Chapter 1037: The strange blood relationship
Gu Deyu said, "It's your dad. He said he's been anxious lately and wanted to call you to hear your voice."
"My dad?"
When Tang Min heard what Gu De said, his expression suddenly became serious.
She was thinking in her heart, what should she say if Lin Jinshun asked about Lin Yongqiang.
Just as he was thinking about it, Gu Deyu had already handed the phone to Lin Jinshun.
"Xiao Min, I'm your dad."
Lin Jinshun's voice came over.
Tang Min regained his composure and tried to speak in a relaxed tone, "Dad, how have you been lately?
Are you used to working in a restaurant? "
Lin Jinshun said, "It's a habit. I'm fine. Now that it's cold, I don't eat much. I just help your mother-in-law and the others clean up in the restaurant. It's very relaxing."
"That's good. The weather is cold so you should wear more clothes. If you don't have any clothes to wear, go buy yourself a cotton coat so you don't get cold. It's not very convenient for me to send you clothes."
Tang Min felt that when Lin Jinshun called this time, his voice sounded much louder. He no longer sounded timid and lifeless like before.
"Yes, I have clothes. You came back from collecting herbs two days ago and gave me a cotton coat. It's very warm."
"That's good."
Tang Min didn't know what to say, she was always afraid that if she said too much she would reveal the truth.
"Well, Xiao Min..." Lin Jinshun seemed to have something to ask, but he hesitated.
When Tang Min heard this, her heart suddenly skipped a beat. She took the phone, stood up, walked into the house, and said, "Huh?
Dad, what's wrong?
"What has your brother been doing lately?
Have you seen him?
Lin Jinshun inquired.
Tang Min sighed inwardly, what was supposed to come finally came.
I'm afraid that, as father and son are connected by heart, Lin Jinshun, who was back home, had a premonition of something, so he called her.
She sat down on the bedside and said evasively, "He...he should be working."
Lin Jinshun sighed, his voice particularly helpless, "He hasn't called me for a long time. I sent him a pager but he didn't reply. I don't know what he does all day. It seems like he hasn't contacted me for nearly a month. I'm really worried about him."
Tang Min could only think of ways to comfort him, "Dad, don't worry, he's fine, he's just busy with work and working the night shift, so he sleeps all day."
"Why do you keep working the night shift?
He told me before that he was in charge of dozens of people, which made him a small leader, so why was he still working so hard? "
Lin Jinshun was puzzled and asked.
If I were in my hometown, I would be a big boss if I could manage dozens of people. All I have to do is talk. How could I work night shifts all night long and be so tired that I don’t even have time to make a phone call?
Hearing this, Tang Min pretended to be angry and disdained Lin Yongqiang, "Dad, don't listen to him, how can he be capable of managing people?
It's almost like people care about him. He just wants to brag to you because he doesn't want you to worry. He works very hard and goes to sleep when he's tired every day."
At this time, the more she belittled Lin Yongqiang, the more Lin Jinshun believed her words.
As expected, Lin Jinshun replied with concern, "Xiao Min, tell him that I don't want to live in a building, and I don't want his money. As long as he can support himself, don't let him work too hard."
The last time Lin Yongqiang called him, he said that once he became successful in the city and bought a house, he would take him to the city to enjoy a good life.
When Lin Jinshun heard Tang Min's words, he thought that Lin Yongqiang was working day and night to earn money in order to buy a house.
As a father, he naturally felt heartbroken.
Tang Min was "angry" and blamed, "Dad, don't spoil him. He's such a big boy, he should suffer a little. It's because I spoiled him too much in the past that he became so lazy. You take care of yourself at home. When he has a day off, I'll ask him to call you back."
"Okay, as long as he's safe, it's fine. It's okay to endure hardships."
After Lin Jinshun finished speaking, he was worried and confirmed again, "Xiao Min, is Yongqiang really okay?"
"Dad, what can I do?"
Tang Min complained impatiently, "Why do you always have random thoughts when you're at home?
How about I let my daughter buy you the ticket, and you come to Bincheng to see him?"
Lin Jinshun could tell that Tang Min's words were full of blame, so he chuckled, "That's not necessary. I'd rather stay in my hometown. If I go to the city, I won't be able to understand what people are saying. I won't know where to go, and it will be embarrassing for you."
Tang Min advised, "Then don't let your mind wander. Chat with the guests who come to eat more often and relax."
Lin Jinshun explained in a weak voice, "I didn't think too much, it's just that these past two days, my eyelids have been twitching and I've been feeling anxious."
Eyelid twitching?
Tang Min couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Sometimes, blood relationship is so wonderful.
There is always a strong sense of perception between close relatives.
Lin Jinshun is such a dull person, but he could sense something was wrong after Lin Yongqiang showed up.
Tang Min had no way of telling Lin Jinshun about Lin Yongqiang's current situation.
That honest country man had lost his family and his only son. How could he bear such tragic news!
Tang Min comforted him softly, "Your eyelids may be twitching because you haven't rested enough. I'm a doctor, listen to me, it's nothing serious, just get more rest, you're just under too much pressure."
After hearing what Tang Min said, Lin Jinshun felt relieved. He then said, "Then ask Yongqiang if he will come back to his hometown for the New Year."
Tang Min responded, "Okay, I'll ask for you. If he can get a leave, he'll be back. If he's busy with work, he'll probably spend the New Year here."
At this point, she changed the subject and asked, "By the way, where is my mother-in-law? Let her answer the phone."
Under the current circumstances, she might need to bring some good news back to her hometown to divert Lin Jinshun's attention and alleviate his inner anxiety.
"She's busy in the kitchen. I'll go get her."
Lin Jinshun gave the phone to Gu Deyu.
Gu Deyu asked with a smile, "Xiao Min, do you miss your mother?"
"Yeah, Dad, I missed you so much since I haven't called you for such a long time."
Tang Min said to Gu Deyu, "Dad, it's a good thing you're home. Please counsel my adoptive father. He may be too lonely and always has wild thoughts."
"Don't worry, I'll tell him."
Soon, Wang Guixiang ran out from the kitchen, wiped her hands on her apron twice, and answered the phone with a smile.
"Xiao Min, how are you guys doing lately?"
Wang Guixiang asked loudly in a happy mood.
"Mom, it's great. The restaurant is busy, right?"
"Yes, the weather is cold, and the stews are selling especially well. I come to the restaurant to cook at 7 or 8 in the morning these days."
Business is good and she can make money. Wang Guixiang is in a good mood and full of energy.
"Mom, are my eldest brother and his wife in the restaurant?"
Tang Min asked.
"No, the weather is too cold, Cuihua always catches a cold, your sister-in-law is at home taking care of the children, and when your father comes back, he asked your brother to go back and look after the house."
Tang Min pursed her lips and said, "Mom, let me tell you something."
"Xiao Min, what is it? Tell me."
Wang Guixiang waited for a reply.
