Chapter 216
Lin Wei's outfit was carefully prepared. She originally wanted to wear the clothes she left home with, but they were too ugly. She couldn't dress like a country bumpkin when she returned home.
She was wearing the white sweater her mother knitted for her underneath, and a black cashmere coat on the outside, paired with little boots, perfect.
On the way, I heard the receptionist say that the old couple had always insisted that they were mistaken, and that their daughter could not have such great abilities. To prove it, she also told them many of Lin Wei's glorious deeds when she was a child, including but not limited to pouring hot water. Flowers, braised meat and fish, pretending to be a hen to lay eggs, and chicken poop slices as snacks...
After hearing this, Lin Wei immediately got angry. Doesn't this give them a little shock from the old girl?
Lin Hanzhi's tears were still half shed. She stared at the brightly smiling woman in front of her and reached out to her wife beside her: "This girl looks like our Tangtang, so beautiful..." "
What does it look like? This Isn't it our Tangtang? Yes, that's right..." Fang Lianxin said with tears in his eyes, but nervously grabbed Lin Hanzhi's hand and didn't dare to step forward to confirm, for fear that it was a dream.
They had fantasized about this scene countless times in their dreams, fearing that it would burst as soon as they caught it, leaving only endless emptiness and waiting when they woke up.
"It's true..." Lin Wei's eyes were filled with tears. She walked towards them and stretched out her hands to hug the two stiff people tightly. "You really don't remember me? I am Tangtang..." She closed her mouth Eyes, tears slipped from the corners of the eyes, with a slightly astringent coolness.
She is Tangtang, she is Fang Yantang, and they are their daughter. But when she realized all this, it was a long separation. The swaying boat on the sea sent her to the other shore. This separation lasted more than ten years.
At that time, she felt that God was extremely cruel to her.
"Tangtang...my Tangtang is back," Lin Hanzhi stretched out her hand and hugged Lin Wei tightly, crying suddenly, "I knew, I knew I could live until this day, God, oh... God " Her spasmodic fingers clenched together and patted her daughter's back. All the worries and fears over the years turned into "God", as if all the suffering was worth it. As long as she could see her daughter again, she would not complain or complain. regret.
Lin Wei burst into tears: "It's my fault, it's all my fault, I came back late."
Listening to her mother's cries, her internal organs were burning, and guilt overflowed throughout her body.
It would have been nice if she had not left. If she could stay with her parents, they wouldn't be sad and scared. She would definitely protect them well.
Fang Lianxin's eyes were burning with pain, and he said with a smile: "Look at you two, you are so happy to cry like this, it's a joke." Even though he said this, he still refused to hold his wife and daughter's arms. release.
I have gone through more than half of my life, and for the first time, I have experienced the joys and sorrows of the world so deeply. I have encountered catastrophes, and the past of more than ten years of humiliation is full of darkness. Now only the joy of being together is left.
"This is a big happy event. It's normal to be happy. Who can laugh at this?"
"Yes, it happens to everyone. The eldest son of mine has been in the countryside for so many years, and her mother Qian'er also broke down in tears. "
The neighbors also helped to smooth things over.
Lin Hanzhi cried for a while and felt embarrassed. After calming down, she grabbed Lin Wei and started to look up and down. She still couldn't help crying sadly: "Why are you still so thin?"
Lin Wei hurriedly wiped her tears: "I'm fine, haven't you noticed that I've grown taller?" She is now 166 (165.5). In this day and age, who can look tall and tall wearing high heels?
"Yes, it's high, it's high." Fang Lianxin agreed happily. No matter how happy the old girl seemed, he could raise such a good daughter.
The life assistant now brought Lin Wei a new piece of clothing. The thin outer shirt was more suitable for indoor wear.
Lin Wei took off her coat, which was stained with tears and snot, and held a corner of it in disgust and handed it to her assistant, with a look of disgust on her face, as if she was holding a rag.
Before Lin Hanzhi could recover from her sad mood, she raised her eyes and saw this scene. She was so angry and funny that she stepped forward and pinched Lin Wei's arm: "Damn girl, it's this death scene again." This girl is exactly the same as before. , has not changed at all.
"Oh, what are you doing..." Lin Wei rubbed her arms and complained, "Why are you still pinching me? Is it my biological mother?"
