Chapter 373: Unparalleled National Scholars
If the city of Donghai gives people the feeling of being a petty bourgeoisie, the city of Chang'an gives people the feeling of being a heavy person, then the city of Western Shu gives people the feeling of being a lazy person.
This is a leisure city with a developed economy but a slow pace of life. It is not as fierce as other big cities. Everyone seems to be very content and is more willing to enjoy life and life comfortably.
No wonder so many people come and don’t want to leave.
How lucky are the people living in this city.
However, the city's development speed is not slow, and its total economic output steadily ranks among the top five in the federal government, so there are many rich people here, with many luxury houses and rich areas.
Lushan Luhu Lake, the southernmost end of Tianfu Avenue in Xishu, is a newly rich area in Xishu. Almost all high-end villa communities are high-end villa communities. For example, the villa where Lin Xi's grandparents live is worth hundreds of millions.
All villas in the community are located on a small island in the lake. Each villa has a private pier and you can drive a yacht to go home.
Lin Xi's grandparents moved here a few years ago. Her grandparents no longer care about trivial matters, and her grandmother is focused on studying science. She moved here because she is unwilling to be disturbed.
Although today is grandma's birthday, grandma doesn't want to hold a banquet too high-profile, so she just called on her closest children and grandchildren to come back and have fun.
Early in the morning, the villa was already full of people. Lin Xi's two uncles, aunts and their children were all back. Lin Xi is the youngest junior among her grandparents and the most favored one.
It seems that the youngest children are like this.
The design of this villa is very modern, with irregular geometric shapes and adopts a large number of floor-to-ceiling windows, striving to integrate with the surrounding natural environment to the greatest extent.
From this we can see that Lin Xi’s grandmother and grandpa are not the kind of conservative and old-fashioned people, and are willing to take the initiative to get in touch with new things.
Lin Xi’s grandfather and grandmother are just the opposite. They prefer to live in the Lin family’s old house at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain, as if this is the only way to show their unique identities.
When Lin Xi accompanied her parents to the villa, everyone else stood up and greeted him enthusiastically. Who made the Lin family a wealthy family in the southwest region? Which of these relatives did not rely on the Lin family?
Lin Xi's father is Lin Wang. He is 1.8 meters tall and looks quite calm and experienced. However, he doesn't seem very enthusiastic when facing Lin Xi's uncle and aunt, and he greets him calmly.
He is the most capable successor of the Lin family, and Mr. Lin also values him the most. He is now responsible for most of the Lin family's business, so no matter whether it is the Lin family or Lin Xi's uncle and aunt, everyone has to take the initiative to curry favor with him.
Lin Xi's mother is Ning Qing. Although she is over 40 years old, she still has charm. She looks quite intellectual in her professional outfit. She is currently the head of the largest law firm in the southwest region. This is not only because of Lin Xi's grandma's relationship, but more importantly, the Lin family's help in the future.
Lin Xi's personality followed her mother, and Ning Qing was obviously colder, so she asked casually: "Where is the old man and the old lady?"
"The old man went out to play chess, and the old lady called upstairs. You know she can't answer the phone every year." Lin Xi's uncle Ning Jianyi replied with a smile. He is the representative of the Ning family's mud that cannot be supported by the wall. Lin Xi's parents have often wiped his butt.
Ning Qing said lightly: "You guys talk first, I'll go upstairs to see the old lady."
In the kitchen, two aunts and aunts were staring at the birthday party at noon. Although there were only three tables of people, they still invited the chef of Jinjiang Hotel to come and take care of it. Who made the old man and the old lady have a special liking for Jinjiang Hotel?
Ning Jianyi sneakily pulled Lin Wang out and said, "Brother-in-law, come out, I'll tell you something small."
Lin Wang had some headaches. This brother-in-law is not a good-for-nothing person. He either owes gambling debts or sleeps with his wife. I really don’t know how the old man and the old lady taught such a son?
Lin Xi looked at his uncle Ning Jianhe on the sofa and greeted: "Uncle, have you gone abroad? Are you back so soon?"
"Your grandma's birthday is rare, the family is so lively. Can I not come back?" Ning Jianhe, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, laughed. He was the only big boss in the Ning family within the system. Now he is the top leader of a department in Shuzhou Prefecture. It depends on whether he can be upgraded to another level before retirement.
At this time, a middle-aged man next to Ning Jianhe who was a little sickly and pale with glasses asked: "Lin Xi, how about you at Chang'an University? Have you ever been in love?"
"Uncle, you made fun of me again. I promised my parents not to fall in love in college." Lin Xi said obediently.
