The modern daily life of a beauty boss
Chapter 431: Meeting the Parents
Jin Xiuheng was not affected by Lin Yu's words at all. Like a demon concubine, he directly held Lin Yu's hand and pressed it against his heart, which was very artificial.
After fooling around for a while, he looked up.
"Yu Yu, I have prepared everything."
Hearing this, Lin Yu lowered his eyes.
"Not nervous anymore?"
“Yes, there is a little bit, but it’s more of an expectation.”
Lin Yu raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Okay, I'll tell the elders when I get home."
*
On the day of the visit, there were two other cars following behind the car driven by Jin Xiuheng, both carrying gifts that he had personally selected.
After Lin Yu officially informed them, the father and son, who had been discussing the matter together in the study for two days, looked at Jin Xiuheng who came in with serious expressions.
But the next moment, the two were "beaten" by their wives.
The old lady said: "Why are you looking so gloomy? You've scared Xiu Heng."
Wen Yao: "Talk to them nicely and don't act like an elder."
Old man, Lin Yuan: "... Got it."
He greeted everyone one by one, handed out suitable gifts, and said auspicious words. Jin Xiuheng did everything properly. Later, he prepared many gifts for other people in Luming Garden, and Yuzi's was not left out.
Youzi and Lin Yu whispered: "He's quite good at it."
Lin Yu smiled faintly without saying anything, leaving the "battlefield" to Jin Xiuheng.
After talking for a while, the old man stood up and asked Jin Xiuheng to accompany him to play chess.
"You are good at chess, comparable to Xiao Yu."
After two rounds of downloading on Kuaishou, the old man couldn't help but praise it.
Jin Xiuheng nodded slightly and said, "I learned all this from Yu Yu. I am no match for my master."
Hearing this, the old man raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Oh, really? No wonder your chess styles are so similar. I thought it was because you had sparred with each other before. But, could it be that you learned it specifically to deal with my grandfather?"
"It is my honor to play chess with you, but I also want to learn because Yu Yu likes it. When we have time, we will sit together and play chess as a spiritual communication."
These words touched the old man's heart and made him laugh out loud.
"That's right, when two people get along, they need to communicate, but the way of communication can't be too monotonous."
Jin Xiuheng chuckled and responded: "You are right."
The old man dropped a piece and suddenly began to sigh.
"Alas, it's a pity. You young people should have your own world. As you continue to develop, I don't know how many times a year I can play chess with my beloved grandson."
Jin Xiuheng suddenly had an idea and knew the answer to this question, and he had been preparing for it for a long time.
"I'm not satisfied with what you said. I've thought about this issue. I know you and Yu Yu have a good relationship. If you don't see each other a few times a year, it will definitely not work."
Hearing this, the old man became interested.
"Then how do you want to solve it?"
It's impossible for Lin Yu to stay in Luming Garden forever and then have Jin Xiuheng marry into the family.
Although I think this is not a bad idea, with a yard as big as Lumingyuan, the young couple can have plenty of their own space.
But the old man could see that Jin Xiuheng would not choose this.
It’s not that they think it’s shameful to marry into the wife’s family, but in the minds of people like them, they need a home that they and their loved ones can “build” together and belong to them.
Then, Jin Xiuheng said, "I wonder if you know that the land near Luming Garden was sold in the first half of the year."
"I heard something."
The old man nodded.
Jin Xiuheng then said, "I am the buyer. I have already given it to Yu Yu. A garden is currently being built there, roughly modeled after Lu Ming Garden. I hope that I can still live in a familiar environment in the future, and not be far away from you."
During the meal, everyone else noticed that the old man was obviously much happier.
Lin Yuan whispered to the old man, "Dad, what's going on?"
After coughing twice, the old man said, "I didn't intend to defect. It's just that Xiu Heng was too well prepared."
Previously, I called him Xiao Jin. This is how I address anyone younger than me, using the surname.
But now they have changed their names and have apparently become closer.
Hearing this, Lin Yuan pursed his lips, not knowing what to say.
Seeing this, the old man said, "Hey, don't let me affect your judgment. If you have any tests that you haven't taken yet, just use them. I won't stop you, but it seems that you can't do anything."
Lin Yuan: “…”
You don't have to be so worried.
Jin Xiuheng stayed in Lumingyuan for a week.
In the first three days, he became familiar with everyone in Luming Garden, especially the children, who always wanted to play with him.
"Young aunt is really amazing. Instructor Xu and several other instructors together can't beat her."
"My aunt is very smart and can solve problems much faster than me."
"Auntie is also a great horse rider. Li Zi used to ignore everyone except her uncle, but now she lets Auntie ride her."
"I want my aunt to teach me how to manage such a large group. I also want to be as capable as him."
"..."
There are many speeches like this. Jin Xiuheng more or less understands several areas that the children like, and it is much easier for him to break them down one by one than for adults.
And winning the hearts of children is equivalent to getting their help.
Just look at this: when Lin Yuan was accompanying Wen Yao in painting, he could often hear the children who were used as models speaking well of Jin Xiuheng.
"This Jin family kid is quite capable. He managed to get these guys to speak well of him in just three days."
Wen Yao chuckled. She didn't want to pay attention to the stubborn person. After thinking for a while, she said, "Children have the purest minds. Sometimes they can see many aspects that we adults can't see. If they can recognize a person, it means that the person does have good qualities."
*
When it was time to leave, Jin Xiuheng's car was still full, all of which were return gifts from people from Lumingyuan.
The return gifts included everything, including wood carvings, books, fish worth tens of thousands of dollars, small potted plants, and some handicrafts made by little kids. The most special one was the Rubik's Cube made by little Lin Hao.
Lin Hao has many Rubik's Cubes, but the only person who can let him give away the Rubik's Cube is Lin Yu.
"Remember what you promised me."
Jin Xiuheng held out his little finger and said to Lin Hao, "Let's pinky promise."
This may seem a bit childish for children with high IQ, but it also has an inexplicable appeal.
After the pinky promise, Jin Xiuheng also got a hug from little girl Lin Ji.
Afterwards, Lin Ji took her uncle's hand and said to Jin Xiuheng, "Aunt, although my uncle is very powerful, you are still responsible for protecting him."
Jin Xiuheng turned to look at Lin Yu and responded with a smile.
"I will always protect him."
Everyone finished speaking, except Lin Yuan.
The head of the family took half a step forward with his hands behind his back. Before he could open his mouth, his wife patted his hand on the back.
"Just say something, why are you so tense?"
This reaction was pointed out, causing everyone to laugh.
Lin Yuan was not annoyed. He coughed twice with some embarrassment and said, "Whenever you have time, we and your father, as well as other elders, can come. Otherwise, people will say that our family is big and powerful and bullies others."
This reminded Jin Xiuheng that when the elders of both sides were discussing serious matters, important relatives must be present.
There are quite a few people from the Lumingyuan family alone. If people from the side branches also come, wouldn’t it be a bit pitiful for the lonely “old father”?
Thinking of this, Jin Xiuheng said to Lin Yu who was sending him out, "When the elders meet for dinner, my dad asked a few friends to come and support the occasion. Should that be okay?"
