Quick Wear: Reversing Life

Chapter 116: A Single Mother Who Saved Her Autistic Son (35)

After spending these few days together, Wen Jin and Wei Zongquan have obviously become much closer.

Compared to Wei Zongquan's relaxed work schedule, Chen Lang's workload had clearly increased significantly as a special assistant. Wenxiu often saw Wei Zongquan making and receiving phone calls on the balcony.

Wei Zongquan probably took some time off from his busy schedule, but he stayed here to accompany the two of them on vacation and didn't mention leaving at all.

It was not until we had been playing here for nearly a week that we packed up and returned home.

Wei Zongquan returned to China on his private plane. Since he often traveled around the world on business, it was faster for him to apply for flight routes.

However, the destination was not to go home, but to go to S City to meet the Wei family.

Although Wenxiu didn't want to engage in unnecessary social activities, she couldn't avoid meeting Wen Jin.

Wei Zongquan probably noticed that Wenxiu was in a bad mood and thought she was scared, so he comforted her: "Don't worry, I'm here."

Just from this sentence, Wenxiu understood the hidden meaning. Perhaps someone in the Wei family did not welcome them.

She began to think about the pros and cons, but she would have to wait until she met the Wei family to know the outcome.

-

The Wei family's manor was built 40 minutes' drive from the city center. It was far away from the hustle and bustle of the city. There was a natural reservoir not far away. Mr. Wei often went to the reservoir to fish.

The manor is built on a low hillside and should have some history. The outer walls are made of wood and stones, which looks simple and natural.

The stones are basically natural granite without any cutting marks, but the fit between the stones is very high, and it must have taken a lot of effort from skilled craftsmen to build them.

The design of the front yard is quite grand, with a bit of neo-Chinese Zen flavor. The lines are basically curved, and the strange rocks and pine and cypress are planted and placed in fixed places. Fresh water is introduced around them, and active koi swim underneath.

"The original house was too old and had been severely weathered. Considering the safety of the residents, we renovated it again."

Wenxiu asked, "Did you design this? It's a bit similar to the style of the villa in Crescent Bay."

Wei Zongquan nodded.

The main architectural shape of the entire villa is still based on the main architectural style of the Huizhou school, with white walls and black tiles, but it is inlaid with many floor-to-ceiling glass windows to dilute the flavor of the ancient building.

There was already a servant in work clothes waiting at the entrance. When he saw Wei Zongquan, he walked over and took the luggage carried by the bodyguards behind him.

It was obvious that the Wei family's servants were very well-trained. When they saw Wenxiu and Wenjin, they did not show any abnormality and did not even glance at them. They just took the things and left.

The interior design of the Wei family building is quite modern. The first floor is basically a large flat with a large living room. The third floor is hollowed out with a whole wall of glass, and outside the glass is the interior of the manor.

Compared with the spacious and grand artificial front yard, the backyard is a natural ecological winding stream.

The selection and placement of flowers and trees are quite reminiscent of the Jiangnan garden style, and the entire glass wall acts as a frame, locking the greenery of the garden into view.

At this moment, there was a noise coming from the stairs next to the living room.

"came back?"

The woman was tall, with fair skin and striking features. She wore a long silk dress and a light woolen shawl. She wore no jewelry, save for a golden boutonniere pinned to her shawl, yet she looked regal and elegant.

This is probably Wei Zongquan's mother.

"Mom, this is Wenxiu and Wenjin."

Mrs. Wei obviously disliked Wenxiu, but Wenxiu was surprised to see that she was neither humble nor arrogant, calm and composed, and even looked somewhat decent.

As for the little one.

Wenxiu had said on the way here that one should greet elders politely, so Wenjin said to Madam Wei, "Hello, Grandma."

He really looks like Wei Zongquan when he was a child, but he is more delicate than Wei Zongquan, with a fair and tender face.

