Chapter 404: Heading South
The more Cao Yufeng planned his life, the more he worked towards this goal, the more cautious he became to walk on thin ice, and he didn't dare to let the slightest thing delay his pace, so he was a little tired. In contrast, Xia Ding is always unorthodox, wandering flowers are bohemian, most of the time is spent on picking up girls instead of working, and it seems that he lives a carefree life very easily.
Everyone has their own choice, Qin Sheng doesn't dare to say who is wrong and who is right, after all, they are still young now, and it will take at least twenty or thirty years to make a judgment on right and wrong, maybe Cao Yufeng, who is tired now, will be easier at that time, and Xia Ding at that time may not be as happy as he is now.
Today's Qin Sheng can't control others, just like today, although they got angry in the end, but Qin Sheng owes Ma Weiyang a favor, and even more to Song Hesheng, this favor will have to be repaid sooner or later, so what he can do is to make himself strong as soon as possible, so that he can have more choices.
Back in the courtyard of the Qin family, Qin Sheng found that the courtyard full of red lanterns was particularly beautiful at night, if you didn't look up at those high-rise buildings in the distance, it would be like returning to the ancient deep boudoir compound.
Qin Changan hasn't come back yet, it seems that as long as he goes out at night, Qin Changan will come back very late. In the living room, someone was watching a variety show intently, and he was a little less ladylike with a smile, of course, there was no one else except Qin Ran.
"Sister, are you back so early?" After Qin Sheng came in, he saw his sister holding a pillow on the sofa and smiling coquettishly, and there were a lot of fruits and snacks on the table.
Qin Ran raised his head and replied, "In the past, I just stayed for a while, not to mention that you made such a fuss, and everyone was not interested, so they dispersed early, they went clubbing in the Gongti, I thought it was boring and came back."
"Did I do something wrong today?" Qin Sheng said cautiously as he sat next to him like a child who had done something wrong.
Qin Ran cried and laughed, "There's nothing wrong, your friend is being bullied, if you sit idly by, it's not right."
Qin Sheng said with confidence, "Thanks to you and Sister Mawei today, as well as the man from the Song family, otherwise, if I was there alone, I was afraid that I would have to walk around without eating, and I was a little impulsive at that time."
"Don't think about it so much, this circle is like this, you will slowly understand in the future, Chen Taihe may not fight for Du Xuan and them, he is just for face, this is his prestige in the circle. Song Hesheng is the same, he's not helping you, he's just for himself," Qin Ran explained with a smile.
Qin Sheng said thoughtfully, "Shall I go back and thank him?"
"Don't be so deliberate, just say it casually next time you see you, but he may not appreciate it, I guess he doesn't have a good impression of you," Qin Ran said with interest.
Qin Sheng was puzzled, "Why? Is it because of this incident? No matter who is present today, I will do this, it's a big deal to go back and apologize, even if it's kowtow and admit my mistake, but I will definitely do it at that time."
Qin Ran thought of that Song Ruyu, and estimated that Qin Sheng was making such a fuss today, Song Hesheng was even more dissatisfied with Qin Sheng, of course she wouldn't explain, she just said happily, "You'll know later"
The sister and brother chatted for a while and then rested, Qin Ran told Qin Sheng the specific arrangements for tomorrow, going out at eight o'clock to pay New Year's greetings, running two families first, and finally having lunch at his uncle's house, and then coming back to entertain guests.
The next morning, after breakfast, Qin Ran took Qin Sheng out of the door, Gongsun prepared gifts according to the custom, Qin Ran was very familiar with the few houses he was going to, today was not an old man, but two bigwigs of the same generation who were close to Qin Chang'an, and the rest of Qin Chang'an had his own arrangements. Qin Ran and Qin Sheng are going to a few houses that they must go, otherwise if they have to go to each family, the sisters and brothers will not be exhausted to death.
For the arrival of Qin Ran and Qin Sheng, Qin Changan also arrived in advance to greet him, so everything went well, Qin Sheng was very concerned about the two elders of the family, and the identities of these two were not simple, after all, Qin Changan could let Qin Sheng go to pay New Year's greetings, so he naturally had his thoughts.
