Chapter 228 Lu Xiaoman is targeted by Lin Lichen
After a few days, Gu Cangnan also had his holiday and stayed at home to take care of the children. Lin Rou went to deal with some company matters and came back to rest and prepare to come over.
Every year, we celebrate the New Year at Lin Rou's house. Xu Yang and his family will also prepare some things and bring out any delicious food.
Lu Xiaoman is back too. It's time for him to take some time off during the New Year. He will be 13 years old next year, and he still has 18 years to go before he turns 5.
When he came back, he went to see his young wife again. This time, Tang Zixin came up to him and asked, "Why do you always peek at me?"
Lu Xiaoman smiled and said, "Do you believe me if I say I am the man in your previous life?"
Tang Zixin was shocked, but she didn't doubt his words because he had been visiting her for many years. "But I'm still young, and I don't know if I will be with you in the future. You'd better not come. You're like a ghost."
She was still arrogant. Lu Xiaoman was unhappy: "I am a human, how can I be a ghost?"
"You remember things from your past life. If it's not a ghost, then what is it? It's creepy and scary."
The more Tang Zixin thought about it, the more scared she became: "I'm leaving, don't come back!"
She ran into the yard carrying her things and closed the door.
Lu Xiaoman was so resentful. It seemed that it would not be easy to find a young wife in this life!
But he hasn't grown up yet, so it's useless to think about it. He should go back and take care of his younger brothers and sisters.
After getting home and getting ready, he went to his aunt's house. His sister was also there. He went out to work, so Lu Xiaoqing was basically at Xu Yang's house.
Xu Yang and his wife raised her as their daughter-in-law, because Xu Mo Nian said that Lu Xiaoqing was his wife, and the two adults took it seriously.
Lu Xiaoqing and her friends would visit their younger siblings every day, play on the playground, go see the monkeys, etc. They lived a carefree life.
In the evening, Lin Lichen came over for dinner. He came with a purpose. Before dinner started, he called Lin Rou and Lu Xiaoman aside to talk.
Lu Xiaoman asked: "Grandpa, what's the matter?"
Lin Lichen said a little embarrassedly: "Don't call me grandpa yet. Maybe you should change your name after you hear me say it."
Lu Xiaoman and Lin Rou were both confused. Gu Cangnan also sat over with the child in his arms to listen to what they were saying.
Lin Lichen coughed and said, "Xiaoman, I have been eyeing you for a long time..."
Huh? Lu Xiaoman was startled, then thought, is he attracted by my talent?
"No, it's like this..." Seeing everyone's shocked and curious eyes, Lin Lichen got straight to the point: "I want Xiaoman to be my grandson-in-law. I'll arrange for you to be engaged to Lin Wei first, and then get married when you grow up."
"Oh..." Lu Xiaoman was a little nervous. Was he going to abandon his young wife?
"Ahem..." Lin Rou was shocked by her father's move. Just as she was about to speak, the old man interrupted her, "I think it's okay. It's a good idea to keep Xiaoman a relative. Xiaoman is so talented, it's right for him to be her in-law."
Great grandfather!
Lu Xiaoman looked at him and hesitated to speak. Lin Lichen asked again: "Xiaoman, are you willing? I really think highly of you. You are a genius!"
Lu Xiaoman scratched his head, really annoyed: "I don't want to think about this issue yet, let's talk about it when I grow up."
Lin Lichen didn't expect him to refuse: "My Lin Wei is so good, you don't like her?"
"It's not that I can't watch it, it's that I can't watch it now."
"Why can't you watch?"
Lu Xiaoman organized his words again and said, "It's not good for your health."
"How can it affect your health if you get engaged first?" Lin Lichen really wanted this grandson-in-law. It was what the old man said, that good things should be kept in the family.
"Dad, let's forget it. Xiaoman has his own concerns, I know, but we can't say it. He is not an ordinary child." Lin Rou spoke.
Lin Lichen wanted to take him in because he knew he was unusual! The more he couldn't do it, the more he wanted to do it: "When Weiwei comes the day after tomorrow, take a good look at her. She's beautiful and has good grades. You two are a perfect match!"
