Chapter 399 Lin Jianshe is stabbed in the heart

At this time, the waiter knocked on the door, and several people stopped talking, "Come in!"

"Mr. Gu, can we serve the dishes now?" Standing at the door was a middle-aged man who looked simple and honest.

"Xiao Chen, please serve the food! You've worked hard!" When Mr. Gu saw that the person coming was Xiao Chen, whom he knew, he smiled and gave the order.

The middle-aged man called Xiao Chen stood up and saluted.

"It is my honor to serve you!"

He was frightened by Liu Huizhen and Lin Jianshe. They didn't seem to ask their daughter,

What does Mr. Gu do? My daughter seemed to have mentioned that he was retired. She kept waiting until the dishes were served and the meal was over.

Lin Jianshe was still a little dazed. Old Master Gu knew what he was thinking. When the food was cleared away and the snacks were served, he said to Lin Jianshe:

"Xiao Lin, you and Xiao Liu really care about your children, otherwise you wouldn't be able to raise two outstanding children, Qingyan and Qingxuan.

We are a family that truly cares about our children. Look at me, your daughter-in-law."

As Mr. Gu said this, he pointed at Lu Wan'er. Lu Wan'er, who was talking to Liu Huizhen, was stunned and asked in confusion:

"Dad, what's wrong?"

"Nothing!" Mr. Gu replied.

He continued to say to Lin Jianshe: "Yizhou's mother, she has given birth to three children, including her eldest son and grandson. Look at her, she is still living like a girl! This is all because Yizhou's father spoils her."

When Gu Guodong heard his old man talking about his relationship with Lu Wan'er in front of a group of young people, he couldn't help but cough and wanted to interrupt their conversation.

Mr. Gu just glanced at him and ignored him, and continued to say to Lin Jianshe:

"I know what you're thinking. If your daughter gets married and becomes someone else's, you'll feel uncomfortable. But Xiaolin,

I want to tell you that, because of the way Yizhou's father dotes on his mother, Yizhou will only dote on Qingyan in the future and will not let the girl suffer any grievances.

Men in our Gu family are not allowed to bully their wives. First of all, it won't work in front of his parents. I won't let it go. Just put your mind at ease.

Let’s not talk about other things first, just talk about the fate of the two children. They knew each other when they went to the countryside and met each other at the best age. This is the fate they cherish for a lifetime. ”

Lin Jianshe nodded frequently when he heard what Mr. Gu said, but why did the topic go further and further away? What about marriage? What about married life? No, maybe they were talking about the wrong topic.

"Then let's put it this way. We'll arrange a marriage for the two children during the Chinese New Year, and they can decide on their own when to get married."

Lin Jianshe nodded habitually before he realized what he had agreed to. At this time, the others stopped chatting and were all looking at him and Mr. Gu.

Lin Jianshe wanted to cry but had no tears. He couldn't say in front of so many people that he didn't hear clearly and wanted to go back on his word.

He glanced at his wife, and seemed to see surprise in her eyes. He then looked at his daughter.

Lin Qingyan was very calm. She didn't show any excitement, nor did she show any resistance.

Lin Jianshe finally sighed in his heart, but still smiled and said to Mr. Gu:

"All listen to Uncle Gu!"

Old Master Gu was satisfied, and looked at his grandson proudly, as if to say, "Hurry up and learn, and thank me well. I will help you deal with the most difficult father-in-law."

Lin Jianshe agreed to the engagement of the two children, so the topic of conversation afterwards revolved around the engagement, and Mr. Gu did not interfere in this matter.

Lu Wan'er and Liu Huizhen discussed matters of concern. Considering that school was about to start and Yizhou was leaving Beijing tomorrow, they could only arrange the engagement during the New Year holiday.

This was the first meeting between the two sets of parents and it ended successfully.

After the end, Gu Yizhou's father left Beijing that afternoon and went back to work.

Gu Yizhou will also leave Beijing tomorrow to start his learning journey.

After returning home, Lin Jianshe went back to his room and slept for a long time. Lin Qingyan looked at Liu Huizhen with some concern.

