It's raining on New Year's Day, and there's a little snow falling again.
On the way from Renshun to Beijing, Teacher Jin and Teacher Zeng talked less.
For a formal visit, parents only need to go, and Teacher Xiaojin does not need to accompany them. Fourth Master looked at the car, and there were two cautious people sitting behind it. It was still early for the trip to the capital, so the two of them started to get nervous.
"It's not just today that I'm nervous. The closer the day of the visit is, the more nervous I am." Teacher Zeng changed his sitting posture and raised his head to talk to his son, "...What should I say to others when I go? I told him
Your dad didn't sleep well last night, and we are sitting together with nothing to say, what should we do?" It will feel very embarrassing, and it will not leave a good impression on others, and it will disrupt a good marriage.
Look! Just this little thing has become a burden.
The Fourth Master just laughed, "Didn't I tell you that there is Tongtong? She knows how to present the topic, so you don't have to think about it. She provides the topic and you can say whatever you want."
She looked even more clumsy. But what else could she do? Teacher Zeng sighed and confirmed again: "There is really no need to see her mother?"
No! There is no need for Fourth Master to explain the detailed matters to his family so carefully, as long as he knows that there will be no contact.
"Then... do you want to check the gift again?"
Teacher Jin quickly said, "No need! I checked it myself."
Teacher Zeng felt: “I still feel that I am not prepared enough…”
The Fourth Master was just talking when Tongtong's call came. The Fourth Master picked it up and Tongtong's voice came, "Where are you? How long will it take?"
"Forty minutes!"
Forty minutes? Tongtong said, "Go to the courtyard over there outside the Third Ring Road..."
OK! Got it. This is a temporary change of location.
Yes! Lin Shuhan asked to change the place. It was not appropriate to entertain guests in the mountains this time, so he could only bring his grandparents. But next, he should go to the house where the family lived to entertain guests. He also felt that it was Lin Fang's house.
Ran's place. He and Tongtong didn't live there very much. He didn't feel comfortable entertaining guests there. So what should he do? He bought a small house by himself, which was fine when he lived at home, but
If it's a shabby place to entertain guests, forget it. The key is that the place is small and can't be crowded.
Then go to the villa.
The one with a semi-basement must have three floors and a courtyard, and it has been decorated. It is no problem to stay there for half a day to entertain guests. On the third day of the Lunar New Year, when entertaining guests, he turned on the floor heating in the house on the first night of the Lunar New Year.
.The room is very warm, and all the furniture was bought. Everything is new!
When he mentioned this, no one in the family objected. This is a marriage of a girl to show off her family wealth! Did you see it? There is a house like this next door, which belongs to Tongtong. It also means that the man’s parents are aware of it to a certain extent.
.
Everyone likes Xiao Jin! We can put aside the professional stuff, that is to say, the person himself, the way he treats people and treats, the elders all like him. But no matter how good a person is, the daughter who marries a girl has to get along with her husband's family!
It's not enough for the young man to know what he's doing, but the man's elders must also know what's going on, so that life can go smoothly.
When Lin Shuhan said this, the Lin family felt very good.
Lin Fanran helped pack a box of fruits, nuts and other things for guests at home, and asked Lin Shuhan: "Brother, is there a fruit plate in the house and are there any new tea sets?"
I really didn’t pay attention to the fruit plate, and the tea set...the employer issued a set, which was in the trunk of the car.
"Then you go first, I'll buy some fruit plates and then go over." It was early in the morning, after breakfast, we all went over.
The guests didn't come, but they were all wandering around here. It can be said that Lin Youqu spent a lot of money on the decoration this time. How much money can such a large crystal chandelier cost? Since the decoration was completed, Tongtong has not been here. Only
Lin Shuhan helped me come over to take a look. As soon as I came in suddenly, it felt really different.
Lu Gaogong looked at it inside and out, "This house is early, with large floor-to-floor spacing and high ceilings. It is extremely bright inside and out. It is well designed, and the lighting in the semi-basement is not inferior to that of ordinary high-rise housing."
"
"The design designed by Siye is pretty good, right?" Lin Shuhan laughed, "Like Tongtong, he chooses to volunteer as he pleases. There is no ambiguity between what he likes and what he is good at."
Lin Xiyuan laughed, "That's why I say such people are pure! If you like it, just learn it. It's rare to find such a down-to-earth young man nowadays."
Lin Youqu pointed to the yard in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass window, "You can't build it casually, or else build a pavilion between two houses. This would be great."
"If you can build a greenhouse, it will be good to grow vegetables in it." Lin Shuhan said, "The property management will not allow the fence wall between the two houses to be demolished. I think it is an eyesore. I will replace it with a wooden fence, and the lower legs will be raised and lowered.
You can just walk over there, so it’s easy to come and go.”
Yeah! Appropriate.
Tongtong was in the kitchen, peeling the fruit and making a fruit plate. That's it.
Lin Fanran handed over apples and bananas, "Don't you want to put these two?"
Tongtong taught her, "It doesn't matter if you use these when you eat at home. But if it's on a plate and the guests won't necessarily eat it for a while, it's best not to choose them. As soon as these things are peeled and cut, they will be oxidized and change color.
