Chapter 1191: Visiting the Xiang Family
Evening
After seeing Ye Juan off, Lin Chen was invited to a courtyard in Fuqiang Hutong, which was the second courtyard of the Xiang family. It was also the private residence of the Xiang family...
However, after the Xiang family moved to Jiangxi Province, they only returned to Beijing to do business and stay there for a while every year.
Xiang Nanfang felt sorry when she found out that Lin Chen had already started a family. But she was also happy that they could be friends in the future, after all, he had saved her mother. And she would need Lin Chen's help to continue the treatment in the future...
"Mom, don't worry! I know my limits. Do you think your daughter is stupid? We will still ask him to continue to prescribe medicine and give you acupuncture in the future! Is it okay for me to go and greet him? If I become friends with him, your and dad's health will be more guaranteed in the future. You don't have to bother Uncle Zhang every time!"
Xiang Nanfang kept on talking about a lot of truths, and his mother was speechless.
Although she knew that her daughter was deliberately looking for excuses to get close to Lin Chen, Xiang's mother really didn't want to expose her daughter.
"Okay, okay, you have so many excuses...but mom has already warned you! You can't fall into it...You are my daughter, and I know everything you think from your eyes. Don't try to deceive me..."
When Xiang's mother saw Lin Chen and her daughter standing together for the first time in the morning... she also thought they were a good match, but the boy had already started a family and a career... so the matter had to be dropped.
Xiang Nanfang knew in his heart that he should keep his distance, but men and women don't necessarily have to be husband and wife. There are many people who become good friends...
"I see! I'll go pick it up now, it's almost time!"
The little girl ran out as she spoke. The street lights were already on. Lin Chen sat in the car, waiting for Xiang Nanfang to pick him up...
After listening to the conversation between mother and daughter, Lin Chen just smiled lightly. Since you have come to Sijiu City, how can you run away... It's a joke.
If Xiang Nanfang could become a cadre in Sijiu City, she would be able to do well even if Lin Chen did not help and only relied on the Xiang family.
Just as Xiang Nanfang walked out of the alley, Lin Chen also got out of the car carrying the things he had prepared.
"Comrade Lin Chen, this way!"
Two young men met under a street lamp...
"I went to prepare the herbs, so I was a little late..."
Xiang Nanfang thought that this was medicine for my mother, so it didn't matter how late it was.
"It's not too late. My dad hasn't come back yet... My mom has already asked the driver to pick him up! Let's go home first..."
The two walked into the alley side by side...
"Comrade Xiang Nanfang, you only need to take one dose of this medicine once a day, boil three bowls of water into one bowl. I will check again after taking it for a few days."
The little girl held the medicine that the other person prepared for her mother like a baby...
"Hey, I remember! Comrade Lin Chen, you and Uncle Zhang are brothers, and my dad is not a man who cares about small matters. So from now on, shouldn't I call you uncle? I think we are about the same age!"
Xiang Nanfang stopped talking, she really couldn't say it out loud! She didn't want to be inferior to Lin Chen from the bottom of her heart.
"The generations cannot be messed up. I will definitely call your mother sister-in-law at the dinner table later. We are at home now, not at work... Of course you have to call me uncle."
Xiang Nanfang was already unhappy, and now seeing Lin Chen grinning evilly...she felt even more unhappy.
How can you be good friends with your uncles? That would be meaningless!
"Comrade Lin Chen, then... when there are people around, I will call you uncle, but when it's just the two of us, we can... we can call each other comrade, okay?"
Lin Chen looked at the little white rabbit that was about to eat the vegetables in his hand, so he simply shook his head.
"No, I don't have such a beautiful niece... What good can you give me?"
Xiang Nanfang hesitated for a moment, as if he had nothing to give him... Lin Chen was a higher-ranking official than himself, so he must have more extensive connections.
"What do you want? You saved my mother, so I can give you anything I have."
Lin Chen smiled and looked him up and down again.
"really?"
Xiang Nanfang suddenly felt guilty! She always felt that Lin Chen was going to come up with some bad ideas.
"Of course it's true, my mother loves me the most..."
At this time, Lin Chen sensed a car approaching from a distance...
"I'm just kidding, I promise you! You won't be in Forty-Nine City for long anyway. It doesn't matter what you shout, just go inside! Aren't you afraid of the cold?"
Xiang Nanfang immediately became happy when she heard this, but when she thought of what Lin Chen said that he couldn't stay for a few days, she started to have a headache again.
And Lin Chen just deliberately reminded her to make plans early... If you go back to Jinling to work, we won’t be able to see each other anymore!
"Don't worry, I went to college here... I just didn't know you two years ago! Let's go into the courtyard!"
Now that Lin Chen reminded him, Xiang Nanfang was already thinking about how they could meet more often.
……
项家
As soon as Lin Chen arrived at the gate, Xiang Chengfeng hurried over. At noon today, he had already found out a lot about Lin Chen... including his visit to Southeast Asia and his acquaintance with important figures in Haitangyuan, and many old leaders had received his medical treatment.
These are all things that Dean Zhang doesn't know, and Xiang Chengfeng doesn't dare to underestimate the other party at all now.
"Nanfang, wait for daddy!"
At this time, Lin Chen and Xiang Nanfang turned around at the same time...
Under the street light at the gate, Xiang Chengfeng saw Lin Chen and his daughter standing together for the first time, and he also felt that the young people were very well matched.
"Dad, this is Doctor Lin!"
After all, he is his elder and one level higher than himself... Lin Chen took the initiative to step forward and shake hands with the other party.
Old Xiang didn't dare to be so reserved. After all, the young man in front of him was not ordinary... He was more popular than himself! So he also stepped forward to shake hands with Lin Chen...
"Hello Comrade Lin Chen, I'm so sorry... I had two meetings in a row, so I came back late!"
Now Lin Chen's affinity is fully open, only if Xiang Nanfang can settle the old couple can he enter the city... The mother-in-law is basically no problem, and the father-in-law must also be defeated. If she only relies on Xiang Nanfang, she can't negotiate it herself.
"Uncle Xiang, you are too polite! Work is more important..."
The word "Uncle Xiang" made Xiang Chengfeng happy! At the same time, Xiang Nanfang was even more stunned... He just lied to himself that he wanted to be a brother to his father, but it turned out that he was still easy to talk to!
"Okay, okay, come in, come in. Lao Zhang may not be able to come today. He has guests to entertain at home, so today we are just our family."
Originally, Lao Xiang wanted to say "our family", but when he got so happy, he changed it to "we".
My daughter-in-law's illness was originally only for half a year, and now it's suddenly cured! Old Xiang can't help but be excited! Even big leaders are flesh and blood people, and the health of their families is the most important.
Lin Chen and Xiang Nanfang smiled at each other and walked into the yard together...
The little girl even deliberately bumped Lin Chen's arm with her arm to protest against him for lying to her.
The accompanying personal secretary was already arranging the dishes, and only Lin Chen and the Xiang family's three members were at the dinner table.
