Chapter 1729 (2/2)
He said, ”Ji Feng, Shao Lei has already told me the purpose of your visit to the United States. I feel that this matter cannot be rushed …”
Ji Feng's brows twitched as he asked, ”What did second brother tell you?”
Chu w.a.n.g Dong laughed and asked, ”What, do you have other versions of your answers?”
Ji Shalei said from the side, ”San'er, I've already told w.a.n.g Dong everything. I don't think there's a need to hide it from him. w.a.n.g Dong should be able to see the big picture.”
Hearing him say that, Ji Feng understood that his second brother must have told Chu w.a.n.gdong everything, including the news that his aunt was in trouble and that they had come to help her solve it. At the same time, he hoped that his second brother could persuade her to return home.
However, when he said it like that, this matter was not something that could be explained in a single sentence or two.
Therefore, Ji Feng had only planned to tell Chu w.a.n.gdong that they had come to see his aunt. As for everything else, there was no need to say anything else. This would save them a lot of trouble.
After all, it was reasonable for a nephew to visit his sister-in-law. No one could say anything.
But now that he said it, he did.
Ji Feng nodded and said, ”Second brother is right. On one hand, when we came to the United States, we heard that my aunt was in trouble, so we decided to do our best to help her. Of course, other than that, there is also another important reason. I hope to be able to persuade my aunt to return home. ”
Chu Weidong nodded his head. Ji Feng's words were the same as what Ji Shaolei said. He nodded his head and said, ”Ji Feng, for our matter, you all came here specially from Hua Xia. Even if we are all family, I still want to thank you.”
Ji Feng waved his hand and said, ”There's no need to thank me. As you've already said, we are family. There's no point in saying all these.”
”That's true! ”It's because I'm being a bit pretentious.” Chu Wendong smiled and nodded.
”w.a.n.g Dong, what do you think? If the two of us were to persuade our aunt to return to our country, would she agree?” Ji Shalei asked from the side.
”This...”
Chu w.a.n.gdong shook his head and said, ”Honestly speaking, I really don't know how to answer this question.”
Ji Shaorei asked, ”What do you mean?”
”This is because some of the things my mother did made it difficult for me to guess what she was thinking,” Chu Wudong explained. For example, in the Widal Group, whenever she interacted with Chinese or with Chinese from other places, she would try to speak Chinese as much as possible since she never spoke English. As you can see, in the group, when all the Chinese are communicating with each other, they are basically speaking Chinese. ”
Ji Shaorei nodded. He had noticed this as well.
Logically speaking, the Widal Group was a corporate company in the United States. The employees there came from all over the world, and of course, the majority of them had joined the United States. Since they were proficient in English, they naturally spoke English in the group.
Once, there was a female celebrity from China who had fought her way into Hollywood. Once, when she was interviewed by a Chinese reporter, the celebrity spoke English and made all the Chinese reporters stare blankly. It wasn't that the reporter didn't understand English, it was just that she didn't expect the celebrity to speak English with her own people.
However, within the Widal Group, there were many people who were speaking Chinese.
”From this, I can see that my mother has quite a lot of feelings for China.” Chu w.a.n.g Dong said, ”Based on your persuasion, I believe that she will most likely agree to return home.”
”Go on.” Ji Shaorei was not in a hurry to be happy. He could tell that Chu w.a.n.gdong still had something that he had yet to say.
”However, at home, Mother never mentioned anything about China!” Chu Wudong said, ”Even if we asked, she never mentioned it. Furthermore, until now, we still don't know why Mother never mentioned it when she first came to the United States!”
Ji Shaorei continued, ”So you think that I don't want to go back to China?”
Chu w.a.n.g Dong threw up his hands and smiled bitterly, ”That's why I said I don't know how to answer you. ”If her mother didn't have any feelings for China, she wouldn't insist on speaking Chinese in the company. But if she wanted to go back, then why was it that she never mentioned anything about China?”
Ji Feng asked, ”What do you think, little uncle-in-law?”
Chu Wudong shook his head and said, ”My father has never mentioned it either. I don't know if it's because he didn't want to talk about it, or because he didn't want to anger my mother!”
Ji Feng and Ji Shalei exchanged glances, and couldn't help but frown slightly.
It seemed that the matter wasn't as simple as they had imagined.
Previously, when Ji Feng first saw the information of his aunt's family, he was secretly delighted. When his aunt named his eldest son Chu w.a.n.gdong, didn't that mean she was looking towards the east?
Since ancient times, the East had always been referring to China. This was recognized by the entire world, so wasn't that aunt's meaning very clear?
But now it seems that my aunt still has a knot in her heart. It probably won't be that easy to persuade her to go back to China.
