Chen Minxia was puzzled by Old Master Ruan's gaze, so she ignored him.
Old Master Ruan had only become famous in recent years. When Chen Minxia married him, he was just an ordinary teacher, so he was not as awe-inspiring as he was now.
At first, Chen Minxia was shocked by Old Master Ruan's character, but she gradually got used to it. Now she had become numb to it.
Even though Old Master Ruan now had a series of admirable titles, no one in the family felt that he was worthy of much respect. It was because Old Master Ruan had too much of a personality. His brilliance overshadowed everything else.
Old Master Ruan said to the little fellow, "Come on, let me hold you."
"Haha." The little fellow laughed maliciously and immediately pounced on Old Master Ruan, slamming his back against the back of the sofa.
Who told you to call me fat?
"Ouch!" Old Master Ruan rubbed his chest and touched the little fatty's body. He laughed dryly and said, "You Xuan is really a strong child. Haha."
Old Master Ruan had just returned. He held the little fellow and talked to Ruan Danchen for a while. Although Ruan Keshan had told him everything, Old Master Ruan still wanted to know from Ruan Danchen.
Old Lady Ruan looked at her watch and finally interrupted them. She said, "Don't forget that we have an appointment to go to the Qi family. We can't go too late. It's impolite."
"Yes, yes." Old Master Ruan suddenly thought of something. He carried the little fellow down with great difficulty and rubbed his waist as he walked to the suitcase. He picked up a paper bag with the logo of an airport duty-free shop and took out five boxes of different kinds of chocolates from the bag. Old Master Ruan thought for a while.
Finally, he handed them to the little fellow who had been watching eagerly.
"I came and went in a hurry, so I didn't have time to go shopping. I could only walk around the airport. I didn't know what to buy. When I thought of You Xuan, I thought that children should like it." Old Master Ruan said with a smile. He puffed out his chest and looked like he was waiting for praise.
"Thank you, Great Grandpa. You are my dearest person!" The little fellow beamed with joy. His smile was like a steamed bun. It was as if he was excited to eat.
"You can only eat one pill a day," Qi Chenglin suddenly said faintly.
Before the little fellow could protest, Old Master Ruan chuckled and said, "Losing weight?"
Qi Youxuan: "…"
Why did he feel that his great-grandpa was so annoying?
"Hehe, since that's the case, I'll leave these here first. You can take one box back and come back for more when you're done. Great Grandpa will supervise you so that you don't eat too much." Old Master Ruan stuffed the smallest box of chocolates into the little fellow's chubby hands and swept the rest into his arms. He opened a box in front of the little fellow, took out a shell-shaped chocolate, and stuffed it into his mouth. "Oh, it melts in my mouth, hahaha."
Qi Youxuan: "…"
Old Lady Ruan grabbed the box of chocolates in his arms, along with the box that had been opened. "Be careful of your diabetes!"
Old Lady Ruan rolled up a few boxes of chocolates and put them into the cupboard. When she came out, she urged Old Master Ruan, "Hurry up and change into clean clothes. We're going to the in-laws' place."
Old Master Ruan smiled and pinched the little fat on Qi Youxuan's cheeks before walking into the bedroom.
"…" Qi Chenglin was silent for a while and suddenly said, "I suddenly know who Youxuan's character is like."
It was no wonder that no one in the Qi family had a personality like Qi Youxuan's.
Everyone: "…"
After a while, Old Master Ruan came out and saw that the living room was strangely quiet. No one was talking.
As soon as he came out, all eyes fell on him.
"What are you looking at? Why is it so quiet all of a sudden? "Old Master Ruan looked left and right but did not find anything wrong with himself.
"Hehe, let's go." Old Lady Ruan was too embarrassed to say more.
Ruan Keshan's car was still being repaired. Fortunately, Old Master Ruan had asked the driver to wait outside and did not let him leave. So, with Qi Chenglin's car, there were two cars and eight people.
Old Master Ruan got into Qi Chenglin's car first and sat in the back with Qi Youxuan. He kept looking at Qi Youxuan and smiled, which made Qi Youxuan's hair stand on end.
"Great-grandfather, don't smile like that!" The little boy could not stand it and said.
"Why?" Old Master Ruan was puzzled.
"It's too scary!" The little boy rubbed his arms and hid.
