"Well, young people are responsible, I like that. Zheng Hongyun patted his thigh and praised.

"Thank you, uncle!"

Zheng Qitong originally wanted to help Liu Bufan, but he didn't expect him to take the initiative to ask for battle, didn't he smell the smell of gunpowder and look for explosives-specifically hit the muzzle of the gun? He couldn't help but get angry, and quietly rubbed Liu Bufan's thigh twice with his hand, so painful that he straightened up, gritted his teeth and didn't dare to make a sound, and had to pretend to have a fake smile on his face.

"I wonder how many people are in Xiao He's family?" Zheng Hongyun then asked.

"My parents, and me, I am the only child in the family. ”

"Okay, how long have you known my family Qitong?"

"Uncle, we've known each other for more than half a year. ”

"Then what do you think of my family Qitong?"

This question is not mentioned in the script given by Zheng Qitong, it is a super-outline question, this is Liu Bufan's first reaction, Zheng Hongyun's purpose of asking this must be to understand his feelings for Zheng Qitong, so he can only improvise.

"Uncle, although I and Qitong have not known each other for a long time, we belong to love at first sight, there is a feeling of seeing each other late, we think we are each other's lifelong partners, Qitong is the love I have been pursuing, I like everything about her, I will definitely treat her as my princess in the future. Liu Bufan directly confessed affectionately, which shocked everyone present.

Liu Bufan also winked at Zheng Qitong, as if asking, how is it, I can answer, right? Is it very in line with your father's requirements? Although Zheng Qitong knew that this was fake, he was still very moved, and smiled at him with affection in his eyes.

"Okay! Xiao He, Qitong is my most distressed daughter, I value her more than anyone else, I am still very reluctant to marry her, I hope you don't let her down. Zheng Hongyun nodded with satisfaction and explained earnestly.

"Xiao He said it so well, our Qitong has finally found a good home, Hongyun, this is really a happy thing!" Lu Liwen said happily on the side.

"Then have you thought about the marriage between you and Qitong? I don't know what you planned?" Zheng Hongyun couldn't wait to ask about the marriage between the two.

"This..."Liu Bufan was about to answer.

"Dad, emotional matters need to be taken slowly, I'm not in a hurry, don't worry about me!" Zheng Qitong was afraid that his father would take it too seriously, so he answered first.

"You kid, you're not young anymore, why aren't you in a hurry, Xiao He is a good comrade, you have to cherish it. Zheng Hongyun was a little unhappy, his face became serious, and he criticized her.

"Feelings are a matter for both of us, and we have to decide. Zheng Qitong pulled her face and retorted.

"You, do you want to be angry with me?" Zheng Hongyun was trembling with anger and roared angrily.

"Let's not talk about it yet, let's eat first!" Lu Liwen saw that the atmosphere was not right, so she mediated.

The nanny had already brought out all the food, and the table was full, Zheng Hongyun stood up angrily, walked to the table and sat down. Lu Liwen walked up to Zheng Qitong, took her hand and said, "Qitong, don't be angry with your father, he is also for your good, let's go eat first!"

"Youcai, stop playing with your phone, let's eat!" she urged Zheng Youcai again.

Zheng Youcai walked to eat while playing with his mobile phone, and Zheng Qitong also got up slowly and took Liu Bufan to eat together.

After the family sat down, Lu Liwen poured a glass of red wine for each person, and then pushed Zheng Hongyun's arm, and said gently: "Hongyun, it's rare for Qitong to come back once, don't be angry, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, we as parents support them more, and the rest still depends on themselves, it's the New Year soon, you, as the head of the family, say a few words!"

After hearing this, Zheng Hongyun's face returned to a friendly face, picked up the red wine on the table and said: "This new year is coming soon, our family is reunited, farewell to the old and welcome the new, open a new atmosphere, I wish everyone a new harvest in the new year, cheers!"

"Happy New Year!"

"New Year, New Weather!"

......

Everyone said blessings and clinked glasses together.

