After lunch, Xiao Yu's grandmother realized how unrealistic it was for her to be able to go back with her children.
Xiao Yu drove Chen Weilai's antique car with his grandmother and Ceng Zhao in it. Ceng Zhao's words were true: freedom, no one would care where they went. Liu Yi's trip was not that simple. That night, she could only stay at the Shin Myung Province Office's Villa 1. She could not stay at the Old Liu Village, so she could only go to Gu Yi City's Longshan the next morning and return in the afternoon.
Xiao Yu brought his grandmother and Ceng Zhao back to Gu Yi City. Ruan Lei saw that Liu Yi was pitiful and asked Ou Jie to bring the children home while she accompanied Liu Yi to the Office to chat and pass the time.
The Shin Myung Province Office was the former ASEAN Embassy District. Shin Myung Province merged the several countries in the Indo-China Peninsula into one, and the land of the Indo-China Peninsula countries were all under the name of Shin Myung Province. The environment here was beautiful, the trees were green, and the winding paths were secluded. After the park was reorganized, it became a small district in Shin Myung Province. There was a commercial district that sold Shin Myung Province products, a large restaurant that sold food from Shin Myung Province, Shin Myung Province Tourism Reception Office, and Shin Myung Province Business Negotiation Office. Of course, the garden within the garden was the administrative area, and the center was the reception area. Villa 1 was always reserved for the king.
"Little Yi, now you know that being a queen is not free! You can't even go home. "Ruan Lei laughed and joked.
"Until now, I still can't find the feeling of being a queen." Liu Yi said with a smile: "I asked Weizheng, and he also can't find the feeling of being a king."
"That can't be! A majestic king, revered by tens of thousands of people, with a stomp of his feet, the earth moves. " Ruan Lei said, "When I think of this position, it makes me think of Qin Huang, Han Wu, Tang Zong, Song Zu. In history, the most powerful people were all kings."
"I don't know about others, but I know that people like Weizheng and I are not suitable to be kings and queens. Every day, our country is expanding day by day, our national strength is increasing day by day, our economy is developing day by day, and our society is progressing day by day. However, I don't feel any changes in my life. I still have three meals a day. Breakfast is still porridge and rice noodles, lunch is still three dishes and one soup, and dinner is still on a diet to lose weight. I can't eat meat, can't eat rice, eat more vegetables and drink more water. My clothes aren't any better. My clothes are definitely not as expensive as yours. There's no freedom to go out and play, and there's a fixed amount of food to eat. So far, I haven't found any substantial benefits of being a queen admired by thousands of people. "Liu Yi said with a stomach full of dissatisfaction. Ruan Lei rolled into a ball with laughter.
Ruan Lei's progress in the past few years could be considered rapid. In May, she had already been appointed as the head of the youth department of the Red River Provincial Committee. Her job was very comfortable, and her future was bright. When she asked Liu Yi what else he did in Longshan other than being a boring queen, Liu Yi told her that in Longshan City, the most important thing was to return to his old profession, which was to be an outpatient doctor at the Royal Hospital of Longshan.
The Royal Hospital of Longshan was becoming more and more limited because the fees were more expensive. Those who could be treated here were either rich or noble, the leaders of various countries, their family members, or the bosses of large enterprises. Liu Yi originally wanted to make it a public hospital, but because too many people came every day, there was no way to guarantee the quality of the treatment. Helpless, he could only use economic leverage to exclude those who were not financially able to afford it. He also ensured that the number of patients was appropriate and stimulated the people to work hard, so that his economic income could reach the level where he could treat patients.
"My energy is limited, and I really can't provide services to so many people. Moreover, aristocratic hospitals have good income and high efficiency. If the best doctors in the country are gathered together, many difficult problems can be solved at the same time. Especially every time Grandpa Liu goes to see patients, every black market in Longshan City sells a consultation card for ten thousand yuan. He sees twenty patients a day, but Grandpa Liu doesn't know that there are twenty thousand people waiting outside, "Liu Yi said.
