Ok.
Chen Qing was left behind.
After all, some things this time are not suitable for Chen Qing to get involved with.
Chen Qing resented this on the surface, but she had more expectations in her heart.The man promised that after she was 30, she could also have a child. She is 28 years old, and the time is not far away.
At that time, the man will definitely be flat with a bowl of water.
Thinking of this, Chen Qing was even a little apprehensive, wondering if her father would beat her and his unscrupulous couple together with a chicken blanket.
This, probably not.
Because of the fate that was approved by a fortune-telling when she was a child and her temperament that gradually came true when she grew up, what her parents thought about all these years was that she would be a bad example and harm others, and even when she was young, her father took her to watch the execution The kind of brain splashing, the purpose is just to keep her from going astray.
Calculated in this way, her parents' expectations of her must have reached the minimum.At that time, I will bring back a 'Simon Westeros' and say that this is my man. Although, she must be a little five, a little six, a little seven, but it is enough to meet the expectations of my parents.
Chapter 1097 Do as the Romans do
Hangzhou, China.
A Chinese-style house shaded by trees on the west bank of the West Lake can be described as the place that the top of the pyramid in the whole city has paid close attention to in recent days.
Because of the sudden arrival of a certain super tycoon.
Then the news came out that Simon Westeros came to China this time only for personal matters, specifically to establish a relationship with a certain girl surnamed Lin, and there were even rumors that the girl was pregnant.The status of those who can inquire about these news will not be low, and the reaction to this matter will not be as red-eyed as some ordinary people who habitually hate the rich, but mostly envious.
That's Simon? Westeros!
According to news from abroad, as the US technology stocks continue to skyrocket, Simon Westeros' personal net worth has reached 2 trillion US dollars.
Gee.
Two trillion U.S. dollars is completely unimaginable. After all, the domestic GDP in the past year was only 8600 billion U.S. dollars.
Not to mention other things, the other party had just landed in the country, and the orders directly from the capital were layered down, requiring all departments to do a good job in reception work, and no mistakes were allowed.Then, besides a certain tycoon, a large number of people had their annual leave canceled.
西蒙和林素2月3日上午出发,抵达中国已经是北京时间的2月4日的下午,这天是腊月27。
directly to the door.
After communicating frankly with Lin's father and Lin's mother, the Lin family, who had already expected it, also agreed.
Simon also prepared a generous dowry in accordance with Chinese traditions. Lin Su naturally had a lot of rings. After a lively family dinner that night, the relationship between the two was completely settled.
After all, given the social level of the Lin family, certain things are not uncommon at all.Even if her own daughter became a woman of Simon Westeros, even if she was not considered a genuine wife, she was not condescending no matter how she looked at it.Lin's father and Lin's mother once thought that their daughter would remain unknown by each other's side.Now, the other party came to the door in person, showed all the courtesy, and then learned about the other party's arrangements for the child in his daughter's womb, so it was impossible to expect too much.
Get this matter done in a hurry, and the next day is the 29th of the twelfth lunar month.
There is no [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month this year, and this day is New Year's Eve. In the compound at dusk, the Lin family, still surrounded by festive atmosphere, is busily preparing for the New Year's Eve dinner.
Because this compound with an area of more than six acres is spacious enough, and Father Lin inevitably wants to show off, in addition to Lin Su's grandparents, Father Lin also invited his other four brothers and sisters to come together today. During the Chinese New Year here, there are more than 30 members of the Lin family in the compound at this time.
In the spacious kitchen on one side of the compound, except for the two chefs who were invited to cook, the rest of the family members of the Lin family were busy. After all, cooking the New Year's Eve dinner by yourself is more atmospheric.
Lin Lan stood next to the sister who insisted on coming to help like an idiot, randomly picked a basket of beans, and said in a gossipy tone, "Sister, he really promised that the child will be called Little Simon? Lin? Westeros?"
