"Then do I need to prepare anything else? I don't know your family's traditions. Don't lose etiquette. That would be bad!"
Li Muhan asked after he was sure that he had to go.
"No, just be ready to receive the red envelope when the time comes!"
"And there are red envelopes?"
This is such a thoughtful etiquette!
But since she came here, she hasn't really gotten to know Gu Chengyan or the Gu family in detail.
All I know is that the Gu family has a wide range of business and a large company. It has a high status in society, especially in Yan City, and is naturally quite wealthy.
However, it seems that only some big families pay special attention to these rules and traditions, and they are still continuing.
It seems that the Gu family may be more powerful than she imagined!
"Since there is a tea ceremony, of course there are red envelopes to get good luck. The older generation pays special attention to these!"
Gu Chengyan saw that Li Muhan was a little nervous after hearing this, so he said again,
"It's very simple, not as complicated as you think, just have a meal together as a family, serve tea afterwards, and go through the process!"
"Then when will we go there tomorrow?"
She wanted to prepare in advance. Although he said it was very simple, she couldn't ignore it!
After all, this is the first time I go there, and I want to meet my parents.
"It's in the afternoon. I'll come back to pick you up then. I need to go to the company in the morning!"
"Oh, okay!"
Seeing that things were almost finished, Li Muhan put down the tea in his hand and said:
"That's okay, I'm going back to rest first!"
At this moment, she had already drank three cups of tea. Although it tasted good, she really couldn't drink it anymore, so she had better withdraw.
"Okay! Mrs. Lin!"
Gu Chengyan shouted in the direction of the kitchen. After Mrs. Lin came out,
"Send the young lady back to her room!"
"No, I can do it myself!"
Li Muhan stood up from the wheelchair. She could walk, but it was just a little slow.
It's not like before, where you have to be supported by someone before you can walk.
Mrs. Lin had already come over and supported her.
"You kid, why are you so polite to me? Let's go!"
"Okay!"
Immediately smiling at Mrs. Lin, Li Muhan said nothing more and instead took Mrs. Lin's arm and walked forward.
Now she can feel much more relaxed with just a little help.
My legs, which were still a little sore before the meal, have eased and I don't feel anything anymore.
"Then I'll go up first!"
He turned back and said something to Gu Chengyan.
Gu Chengyan nodded.
Mrs. Lin helped Li Muhan to the room and helped her prepare the medicinal bath she needed to take every day. Before leaving, she did not forget to say:
"Soak for a while, but don't be too late!"
"I know, you should go to bed early!"
Li Muhan nodded in agreement.
Mrs. Lin closed the door and went downstairs. She found Gu Chengyan still sitting there, so she stepped forward and asked,
"Master, why don't you rest yet? Do you need to make another pot of tea?"
"No, Mrs. Lin, we will go back to the old house tomorrow. You can follow us then and help take care of her."
Gu Chengyan raised his head and said to Mrs. Lin that he stayed here specially to wait for Mrs. Lin to come down.
I thought that if she had a familiar person by her side, she would not be too restrained or nervous!
The main thing is to take care of her legs. According to the conversation between her and Mrs. Lin today, she shouldn't be able to walk for a long time.
Gu Chengyan's mind unconsciously resurfaced, the scene when he saw Li Muhan when he just came back in the afternoon, the feeling of loneliness was really strong!
It's not his imagination.
Could it be that he was alone here and didn't know anyone, and that his grandfather was undergoing surgery and he was injured and couldn't go there to visit, so that's why he was like that?
Maybe, that’s it!
However, as for the fact that he failed to recognize Li Muhan immediately, Gu Chengyan thought about it for a while and concluded that the two of them were not very familiar with each other, so he felt that it was normal for him not to recognize him.
Gu Chengyan didn't dwell too much on this. Seeing that it was getting late, he asked Mrs. Lin to go to rest early so that she didn't have to work too much. Then he got up and went upstairs.
Today is quite tiring after a long day of traveling and traveling, and the jet lag has not reversed yet. I have to get up early to go to the company tomorrow morning, so I really need to take a good rest.
The next day, Li Muhan got up at the same time as usual.
Then when I went downstairs to have breakfast, I found that Gu Chengyan had already left for work.
I looked at the time and saw that it was only a quarter past seven. This was too early!
