At 5 o'clock in the morning, Li Lin was woken up by Liu Pandi, and put on his clothes in a daze and went to the bathroom to wash, and his brother-in-law Liu Minghui was woken up together.

Their grandfather, Liu Kaiguo, called Li Lin last night and ordered Liu Minghui to return to the capital immediately, and at the same time sent an invitation to Li Lin to meet his parents.

The business of the bookstore is developing steadily, and Li Lin is relieved to have Li Sen in charge, so he decided to go to the capital with Minghui to have a look, and if possible, he would order the courtyard house of the Liu family's neighbor in advance.

Liu Pandi dressed Li Lin carefully, shaved him and washed his hair, Liu Minghui ate a stomach of dog food and went back to the house depressed to pack his luggage.

Li Lin looked at himself in the mirror and was also a little depressed, wearing a black round-necked tunic, with a round portrait badge hanging on his left chest, and a hero pen in his left pocket pencil bag.

Liu Pandi was very satisfied, and said with a smile: "Grandpa must be surprised to see you, he will see himself when he was young." ”

Li Lin said: "I am very similar to him when he was young? Then you say that I am not your father's illegitimate son, and the two of us are actually half-brothers and sisters. ”

"You've read too many martial arts novels, haven't you?" Liu Pandi slapped Li Lin lightly and said, "I mean the temperament is very similar, your facial features and face are not similar at all, they are all Chinese faces." ”

After speaking, he gently hugged Li Lin's waist and said softly: "Brother Lin, grandpa has a bad temper, if he says something you don't like to hear, don't lose your temper, okay?" ”

Li Lin shook his head and said, "Don't be nervous, it's me who sees my parents and not you who see my parents, and he won't say unpleasant things to me." ”

When the two of them arrived at half past six, Liu Minghui knocked on the door with a dark face: "It's time to go, Fei Ge and Bi Kun are waiting downstairs." ”

When he went downstairs, Liu Minghui asked in a low voice: "You two really want me to have a little nephew next year?" ”

Li Lin smiled and said, "What are you nervous about?" ”

Liu Minghui rolled his eyes: "You are only 19 years old, and my sister is not yet 23, is it too early to have a child now?" ”

"You talk a lot of nonsense!" Li Lin said lightly: "I don't have the idea of having children for the time being, and I'll talk about it after I get married." ”

Liu Minghui sighed and said, "I hope you can get rid of my old old man when I go to the capital this time." ”

Walking downstairs, Bi Kun ran over to pick up the briefcase, lowered his head and whispered, "I'm sorry second brother, I betrayed your trust." ”

"Let's talk about it in the car." Li Lin opened the car door and sat in the back seat with Liu Minghui, cocked Erlang's legs and closed his eyes to rest.

The car started and drove out of the community, Chu Fei drove steadily, and Li Lin gradually fell asleep.

Bi Kun's heart was full of thoughts, and early this morning, Li Sen called him downstairs in the bookstore and asked him to hand over the school information in his hand and the school leader's address book.

Li Sen said that because his business ability and performance were too poor to be qualified for the job of a book salesman, he would be replaced by Fan Huimin, who had stronger business ability.

Bi Kun knew that this was what Li Lin meant, and felt that he was sorry for Li Lin's trust, and he had been depressed for a morning.

Half an hour later, Li Lin woke up, yawned and said, "Minghui, let me say a few words to Ah Kun." ”

Santana stopped on the side of the road, and Liu Minghui got out of the car and changed places with Bi Kun. When the car started again, Li Lin asked Bi Kun: "Do you have any ideas?" ”

Bi Kun said with a bitter face: "Blame myself for not being capable, Duan Lei sells 630 copies of Xianhan in a day, and I don't sell 30 copies in a month." ”

Li Lin asked again: "Do you have any thoughts in your heart?" For example, if you have been with me for so long, I don't talk about feelings and don't let you do jobs that can make more money. ”

"No, absolutely not!" Bi Kun flatly denied: "It's because I don't have the ability, I don't blame you or Duan Lei." ”

Liu Minghui interjected: "This society is originally survival of the fittest, and the second brother will arrange a job for you that is more suitable for you." ”

Bi Kun said: "Brother Minghui, I am already satisfied with a salary of 300 yuan. ”

Li Lin was satisfied with his attitude, the workplace was so cruel, if he resented Li Lin, he would not hesitate to purge him.

