Chapter 314 Ginseng

Li Jin never expected that the embarrassing thing that made Li Chengzhao frown and hesitate to speak would be such an embarrassing thing.

Li Jin was immediately dumbfounded.

"Uncle Su is a very easy-going person and has no temper. He is easy to get along with. It would be better for us to be more casual, otherwise it will look too polite."

Unexpectedly, Li Jin's words attracted Li Chengzhao's glare.

"What nonsense are you talking about? We need to follow etiquette and understand the rules. Although this time is not a marriage proposal or an appointment, it is the first meeting between parents of both parties. How can we be casual?"

Seeing that Li Chengzhao really attached great importance to this matter, Li Jin had no choice but to say: "Then let's prepare some gifts?"

Li Chengzhao raised his eyebrows again and said, "I am a rich man, and I have never seen any gifts before. If I give you some cigarettes, alcohol, etc., I'm afraid it will make people laugh... Forget it, I'll go back and ask the clan members Old man, what should I do in this situation?"

Li Jin sighed and said: "Dad, why are you so nervous? You have to know that although Uncle Su is already well-known in the province as the richest man in the provincial capital, your son is not bad now. We are not trying to reach high. It’s necessary to be so nervous.”

"What? He is the richest man in the provincial capital!?" When Li Chengzhao heard this sentence, he directly skipped all the content that followed and said with wide eyes.

For Li Chengzhao, who had been farming all his life and before Li Jin came out, it was difficult to see bundles of hundred-yuan bills. In his concept, the richest man in the provincial capital was almost the same as the emperor... They all sounded the same. A big shot I've never heard of.

"It used to be, but now, it's probably your son and me." Li Jin said with a smile in order to relieve Li Chengzhao's pressure and inferiority complex.

Li Chengzhao, however, glared at Li Jin and said, "You are young, don't raise your tail just because you have some achievements. How can you compare to someone who has worked hard for decades?"

Seeing that Li Chengzhao didn't believe it, Li Jin had no choice.

Judging from all the cash, shares, movables and real estate, Li Jin estimates that he can now touch even the top three richest people in the country, not to mention the richest man in Southeast Province.

However, it is better to keep these things low-key so that the wealth is not revealed.

"Dad, I'm serious. It doesn't need to be too grand. Just think of it as me introducing you to an ordinary friend. He will definitely not look down on you just because you are a farmer, and you can't restrain yourself just because he is the richest man. Just do whatever you want." Li Jin advised.

Li Chengzhao had a sullen face and remained silent for a while before saying, "You said it so easily... Forget it, I can't discuss anything with you. I'd better discuss it with your mother and then ask the elders in the clan. "

"My mother and the elders in the clan have experience in dealing with the richest man in the provincial capital, and even getting married?" Li Jin said happily.

Li Chengzhao took out a box of cigarettes, threw one to Li Jin naturally, and said, "I'll call your cousin later and ask him to take out the old wild ginseng that they have at home for more than a hundred years. This kind of thing Even if you have money, you can’t buy it, so it should be okay.”

"That's an heirloom of their family. How can my cousin be willing to part with it?" Li Jin said happily.

"Why are you reluctant?" Li Chengzhao glared, "You arranged his son's career. It's just a piece of old wild ginseng. It's not like we don't want to give him money. What's there to be reluctant to part with? I'll take care of this matter. Don't worry about it. ”

"Dad, who taught me when I was a child that you should never ask others to repay kindness to you?" Li Jin crossed his legs and asked.

Li Chengzhao's face turned dark and he raised his voice, "Can it be the same? This is to meet your future in-laws, your future father-in-law. This kind of thing, of course, depends on the situation. The current situation is very urgent, and there is no time to pay attention to that."

……

While Li Jin and Li Chengzhao were talking, they were in a Wal-Mart supermarket in the west of Tianfeng City.

Su Wanqing and Liu Xiufang were talking and laughing while picking things, while Liu Jun followed not far away, always on guard against anyone approaching them.

After Liu Jun scared a little girl to tears for the second time, Su Wanqing said helplessly to Liu Jun: "Ajun, can't your expression be gentler? Look, the little girl was scared by you just now."

Liu Jun said innocently: "I didn't scare her on purpose. I just looked at her a few times and thought she was quite cute."

"You don't know how scary your eyes are." Liu Xiufang said with a smile and picked up a rubber pillow that has just become popular in a very small area in China.

"Wan Qing, do you think these rubber pillows are useful? Ah Jin's father has a cervical spondylosis. He always has trouble sleeping if the pillow is not suitable. I heard that these rubber pillows are quite useful and make him sleep comfortably."

Su Wanqing said in surprise: "Uncle Li has a bad cervical spine? Have you gone to the hospital?"

Liu Xiufang smiled and said: "What are you looking at? It's been an old problem for decades. It's hard work. In the past, the two of us had to plant several acres of fields. We would have to work in the fields hunched over every day. How much would it cost to work?" I have some cervical and lumbar spine problems, which are not good."

Su Wanqing chose the best rubber pillow and put it in the cart, and said, "Then just buy one for now. I have a friend abroad. I'll ask her to send me an overseas one later."

"No need to bother." Liu Xiufang said hurriedly.

Su Wanqing smiled and said: "Why are you so polite to me? It's all trivial."

Liu Xiufang looked at the rows of shelves in the supermarket and asked naturally: "What else is missing in your home? Let's buy some for you to take back."

Su Wanqing smiled and said: "No need, auntie, I have everything, I'm not lacking."

Liu Xiufang disagreed and said: "I heard from A Jin that your mother left early and your father worked so hard to raise you up alone. He is a grown man, but you are a girl and have not yet taken care of yourself." Housework, how can you two know what is missing at home?"

"I'd better buy some for you. It's the end of the year and it's time to replace them with new ones."

Su Wanqing was stunned for a moment, took Liu Xiufang's hand, and said movedly: "Thank you."

I don't know how many years have passed, Su Wanqing has become accustomed to her life without her mother's care, but with Liu Xiufang, she once again felt the care and intimacy that father's love could not give.

This is the unique tenderness of a mother.

For Su Wanqing, who has lost maternal love for more than ten years, this kind of tenderness in every detail is the most touching.

Liu Xiufang patted the back of Su Wanqing's hand and said softly: "I will be your mother from now on, so don't be polite to me."

"Yes!" Su Wanqing nodded heavily and responded with a bright smile.

The two pushed the shopping cart to the checkout counter and were queuing up. Su Wanqing suddenly noticed a man staring at her in the queue next door.

"Are you... Su Wanqing!? Is it really you? I still dare not recognize you!" The young and handsome man said to Su Wanqing in surprise.