"Stepmother, you picked it up," Lin Hanzhi said harsh words, but she couldn't bear it. I can't stop arranging her hair. "She has had a lot of problems since she was a child. She already knew she was stinky when she was less than two years old. She won't stretch out her arms when she doesn't like the clothes. She must wear small flowers. If you raise one, you will almost kill the whole family. She is a debt collector." "
Lin Wei had just changed her clothes and saw an embroidered tulip on the lapel of her clothes. She immediately pulled it over to compare with Lin Hanzhi and said with a smile, "Look, it's beautiful."
Lin Hanzhi couldn't help feeling sour again. This was really her daughter. Yes, I can’t even change it. I love to act like a coquettish girl.
The three of them were reminiscing about old times and chatting, but the others looked at the group of people pouring in behind Lin Wei. There were men and women, all wearing black woolen coats. Each of them was carrying two suitcases in their hands, neatly and orderly. Entering the room, everyone walked to different places, some went to the kitchen, and some went to the study. Bedroom.
"Do you know which room is Mr. Lin's room?" asked the young woman in white clothes.
She was Lin Wei's life assistant, so she didn't want to disturb Mr. Lin's parents, so she asked other people.
"The one on the left on the second floor." Lin Hanzhi replied subconsciously after hearing this. As a result, she suddenly saw a group of people in the room, and some people were carrying several large boxes in.
What is this for?
The neighbors watched these people go to the kitchen, then put on white gloves and take out kitchen utensils one by one. Except for pots, pans, condiments, many of the rest were unknown, including boxy ones (microwave ovens). ), there are cylindrical ones with lids (rice cookers), and the large rectangular box that opens up reveals a cabinet as tall as a person. I don’t know what it is used for, but it looks very expensive.
Lin Wei brought a lot of entourage with her, including chefs, cleaners, craftsmen, caregivers, family doctors... just in case of emergencies.
They each performed their duties and began to clean and tidy up, changing carpets, curtains, tablecloths, sheets and bedding.
Because there were people in the hall, these people didn't move much.
Lin Wei started to give gifts. She didn't know that there was anyone else at home, but she still prepared some in advance. The woman gave perfume and silk scarf, and the man gave a wallet and lighter.
Everyone couldn't put it down when they got this exquisite thing in their hands.
Not practical, but very popular. In the current era of material scarcity, everyone respects this kind of thing even more.
The high-end lighter also has a flip-top lid. If you take it back, you won't be able to break it because of envy.
"Girl Lin, what does this Xiangjiang look like?" The neighbor imitated Lin Wei and tied a silk scarf around her wrist, sprayed a little bit of perfume, and smelled it tightly. Looking at the other party's dress from head to toe, she was really beautiful and exquisite indescribably. , as if they were not from the same era.
"I can't say. You will know when you go there later. Xiangjiang is an island city, and Beijing is inland. There is a big difference."
"When will that happen?" Everyone was disappointed and couldn't get out now. , Lin Wei was able to come back only because of her distinguished status and took the green channel.
"Are all people in Xiangjiang rich?" someone asked again.
Lin Wei smiled and said: "No, I'm lucky, so I made a little money. Maybe there are more opportunities in Xiangjiang now, but I think there will definitely be more opportunities in Beijing in the future. We don't need to envy the outside world."
Fang Lian Xin looked at his daughter who spoke well and was filled with joy. She had really grown up.
What Lin Wei said was true, but few people present believed it. Mainly because for a moment, Lin Wei had such a strong impact on people. She brought so many subordinates, but her subordinates were all dressed better than ordinary people. Well, everyone is well-dressed, and there are foreigners among them.
It's illegal to hire workers in the mainland. I can't believe what Xiangjiang looks like.
Everyone was very curious about Xiangjiang and had endless questions. They asked her how she made money and even what was in the kitchen just now.
Lin Hanzhi saw that her daughter was a little troubled, and quickly made an excuse to pack her things and invite everyone to visit another day.
Everyone then dispersed, reluctant to leave one by one, wishing to take another look at him so that he could have material to chat with when he went back.
After they left, Lin Wei, who was sitting on the sofa, threw herself into Lin Hanzhi's arms and started chirping: "Mom... I miss you so much. Do you miss me?"
Lin Hanzhi stroked her hair gently, She smiled and said, "You little girl, you're so old, and you're still acting like a spoiled brat."
"I've never grown up," Lin Wei muttered as she rubbed herself in her arms, "I have a mother, so I don't have to grow up."
Lin Hanzhi had a sore nose . After a while, he gave her two gentle blows on the back: "What did you say to make me cry again."
Fang Lianxin turned his head and wiped the wet corners of his eyes.
These days it feels so much like a dream.