This middle-aged man is her uncle Huang Maoxue, a Phoenix man with no background, but his abilities are outstanding. If he were not in the system and his uncle was ignorant, he would not have become the head of the Ningjia Family Company.
Huang Maoxue shook his head and sighed, "Oh, your parents are so rigid. When will you fall in love if you don't fall in love in college?"
Ning Jianhe glanced at Huang Maoxue and reminded him kindly: "Maoxue, don't say this in front of Lin Wang and Ning Qing. The Lin family has too many rules."
"Am I just complaining?" Huang Maoxue laughed.
Ning Jianhe waved his hand and said, "Your cousin and the others are all downstairs, you go and play with them."
Lin Xi chuckled and said, "I'll go see grandma first."
After saying that, he carried the box and went upstairs. Ning Jianhe still muttered: "Lin Xi is still very considerate. He prepares gifts for the old lady every year. Unlike our children, we know that we are bothering the old lady."
Lin Xi had just gone upstairs and Ning Qing happened to come out of the study. Lin Xi asked casually: "Grandma is in the study?"
"Well, I just finished the phone call with his proud disciple." Ning Qing said in a deep voice, then went downstairs in high heels.
Lin Xi slowly walked into the study with a gift and deliberately scared him: "Grandma."
In front of the floor-to-ceiling window, an old lady wearing a cheongsam with silver hair but still outstanding temperament was bathed in the sun. She covered her chest and said, "Oh, you damn girl, grandma is almost scared by you."
Lin Xi put down the gift and ran over and hugged the old lady directly and said, "Grandma, you are so beautiful today."
"My heart-wrenching little baby is just good at talking, and grandma even said to go and find you." Although she was thin and wrinkled, she was still so delicate and patted her granddaughter's shoulder and spoiled.
Lin Xi said coquettishly: "Grandma, I miss you so much."
"Grandma isn't here? You little girl." The old lady hooked the tip of her granddaughter's nose and smiled kindly.
Lin Xi's smile became brighter and brighter, and then she helped her grandma sit on the sofa.
The old lady frowned when she saw the box on the table and said, "You girl, grandma said you don't need to prepare gifts, why are you preparing gifts again?"
Lin Xi pouted and stared at the old lady and said, "Grandma, this time it is not the gift I prepared for you. Guess who gave you the gift?"
"Who gave me the gift? I have to guess?" the old lady said with a suspicion.
Lin Xi said coquettishly: "Grandma, guess quickly, you will definitely not guess."
The old lady stared at her granddaughter and looked again and again. She quickly guessed the answer from the smile on her face and the pride in her eyes. Who made her know this granddaughter better than anyone else?
"Are you in love?" the old lady asked in a low voice.
Lin Xi said in shock: "Grandma, why did you guess it right away?"
This made Lin Xi, who had originally wanted to keep him in silence, instantly lost his sense of accomplishment. Grandma didn't expect it to be so amazing, but she forgot that her grandma was the Taishan Beidou in the legal field, and her mind was not comparable to ordinary people.
"You, what the little brain is thinking, I will know as soon as I guess your grandma." The old lady said disapprovingly.
Lin Xi muttered, "Grandma, you're so boring."
"Tell me quickly, what does that boy look like? Is it handsome?" The old lady said very caringly, just as Lin Xi said to Su Qin.
When he said this, he looked out of the study and said, "Your parents must not know, right?"
Lin Xi said truthfully: "How dare I tell them? Grandma, you must keep it secret. I will just tell you secretly."
"Don't you know who grandma is?" the old lady said in a deep voice.
Lin Xi did not rush to introduce Su Qin, but took the box and said, "Grandma, let's talk about him later. Let's take a look at the gift he prepared for you first. He said he wrote a picture of the words for you personally. I don't know how it was written. Don't dislike it if it doesn't look good."
The old lady sighed: "This child is already very considerate to take the initiative to prepare gifts for me. Is grandma the kind of person who is ungrateful?"
Lin Xi smiled and nodded, "Grandma, you are the best."
After saying that, he opened the box uneasy and slowly took out the bitch-like letter from it. Although Su Qin was full of confidence on the phone, Lin Xi was really not confident about Su Qin's words.
At this time, Lin Xi spread the scroll slowly on the ground.
When the characters were completely opened, four big characters were written on the top rice paper: The national hero is unparalleled.
In an instant, the majestic atmosphere of these four big characters came to the face. The font was vigorous and powerful, and it was not a word that ordinary people could write. Even some so-called masters who seek fame and reputation were ashamed of themselves.
