Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 947

Chapter 947: Chapter 820: What’s the Use of Going to Xiao Wu?

"Then why are we looking for Big Sis? That’s not right!" Lin Liyin looked at Mr. Lin, "Dad, you’re actually trying to find my brother-in-law, aren’t you?" As she spoke, she immediately drooped and shook her head dejectedly.

After a pause, she continued, "It’s useless. My brother-in-law is notoriously indifferent to anything outside his duties. You know he never gets involved in anything beyond his responsibilities."

"Besides, he doesn’t have any affection for our family. My sister might have the will but not the power, and she wouldn’t even dare to mention a word in front of him."

Mr. Lin watched her with a stern face, waiting for her to finish her complaints, and then asked, "Are you done? Since you thought of it, do you think your father is so brainless?"

"Alright, alright, I’ll keep quiet, I’ll listen, okay?"

Lin Aidang saw his sister at odds with Mr. Lin and shook his head with a chuckle. He poured her a glass of water and explained, "Dad wants to find Zhang Guoqing."

Lin Liyin looked at him in surprise.

Lin Aidang nodded in confirmation. She wasn’t the only one who found it incredible; even when Mr. Lin told him, he thought it was absurd. That so-called "country bumpkin" has really come a long way.

"Dad, what are you thinking? What’s the use of finding Xiao Wu? There’s no way he would risk his brother-in-law’s name to do something for our second brother, and without the shine from the brother-in-law, he’s not even on par with Li Jianjun from our family."

She didn’t say it, but Li Jianjun’s position is higher than Zhang Guoqing’s. Even if they meet in the future, Zhang Guoqing would have to salute Li Jianjun first!

And no matter how retired Mr. Lin is, he still has his reputation. Why bother looking for Zhang Guoqing? After all, that kid’s success is thanks to his father-in-law; otherwise, who would care about him?

Mr. Lin looked at her indifferent expression and smiled bitterly at his in-laws. It’s all his fault for not raising his children well. Sometimes, even current officials are worth less than current managers, let alone how many people are eyeing job allocations from all over.

How should he step in? Oh, go to Wu and subtly suggest arranging a good unit for his son? At best, Wu might ignore him, and in the worst case, report him?

He had explained this to his son once, so he was too lazy to repeat it now and signaled Lin Aidang to explain it to his sister.

"Sis, we really need to find Zhang Guoqing. Didn’t you forget that Zhang Guoqing used to be part of their system? It’s said that Minister Wu holds him in high regard; apparently, they’re friends despite the age gap."

Lin Aidang said, with a somewhat disappointed sigh, "Five years is enough for someone to build his own network. He’s no longer that penniless kid without anything."

Their family’s eldest made the wrong move. If only he had entered the military academy earlier, been transferred back to Beijing earlier, instead of listening to the old lady about getting promoted from the grassroots level, he wouldn’t lag behind anyone now.

Life is unpredictable, one wrong step and every step thereafter is wrong...

Listening to this, Lin Liyin felt it was even more useless. Asking Zhang Guoqing was worse than asking Zhou Jiao. If anyone knew a bit about the couple, they’d know he’s a henpecked husband.

But would Zhou Jiao help? Even if she smiled at you, her eyes wouldn’t show a hint of affection, colder than her father.

But she wouldn’t say this to offend anyone. She didn’t believe Mr. Lin couldn’t see who was in charge in the Zhou family now; it was just a matter of wishful thinking.

Mr. Lin certainly understood this reasoning. He patiently said, "Help Dad find your big sister. Once she agrees, Xiao Wu will speak on our behalf to Wu. Your big sister said Xiao Wu is very filial; he handles all her affairs."
