Chapter 1057: The Grandfather's Invitation (Part 2)
Lin Ze felt uneasy and nervous. He stood in front of the mirror and changed into five suits in a row before smearing half a bottle of fermentation on his head. He thought uneasily: "The old man invited me to breakfast because he knew that I was with her granddaughter. Is something wrong? So, he came to settle accounts with me. Expressway"
"It's impossible. The old man is such a gentle, elegant and humorous old man. How could he be too harsh on a junior like me? Besides, we were basically in love that night and we didn't force her..."
"Perhaps, the old man just hasn't seen me for a long time, so he misses me very much."
Lin Ze fell into an inextricable self-hypnosis.
After getting out of the car, Lin Ze straightened his collar with a dignified attitude, patted the dust on his trouser legs, took a deep breath, and entered Xue's house in his best mental state.
The servants and housekeepers were so familiar with the man who was most at home in the Xue family besides Xue Gui that they treated him like half a master. They all greeted the future uncle. Some of the Xue family elders who were good at compliments even patted Lin Ze on the shoulder. , smiled knowingly at him with an ambiguous and playful look.
Lin Ze could only smile shyly in response to this, the hypocrisy was so hypocritical that even he felt sick to his stomach.
Entering the hall, Lin Ze immediately saw Xue Gui sitting in the living room eating meat buns and drinking Maotai. This grandson really planned to take the despised style of vulgarity to its peak.
Seeing Lin Ze coming, Xue Gui laughed loudly and stood up to greet him. His wife was very ladylike, following him with a smile on her face, and nodded to Lin Ze with a smile.
"Hello, sister-in-law." Lin Ze nodded politely.
"Haha, when did you get so polite?" Xue Gui punched him and scolded him with a smile.
Lin Ze curled his lips and asked, "Are you trying to fool me?"
"Nonsense, how could I joke about something like this?" Xue Gui grabbed Lin Ze and whispered, "Actually, I came back a few days ago. The old man called me personally."
"Oh." Lin Ze raised his eyebrows, "What's going on."
"The old man didn't say anything. He only told me that in the next six months, I won't go out if I can." Xue Gui lit a cigarette and said seriously, "If my aunt said this, I might have turned a deaf ear. After all, She usually controls me to death, but the old man, because my aunt is here, has always had a carefree attitude towards me and rarely cares about my private life, but this time the old man is serious."
"Something big happened." Lin Ze asked.
"The old man is waiting for you in the yard. You will know when you get there." Xue Gui said and took his wife upstairs.
When Lin Ze came to the old man's exclusive courtyard, he didn't see Xue Bailing, but he felt a little disappointed.
The tea the old man drank was made by Ning Gu himself, and the breakfast was also made by Ning Gu. Over the years, the old man's stomach can no longer tolerate food made by others, no matter how delicious it is.
There are several plates of exquisite side dishes on the stone table, and the main dish is steamed red oil dumplings. Just one look at them will make you want to eat.
Of course, the old man will not be as vulgar as his great-grandson, who drinks Maotai and eats steamed buns. Only a country bumpkin can do that kind of thing... "Good morning, old man." Lin Ze walked up to him with a pious attitude and greeted him affectionately.
Lin Ze would give enough respect to an old man like the old man who has lived for more than a hundred years, let alone the old man of the Xue family. Even if he is the most ordinary old man, Lin Ze will give him enough respect. Every old man in the family is like a treasure. Lin Ze feels that this old man has already It is not simply a treasure of the Xue family, but a treasure of Yanjing and even China.
How many big bosses who are now in important positions have received his favor, and how many great leaders were brought out by this old man.
"Here we come." The old man stood up to say hello without being polite. He just said with a smile, "Sit down."
"Hey." Lin Ze nodded and sat quietly on the stone bench opposite.
"Xiao Ning just made these, I don't know if they are to your liking." The old man said with a smile.
"I'm not picky about food, I can eat anything." Lin Ze picked up a small steamed bun and stuffed it into his mouth.
He got up early in the morning and worked hard, but he still hadn't touched a drop of rice. Lin Ze was really hungry.
"That's good." The old man nodded with a smile, took a sip of tea and narrowed his eyes to look at Lin Ze.
Seeing the old man's eyes like this, Lin Ze suddenly felt uneasy.
Don't you have something important to talk to yourself about?
Why do you look so eagerly at your grandson-in-law?
Lin Ze sat upright and patiently endured the old man's scrutiny.
Within three minutes, the old man suddenly smiled and said: "Don't be so cautious, your father is much more unrestrained than you."
"The old man has seen him." Lin Ze was slightly surprised.
It seems that this old bastard is quite popular.
"I've seen her before, and even had a meal." The old man said with a smile, "Your mother happened to be pregnant with you at the time."
Lin Ze couldn't help but sigh after hearing this.
I didn't expect that I had such a connection with the Xue family. No wonder I felt that the old man in front of me looked more and more familiar... "Speaking of which, you and Bai Ling had a playful baby kiss back then." The old man said loudly.
"Ah." Lin Ze almost fell off the chair.
"Your father took a liking to Bai Ling at a glance, so he made an indecent joke while you were still in your mother's belly," the old man said.
Lin Ze was slightly convinced and said awkwardly: "That person is so shameless and obscene."
"Haha, you are the first person to say this about your father." The old man twirled his beard and laughed heartily.
Lin Ze scratched his head and ate steamed buns to hide his embarrassment.
After eating several steamed buns, I couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Ning Gu, who was silent at the side: "Ning Gu, your craftsmanship is really impressive."
Ning Gu smiled and said nothing.
"Okay, after chatting, let's talk about something else." The old man said and took a sip of tea.
Coming.
Lin Ze raised his spirits secretly, sat upright and said, "Master, please tell me, I'll listen."
"After I leave, you have to take good care of Bai Ling for me. She is a stubborn child, but she is also a heart-warming child." The old man said without warning.
When Lin Ze heard this, his heart skipped a beat, and he stared at the energetic old man without knowing why, "Why do you say such things so politely?"
"At my age, it's not too much to take care of the funeral arrangements." The old man said with a smile.
Lin Ze was right.
The old man is right. After living a hundred years old, it is indeed reasonable to explain the affairs of his descendants. Fortunately, the Xue family will not expect the old man to die to divide the family wealth. Even if there is, fortunately not It will pose a threat to Xue Bailing.
In fact, looking at Yanjing, there are only a few people who can pose a threat to Aunt Xue, nicknamed Violet.
But Lin Ze was puzzled.
Han Zhenbei asked him to take care of Han Xiaoyi. At that time, Han Xiaoyi was young and not very sensible, so it was reasonable for him to reluctantly agree.
But does a woman like Xue Bailing, who completely suppresses herself, need to take care of herself?
The old man doesn't have much confidence in his granddaughter.
"Of course, I'm not asking you to take care of Bai Ling like you take care of Han Xiaoyi." The old man saw through Lin Ze's thoughts and didn't take it seriously. He smiled and said, "I just hope that when Bai Ling gets tired, she will have a shoulder to lean on."
Lin Ze felt that his face was so swollen.
No matter how capable Xue Bailing was, she wouldn't have to speak so bluntly.
After all, my brother Xiao Lin is an existence that is as lonely as a huge avalanche of national warriors. Isn’t it possible that I can’t help you at all?
But he was still curious about why the old man said these words to him. He didn't think that the old man's reason for explaining his funeral after he was a hundred years old was not an exaggeration.
After waiting for a long time, there was no answer from the old man. Instead, there was a sentence that I don't know if it was sincere or a joke.