Lin Su guessed that the father, who was chatting with relatives in the main room, must have slipped his tongue on purpose, and his sister heard her asking this question, so she just nodded slightly.
"Although, I also know that Westerners like to name their children after their elders, but it still feels weird." Seeing her sister nodding and expressing her opinion, Lin Lan lowered her voice, "However, after all, it is Little Simon, does he, that, um, the main house have any objection to this?"
Before Lin Su could react, Lin Lan's head had already been slapped by a hand, and she turned her head subconsciously. Seeing her mother with unkind eyes, Lin Lan quickly tried to change the subject: "Mom, your hands are wet, my hair..."
Mother Lin didn't give her second daughter a chance to change the subject, she stared at her and said, "If you can't speak, just keep your mouth shut."
"Why can't I talk anymore, I only talk in front of my sister," Lin Lan muttered, and couldn't help it: "Mom, tell me, what if it's a girl?"
This sentence obviously made Lin's mother even more angry, and she slapped Lin Lan again. Although this time it hit Lin Lan on the back, she didn't hold back at all. Lin Lan's painful screams made other female relatives in the kitchen watch.Mother Lin smiled at everyone, then grabbed her second daughter by the ear and pulled towards the door: "Go, go, don't make trouble here, I'll be annoyed when I see you, you're old, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Although Mother Lin has always advertised that she is not patriarchal, how could her daughter give birth to a boy!
After driving the second daughter away, Mother Lin said to the eldest daughter in a reassuring way: "Don't listen to your sister's nonsense, she has a bad mouth since she was a child, and it's not like you don't know it."
"It's nothing." Lin Su just smiled. Compared with the depression in North America a few days ago, in recent days, because of a certain man doing these things, her whole temperament has become clear again, and she whispered He continued: "Actually, he likes children very much. It doesn't matter if it's a girl this time. I... Well, I can have another one. Anyway, there is no family planning in the United States."
Mother Lin nodded slightly, and then sighed softly: "Xiao Su, if he can do this, we can all feel that he is sincere to you. However, even if you don't tell me, I can guess that there must be a lot of people around him. There are many women, in short, in the future, you can’t really expect too much, take good care of yourself and your children, in short, let yourself live a better life, don’t be too entangled in status and the like.”
Lin Su nodded: "Mom, I know."
Saying this, Lin Su couldn't help but think of someone's arrangements for the women around her, they were all in pairs, even in Cape Dumei Manor, there were also two Jenny.Obviously, he probably also thought about some issues.
What an asshole.
Seeing that the eldest daughter suddenly remembered something, Lin's mother didn't bother her. She quickly picked a basket of beans and handed it to a female family member next to her. , and one more thing, tonight, you know, on New Year's Eve, your dad and I should give him a red envelope, this, do you think we should give it?"
Lin Su blinked, then curled up the corners of her mouth: "Of course I have to, why not?"
"Then, how much is appropriate?"
"You can give Qin Yusong as much as you give him. They are both sons-in-law, so you can't treat one more favorably than another, right?"
Seeing her daughter saying these words, Mother Lin smiled even more, and couldn't help but patted her on the back of her hand: "I know how to joke, and I want to see your mother joke."
"No." Lin Su restrained himself a little, and said, "He is very like the Romans, and this red envelope should also be regarded as a red envelope."
Mother Lin was taken aback when she heard the words.
I imagined a certain Simon? Westeros changed his name and called them... I feel a little unbearable when I think about it.
After staying for a while, Mother Lin said again: "Then, let your father give it to you."
Lin Su smiled again: "Don't make things difficult for my dad, he will be frightened."
Lin's mother thought about her husband trying to support his father-in-law's airs in front of the elder daughter's man in the past two days, but he obviously lacked bones, and she also felt that it was wrong, but then she glared at her daughter again: "How can you say that about your father? ?”
Lin Su looked innocent: "I didn't say anything."
