Chapter Eighty-Seven: Hostility
In an elegant and chic room in the west courtyard. Lin Chendui met her grandmother Guo Meijun.
Actually, it's strictly calculated. Guo Meijun is the second wife of Old Man Jiang. Old man Jiang's first wife. In that war-torn era, he unfortunately died. didn't leave a son and a half daughter for Old Man Jiang. Later, he was introduced and matched by the superior leaders. and Guo Meijun, an intellectual youth who came to Yan'an from the Guotong Region, was combined. The man is brave and handsome. He was a prominent leader of our party and our army at that time. And the woman is young and beautiful. He is also intellectually and progressively minded. their combination. can be described as a talented woman. At the time, it was rumored to be a good story.
After marriage. Guo Meijun is married and taught children. gave birth to a son and a daughter for Mr. Jiang. That is, Lin Chendui's father Jiang Jimin and aunt Jiang Wanlin. Originally, it was a warm and happy family. But because of Jiang Jimin's unexpected death. Cast a shadow. And Guo Meijun couldn't stand such a big stimulus. I can't afford to be sick. Nowadays, you can only rely on a wheelchair to get around.
Because I was afraid of stimulating Guo Meijun. Therefore. Lin Chendui was attacked and treated at the General Hospital of the Military Region, but she was not told. This was the first time she had seen Lin Chendu.
Maybe it's because of the constant family and blood ties. Or maybe it's Lin Chendui. There are too many shadows of Jiang Jimin. As soon as Guo Meijun saw Lin Chendui. In a trance. But it's like seeing day and night. Let her be like a son with a broken heart. I couldn't help but tremble with excitement. Teary-eyed. Hold Lin Chendui's hand and don't let go. He also sobbed in his mouth: "Jimin." My son. You're finally back......"
Lin Chenwan couldn't help but feel sad. Grandma's current appearance. When I woke up with my mother in the hospital. How similar. It's really pitiful for the hearts of parents all over the world. The one who cares most about his children. Always a great and loving mother. can be regarded by his grandmother as his father. He was a little embarrassed again. Don't dare to speak. I don't dare to move around. for fear of stimulating grandma's already fragile nerves.
"Mom. He's not big brother. It's Xiaohui. You take a closer look. He's your grandson, Xiaohui. "Critical time. It was his aunt Jiang Wanlin who relieved him.
The old man was happy for a while. also informed Jiang Wanlin to bring the whole family over for dinner. For many years. The Jiang family has always been incomplete. Especially in the Mid-Autumn Festival and Spring Festival, when the whole family is reunited and celebrated. The Jiang family always seems to be overshadowed. I couldn't be happier. All are cautious. I'm afraid that it will touch everyone's hearts forever. And now. It's finally complete.
"What. It's Xiaohui. Guo Meijun listened to her daughter. I gradually woke up from my hysterical thoughts. Wiped a handful of tears. He looked Lin Chenwan up and down carefully. Overjoyed, he said, "Xiaohui." You're finally back. It's good to come back. It's good to come back. Over the years. I have suffered a lot. I blame your grandfather. He's just an old stubborn. You ignore him......"
"Grandma. I'm fine. "In front of Old Man Jiang. Lin Chenwan may have a lot of worries. Even deliberately kept a certain distance. can be in front of the sincere Guo Meijun. It's as if it's hard to hide the surging emotions. Immediately knelt down in front of Guo Meijun. His face was on Guo Meijun's knees. Choked up and said, "Grandma." I'm sorry. I didn't know it all these years. Otherwise. I've been visiting grandma for a long time. ”
"Xiaohui. Hurry up. Hurry up. Guo Meijun took Lin Chendui's hand. I tried hard to pull him up. Jiang Wanlin also helped Lin Chendui. Lin Chendui got up from the ground at this time. But he still squatted in front of Guo Meijun.
Guo Meijun kindly rubbed Lin Chendu's hair. said: "Xiaohui." You're back this time. Let's just leave. ”
Lin Chendu's face was embarrassed. Guo Meijun's eyes were full of expectation. He really didn't know how to answer this question. I don't want to let her down and be hurt.
"I'm not leaving. Of course not. Jiang Wanlin smiled and said, "I have already asked Zhiqiang to find a house." When the time comes. The sister-in-law and Xiaohui stayed. Never go again. We're reunited as a family. Never separate again. ”
"What else are you looking for?" Guo Meijun glanced at Jiang Wanlin. He said angrily: "It's good to live at home." I can also see Xiaohui every day. "Say it. patted Lin Chendui's hand again. He asked with concern, "Xiaohui." You don't feel like you're living with us. It's boring. ”
Jiang Wanlin couldn't help but secretly speak. Mom, this pair of Xiaohui is too partial. To know. The house where the old man lives. Seemingly ordinary. But it is a symbol of power and status. There are not many people in this country who are qualified to live in it. Not far away is the retreat of the No. 1 Great Man. Even if they come over on weekdays. It is also subject to a number of rigorous inspections. Mom left Xiaohui here. That's probably not long. The high-level cadre circles of the entire Sijiu City will be shocked.
Facing Guo Meijun, who is deeply concerned. Lin Chenwan didn't know if it was time to answer. glanced at Jiang Wanlin as if asking for help.
