When Jiang Ping saw her son kneeling down, she could no longer hold back her tears. She stepped forward and helped Lin Zichen up: "Zi Chen, you're back. If you don't kneel down, we won't do that."
Lin Zichen smiled and shook his head: "Mom, you have worked hard, I should kneel down!"
After saying that, Lin Zichen immediately kowtowed. If it were once, he would just be a young boy with nothing to do, but now it is different. Not only does he have the inheritance of Tianzun, he has experienced too many things, and he also understands the way to be a human being and the way to be a son.
.
Huo Qing couldn't help but nodded heavily. Master naturally had his own ideas. Although he didn't use money to solve the family's difficulties, it must have happened for a reason.
Lin Zichen sat on the sofa and said, "Mom, hasn't my dad come back yet?"
Jiang Ping smiled: "Your dad is busy. He is now an editor in a magazine. He has many manuscripts to review and has to work overtime every night."
Lin Zichen sighed. Giving money to his parents now will definitely cause them to worry. Lin Jingyang and Jiang Ping are both old intellectuals. Naturally, they will not believe in pie-in-the-sky pie. So knowing that their son has so much money now, they will definitely be suspicious.
He did something he shouldn't have done.
As a son, Lin Zichen knew his parents well, so he didn't want to throw a wad of money on the table as soon as he entered the house like a nouveau riche.
Lin Mengran said: "By the way, Zichen, this is..."
Just as Huo Qing was about to speak, Lin Zichen hurriedly said: "Oh, my classmate Huo Qing, Huo Qing, this is my mother and my sister."
Huo Qing was stunned. How could the relationship between master and apprentice turn into classmates? But the master said that he could only go along with it. He said: "Oh, yes, aunt is good, sister is good."
Lin Zichen secretly laughed. In terms of age, Huo Qing was two or three years older than Lin Mengran. It was unfair to call him sister.
Jiang Ping stood up and said, "Okay, this kid looks really energetic. You guys sit down and I'll cook for you."
"Mom, let me help you." Lin Mengran stood up and followed her.
"No, you stay with Zichen. I'll be here soon. Your dad will be back soon. We'll have something hot to eat soon." After Jiang Ping finished speaking, she ran to the kitchen.
Lin Zichen looked around and felt very at ease. Although his home was small, it was kept very clean by his mother and sister. There was not even a hair on the ground, and there were no unnecessary items everywhere.
"Sister, you cleaned up so well." Lin Zichen said.
Lin Mengran smiled: "That's not true. Now that I don't go to work, if I don't help my mother with some housework, will it still be reasonable?"
"No longer going to work?" Lin Zichen said a little surprised. After all, the family's income is not high, and they still have to support themselves in school. My sister's income has always been one of the family's supports, so why don't you go to work?
Lin Mengran said: "Yes, Zichen, mom didn't tell you that I had a boyfriend?"
Lin Zichen thought about it, and it seemed that when he was on the phone with his mother, his mother mentioned it once, yes, that time before he was discharged from the hospital.
"Oh, I remembered it, but...what does it have to do with you not going to work?" Lin Zichen laughed out loud, "Is your brother-in-law raising you?"
Speaking of this, Lin Mengran's pretty face turned red: "He... is quite capable, young and promising. Anyway, he doesn't want me to be too tired, so he will also give me some pocket money every month."
Lin Zichen nodded. If this is the case, he should be happy. His sister has obviously found a reliable man. After all, in this era, there are fewer and fewer men who are willing to let women be full-time wives, and more of them can't even support themselves.
And he is not motivated either.
Huo Qing said: "Master...Lin Zichen, it seems that my sister is also capable. If she chooses a good boyfriend, at least the life of my uncle and aunt will be improved a lot."
Lin Zichen understood that Huo Qing was actually asking a rhetorical question. When he was at the door, Huo Qing had some opinions about himself, thinking that he was rich but made his parents poor, so now the same words were thrown to Lin Mengran.
The pocket money Lin Mengran mentioned should not be a small amount, but after all, her parents' family still seems to be in a tight situation, which doesn't make sense.
In fact, Lin Zichen also wanted to know, he said: "Yes, sister, didn't you give them a little subsidy?"
Speaking of this, Lin Mengran sighed and said helplessly: "Actually, I gave it to you, but you also know that our parents won't want it, and... dad doesn't agree..."
"Ah? Dad doesn't agree with you and your brother-in-law-to-be? Why?"
"Dad always thinks that our family has a low status and is not a good match for someone with money and power. After all, dad doesn't want to mention the Lin family's affairs in the past. He said that people should have backbone. No matter what kind of life they are, as long as they work hard, it will be fine." Lin Mengran said.
Huo Qing nodded slowly, so he understood. No wonder the master and Lin Mengran are richer, but their parents still dare to live in poverty. Speaking of which, the master's family is relatively loyal and upright.
Lin Zichen thought for a while: "There is a huge disparity in status? Isn't it? Sister, you are not in love with the son of a high-ranking official, are you? Haha, if that were the case, our family would be very prosperous!"
Huo Qing secretly laughed, which son of a high-ranking official can compare with his master? Turning his hands, he could see tens of millions or even hundreds of millions. I am afraid there are not many such people.
Lin Mengran smiled sweetly: "That's not true, but his home in Nanshui is really okay."