In the end, the sister and brother rushed to a military compound before noon, which was their uncle's house, Qin Ran was very familiar with it, and reported it to him.
In the two-story small building, except for Zhu Weiguo, everyone else has been waiting for Qin Sheng and Qin Ran for a long time, today Wu Yajun personally cooked, and the two daughters-in-law helped to help, the nanny had already gone home for the New Year, but everything that should have been prepared was prepared in advance.
"Mom, Ran Ran and Xiao Shengzi have arrived" After Qin Sheng and Qin Ran came in, Zhu Qingyuan hurriedly caught them, and Zhu Fengyuan ran into the kitchen to inform them.
Wu Yajun hurriedly put down the things in her hands and walked out with her two daughters-in-law, and said with a smile, "You guys are quite punctual, lunch will be ready soon, sit in the living room, let your two cousins chat with you first"
"Auntie, I'll help you," Qin Ran said with a smile and prepared to go to the kitchen.
Wu Yajun said angrily, "Are you sure you're not doing you a favor?" I've been in the kitchen a few times since I was a child, and the first time I helped me, I almost ordered the kitchen, and I didn't know you."
Qin Ran laughed and said, "My aunt still understands me, then we will sit back and enjoy it."
Qin Sheng didn't forget to mend the knife and said, "Sister, it turns out that you still have such a fierce past, it's already polite that your aunt didn't let you in, or I'll teach you to cook when you go back."
"Go aside, cooking is amazing, I'll just find a husband who can cook in the future" Qin Ran glared at Qin Sheng and snorted coldly.
After the two sat down, Zhu Qingyuan poured them two cups of tea, and the second cousin-in-law washed some fruit and sent it out, Qin Ran asked casually, "Cousin, what about uncle, won't you go to condolences?"
"We set off early yesterday morning, this year has been calculated, and we didn't come back on Chinese New Year's Eve in the first two years, so ah, we are stained with the light of your brothers and sisters this year" Zhu Qingyuan said with a smile.
Qin Ran sighed and said, "Oh, I thought my uncle was going to accompany us to Shanghai to pay New Year's greetings to my grandmother this year."
"The old man happened to be in Jiangsu a few years ago, so he took the time to go to Shanghai, and the old lady has been used to it for so many years. This year, the two of you are the most important protagonists, so it doesn't matter if the old man goes or not," Zhu Fengyuan joked with a smile.
"I'm not the protagonist, the old lady doesn't care about me, someone is the protagonist this year, I'm afraid that I will have to prepare blood pressure medication for the old lady in advance" Qin Sheng stared at Qin Sheng and covered his mouth and smiled, and then asked again, "Then who will accompany us"
Zhu Qingyuan replied, "Your aunt must stay at home to receive guests, Fengyuan will return to the army in the afternoon, there is only such a three-day holiday, and the family has to leave someone to help, so I can only go to Shanghai with your sister-in-law and your children, and we haven't seen the old lady for several months."
Qin Ran, the eldest cousin, can understand these words, I am afraid that it is rare to have a chance to reunite in such a family, this is the case with many families in these Sijiu City, the family and the country have been in a dilemma since ancient times, she sighed and said, "Then I will send a car to pick you and my sister-in-law tomorrow morning."
At this time, Zhu Fengyuan's daughter-in-law came out of the kitchen and said, "It's time to eat."
The crowd then moved to the restaurant......
The atmosphere of lunch is very warm, they are all family here, there is no need to taboo any identity, not to mention that Zhu Weiguo is not there, these juniors are not stressed, and they talk freely and make all kinds of jokes. Qin Sheng drank some wine with his two cousins, but he knew that the second cousin was going back to the army in the afternoon, so he was not greedy for a cup until he ordered.
After eating lunch and staying for a while, Qin Ran took Qin Sheng back to the courtyard, and there were also a few guests from the Zhu family's small building, all of whom were Wu Yajun's nieces and nephews.
