Su Jin looked at the kind smile on the old man's face, but she felt cold all over. She held his right hand tightly, her expression calm.
"This is Elder Xin!" Lu Shiyi introduced Su Jin. "He lives in Courtyard 4 in the South District."
Su Jin looked at Old Xin and found that he was indeed an old man with a kind face but a wicked heart.
The Hu family's superior is the Xin family, and even the Ma family's integrity is concentrated on the Xin family.
"How long have you been back, Shi Yi? Come to my house when you have time." Old Xin looked at Lu Shiyi and said.
Lu Shiyi shook his head: "Mr. Xin, we have more than 20 days of vacation this time. The house we were allocated in the imperial capital is not yet ready, and my wife and I need to buy some things."
The corners of Xin Lao's mouth curled up slightly, and he nodded with a smile: "Next time you go home, it would be good to come to my house and sit down. Your grandfather and I are old comrades, and the relationship between our two families is very harmonious.
"Mr. Xin, let's go for a walk first. We'll have to go back to take care of the children later." Lu Shiyi exchanged a few words with Mr. Xin, then left holding Su Jin's hand.
Old Xin looked at the backs of the young couple and sighed with a hint of regret. None of his children were as ambitious as he was, otherwise he would not have thought of retreating.
Su Jin continued strolling with Lu Shiyi. She glanced at him and saw that they were getting farther away from Mr. Xin, and she relaxed completely.
"Ayi, is that Old Xin? I feel nervous when I see her smile." Su Jin whispered to Lu Shiyi.
Lu Shiyi pinched her little face and said, "Mr. Xin always has a fake smile on his face."
After the young couple took a walk in the yard, many people were surprised by Su Jin's appearance. Lu Shiyi's vision was indeed high. She had outstanding appearance and ability.
The girls in the courtyard were ready to watch a show, and they thought Su Jin was not a match for Lu Shiyi.
Now, when they heard that Lu Shiyi was taking a walk with his wife, they all changed into their newly bought clothes and asked their best friends to go for a walk together.
Nearing eight o'clock, Lu Shiyi accompanied Su Jin home, and Lu Bairen strolled back and forth with Hanhan in his arms, trying to coax Hanhan to sleep early.
"Grandpa, I'll coax Hanhan to sleep. It's time for you to sleep too." Lu Shiyi persuaded Lu Bairen.
According to the old couple's schedule, they should go to bed at 9:30 on time. Now, for Hanhan, they directly delayed their bedtime.
"Ayi, the old couple will take care of Hanhan today. You two should go back quickly. It's a rare opportunity to take care of him." Du Ruo also felt that the old couple could take good care of him. "Besides, doesn't Hanhan fall asleep at nine o'clock and wake up in the morning?"
"Grandma, Hanhan will easily look for Xiaojin when he goes to bed at night." Lu Shiyi was worried that Hanhan would disturb the two elders' sleep. "Let us take Hanhan to familiarize himself with the environment today. If he doesn't make a fuss at night, can you take care of him tomorrow?"
The two elders looked at each other. Lu Shiyi insisted that they should also look forward to taking care of the two children tomorrow.
"Hanhan, great-grandfather and great-grandmother will see you tomorrow, be good!" Lu Bairen coaxed Hanhan in a low voice.
Su Jin took Hanhan from Lu Bairen's hands, and the little guy smiled in her arms.
"You are still my parents. The brat has been making a fuss since you two left." Du Ruo said cheerfully, "You two should get some rest. There is a babysitter at home."
"Grandpa, grandma, you should have a good rest." Su Jin said softly while holding Hanhan.
Lu Shiyi sent the two elders back to their room. Lu Bairen calmed down after entering the room. Lu Shiyi told the two elders about his meeting with Mr. Xin outside.
"He must have heard you were waiting outside, so he went to wait for you." Lu Bairen looked at Lu Shiyi and said, "The Xin family has been trying to win over many people in the past few years."
Lu Shiyi sat on the sofa beside him, listening to Lu Bairen talking about the situations of the various families in the courtyard. The Xin family was the leader, while the other families had been living in seclusion.
"The situation in the academy is unstable right now. All parties can maintain a balance for now. If you lean towards one side when talking outside, it might upset the balance." Lu Bairen reminded Lu Shiyi to be careful. "Xiao Jin might have entered the sights of many people. With the books sent back at the end of the year, Xiao Jin should enter the sight of the person above. You... must work hard to prevent anyone from taking action against Xiao Jin."
Lu Bairen's words made Lu Shiyi ponder. The book he had sent before had asked GA's people to raise Su Jin's security level to level two. It was estimated that if more books were sent by the end of the year, her own security level would have to be increased.
"Ayi, do the higher-ups want you to stay with Su Jin? Do they want you to be responsible for her safety?" Du Ruo asked.
Lu Shiyi nodded and explained the above situation one by one. The people from GA arranged two teams to send the information that Su Jin submitted this year to the farm.
"After delivering this half of the information, I will probably have to send another team of people to protect Xiaojin's safety when I return." Lu Shiyi told Lu Bairen and Du Ruo truthfully.
When the two old men heard Lu Shiyi mention Su Jin's family, and even talked about the situation of Su Jin's maternal grandparents, the outside environment made these people dare not reveal the situation of their own family.
"My dear, I remember someone mentioned Mr. Qin. It seems that Xiao Jin's foreigner should be working under Mr. Qin." Lu Bairen had heard Mr. Qin mention his subordinates.
They have a serious job dealing with external affairs, and in their spare time, they also translate materials.
"Ayi, Xiaojin has resigned now. Have you ever considered letting her go back to work?" Lu Bairen reminded Lu Shiyi, "If Xiaojin doesn't have an outside job, there's a high chance she'll be targeted."
"Grandpa, when Hanhan is older, I'll let Xiaojin go out to work again," Lu Shiyi told him about the discussion the couple had had. "Plus, the situation on the farm is constantly changing, and the students at school are getting emotionally provoked. Sister Yunfeng also resigned."
The old couple looked at the situation in the imperial capital and thought that Su Jin's opinion was correct.