Old Master Ruan: "…"
…
Old Master Ruan made a fuss all the way until they finally arrived at the old mansion.
Qi Youxuan breathed a sigh of relief. After getting out of the car, he exhaled heavily. After spending so much time with Old Master Ruan, the pressure was really too much.
Everyone was still walking behind, but Qi Youxuan had already run into the yard and pressed the doorbell.
He did not expect Old Master Ruan and Old Lady Ruan to be waiting at the door. He quickly welcomed them in enthusiastically.
When Old Master Ruan didn't speak, he really looked like a scientist.
Old Lady Ruan said to Old Master Ruan with special admiration, "You saw that you rushed over immediately after getting off the plane today. In fact, you really don't have to be so anxious. After resting, our two families can get together and talk. That's the most relaxing thing."
"It's okay." Old Master Ruan waved his hand. "Anyway, I slept on the plane the whole time. I'm really not sleepy. I'm very energetic now!"
Everyone saw that Old Master Ruan was full of energy and did not look like he was tired. They also felt that such a leading figure was actually so approachable. He was indeed an old scientist with high ideological awareness.
Even Guan Liya and Xia Wenna looked at him with admiration.
Old Lady Ruan and Ruan Keshan's faces twitched.
Old Lady Ruan said to Old Lady Ruan, "Danchen is blessed to be able to marry such a good man like Chenglin. You also treat her well and do not value her identity. We … really don't know how to thank you. "
"Don't mention it. You're treating me like an outsider. Danchen is our daughter-in-law. She's like half a daughter. If Chenglin likes her, then we like her too. If we don't treat her well, won't it make Chenglin feel bad? "Old Lady Ruan said with a smile.
At that moment, Old Master Ruan's phone rang. It was a call from the leader.
"Old Master, have you arrived?"
"I'm here. I'm at my in-laws' house," Old Master Ruan said very honestly.
"Didn't you go back to see your granddaughter?"
"Yes, I'm back with my granddaughter to my grandson-in-law's house."
The leader was speechless.
This development was fast enough.
"Since everything has been settled, do you want to go to the United States again? The meeting hasn't started yet. It's not too late for you to go back. "
When Old Master Ruan heard that, he immediately howled. "I'm already a bag of old bones. Do you have the heart to do that? Do you have to do this? You want me to sacrifice my life for a yearly meeting, don't you? Let me tell you, death can be as light as a feather or as heavy as Mount Tai. I can't be as light as a feather for this small meeting. I want to fight for human development and scientific progress. My life is heavier than Mount Tai! "
The leader was speechless.
"It's not that serious, right?"
The leader subconsciously said what was on his mind.
"Why not? I just met my granddaughter and saw my great-grandson. I haven't had enough kissing yet! Do you have the heart to separate our family? I've been crying my heart out at home. I'm depressed when you ask me to leave! I'm already so old. I can't stand mental illness. What if something happens to me because of depression? "Old Master Ruan was already on the verge of tears.
The leader was speechless.
"Youxuan, it's all because I'm useless. I can't make the decision myself. It's not easy for me to come back to see you, but I have to be called back again!" Old Master Ruan said while crying.
The little girl ran into Old Master Ruan's arms and wailed into the phone. "Sob sob sob sob, Great-grandpa, I can't bear to part with you. Sob sob sob, Great-grandpa, don't go. Your Xuanxuan only reunited with you after seven years. I can't bear to part with you! Sob sob sob sob … "
The leader listened to the grandfather and granddaughter crying their hearts out on the phone. He felt a headache coming on.
What was going on? Why did the two of them cry as if they were going to be separated forever?
"Granddaughter! I can't bear to part with you! "Old Master Ruan reached out to Ruan Danchen again.
That action was like Erkang's hand. It made Ruan Danchen suspect that Old Master Ruan often surfed the Internet and kept up with the times.
Ruan Danchen was speechless.
She couldn't be as shameless as the little girl.
In the end, before she could react, Ruan Keshan had already run over to her and cried.
"Dad, Dad, why don't you go in peace? I'll take care of Danchen. It's just that you just came back and want to leave after seeing Danchen. That's too pitiful! Scientific research also needs to be flexible and humane, right? This is making you abandon your family and your career for the development of science! If you leave, will we still see you in the future? Sob sob sob sob! "Ruan Keshan threw himself onto Old Master Ruan's lap and cried.