At this time, the housekeeper made new tea, and the rich aroma of tea attracted his attention.
"I brought this tea from Taiwan," Lin Wei immediately sat up and poured tea for them, "Dad, you can give some to your friends, and I will ask them to set up your study room."
Fang Lianxin stood aside and watched . The housekeeper is not used to being served like this.
"Where do all these people live?" Their small building cannot accommodate these people.
"The guest houses nearby have been arranged, and there are only five people staying at home."
These people had been staying at the Mid-Levels Villa before. She wanted to have someone to take care of her parents after they were taken over, so she brought them over this time to let them get familiar with each other. , usually she doesn’t have so many people waiting on her.
"We can't use these people."
"Yes," Lin Wei handed the tea to Fang Lianxin and said with a puffed mouth, "My mother used to be a eldest lady. What's wrong with having more people to take care of her?"
One sentence was direct Fang Lianxin was left speechless.
Lin Hanzhi actually felt that there were too many people. She was no longer a wealthy young lady, but her daughter cared about her so much that she didn't want to spoil the fun.
"Did you just come back on your own?" Lin Hanzhi was more concerned about another question, "Didn't you bring the child back?"
Child?
Lin Wei was stunned: "What kid?"
"You're not married?" Lin Hanzhi said unexpectedly, "You're almost thirty, aren't you married yet?"
"I'm not getting married," Lin Wei picked up the cup and took a sip. Xiangcha, "Why are you getting married? Find a man to share my property with. Why can't I think about it so hard?"
"Ouch..." Lin Hanzhi was so angry that she wanted to hit someone again. Why did this girl look like this?
Lin Wei looked silly and happy, picking up the preserved fruits on the coffee table and eating them: "You guys want to ask Song Ye, he can't come back for the time being. In fact, he misses you too. It was me who stopped him from coming back. He still has things to do in Xiangjiang. You and I can see him when we get there. Song Ye has changed a lot now and has become a big official."
She took the mango stick and put it in her mouth. I noticed that the expressions of the two people opposite me changed.
"What's your... relationship now?" Fang Lianxin asked tentatively.
Lin Wei's cheeks turned red and she said a little shyly: "Just... just ordinary friends."
Fang Lian gently patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, we don't have anyone to talk to. Just be ordinary friends. Qian Don’t have any deep friendship.”
Huh?
Lin Wei was stunned.
Lin Hanzhi saw something was wrong, but she didn't expose it and told Song Ye's story.
"This child is so scheming, and he can do such a heavy hand to his adoptive father. Your father is right, he is not suitable for close friendship. Stay away from him in the future."
Fang Lianxin nodded: "The intention was not right. I was I was mistaken. Fortunately, nothing happened now. Please be careful in the future. "
Ah...
Lin Wei was confused, how did they know about it.
"No... you have misunderstood. His adoptive father was very bad to him and... beat him," Lin Wei carefully considered her words and explained, "That was actually an accident. When he was struggling, his adoptive father fell into the well. , He told me, I really can’t blame him for this.”
“Even if this is the case, what is his intention in finding our family?” Lin Hanzhi disagreed, “We are not unreasonable. But you should never have a close relationship with someone who has ulterior motives and is scheming all day long. You never know when he will stab someone in the back. "
Lin Wei didn't know what to say. She had forgiven Song Ye, but she couldn't forgive her parents. After all, they were both. They all treated Song Ye sincerely, especially Fang Lianxin. He really devoted all his efforts to teach Song Ye and took care of his food, clothing, housing and transportation. Naturally, they would be unhappy after being deceived.
Oh, forget it, she doesn't care, let Song Ye solve it by himself when the time comes, she can at most help play the drums, let's leave it alone for now, she doesn't want to piss off the old couple as soon as they meet.
Lin Wei said "Ah", stood up suddenly and said, "Whatever do you want to eat tonight, I will show you my skills today and try my cooking."
As soon as she said this, Fang Lianxin's face turned green.
Lin Hanzhi couldn't help but feel a chill down her spine. Can she eat the food cooked by the old girl?
For the first time, the two of them hoped that their daughter would not be so filial. It was too unpalatable, and what if the kitchen exploded.
"What are you looking at? You two are looking down on me, and I have to do it for you today." Lin Wei was so angry that she rolled up her sleeves and walked to the kitchen.
She usually doesn't cook easily, but her skills are still there. Although she is not as good as a Michelin chef, she can still be the executive chef of a five-star hotel. She has built muscles in her arms in her last life, and she is quite powerful.
