Lin Xiaoxiao is very efficient.
Since he had promised Qin Jinye to help him arrange a meeting with Chu Weinian, he would definitely do his best to get things done.
When they went to the Chu family again, Chu Wuxuan and Cheng Muxi had already returned to the base, and Grandpa Chu was taking Xiaobao for a walk in the courtyard.
Wanfen used to have a job, but she quit after her grandson was born to stay home and take care of him.
When Lin Xiaoxiao arrived, Wan Fen had just finished frying crispy pork.
"Xiaoxiao, come and taste it for me." Wanfen pulled Lin Xiaoxiao into the kitchen, picked up a piece of crispy pork with a smile and fed it to her.
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't stand on ceremony and took a bite.
The freshly cooked meat was still steaming hot, salty, fragrant, and crispy—it was so delicious that her eyes widened.
"How is it?" Wanfen asked expectantly.
Lin Xiaoxiao nodded hurriedly, "Delicious, it's number one."
"Haha, you little rascal, you have such a sweet tongue." Wanfen was overjoyed at being praised for her cooking skills and couldn't help but feed her another piece. "Eat more if you like it."
Grandpa Chu and Xiao Bao, who had just strolled to their front door, smelled the aroma and decided to abandon their plan to take another walk, heading straight for the kitchen.
"Grandma, Xiaobao wants something delicious." Before anyone was even seen, Xiaobao's sweet, babyish voice rang out.
Wanfen never failed to grant her grandson's requests.
"good."
"Xiao Bao, look who's here!"
Xiao Bao swung his legs and ran into the kitchen, where he saw Lin Xiaoxiao standing next to Wan Fen.
He exclaimed in delight, "Sister~"
The sounds were all punctuated with tildes.
He couldn't help but run towards Lin Xiaoxiao, but stopped halfway there.
"Don't you like your older sister? Why aren't you coming over?" Wanfen smiled at her grandson.
Xiao Bao walked over and rubbed against Lin Xiaoxiao's leg, saying, "Sister is pregnant, you can't bump into her."
Xiao Bao carefully remembered everything the adults said.
"Good boy." Lin Xiaoxiao couldn't help but bend down and pat his head, then fed him a piece of crispy pork.
"The kitchen is smoky, go sit outside, and stay for dinner later." Wan Fen shooed Lin Xiaoxiao and Xiaobao out of the kitchen.
Grandpa Chu pulled Lin Xiaoxiao aside to admire his calligraphy.
After retiring, the old man developed a love for calligraphy and spends half of his time practicing every day.
Unfortunately, calligraphy requires a certain amount of talent, and the old man clearly lacked any talent at all. Even with double the effort, his writing remained formless and lifeless.
Lin Xiaoxiao could see the shortcomings at a glance, but she didn't say it outright. Instead, she did her best to find the good points.
"Overall, the arrangement of the characters and lines is exquisite, with a proper balance of density and spacing. It's like a shuffled square formation, chaotic yet dynamic, showcasing a high degree of harmonious beauty."
"Each character is a door to different realms, allowing people to appreciate the endless spiritual connotations behind the characters."
"Overall, well... unique."
By the end, Lin Xiaoxiao had run out of words to praise her.
I racked my brains, but the only word that came to mind was "unique".
"Haha, you've got good taste, girl." Old Master Chu was overjoyed.
Finally, someone has come to appreciate the beauty of his calligraphy.
His two sons even said his writing was mediocre. Humph, they clearly just don't know how to appreciate it.
Overwhelmed by the praise, Grandpa Chu immediately picked up a brush and inkstone, ready to give Lin Xiaoxiao an impromptu calligraphy performance.
After finishing writing, he asked Lin Xiaoxiao, "How is it?"
Lin Xiaoxiao: "......"
He again said against his will, "It seems to have the majestic and profound style of Yan Zhenqing, mixed with the elegant and unrestrained style of Wang Xizhi, and also carries a kind of unruliness and innovation that belongs directly to the creator."
"A masterpiece, a great work!"
Lin Xiaoxiao admired herself from the bottom of her heart for her ability to lie without batting an eye.
Xiao Bao lay on the table, looking at the words his great-grandfather had written. He sniffed and thought they were not beautiful at all.
He had seen his great-grandfather's handwriting, and it was truly beautiful.
But there must be a reason why his sister said that, so he wisely chose to keep quiet.
Grandpa Chu happily stamped the document and presented the 'masterpiece' to Lin Xiaoxiao.
Lin Xiaoxiao gladly accepted it.
She has a firm grasp on interpersonal relationships and social dynamics.
Chu Weinian returned at 5:30 pm, bringing Chu Wujin with him.
"Xiaoxiao is here?" Chu Weinian smiled kindly when he saw Lin Xiaoxiao playing with Xiaobao.
Lin Xiaoxiao stood up and called out, "Uncle Chu."
Chu Weinian said, "Don't be so polite, have a seat."
Lin Xiaoxiao quickly explained her purpose to him, and Chu Weinian agreed without hesitation, "No problem, I'll have my secretary contact Qin Jinye tomorrow."
In terms of political affairs, Qin Jinye, as the deputy mayor, performed his duties fairly properly.
He's just too fond of researching.
When the mayor's term expires and he is to be transferred, Qin Jinye has the best chance, but his competitors are not simple people either, which is why he started to campaign for votes.
In Chu Weinian's view, this was not a big deal.
The main reason he kept refusing Qin Jinye's invitations was that he knew Lin Xiaoxiao and Qin Yushen didn't have a good relationship with Qin Jinye, and he didn't want to have too much contact with Qin Jinye.
Now that Lin Xiaoxiao has spoken, he has no reason not to agree.
After Chu Weinian agreed, Lin Xiaoxiao quickly put the matter out of her mind.
"Little Four, how's the investigation going?" Old Master Chu asked Chu Wujin as he came downstairs.
Immediately, Chu Weinian and Lin Xiaoxiao's gazes both fell on Chu Wujin.
Chu Weinian's eyes questioned, while Lin Xiaoxiao was simply curious.