Mother Lin hesitated for a moment, and then said again: "Why don't you go talk to him and explain about the red envelope, that, just change your words."
Lin Su shook her head directly: "I'm his woman now, and I'm pregnant with his child, so he should change his mind."
"It's different. Don't think I don't understand anything. I heard that foreigners call their father-in-law and mother-in-law by their first names, and they don't have the habit of calling parents."
Lin Su nodded, and then concentrated on picking vegetables.
Seeing her daughter like this, Lin's mother thought about it, and then said cautiously: "How about being more formal and calling her father-in-law?"
Seeing her mother's tangled look, Lin Su thought about the man again, she hadn't communicated with him about this in private, in case... this is actually not bad: "Then I'll tell him later, However, Qin Yusong called your parents, and he called his father-in-law, isn't it right?"
"Then let Xiao Qin yell like that together, there will be no mistakes."
Lin Su shrugged slightly.
"What's wrong with this?" Lin's mother raised her hand and slapped the eldest daughter on the shoulder, and then remembered something: "Hey, also, the children of your uncle and aunt outside will also give red envelopes after the New Year's Eve dinner, you Are you ready?"
Lin Su nodded: "I'm ready."
Mother Lin lowered her voice subconsciously and asked, "How much?"
Lin Su said: "666."
Mother Lin was startled: "So many?"
"He decided on it. He thinks this number is auspicious." Lin Su said, seeing his mother's distressed expression, explained: "It's nothing, you know, money is not money at all to him."
"That can't be so much," Lin Mu raised her voice instinctively, and then quickly lowered it: "That, is it RMB?"
"He's an American, of course it's dollars."
When Mother Lin heard the words, she subconsciously calculated in her mind, shook her hand, and dropped a handful of vegetables into the frame, and directly pulled her daughter out of the kitchen, walked to a storage room next door, and whispered: "No, I can't give it to you. so much."
More than 600 US dollars, converted into RMB, more than 5000.
Of course, Mother Lin knew that her daughter's man had too much money to spend, but the New Year's money given at one time was equivalent to most people's annual salary, which was a bit too messy.
Lin Su was dragged over, and said helplessly, "Mom, we've already packed the red envelopes."
"Then repackage, Xiaosu, listen to the mother, this is not a one-year thing, this year you gave so much, what will you do next year, you can't give so much every year, can you?"
"There will still be so much in the future." Lin Su held his mother's hand and persuaded: "Mom, it's really nothing, and, think about it, everyone knows how much money he has, and if he gives less, he loses face." , I don't want him to be gossiped in private."
"That's also..." Lin's mother was about to continue, when she suddenly realized: "He also said that it was his decision, but it was obviously your decision, so I said, how could he, an American, know anything about 660, you, what else? You can't give so much to save face. In my opinion, 66 is pretty good, and Liuliu is smooth."
Lin Su also found that she had slipped the tongue, but she didn't mean to quibble: "Okay, Mom, this is our business. Besides, Xiaoguang and the others are not outsiders, so just treat it as my aunt giving them future tuition fees."
Mother Lin felt her daughter's stubborn tone, sighed, and then reacted: "Even if Xiaoguang and the others are not outsiders, in the past few days, there will definitely be other relatives and friends bringing their children to celebrate the New Year, so you can't give them like this."
"I know, I've made up my mind." Lin Su said, pushing her mother outside: "Let's go help, hiding here is like negotiating something bad."
"Don't fool me, how much do you want?"
"100," Lin Su said, "It will be the same in the future."
"Or dollars?"
"Ah."
"You're a prodigal, you..."
"Mom, why don't you go and tell him to pay less for the new year's money?"
The two turned to the door of the kitchen. Mother Lin heard her daughter beating her like this, and gently pushed her to prevent her from entering the door: "Go, go, go, don't make trouble anymore, I'm upset seeing you."
Knowing that her mother was afraid of getting pregnant, she was tired, Lin Su didn't refuse, turned around and walked towards the main room.