Madam Wei couldn't help but glance at him a few more times, but her face remained expressionless. She said calmly to the servant beside her, "Since you're back, go call him back. You're not tired after fishing all morning."

I'm talking about Mr. Wei.

But she didn't need to say anything, the servants had already gone to inform them.

After sitting on the plane for a long time, Wenxiu felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach, so the servant took her to the guest room to rest.

In front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room, Mrs. Wei was feeding the hyacinth macaw in the cage, while Wei Zongquan was replying to emails on the sofa next to her.

"You've made up your mind already? Why don't you just ask for my opinion?"

Wei Zongquan said without even looking up: "Haven't you always been looking forward to holding your grandson?"

Mrs. Wei was so angry that she almost laughed. Who could accept that the first grandson who showed up was a six or seven-year-old?

"Don't be as talkative as your father." Mrs. Wei put down the things in her hand and said in a serious tone: "You can accept a woman from the slums, but I can't, and the child she gave birth to -"

Before he could finish his words, he saw Wen Jin coming over from the bathroom after washing his hands.

He has never had a strong social perception and was not afraid of strangers. He was just attracted by the beautiful blue and purple feathers of the parrot in the cage and walked over.

No matter how mean Mrs. Wei was, she was too embarrassed to say it in front of the child.

Wen Jin tilted his head and looked at the parrot in the cage, his eyes wide open like two shiny black grapes.

"......Do you like it?" asked Mrs. Wei.

Mrs. Wei likes to raise birds, and there are bird cages of all sizes everywhere in the house. But Old Man Wei has always disliked the birds' chirping noise. Wei Zongquan doesn't like it but doesn't interfere. Mrs. Wei is probably the only one in the Wei family who likes birds.

Wen Jin nodded and stared at the parrot obediently, not reaching out to touch it impolitely.

A perceptive servant came over, took down the birdcage and put it on the ground. Wen Jin immediately squatted down to observe.

The Hyacinth Macaw is much larger than the cockatiel we keep at home, and the cage that holds it is also larger.

There is a rest area specially built for it next to it, but it is put in a cage only because there are outsiders coming.

In addition to this, there are two blue-eyed crested gulls and one Michelangelo crested gulls in the backyard. They are basically relatively rare breeds, so the family specially hired a breeder to take care of them.

"Its name is Adam." Seeing that Wen Jin liked it, Wei Zongquan said.

Mrs. Wei was of mixed race, her grandmother a princess of the Portuguese royal family. She named all the pets at home with foreign names, which Old Man Wei disliked the most.

Adam was a very clever parrot, recognizing family members, but he had a somewhat short temper. Normally, only the servants who regularly cleaned the birdcage were allowed to approach him. Surprisingly, when Wen Jin approached, Adam showed no impatience or anxiety, but simply shook his head quietly.

"Xiao Jin!"

She heard the voice before she saw the person, and when she heard this rather heroic laughter, Mrs. Wei wanted to roll her eyes in an indecent manner.

Old man Wei walked in carrying a fishing rod and a fish bucket. When he saw Wen Jin, he put down what he was holding, took a few steps over, and lifted Wen Jin up by the armpits.

"Wow, it's gotten a little heavier again."

Wen Jin obediently called out "Hello, Grandpa".

"Do you like fish? Grandpa caught a big one today and asked someone to make fish soup for lunch."

Old man Wei patted Wen Jin's head with a smile.

Mrs. Wei snorted coldly when she saw this: "You fish for your lousy fish all day long, and you don't get tired of eating fish every day."

"Are you born in the Year of the Pig? You just like to hum every day."

Old Man Wei glanced at Mrs. Wei, then smiled at Wen Jin and said, "Do you like parrots? Grandpa will give you one?"

Mrs. Wei didn't bother to argue with her husband. She took a wet towel from the table next to her and wiped her hands. Then she looked at Wei Zongquan: "Where is she? Dinner is almost ready, why isn't she coming down?"
