Lin Shenggen sat behind his desk, comfortably sipping warm water.
Accountant Xu sighed, "After all this year, it's finally time to rest."
"Shengen, your big day is almost here, isn't it? When the date is set, remember to invite us to your wedding!"
Everyone in the office was looking at Lin Shenggen, never expecting that after being widowed, he could still find someone with the same qualities as Yang Lan.
Although Yang Lan had been divorced, she couldn't resist the support of her family.
The child will be cared for by both parents, the family's financial situation is good, they live in a detached house, and she is an only child, so everything will eventually belong to her.
Lin Shenggen laughed and said, "This matter has not been settled yet. The two families have not even started discussing it. How can it be so fast?"
Don't worry, you'll definitely be included in any good events, but remember to bring a gift!
After saying that, he felt a little proud. So many people in the factory were watching Yang Lan, and it was only because he had charm that Yang Lan agreed.
"I said you two have been dating for so many days, you haven't come over yet, have you?" Accountant Xu couldn't stand his smugness and teased, "Then you'd better keep a close eye on him. I heard that Director Yang has very high standards. Many people have introduced him to people before, but he didn't like any of them."
By the way, what about his son and sister? Should they continue to be cared for by their parents?
Lin Shenggen is only good-looking, but his physical condition is really not good.
The two children will naturally continue to live with their grandparents; otherwise, life would be chaotic again. Stepchildren from a previous marriage are the most difficult to get along with.
Jiang Yi's hands trembled with anger when he heard that. What right did those people have to question his character?
“If he were to leave then, people outside would be even more restrained.” This included Comrade Lin Shenggen.
Lin Shenggen was furious, but he kept his head high, hiding his ferocious face from the young man.
The whole family was watching Lin Shenggen closely, wanting to see how I would answer.
After hearing what you said, Yang Lan's face softened considerably.
"Things have to be done step by step," Lin Shenggen actually had a plan in mind when he said that. Later, he heard Wu Tao say that his parents seemed to be quite vulnerable.
If someone gets into a primary school and aspires to a higher level of education, it's safe to say they're not even our direct superiors yet.
Yang Lan controlled her expression. "The old comrade is still very helpful. I stopped Jiang Yi because I wanted you to act impulsively."
Jiang Yi gritted his teeth, "We were talking nonsense. He would do anything for you, and even if he did, you would still do it."
I originally intended to criticize their small family so that we wouldn't have to mock them from the outside.
How can parents possibly resist their sons? If I just put more pressure on Jiang Yi, I can get rid of the Lin family and we can all be one family again.
Jiang Yi took a deep breath, thinking to himself that Xiao Shi should have stayed away from my two children in the past. Anyway, without the two elderly people to take care of us, it would have been fine as long as we spent money.
Don't let my age or how long I've been in our county fool you. I'm incredibly capable; in a short time, I've managed to smooth out all the relationships with the various leaders.
However, this only angered him. Accountant Xu said in a hot voice, "They say that the original spouse is the bad one in a marriage. Your bad days are just like his messy life."
It's also possible that Comrade Lin Shenggen found a partner like Comrade Jiang Yi, which would propel him to even greater heights.
Although Yang Lan went to primary school, very few leaders looked down on me. I still have tangible connections; he used to enjoy the good life because of me.
Everyone in the office laughed; they all understood what Director Wu meant.
"Director, he didn't have any inside information, did he?" Accountant Xu quickly asked, trying to smooth things over.
Wu Tao and Yang Lan, who were standing inside the office, heard all our laughter. Yang Lan was surprised, while Jiang Yi's face turned red with anger.
Lin Shenggen didn't want to bear the stigma of "without a former mother, there is no former father." He said, "Let them stop making wild guesses outside. Your family used to live together happily."
The people in the office all agreed, thinking that Lin Shenggen would forget his mother and son after getting married. They all advised Lin Shenggen that even if he lost his new home, he should not forget to take good care of his children.
“There’s a way. You’re not charming, but Comrade Jiang Yi is really into your looks. If you’re all envious, hurry up and go back and divorce your wives. You’ll definitely be able to find someone even worse,” Lin Shenggen said again.
Although Jiang Yi wasn't particularly romantic, he could still distinguish between right and wrong. At most, his younger brother still held a relatively small place in his heart.
Even if Yang Lan has been married and has a son, that child would be a burden to you, and you wouldn't be able to find someone who has been married before.
Then everyone remembered that when it came time to book a room, Lin Shenggen said that he didn't have much money, so he only booked a single room.
"What kind of inside story is that? The position we're envious of is out of their sight, so it's all nonsense."
"Look at what you're saying, Director. He's too lazy to compete with us older folks," Accountant Xu said obsequiously. "He always tells you that opportunities should be reserved for younger people."
Director Wu also laughed and said, "Accountant Xu, he understands, doesn't he? She's newly married, how could she care about her own son?"
When he said that, Director Wu was laughing, and he didn't seem as bitter as I was.
I had no ulterior motives in seeking out Jiang Yi, but those people's blatant mockery was simply too much.
Those words made Director Wu very unhappy. "So, in the past, if they were worse off than you, they would have been better off."
Wu Tao said, "He wasn't mentally prepared for that; being a mother in public always invites criticism."
"He's just bragging outside. He booked a room, but it's only a single room. How are we going to live together?" Nobody seemed to care, and they called me out on it. "If he really thinks that way, he should quickly change his application. He should at least apply for a two-bedroom apartment so that we can all squeeze in."
Thinking about the living conditions outside his home, and then about the Yang family's secluded courtyard, he felt a chill run through him.
If Comrade Shenggen were to become relatives with such a capable person, you would want to mention it, and it would bring tears to your eyes.
She has parents to support and two children to raise. She's now a stepmother. I don't know what Yang Lan is after.
Whether it's managing the children or living with them, whenever he and the children are in private, those kinds of conversations happen all the time. Not to mention what they say in private.
"Don't underestimate Jiang Yi just because he's an only child. Don't forget your good-for-nothing younger brother. They still remember Director Yang Lan, right?" The office was practically a small society. Accountant Xu was just looking at Lin Shenggen's smug expression, and even Director Wu came over with his cup to join in the quiet.
"You two have attended meetings together since then, but you don't know anything about Director Jiang."
Anyway, since the meeting is being held outside the county seat, it's not their home turf, so all you high-ranking officials should just sit quietly on the sidelines.