Lin Wei: Grandpa, I’m still in the fourth grade. Aren’t you a little too anxious?
Lu Xiaoman was a little nervous. It was okay to change his wife, but who would she marry in the future?
So he had to wait and see and couldn't agree to it. Although the Lin family was very tempting, he couldn't do that.
"Let's wait until we grow up."
Lu Xiaoman said this again, and Lin Lichen felt embarrassed to say anything more.
But Jiang Mingxue said, "Xiao Man, I think this marriage is a good one. It's okay to get engaged first."
"I think so too," Yang Shuqin agreed.
"I have my reasons. It's really not convenient for me to get engaged right now."
Lu Xiaoman said with a bitter face, and no one said anything else. Everyone knew that he was unusual, but they didn't know what was unusual about him. Apart from his business, they couldn't say anything else.
Lin Lichen is an ambitious man. He has built up a huge business on his own over the years. He has bought all the land by the sea in the neighboring Xilou Town. He has built a resort, expanded his shipping company, opened a seafood processing factory, and developed many seafood products, including dried fish oil, fish maw, etc.
Lin Rou would not compete with him for these businesses. She planned to open a milk tea shop and turn it into a national chain, and let Xu Yang and Xu Zhen invest in it.
Since she is leading them in business, she also needs to develop some promising careers, otherwise the children will have no inheritance when they grow up.
If necessary, she will still lead this era and develop some cutting-edge industries.
She used to love drinking milk tea and had learned how to make it herself, so she had the skills. She started developing it in Donglai Town after the Chinese New Year and even had a name for it: A Little Sweet Milk Tea.
Then we produced bagged milk tea and promoted it nationwide.
She has already told Xu Yang and Xu Zhen that she will take them to do business this time, but it will only be limited to the milk tea shop, and she will still run the factory alone.
In order to prepare for future development, Lin Rou has already bought all the land in the Fifth Brigade. She thought of building a welfare home and later reached an agreement on the matter. In addition, the Donglai Garden, in which she invested, is building the second phase, as the houses in the first phase had been sold out long ago.
The milk tea factory is planned to be built in the Fifth Brigade. In addition to the welfare home, a brewery will also be built to produce a type of beer.
We need to develop an industry that is sustainable.
This was also the goal heading into the 1990s.
Getting back to the topic, after finishing his meal, Lin Lichen went back to call his son and granddaughter and told them that Lu Xiaoman would be his granddaughter's son-in-law.
Well, two days later, Lin Yehua and his family came to celebrate the New Year, and they stared at Lu Xiaoman. The couple were both satisfied, and the father-in-law would never make a mistake in judging people.
Lin Wei also stared at Lu Xiaoman. She knew Brother Xiaoman very well. Her deepest impression of him was that he loved playing mahjong. Look, he was playing mahjong again now, and his grandfather was playing with him.
Lu Xiaoman turned his head and saw Lin Wei staring at him. He was really scared. Grandpa Lin wanted to play mahjong with him, and then Uncle Lin and Aunt Lin were staring at him, making him so nervous that he couldn't even play the cards. Now he has lost a lot.
He felt like he was being targeted by this family. Yesterday, Grandma Chen brought a big bag of clothes and bedding for him and his sister, and also helped clean the house. He didn't know what to say.
Now that Lin Wei was staring at him, he felt even more uncomfortable. He didn't know what she was thinking, just staring at him.
Lin Wei was thinking about what her grandfather said. Her grandfather told her to play more with Brother Xiaoman, but she didn’t know how to play mahjong. How could she play?
Also, grandpa said that when she grows up, she will marry Brother Xiaoman. She was a little confused. How could she have no such concept in her mind?
Oh, look at her younger brothers and sisters, they don’t understand. Let grandpa do whatever he wants. She doesn’t understand now.
As soon as Lin Wei left, Lu Xiaoman quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead. He was scared to death. He was afraid that Lin Wei would become his wife.
He planned to start dating when he turned 18, but his wife was only 15 and Lin Wei was 16. It seemed that he had to wait until he was 21. It felt like a long time to wait!
As soon as I was distracted, I made a mistake and lost a lot of money. Oh, I was so depressed.
