Chapter 587 Don’t worry about the lack of widows but the unevenness(1/3)
Du Feng's late marriage was surprising. Unexpectedly, the playboy, like him, would one day become a "sacrilege" of arranged marriages.
Of course, it seems that he is full of fearlessness and fearlessness of sacrifice.
Lin Chaoyang looked at him and understood the reason why he had passed by so many times over the years, and he could not get married with a girlfriend or a girlfriend.
It turns out that you are so good at this boy. When you are young, you really don’t know what you want.
He looked into the yard and found that Chen Lan was not stunning. Even with short hair, she looked pretty.
The most important thing is to have a healthy, sunny and energetic temperament, which can easily make people feel good.
"Brother-in-law, what are you looking at?"
Lin Chaoyang sarcastically said, "Oh, I can't see you anymore? You're a bit too much."
Du Feng felt a little embarrassed and changed the topic, "You are so boring, I'll pick you up kindly."
"Okay, let's not talk about this." Lin Chaoyang finally let Du Feng go, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Recalling Du Feng's performance when he was with his girlfriend in the past, Lin Chaoyang came to a conclusion that it was really different if he didn't care.
He asked Du Feng to wait for a while, and entered the east house of the main house, searched in the safe, and then took out a Maitreya Pendant.
"The first time I met my sister-in-law who has not yet passed the door, I will give her a gift, you can give it to her."
The jade pendant in his hand was green and deep, as if all the greenness of the entire forest was condensed into it.
Under the light, it is bright and lively, exudes a delicate and soft luster, exuding a noble and elegant temperament. You can tell at a glance that it is absolutely extraordinary.
Du Feng was not polite, and took the pendant with a smile on his face. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it, "Brother-in-law is generous, I knew that Chen Lan was here today, so I definitely couldn't leave empty-handed."
"The fare for you couple to pick up someone is really expensive!" Lin Chaoyang joked.
After saying that, Du Feng immediately ran outside with the pendant excitedly to ask Chen Lan for credit.
Lin Chaoyang saw the two of them say a few words, and Chen Lan pulled the reluctant Du Feng into the house again.
"Brother-in-law, thank you for your kindness, but this gift is too expensive and I can't accept it."
It was almost the same as Lin Chaoyang thought. He said with a smile on his face: "It's all a family, what's the price or not? It's not all for Huihui to give it away. This is the first time we meet, and it will be gone in the future."
After pushing back and forth for two rounds, Chen Lan accepted the pendant at Lin Chaoyang's tough request.
"This jade is still too old-fashioned. Let Du Feng take you to buy some fashionable jewelry, so you can use it when you get married in the future!" Lin Chaoyang teased with a smile.
The two people on the opposite side showed a little shy attitude at the same time, looking very interesting.
After seeing off Du Feng and Chen Lan, Lin Chaoyang glanced at the two children. After returning to Yanjing, they completely let themselves go. They ran around the yard with laughter in the wind.
In the evening, Lin Chaoyang helped Zhang Guiqin prepare supper. She secretly said to Lin Chaoyang with her nanny on her back: "Do you have to give me a vacation too? Whose family is only about the New Year!"
The "family" she mentioned refers to the nanny and bodyguard who came back from Xiangjiang with Lin Chaoyang.
"They also have a holiday during the Chinese New Year. They work harder these days, their salary is higher than usual, and they can get red envelopes."
"How much does it cost? It should be a holiday." Zhang Guiqin muttered.
Lin Chaoyang smiled, changed the topic, and talked to her about homework.
"In recent years, everything has been expensive. We were not like this when we were young. People can't afford to eat rice and white flour!"
"When you were young, you could afford to eat rice and white flour? It's not as exaggerated as you said. Prices rise and wages rise. Besides, you are still short of money? You're a little unreasonable."
"Then you can't make much money, how much money should you spend? The employees of public units are giving 5 yuan in grain price subsidies a month, and your dad and I have nothing."
Lin Chaoyang was amused and cried. After talking for a long time, he realized that his mother's dissatisfaction came from here, and she was not worried about being weak but not being equal.
"What's your value? Isn't you missing? Is my dad going to pay you money to make money?"
"He dares!"
Zhang Guiqin is usually calm and occasionally reveals her martial arts, and she is domineering.
"Okay. How old are you? You didn't have the conditions when you were young. Now you have the conditions, you have to know how to enjoy it."
"Who can enjoy the blessings in the world? Now I am content."
The next day on the 29th day of the New Year, Lin Chaoyang came to Yanda with his two children. Just after lunch, Tao Yumo pushed open the door open.
"It's better to go back early than to go back. Just finished the meal." Tao Yucheng said with a smile.
Tao Yumo looked at his elder brother speechlessly. He was in his forties and had no sign of integrity at all.
She asked Lin Chaoyang: "Where is my sister?"
