Chapter 53 The old man
Chapter 53: Old Master
It was already past four o'clock in the afternoon when I saw off the last legal consultation client.
Lin Ye stretched, loosened his tie, and walked out of the conference room.
"It's over?" Sister Chen, the operation director, happened to pass by and said with a smile when she saw Lin Ye.
"Yeah, it's just over." Lin Ye nodded.
"Are you coming for dinner tonight?" Sister Chen invited.
"No, I won't go, everyone has fun." Lin Ye refused.
He doesn't like having dinner with people from law firms.
This group of people pays attention to pomp and go to dinner parties in big hotels and high-end restaurants. There are too many places like that, and Lin Ye would not go unless necessary.
Now a dinner party is a normal dinner party, and it is the same whether you go or not.
"You." Sister Chen shook her head with a chuckle, "Okay, let's go."
"bye."
Lin Ye returned to his desk to pack up his things. It was about five o'clock and was about to get off work.
"Why didn't you leave?" Lin Ye asked Chen Le, who was watching the beautiful girl video while packing his things.
"Waiting for the dinner," Chen Le said without looking back.
"Sister Chen has already gone?"
"She went to order a restaurant. We won't be there until after six o'clock. There is no way to have supper at five o'clock."
"That's right." Lin Ye nodded, "I'll leave first, I'm going to pick up my grandfather in my hometown."
"Isn't it still more than three months to celebrate the New Year? What's the hurry?"
"The old man is alone in his hometown, so it's better to take it early." Lin Ye said, and stood up with his briefcase.
"Go away."
“Slow down the road.”
"good."
...
Grandpa Lin Ye’s hometown is in Hefei. When he was young, he came to Beijing to work hard. Later, he returned to Hefei and met Grandma Lin Ye and gave birth to Lin’s father.
Lin's father passed the undergraduate, master's and doctoral degree program. After graduation, he worked as a doctor in Union Hospital, and then settled in Beijing.
The old man doesn't like to stay in Beijing where life is too fast, so he returns to his hometown Hefei, and returns to the place he knows with Grandma Lin Ye, and enjoys his old age.
I only come to Beijing every year during the Spring Festival.
It was originally Lin Ye and the others who came to Hefei, but the hospital was still very busy during the Chinese New Year. If they were there, it would be very troublesome. The old man didn't want his son to run around, so he asked Lin Ye to pick him up during the Spring Festival.
After leaving the law firm, Lin Ye drove to the airport.
I took a plane to Hefei and then returned by the high-speed train with the old man.
The driving is too slow, and the elderly don’t like to sit on the plane. This arrangement is the fastest and most convenient.
At around 7 o'clock in the evening, Lin Ye took the taxi to the old man's house and finally called Song Yuqi.
"Hey, brother." Song Yuqi's "rough" voice came from the receiver.
"It's really difficult to contact you." Lin Ye complained.
"whee."
"I'm here to Hefei to pick up my grandfather. You can take the time to videotape with my grandfather later." Lin Ye said.
"Tonight, I'll be around twelve o'clock tonight. Well, I'll be around 11 o'clock in China. At that time, I'll be at the dormitory. Then use your phone to video with my grandfather." Song Yuqi said.
"Okay. When will you go home?" Lin Ye asked.
"It's early February."
"The eighth day of the lunar month?" Lin Ye's voice suddenly rose.
"First!! Let's be slap!"
"Oh." Lin Ye then lowered his voice, "Don't forget grandpa's gift. This year marks the 50th anniversary of grandpa and grandma's marriage."
"Don't worry, I won't forget it." Song Yuqi said while patting her chest.
"I hope so, okay, I'll arrive, I won't tell you anymore."
"Bye-Bye."
After hanging up the phone with Song Yuqi and paying the fare, Lin Ye walked into this LC area.
Although houses are generally old, they are actually renovated.
Most of the people living here are elderly people, so it is natural that they cannot live in dangerous buildings.
The familiar one came to the old man's house and knocked on the door.
Click.
"Xiao Ye is here." Grandpa Lin opened the door and saw Lin Ye. He pulled Lin Ye into the room with a smile on his wrinkled face.
"Grandpa, have you packed your luggage?" Lin Ye called Grandpa Lin before coming and asked him to pack his luggage in advance.
"Carry it, what can I, an old man, have to clean up." Grandpa Lin said with a smile.
"Then let's go? I booked a high-speed rail ticket." Lin Ye said.
"Okay." The old man was not Moji's person, so he was very straightforward.
Lin Ye helped his grandfather pick up the suitcase, and the old man didn't need Lin Ye to help him, so it was easy for him to go up and downstairs.
The old man is over seventy years old, his body is still very strong, and his words are full of energy.
I took a taxi to Hefei South Station, picked up the tickets, and then went to the waiting room to wait for the arrival of the high-speed rail.
But there are no seats anymore.
This is also the norm for major high-speed rail stations.
"Grandpa, sit down." A young girl stood up and said to Grandpa Lin quickly.
"Hey, no, no, girl, sit down." Grandpa Lin waved his hand and said to the girl gently.
"It's okay, my car is coming soon. You can sit down and take a rest." The young girl said with a shake of her head.
"Grandpa, just sit down, they have good intentions," Lin Ye said at the right time.
"Okay, thank you girl." Grandpa Lin said with a smile.
"It's okay, it's okay." The young girl waved her hand quickly and glanced at Lin Ye beside her.
This guy just came back from the law firm and didn't have time to change his clothes. He was still wearing a suit. In this huge waiting room, it was particularly eye-catching.
"Thank you." Lin Ye nodded to the young girl and thanked her.
"It's okay, it should."
Lin Ye responded with a smile, and said nothing.
"Xiao Ye."
"grandfather."
"How is Yuqi doing in Korea?" Grandpa Lin asked.
"She is very good and has a good job. I also have a few friends who are her seniors. You can help me take care of her." Lin Ye replied.
"It's good if it's going well, it's good if it's going well."
"Yuqi has time tonight, so you can chat with her when the time comes." Lin Ye said with a smile.
"OK."
"The xxx train heading to Beijing is about to arrive..." Lin Ye heard the voice broadcast and took out the ticket and took a look, "Grandpa, we are this train, let's go."
"Oh, OK."
Without Lin Ye's support, the old man stood up and boarded the train along the crowd.
Lin Ye bought a first-class seat. If he wasn't afraid that the old man would say he was extravagant and wasted, he would want to buy a business seat.
There is no way, the old man will definitely ask him about his family on the way, and there are too many people around him, which is inconvenient.
After putting the suitcase on top, Lin Ye sat down.
The two sat in two seats on the right, and Lin Ye sat in the corridor so that people passing by would not meet the old man.
The old man smiled and looked at his eldest grandson.
