Chapter 75 It's hard to calm
In a blink of an eye, it was late autumn. When Bai Shu'an's car circled to the gate of Luoyuan, the gloomy sky actually began to rain in autumn. The weather in November, in waves of autumn rain, finally gradually cooled down.
After lunch, she came directly to the room to rest as usual, but today she seemed to pay more attention to the scenery outside the window.
Not long after, in a misty drizzle, through the slanting and intertwined Nuo Dahuayuan, she saw the vehicle driven by Qiangui slowly appear on the shady in the distance, and finally slowly got into the garage.
After a while, she saw Jingmin, dressed in red, coming out of the garage.
Bai Shu'an knew that Jingmin was a person who could not hide her mind. Maybe she didn't need to take the initiative to test, and Jingmin would bring it to her door by herself. So he turned around and sat next to the piano and began to play an exercise song.
The sound of gentle music flowing from the fingertips is like a dim drizzle outside the window, falling quietly in the yellowing grass leaves, calm and calm...
Her eyes fixedly locked the white lacquer carved wooden door not far away. She wanted to make herself as calm as possible, but she couldn't restrain her inexplicable restlessness. Fortunately, she didn't wait for a long time, and soon saw Jingmin standing by the door sadly.
Extremely naturally, he stopped playing, got up and walked to the sofa, happened to meet her approaching body, and held her to sit down on the noble concubine's couch. Her words were kind but worried, "How did you answer the phone, and it suddenly disappeared."
Jing Min's mind was a little in a trance. After mechanically listening to her sitting down together, she gradually recovered. How could a pair of red purple grape-like swollen eyes hide it from others? She lowered her head and thought for a moment and muttered, "It's all my mother's fault. She rebuked me fiercely on the phone. She was not in a good mood. OK, just vent your anger on me... As soon as I was angry, I hung up her phone and asked Qiangui to take me around the city..."
"Oh, that's it." Bai Shu was a little frustrated. She thought that after this period of hard work, Jingmin had regarded her as the closest person. Such a major thing would definitely be shared with her, but it turned out that she overestimated herself.
The hand on her shoulder gently combed the scattered hair on her cheeks, and her tone was as soft as ever: "Mom, she should be too worried about you. I used to see you every day, and you can take care of anything at any time. Now that they are so far away, there must be ten thousand uneasy things in her heart. Occasionally, when she is in a bad mood, she says something serious, and you should also try to understand her.
"Hmm." Jingmin unconsciously leaned into her arms, as if looking for a reassuring comfort, and her hoarse voice was a trace of pet. "I didn't understand what my sister-in-law said before, but after the recent test, I really felt it deeply."
"Jingmin, what kind of person is your mother in your eyes?"
"My mother, of course she is a strong woman!" The body leaning on her shoulder suddenly moved, and there was no doubt about her tone. Without looking closely, Bai Shu'an could imagine the unique pride on her face.
"Since the death of her grandfather, my mother has taken over the Ruan Group. Over the years, she has worked hard for Ruan, and I don't know how many wrinkles on her face have come out. Hey, it is because of her dedication that I have always lived this carefree princess life."
Bai Shu moved at ease. What about the Luo family? Can it be said that Ruan Lingqiu and Luo Tianqi have been independent in the United States for many years, hosting the two major conglomerates of Ruan and Luo respectively?
I was more confused, but I saw Jingmin suddenly break away from her arms. A strange glow suddenly appeared on her face that had been miserable before. She stared at her with a pair of big red and swollen eyes and shouted, "Oh, sister-in-law, you probably haven't heard of my grandfather's name. He used to be the leader of the Overseas Chinese Chamber of Commerce in the United States, and also Ruan Ruan Zhenge, the founder of the group, wants to talk about my grandfather's brilliant deeds. Even if I say it last day and night, I can't finish it.
"Ruan Zheng'e!" If the name had been placed half a year ago, Bai Shu'an would naturally not recognize it. However, when she was learning in Professor Lian's economics class this summer vacation, she occasionally mentioned it, because this person was the first to launch Chinese cuisine in the United States in the form of a chain hotel and achieved great success. Finally, she set up a group and went public at once. Famous Chinese entrepreneur.
Speaking of this Ruan family, there are quite a few stories to tell. It is said that Ruan Zheng'e's ancestors had several high-ranking officials. In this way, until his father's generation was still working for the emperor, and naturally accumulated a lot of wealth.