"Your sister is more dedicated than you, and she hasn't returned home yet."
"I should really give her a model worker."
Tao Yumo put down her luggage, and after her sister-in-law Zhao Li went to heat her rice, she came to her side with a look of concern.
Tao Yumo knew that Zhao Li was not concerned about her, but her eldest nephew.
"Don't worry, Xiwen is pretty good there-
Tao Xiwen enrolled in Stanford University in September. He majored in computer science in the engineering school, ranking first in the United States and second in the world.
Pixar Animation’s headquarters is in Berkeley and is in the San Francisco Bay Area with Stanford University. It is only more than 60 kilometers away. Tao Yumo is on a business trip to the United States and must go see her eldest nephew.
After hearing Tao Yumo talk about Tao Xiwen's situation at school for a while, Zhao Li felt relieved, and then complained: "This child, I don't know what kind of work he is coming back after the holiday! It's not that he can't afford to support him."
Stanford's winter vacation is from mid-December to early January, which lasts more than 20 days. During this winter vacation, Tao Xiwen did not return to Yanjing and told his family that he was working in the United States.
Zhao Li is right. She and Tao Yucheng's small business are not big, but it is definitely not a problem to support Tao Xiwen to study for a graduate student in the United States with her family.
"The child is so sensible and he doesn't want to add burden to you. You must be content," said Tao's father.
"Yes, Xiwen is so sensible, she looks like me!"
Tao Yucheng attracted the topic so naturally to himself. In addition to the topic, he also had a lot of hatred.
"Like you, don't you like you!" Zhao Li snorted coldly, her eyes facing the bedroom. Tao Xiwu was heartlessly rubbing the game controller with Dongdong.
"It's not my fault, it was all caused by Yumo when he was a child!" Tao Yucheng argued.
Tao Yumo was shot while having a meal, "I also brought your eldest son, why did he get into Stanford?"
"This—" Tao Yucheng held it in for a while and said, "This child is still like his aunt."
Tao Yumo looked disgusted, "Are you disgusting? My sister is not here again, why are you flattering?"
"How is this called flattery? I am called seeking truth from facts. Xiwen is like a young man,
It's the same as his elder sister-in-law when she was a child.
Xiwu has been careless since he was a child, like you!"
"You have been a careless person since you were a child. I graduated from Yan University. What is your education?"
Tao Yucheng's poems are exhausted, and Tao Yumo, who is completely successful, becomes proud.
Seeing the brother and sister teasing each other, Lin Chaoyang was amused for a while, and then went upstairs to knock on the disciples of Wu Group's family. The older he was, the more lively he loved. Lin Chaoyang came back with his children just now, and Wu Group listened upstairs.
The Tao family was lively for a long time, and when Lin Chaoyang was coming, he smiled like a naughty boy.
"smoke!"
Lin Chaoyang took the initiative to dissipate the smoke, and Wu Group waved his hand and did not go to answer.
"I didn't expect that I've quit smoking? I really have perseverance-"
Before Lin Chaoyang could finish praising him, Team Wu took out a pipe and lit it for himself leisurely.
Lin Chaoyang:
"You are so serious!"
"The loess is buried in the eyebrows, and there is still a cigarette?" Wu Group exhaled a cigarette ring, and his expression seemed to see through the world.
If the old comrade hadn't had the embarrassment of smoking rations and cigarettes before him, Lin Chaoyang would have almost believed in his masterly style.
"Okay, you're shaking now."
The two of them are friends for ages and are free to chat.
Group Wu has been retired for many years and has been teaching in the past few years. In recent years, he has stopped teaching in no time.
However, this year Yan University established the China Traditional Culture Research Center and wanted him to write a "Wu Pi Honglou" included in the "Chinese Studies Research Series" compiled by the center. He has been busy with this book during this period.
After joking for a while, Lin Chaoyang went downstairs to call his two children to leave, and did not forget to instruct the Tao family to go to Xiaoliubukou Hutong for the New Year tomorrow.
On the morning of 30, Tao Yushu finally returned to Yanjing and had a reunion year with his family.
But when he was having the New Year’s Eve dinner, Tao’s mother was in a bad mood. The reason was naturally because her eldest grandson Tao Xiwen was in the United States.
Tao’s father and Tao’s mother were a few years older than Lin Chaoyang’s parents. Now they are in their seventies. Every New Year Festival, what the elderly look forward to most is reunion, and they are worried about anyone who is not here.
"Xiwen will only study in the United States for two years and will be back soon." Tao Yushu comforted her.
At the beginning of the Spring Festival Gala, Tao Xiwen called another overseas phone call from the United States.
There were firecrackers outside. Although the sound on the phone was not clear, the phone call still made Tao’s father and mother feel better.
The family watched the Spring Festival Gala happily, the children watched the most seriously, while the adults were chatting while watching TV.
