Chapter 36: One Hundred Days

To be honest, a young and beautiful girl like Zhao Ya is very attractive to Li Ran, and for a man like him who has tasted meat, it is really uncomfortable to have no life for nearly two months.

If it was still in the previous life, there was such a pure girl who expressed her love for him, he would definitely accept it without hesitation, but now as a father of two children, as a husband whose wife has only been dead for three months, he has no energy or interest to start a relationship.

Although it seems that all this is a historical problem left over from the overturned car of the former old driver, for Li Ran, who has inherited the memory of his predecessor for 23 years, it is completely his own life course, the strictness of his father when he was young, the meticulous care and love of his mother, and the innocent love with Qin Yu. Two completely different lives, strangely fused together, two different memories exist in the mind without the slightest conflict, I have to say that it is a miracle.

Maybe it's a miracle caused by the human brain, or maybe it's caused by a mysterious soul, he's not a biologist or a soulist, so he doesn't think about it if he can't figure it out. In short, it is not impossible to think of it as a memorable dream.

I am worried about my late child's mother, and the two children in the family are still young, not to mention that although I have been trying my best to avoid the two families, I will have to face it one day. The marriage of the big family is very important for the red family, which is becoming more and more serious, and how can a faction be stable for a long time if it is maintained only by the relationship of interests.

Li Ran's three older brothers and sisters in front of him can barely be regarded as free love, because there was the suppression of the old man in the past, and at that time, it was basically decided by various family factions, so naturally there was no need to force children to marry. Several families that are close to each other may introduce each other to each other or something, and whether it can be done or not depends on the wishes of the parties. At that time, the children's marriage family didn't particularly care, as long as the two families didn't have too deep a grudge, it didn't matter at all.

Just like Li Ran and Qin Yuqing, there was no grudge between the two families, and the older generation was still comrades-in-arms, but the relationship was not harmonious because of friction between factions from time to time. In the past, this was a small matter, and maybe there would be less struggle because of the relationship between the children. But not now, the academic faction is pressing step by step, the families within the family faction are forming gangs, the mountains are full of internal friction, and the Li family is in the ascending period and wants to carry the banner. Two factors determine that the marriage between the Li family and the Shen family will not be terminated due to the resistance of several juniors, so there is also the tragedy of the two predecessors.

Li Ran, who happened to be on the cusp of the storm, clearly knew that the matter was not over, and he would not be naïve enough to think that the struggle of his predecessor would change anything. The current peace is just that because Qin Yuqing is unwilling to force him too quickly, it is estimated that the situation will change after a while. It is precisely because of this that he rejects Zhao Ya's feelings a little indifferently, he doesn't want a simple girl to have hope for a love that cannot have results from the beginning.

If you don't fall in love for the purpose of getting married, you are a hooligan, and being responsible for love should be every man's bottom line, but many people can't do it. But Li Ran, who has been educated by northern machismo in both lives, has always strictly adhered to this bottom line, and has never stepped on a few boats half-heartedly for women in his past and present lives. So even if he had a good impression of Zhao Ya, he still decisively cut off the love thread.

He himself is a rational person, and he will think about the feasibility of facing one thing, and rationally analyze to see if he can find a feasible solution, instead of driving recklessly like his predecessor, thinking that he is the god of autumn cars, and after overturning, he can only have a blank brain and no way at all. And although Li Ran doesn't have much affection for marriage, he is not as opposed to it as his predecessor, although there is also a relationship in which he has never found a woman worthy of his desperation.

In his opinion, after two people have been together for a long time, they will naturally have a tacit understanding similar to family affection, just like the ancients said, raise their eyebrows and respect each other. Even if two people have very different personalities or someone has a heart, they can go through their own lives without interfering with each other, and when the time comes, they can naturally divorce peacefully, which is not good. It's really not worth ignoring the beauty of life for the sake of love and marriage, and living in the gloom all day long.

Life is not only about what is in front of you, but also about poetry and distance. Li Ran has always been at ease in life, looking at everything he encounters in life with the eyes of looking at the scenery, whether it is good or bad, it is a different scenery for him.

His mentality is like now in life, when he encounters things that annoy him, such as Zhao Ya's feelings, he will selectively forget it like he treats the scenery he doesn't like, and shift his attention to the scenery he likes, such as buying a set of high-end and comfortable furniture.

Took Chen Hu out of the company, found a restaurant casually, had a simple lunch, and was in a hurry to go to the furniture city, after all, he was still very short of time, the company had a lot of things, and he had other plans. If you don't have much time and want to buy a comfortable and beautiful set of furniture for your new home, you naturally have to hurry.

The furniture of the 90s was the period when the modern furniture system in China was initially formed. With the production equipment, management level and international standards, the design vision of domestic furniture continues to expand, not only to meet the needs of domestic users, but also began to export, making the production of Chinese furniture show an unprecedented prosperity. In fact, because of this, the high-end furniture of this period is not much less comfortable than the furniture of later generations.

A number of furniture companies such as Huahe, Huafeng and Guangming began to rise in the eighties and launched a series of panel furniture in response to market demand. Panel furniture is modern, beautiful and convenient, sought after by many people, until the nineties, in line with international standards, the progress in design is more exquisite.

As a master who is not short of money, Li Ran is naturally good at what he buys. The living room features an American-style leather sofa and matching TV cabinet, as well as a coffee table with a marble top. He bought a double bed in solid wood for his bedroom, and the main reason for choosing it was that it was well designed, striking a balance between appearance and comfort. The spring elasticity of the mattress is very good, and imported resin cotton and foam are also used, which is very comfortable. In addition, the bedroom is also equipped with a closet of similar colors and a small TV cabinet, so that the furniture in the main house is fully lived.

The three rooms in the backyard are not small, two of them are to be left for the two children to use when they grow up, and the other one is for vanilla to live in temporarily, and the bedrooms of the two children each simply bought a good single bed, plus a wardrobe, and the others are planned to come according to the children's preferences in the future. The one where Vanilla lived bought a double bed, because she had to take care of the children, plus the wardrobe and TV cabinet couldn't fit anything.

Li Ran planned to make a guest room, and considering that it would be redecorated in the future, he was afraid that it would be troublesome at that time, so he bought two sets of sofas and two beds, which was just to deal with it, after all, it was estimated that there would be no guests, so Chen Hu lived, and he could go to the living room if he wanted to watch TV.

A lot of furniture cost a small 20,000 yuan, and the owner of the furniture store naturally responded to Li Ran's big money owner, and said very politely that there was no problem with the delivery and door installation.

Explain to Chen Hu and let him take the workers of the furniture store to deliver the goods and pack them by the way. Li Ran went to an old alley in the east city of the department store to find a master to make two pairs of silver locks, because the two children were about to reach the hundredth day. Northern custom children after 100 days on behalf of the child over the most likely time to die, from then on healthy growth, the family is generally to greet relatives and friends, neighbors and villagers to celebrate, but also to hang a long-life lock for the child.

Li Ran didn't want to set up a banquet and toss, so he just invited some neighbors in the alley to have a meal when the time came. But he can do anything else, and he cares about children's affairs. He deliberately inquired with the old man in the alley, and knew that there was an old silversmith in Dongcheng who had made jewelry for the Empress Dowager Cixi, and the ancestral craftsmanship was quite good.