Then, everyone began to eat, and after a few bites, Zheng Qitong picked up the wine glass and said to Zheng Hongyun and Lu Liwen: "Dad, Aunt Lu, I salute you, thank you for your care and concern for me over the years, I wish you good health, happiness like the East China Sea, and longevity than Nanshan!"

"You are my daughter, I don't care about you, who cares about you, as long as you can find a good home, it is my greatest blessing. Zheng Hongyun continued to nag about her marriage.

"Hongyun, the child sends us blessings, don't talk about this in the New Year, everyone has a happy meal and has a New Year. Lu Liwen persuaded.

"Come, Qitong, we respect you, and I wish you a smooth New Year's work, and all your wishes come true!" Lu Liwen smiled and toasted again.

"Thank you, Aunt Lu!" Zheng Qitong toasted with them.

"Dad, Mom, I also toast you, I wish you a long life and a long life!" Zheng Youcai said.

"If you are talented, work hard, and your marriage will be implemented by Dad as soon as possible. Zheng Hongyun said to him with a smile.

"Thank you, son, what a good son, and my mother wishes you all the best in the New Year. Lu Liwen looked at him dotingly, and a smile bloomed on her face.

"Thank you, Dad, thank you, Mom!" Zheng Youcai looked proud.

After the family finished toasting, Liu Bufan also picked up the wine glass and said to the second elder with a smile: "Uncle, aunt, this visit is really abrupt, I didn't discuss with you in advance, and I didn't bring any good gifts to the door, I hope you will forgive me, but I came to visit the second elder with a sincere heart, and I also came to visit with my sincerity to Qitong, I wish you a happy New Year, good health, a hundred blessings for the beginning of the year, everything goes well, and you will be blessed and longevity!"

"Okay, good, Xiao He has a heart!"

"Xiao He is polite, Auntie also wishes you a good harvest in your career and love in the New Year!"

"Thank you, aunt and uncle!"

After the wine was toasted, the family continued to eat, and in the process, Zheng Hongyun gave Liu Bufan a few glasses back, and Liu Bufan toasted their family a few glasses one by one until the end of this New Year's dinner.

Everyone sat in the living room to drink tea and rest, and Zheng Hongyun asked, "Xiao He, I don't know what hobbies you have?"

"Uncle, I have lived in the United States for a long time, I like basketball and rugby, but I am also very interested in traditional Chinese culture and am studying it. Liu Bufan knew that it was time for entertainment activities after dinner, so he wrote according to the script.

"Oh, I wonder how your research on calligraphy and Go is?" When Zheng Hongyun heard this, he became interested, wondering if the two had a common hobby.

"I know a little bit about it".

"Then let's discuss and discuss together, how about it?" Zheng Hongyun was even happier, as if he had met like-minded people.

"It's just that I'm not good at learning, so I don't dare to get an axe in front of my uncle. Liu Bufan was very modest and looked like he was going to postpone it.

"Hey, culture focuses on research and accumulation of experience, don't worry about it, let's discuss it, it's okay. Zheng Hongyun looked like he would not give up until he reached his goal.

"Okay, I'll make a fool of myself in front of my uncle. Liu Bufan knew that he couldn't escape, and he was already prepared, so he didn't shirk it again.

So, Zheng Hongyun took Liu Bufan to the study on the second floor, the room was very spacious, and it was divided into two rooms, the first room had a large long table, the table was covered with white paper, there were several large characters on it, and there were many calligraphy easels and frames, all of which were filled with put away calligraphy and paintings, and there was also a pair of calligraphy and paintings on the wall, which was the four big characters of "self-cultivation and cleanliness".

Zheng Hongyun was quite happy to see that Liu Bufan was reading the calligraphy and paintings framed on the wall, so he asked: "What does Comrade Xiao He think of my calligraphy?"