Seeing his sister's expression, Lin Zichen felt relieved. He could see that his sister had found happiness. In this case, he should advise his father. After all, this is not the old society anymore. It is best for parents to bless their children's happiness.
After chatting for a while, there was a knock on the door. Lin Mengran stood up quickly: "Dad is back, I'll open the door!"
Sure enough, Lin Jingyang walked in wearing an old-fashioned suit and gold-rimmed glasses. Lin Jingyang was less than fifty years old, but the hard work in recent years has made his temples gray. The only thing that has not changed is his handsome appearance and elegant expression.
temperament.
"Dad!" Lin Zichen stepped forward and called out immediately.
Lin Jingyang was stunned when he saw Lin Zichen. After all, his father had seen his son and hadn't seen him for half a year. His heart was shaking, but he still suppressed his excitement and nodded: "Oh, Zichen is back."
Lin Zichen also adapted to his father's attitude. He took the briefcase from his father's hand and said, "I just came back. Are you tired? My mother is cooking. We will start dinner soon."
"Okay, okay, are there guests at home?" Lin Jingyang looked at Huo Qing and said with a smile.
Huo Qing had already stood up. When he saw his master's father, he bowed respectfully: "Hello, uncle, I am Zichen's classmate. My name is Huo Qing."
"Oh, good. What a talented person. That's great. Are you coming to Nanshui to have fun this time?"
Huo Qing didn't know how to answer, so he looked at Lin Zichen, who said: "Dad, our school has a mission. We need to take pictures of the scenery in our hometown and then write an essay. Huo Qing's parents are abroad, so they came back with me.
It’s south water.”
Lin Jingyang showed a trace of disappointment on his face: "Ah? Then...are you leaving soon? Isn't this a holiday?"
Lin Zichen didn't want to stay with his parents, but after all, he still had a lot of things to do. He said: "Dad, the college entrance examination is coming soon, and I have to go back to school to review after finishing this collection, so..."
Lin Jingyang nodded: "Yes, yes, that's right. Students must put academics first and improve their academic performance to be serious!"
Although he said this, Lin Jingyang felt uncomfortable in his heart. It was rare to see his son. Hey, he would eventually have to fly when he grew up. When he went to college, he might only be able to see his son once every six months...
Soon, Jiang Ping prepared a table of meals. Since Lin Zichen did not say hello when he came back, she did not buy a lot of fish, but even so, the aroma of the dishes on the table still made Lin Zichen feel the warmth of home.
Jiang Ping was busy picking up food for Lin Zichen and Huo Qing. Lin Zichen said, "Mom, don't worry about it. I'll do it myself."
"Can you ignore it? You are my son, and the food at school is definitely not to your liking. You don't tell me when you come back, so mommy can buy the ingredients in advance to make your favorite braised chicken legs and cooked prawns."
Lin Zichen smiled knowingly: "Mom, the food at school is actually quite good, but you and my dad don't always save money. The older we get, the more we need to make up for it. I can eat anything when I'm young."
Lin Jingyang nodded: "My son has grown up. It makes my father happy to be able to say that."
"By the way, Dad, I have to say, I heard that my sister is in love, and you don't agree. Why?" Lin Zichen said.
Lin Jingyang couldn't help but glance at Lin Mengran. Lin Mengran hurriedly lowered his head to eat without saying a word. Lin Jingyang said: "What do you know? What are the conditions of our family? What are the conditions of the Wu family? This...isn't this a bit of a mess? Lin Mengran, let me tell you, I am determined.
disagree!"
Lin Mengran raised her head and said: "Dad! You are here again. Xuejun even bought you a drink, and he was also kind to me. Why don't you agree?"
Lin Jingyang said: "Huh, you are too young to understand, what is the identity of the young master of the Wu family? Will he be a person who lives a down-to-earth life? If you really get married, if something happens in the future, you have nothing to do. After all, the conditions
Not even close."
"Dad, you... hum, I won't eat." Lin Mengran got up and walked back to her room.
However, Lin Zichen fell into deep thought, young master of the Wu family?
"Dad, my sister's boyfriend is from the Nanshui Wu family?" Lin Zichen asked.
Jiang Ping sighed and said: "Yes, your father is like this. He is an old man. No matter what age he is, he just doesn't agree. I think it's okay for someone to learn from the military."
Lin Zichen looked at Huo Qing, who was also surprised. The Nanshui Wu family... they had just interacted with each other today. Haha, with such arrogant and bandit-like subordinates, the master would probably not be a polite person.
.
Lin Zichen took the opportunity to go to the toilet and dialed Lu Chenghao's number, and immediately asked him if he was familiar with the Nanshui Wu Family. Lu Chenghao's answer made him take a breath.
"Master Lin, although I am not very familiar with the Wu family, the young master of the Wu family, Wu Xuejun, often comes to Tianzhou."
"Oh? How is he?" This is the news that Lin Zichen wants. It has to be said that Lu Chenghao's pulse is still very broad.
"How is it? The second generation of rich people are all the same. He used to go to Tianlong Nightclub, but later he seemed to get tired of it and also played in our venue. Every time he came, he would take a few girls to the hotel. Haha, after all, he is young and has good health.
OK."
Lin Zichen's face turned gloomy: "I know, just hang up. I'll contact you if anything happens!"
It seems that this time, my father is right. Let’s not talk about the disparity in the family. At least this rich second generation who enjoys and drinks all day long must be unreliable!
