Chapter 96 Those things about the Su family
A few days left before New Year's Eve, heavy snow fell from the sky, and the entire land seemed to be covered with a white velvet carpet for the first time.
In a well-preserved courtyard in the capital, an old man was sitting quietly on a rocking chair, wearing a thick cotton jacket and coat, his eyes seemingly open and closed.
Gently, the old man sighed, then stretched out his dry hand, wiped the mist from the window, and looked thoughtfully at the snow outside.
"dad………".
Someone shouted softly behind him, and a handsome man came over, holding a blanket in his hand, walked to the old man and covered him, saying, "It's cold, why don't you go back to the inner room."
The old man turned his head and looked at his daughter-in-law and smiled silently. Although his face was exhausted, his eyes were bright and he said, "It's okay, I can still hold on to this old bone anyway, so let me wait a little longer."
The man frowned slightly, and he seemed to want to persuade him, but in the end he chose to remain silent and stood quietly beside the old man.
"Aunt Hui, call Xiaodong again, why haven't you arrived yet after so long?" the old man suddenly said.
The fu person replied: "I just fought, and it was just a few minutes, and there was a traffic jam on the road during heavy snow.
The old man nodded slightly, with a fascinating smile on his face, and said, "I haven't seen you for a few months, and I don't know how Xiao Jin is. You are also very worried about this mother? At that time, you asked you to persuade her to stay in the capital, but it's not that she can't arrange her work, so why bother to go to Yunjiang?"
The fu person smiled softly: "The child is grown up and has her own way to go, so we can't interfere too much. And seeing that she has made some achievements with her own efforts, her father and I are happy for her."
No one knows a daughter better than a mother. She is very impressed by her daughter's son. She knows that she just wants to have a quieter life and get out of the chaotic circles of the capital.
The old man's eyes were full of kindness: "Yes, Xiao Jin has always been very independent, and we don't need to worry too much, if it weren't for......hey!"
The fu people saw that their father-in-law was in a state of ease," hurriedly advised: "Dad, don't think too much. Fang Lei and the others said that? After Chen Xiao went to Yunjiang, he not only began to do things down-to-earth, but also took good care of Xiao Jin and did not let her suffer."
The old man chuckled and said, "Well, I've heard of it." It seems that the child of the Chen family is really enlightened all night and knows how to discipline himself in life." He will turn around and help his father share his worries, but it looks like a ) material that can be made, haha."
"The most valuable thing is that you know how to take on the responsibility of your husband." He gave Xiao Jin a sigh of relief, doing a good job..."
The man smiled with empathy and said, "I was satisfied with the recent performance of this son-in-law, especially in order to protect his daughter, he did not hesitate to make the entire media and entertainment industry mess up. This kind of intention alone is enough to make people move.
At this moment, there was a sound of brakes outside the door. When I heard a familiar male voice, the old man's eyes flashed and said, "Come" and go out and take a look."
As he said that, the old man was about to stand up. The man quickly reached out to support him, and opened the door with him with interest and walked out.
The snow-haired hair in the yard covered the ground, "The cold wind was gentle, but with the movement outside the door", a joy was spreading. After the door was pushed open, a young man with a handsome face walked in first. Seeing the person in front of him, he smiled and shouted: "Grandpa, mom, I brought my brother-in-law and sister back."
As soon as he finished speaking, a man and a woman stepped in outside the door. The man was handsome and free and easy, and the woman was graceful and unrestrained. He walked together holding hands. Ye Yi looked quite as stunning as a golden boy and a jade girl.
Su Jin let Chen Xiao lead him into the extremely familiar courtyard. His eyes turned around. When he saw the old man and the fu people standing under the eaves, he couldn't help but throbbed. He let go of Chen Xiao's hand, trotted over, Zhan Yan said, "Grandpa, Mom!"
"It's good to come back, it's good to come back..."
The old man and the fu guy held Su Jin's hand, looked at him in a chill, and the feeling of doting appeared on his face.
"Grandpa, mom, Su Jin and I are back to spend the New Year with you."
Chen Xiao also came over at the right time, and his etiquette was extremely thoughtful. Looking at the old man who had been in the history of China for a while, although his mood was so moving, he was still able to control it.
Mr. Su looked at him carefully, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said softly: "Yes, it seems that he has made progress. No wonder he has always heard Fang Lei praise you recently."
"Grandpa, go in first, it's cold outside.
Su Jin and his mother supported Mr. Zi together, and at the same time looked at Chen Xiao tacitly, with a blush on his beautiful face.
Seeing the old man nodding with a smile, Chen Xiao hurriedly signaled to his mother-in-law, Aunt Qiao Hui, took her hand, and helped the old man into the house with Su Jin.
This scene naturally attracted Aunt Qiao Hui's smile.
"Mom, it seems that the third uncle and aunt are really not fake. I just observed it all the way. Not only is Xiao Jin and him in a friendly and harmonious manner, but he is not polite to me. It seems like a different person. I am not used to it."