"How many times does Grandpa Liu go a year?" Ruan Lei asked.
"Three to four times, every time for three to five days. He likes Xiao Zhu very much. He even told Xiao Zhu that when Xiao Zhu gives birth, he and Grandma Liu will live in Shin Myung Province for a long time. "Liu Yi thought of Grandpa Liu's childish expression when he said this and couldn't help but laugh.
"I haven't been in touch with my profession for a long time. Last year, when I went to the Central League School to study, I knew that in this life, I would never have the opportunity to use a stethoscope again!" Ruan Lei thought of this and felt a little regretful.
"When you have nothing to do at home, you still have the opportunity to use a stethoscope when you help the elderly take their blood pressure!" Liu Yi said.
Ruan Lei smiled. Perhaps this was the last time he showed his professionalism.
Xiao Yu drove slowly. When they got off the highway in Longshan, he said to Ceng Zhao, "It seems that it's necessary to get a domestic driver's license. Otherwise, you'll be driving without a license."
Ceng Zhao smiled. "As long as you know how to drive! I have a cousin in Tan City, the son of my aunt. He drives a taxi for a living. He drove for six years before he got a driver's license. Anyway, the police are all electronic now, so they rarely go on the road. They only check for speeding and occupying the road, not for driving without a license. "
"How do you know?" Liu Yu asked.
"I heard from my cousin that he's a very good person. It's just that he drives without a license. Every Saturday, he comes to Tan City Middle School to pick us up. On Sunday afternoon, he sends us back to school together. During the three years of high school, he never stopped. He said that it's impossible for him to go to college. Being able to pick up prospective college students, he'll be able to fulfill his college dream! "Ceng Zhao said with respect when she talked about this cousin.
Liu Yu also felt respect for him from the bottom of his heart. It was a very simple thing. As long as you persevered, you could create miracles.
When they passed by the ruins of Longshan, Ceng Zhao got out of the car and bought two pieces of water tofu and ten or so string peppers. Grandma looked at Ceng Zhao with interest. This was really a girl who could manage the household. She could take the initiative to plan the dishes for dinner, which showed that she knew the situation at home very well and had a kind of housekeeping responsibility. She only bought very simple tofu and string peppers. It seemed that she already had a plan for dinner. Grandma was full of expectations for dinner.
After getting out of the car and putting grandma's luggage in the room, Ceng Zhao looked at the time. It was already half past five. She went to the kitchen to cook. Cooking was very simple. The rice cooker in the countryside was very popular. She washed the rice, plugged in the electricity, and then left the work to time. She began to prepare the dishes. She went to the back garden and picked a handful of cabbage and a few chives. She washed them and took out some fish slices left from the banquet a few days ago from the refrigerator. She was going to make a tofu and fish slices soup. She sprinkled chives, and the milky white soup was dotted with green onions. The fragrance was overwhelming. She cut the string peppers into small pieces, add the diced eggplant and minced meat, and stir-fried them into a plate. She added a cold cabbage, two dishes and a soup.
It was a typical rich farm life. Three people were enough. Grandma was very satisfied. The old lady in the countryside liked this kind of diligent and careful girl who knew how to live.
After the meal, Ceng Zhao made a cup of tea for grandma. Then, she asked Liu Yu to send her back.
Grandma sent Ceng Zhao out and told Ceng Zhao that tomorrow she would personally visit Ceng Zhao's mother, grandfather, and uncle to propose marriage. Tomorrow, Liu Yi would also return to Chen Village. At that time, Liu Yi would also visit Ceng Zhao to propose marriage. If Ceng Zhao was willing, she would let Lan Shigao come over tomorrow to fulfill his role as the matchmaker. Ceng Zhao was a little embarrassed before, but when she heard the last sentence, she couldn't help but laugh. She glanced at her grandma and said, "Director Lan is so busy. How can she have time to come?"