When I returned to the courtyard, compared to yesterday, the Qin family had a lot of guests today, and the courtyard was full of people, Qin Chang'an was somewhat tired in the face of so many guests, not to mention that he came back late last night and didn't rest well, but fortunately, Qin Sheng and Qin Ran came back at this time, which made Qin Changan relieved.
At dinner, the people who stayed at Qin's house to eat were Qin Changan's several close friends, and they had to drink more or less during the New Year, Qin Changan's wine strength last night had not eased up, and he went upstairs to rest after a while, leaving only Qin Sheng and Qin Ran to accompany him, these people were familiar with Qin Ran, it was the first time they saw Qin Sheng, and they were shocked when they learned Qin Sheng's identity.
Therefore, the final result is that Qin Sheng was drunk by these men, after all, men's relationships are maintained by alcohol. Qin Ran couldn't help much, because he had to take care of those two women. It was already nine o'clock when the dinner ended, and after sending a few guests out of the door, and seeing them get into the car, Qin Sheng fell directly into his sister's arms, completely unconscious, which made Qin Ran very distressed.
When Qin Ran and Gongsun helped Qin Sheng in, it didn't take long for Qin Sheng to vomit, and the angry Qin Ran almost went to smash Qin Chang'an's door, but you were relieved, let my brother suffer for you, but fortunately Gongsun stopped him.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, it is advisable to travel far away.
Although he took a hot bath and drank two bowls of porridge, Qin Sheng's strength still did not slow down, he had a headache and was sleepy and weak, Qin Changan sat on the sofa in the living room and told him about going to Shanghai, what was for the old lady, what was for their aunt and uncle, of course, there were other tasks to go to Shanghai. Qin Ran glared at Qin Changan angrily, obviously he hadn't forgiven him yet, Qin Changan had long been used to it, so he completely ignored it.
"I went to Shanghai, don't say bad things about me to your grandmother, the old lady didn't treat me well" After arranging things, Qin Changan joked with a smile, wanting to ease the relationship with his daughter, although he knew that it was in vain.
Qin Ran sneered, "If you don't go out, how do you know if I will say it?"
"I want to go, but the old lady may not see me," Qin Changan sighed.
Qin Ran gloated and said, "Oh, not necessarily this time, my uncle has come to our house for the New Year, you can try it."
"Hahaha, I'd better wait for you to go, probe the old lady's tone, and I'll think about it again" Qin Changan is not fooled, he didn't eat once or twice behind closed doors, and he couldn't leave for the New Year.
Qin Ran scolded Qin Chang'an, and then said with satisfaction, "Okay, I'll plead for my grandmother, it's almost, we should go too."
Qin Sheng didn't speak, he couldn't take care of it, he had a headache and stomach ache, so he had to quickly adjust his state, if he arrived in Shanghai and continued to drink at night, he would be embarrassed at that time.
Qin Changan walked in front of Qin Sheng at this time, and said earnestly, "The old lady will be very happy to see you, you are her most beloved grandson, you can stay in Shanghai for a few more days, and accompany the old man well, after all, it has been more than 20 years."
Qin Sheng's mood was inexplicably a little heavy, during this time, he had heard a lot of interesting stories when he was a child, and the most was how much his grandparents loved him, so he was going to see his grandmother, but Qin Sheng was a little nervous, he was afraid that the old man would be disappointed.
Departure and heading to the airport, Qin Changan arranged for two bodyguards to accompany him this time, after all, it was in Shanghai, not to mention the threat of the Yan family, so he had to be careful.
He and Gongsun Mu came back after sending their sister and brother away, and when Qin Sheng saw the old lady, the Qin family and the Zhu family's more than 20 years of personal debt was really over.
Arriving at the airport at eleven o'clock, Zhu Qingyuan and his wife had been waiting for a long time with their children, and after the two sides converged, they went through the security check and got on the plane, and they took off not long after.
Qin Sheng looked at the city of Beijing that was getting farther and farther away, thinking of the past events in Shanghai, and couldn't help but squint his eyes and say, "Shanghai, I'm back"