"Mom, do you really not need to go see Dad?"

"Don't worry about him, he will figure it out himself. He has no guts to go back on his word!"

Liu Huizhen said this with some disdain, but still brought some fruits and food to Lin Jianshe.

After Liu Huizhen left, Ye Yi and Wang Lanlan came over and asked:

"Qingyan, did godmother and the others meet with Gu Yizhou's parents smoothly?"

"Well, it went pretty well."

After hearing Lin Qingyan say that everything went well, the two of them put their nervous hearts at ease.

"We were scared to death. Seeing godfather hiding in the room and not coming out, we thought something had happened. Hopefully everything goes well."

Lin Qingyan felt like laughing but also sad when she thought about how her father had agreed to the engagement without a clear mind.

"My dad promised Gu Yizhou's grandfather that he would get me and Yizhou engaged first."

"What? Godfather actually agreed?"

"Yes, isn't Godfather somewhat dissatisfied with Gu Yizhou?"

"Yes, so he is regretting now, regretting why he agreed so easily."

Lin Qingyan explained to her two sisters. Ye Yi and Wang Lanlan looked at each other. They seemed to understand their godfather’s feelings.

"Then he is already in the room. Does he really not need comfort?"

"My mom has gone to comfort her. It's okay. How are your sales today?"

So the children in the front yard were discussing how much they had sold and which styles were selling well, while Liu Huizhen in the backyard was busy planning the construction.

Lin Jianshe had originally thought it through, but he just felt embarrassed and didn't want to go out. But when his wife came, instead of comforting him, she stabbed him.

Lin Jianshe looked at Liu Huizhen in disbelief.

"What? You're not coming back with me?"

"Yes, my two children are in Beijing, and I don't have a job now. Why should I go back?" Liu Huizhen replied as a matter of course.

"But I have to go to work?" Lin Jianshe stopped lying down and sat up.

"You have to go to work, just go back!"

"The kids are going to start school soon, and you have nothing to do here, so why don't you come back with me? That way I can have a hot meal after get off work."

Seeing that Liu Huizhen was determined, Lin Jianshe pulled her hand and acted pitifully.

"Who said I have nothing to do? Not only do I have to set up a stall, I also have to open a dessert shop and a braised meat shop!"

Liu Huizhen was discussing opening a store with Lu Wan'er today. All the details have been planned. How could she give up for a man?

"Although there are still people setting up stalls in Liao City, they are still doing it covertly and don't dare to do it openly.

What's more, we have opened a shop and there is no such policy now." Lin Jianshe wanted to persuade his wife again.

"It is not allowed for individuals to run shops, but no one is in charge of setting up stalls. I have earned more than 1,000 yuan these days, which is your annual salary."

Liu Huizhen's words made Lin Jianshe a little sad, and he looked at his wife with grievance.

Liu Huizhen hesitated for a moment and said to Lin Jianshe, "If you really can't bear to leave us, why don't you go back and sell your job to someone else and open a stall and a store with me? What do you think?"

The more Liu Huizhen thought about it, the more she felt it was feasible. Her daughter had already bought three houses in Beijing. If she and Lao Lin could afford it, they could buy one.

If you can't afford to buy a house, you can live in the house next to your daughter's. When she gets married in the future, you won't disturb her small family.

“Sold your job?”

Lin Jianshe fell silent when he heard his wife's proposal. Work is their livelihood, how can he sell it at will?

Liu Huizhen retired early because she gave her job to her eldest son. Otherwise, Liu Huizhen would not have reached retirement age.

Lin Jianshe hesitated for a while but still did not agree.

"I can't lose my job for now. Let's wait and see. If you can really make money here, then I'll make more money. When I make enough for our retirement, I'll sell my job and come over to be with you."

Lin Qingyan thought Liu Huizhen came to comfort Lin Jianshe, but she didn't expect that they also discussed selling jobs.

If she had known, she would definitely have strongly supported Liu Huizhen and allowed Lin Jianshe to catch up with the first wave of people going into business in the early 1980s.
