The news that Lin Yi started his own business had a big impact on Lin's parents, especially Ms. Yu Xiujuan. They were still talking about it during dinner.
Not to mention that she suddenly had some strange ideas while washing the dishes. Before going to bed at night, Lin Guoqing knocked on Lin Yi's door again.
He actually had some questions, but he didn't ask them in front of Yu Xiujuan.
"Lin Yi, I didn't ask you during the day, how are you and that classmate Xiao Gu doing?"
Lin Yi guessed that he had something to say: "It's good. Her mother sent it back to me from the airport today. Normally, she is too far away and we are both very busy, so it is not easy to meet.
"
As for long-distance relationships, they had long anticipated these difficulties, and Lin Guoqing also knew about them.
"You said before that she was mainly a trainee at the Chengdu Conservatory of Music, right? How is she doing there now?"
"Before the end of the year, their company just held a preliminary audition for a girl group, and she has successfully passed it. If nothing else happens, she may officially debut next summer."
He did not tell his parents about Gu Caiwei's unofficial debut, because the agreement had a confidentiality clause, and theoretically Lin Yi should not know about it.
Lin Guoqing's understanding of this matter is: "In other words, starting from next summer, she will become a female star, right?"
In fact, there is still a little difference, but there is no need to explain more. Lin Yi affirmed: "It's almost the same."
It is already the end of the year, actually only half a year has passed.
The two children now spend less time together and more time apart. When the girl becomes a female star, their worlds will be even more different.
Lin Guoqing could imagine that there would definitely be more difficulties between the two of them in the future, and he was really worried about their future.
However, he did not intend to get involved in emotional matters, but asked directly: "Lin Yi, is it because of her that you are so anxious to start a business?"
Father Lin's idea was the same as Ms. Gu Changge's first reaction. Lin Yi clarified: "Not entirely, mainly because I also want to do something myself, and Gu Caiwei also supports me."
"Dad, I know what you're worried about, but I won't try to show off my strength, I won't make a fool of myself, and I won't do anything illegal or disciplined. Don't worry."
"As long as you have an idea."
His son has indeed matured a lot. Lin Guoqing has let go of his worries a little, but he still has to give one more warning, "You said before that you are the most skilled among the three of you. You are just a freshman in college. When did you get it?"
This question is easy to explain.
"I studied by myself during the summer vacation. Now you should believe that I was really not playing with the computer at that time, right?"
Lin Guoqing obviously knew nothing about computer technology, so he agreed with this statement, feeling that no matter what the outcome was, he would at least become more motivated after falling in love.
"Lin Yi, I'm not doubting your relationship, but it's definitely not easy to be with a girl like this."
"I don't object to you starting a business now, and I'm very proud of you for being able to achieve results. However, there are profits and losses in starting a business, and you still can't fall behind on your schoolwork."
"No matter what, you are still a college student now. Studying should be the first priority. Only the knowledge you have learned cannot be thrown away."
"And you can understand things through self-study, which means you have talent. Don't waste it. The more you learn, the further you will go in the future..."
Lin Guoqing is a very traditional and old-school middle-aged man, and what he imparts may not be a wise saying, but Lin Yi still agrees to it one by one very seriously.
…
During the Chinese New Year this year, there were still three families, but Ms. Xiujuan unexpectedly began to count (xuan) and (yao) her sons.
"Oh, our Lin Yi is really annoying. He spends money carelessly at such a young age. He even brought two cashmere scarves to his father and me when he came back from the holidays."
Lin Yi chuckled, thinking that her aunt Lin Guofang showed off when her cousin Cheng Zihui bought a car two years ago. Ms. Yu Xiujuan is following her example.
No matter how harmonious the sister-in-law is, there will always be some secret comparison between them.
Lin Guofang felt something was wrong as soon as he heard the smell and did not answer the question.
Uncle Lin Guofeng has always been more upright, so he followed up and said: "Xiaojie, you must know that it is not easy for parents to make money, and it is the same for you, sister-in-law. Why do you give him so much money when you have nothing to do? Look at Xiaoqian, we give it once a week
of."
My cousin Lin Xiaoqian, who was lying silently, glanced at Lin Yi resentfully. After she entered high school, she was under increasing academic pressure, and this part of the family had to be said to be caused by Lin Yi.
Cheng Zihui's job is to deal with people, so he immediately understood what his aunt meant, but he still responded:
"Cashmere, isn't it cheap?"
This sentence was just right, and Ms. Yu Xiujuan could continue to play: "Who says it's not the case! But speaking of it, he didn't ask us for money. When he came back a few days ago, he said he started a business with his classmates."
"Starting a business?"
Cheng Zihui was very surprised now. This little cousin has only been able to study well since he was a child. In terms of life, he is not as good as himself. Now he started a business just after he entered college?
Although Lin Yi felt that it was his own family and nothing to brag about, he had to cooperate with Ms. Yu Xiujuan's performance, so he simply said that he had partnered with others to build a food delivery website.
Cheng Zihui was very interested in this topic and asked a lot of questions. Lin Yi was no longer as unreserved as he was with his parents and told him what he could.
"A key university is really good. I can meet such amazing classmates and senior sisters. It seems that I should study more when I was young."
Cheng Zihui's tone was a little envious. Lin Yi had just spoken vaguely. He thought it was a sophomore sister who was leading her cousin to start a business. As his roommate, Lin Yi was lucky enough to be brought along.
There is no need for Lin Yi to explain this misunderstanding. In short, everyone will gradually adapt to it in the future.
Lin Guofeng understood now and also praised him, but he thought that the situation would turn around and he would come to my house next year. After returning, he would have to force his daughter to study hard.
At this time, Lin Xiaoqian didn't know that she had been shot again.
As the head of the family, Lin Guoqing looked at Ms. Yu Xiujuan and was almost satisfied, so he came out and interrupted: "Okay, okay, if you praise Lin Yi any more, you will be proud."
"Of course it's not easy to achieve something when you're young, but don't take it too seriously. What's more difficult is to keep persisting and wait twenty or thirty years to see how far you can go."
He ended this little episode of "showing off his son" with a great lesson. Of course, Lin Yi nodded and accepted the lesson.
But he thought to himself, this is indeed just the beginning. With his own knowledge that is ten years ahead, your good days are still to come.
