However, there are problems inside and outside.
The world today is no longer the same as it was when the Han family had the final say.
The Han family's giant ship has been heading in the wrong direction, but the waves are so huge and the resistance of wind and rain is so strong that no one in the Han family can change the direction of this giant ship.
Han Ju, whom he once had high hopes for, ultimately failed to do what Han Hongde hoped.
Now the Luo family is no longer on the same page with them...
There are things to do inside and outside the house, and nothing goes smoothly.
Han Hongde felt even more exhausted.
"Han Chen, you have to be careful about everything when you are in Dongjiang. Now everyone in the Han family has to be on high alert and must not be caught by outsiders," Han Hongde taught him.
"Yes, Grandpa," Han Chen replied politely.
Although Han Chen had the matter of Zhou Mo in his heart and wanted to have a good talk with his grandfather Han Hongde, the current situation was obviously not the best time.
There is a problem in the Han family, but no one can find out where the problem lies. It seems that everyone has some problems, but none of them seem to be serious.
But right now, Han Haojie is ill, Han Ju is giving up his power, Han Chi and Yan Yi's marriage is still undecided, Han Ji and Ai Zhiyin are facing marital problems, the relationship between the Han and Luo families has suddenly cooled, and Han Chen's marriage to Zhou Mo has never been recognized by the Han family...
Talking about any of them is a headache.
Even Han Chen himself felt that if he were Han Hongde, he would probably get upset when he heard the word "Zhou Mo".
After all, there are too many things to worry about.
The lunch was not interesting at all.
During the dinner, Han Hongde asked Han Jue many questions, all about Han Jue's work.
This is a rare moment when Han Hongde cares about Han Jue.
Because he is not a biological member of the Han family, Han Jue has always been an insignificant existence in the Han family. In Han Hongde's opinion, the brothers of Han Chen's generation will naturally be ranked according to their closeness.
Because they have no blood relationship, Han Jue is naturally the least valued one.
"Dingce, your job is very important. You have worked in the political and legal field of the imperial capital for the longest time in your life. You must do a good job." Han Hongde warned.
"I will," Han Jue answered respectfully, then he looked at Han Ji, "Grandpa, my second brother has returned to his official career now, you should feel more at ease."
Han Hongde looked at Han Ji, then glanced at Ai Zhiyin. He simply said "hmm" without any further response.
The strange and silent attitude made everyone present unable to figure out what Han Hongde's attitude was.
Previously, Han Hongde was clearly very optimistic about Han Ji's decision to leave university and enter the official career, but it seems that his attitude today is not as enthusiastic as before.
Han Hongde's eyes turned and moved his gaze to Han Jue, "Dingce, how old are you this year?"
Han Jue was stunned for a moment, "Thirty-one."
Han Hongde's eyes were far away. "They say a man is established at the age of thirty. You've already passed that mark this year."
Han Jue: "Well, I'm not good at making decisions."
Han Hongde: "Don't be so modest. You've done very well. I've heard your father tell you about your battles with your competitors. You were calm and experienced, and you were able to eliminate the enemy from the bottom of the problem and defeat them with a single move. Your personality is quite good, very similar to me when I was young."
Han Jue: "Thank you for the compliment, Grandpa."
Han Hongde: "Have you had any colleagues you get along with recently, or a girl you like?"
Han Jue glanced at Han Qi and saw Han Qi shook his head slightly. Han Jue pursed his lips and said, "No."
Han Hongde smiled and asked, "Luo Fu doesn't count?"
Han Jue felt a chill down his spine.
Han Hongde: "Don't hide it from me, I know everything. Otherwise I wouldn't let you go to the Luo family."
Han is determined to play the drums.
Han Hongde asked calmly, "You and Luo Fu have frequent private interactions, don't you?"
Han Jue clenched his hands slightly on his knees. He didn't know why Han Hongde asked this, and he didn't know what the correct response should be.
After his brain raced, Han Jue realized that lying was meaningless and he could only tell the truth.
But to be honest, that's what makes people more nervous.
"Grandpa, I didn't mean to go against you, nor did I mean to get close to Miss Luo, nor did I mean to knock Han Chen or Fourth Brother's corner. I..."
"I didn't say you did anything wrong, nor did I want to blame you. I've known what kind of child you are over the years. I just wanted to ask about your situation," Han Hongde said, "You're all grown up now, and you didn't even discuss such a big thing as getting married with your family, but secretly got a marriage certificate with someone else." His eyes swept over Han Chen indifferently as he spoke.
Han Chen felt a little embarrassed for a moment.
Han Hongde added: "Make a plan. If you see a girl you like, seize the opportunity."
Han Jue didn't understand Han Hongde's thoughts, so he could only respond nervously, "I know, Grandpa."
Han Hongde: "Don't blame me for being long-winded. This is just the problem when you get old."
Han Jue: "No."
Han Hongde said, "Eat, it's important to eat."
However, Han Jue had no taste for this meal at all.
He couldn't guess the intention of Han Hongde's question during the meal, nor could he figure out Han Hongde's attitude towards his frequent private contacts with Luo Fu.
This was the first time that he, who had always been calm and composed, encountered such an unpredictable situation.
Lunch is over.
The elders who should leave should leave, and those who should go upstairs should go upstairs.
Ai Zhiyin coaxed Han Haoxuan, who was clamoring for sleepiness, to sleep, and went downstairs to the kitchen to see if everything was cleaned up after the meal.
As soon as I entered the kitchen, I saw a man standing in front of the sink. He rolled up his sleeves and rinsed the dishes under the faucet.
"Decide?" Ai Zhiyin asked in surprise, "Why are you washing dishes? Where's Mrs. Liu?"
"She's been very tired recently because of the New Year holiday, so I told her to go and rest." Han Jue washed the dishes and put them in the dryer, then turned around and said with a smile, "Second sister-in-law, you should go and rest too. You've been busy with all the housework, and you're really tired."
"We're just getting started," Ai Zhiyin smiled, taking the apron beside her and handing it to him. "Put it on, and be careful not to get your clothes dirty."
Han Jue took it and said, "I thought you would be polite to me and not let me wash it, so you do it yourself."
Ai Zhiyin: "It's rare to see a man from the Han family in the kitchen. Shouldn't I pay him a proper visit?"
Han Jue's face turned a little red. Ai Zhiyin's words made him look like a rare animal.
Ai Zhiyin asked: "Do you know how to tie an apron?"
Han Jue: "Yeah."
Ai Zhiyin didn't intervene. She stood at the door with her arms folded, continuing to stare at Han Jue.
Han Jue tied on his apron, turned his back and continued washing the dishes.
Fortunately, the sink was against the wall, so he didn't have to face Ai Zhiyin's gaze as if she was looking at a giant panda in the zoo.
"Don't forget to disinfect after drying," Ai Zhiyin reminded.
"knew."
"Besides 'I know,' is that the only word you can say?" Ai Zhiyin said playfully, "You're like that when you talk to Grandpa, too. You always reply 'I know,' to whatever he says."
