Chapter 380 Hearts and Faces

During the Chinese New Year last year, Lin Dong went to his grandfather's house with his father and mother on the first day of the Lunar New Year. At that time, he was all about planting flower search engines and did not pay too much attention to family affairs. It was equivalent to making soy sauce.

Lin Dong's grandfather also lives in Qinjia Village and lives in his old house, only 500 meters away from Lin Zhenghua's family. Lin Dong's uncle's family lives with his grandfather, and his eldest son is in the old age. This is true for most families.

Lin Zhenghua has four brothers and sisters, Lin Zhengguo is the eldest and Lin Zhenghua is the second. Below are two younger sisters Lin Zhengjuan and Lin Zhengli. Lin Zhengguo has one son and one daughter. His son Lin Yuan went to junior high school and did not get into high school. He worked at home and worked as a farmer. His daughter Lin Ping is in college, one year younger than Lin Dong, and was studying at the normal university in the province.

Lin Dong's aunt Lin Zhengjuan has a son named He Li in her family. She graduated from high school and did not get into college. She is now unemployed at home. She was planning to join the army, but after two years of life, she heard that the army was not easy to stay and was very hard, so she backed down.

My sister-in-law Lin Zhengli has a daughter, Mei Hua, who is in the first year of high school and is a typical good girl.

Lin Zhengjuan and Lin Zhengli both married to the county town and usually return to their parents' home on the second day of the Chinese New Year every year. Last year, Lin Dong went to his two aunts' houses to pay New Year's greetings before attending the class reunion.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, unlike usual, I first received several groups of people coming to pay New Year's greetings, and then Lin Dong and his family of three went to grandpa's house with their things.

Lin Dong's grandfather Lin Baozhu is almost eighty this year, and his body is still very strong, and his grandmother is in her seventies. Because in the countryside, although she is old, she can't stay idle, but her body is very healthy, but her back is a little hunched.

Although living in Lin Zheng's country, Lin Baozhu's favorite among these grandchildren is Lin Dong. The only reason is that Lin Chuan likes to read books. Since childhood, his academic performance has always been very good. This makes Lin Baozhu, who has been in junior high school since childhood. Because his family has no money and has not finished junior high school, has an almost paranoid love for children who love to study. Therefore, every time Lin Dong goes to see his grandfather on vacation, he will be treated specially and chat with his grandfather. Lin Dong's academic performance is also the best tool Lin Baozhu uses to encourage other grandchildren.

When giving red envelopes during the Chinese New Year, Lin Dong received the largest red envelopes - although they were only five or ten yuan more than others, this was enough to make people jealous - this matter did not fade until Lin Dong went to college. Lin Baozhu's savings were not much, and the red envelopes were only symbolic. By this time, a few or ten yuan would no longer be paid attention to by the grandchildren.

When he arrived at his grandfather's house, Lin Dong was surprised to find that not only his uncle's family were there, but also his two aunts and cousins.

"In previous years, I have been staggering here with you," said the eldest aunt Lin Zhengjuan, who saw Lin Zhenghua's family coming, her eyes lit up, and she called the three of them into the house and explained on her own initiative: "This year I am thinking about having a reunion year together, so we came early."

Grandpa’s yard was not big at first. Although the house had been renovated, it was only more than 100 square meters. Now so many people came in all at once, it must be a little crowded. Grandpa sat in the bedroom and didn’t even come out. Lin Zhenghua’s family went to pay New Year’s greetings. Lin Baozhu’s gloomy face showed a smile when he saw Lin Dong. After the family of three paid New Year’s greetings, he said to Lin Zhenghua: “You go and do your business, I’ll talk to Xiaodong for a while!”

Lin Zhengjuan, who followed behind, showed a trace of dissatisfaction in her eyes and said half-jokingly: "Dad, you are still so partial. When He Li came over, he didn't see you talking to him. You can't do this!"

Lin Baozhu said lightly: "If Lin Li can get into college and get excellent grades, I will treat it the same way... Besides, ask your He Li yourself. Even if I bring him here to talk to him, will he be willing to talk to me, the old man?"

Lin Zhengjuan's face froze. When He Yuying saw the scene, she hurriedly smiled and said to Lin Zhengjuan: "Big sister, let's go to the kitchen to help. You can't let your sister-in-law be busy alone."

"Just go." When she talked about this, Lin Zhengjuan's face became even more unhesitant. She had always been arrogant and didn't do much about the work in the kitchen. She married a relatively introverted husband. She usually did nothing, but the family was very strict and was very spoiled to her son He Li. Lin Dong heard his father Lin Zhenghua privately say that if she hadn't had her long hair and short knowledge and too spoiled, He Li would not have been able to even get into college. Now, the college entrance examination is not as difficult as more than ten years ago!

She didn't want to go into the kitchen at all, and she had something to talk about, so she naturally didn't want to waste her time in the kitchen.

Lin Zhenghua also walked out, and Lin Zhengjuan was waiting for this moment. She hurriedly followed her second brother and whispered as she walked: "Second brother, I'll ask you something, how much money does Xiaodong have? I heard that he has run a company now, and the money he earns in a year is enough! You have to remind Xiaodong that people outside are very bad now! Those vixen are trying to cheat money in different ways. Xiaodong is honest, don't be cheated! After all, it's up to you that your family knows the truth and trusts..."

Lin Zhenghua was so tired that she heard this. Last year, her family had a good harvest in the orchard. This girl borrowed 30,000 yuan on the excuse of buying a house at home. In fact, her family's conditions were much better than her own. At least when Lin Dong was in college, she wanted to borrow some money from her, hoping to make Lin Dong's tuition and living expenses more abundant, but she said "no"!

Lin Zhenghua knew very well about Lin Zhengjuan’s meaning. Didn’t he just want He Li to take a job in Lin Dong’s company and turn Lin Dong’s company into a family business?

This must not be done!

So Lin Zhenghua pretended to be confused: "Xiaodong is just a small fuss. He rarely tells us about his affairs, and we can't control it. When the child is grown up, he has his own ideas. If he can do it as big as you said, then it will definitely not only be Xiaodong's contribution, but also his collaborators. Since they can help Xiaodong, they naturally have the ability. They can't drive others away when the company is grown, right? Our Lin family can't do that kind of thing!"

Although Lin Zhenghua's voice was not high, his tone was firm and obviously undisputed.

In the inner room, Lin Baozhu was asking Lin Dong: "Xiaodong, I heard that you have already opened a company now... It is a good thing to have a promising future, but you must finish college! Our Lin family's ancestors had been a Jinshi and a high-ranking official, but later they declined. Now that you are in your generation, if you can get into college, you will have won the honor. You can't throw away your studies just by running a company. You can earn money later, but you must finish your studies. The old saying goes, 'Sharpening a knife will not delay chopping wood' is the reason..."

Lin Dong listened respectfully, but he didn't expect that the curtain would be lifted, and a young man ran in quickly. When he saw Lin Dong, his eyes lit up: "Brother Lin Dong, are you here? Let's go and ask you for help if you have something to do. Is your car driving over?"

Lin Dong looked at He Li and frowned. He Li was really spoiled and looked useless, without any politeness!