Su Jin's brother Su Dong helped the brother-in-law speak nice things. In the past, he was also very disgusted with the young master of the Chen family and opposed the marriage from the bottom of his heart. However, he could not bear the family situation and could only watch his sister enter the fire pit. However, with the news from Xu Fanglei and his experience of picking up people this time, he really felt that the brother-in-law had changed his mind. Not only did the couple feel inseparable, but he also called him one by one.
"That's good. As long as your sister is happy, it's the biggest good thing."
Aunt Qiao Hui was sincerely happy.
After the five people entered the inner hall, they naturally had some family matters. In the face of life inquiries, Chen Xiao and Su Jin naturally answered in a very tacit and thoughtful manner. During this period, in order to show their love, their hands were held for a moment, which made Mr. Su and others laugh continuously.
"Mom, where is my dad?" Su Jin asked.
"He has something to do, and he will come later."
Listening to his mother-in-law's words, Chen Xiao immediately remembered the father-in-law Su Beiwang, who was the second-in-commander of the Ministry of Railways. The second-generation Su family, who was the banner-leader, and smiled and said, "Dad's situation should be good now, right?"
Aunt Qiao Hui smiled but didn't say anything. After all, in the circle of aristocratic families in the capital, it has long formed a tradition that people do not interfere in politics. Even if they are gossiping, Chen Xiao is a member of the Chen family after all. Even if he is a relative, it is not equivalent to wearing the same child.
Mr. Su snorted softly and said, "This deputy minister looks so busy..."
A hint of dissatisfaction was expressed in his tone, which made Aunt Qiao Hui and Su Dong look embarrassed.
Although a deputy ministerial-level official is already a prominent existence, Su Beiwang is still carrying the banner of supporting the Su family. If Mr. Su was not still alive and with the relationship between the Chen family, he would probably have withdrawn from the core circle of power long ago!
Chen Xiao smiled as if he didn't realize it, "My father's qualifications and political achievements are outstanding among the same age as this year. I have heard my father say recently that in the new year's change, my father-in-law should be sure to get the next level..."
Mr. Su obviously didn't want to say more about this. Seeing that it was getting late, he waved his hand and said, "Let's wait for him, have dinner first. You and Xiao Jin have been on the plane for a few hours in the cold weather. Let's drink some hot soup to warm up your body..."
Since Mr. Su retired, he has lived in this large mansion guarded by the armed police post. Because he likes quietness, he rarely meets guests on weekdays. Generally, those who can enter the mansion are directly in the Su family and a few friends.
But today my beloved granddaughter came back, but Mr. Su just asked Su Jin's family to come over and ignored the other children's requests for visiting them.
Chen Xiao roughly guessed the reason behind this, because the second generation of the Su family was not considered a good rest. It is estimated that the old man's children always ask for this and that every time they come, they make the old man dissatisfied and irritable. Naturally, they don't want to make it noisy on this good day!
During the meal, Su Jin was holding dishes for the old man from time to time, talking about interesting things in Yunjiang. With the company of his granddaughter, the old man's anger improved a lot in an instant.
After Chen Xiao chatted with the old man for a few words, he started chatting with his brother-in-law Su Dong. Not only were the two not very different ages, but Su Dong was also half a media person. He is currently in the News and Publication Department of the General Administration of Press and Publication. His position at the deputy department level is also outstanding and has won some face for the Su family.
Not long after, Chen Xiao's father-in-law Su Beiwang finally came over. He first asked the old man for an accident. After sitting for a while, he glanced at the son-in-law. His face was not as tense as before. He even said in a rare joking manner: "The things happened a few days ago were quite disturbing. It has not been peaceful yet. I don't know how many celebrities have to live in a hurry this year."
Although I didn't like this son-in-law at first, I heard about it during this period, especially in order to protect my daughter, Chen Xiao did not hesitate to pull the entire entertainment industry into the water. From this point of view, it is enough to satisfy him.
"Do your job well first, and have some leisure time and then take care of those trivial matters."
Mr. Su said lukewarmly, which made Su Beiwang stop just as he was about to show a high attitude in front of his son-in-law.
"By the way, how is the matter between the old Duan family and the old Ye family now?"
Mr. Su asked casually.
In an instant, the atmosphere at the dinner table calmed down. Now the news that the old Duan family and the old Ye family were about to form an alliance has long been spread throughout the capital circle. After all, one is a strong upstart and the other is a well-established family with a strong foundation. If the same spirit is really connected, it will definitely have an immeasurable impact on the future power map of China!
Su Beiwang thought for a moment and said, "I don't know what the specific progress is now. I only know that the two families had just met once a few days ago."
Chen Xiao's eyebrows immediately flicked, and this sentence could clearly smell the nickname. It seems that the alliance between the old Duan family and the old Ye family has made substantial progress!
However, he did not think much about this joint, because, inadvertently, a gentle figure with infinite familiarity and complex emotions quickly emerged in his mind, as well as memories of twenty years...
Will she really agree to this marriage?
Chen Xiao couldn't help but turn his head and glance at the light and floating snowflakes in the window, and his mood also drifted out...
