Shen Congwen is a rising star in the political circles of Jiangnan Province. He is now the director of the Jiangnan Provincial Police Department, a deputy provincial-level cadre, and one of the top five power centers in the entire Jiangnan Province.
The Shen family has been passed down for hundreds of years. When it comes to Mr. Shen’s generation, Mr. Shen has firmly grasped the power of the family in his hands. This is not because Mr. Shen is utilitarian, but because in Mr. Shen’s generation, among the family brothers, The Shen family almost fell apart due to overt and covert fighting.
Therefore, Mr. Shen's way of raising his three sons is to try to have only one of them control the family business. The other two sons are engaged in politics or doing other things, and do not get involved in the family business.
Shen Congwen joined the army in his early years. According to Mr. Shen's original idea, he wanted his eldest son, who was mature, stable and capable, to control his family's fortune. However, he did not expect that Shen Congwen's mind was not on the family business, but on the family business. He joined the officialdom.
It can be said that Shen Congwen has been singing all the way in the officialdom. He has made many political achievements over the years and has been promoted very quickly. He is just fifty-five years old this year. When the next leadership team changes, it is very likely that he will take another step forward.
Shen Congwen looked at Lin Kun with a smile on his face but a slight frown on his brows. He had heard about his nephew, whom he had never met before, and knew that Lin Kun was the ace special forces soldier of the Mobei Military Region. But when they met, with his experienced eyes, he didn't feel the atmosphere of a soldier at all, but the atmosphere of the martial arts was very strong.
Shen Congwen frowned slightly, and he couldn't help but conclude in his heart that his nephew, whom he met for the first time, might have been eroded by the social world after leaving the army, and he couldn't help but feel a little regretful in his heart.
However, seeing that the group of people brought by Lin Kun were not ordinary Jianghu people, Shen Congwen felt a little comfort in his heart. Although he worked in the police station, his mind was not traditional and rigid. Today is a society ruled by law. Not every boss in China's arena is a bad guy. Since Lin Kun can control so many big guys in the arena, it means that his status in the arena is definitely not low.
What's more, he has also heard that Lin Kun is already the number one person in the underground world in the three eastern provinces. Looking at the whole of China, the folk customs in the north are strong and fierce. Being able to become the king in a place with strong folk customs is absolutely extraordinary. .
"Hello, I'm Shen Congwen." Shen Congwen smiled at Lin Kun.
"Hello, uncle!" Lin Kun replied politely.
Shen Congwen said with a smile: "When we first met, my uncle didn't prepare any gifts for you. Your aunt prepared a red envelope for you. Don't think it's too thin."
As he said that, a beautiful woman next to Shen Congwen stood up. This beautiful woman's name was Xu Ping. She was Shen Congwen's married wife. Although her appearance was a bit ordinary, she had a strong aura of a noble lady. .
Xu Ping handed a thick red envelope to Lin Kun and said with a smile: "Lin Kun, take it."
Lin Kun was not polite and immediately took it with both hands and said with a smile: "Thank you, auntie!"
Xu Ping smiled and said: "You're welcome, we are all a family, and we will come over to play at home when we have time."
Lin Kun smiled and said: "Definitely."
Mrs. Shen smiled at the side and said: "Xiao Kun, your aunt's cooking skills are very good. If you have the chance to try your aunt's cooking, you will eat it."
Xu Ping said with a smile: "Mom, please don't praise me. No matter how delicious my food is, can it be as delicious as the first-class chef in Jiangnan Chunli?"
Mrs. Shen smiled and said, "Who said it? In my heart, the eldest daughter-in-law's food is the most delicious."
Mrs. Shen looked at Xu Ping, her face was full of love, and she did not hide it in her words, which showed that she was 100% satisfied with her eldest daughter-in-law.
Mr. Shen glanced at the empty seats next to Shen Congwen and Xu Ping and asked, "Why hasn't Jia Bin come yet?"
Both Shen Congwen and Xu Ping looked a little unhappy. The old man had made it known that at today's family dinner, all immediate family members, whether they are elders or juniors, must attend and cannot be late.
The old man rarely issues such strict orders anymore, which shows that he attaches great importance to Lin Kun, his grandson. As uncles and aunts, Shen Congwen and Xu Ping, as well as the other two uncles and aunts, have some objections in their hearts. , although Lin Kun is the long-lost son of his late sister and their nephew, the old man's fight is a bit too big.
The Shen family is different from ordinary common people's families. Even in ordinary common people's families, everyone in the family usually has their own things to be busy with. Shen Jiabin is the only son of Shen Congwen and Xu Ping. He is currently the most outstanding member of the younger generation in the family. I serve as the president of a listed company, and the company's profits are increasing year after year.
Originally, among the younger generation, Shen Jiabin was very popular with Mr. Shen and would be trained to be the heir of the family in the future. However, at this time, the expression on the old man's face was serious with a hint of reproach, which made Shen Congwen and Xu Ping couple I feel that the old man is too partial to Lin Kun, his grandson.
Mr. Shen is the absolute authority in the Shen family. Even if he has complaints in his heart, as a son and daughter-in-law, he never dares to refute. Xu Ping immediately smiled and said: "Dad, Jiabin Company has something to do temporarily, and an emergency meeting is being held. I'll be right back after driving."
Mr. Shen snorted unhappily, "What big thing can happen in the company? Even if it's a big thing, I shouldn't delay meeting his cousin!"
As he said that, the old man looked at his eldest son, "Congwen, didn't I tell you to tell Jia Bin that you can't be late no matter what? Are you turning a deaf ear to what I said as an old man?"
Shen Congwen held a high position in the officialdom outside and was respected by others, but in front of his old father, he looked cautious and said: "Dad, don't be angry, I didn't convey this clearly. I'd like to review this with you. I'll call Jia Bin right now and ask him to put down what he's doing and come over immediately no matter what meeting he's in."
Mr. Shen then nodded and said: "One is an ordinary listed company, and the other is a cousin. Our Shen family is not short of a listed company, but for Jiabin, Lin Kun, his cousin, is better than what he is doing now." Work is much more meaningful, it’s family love!”
Xu Ping secretly muttered in her heart that this old man was too partial, but she kept saying yes with a smile on her face.
Old Mrs. Shen poked Mr. Shen with her arm and said, "Old guy, it's almost enough. The grandson is a relative, and the grandson is also a relative. You have good intentions and want the children to meet each other as soon as possible, but you are so stubborn, what if Is it worth it to make these two cousins who haven't met each other feel a little unhappy?"
"I……"
Mr. Shen had a bad temper, but in front of his boss, he had a good temper. Everything in the world was like a disaster. The old man immediately smiled and said: "Yes, old lady, you are right."
Mrs. Shen looked at Shen Congwen and Xu Ping and said, "Congwen, it's time to call Jiabin. It's the first time for cousins to meet. Even big things shouldn't be delayed. Let's Shen A family is as good as a listed company, and brothers are more important than the company."
Shen Congwen and Xu Ping had just thought that their mother was more sensible, but when they heard what Mrs. Shen said, wasn't it the same as what their old man said just now? She was still favoring their grandson.
Shen Congwen and Xu Ping looked at each other with wry smiles on their faces, and they had to agree, "I know, Mom..."
