When Li Ning arrived in the living room, a family of three was talking in a low voice with a slightly restrained posture.

When Li Ning approached, the three of them looked at Li Ning with some confusion and stood up hesitantly.

In previous years, Wang Zhongmao came to pay New Year's greetings to Mrs. Shen, but Li Ning did not show up, so it was the first time they met, and they didn't know each other.

"Are you ......," Wang Zhongmao asked suspiciously.

"This is the young grandmother." It happened that the maid served tea and introduced.

"Oh, it turned out to be the eldest young grandmother, and I didn't recognize it."

Knowing Li Ning's identity, Wang Zhongmao's smile immediately climbed into the corners of his eyebrows, and he stepped forward to take the initiative to shake hands with Li Ning.

"Hello."

Li Ning was embarrassed but not polite to greet with a smile, and he was a little unaccustomed to Wang Zhongmao's overly enthusiastic attitude.

"When Mu Zhi married you, I also attended your wedding, but I haven't seen you for a long time, and I didn't recognize it for a while, and the young grandmother was even more glamorous than she saw at that time."

"Jingwen, see if you don't recognize it either." Wang Zhongmao asked his wife behind him.

"Yes, the young grandmother is getting more and more beautiful and temperamental, and she just looks like it, but she didn't dare to recognize it for a while, and she hasn't seen her for a long time."

"Thank you." Li Ning still smiled and replied lightly.

"By the way, Grandma knows who I am, right?" Wang Zhongmao was warm and polite for a long time, and suddenly asked Li Ning.

Li Ning smiled lightly, "Of course, in terms of seniority, you should be called uncle, right?" ”

"Oops, that's embarrassing." Wang Zhongmao smiled and waved his hand, but then said, "But China is a country of etiquette, although it is in a new society, but this relative is still clear, not to mention, it is still a big family like our Shen family." ”

"Yes." Li Ning smiled lightly, and then made a gesture of please, "Let's sit down and talk slowly." ”

After Li Ning took the lead in taking a seat, Wang Zhongmao's family sat back in place one after another.

"By the way, grandma Da Shao, let me introduce you, this is my daughter Wang Peilin, who is twenty-three years old this year, just call her Xiaolin."

Wang Zhongmao said, giving Wang Peilin a look, "Don't hurry up and call someone." ”

"Grandma, grandma."

Wang Peilin didn't know what to call Li Ning, and she couldn't call her grandmother.

Li Ning smiled, "I should be your sister-in-law according to my seniority, just call me sister-in-law." And my uncle and aunt also call me Li Ning, and the young grandmother sounds very strange. ”

"Sister-in-law." Wang Peilin nodded obediently and immediately shouted.

Wang Zhongmao smiled, "The young grandmother really doesn't have a shelf at all." Although we didn't see each other often before, I occasionally read about my grandmother in some magazines and newspapers. Knowing that you not only have a harmonious relationship with Mu Zhi, but also have a successful career, I told Xiao Lin at that time that to be a woman, you have to be like a young grandmother. ”

"You've won a prize." Li Ning smiled humbly.

Mrs. Wang replied on the side: "We Xiaolin don't say that we can be as outstanding as the eldest and youngest grandmothers, as long as we can have one percent of the eldest and youngest grandmothers, then I will wake up with a smile in my dreams." ”

Since Li Ning married Shen Muzhi, she has usually been flattered and flattered, no matter how people look at her behind her back, she always says good things in person.

Therefore, the slightly blunt compliment of Wang Zhongmao and his wife was not taken seriously, and he only took a sip of tea with a light smile, and then slowly put down the tea cup.

"I heard from my family that every year my uncle would come to pay New Year's greetings to my grandmother, but unfortunately I hadn't been able to meet in previous years. But it's unfortunate that Uncle came today, grandma went out, and he shouldn't be able to come back for a while, I don't know if Uncle has something to do to find grandma? ”

Li Ning estimated that Xiao Yu was about to wake up, so he didn't want to continue to say some useless polite words, so he asked straight to the point.

The husband and wife glanced at each other, and Wang Zhongmao smiled a little stiffly, "Actually, there is nothing wrong, I just wanted to come to visit the old lady, but I didn't expect it to come unfortunately." ”

"When grandma comes back, I will tell her old man, and grandma should be very happy to know that my uncle remembers her old man so much."

"Yes, yes." Wang Zhongmao answered absentmindedly.

Immediately, Li Ning did not take the initiative to speak again, Wang Zhongmao obviously had something to say but he didn't know how to speak, so the atmosphere fell into a somewhat awkward silence for a while.

There was silence for nearly a minute, and Mrs. Wang was the first to break the silence.

"Actually, we not only want to visit the old lady this time, but also want to ask the old lady for help with something."

"I don't know what's going on?" Li Ning nodded slightly and asked.

Only then did Wang Zhongmao answer: "Actually, it's also for business. Recently, a branch of Shen's Group Company is bidding for the project, and our company is also participating, but the competition for this project is particularly fierce, so I want to ask the old lady to see if she can give some advice. ”

If it was for other things, Li Ning might be able to help, but since it was for the project of the group company, of course she was not good at agreeing.

"I thought that if it was something else, maybe I would be able to agree to it, but I really can't say anything about this company. I'm afraid I still have to talk to my grandmother and his old man. If she doesn't come back, I'll tell you. Or, if the uncle and aunt are not busy, they can stay at home and wait for the grandmother to come back, and then talk to her about it. ”

"Then I don't know, when will the old lady come back?" Mrs. Wang asked.

"Today is the regular board meeting of the group company, and after the meeting, grandma will go directly to meet a few friends, and she should be back before the evening."

When they heard that they would have to wait so long, the husband and wife looked at each other.

Wang Zhongmao said: "Then don't wait, it's the same to visit another day." ”

Li Ning didn't force him to stay, and nodded with a light smile.

thought that Wang Zhongmao's family was ready to leave, but Wang Peilin held Mrs. Wang's arm and secretly signaled something.

Mrs. Wang immediately said: "Actually, there is another small matter, I don't know if the young grandmother can help speak." ”

"Tell me." Li Ning smiled politely.

Mrs. Wang glanced at her daughter, and then smiled a little embarrassedly at Li Ning.

"Actually, for Xiao Lin's sake, this child is very keen on singing and performing, and has been exercising and learning, but he has never found a suitable platform. We know that the Shen family has a brokerage company that is also cultivating newcomers, I don't know if we can ask Mrs. Shen to talk about it, so that Xiao Lin can also enter the company to study, and give this child a chance. ”

After Mrs. Wang finished speaking, she and Wang Peilin both looked at Li Ning with expectant eyes, and that kind of look made people can't bear to say the words of refusal.
