Chapter 140: Mr. Jiang's Visit
Mr. Lin rushed out, put his arm around Mr. Jiang and laughed.
"Hahaha... look at what you said. I'm so happy that you're here, come in!"
Mr. Jiang turned around and told the guards who followed him to go back first, then followed Mr. Lin into the yard. As soon as he entered the yard, Mr. Jiang felt something different. The weather in early autumn was still a little hot. But as soon as you enter the courtyard, the fresh and refreshing air rushes towards you, making you feel extra comfortable. Even the usually groggy mind became clear in an instant.
Mr. Jiang felt so comfortable that his pores opened up, and the garden was full of flowers, just like March.
Old Master Jiang looked at Old Master Lin suspiciously and made another surprising discovery. This old guy is now full of energy and walks briskly, without the frail look of his peers. Even his graying hair had some black stubble.
Is this rejuvenation? The amazing changes in his old friend did not escape his eyes at all.
However, everything in front of me was too unbelievable. Isn't this scientific at all?
The house is like a fairyland. The air in the yard seems to be full of spiritual energy. You will feel extremely comfortable as long as you are in it. He had been to the Lin family's old house many times before, but never like now.
And there is this old friend who I have played with since childhood. The amazing changes in him can be seen by anyone with eyes. Something is wrong. What happened to him during this period of time?
"Old Jiang, why aren't you talking? This isn't like you at all."
Mr. Lin noticed Mr. Jiang's surprise, but he was not prepared to explain.
"Lao Lin, your family has changed a lot."
Mr. Jiang finally couldn't help himself and asked curiously.
"Haha, it's just some luck. Come on, I'll take you to taste my good tea. I won't give it to ordinary people."
Mr. Lin lightly avoided the topic and walked slowly in the garden with Mr. Jiang.
Seeing that Mr. Lin refused to speak, Mr. Jiang did not ask any more questions. He was not a nosy person, and he was happy for his friend to have such a change.
The two of them went straight to the living room. An Ran just came down from upstairs. When she saw Mr. Jiang, she walked up to him and greeted him with a smile.
"Hello, Grandpa Jiang."
"Oh, Ranran is getting more and more outstanding. Her whole temperament is incredible. Grandpa Jiang has never seen a fairy. If there are fairies in this world, they must look like Ranran."
When Mr. Jiang saw An Ran, he was so happy that his eyebrows were raised and his eyes were not visible. Ranran is a capable little girl, sweet-talker and considerate. Who wouldn’t like such a young person?
"Haha. Grandpa Jiang is really good at praising people."
An Ran also respected this old man very much. He had defended his country all his life and was a hero.
She saw Mr. Lin busy boiling water to make tea, so she walked up to him and said.
"Grandpa, let me do it! Let's take the tea set to the pavilion, and enjoy the view while making tea. The view is open, comfortable and interesting."
Mr. Lin handed the teapot to An Ran and said to Mr. Jiang with a smile.
"Ranran still knows how to enjoy life. Old Jiang, let's be elegant today, drink tea, appreciate flowers, and recite poems."
"The guest should follow the host's wishes, so I will respectfully obey your command."
Mr. Jiang also said a few words in a literary manner, and just at this time, Lin's mother came down from upstairs. She was also very surprised to see Mr. Jiang, and she spoke to him with a smile on her face.
"Old Jiang is here. I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you?"
"Sister-in-law, am I okay?"
Mr. Jiang answered quickly. He glanced at Lin's mother casually and found that she had also become a lot younger. In the past, because Lin Qingwan disappeared, Lin's mother missed her daughter so much that she was heartbroken and almost lost her life. Now she seems to be in very good mental state, without any sign of her previous sickly look.
With the addition of Lin's mother, the four of them carried tea sets and snacks to the pavilion in the garden. The pavilion is built on a very high terrain. There is an elegant stone table and stone benches in the middle of the pavilion. Sitting inside, you can see the scenery of various parts of the garden.
The four of them sat down and Anran lit the small tea stove to boil a pot of water. She started to brew water and tea with skillful and smooth movements, which were pleasing to the eye like flowing water.
She poured the brewed tea into teacups and placed them in front of the three old people. Mr. Jiang picked up the teacup and took a sip, then narrowed his eyes slightly with an expression of enjoyment. After a moment, he let out a deep breath and sighed.
“Good tea.”
Then he looked at An Ran and praised her, "I didn't expect that Ran Ran has such a skill in making tea. She is worthy of being my granddaughter, Jiang."
When Mr. Lin saw Mr. Jiang praising An Ran and looking proud of him, he immediately quit after hearing what he said to the end. His eyes widened, and he placed the teacup in his hand heavily on the stone table and spoke rudely.
"You shameless old thief Jiang, when did Ranran become your granddaughter?"
Mr. Jiang sipped his tea comfortably, his expression calm, and he was unmoved by Mr. Lin's anger. He slowly put down the cup in his hand and spoke slowly.
"Lao Lin, we are real men, and we stick to our words. Didn't we discuss this issue last time when Ranran treated me?"
Mr. Lin instantly remembered what he said when he was moved, and his expression became a little embarrassed for a moment. Think about it, Lin Zhaoxian has been a leader in the business world for decades and has never made a loss in business. Unfortunately, this time he lost everything. Not only did he not get a granddaughter, but he also lost a granddaughter-in-law.
He couldn't help feeling aggrieved when he thought of this. Ranran still called him grandpa, but he called this old thing "grandpa". It was really a big loss for him.
Lin's mother didn't know about this yet, so An Ran quietly told her the whole story. Mother Lin couldn't help laughing after hearing this, and when she looked at Grandpa Lin's frustrated look, she found it even funnier.
"Haha... old man. Old Jiang is right. A man's word is his bond. We can't be the kind of people who break their promises and make a fortune."
When Mr. Lin heard what Lin's mother said, he felt even more depressed. Mr. Jiang, however, was like a child who had stolen some candy, grinning from ear to ear.
In fact, Lin's mother also had her own considerations in mind. With Lao Jiang's current status, if Ranran recognized him as her grandfather, no one would dare to look down on her easily in the future.
It wasn't that Mr. Lin really wanted to get serious with Mr. Jiang. The two of them had been used to fighting and quarreling all their lives, and they liked to argue about everything.
The three old men sat together, chatting about this and that, and when they talked about the interesting things that happened in the past, they all smiled happily. An Ran quietly stayed with the few people, helping them to serve tea and water and listening to their stories from the past. She seemed quite relaxed and comfortable.
Mr. Jiang was chatting while drinking the tea in the cup, but he was secretly surprised. He had suffered many injuries while on missions in the past. Although he received the best treatment, some of his old injuries still hurt from time to time. Now that I’m older, I have heart problems and often feel palpitations and shortness of breath.
But today, he didn't feel any discomfort, and his body felt more relaxed and refreshed than ever before. But Lao Lin refused to tell the reason, and he would not investigate. Everyone has their own secrets, and it is everyone's freedom to tell them or not.
Mr. Jiang took another sip of the tea in the cup and felt a warm feeling flowing through his meridians, making him feel refreshed and comfortable. Even if Lao Lin didn't say it, he knew that this tea was not ordinary.
