Chapter 403 Jiang Guoan
After everyone in the village had left, the person who had spoken earlier exclaimed, "You really have a lot of patience with them!"
“You learned this from your grandfather!” An Songlin couldn’t help but laugh.
Seeing that An Songyu and her sister were looking over, he said, "Does he look familiar but you don't know who he is?"
"That's normal, we're from a big city, that's what we're all doing in our village!"
"Grandpa Wenlin's own grandson!"
"Oh... you mean the real city dweller?" An Songxiang realized instantly.
Back when she returned to the village, she was called a city dweller, and one of the people she was being compared to was the person in front of her.
Tsk tsk, they said they weren't real city people, but this one is the real deal!
On the contrary, it took An Songyu a while to remember who he was.
The reason why the village committee of Jiangcun is predominantly composed of people with the surname Jiang is that, in addition to the fact that as many as 80% of the population of Jiangcun is surnamed Jiang.
This is also because the Jiang family has produced many capable people.
Among them was Jiang Wenlin's youngest son.
I heard he was among the first batch of college students after the resumption of the college entrance examination.
After graduation, I was assigned to the capital city of the southern province.
In just a few years, he rose to a considerable position as a cadre in a state-owned enterprise.
Later, with the arrival of reform and opening up, state-owned enterprises gradually lost their competitiveness.
In addition, due to various debts, state-owned enterprises were transformed into privately-owned businesses.
At that time, Jiang Wenlin's youngest son seized the opportunity.
He went from being a leader in a state-owned enterprise to the owner of a private enterprise.
Over the years, although no one knows how well he has developed in Nanshi... compared to the villagers of Jiangcun who can only afford luxury cars through demolition compensation.
A few years ago, their family would come and go by car, picking them up and dropping them off.
Although, according to them, it was just a company car.
But now that all the companies are privately owned, he's the boss.
What's the difference between this car belonging to the company and the one belonging to his family?
However, all of them have to work or run their businesses, so they usually return to the village even less often than An Songyu's family.
Before An Songyu returned, her family's homestead had just been sold before the demolition.
Aside from An Jianping and An Songlin, their family would occasionally reunite with the people of Jiangcun for reasons such as ancestor worship.
Most of the others welcomed Jiangcun's relatives at their own homes.
As for the Jiangcun incident, everyone generally avoids it as much as possible.
Only when it's absolutely unavoidable will I mention it briefly.
Therefore, An Songyu was not only unclear about the situation in Jiangcun, but also about the situation of this capable family in Jiangcun.
As for An Songyu's rebirth and the present... Jiang Wenlin's family had already separated many years ago.
His youngest son's family doesn't even have a household registration in Jiangcun.
His family was separated from the An family.
The principle is that even after the family splits up, one will live with one of the sons.
They were either the eldest son or the youngest son.
Jiang Wenlin naturally lived with his eldest son, who had always stayed in the village.
Therefore, this demolition has almost nothing to do with the youngest son.
There were no conflicts in their family, and Jiang Wenlin was even preoccupied with the village's demolition and relocation.
She had no time to accept her youngest son's concern.
So even after being reborn, An Songyu has never met their entire family.
But now, upon hearing that An Songlin is Jiang Wenlin's grandson...
Once An Songyu realized what was happening, she knew who it was.
Unlike their family and many other families in Jiangcun, they had many children and grandchildren.
He was able to enter university just after the resumption of the college entrance examination, and after four years of university study, he was assigned to Nanshi.
When the village chief's youngest son got married, it was naturally during the one-child policy.
As both husband and wife are employees of a state-owned enterprise, they naturally have to strictly abide by the rules.
Thus, they became a rare family in Jiangcun with only one child.
Clearly, the other person was quite unhappy with this "real city dweller" label, and rolled their eyes at An Songxiang.
After the joke, An Songlin asked seriously, "Why did you come back this time?"
After all, whether before or after the demolition of Jiangcun, the family of three had hardly ever seen anyone.
However, everyone knows they are busy, and it seems they do come back during holidays.
They just don't usually appear in the village.
Therefore, there weren't many negative comments during the discussion.
"Because... I heard we're coming to the beach!" Jiang Guoan answered evasively.
But seeing the somewhat incredulous looks on the An family members' faces, he added, "I'm in college now, and time isn't as tight as it used to be!"
"Going to university? You're not from Nanjing University, are you?" An Songxiang asked almost subconsciously.
After all, at this point in time, even college students would probably find it difficult to take a long vacation to make a special trip back.
Unless the university is located in a place that is not far from Fengyin Bay.
Jiang Guoan gave a thumbs up without hesitation.
This is the kind of reaction he believes a person capable of building a successful career should have.
Most people in Jiangcun were just lucky to have followed the right people.
The An family members were naturally unaware of his inner thoughts.
But after learning that he was Jiang Wenlin's grandson, it wasn't surprising at all that he had just said those words.
"Will you come back often in the future?" An Songxiang asked with great curiosity.
An Songyu couldn't help but look over as well.
According to her memory, she had never heard of this matter before her rebirth!
"Of course I'm coming back!" Jiang Guoan nodded without hesitation. "Jiang Village is even more lively than Nanshi now!"
"I heard there was a big banquet for the whole village last time?"
"Unfortunately, I didn't have time to get back!"
"Are you that busy? The last village feast was on a Sunday. My cousins are studying in Nanshi, and they were able to come back!" An Songxiang asked in confusion.
At the same time, she couldn't help but look at An Songyu, after all, when An Songyu was studying in Nanshi, it seemed like he could come back every week!
Jiang Guoan leaned back in his chair, looking utterly dejected: "That's because besides being a good student, I also have to be a good kid!"
The siblings didn't quite understand the details.
Just from his words, the group could imagine the hardship of a rich second-generation being forced to inherit the family business.
For a moment, none of the three knew how to continue the questioning.
Jiang Guoan didn't seem inclined to continue the conversation on this topic either!
Is he going to say that his parents not only hope he studies well, but also hope he can inherit the family business well?
So from the time he started college, he was busy with his studies.
Whenever he has free time, he has to go and learn about his family's business.
When it comes to this matter, Jiang Guoan feels utterly powerless.
As the only child of his parents, even though his parents are not very old, there are some things they cannot completely let go of.
Even his university major was chosen for him by his parents based on the needs of the family business.
In summary...
His life from childhood to adulthood seemed to have been completely arranged by his parents.
That's why he's so interested in anything that can be freed from his parents' control.
But before that, his father still missed Jiangcun, where he had gone to great lengths to seize the opportunity to leave.
However, he did not think it would take too long for him to find a suitable time.
Even when the demolition was just starting, his father didn't think that the Jiangcun people who suddenly became rich would necessarily be able to achieve anything.
Until now...
