The Qin family has a small three-story foreign-style building with a small courtyard in the center of the courtyard.
It is late autumn now, and the flowers and plants in the yard are drooping and lifeless.
"Dad, this is Yanhong I mentioned to you, this is her husband Li Boshan, and this little guy, Li Lehang."
Mou Lin calmly brought the family of three to the living room and introduced them to Qin Zhan, who was sitting at the dining table reading a newspaper.
"Hello, grandpa."
Qin Zhan raised his head and was stunned when he saw Feng Yanhong. He took off his reading glasses and nodded: "Hello, sit down, don't be formal."
"Xiao Lin, Xiao Zheng, take good care of the guests."
Although Qin Zhan said polite words, he also looked very stern.
As soon as the couple sat down, Qin Zhan put down the newspaper within a few minutes.
"I'm going out to meet my chess friends and play two games of chess. You're welcome at home."
Feng Yanhong could see that Qin Zhan's expression was as gentle as possible.
Mou Lin sent Qin Zhan out of the door and smiled gently, "Let Xiao Zheng sit with you while I go to the kitchen to prepare the meal."
"Auntie, let me help you."
Mou Lin was not polite and agreed readily. Feng Yanhong followed her into the kitchen. Only Qin Zheng and Li Boshan were left in the living room on the first floor.
"Let's... kill each other?" Qin Zheng had a hurried round with him last time and was unwilling to lose. He never had a chance to avenge his shame. Today is just the day.
"Just one game, just one game." Li Boshan smiled very confidently.
There were only two people in the kitchen, Feng Yanhong and Mou Lin, talking softly.
The Wang family's fortune was almost revealed by her, from where the Wang family came from, to how the Wang family made their fortune, to the development history of their family, every detail was left out.
Feng Yanhong found out some things, but she really didn't know some things.
Some seemingly insignificant gossip, but she filtered out a few pieces of information.
Today's Wang family looks like a tree with deep roots and luxuriant branches. In fact, there are many dead branches and leaves, very rotten, and the ground is a mess.
He looked back at Li Lehang and Xiaodouzi, who were having fun and didn't need anyone to look after them.
Feng Yanhong listened calmly and occasionally said a few words. Mou Lin kept talking about the three sisters of the Wang family and the brothers Wang Sheng and Wang Sheng.
"Wang Sheng's kid is pretty good. If his father hadn't passed away, the Wang family might not be able to be like this."
"Hey~ Your Uncle Qin is back. Today's meeting will end quickly."
Mou Lin caught a glimpse of the car parked in front of the door, wiped her hands and walked out of the kitchen.
Feng Yanhong looked at Mou Lin's back and couldn't explain the feeling in her heart. Are these words unintentional or intentional?
We can only continue to look at Qin Zhao's attitude.
Before the food was served, Qin Zhan entered the house with his hands behind his back. When he saw his son and grandson sitting and standing, their brows were furrowed. He looked at the chessboard at home and instantly became interested.
"These two stinky chess players, aren't they embarrassing?" Qin Zhan looked at the tragic chess game and was almost heartbroken.
"Grandpa, please stop talking. I think this game can still be resolved." Qin Zheng lost three games in a row and replaced his father. He only narrowly won one game because of Li Boshan's humility.
"What a fool! You solve it, I'll see if I can catch you." Two stinky chess pieces, a father and a son, can solve a fool without even being able to spot the trap!
Qin Zhan stood aside with his hands behind his back, his eyes full of eagerness.
The father and son thought about it again and again, and even discussed it for a few words. However, they failed to take a step forward, and ended up in disastrous failure.
"Get out of here!" Qin Zhan was gearing up as if he hated iron. He had already rolled up his sleeves and was ready to fight.
"If grandpa loses, don't get angry and curse. We are guests." Qin Zheng knew his grandpa's temper very well. It is very common for him to curse when he loses.
Li Boshan's expression was shocked, and his hands that were cleaning up the chess game paused.
"Nonsense, is your grandfather a sore loser?"
The brat dared to dismantle him!
"Your name is...Boshan, right? Come and fight with Grandpa Qin, but don't hide your secrets!"
Li Boshan regained his composure and nodded with a faint smile.
"The food is about to be served..." Mou Lin came out with two plates of cold dishes but was stopped by Qin Zhao.
"Wait a moment, serve it later."
Qin Zhao was a little distracted as he spoke. He glanced at his wife and then returned to the chessboard.
Mou Lin naturally knew the old man's temper. If he was asked to close the table now, he would definitely lose his temper.
I could only put the dishes somewhere else first. I turned around and looked at the men in the living room, and pursed my lips helplessly.
"I really don't know what the charm is on that chessboard. After our old man retired from the army, he never played chess even a day ago. Even when he was hospitalized for recuperation last year, he asked the guards to bring the chessboard to him."
"It would be quite interesting if you can learn it." Feng Yanhong's skills are not very good, but she thinks she is pretty good at playing chess.
Mou Lin shook her head in confusion. Anyway, she had no interest in that thing.
Qin Zhan and Li Boshan were so jealous in the chess game that almost an hour passed and it was difficult to tell the winner.
When Fu Minrong walked in and saw the scene in the living room, she simply didn't bother him, put down her bag and went into the kitchen.
"Hahaha...win!" Qin Zhan pointed at the chess game and laughed loudly. The Qin family's father and son also laughed together with a smile on his face.
"Huh? That's not right! You kid let it slip on purpose!" Qin Zhan looked at the chess game carefully and became unhappy.
"How could it be possible? Grandpa Qin was superior in skills and I was negligent for a moment." Li Boshan waved his hands with a natural expression.
"Really?" Qin Zhan was doubtful.
"Then let's play another game. I always feel that you are hiding something secret."
"Grandpa, it's time for dinner. We can't let our guests play chess with you while they're hungry, right?" Qin Zheng quickly stopped him.
Qin Zhan frowned and saw the dishes placed on the coffee table in the distance. He pointed at Li Boshan and said, "Then you kid, don't run away after dinner."
"Don't run away. I'll play a game with you after dinner." After one game of chess, Li Boshan had almost seen the grandfather's temper. If he didn't play with him, he might chase him back to his home.
Qin Zhan smacked his mouth. He said that the game was a bit short, and he was worried that this kid would run away if he talked too much.
At the dinner table, Qin Zhao looked at Feng Yanhong calmly, but never mentioned anything about the Wang family.
But Mou Lin took the lead and said, "Dad, I plan to accept Yanhong as my goddaughter. Do you have any objections?"
Feng Yanhong's heart was in her throat. After entering the house, Aunt Mou didn't mention it again. She thought she just wanted to give her some face.
Unexpectedly, she wanted to make it impossible for her to refuse. If Grandpa Qin agreed, she would no longer be able to refuse, otherwise she would slap the Qin family in the face.
Qin Zhan looked at Mou Lin, then turned to Qin Zhao, and said loudly: "I don't have any opinions on your own affairs, but you have to ask other people's opinions, as well as their parents' opinions."
Qin Zhao's face showed a moment of surprise and a bit of embarrassment, and he quickly agreed: "You are right, you have to ask the other person's parents about this matter."
Qin Zhan ate with his eyes lowered, with a businesslike tone.
"Well, if someone's parents agree, then your etiquette must be the same. Do things according to the rules and don't let anyone blame you."
"That's for sure, dad, don't worry." Mou Lin knew that the old man agreed, she smiled and patted Feng Yanhong's hand.
"Auntie is going to visit your mother tomorrow. Auntie, she really likes you."
