After the funeral, I abused the scum with the bamboo horse

The car drove straight along the shade of the trees, until the familiar bronze door appeared before Nie Jiayan's calm mood gave birth to a little nervousness.

Maybe it's a bit hypocritical to say so, but he is indeed a little timid, especially when he sees the car driving directly in the direction of the Lin family's main house, this nervousness is even more obvious.

Although he lived in Lin's house for six years before going abroad, the only places he walked about on a daily basis were the door and Lin Yixing's house, and the only memories of going to the main house a few times were eating New Year's Eve dinners.

Lin's high family compound, the relationship between the characters is very complicated. Uncle Shen taught it before, but he is stupid and can't remember well.

Later, when I went out to study with Lin Yixing, there was only one housekeeper and one driver in my life circle, and I didn't need to remember so many things.

So now Nie Jiayan only has a very simple impression of the number of people in the Lin family. He only remembers grandpa, second uncle, second aunt, third uncle, and Lin Ranyi.

But it is really too difficult for him to tell which face is right for which name.

Probably because of this in consideration, after getting out of the car, Lin Yixing said: "Follow me closely, just follow me later and call for someone."

Nie Jia said she couldn't ask for it, and after getting out of the car, she followed Lin Yixing like a little tail.

In the living room of the main house, only a man and a woman were sitting on the sofa.

Nie Jiayan followed Lin Yixing in, and found that the situation was far simpler than he thought. The two people sitting in the room were probably Lin Yixing's second uncle and aunt, who were also Lin Ranyi's parents—Lin Shenqian and Xu Manling.

It's just that he still walked quietly close to Lin Yi, trying to minimize his presence.

Lin Ran was also afraid that he would be punished if he missed class without permission, so he ran to his parents to ask for credit as soon as he entered the door, "Dad, Mom, Uncle Shen and I went to the airport to pick up my cousin."

"Really, even if you want to see your cousin, you have to go to school." Xu Manling reprimanded softly.

Lin Shenqian didn't tell the truth, and when he saw Lin Yixing coming in, he smiled warmly: "Yixing is back, how is it? Was the journey hard?"

"Fortunately, thank you, Second Uncle, for your concern." Lin Yixing put his arm around Nie Jiayan's shoulder and led him to him, "Second Uncle and Aunt, this is Jiayan."

Lin Shenqian and his wife looked at each other, as if a little surprised that Lin Yixing deliberately picked Nie Jiayan out to identify him. After all, in their eyes, Nie Jiayan was a very weird existence.

An adopted son is not like an adopted son, and outsiders are not like outsiders, but Lin Yixing cares about him very much.

"Yo, Jiayan is already this big."

Xu Manling was the first to react. She took Nie Jiayan's hand enthusiastically, and asked with concern: "I haven't eaten abroad in the past few years, okay? I'll be fine when I go home."

After finishing speaking, she turned her head and asked her husband beside her, "Shen Qian, this child is too thin, I have to ask Mama Lin to cook some dishes for him to nourish his body later."

Lin Shenqian nodded, and echoed with a smile: "Well, it should be made up."

Nie Jiayan silently held back the words that the foreign countries are good, I eat well, etc., after all, the behavior of Xu Manling and Lin Shenqian is too natural, as if their relationship has always been so good, which makes him feel There is such a short moment of ignorance, it takes time to slow down.

So Nie Jiayan twitched the corners of his mouth after a buffer time of two seconds, and replied politely, "Thank you, Uncle and Aunt."

"Hey, this kid has such a sweet mouth." Xu Manling said.

Lin Yixing stood aside, seeing Nie Jiayan being dragged by Xu Manling and saying this and that, with a cute and cooperative look on his face, he couldn't help but twitched the corners of his lips, then brought him back calmly, and said Changed the subject: "Second Uncle, where's Grandpa?"

Lin Shenqian looked at the wall clock on the wall and said, "You should still be asleep. Your grandfather is not in good health recently, and he drowsy after drinking the medicine. But he told you that if you come back, you can go up to him directly."

Lin Yixing nodded, "Okay, then I'll go up and find him."

After that, he dragged Nie Jiayan upstairs.

Seeing this, Lin Shenqian hesitated to speak, and finally let them go.

After reaching the second floor, Nie Jiayan turned his head and glanced at Lin Shenqian and his wife with different expressions. Although the other party didn't speak, he obviously read something from their expressions.

For example, he shouldn't have followed Lin Yixing up.

So when Lin Yixing was about to knock on the door, Nie Jiayan whispered a suggestion: "Brother, why don't I go downstairs and wait?"

"No need," Lin Yixing knocked on the door twice, "Grandpa wants to see you too."

Nie Jiayan was dubious, thinking that Lin Yixing was probably coaxing him.

After a while, a deep and old voice came from the thick agarwood wooden door: "Is it Yixing?"

"It's me, Grandpa," Lin Yixing said, "There are also good words."

After a moment of silence, Lin Tongchen said, "Come in."

The door was pushed open, and Nie Jiayan saw the old man sitting by the window, covered with a thin blanket, basking in the sun.

Lin Tongchen was wearing an improved plain Chinese tunic suit with buckles, the fine lines around his eyes were covered with thick wind and frost, his face was deeply grooved, and his temples were white, but his eyes were transparent, looking shrewd and majestic, not much different from what he remembered. access.

Nie Jiayan obediently followed Lin Yixing and called out to Grandpa, then stood upright.

