Chapter 93 Family Dinner
The Jiang family moved into this house twenty years ago.
This is a complete quadrangle house with four courtyards. The old man of the Jiang family was allocated this house when he was still young. It is said that it was the former royal palace.
When it was first divided, although the house was simple and ancient, it still could not conceal its grandeur and splendor after years of passing through, and it showed the owner's status and power everywhere.
Later, the old man of the Jiang family specially ordered people to renovate and fine-tune it, deliberately concealing its sharp edges and retaining only its simple and elegant side. However, carved beams and embroidered pillars, green tiles and red eaves can be seen everywhere in the house, and every detail exudes a low-key luxury.
Coming out of the Jiang family's old house, heading west across two alleys, you will arrive at the Yin family's house. The Yin family's house was bought later, just because Yin Dong's father Yin Zhengxian liked this kind of house, so Yin Dong bought one five years ago and let his parents move in.
Yin Zhengxian was later investigated by his superiors for this matter, but because all the purchasing procedures were proper, no problems were found.
At this time, Yin Zhengxian and his wife were sitting in the main hall, drinking tea and chatting with the old man of the Jiang family, Jiang Changqing, and Jiang Fangyuan and Sui Jing.
Although Jiang Changqing has retired now, he had a good reputation and a deep foundation when he was in office, and his words still carry a lot of weight today. Therefore, although Yin Zhengxian's momentum in officialdom currently far exceeds that of Jiang Fangyuan, the Yin couple are not arrogant in the Jiang family, and the relationship between the two families is very harmonious and natural.
Jiang Yu and Yin Dong followed the housekeeper. Before they entered the main hall, they could already hear the conversation of several people inside.
Jiang Changqing complained, "I haven't seen Xiaodong in a while. How come he's busier than you guys when he runs his own company? I asked Xiaoyu to invite him to dinner at home. I tried twice, but he refused."
"Not to mention you, even as his own mother, it's hard for me to see him once. I also heard that he recently acquired a foreign company and sleeps in the company every day, day and night. Today, thanks to you, I have the honor of seeing my son."
Sun Mei complained openly, but in fact she was speaking for her son.
"You don't know how lucky you are. If our family had such an outstanding son, we would wake up laughing in our dreams."
Sui Jing's words were a compliment, but more importantly, they were sincere. She and her husband had always wanted to have another son, and they stopped trying to conceive when they were 45 years old, only because the old man of the Jiang family really wanted a grandson. Unfortunately, things did not go as they wished.
So Mr. Jiang likes Yin Dong very much.
Sui Jing was telling the truth, and Sun Mei unconsciously showed a hint of satisfaction. Yin Zhengxian glanced at his wife, put down his teacup, and said calmly, "That was just speculation, not worthy of being called a gentleman. If we really want to talk about excellence, I think Xiaoyu is much more outstanding. I was chatting with some old friends a while ago, and they heard them praising Xiaoyu, saying that she is down-to-earth, steady, and decisive in her work, much like the old man back then. Her future is limitless."
These few words made the Jiang couple feel very comfortable. Jiang Yu has always been their only proud precious daughter since she was a child.
In fact, both families knew that Yin Dong was in business and Jiang Yu was in politics. If they got married in the future, it would be a strong alliance and a perfect match.
With this in mind, both sets of parents are very satisfied with each other's children.
Jiang Yu, who had already stepped into the main hall, said with a smile, "Uncle Yin, you were praising me behind my back again, and I overheard you. If you want to praise me, wait until I get in and praise you in person. I can even have another drink with you later."
