Beijing.
A courtyard house that looked very ordinary was located on the east street of the capital, less than a kilometer north of the Forbidden City.
Although it looked very ordinary on the outside, it was blocked by a row of high walls and could not see the situation inside.
However,
When they entered the courtyard house, they found that it was suddenly bright.
The huge courtyard was filled with flowers, plants, vegetables, and fruits. In the ancient courtyard, there was a small bridge and flowing water. Flowers bloomed in abundance, giving off a leisurely charm.
In the courtyard, there was a white-haired old man with a ruddy complexion and a strong body. He was wearing simple clothes and holding a hoe in his hand as he tidied up his beloved flowers and plants.
"Dad! Time to eat."
A middle-aged man walked out of the living room. It was Ye Nantian, the minister of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.
"I know…"
The old man stopped what he was doing and wiped his hands. Ye Nantian wanted to help him, but the old man refused with a smile.
"I'm not old enough to need someone to help me!”
"That's right. Our dad's body is very healthy.”
Ye Nantian smiled and flattered the old man, which made him very happy.
At this moment, a gentle middle-aged woman walked out of the room. She was Ye Nantian's wife, Fang Peihua. She was gentle and pretty. Although she had wrinkles around her eyes, it didn't affect her beauty. Instead, it made her look more mature.
"Dad, Mom made your favorite dish today. Wash your hands and prepare to eat!”
"What a rare occasion. I thought this old woman was going to ignore me, hehe…!”
Hearing his daughter-in-law's words, the old man was very happy.
In his impression,
Ever since her younger daughter passed away, this old woman seemed to be too lazy to talk to him. This made the old man anxious, but there was nothing he could do.
Because…
Everything was his own doing.
At the dining table,
The old man praised her cooking while eating. Ye Nantian and Fang Peihua also flattered her.
She said that her mother's dishes were so delicious that even the top chefs in the capital could not compare to them.
Especially Ye Nantian. He was already in his fifties, but he acted like a kid. He said that he hadn't eaten his mom's cooking for a long time.
This made the old lady very happy.
No matter when, it was a mother's pride to be able to make her children feel good about her cooking.
However,
The old lady was very gentle and doting on her son and daughter-in-law.
However, the old lady ignored the old man sitting opposite her. She didn't even bother to look at him.
This made the old man rather helpless.
"Cough…Dad, Mom, let me tell you something. It's about Lil Feng.”
Hearing the name Lil Feng, the old lady Zheng Yunxi immediately asked her son anxiously.
"What's wrong, Lil Feng? Did something happen? How's Little Yiran and Little Sunflower?”
Even the old man, Ye Shengting, waited nervously for his son's answer.
"Ahem, Dad, Mom, don't be anxious. It's not what you think. Lil Feng, Yiran, and Little Sunflower are fine.”
Ye Nantian quickly explained," I wanted to tell you a long time ago, but I was too busy these days. I forgot about it. Xiao Feng is so powerful now. His company has developed the first car engine with our own intellectual property rights. His company is doing well. Last month, he made 1.1 billion!”
"Moreover, in two days, he will bring the latest engine and new car developed by his company to the M Nation to participate in a world-renowned car engine selection competition. If he wins, it will be a glory for the country!”
As soon as Ye Nantian finished, his mother slammed the bowl and chopsticks on the table.
This reaction shocked the few of them.
Then, he heard the old lady say proudly,"Well done. Lil Feng has been smart since he was young. I knew he would be successful when he grows up. As expected of my grandson. He didn't embarrass my Zheng family!”
Although she was old, the old lady seemed to have a high status when she was young. She revealed a heroic spirit in her bones.
His words were filled with dominance.
Ye Shengting couldn't help but interject.
"Cough cough…Honey, can you stop? No matter what, it can't be related to your Zheng family. He's the son of my Ye family! In my opinion, my Ye family's genes are still better!”
However, just as he finished speaking, the old lady glared at him and said disdainfully,
"Get lost and don't talk to me. Why don't you take a piss and look in the mirror? You, Ye Shengting, only know how to fight and kill all your life. How can an uncultured person talk to me about your Ye family's genes?”
"Fortunately, the children at home are all like me. Otherwise, wouldn't people laugh at me?”
The old lady's domineering words made the old man tremble and point at her, but he couldn't hold it in and fart.
Because…
The old lady was telling the truth. Although the old man was not ugly, he was definitely not good-looking.
Although the old lady was old, she could tell that she was definitely a beauty when she was young.
"Puff!"
"Ahem…"
Ye Nantian and Zheng Peiyun immediately lowered their heads to eat. They didn't dare to speak up for their dad. They knew how tough their mom was.
" Sigh…I pity the three children and my daughter. It's all your fault for being so stubborn. You forced my daughter to live in Zhongyun to avoid you. In the end, she's so young…"
The more the old lady spoke, the more agitated she became. Then, she pointed at the old man and started scolding him.
The old man sighed at the thought of his daughter, and he was filled with regret.
"Aiya, Mom, it's been so many years. Besides, Dad has long regretted it. Don't blame him.”
Zheng Peiyun quickly got up to comfort her mother-in-law. Ye Nantian also told his mother not to be angry and to take care of herself.
Ye Shengting finally calmed the old lady down and sighed.
"Although I don't know much about technology, I also know how difficult it is to break through the patent barriers of foreign car companies and develop an engine with our own property rights. This is a very significant thing for the country and an honor. We should let the people know that we have the first car engine with our own property rights.”
"Go and arrange for a promotion on the news broadcast.”
Boom!
After the old man finished his words, even Ye Nantian was stunned.
He knew his father's temper all too well. As the founding father of the country, the old man hated his family members who used their power to seek personal gain. Therefore, no matter how high the position of the children of the Ye family was, they would follow the old man's orders and never do anything to let the country down.
Ye Nantian had wanted to help Lin Feng a long time ago, but he didn't want to make the old man unhappy.
He didn't expect that for Lin Feng's sake, the old man would actually take the initiative to bring it up.
"Alright!"
"At least you still have some conscience. No, I have to call my grandson. I haven't seen my babies in a long time! Little Sunflower should be able to speak now!”
The old lady was very satisfied and personally poured a cup of Maotai for the old man.
This made the old man extremely happy. He drank the wine and ate the dishes happily. There was no need to mention how satisfied he was!