Xiao Yu said, "You don't have to worry about this. When sister returns to Chen Village in Longshan, someone from the Red River will definitely accompany her. As long as sister asks for Lan Shigao to accompany her, he will definitely come."
Ceng Zhao thought about it and agreed. This sister had a powerful background. Then, she thought about it again. If her cousin, the king, came back, who would accompany him?
Xiao Yu sent Ceng Zhao back to Chen Village with the gift that Grandma brought for Ceng Zhao's mother. Grandma looked at the two figures leaving side by side and smiled sincerely. What a perfect pair. They were really talented and beautiful. It was rare to see such a sensible girl who was also a native of the village. It was hard to find one even with a lantern in hand. Ever since Xiao Yu went to England, Grandma was most worried that Xiao Yu would find her a ghost girl with blue eyes and yellow hair. When she saw Ceng Zhao, Grandma was finally relieved.
Hearing Grandma's call, Liu Yi felt that it would be a good thing if this problem could be solved tomorrow. She was very satisfied with Ceng Zhao and thought that she was a good match for Xiao Yu.
Liu Yi specially called Lan Shigao and asked him to go to Longshan with her tomorrow to fulfill his role as the matchmaker. Lan Shigao was overjoyed. He said that he had originally arranged for Zhang Zhi and his wife to accompany Liu Yi back to Chen Village in Longshan. This time, he had an excuse to go with her!
After informing Lan Shigao, Liu Yi called Chen Weizheng and told him what Grandma thought of Ceng Zhao. She also told Chen Weizheng that she would go to Chen Village tomorrow to ask for Nineteen's hand in marriage. Lan Shigao went to be the matchmaker, and Zhang Zhi and his wife accompanied her home as the government escorts.
Chen Weizheng said that he would also go back tomorrow. He would use someone else's passport to take the flight to Tan City at six o 'clock in the morning. Then he would take a taxi back from Tan City. Liu Yi asked him why he didn't ask someone to drive an air sports car directly to Longshan Chen Village. Chen Weizheng said that it was impossible. If they entered the country without permission, it would be terrible if they were attacked by China's border guards!
After sending Ceng Zhao back, Grandma asked Liu Yu how he felt about this girl. Liu Yu smiled and told Grandma that this was the love of his life. Liu Yu, who was jumping around happily, hummed a song all the way at home. He was busy washing the stove and then the toilet.
At seven o 'clock in the morning, Lan Shigao's car arrived at the office of Shin Myung Province. Liu Yi and Ruan Lei had just woken up and were having breakfast in the dining room. The breakfast was Liu Yi's favorite braised vegetable noodles and Ruan Lei's favorite chicken noodles. As soon as Lan Shigao entered the door, Ruan Lei served Lan Shigao a bowl of millet porridge. Lan Shigao didn't refuse and sat down to eat. Just as he started to eat, Zhang Zhi's voice came from behind, "If I had known that there was such a good breakfast, I wouldn't have eaten raw rice outside."
"Dad, you dare to eat raw rice outside?" Liu Yi asked.
"Why wouldn't I dare? On the streets now, there are very few people who know me. Sitting at the rice noodle stall, I'm just an ordinary little old man. I'm already used to it. I don't think of myself as a special person. " Zhang Zhi said casually, "I went for a walk by the lake in the morning and bought breakfast on the way back. My biggest wish now is that my days pass quickly and I retire early. Then I'll go to Shin Myung Province and send my grandson to school every day. Then I'll let Xian Hua step on my back. That feeling is really comfortable."
Liu Yi said, "I'll call Mo Jiao immediately and ask her to bring the children back. When we go to Longshan Chen Village later, Xian Hua will step on your back. "
"Hahahaha, don't worry. If I miss them, I'll ask for leave from the leader and go to Shin Myung Province to visit family." Zhang Zhi pointed at Lan Shigao and said, "With such a good leader, I'm not afraid that he won't approve my leave!"
"Okay, okay, okay. I'll approve any leave. How about it? If there are no problems, we'll leave!" Lan Shigao suggested.