Liu Bufan retracted his gaze, looked at him and said: "Uncle, this calligraphy is very exquisite, the pen does not stop, the paper is not engraved, the light turn is heavy and pressed, like water flowing and clouds, there is no interruption, and you can't write without decades of skills!"

"Haha, Xiao He Miao is rewarded, I also have nothing to do, just practice casually. Zheng Hongyun laughed and said humbly.

"Uncle is too modest, you choose these four words to hang in the study, it seems that my uncle wants to use history as a mirror, discipline himself, and be a model for us to learn. Liu Bufan saw the origin of Zheng Hongyun's four words and praised it.

"Oh, Comrade Xiao He knows the origin of these four words, you might as well talk about it!" Zheng Hongyun asked with some surprise.

"Self-cultivation and cleanliness began to come out of Sima Qian's "Historical Records: The Biography of Wei Gongzi", when Xinling Jun recruited Hou Huan, he gave a generous gift, which said, the ministers have been clean for decades, and finally did not suffer from the prince's wealth because of the prison door; ”

"Okay, it seems that Xiao He not only has a special study of calligraphy, but also knows a lot about Chinese culture!" Zheng Hongyun was impressed by Liu Bufan again, and he had changed from satisfaction to appreciation, and even felt like he had met a bosom friend.

"Uncle has won the award, Chinese culture is a very valuable and excellent cultural heritage of our country, and it is the common wealth of all mankind, and we, as the descendants of Yan and Huang, should pass it on. Liu Bufan replied with a humble face.

"Well said, Chinese culture is our country's culture, is our root, this can not be lost, but unfortunately, today's young people are too impetuous, only want to be greedy for pleasure, can not calmly learn the quintessence of the country, but afraid that in the near future, these precious culture will gradually be lost. Zheng Hongyun had a look of loss on his face and said with emotion.

"Uncle, don't be too negative, our country is now in a period of transition, the continuous emergence of various trendy cultures and the influx of foreign materials will inevitably have an impact on our traditional culture, our young generation is only temporarily fresh and curious, we can still distinguish between right and wrong, good and evil and essence dross, now the country is advocating the realization of the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, our generation will also shoulder the responsibility to pass on the excellent culture of our motherland. Liu Bufan strengthened his spirit, analyzed the current national situation in a clear manner, and added confidence to Zheng Hongyun.

"Xiao He, you are right, the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, your generation will eventually take over the baton, the culture of the motherland needs to be inherited by you, we should also believe in you, our country will eventually realize the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Zheng Hongyun began to be optimistic, and he was full of confidence and expectation for the future of New China.

"That's right, we just need time to guide, as long as the helmsman controls the direction, the big ship of our country will go forward to the goal. Liu Bufan said firmly.

"Okay, I'm really happy today, Comrade Xiao He, how about you accompany me to practice calligraphy?" Zheng Hongyun was so excited that he invited Liu Bufan to practice calligraphy together.

"Listen to my uncle's dispatch. ”

"Xiao He, don't call me uncle, it's too raw, how about calling me Dad Zheng in the future?" Zheng Hongyun loves Liu Bufan very much, and he can't wait to recognize this son-in-law immediately, so he wants him to change his name.

"Uncle, this is not very good, I'm afraid Qitong will be unhappy. Liu Bufan didn't expect him to be so anxious, so he was a little panicked and moved out of Zheng Qitong to postpone.

"I'm her son, what opinion can she have!" Zheng Hongyun said domineeringly.

"Uncle, do you think this is good? When no one is around, I call you Zheng Dad, and I still call you Uncle when someone is present. Liu Bufan proposed.

"Okay! Let's practice calligraphy. Zheng Hongyun considered that Liu Bufan had not officially become his son-in-law, and he was afraid that others would gossip, so he agreed.

The two of them were in the study, one inkstone, one writing, Liu Bufan also showed his hands under Zheng Hongyun's repeated requests, he was slightly embarrassed, the words were really not good, but Zheng Hongyun did not dislike it, but taught him a lot of tricks and methods, and seemed to teach him as his own disciple.
