"That's right!" Li Lin stood up and saw Chen Siyuan out.
Immediately afterwards, Deputy County Mayor Liu and Deputy County Mayor Wang came in one after another and both made solemn statements to Li Lin, promising not to let Li Lin down.
Although they both held the title of deputy county chief in Shannan County, they had never had the opportunity to display their talents.
Li Lin's reuse of them made them feel like they had met a mentor and they were very excited.
Yanjing.
Xu Wen's home.
She spent the whole day regretting why she said those words to Li Lin last night?
She almost couldn't help but tell Li Lin that she was actually the daughter of a ministerial-level leader, a second-generation official...
But when she thought of Li Lin's expression after hearing this fact, she couldn't bear to do it and lost her courage.
At this moment, she was wearing pajamas, sitting on the sofa, silently peeling fruit. She looked dazed, and it was obvious that her mind was at a standstill.
Her mother Qi Huijun came over and asked with a smile, "My dear daughter, do you miss your boyfriend?"
Xu Wen recovered, a blush appeared on her face, and she denied it, "No, he doesn't even miss me, why would I miss him?"
As a person who has experienced this, Qi Huijun knows how it feels to miss someone, so she smiled and counseled, "Wenwen, a man should focus on his career. Only when he works well can your family be happy in the future. Think about it, if a man has trouble doing anything all day, can he smile at you when he comes home? Li Lin is still young, and you should focus on your work and lay a solid foundation for building your own little family in the future."
Xu Wen disagreed and said, "Mom, your idea is too vulgar, isn't it? Doesn't the happiness of Li Lin and I in the future depend on the quality of our relationship? Why is it related to our respective jobs? I think if he didn't have a job, we could probably live happily... After all, I love him very much, and he loves me too..."
Before she finished speaking, Xu Wen realized that she had exposed her personal feelings too thoroughly in front of her mother. She blushed instantly and lowered her head to continue peeling fruit to hide her inner shyness.
Qi Huijun smiled and said, "You are idealistic. I am talking about real life. Everything must be built on a material basis. Although our family can ignore the influence of material things, if a man has no ambition, it is like a lion without fertility. He will not be interested in anything. Tell me, do you prefer a man full of energy or one who is always groaning in front of you?"
Xu Wen pouted, "Of course I want a lively one..."
Qi Huijun nodded Xu Wen's head lovingly and said, "That's right. You should support his career, don't belittle him, don't blame him. Sometimes, keeping a proper distance between two people can prolong the shelf life of love."
Xu Wen leaned in Qi Huijun's arms obediently, like a little girl who never grew up, "Well, I understand."
Qi Huijun stroked her hair and sighed, "That being said, I sincerely hope that you won't be too far away from us after you get married... Look at your brother, he hasn't been seen for a whole year... How can he be so careless? Doesn't he know that there are people at home who miss him all the time? Doesn't he know to come back and see me and your father? Oh... I spoiled him..."
Seeing her mother sad, Xu Wen quickly comforted her, "Mom, no, it's not your fault. My dad is too strict with my brother. Plus, my brother and my sister-in-law don't get along and he doesn't want to see her, so he has been hiding away from home... I think my brother is very filial. When my dad blamed him, he never said a word in rebuttal. He also often sent you some gifts... All this shows that my brother always cares about our family..."
Qi Huijun sighed, "Because he misses me, I feel so worried and always think about him... I don't know what he is doing in Hanjiang and how he is doing."
Xu Wen quickly smiled and said, "Mom, I'm also in Hanjiang. I'll go back after the New Year. I'll help you keep an eye on my brother and report to you at any time."
Seeing Xu Wen's naughty look, Qi Huijun smiled kindly.
