Chapter 1062: Explanation
But even so, Song Chaoyuan couldn't appreciate the girl's dress. If Song Zijun told him the reason, Song Chaoyuan would only believe it halfway at most. But it was different for Qin Wenchang. Song Chaoyuan still believed his words and even took out his equipment. Thinking about Qin Wenchang's explanation, Song Chaoyuan felt relieved.
"Okay, go early and come back early! By the way, your brother and sister-in-law are coming back for dinner today, remember to come back early. Wenchang, help me keep an eye on Zijun, this girl is too crazy, come back as soon as you are done."
"Don't worry, Uncle Song." Qin Wenchang responded quickly. Song Zijun laughed and agreed immediately. He said to his father, "I know," and ran away in the blink of an eye.
After returning home, Song Yuanchao took a shower, changed into comfortable home clothes, and then went downstairs.
When he got downstairs, the servant had already made tea. Song Chaoyuan drank tea and read the newspaper for a while, then answered a few phone calls. About an hour later, Lin Yan came back. Hearing the voice, Song Chaoyuan stood up to greet her and took the small bag from her.
The couple hadn't seen each other for a while. Lin Yan sat down and asked about the health of Yan Jing's parents. Song Chaoyuan told Lin Yan that the two elders were in good health, and there were people taking care of them in Yan Jing, so there was no need to worry on weekdays. However, the climate in Yan Jing was a big problem. In another month, the wind would blow in Yan Jing, and when the wind blew, the yellow sand would roll in all over the sky, and it would be difficult to go out.
However, Song Chaoyuan and the two elders had agreed that they would let the second son come to Shanghai to live for a while next month, and then let Lin Yan go there in advance to borrow the two elders' room.
"Thank goodness you are so filial. I thought you would forget it."
"I swear to God, I can forget other things, but how could I forget this?" Song Chaoyuan said aggrievedly, pretending to be a little punched bag, which made Lin Yan burst out laughing.
"By the way, I won't have much time next month. You must remember about the old man and the old Buddha. If possible, bring them here in advance." Song Chaoyuan reminded.
"I know about this. My second sister-in-law and I will go to pick them up. What's the matter? Haven't you finished with Si Te? Do you still have to go to Jinling?"
Song Chaoyuan nodded: "The major issues have been resolved, but after something like this happened, there will be many internal adjustments to make. Also, I told you about Yangming's arrangements on the phone. I will have to take Yangming there in a few days. He, the assistant to the general manager, must take up his post earlier to help Yaoliang share some of the responsibilities."
"Have you considered Wenhui's side? I'm not saying it's not okay to let Yangming go, but they've just been married for a short time. If you make such an arrangement for them to live apart, aren't you afraid that there will be family discord between your son and daughter-in-law?" Lin Yan asked with a little concern.
"I will talk to Yangming about this when he and his friends come today. But you know my son's temper. Since he has already agreed to this, he should have discussed it with Wenhui in advance, otherwise he would not have agreed. Besides, we have watched Wenhui grow up since she was a child. She is a sensible and generous child. Yangming will take over my family business in the future anyway. The current arrangement is to pave the way for him and to allow him to further train himself. Wenhui will understand these principles."
Lin Yan listened and nodded slightly. In fact, she also knew this truth, but women and men think differently. Women consider things more delicately. Moreover, Song Yangming and Qin Wenhui had just got married, and she, as a mother-in-law, was looking forward to having a grandson soon.
"Yuan Chao, you have to take good care of this girl Zijun. I don't know what she learned abroad. She is already 20 years old but still acts like a child. Do you know what kind of music she listens to in the house every day?" Just after finishing talking about Song Yangming, Lin Yan couldn't help but talk about Song Zijun .
"What music?"
“Do you know Napalm Death?”
"Napalm Death? It sounds familiar. Let me think..." Song Yuanchao tilted his head and thought for a while before asking Lin Yan, "Is it a rock band from the UK?"
"It's more than just rock. I didn't know at first, but I found out after asking Linzi. Napalm Death is a rock band, yes, but this rock band is about death rock. How could a girl like Zijun like this? It's not rock, but death rock? Is this something a decent girl likes? Besides, she studied in the United States instead of the UK. Yangming and the others didn't do this when they studied in the UK. This girl, at such a young age, likes something simply..."
At this point, Lin Yan couldn't continue and kept shaking her head.
Song Chaoyuan was also speechless and couldn't help but tell Lin Yan about the incident when he ran into Song Zijun on his way back. Lin Yan was completely speechless when she heard this. She didn't know about this yet. She felt dizzy when she thought about her daughter also having a Shamatte hairstyle on her head.
Seeing that Lin Yan looked unhappy, Song Chaoyuan hurriedly comforted her and even used Qin Wenchang's explanation to explain a few things to the girl, which made Lin Yan feel relieved.
However, Song Chaoyuan was a little angry with his girl. Although it was normal for children to have their own hobbies when they grew up, Song Zijun's hobbies were different from those of ordinary people. Let's not talk about "Shamatte". Although he explained it to Song Chaoyuan, he was not stupid. If Song Zijun had no interest in this culture, how could she be so enthusiastic about it?