The Qi family was speechless.
The leader was speechless.
What was going on?
"I … I'm just saying. Don't worry. Tell Professor Ruan not to worry too!" The leader knew that it was Ruan Keshan's voice. He was simply overwhelmed by the father and son duo.
"You see, I can't separate your flesh and blood, can I? If you really don't have time, then don't go. When you come back, I'll ask Xiao Jing to report the contents of the meeting to you. You … you can just stay at home and have a good time with your granddaughter's family. You've always done your best for the development of science in our country. How can we not even give you this little convenience? Don't you think so? "The leader's mouth twitched as he said.
"I think so too." Old Master Ruan smiled so widely that the corners of his mouth were about to reach the sky. There was no sign of the grief and indignation from before.
The leader chuckled. He really didn't have the energy to talk to this old master anymore, so he quickly hung up.
Old Master Ruan hung up the phone. As he put away his phone, he said to the Qi family as if nothing had happened, "Tell me, why did you have to make an old man like me cry? That's really outrageous."
"Hehe." Old Master Qi felt that there were no words to describe this Old Master Ruan. He glanced at Old Madam Qi with an expression that said: News broadcast? This guy?
Old Madam Ruan was so embarrassed that her old face turned red.
Because there were many people, Aunt Liu was afraid that talking would disturb little Youjin, so she first carried little Youjin back to the room to sleep. At this moment, little Youjin woke up. He cried and waved his chubby arms and legs, looking for his mother. Aunt Liu carried him out.
When Old Master Ruan saw this little ball, he was immediately overjoyed. When Song Yu coaxed little Youjin to stop crying, Old Master Ruan quickly asked for him. He couldn't help but pinch his chubby little butt.
However, little Youjin still couldn't speak. He angrily shrunk his little butt and struggled in Old Master Ruan's arms. He looked very pitiful and anxious as he stretched out his hands, begging someone to help him escape from the devil's clutches. Anyone would do!
Seeing how happy and enthusiastic Old Master Ruan was, Song Yu was too embarrassed to save his son. It was Old Madam Ruan who glared at Old Master Ruan and carried little Youjin over.
Feeling that he was out of danger, little Youjin happily stayed in Old Madam Ruan's arms, acting cute.
"Is he thinner than Youxuan when he was young?" Old Master Ruan didn't feel embarrassed at all for bullying a baby. He poked little Youjin's little belly and was kicked angrily by little Youjin, which made him even happier.
"Yes …" Guan Liya admitted with a little guilt, "When Youxuan was brought back by Chenglin, he didn't have a mother. Chenglin was busy with work, so I left him by my side. I was afraid that he would starve … "
Just because Qi Youxuan didn't have a mother to take care of him and Qi Chenglin was so busy, Guan Liya felt that her grandson was too pitiful. She couldn't wait to give him all the good stuff.
She didn't have breast milk, so she fed him milk powder, afraid that he wouldn't be full.
In the end, she accidentally fed little Youjin until he became a white, tender, and chubby little ball.
The little boy looked at little Youjin and suddenly said, "Little brother is too thin now. He needs to get fatter!"
The little boy's plan was very simple. He wanted to feed his brother until he became fat, then let his brother lose weight with him and eat vegetables together. He couldn't let him suffer alone.
Old Madam nodded at the side, "It was fun to be chubby when he was young."
Qi Chengzhi and Song Yu didn't know what to say.
Little Youjin seemed to understand and was very happy. He stretched out his arms towards Old Madam Qi, asking for a hug. When he was in Old Madam Qi's arms, he babbled and drooled. His little hands reached for the strawberries on the table. He waved his short arms but couldn't reach it. He was very anxious.
Old Madam Qi gave him a strawberry. His little claws grabbed the strawberry and kept sucking it. His sweet little mouth cracked open and he was very happy.
Everyone chatted for a while. Looking at the time, Old Madam Qi suggested going to Dynasty.
Seeing that the Ruans didn't have any reaction, as if it was normal, Old Madam Qi heaved a sigh of relief. She felt that the Ruans were very magnanimous. They were indeed scholars.