Lin Hanzhi wanted to persuade her, mainly because she was afraid that she would waste ingredients. She just saw that they brought in a lot of expensive ingredients, such as a large ham, frozen goods, white truffle caviar, etc. The packaging was not cheap.
"Ah——"
A scream suddenly came from upstairs, and then a black thing was seen running down from upstairs.
Lin Wei happened to face the "visitor" and was startled.
A big raccoon flower arched its back and huffed at Lin Wei, looking overly frightened.
"Where did the wild cat come from?" Lin Wei was stunned.
As a result, the next second, she saw her mother running over, looking extremely distressed, hugging Da Li Hua, and crying sweetly.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Be good, Xiaofu. That's my sister, not a bad person." Lin Wei was completely stunned.
When
did she want her third child?
I also got a cat, which was really unexpected.
In the end, Fang Lianxin also came over to comfort Da Lihua, his distressed expression was palpable: "There are too many people in the family, Xiaofu is even scared."
Lin Wei: "..."
What should I do if I suddenly feel a desolate feeling of being out of favor?
She turned silently and went to the kitchen to digest the bad news alone.
Since ancient times, cats, the little goblins, have been masters in competing for favors, especially their ability to capture the elderly, which humans simply cannot match.
It seems like we need to put in a lot of effort today.
Lin Wei took the pen and paper and started writing today's menu.
The old couple was holding the cat and peeking uneasily outside. Seeing this situation, they became more and more confused: "Do you still need to use pen and paper for cooking?"
Fang Lianxin told his wife: "If it tastes bad in a while, be sure to eat it." Hold it in, don't make her cry, it's rare to have this kind of intention."
"To put it in your words," Lin Hanzhi smoothed Xiaofu's hair and said, "Look at how powerful your sister is, and how well she holds the knife..."
Before she could finish her words, Lin Wei was shocked by the movement of holding the knife and flowers.
Others in the kitchen started washing and preparing dishes and seasonings according to the menu written by Lin Wei.
Lin Wei raised the knife and lowered it to dismantle the backbone of the fish. The thickness was even, the knife skills were meticulous, and her hands were as good as jade. The angle of the knife was precise and artistic, as if she had practiced it tens of thousands of times.
Lin Wei didn't cry, but Lin Hanzhi couldn't help but blush again.
"How much suffering has she suffered outside?" Lin Hanzhi covered her mouth.
The joy came so suddenly that she didn't have time to think about this question. How did their pampered daughter become the richest man that everyone envied? Why can she cook so skillfully now?
They didn't want to believe it, and more importantly they couldn't imagine what she had gone through.
As long as you think about it deeply, countless terrible imaginations will emerge. How did a sixteen-year-old girl get to where she is now in an unfamiliar place?
Success is never easy.
Lin Wei didn't know that they thought so much. They were working hard in the kitchen, and finally cooked a large table of dishes.
The family of three sat down and enjoyed a delicious meal.
She slept with her mother at night and talked a lot about herself, asked about her parents, and talked a lot about her time in Hong Kong.
Lin Wei had never been so happy and satisfied for a long, long time, not even in her previous life...
The only regret was that there was one person missing.
...
" Regarding the allocation of ships, does Ms. Lin have any inclinations?"
The local government is arguing, and they even come over to ask someone to inquire. Every day, they receive weak calls. They have not made up their minds yet. Lin Wei also brought technology. The staff came over and taught them how to operate, and they were very thoughtful.
At this time, they naturally wanted to ask Lin Wei's opinion. What if they wanted to leave more ships for their hometown?
Lin Wei did not refuse after hearing this, and said: "If it is convenient, can we build two ships for Langfeng?"
Lin Wei's suggestion surprised everyone present.
Langfeng is a shipyard in Xiamen. How did Lin Wei know this?
Lin Wei's clear eyes curved into a crescent moon, and she said with a smile: "My brother works there." This was her selfishness.
Ah...
Only then did everyone remember that Lin Wei had an older brother. Because she never mentioned it, they thought their relationship was not good?
I was told not to tell the other party yet.
"I want to send it to him personally." Lin Wei added.
Fang Mobai has a job now and it is not convenient to come to Beijing. Lin Wei's plan is to take his parents there and give him a big surprise after everything here is settled.
I don’t know what this stupid guy has become.
She also misses her brother so much, the brother who is not so smart, but is sincere, fiery, down-to-earth and reliable.
She wanted him to know that she had really bought Harland & Wolff Shipbuilding.
She didn't lie to him, Xiangjiang was really, really... beautiful.