Liu Minghui smiled and said: "If I were you, I would be happy, and I would rather be a Sipin Beijing official than a local official." ”

Zhengcheng is 700 kilometers away from the capital, and now there is no road network in all directions, no car navigation system and smart phones, and it is all up to the driver's road sense and map to go out.

Chu Fei would stop to look at the map every time he walked a section, and he and Liu Minghui took turns driving, and they would find a hotel to rest at night.

It took three days to arrive in the capital, which happened to be New Year's Day in 1997.

Liu Minghui first took Li Lin to the People's Mall to shop, and he couldn't be rude when he came to the door for the first time.

The old man Liu Kaiguo likes to play chess, the future father-in-law Liu Lici likes to drink Tieguanyin, and the future mother-in-law Liu Rong likes alabaster.

Li Lin bought the most expensive one in the mall, came to the Liujia courtyard in the afternoon, and parked the car in the open space in front of the door.

Liu's mother Liu Rong and Liu Zhaodi were already outside the gate to greet them, and Li Lin stepped forward to salute: "Hello aunt, good eldest sister and brother-in-law." ”

Liu Rong saw that Li Lin was well-behaved and generous, with upright and handsome facial features, and felt very good at the first glance.

He took Li Lin's hand and said, "Good boy, come into the house and get warm, it's cold outside." ”

Liu Zhaodi and his wife went to pick up large and small bags of gifts, and Liu Minghui arranged for Chu Fei and Bi Kun to go to the guest room to rest.

In the living room of the courtyard, Liu Rong took Li Lin's hand and asked some questions about checking the household registration, such as whether the father and mother are in good health, and whether the eldest brother is engaged.

Li Lin replied patiently, feeling that her temper was very similar to that of her mother, and it was easy to chat with her.

Liu Zhaodi's questions were more gossipy, asking how Li Lin and Liu Pandi met, how their relationship developed, and so on.

Liu's brother-in-law Pan Qiang is silent, and the eldest sister said that he mainly studies power battery technology, which is the power battery pack in battery cars and new energy vehicles in the future.

After chatting for a while, there was no sense of rustiness, Liu Zhaodi said with a smile: "Xiaolin is more handsome than in the photo, he looks like Yang Kang in the Condor Shooting, no wonder Panpan likes you." ”

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere was instantly embarrassing, Liu Rong covered her mouth and coughed, and Brother-in-law Liu gently pulled the corner of his wife's clothes.

Liu Zhaodi, who understood it, couldn't help but be embarrassed, but Li Lin felt nothing. The heart said that if my daughter talks about a boyfriend in the future, I will also investigate his ancestors for eighteen generations.

Li Lin asked Pan Qiang with a smile: "Brother-in-law, it is said that in 83 the permanent bicycle factory developed a bicycle driven by a battery, is it true?" ”

Pan Qiang immediately said: "It is a 1983 permanent DX130 electric bicycle, but this electric car is seriously underpowered, the battery life is low, and it can only be driven on flat ground and cannot climb." ”

Li Lin asked: "Has the technical bottleneck of the power battery been broken?" ”

Pan Qiang shook his head: "The technical bottleneck of electric bicycles is not only the power battery, but also the drive motor, charger and controller, etc., and it is not a day or two to break through all the bottlenecks." ”

Li Lin asked: "Then you estimate that in a few years, these technical bottlenecks will be broken through, and electrician bicycles can mature on the street." ”

Pan Qiang was suddenly stunned, and said with a smile after a few seconds: "Xiaolin, do you want to invest in the electric bicycle industry?" ”
