Chapter 336: Gaining Knowledge with Brother Nan
February 2nd, the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.
According to the customs of the Dragon Kingdom, this day is the day to welcome the God of Wealth.
On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year every year, the Moments and QQ Space will be filled with various photos of the God of Wealth and texts about inviting the God of Wealth.
Brother Nan would naturally not send these things. As a child of luck, it is more reliable for her to trust herself than to believe in the God of Wealth.
Fang Shulin, a boss of a foreign company who started his career abroad, doesn't have so many requirements.
Li Mu doesn't do business and has enough money to spend, so he doesn't post various photos of the God of Wealth to pray for blessings for wealth like his friends do.
However, he still received the God of Wealth.
After getting up, washing and having breakfast, Fang Shulin took out a bank card and handed it to him.
"Xiao Mu, this card is for you."
"No, I don't need money now." Li Mu shook his head and didn't answer.
"Don't reject mom, okay?"
Fang Shulin stuffed the card into Li Mu's hand and said, "I opened this card on the day your father and I separated. We agreed to deposit a sum of money into it every year until you grow up and it's time for you to start a family and career."
"."
Li Mu pursed his lips and said nothing.
The cat eating nearby seemed to sense his mood and stretched out a small paw and gently pressed it on his hand, just like Li Mu usually stroked her, gently stroking the back of his hand with its paw pad.
Fang Shulin looked a little lonely and continued, "We have been absent a lot during your growth over the years, but you have to believe us. Even though your father and I have separated, we have never forgotten you."
"I know. My aunt told me."
Li Mu looked at her mother calmly. "I did blame you when we were little, but now I understand you. It's not easy for you to be abroad. I heard from my aunt that your company was once on the verge of bankruptcy, but now it has become a large enterprise. You must have suffered a lot in the process."
"It's okay, all the bad things are in the past."
Fang Shulin's eyes instantly turned red when she heard this, and she quickly took out a tissue to wipe them. Then she smiled happily, "Your aunt said that you have grown up, and my little Mu has indeed grown up."
After sniffing a few times, Fang Shulin continued, "This card was originally prepared by your father and I for your future family. Although the money is not particularly much, it is enough for my grandchildren to live a carefree life, so you must accept it and don't refuse it, okay?"
"it is good."
Li Mu hesitated for a moment and agreed.
If this would make her feel better.
"The password is your birthday." Fang Shulin smiled happily and wiped it with two more pieces of paper. "Stop talking. Let's eat. It's getting cold."
After breakfast, the mother and son sat on the sofa in the living room and chatted all the time. Fang Shulin seemed to have endless things to say.
At 11 o'clock in the morning, Brother Nan sent me a WeChat message.
Jiang Daimao: What are you doing? Are you up?
Li Mu: I got up early and was talking to my mother.
Jiang Daimao: Oh, I'll be there right away.
Jiang Daimao: Don’t drive, I drove here.
Li Mu: Okay, let’s go downstairs now, where should we eat?
Jiang Daimao: You’ll know when you get there.
"What's wrong?" Fang Shulin asked.
"Brother Nan will be at the gate of the community soon."
"Brother Nan?"
".I'm used to it."
"Quite unique." Fang Shulin smiled and picked up the yogurt on the sofa. "Let's go downstairs. Don't let Xiaonan wait too long."
"it is good."
The two of them and the cat walked out of the community. A red flag car that looked both solemn and majestic slowly stopped in front of them. The window rolled down, revealing Nan Ge's delicate face: "Good morning, Auntie."
"Hey, good morning."
"Your car"
Li Mu looked at the nearly 6-meter-long, noble-looking black Red Flag sedan in front of him. It was the same car as the one he saw on TV, except that there was no national flag hanging on the front of the car.
"It's my grandfather's car." Brother Nan unlocked the door. "Hurry up, get in the car first. It's not good to leave it outside for too long."
ten minutes later.
The car drove onto the expressway to the western suburbs.
Li Mu sat in the passenger seat, touching here and looking there.
"How about it, domineering?" Brother Nan held the steering wheel with one hand and looked at Li Mu proudly.
"Domineering." Li Mu nodded honestly, "The door of this car is so thick."
"There are bulletproof steel plates." Brother Nan said, pointing at the ground below. "Not only the doors, but also the glass and chassis. The whole car is bulletproof and can also protect against grenades, so it looks very heavy."
"sharp."
"Of course not. I begged Grandpa for a long time last night before he agreed to let me drive out. This is already a violation of the rules."
“Can’t you just open it?”
"Of course, although grandpa has retired, according to regulations, this car must be registered with the General Office of the Central Committee whenever it leaves the house."
"Then you're still coming out?"
"The place we're going to eat is not open to the public, and it would take too much time to go through the paperwork, so we might as well drive my grandfather's car and go straight in."
"Where to?"
"You'll know soon."
"Oh."
Half an hour later.
The car arrived near Yuyuantan in HD District.
Brother Nan drove into a garden that combined ancient and modern buildings.
The tall archway has the characters "Diaoyutai State Guesthouse" written on it in large letters.
"Diaoyutai?"
"Yes." Brother Nan nodded, "Let's eat here today."
Diaoyutai State Guesthouse is a subordinate institution of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Although it is called a hotel, it is actually an ancient royal garden complex, which has been expanded and renovated in modern times.
After the reform and opening up, part of the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse was opened to the public. As long as you can afford it, have no criminal record, and have not done anything improper or indecent, you can rent part of the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse for accommodation, meetings, and meals.
It is said that a lot of money was earned from this, which also reduced the financial pressure on the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and even the country.
But its headquarters still maintains enough dignity and is a special place for the country to receive heads of state and important guests. Places such as Yangyuanzhai Chinese Restaurant and Building No. 18 are not open to the public.
The part that Brother Nan took them to was not open to the public.
There are armed police on duty at the gate, strictly checking vehicles entering and leaving.
However, after seeing the car driven by Brother Nan, the armed police immediately stood at attention and saluted, and the rest of the cars also stopped on the side of the road to make way.
They drove into the garden unimpeded.
"See, it saves a lot of trouble." Brother Nan raised his eyebrows at Li Mu.
"Yeah." Li Mu nodded and continued to appreciate the scenery outside the window.
Diaoyutai was named because the ancient Jin Zhangzong Emperor built a platform here for fishing. Later, a royal garden was built in the Qing Dynasty. Ten years after the founding of the People's Republic of China, it began to be used as a place for visiting state guests to stay and for meetings and conferences.
If Li Mu hadn't benefited from Brother Nan, he would probably never have had the chance to come here in his life.
