ninety-five years old, and Gu Xiyun had been retired for many years at that time.
At his grandmother's funeral, Chu Zhen unexpectedly saw many unfamiliar faces, and what impressed Chu Zhen was that several young people among them were "full of aura", and even a little arrogant and rude.
Chu Zhen felt strange and asked his uncle, who was over the age of old, and the uncle said lightly that these people were from Shanghai and Suzhou, and they were distant relatives of Chu Zhen's grandfather, and then he didn't want to say it.
Later, her mother Gu Xiyun once talked to a few children, it turned out that their grandfather was from the famous Tinglin Gu family, but his grandfather fell out with the family because of a matter and moved to Bashu. Because his grandfather died very early, Gu Xiyun and Uncle Chu Zhen have not had much contact with the Tinglin Gu family for a long time.
This is all an afterthought, and after being reborn, Chu Zhen didn't think about what kind of court to touch the Gu family's light.
"Xiao Zhen, you have such good parents as role models, you should feel happy, and you must honor them well!"
"Grandpa Xue, I will definitely cherish it!"
This sentence is also Chu Zhen's heart.
In the previous life, Chu Zhen left his parents at a young age to study in Yangcheng, and settled in Yangcheng after graduation.
I can see my parents at most two or three times a year, and each time we get together, it doesn't take too long.
When Chu Zhen was young, every time he returned to the capital, because of a large number of classmates and friends, he ran out almost every day, and he didn't have much time to talk to his parents and brothers and sisters.
After reaching middle age, Chu Zhen began to pay more and more attention to family affection, and returned to the capital to visit and accompany his parents as much as possible.
"Well, Grandpa believes you'll do a good job in this area! Okay, go pick up the books, don't set limits on yourself, and don't pick and choose. ”
"Okay! Sit down, I can't wait! ”
At this time, the conversation between Xue Lao and Chu Zhen was closer to the conversation between the grandfather and grandson.
Xue Lao and Chu Zhen both enjoyed this feeling, especially Xue Lao, who had a son and a daughter, a granddaughter and a granddaughter.
His old friend Qin Shuai, also known as Qin Zheng's grandfather, has three sons, two daughters, and nine grandchildren, eight of whom are grandchildren.
The key is that all the men of the Qin family are very good, take Qin Zheng's father Qin Huasheng as an example, not to mention his appearance, he is only in his early forties and is going to Pengcheng, a sub-provincial city, to serve as the number one, and the gold content of this position is super high. This is also because the main strength of the Qin family is in the military, and Qin Huasheng has limited support from the family in the local and administrative fields.
Qin Huasheng's eldest brother and second brother are both developing in the military, and they have long been hung with general stars on their shoulders!
The best developed is Qin Shuai's eldest son Qin Huafei, that is, Qin Zheng's uncle.
With the gradual fading out of the Chinese stage, Qin Huafei is now gradually able to take the lead and slowly take over the position of the old man Qin in the military circles.
Qin Huafei had a third star on his shoulder not long ago, and it was no surprise that he would soon enter the highest decision-making level in the Huaxia military circles.
Qin Shuai has a successor, which makes the relevant people of the Qin family very excited, and the Zhang Chuang family is one of them.
Xue Lao is in a high position, upright, and does not like to form gangs, to a certain extent, he is a clear stream of lonely ministers.
Xue Lao did not let his children inherit his political resources, and Xue Lao's son, Wu Fangying's husband, inherited his father's academic talents, and studied under Pei Wenzhong, a famous archaeology professor at Peking University, and is now an associate professor in the Department of Archaeology of Peking University; Xue's daughter is a high school Chinese teacher who teaches and educates.
The children of the old snow have done well in their respective career fields, and their respective families are also very happy.
It is worth mentioning that Xue Lao's two granddaughters are also very good, and they are first-class in terms of appearance and personality.
Despite this, sometimes seeing the prosperity of his old friend Qin Shuai's family, Xue Lao's heart will be slightly sour, and even a little regret - his children and grandchildren are destined to be unable to inherit his mantle.
Looking at the heroic Chu Zhen in front of him, Xue Lao's heart moved, and a thought came out of control!
There was a sentence on Xue Lao's lips, but he hesitated and didn't say it-
"Xiao Zhen, don't call me Grandpa Xue in the future, just call Grandpa directly, okay?"