It's just that when Ruan Zheng'e was young, it coincided with the change of the world. The Ruan family, who was once powerful and rich, fell. Although Ruan Zheng'e was young, he had a long-term vision and dared to do it. He came to the United States alone with a small amount of belongings left in his family. With his unique insights and foresight, he founded a company. The industry was finally successful and very inspirational.
Therefore, his name has now been put on the list of celebrities of domestic entrepreneurs, as a model and model for the younger generation who want to work hard on the road of business in the future.
Thinking that this person was Ruan Lingqiu's father and Jing Min's own grandfather, Bai Shu was also a little clear about why Luo Tianqi and his son were in awe of Ruan Lingqiu.
At this moment, Bai Shu'an took back his thoughts and tried to make a surprised look. He sighed, "I didn't expect that the famous Chinese entrepreneur Ruan Zheng'e was your grandfather. I heard the teacher mention that he should have started a business by running a hotel business, right?"
"Yes, the Tangren Restaurant founded by my grandfather has more than 100 chain stores in the United States. The famous Chinese dish 'Desert Wind and Sand Roast Beef' prepared by the century-old secret recipe of the Tangren Restaurant is a must-have dish for every guest. It has been popular for half a century... It's a pity..."
The brilliance on Jingmin's face and the lofty ambition in his mouth turned into deep sadness with this sentence. He lowered his eyes reproachfully. In a short time, two drops of crystal tears oozed from the long eyelashes like feather fans on both sides.
"I was only three years old when my grandfather died, and his deeds were basically told to me by my mother. I have been held in the palm of my parents since I was a child. Everyone wants me to be three points. I am a spoiled and arrogant little princess in my family.
I hate that my mother talks about her business every time she sits down. What I want to do is not so boring...
I want to be a painter, a teacher, a news producer, and a fashion designer. Those are the ideal professions I once had...
Yes, none of my ideals are related to business..."
Jingmin's voice was choked, and tears couldn't stop falling from the long eyelashes, which was more dense than the autumn rain outside the window.
"This time I want to stay in Yuncheng. I thought that my mother would not agree. She always hoped that I could inherit the family business, but I knew that I was not the material to do business. My resistance and rebellion had left her helpless... How good it would be if I could do as my brother, my mother would not have such a big problem. You have to do everything you can to hide it from me..."
Perhaps because I have been used to enjoying the peace and happiness given by my mother and family for many years, on this day, when the terrible bad news suddenly came, the little princess in front of me could not bear it at all.
Perhaps she was blaming herself for not being able to relieve the crisis. Jingmin became very excited. She buried her head deep in her arms and held it into a small, tight ball in the sofa.
However, the contradictions accidentally revealed in her words rippled in Bai Shu's peace of mind. Why did Ruan Lingqiu hide the truth from her?
By the way, Jingmin and Luo Hanfeng mentioned a name when talking in the office, Uncle William...
So, it's not Ruan Lingqiu who called today. Yes, how can she be willing to let Jing Minna follow her in a deep worry...
So who is this "Uncle William"?
At this time, the petite man on the sofa also seemed to realize his mistake. He slowly raised his head, covered his wet eyes with both hands, sucked his nose hard, and then his body trembled slightly. He explained to himself, "I mean, my mother's temper is always so stubborn. If there is any problem, he likes to put it into his stomach. Swallow. Although she wants me to go back, she is more supportive of me to do what I like, just like today... I shouldn't be angry with her. After talking to herself, she tried to squeeze out a far-fetched smile at Bai Shu'an.
Bai Shu'an wiped away the remaining tears on the petite cheek with her warm palm. Although she didn't know the truth of the incident from her mouth, her pity for her was out of sincerity. "It seems that your mother really pushed you too hard. Why don't I play a song and relax for you? I've been working hard these days. I have studied hard, but I have made a lot of progress.
Fortunately, Bai Shu'an didn't see the flaw, and then Jing Min, who burst into tears and laughed, finally took a deep breath at ease and said with a grateful smile, "Sister-in-law, thank you, I'm much better."
"Don't thank me so early. I'll play it later. Just don't think my piano skills are too bad..."
"Ha ha, a famous teacher is a good apprentice. I believe in my brother's ability." A playful laughter resounded in her ears, and Jingmin finally regained a little of her former beauty. Bai Shu also calmed down a little. She returned to the piano and played a solo song of daily practice.
The sound of the piano is melodious, and the strands float in all directions, which sets off the attention of the two personalities in the room.
Bai Shu'an's heart is entangled with unspeakable loneliness.
Luo Jingmin, the first bosom friend she made after entering Luoyuan, she doesn't know if she can continue this warmth from today on...
However, even if she can't, all she can do is to keep moving forward...