Dark brown, not bright in color.”
Oh oh oh! I really don’t know about this. She easily pulled off the banana peel, gnawed on the banana, and asked, "My brother-in-law's parents teach in Renshun, don't you want to be transferred to the city?"
"They are not people who like to bother! Sooner or later, they will have to expand to the city. What are you doing with that one?" After saying that, Tongtong asked, "Who do you still have contact with?"
Lin Fanran shook his head and his mood became depressed, "No! He... originally planned to come back, but then he changed his mind. Maybe the treatment there is better..."
Tongtong said, "They are thinking of inviting dad... and then his treatment is better. Is it possible that it is just because he is a student of his father and understands some of his ideas?"
Lin Fanran was holding a banana and was eating it, but suddenly she stopped moving while holding the banana in her mouth. After a while, she said "hmm", "It's possible." In an instant, her interest waned and she whispered.
One sentence, "When I was in high school, he had already won various awards in college physics competitions... Dad said he was very talented, and I admired him."
"You're a kid! When you were a kid, your views were always one-dimensional..." Tongtong laughed, "There was a big difference between me in high school and who I was later. In the same way, your views in high school will also gradually change, right?
?" Don't really go abroad! As long as she goes abroad, she may really affect many people. Not necessarily including Lin Shuhan.
Lin Fanran said 'hmm' and continued to chew.
Tongtong then said, "A person has many facets. Sometimes at first glance, he looks very glamorous... but is this really the case?"
Of course not! Just like his own mother, just like Peng Weikuan.
"So, it is said that you will gain wisdom from every loss, and you will never know what you will gain from the loss. Especially if it involves a lifetime event. Meeting a pure and good person who is only for you is better than meeting a good person who is only for you.
People who plan carefully are more lucky. In this life, people often have the same amount of gains and losses. If you lose it, you will get it again in another form." Tongtong laid out the fruit plate and handed it to her, "Misfortune and fortune always depend on each other! I think you
Your good luck should appear in another form..."
Lin Fanran took the fruit plate and raised her eyes to look at her second sister. Her eyes were clear and translucent, revealing the utmost sincerity. Her eyes suddenly turned red and her throat started to feel stiff, "I understand.
!" She carried the plate and walked out, "Sister, go see if anyone is here..."
Okay! Tongtong took off her apron, came out, grabbed her coat, said hello to her family and went out. Lin Fanran's current mentality is actually a state of mind that is torn between the two sides. She wants to go abroad. The less she misses in China,
The more she wants to go abroad, the more she wants to catch the warmth in her eyes.
However, the impact of her going abroad is really bad! Especially when she is engaged in related scientific research work, the impact is even worse.
In fact, the impact is secondary. The key is, will it cause unknown losses?
This is an unknown quantity.
When it comes to handling this matter, Lin Youqu is still the same. The thread in his mind seems to have always been straight. Even Lin Xiyuan and Lu Gaogong have never thought about encountering such a problem.
If so, a child can easily go to extremes. What they think is the involvement of the family is far less important in the psychology of an immature child.
This is very troublesome.
At this time, why not hold her back?
Holding her: firstly, it can reduce unknown losses, which are not even at the family level, but at the national level; secondly, it can avoid risks, especially the risk that she will affect Lin Shuhan's future; thirdly, it can avoid the risk that she will affect Lin Shuhan's future;
Third, if you are closer to the Lin family, you are further away from Peng Hui. This matter cannot be completed without tearing her heart into pieces.
So, when Lin Fanran is at a crossroads, it is much better to hold her back than to let her develop.
Standing at the gate of the community, within five minutes, the car arrived. Fourth Master slowly stopped the car. Regardless of the temperature outside, when he saw her and her eyes, his heart felt like it was soaking in soup.
In the bath.
Teacher Zeng felt that when his son talked to a girl, his voice could be lowered by two degrees and the temperature could be raised by eight degrees. It was that kind of light, soft, soft and warm voice.
As soon as they sat down, he first reached out to touch their hands, and then drove, "Run out and put on a woolen coat? Don't you even look at the day?"
Actually, it's not cold! Tongtong said, and greeted the two people behind him, "It's still snowing. I thought if the snow is heavy, I'll change the day. He'll have to worry about driving here." Teacher Zeng: "...
Actually, I really don’t have the time to worry about it.” It’s very inappropriate! But I’m really too nervous.
Teacher Jin patted Teacher Zeng gently: How do you speak?
Tongtong smiled and said, "It's okay. My grandparents worked at the grassroots level in the early years. Especially my grandma, who ate and lived with the workers on the construction site..." People who came from that era really didn't have that much airs.
Lin Youqu, on the other hand, has been in that environment and has been in contact with people of similar status. It may be a bit difficult to communicate with ordinary people.
She said this before saying, "If my dad doesn't speak, it's not my dad's fault. It's because he has a hard time integrating into any topic except their topic." So, don't be nervous even if you don't have anything to say.
, he is not targeting anyone, he is simply wrong.
This was particularly evident when I visited with him during the Chinese New Year. Even with old friends, he could talk freely about things he was interested in. But when it came to other things, he just listened and didn't talk much.
In fact, other people don't need to be nervous when in contact with him. He may be more nervous than others...