Jiang Wanlin smiled and helped him out, "Mom." Xiaohui lives here. It's so inconvenient to get in and out. ”
"What's so inconvenient about that." Guo Meijun glanced at Jiang Wanlin with some displeasure. said: "You haven't been married yet." Aren't you living here, too? It's a big deal, I'll ask them to get a pass for Xiaohui. "Say it. Holding Lin Chendui's hand, he couldn't help but tighten. As if he was afraid that he would disappear in front of him.
"Mom. You can't always think that you're not. Jiang Wanlin said with a smile: "Xiaohui is not too young. There will always be a circle of their own and friends. What friends come and go here. It's not convenient to have a girlfriend. Besides. My sister-in-law doesn't necessarily like to live here. ”
Guo Meijun thought for a moment. It seems that her daughter has some truth in what she said. But he is reluctant to have a grandson who he has not seen since birth. After thinking about it for a while. She added, "In that case." It's okay to find a house. But you can't find a house far. Preferably around here. And also. Xiaohui. You're going to come and see us whenever you have time. You know. Don't be afraid of trouble. Me and your grandfather. I don't know how many years I will live......"
"Grandma. You and Grandpa will live a long life. Lin Chenwan hurriedly said loudly.
Jiang Wanlin also smiled and said, "Yes." Mother. Xiaohui hasn't gotten married or had children. Don't you want to hug your great-grandson? ”
"Yes. How don't you want to. I dreamed of it. Guo Meijun smiled. There was an expectant look on his face. It seems to be immersed in infinite joy and happiness. After a while. It was as if I remembered something. said to Lin Chendui: "Xiaohui." You're not too young. Why aren't you married? Isn't it not eye-catching? Your mom too. There's no hurry. "Between words. I can't help but have some complaints.
"Huh. Mother. Don't worry about it. Let's Xiaohui is a talent. He is also intelligent and capable. There are countless girls who like him. He must have been picky. Jiang Wanlin quipped.
Lin Chendui couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. I like to talk about it.
"Xiao Lin. Then you, who are aunts, should be more careful. Guo Meijun said with some worry: "Now the girl." It's not as simple as we were back then. You have to check for Xiaohui's kid more. And also. This is in the capital. There is a suitable girl. You can also talk about it. But. You don't want that kind of high-flying. I don't want our Xiaohui to be bullied. ”
"This. This one. Grandmother. I'm young. I want to fight for a few more years. Lin Chendui hurriedly said.
"That's not going to work." Guo Meijun put on a posture of being a grandmother. said solemnly: "Your dad is your age." I'm afraid you'll be able to walk and run. Besides. Have a daughter-in-law to take care of you. Your grandfather and I can rest easy. ”
"Huh. Mother. You can rest assured. I'm going to count all the unmarried girls between the ages of eighteen and twenty-two in our city. Then bring it to you and your dad to choose from. You see, that's all right. Jiang Wanlin said with a giggle.
Lin Chendui sweated profusely. How does it feel like an ancient emperor draft. I thought Jiang Wanlin was just joking. Who knew that Guo Meijun nodded and said, "Well." That's it. "I almost fainted from the thunder.
After saying this. Guo Meijun nagged again and asked about Lin Chendu's affairs over the years. Speaking of sadness. I couldn't help but wipe away my tears again.
Talking. Footsteps sounded. A few people walked in from the outside. The first one wears glasses. A very intellectual middle-aged man. Tall. The face is also very kind. He was followed by two children, a man and a woman, aged fifteen or sixteen. Looks good. There are also some hanging images. At first glance, you can tell that it is a dragon and phoenix fetus.
The man is Jiang Wanlin's husband Ren Zhiqiang. Professor at a well-known university in the capital. It's an academic researcher. The character is a little wooden. But people are very nice. Lin Chenwan saw it when he was in the hospital. And the pair of children. Most of them are the children of the two, Ren Weihao and Ren Weiqi. The two children seemed to be seeing Lin Chendui for the first time. After entering the house, the dark black eyes swirled on him from time to time. It seems to be speculating about his identity and origin.
Lin Chenwan hurriedly stood up and greeted Ren Zhiqiang. Jiang Wanlin complained a little: "Why are you here so late." ”
"Huh. Traffic jam. Traffic jam. Ren Fanliang said with a smile. He greeted Guo Meijun again and said, "Mom." Recently, I have been feeling well. This is the American ginseng that my colleague brought back from abroad. It is said that it is good for the body. ”
"Good. Good. "Maybe it's because of Lin Chendu. Guo Meijun looked very happy. Just muttered. Let him not spend this unjust money in the future. Think about it too. In fact, with the status of Old Man Jiang. I can't use any good things at home and abroad. Why bother to buy American ginseng. At best, it is just filial piety.
"Come on. Wei Hao Wei Qi. You haven't seen him. I tell you. He's your little brother. Same with you. They are all grandma's favorite grandchildren. For some reason. Grandparents. And your mother. and he has been separated for more than twenty years. Now finally reunited again. You have a brother too. Gao is not happy. ”
"Happy." The two children said in unison. However, Lin Chen saw it clearly. In the eyes of the little boy Ren Weihao. But a look of disgust flashed. I couldn't help but wonder a little. It seems that this is the first time we have met. Why did Ren Weihao show such great hostility towards himself?