After saying hello to several men who were chatting with grandfather and father's generation in the main room, Lin Su followed the voice and came to the next door.
We are playing chess here.
The two players in the game were Simon and Lin Lan's husband, Qin Yusong, surrounded by a group of young people including Lin Su's two younger brothers.
Seeing Lin Su approaching, everyone stepped aside.
Seeing Lin Lan lying on her husband's back, pointing at the chessboard on the table, Lin Su also naturally stood behind the man, not as close as the younger sister and her husband, but just put one hand on the man shoulders.
Look at the chessboard.
This game of chess has begun to wrap up.
Lin Su could tell at a glance that her brother-in-law and younger sister seemed to be working together to win against Simon, but they were actually fighting together.
Both are human beings.
Of course, he wouldn't expose it. I guess my man knew it in his heart, so he also started to advise from the side, and was accused by Lin Lan of bad rules. The atmosphere in the room became more lively and warm.
And so on until it got dark.
The New Year's Eve dinner was ready, and the whole family divided the tables into several tables and crowded the hall. The TV was showing the preheating of the upcoming Spring Festival Gala. This long-lost feeling of familiarity and strangeness mixed together almost brought tears to Simon's eyes.It is a little regretful that there is no sound of firecrackers.
Unexpectedly, firecrackers were banned in Hangzhou in the 90s.
However, when Simon pretended to be curious and asked why he couldn't hear the sound of firecrackers that should be there for Chinese New Year, there were soon firecrackers.
So complete.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, the whole family began to pay New Year's greetings to each other, but it was mainly Lin Su and Simon, first to Lin Su's grandparents, then to Lin's father and Lin's mother, and then to the four uncles and aunts, who were reminded by Lin Su in private After Simon received the red envelope, he changed his words decisively. Others were a little reserved. When they were called father-in-law, Father Lin, who drank too much wine again, almost laughed.
Finally, the juniors came forward to pay New Year's greetings.
Lin Su handed out thick red envelopes one by one, which made Lin Lan jealous, and finally called out to her sister and brother-in-law to grab one too.Probably because they checked the red envelopes quietly, and the atmosphere became more cordial and harmonious during the subsequent New Year's Eve celebration.
Ok.
Still a little bit of a discordant episode.
The problem is in the Spring Festival Gala.
When Uncle Benshan's "Red Sorghum Model Team" appeared, Mr. Fan used to say "just like the world's supermodel Cindy Crawford", but replaced it with Jian Xin and Tao Yuelei, who are well known all over the country in recent months. Names, moreover, the two women also appeared in the VIP seats in the audience, and got a close-up shot.
Of course, it is impossible for the Lin family to know what happened to Jian Xin and Tao Yuelei, and of course it is impossible for Lin Su not to know, so Simon was pinched by Lin Su, who snuggled up to him like a cat, very resentfully and of course not lethally. .
Chapter 1098 Rafting
After New Year's Eve, there were two days of non-stop entertainment. On the first day of the new year, we went around to pay New Year's greetings, on the second day of the second year, we entertained guests with banquets, and until the third day, we finally had time to relax. It was also the last day of Simon's trip to China.
In the morning, Lin Su and Lin Su visited some scenic spots around the West Lake, and also watched the progress of the construction of the 5-hectare manor on the shore of the West Lake last year. After lunch, the two did not walk around anymore, but set foot on a cruise ship , Boating on the West Lake.
"Our family has been a famous family since the Qing Dynasty. Grandpa said that there was a library in the family at the beginning, which contained tens of thousands of ancient books. Unfortunately, they were lost for various reasons. This set of "Qing Barnyard Banknotes" is one of the few preserved to the present day. The current one, but it’s not complete anymore. Well, there are two poems in this volume that Grandpa likes very much, you’ve read them just now, guess what?”
"When Zhanger sees Nanxue, plum blossoms and I grow old."
"You, how do you guess so accurately?"
