Some time ago, when Qiangzi was free, he went to a big temple in Shen Jiang to worship Buddha, mainly to pray that Buddha would bless the health of his parents at home. Although he had left the small county on the east side of the river to live in the metropolis of Shen Jiang, his parents were not willing to leave. Like Old Ruan and his wife, they did not like to change their environment when they were old. They felt that it was not as comfortable as where they lived.
To put it bluntly, the elderly were also afraid of causing trouble for their children. After their adaptability declined, they were unwilling to go far away. Ruan Qingshuang knew that Qiang's father had a cerebral thrombosis some time ago. Fortunately, Xiaofei got some fresh crabs that day and sent a few to the old man. He saw this scene in time and was rescued in time. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Ruan Qingshuang thought of this when she saw the prayer beads on Qiang's wrist. She smiled and said, "I heard that you are preparing to convert to Buddha. Is it true?"
Qiang put down the wine glass and laughed at himself. "Wine and meat pass through the intestines, but Buddha stays in the heart." Then he said to Ruan Qingshuang, "People say that people should have faith. That way, life will be more meaningful. I think I should have faith too. I don't understand the Westerners' God and angels, so I should follow them. I hope that the Buddha Lord can bless everyone around us to be safe and sound. "
As long as he was safe … Ruan Qingshuang could not help but think of Xu Yun. She wondered if he had found the person he was looking for at this moment.
Mr. Ruan seemed to have seen through his daughter's thoughts. When they were chatting, they talked about finding Ruan Chao. Xu Yun asked a friend to inquire about it. But now that Ruan Chao was home, why didn't Xu Yun come with them? Could it be that his daughter had a conflict with him? Or he was in a hurry and could not leave.
"Qingshuang, why didn't Xu Yun come with you this time?" Mr. Ruan wanted to suppress his curiosity, but in the end, he could not control his mouth. After all, he liked that young man too much. If his daughter had a conflict with him, he would definitely criticize her. If it wasn't for Xu Yun, would the Ruan family be where they were today? He probably wouldn't have the chance to do so in his next life.
"He has something to do," Ruan Qingshuang said. "It's very important, so he doesn't have time to visit you."
Old Ruan finally relaxed and nodded. "Oh, oh, so it's like this. A few days ago, Cripple Yang's eldest son from next door gave me a newspaper. He said that you're starting a movie group or something. Xu Yun is the boss of that company. He even invited a group of foreigners to model for our Hua Xia …"
"Dad, that's called walking the red carpet. They are all international A-list superstars. "Ruan Qingshuang explained," We spent a lot of money to invite them. "
Old Ruan didn't think much of it. "What? They only came for a short walk. Do they dare to ask you for a hundred or two hundred thousand yuan?"
In his eyes, a hundred thousand or two hundred thousand was a sky-high price! Ruan Qingshuang didn't want to tell him. The lowest appearance fee for these big names was a few million. If her father knew, he would definitely say that they were wastrels.
"Uncle Ruan, my Brother Yun's Sky Entertainment Group paid two billion for this event. A hundred thousand or two hundred thousand won't even be enough to cover the waiter's salary." Qiang drank a lot and couldn't keep his mouth shut.
Ruan Qingshuang glanced at him and coughed lightly. Qiang suddenly understood and hurriedly said to Old Ruan, "Hehe, Uncle Ruan, I have a bad habit when I drink too much. I like to brag! Please don't mind. Just treat it as a joke. Hahaha, my mother always said that I can't change this habit of mine … "
Only then did Old Ruan let out a sigh of relief. That's right. He must be bragging. Two billion was not even a concept in the mind of this old man from the mountain village. This number was enough to make him panic and fear.
Then, everyone's topic began to shift to Xu Yun. No matter what, Qiang praised his Brother Yun for being so amazing. It didn't matter if what he said was true or just bragging. In any case, Xu Yun was his idol, his role model. He was the person he wanted to learn from in this life, the next life, and even the life after that!
Old Ruan and his wife were full of praise for Xu Yun. Xu Yun gave their daughter the courage to go home and asked his friends to help renovate the house. He made the Ruan family the most magnificent family in the entire village. In the past, no one in the village looked up to him. He was already sixty years old, so it didn't matter. He was just afraid that he would embarrass his ancestors.
In addition, Ruan Qingshuang and Ruan Chao left one after another. He didn't even have a son or daughter by his side, which made people look down on him even more.
However, Xu Yun's appearance changed everything. He became the brightest star in the village. Now, on the road, who of the same generation dared to not greet him when they saw him? Who of the younger generation dared to not greet him when they saw him? Even people of the younger generation knew that this Grandpa Ruan was amazing. He had a capable son-in-law!
Old Ruan knew in his heart that these people who had never left the mountains and had never seen the world hoped that their next generation could leave the mountains and see the world. If his Qingshuang could help them a little, it could change the fate of their family for the rest of their lives.
Old Ruan didn't agree to those explicit hints. He knew that he shouldn't cause trouble for his daughter. Especially his daughter's relationship with Xu Yun … This, Xu Yun's parents hadn't formally proposed marriage to his family, so Old Ruan didn't dare to act rashly. He also didn't stop his daughter from being together with Xu Yun. He knew that the young people in the city were open-minded and couldn't be compared to them.
However, every time Old Ruan saw the children of the younger generation in the village, he couldn't help but wonder when his daughter could give him a grandson since he couldn't count on his son. That way, he could enjoy a few days of familial happiness while he was still alive.
Now, his son was suddenly standing in front of him, full of vigor and vitality. Although his face was disfigured by the scar, and there were so many serious injuries on his body, he was still the hope for the continuation of the Ruan family's bloodline! Old Ruan now hoped that Xu Yun was here because he wanted to talk to him and ask him to introduce a girl to Ruan Chao.
The old man considered many things and never stopped. When there was no news of Ruan Chao, he only hoped that the child would come back. Now that the child was back, his thoughts ran to finding a wife for the child to get married and have children.
Although Xu Yun didn't come, his daughter was here. She wouldn't watch her brother be a bachelor.
After dinner, Old Ruan took advantage of the time when Ruan Chao and Qiang were chatting to his daughter, who was washing the dishes, and told her his idea. Ruan Qingshuang felt that her father was being a little too hasty, but she could understand. After all, Ruan Chao was the continuation of the Ruan family's bloodline. The old man felt that everything was worth it to have what he had today. His only wish was to hold a grandson as soon as possible. Everything else was fleeting.
Ruan Qingshuang nodded and promised her father that she would talk to Ruan Chao about this matter in the evening. Of course, she would use all her connections to find a partner for Ruan Chao. Family members wouldn't despise each other. Even if Ruan Chao had a scar on his face, they still found him pleasing to the eye.
Old Ruan was relieved. With his daughter's current status, his son definitely wouldn't be afraid of not being able to find a wife. If he really couldn't find one in the city, then they just had to shout in the village. Young ladies who were about to get married would come crashing into their house. This was the most convenient shortcut for their family to rise to the top.