Mrs. Lin may have understood what she was thinking, so when she brought breakfast over, she explained to her,
"The young master leaves so early every day for work, and usually comes back around seven or eight in the evening.
If there is entertainment, it will be later, but it will not be too late, and it will not be later than twelve o'clock at night! "
Mrs. Lin's tone was filled with distress. After all, she had watched her grow up, so her emotions were naturally different.
“For such a big company, there are naturally many things to worry about!”
Li Muhan replied calmly.
No one has it easy. The higher you stand, the more things you have to endure and face. This is all directly proportional.
When Zhao Junhui was just the general manager, he was very busy. Later, when he was promoted, he became even busier.
Not to mention that Gu Chengyan is the president of such a large company and has to manage so many branches.
As far as she knew, the company was involved in real estate, film and television, and manufacturing.
It seems that there are some other small affiliated companies, so they are naturally more busy.
She checked briefly before going to bed last night.
But these are not what she needs to care about. All she cares about now is going back to her old house in the afternoon.
After breakfast, Li Muhan took Sister Lin and asked some things about the old house, especially who else was there besides Mr. Gu.
Aunt Lin told her that in addition to Gu Chengyan's grandfather, there was also grandma and mother in the old house, but there was no one else after that.
If there are others, they are some relatives from other branches of the Gu family.
However, except for special events, it only happens during the New Year and holidays. You rarely see them in normal times, and you probably won't encounter them today.
Li Muhan nodded and said he understood.
After realizing it, Aunt Lin didn't seem to mention Gu Chengyan's father, so she asked about it.
I never thought that as soon as I finished speaking, I saw Aunt Lin's expression change immediately, and then she said to her in a very urging tone,
"In the future, whether at home or in the old house, it is best not to mention Mr.
Aunt Lin sighed,
"When the young master was ten years old, our husband died in a plane crash while on an errand. From then on, talking about him at home became a taboo."
Li Muhan didn't expect such a thing to happen. After being surprised for a moment, he immediately said that he knew about it and would not mention it again in the future.
In fact, even if she didn't remind her, she wouldn't say it easily.
Because she knows that some things need to be buried deep in her heart and cannot be touched.
Only then will you feel better.
For example, she didn't want to mention the death of her mother at all, let alone the father she hadn't seen since she was a child.
Li Muhan came out of his thoughts and continued to listen to Mrs. Lin talking about things in the old house, and heard her mention his wife, who was Gu Chengyan's mother.
Because of the death of Gu Chengyan's father, he became very taciturn.
She often locks herself in her room, or stays in the flower house that Gu Chengyan's father built for her.
Sometimes I stay for a whole day without saying a word.
It's better now, not as serious as before.
"Mu Han, please remember not to mention your husband in front of your wife, otherwise..."
After Mrs. Lin said this, she stopped talking, but Li Muhan could easily see from her expression that what she said later might mean that the lady might lose control of her emotions.
Those two people must have been very loving before, otherwise how could they still not come out of it after so many years, or even mention it.
But it's a pity...
Seeing Mrs. Lin clearing the dishes on the dining table and heading to the kitchen, Li Muhan drove the wheelchair and followed her.
She didn't know how long it would take to go to the old house in the afternoon. In front of the elders, she thought it would be better not to use a wheelchair, which would look better.
So now, she relies on a wheelchair as much as possible to reduce her mobility and conserve her energy.
When they got to the kitchen, they heard Mrs. Lin continue to say that the old lady had a relatively easy-going personality, but she was getting older and didn't like to move around a bit.
As for the old man, Gu Chengyan's grandfather, he looks very serious, but generally has a good personality.
But after all, he is the head of the family and is in charge of the entire Gu family. The current Gu family was also founded by him.
Therefore, this majesty and temper cannot be underestimated.
But as long as he didn't do anything wrong, the old man was usually very talkative.
Li Muhan nodded to express his understanding, and then recalled the two previous meetings based on the memory in his mind.
Mr. Gu comes across as very amiable and amiable, without being too majestic or intimidating.
At least he had a good impression on the previous 'Li Muhan' and indirectly influenced her.
Mrs. Lin's work didn't stop, and the two of them just chatted.
Afterwards, the evening medicinal bath was advanced to noon.
Li Muhan wanted to keep his legs in the best condition possible.
Just like that, the whole morning passed by.