Don't use social investigation and thesis as excuses. There are so many things to write a thesis about, why use these? This also shows that Song Zijun agrees with this strange culture from the bottom of her heart. In addition, he was even more speechless when he learned for the first time today that Song Zijun actually likes the Napalm Death band. A little girl likes this kind of music? I don't know what she thinks.
"No, we can't let Zijun stay abroad any longer. Look, this is all the result of your laissez-faire attitude. You sent her abroad to study since high school, and what has she learned? If she continues to stay abroad, who knows what she will become."
Song Chaoyuan agreed with Lin Yan's suggestion, but he disagreed with Lin Yan's accusation that he was "free-range". Wasn't that how Song Yangming arranged it? How come the brother was fine, but the sister was like this? This was entirely due to personal reasons.
But Song Chaoyuan felt that it would be a good thing to bring Song Zijun back as soon as possible. This girl has always been a worry to him since she was a child. Although she looks well-behaved, she is actually very wild and has big ideas. If she continues to stay abroad, she might make her parents worry one day.
However, Song Zijun still has more than half a year to go before she graduates from university, and she will graduate next year. This time she came back for vacation, and she will have to go back soon in Shanghai. Song Chaoyuan was thinking about whether to assign a few more people to keep an eye on the girl, and then bring her back after she graduates.
"By the way, I see Wenchang has been following Yatou all the time. Thanks to him, Yatou didn't get into trouble outside. You say, if Yatou and Wenchang can be together, wouldn't our family and Zhengguo, Caixia and the others be...?"
Before Song Chaoyuan could finish, Lin Yan shook her head and said, "Don't think about it. Do you think I don't want to? I've already asked privately. Zijun told me that she doesn't have any feelings for Wenchang. She just sees him as a good buddy. Even Wenchang treats Zijun as a good friend. This thing won't work."
"Let's give it a try, what if it works?" Song Chaoyuan said with a smile. To be honest, he liked Qin Wenchang very much. Not only did he grow up in front of him, but he was also a very good kid. The most important thing is that he has a good character. His personality is nothing like his father Qin Zhengguo.
Qin Zhengguo is a carefree guy who loves to joke around. His work style is rough but meticulous. But Qin Wenchang is different. He is a typical good kid in the eyes of his parents. He is shy and gentle, kind, and more like Ying Caixia. Compared with the more outgoing Song Zijun, Song Chaoyuan sometimes even wishes that Qin Wenchang is his own son.
"It won't work." Lin Yan shook her head and pointed at her eyes. "I've been through this before. If I can't see this, I've been eating rice for decades in vain. Whether it's Zijun or Wenchang, there's nothing wrong with them. If there was even a little bit of that, I wouldn't say this."
"Oh..." Song Chaoyuan sighed and shook his head with regret.
The couple chatted and time passed quickly. At around 4:30 in the afternoon, Song Yangming and Qin Wenhui arrived. When they saw Song Chaoyuan and his wife, they bowed respectfully and called them "Mom and Dad".
Mother-in-law Lin Yan likes Qin Wenhui very much. Besides, they all watched Qin Wenhui grow up, and they treat her no differently than their own daughter. She even likes her a little more than the troublesome Song Zijun.
Seeing them coming, Lin Yan held Qin Wenhui's hand and kept asking about her well-being. Qin Wenhui talked to her mother-in-law with a smile on her face, and the two of them started chatting enthusiastically.
Looking at this kind appearance, Song Chaoyuan smiled and shook his head, looking towards Song Yangming.
"Come with me!" Song Chaoyuan said to his son, turned and walked towards the study. Song Yangming looked at his wife, and Qin Wenhui looked back at the same time. They exchanged glances tacitly, and then followed Song Chaoyuan into the study.
When he arrived at the study, Song Yangming closed the door casually and sat on the sofa opposite him at Song Chaoyuan's gesture.
"I'm in a tight schedule this time as I return to Shanghai. You know about Si Te's incident. Your Uncle Sun is under a lot of pressure, so I have to go back as soon as possible to help him share the burden. How's your side?" When talking to his son, Song Chaoyuan didn't beat around the bush and spoke directly.
Before Song Yangming came, he understood why his father wanted to see him, not to mention that they had already communicated over the phone before.
"I have already made arrangements here. Wenhui is very supportive of my going there. Don't worry, I can leave at any time."
Song Chaoyuan was very pleased with Song Yangming's answer. He nodded and said, "Taking over Si Te is a very important part of your taking over Sheng Hua in the future. In fact, compared with Sheng Hua, Si Te is the company I put the most effort into. On the contrary, for many businesses of Sheng Hua, I only control the general direction, and the specific work is done by Lao Qin and Lao Li."
"In the past few years, I have rarely been to Jinling, and Shenghua has been busy with more and more things. I have neglected the management of Si Te. After you, Lord Zheng, retired, I didn't pay much attention to Si Te. This is why someone took advantage of the opportunity to do something like this."
"Yangming, running a business is not that easy, and managing a large company is different from your previous work. Most of the work you did before was to analyze and judge from a high level, and the rest was just some auxiliary work."
"Although you are only the assistant to the general manager this time, you are actually asked to gradually take control of the company. Your uncle Sun is the general manager of Si Te this time because of my face. To tell you the truth, he will only work in Si Te for about a year at most. He will resign as the general manager by this time next year. So you don't have much time and the task is very heavy. Do you understand what I said?"
