Chapter 17 The Shen Family in Shanghai

() Found the way home!

The next day, Chen Fang went to the mall to buy some gifts, and sent the gifts prepared for his uncle and two cousins ​​to Shanghai through Shunfeng Express. The domestic high-speed rail did not bring strong wine. After hearing this regulation, Chen Fang was speechless. Fortunately, the express delivery industry is now developed, and it was basically invented from Yanjing to Shanghai. These bottles of wine are probably even earlier than Chen Fang.

Originally, Chen Fang was going to take a plane to Shanghai, but Chen Hui advised him to take the high-speed rail. After the Beijing-Shanghai High-speed Railway was opened, it took only more than four hours to go from Yanjing to Shanghai. However, when taking a plane, you have to go to the airport in advance, then check in, change the boarding pass and other trivial matters, the time is almost the same.

I took the earliest bus and arrived in Shanghai at around 10 a.m. I walked out of the high-speed rail station with my luggage. From a distance, I saw someone holding a sign picking him up.

"Are you Chen Feifan?" Chen Fang asked uncertainly, and the mark of that year could be vaguely seen from the face of the man who picked up the car.

"You are Mr. Chen? I am Chen Feifan, responsible for driving for Mr. Chen." After that, he helped take Chen Fang's luggage and lead the way. Chen Feifan is Grandma Yang's grandson. After graduating from high school, he went to the army to train for several years. Now Hon Hai Group is a driver and bodyguard for Chen Fang's cousin Chen Yao.

Shen Jingxing got into the car driven by Chen Feifan in the envious eyes of other passengers of the high-speed rail. A Maybach Zeppelin with a distinct silver waist strip. Today, on Monday, Hon Hai Group had a regular meeting. It was probably the car arranged by his uncle to ask Chen Feifan to pick him up. Otherwise, with his cousin's low-key personality, he would not have chosen this car.

"Go to Yiyuan first, I'll go see my grandmother first." Chen Fang said to Chen Feifan.

Yiyuan covers an area of ​​about ten acres between Songhu District and Wenxing District. It used to be the ancestral home that the Shen family in Songhu has been passed down for hundreds of years. During the ten years of turmoil, it was acquired by the government as state-owned. After the reform and opening up, it was bought back by my uncle and renamed the original Songqu Garden to Yiyuan to commemorate my grandfather Shen Zhongyi who died during the turbulent period.

Yi Garden is divided into three parts, with different realms. The east is a residence, the middle is the main garden, and the west is the inner garden, and the main garden is clear and changeable. There are gardens in the garden and scenery outside the scenery, which are exquisite and deep. Although there are many buildings, there are no congestion, and although the mountains and ponds are small, they are not cramped.

When Chen Fang arrived at the inner courtyard of Yiyuan, his grandmother and his aunt were waiting for him. Grandma is 82 years old this year. After a few years, she has not seen her grandmother obviously has grown much older. She walks tremblingly. She does not use crutches, and her back is straight with her aunt's support. The wind and frost of time has made her head full of silver hair, but they are all neatly tied behind her head. Wrinkles climb up the corners of her mouth, eyes, and forehead. In my memory, my grandmother's kind and gentle eyes are always slightly narrowed, looking at you with a smile, but now she is full of tears.

沉放赶紧走向前去,搀扶住老人:“外婆,我回来了.”

"I'm back, it's good if I'm back. If I don't come back, I'm afraid I won't see my good grandson again." Grandma stroked Chen Fang's head with tears in her eyes. Chen Fang himself is a restrained person and doesn't like to reveal his feelings very much. However, the moment the old man's hand touched, he could no longer suppress the negative emotions brought to him by the loneliness and loss for several years. He hugged the old woman tightly with his hands, buried his head on the old man's shoulder and cried bitterly.

"Child, stop crying, and don't make the old lady sad. The old lady is old and crying too much is not good for her eyes." The eldest aunt Tian Li looked at her grandparents and grandchildren and cried bitterly, and she was also very sad, but the elderly should not be very sad and happy at this age, so she had to persuade her.

Chen Fang wiped the tears and calmed down. He greeted his aunt, and then helped her grandmother into the living room. Aunt Tian Li is a typical Jiangnan woman. Although you are nearly sixty years old, your behavior can still show the gracefulness of a woman in the water town.

Entering the living room, Chen Fang told his grandmother about his experiences over the years, and said some fun things to make the old lady happy.

"Yezi, you kid is finally willing to come back." The owner of the voice had a bad smile, and even his thick eyebrows seemed to have a smile. His handsome and prominent facial features, perfect face shape, especially the dazzling diamond earrings flashing on his left ear, which made him feel a little more feminine and unruly. Chen Lei's appearance was not as majestic as his uncle, but was a little delicate like his aunt. When his grandmother said that he had set the wrong mold with his cousin.

Chen Lei rushed back before lunch. He knew Chen Fang was coming in the morning, so he arranged all the work in the morning and then came back to take Chen Fang out for a walk in the afternoon.

The old lady started to prepare in the morning. Chen Fang was particularly moved when she looked at the table of dishes that she loved. She was very happy to eat. Although the old lady kept cooking dishes, the bowl in front of her was always full, Chen Fang still forced herself to finish it all in Shen Lei's joking smile.

After lunch, Chen Fang stroked his stomach with his hands, lay on the sofa, and said to Chen Lei: "I'm so full today. It seems that I'm eating so much for the first time in so many years."

"Haha, grandma hasn't helped me cook for so many years. It seems that in the old lady's mind, I am still not as high as you." Chen Lei handed him the tea he made and wanted to laugh as he looked like he was slumped on the sofa.

"Get up and have a walk to eat. I'll take you out for a walk in the afternoon. After you meet my dad and brother tonight, you'll follow me in the next few days." Chen Lei arranged.

"Brother Lei, I want to go and see my mother first." Chen Fang said seriously as he looked at Chen Lei.

Chen Lei thought for a while: "My sister-in-law should be in the club in District XH. I'll drive you there."

After Shen Qingyi returned to Shanghai, she took more than two years of rest before slowly getting out of the shadow of the failed marriage. Then, with the encouragement of her elder brother, she opened a high-end private health club, mainly for business ladies, and implemented a membership system, not receiving scattered customers. It can be said that the elder brother found a career for herself, not seeking money, but wanted to pass the time.

Shen Qingyi's health club is located in the commercial area of ​​a high-end community developed by Hon Hai Group in XH District. It is an independent four-story building with an area of ​​no less than 2,000 square meters. It used to be the sales office of the community. After the community house was sold out, the building was renovated to be a club.

The name of the club is just one word "Qing", and the huge artistic character design logo occupies a whole exterior wall of the club.

Chen Lei led the way in front, ignoring the notice of "Men's Stop" on the glass door, and went straight to the welcome bar.

"Mr. Chen is here. Hello, welcome." It seems that Chen Lei has been here a lot, and the two welcome ladies at the front desk know him.

"My sister-in-law is here? Is she busy now?" Chen Lei asked.

"The chairman is in the fourth floor office. There is no customer appointment today. Do you need me to notify her for you?"

"No, let's go up by ourselves." Chen Lei said to the front desk, and then took Chen Fang into the special elevator next to him.