Qi Chengzhi took little You Jin from Old Madam Qi's arms. Little You Jin's little hand was stained with strawberry juice, and her other hand was smeared on Qi Chengzhi's shirt, leaving a pink strawberry juice stain.
Qi Chengzhi looked at it calmly and said in a low voice, "If you keep doing this, don't even think about eating strawberries."
Little Youjin was shocked. He obediently grabbed the strawberry and didn't dare to let go. He didn't dare to wipe his other hand on Qi Chengzhi's shirt. Instead, he shook his hand back and forth, trying to shake off the strawberry juice.
Then, like a little mole, he chewed on the strawberry.
Old Madam Qi and Old Madam Ruan went out and happened to meet the neighbors who had just finished square dancing and were walking back in groups. There were also people who were dragging their carts back after buying groceries. There were quite a lot of people.
Seeing Old Madam Qi and Old Madam Ruan talking so intimately with a few people following behind them, they couldn't help but be curious.
Just as they were curious, they heard the little fellow running over with his little fat butt. He grabbed Old Madam Ruan's hand and said, "Great-grandma, I'll ride with you."
Act coquettishly so that he could eat more meat at night.
Everyone was shocked. Great-grandma?
Was that Ruan Danchen's maiden family?
Wasn't Ruan Danchen an orphan? When did she have a maiden family?
"This is … Danchen's grandmother?" Auntie Ge looked at Old Madam Ruan in surprise.
"Yes, our Danchen isn't an orphan. She was just separated from her family, but now she has been recognized!" Old Madam Qi said happily. As she spoke, she thought of Old Master Ruan and Old Madam Ruan's identities. They could totally show off!
Hearing her words, Auntie Ge immediately believed it, but some people in the crowd didn't believe it.
Some people thought that maybe the Qi family felt that Ruan Danchen's identity was too weak, so they found someone from somewhere to pretend to be Ruan Danchen's maiden family.
Although this sounded inconceivable to ordinary people, for a big family like this, who knew what they thought? They were used to being different.
At this time, Old Master Ruan also walked over. In front of outsiders, this old master was still very dignified.
That scholarly and indifferent attitude was indeed the same as when he was in the news broadcast.
"This is … Why does this person look so familiar?" Next to Auntie Ge, Auntie Wang also asked. The more she looked at Old Master Ruan, the more familiar he seemed. She felt like she had seen him somewhere before, but she couldn't remember clearly.
Old Madam Qi straightened her back and immediately seized the opportunity to show off. She enthusiastically introduced, "Come, everyone, let's get to know each other. This is my in-law, Danchen's grandfather, Ruan Lichuan. He is an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the one who won the Fields Medal and was on the news broadcast! He was supposed to be in the United States for a meeting now, but he heard that Danchen is the granddaughter they have been looking for, so he came back without saying a word. He just got off the plane today. "
Although Old Madam was not someone who cared about family status, if the other party's family was clean and presentable, who wouldn't be happy?
Just like in the past, when she was worried about Qi Chengzhi and Qi Chenglin's marriage, everyone said that Qi Chengzhi and Qi Chenglin would probably never get married in this lifetime. In the end, Qi Chengzhi suddenly brought Song Yu back.
Old Madam Qi immediately took Song Yu out for a walk, introduced him to everyone, and showed off that her eldest grandson had a wife. Later, Qi Chenglin brought Ruan Danchen back and was taken out for a walk by Old Madam Qi again.
Now that her in-law was so awesome, he was a scientist who was especially respected by people. Old Madam Qi was even more excited and wanted to show off.
After Old Madam Qi said this, Auntie Ge, Auntie Wang, and even the other aunties had some impression of him. At this time, the old men who passed by usually had no other hobbies at home, except to watch the news.
They didn't have any impression of celebrities, but to these high-ranking people, it was like young people getting to know celebrities.
At this moment, with Old Madam Qi's reminder, the old men had already remembered.
Uncle Ge and Uncle Wang decisively pushed away their old wives and squeezed over. Each of them held one of Old Master Ruan's hands, as if they were holding a treasure, and wouldn't let go.
"Hello, Old Master Ruan. It's an honor to meet you," Uncle Ge said.
"I didn't expect that a person from the news broadcast would actually appear in front of me." Uncle Wang was so touched that he was about to cry.