Because he had just woken up, Lin Tongchen's eyes were not as sharp as before. After scanning Nie Jiayan carefully, he asked Lin Yixing, "Aren't you leaving this time?"

"No, everything over there has been dealt with."

"Well, very good," Lin Tongchen nodded with satisfaction, "I will arrange for you to help the company as soon as possible, and then you can follow Uncle Fu and the others to learn how to manage and operate."

"After all, the business of the Lin family will be handed over to you sooner or later."

"Well, grandson knows."

After finishing speaking with Lin Yixing, Lin Tongchen suddenly turned his head to look in the direction where Nie Jiayan was standing.

Looking at each other, Nie Jiayan's breathing slowed suddenly. Before he could decide whether to say something, he saw Lin Tongchen waving at him.

"Jiayan, come to Grandpa."

The tenderness and love in the old man's eyes made him relax a little. Nie Jiayan walked up to Lin Tongchen, bent down slightly, and called out with a smile, "Grandpa."

Lin Tongchen raised his hand and stroked his hair, with a smile in his eyes, "Are you a little afraid of grandpa?"

It was very different from the serious and majestic look towards Lin Yixing, when facing Nie Jiayan, Lin Tongchen lost all aura.

Just like an ordinary grandpa, he still looks a little amiable.

Nie Jiayan thought of the grandfathers of Joseph and Jonny, neighbors in country M.

The other party is a retired old professor with a humorous personality and is approachable. From time to time, he will go fishing with the three of them, just like Lin Tongchen right now, giving people a very friendly feeling.

The rest of Nie Jiayan's nervousness disappeared. He raised his head and smiled honestly and said, "I'm a little scared. Grandpa looks very serious when he speaks. I'm afraid I might say the wrong thing."

He raised his hand and gestured, "I'm a little stupid."

Lin Tongchen was amused by his words, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were stained with joy.

"A kid who says he's stupid won't be so stupid," Lin Tongchen said, "If Ran Yi is half as smart as you, grandpa will be very happy."

Speaking of this, Lin Tongchen seemed to have thought of something, and looked up at Lin Yixing, "By the way, Yixing, have you found Jiayan's school yet?"

Hearing this, Nie Jiayan also turned his head.

Lin Yixing lowered his eyes slightly, was silent for a while, and said, "Not yet."

"If not, it's fine. Let Jiayan and Ran Yi study in the same class, so the two brothers can take care of them."

Lin Tongchen said while stroking Nie Jiayan's hair, "Jiayan, would you like to help grandpa supervise Ran Yi's studies? He's almost in the second year of high school, and his grades are still stuck at the end of the crane. Sometimes I feel ashamed for him. "

Nie Jiayan pressed his cheek against the armrest of the chair, hesitating a little, "Supervising can be supervised, but my grades are also average, so I'm afraid I can't teach him anything."

"It's okay," Lin Tongchen smiled nonchalantly, "I can help as much as I can."

Nie Jiayan nodded, with the corners of his eyes twisted, he said, "I listen to grandpa."

During dinner, Lin Tongchen went downstairs with Nie Jiayan's support.

Because of the recent illness and taboos, Lin Tongchen couldn't eat many things, so Xu Manling ordered the servants to prepare mostly light dishes with less salt and less oil.

Nie Jiayan helped Lin Tongchen to the main seat, and just about to sit down next to Lin Yixing, Lin Tongchen called him, "Jiayan, come over to sit with Grandpa, Grandpa wants to chat with you."

Nie Jiayan didn't think too much about it, and sat down next to Lin Tongchen after saying yes.

The arrangement of the seats in the Lin family has always been well-regulated. For example, Lin Tongchen sat on the main seat, with Lin Shenqian, Xu Manling and Lin Ranyi on the left, and Lin Yixing and Lin Shenjin on the right.

Not just according to the general seniority, the Lin family knows very well that the first person on the right hand side of the old man has always been the person he values ​​and likes.

This position was owned by Lin Yixing when Lin Yixing's father was still alive, but now Nie Jiayan has come out of nowhere.

Although Lin Shenqian didn't want to think about it, he still couldn't help but said: "Dad, it seems..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Lin Tongchen cut him off, "Where's the third one? Doesn't he know he's coming back for dinner today?"

When Lin Tongchen asked, Nie Jiayan remembered that there was such a third uncle.

"Third brother, third child is still working overtime at the company," Lin Shenqian faltered, "I'll make a call to urge him..."

"What to fight!"

Lin Tongchen mercilessly exposed his crappy lies, "Can he stay in the company with his temperament? He must be looking for his broken wood again. He doesn't help the Lin family's good antique business, and he always thinks about doing it. What broken wood carvings."

As Lin Tongchen said, his anger directly shifted to Lin Shenqian, "You are also his second brother after all, so it's fine if you don't help persuade me, and join forces with him to fool me!"

Lin Shenqian was so scolded that he didn't dare to vent his anger, his head was so low that it was almost buried in the bowl.

Nie Jiayan was also a little scared, and subconsciously looked at Lin Yixing beside him.

Lin Yixing secretly held his thin wrist under the table and shook it, then handed Lin Tongchen a cup of tea.

"Grandpa, have some tea."

Lin Tongchen took Lin Yixing's tea, and after drinking most of his anger subsided, he said with a sullen face, "He likes to come back for dinner, anyway, the Lin family doesn't expect him to be in charge."
