The strongest counterattack

Qin Sheng quickly took two steps forward, and took the initiative to hold the old man's hand. He could feel the strength of the old man's hand. Although he couldn't remember the stories of his childhood, he could feel the old man's importance to him.

"Dad, let the two children sit down and talk." The middle-aged man on the left below smiled and smoothed things over, because he was afraid that the old man would be too excited.

Only then did the old man come back to his senses and said, "I'm so happy, Xiao He, quickly bring a chair and let the children sit next to me, and I'll have a good chat with them"

Xiao He is naturally the secretary Qin Ran called Uncle He, he smiled and nodded and took two chairs from behind, the young man got up and took one of them and brought it over, when he walked to Qin Ran, Said in a voice that only they could hear, "Is your brother nothing more than that?"

Qin Ran's eyes were very displeased when he heard this sentence. When he took the chair, he stepped on the man's toe without hesitation while no one was paying attention. The man almost cried out in pain. When he wanted to question, Qin Ran was already chatting with the old man, so he had no choice but to suffer from this dull loss.

"Have you met your grandma?" The old man asked casually after Qin Ran and Qin Sheng sat down. He and the old lady of the Zhu family were very close. After all, they had been friends for many years, but the old lady lived in the In Shanghai, I seldom go back to Beijing, so I haven't seen her for a few days. After all, the old lady was born in a rich family in Shanghai and is used to life in Shanghai.

Qin Ran smiled and replied, "Go back to Grandpa Song, not yet. My brother and I are planning to go to Shanghai again in the third year of junior high. Grandma doesn't know that my brother is back yet."

"Oh, then you have hidden it deep enough. The old lady doesn't even know about it now. But if she knows, she will be very happy. I remember that every time I passed by, the old lady praised Qin Sheng a lot. "The old man said with a smile from ear to ear.

Qin Ran glanced at Qin Sheng and nodded with a smile, "Grandpa Song is right, grandma loves him the most."

At this time, the old man seemed to think of something, squinted his eyes at the middle-aged man on the right and said, "Xingwen, why didn't you see Yu'er? Wasn't he still here just now?"

The face of the middle-aged man changed slightly, what was supposed to come was coming after all, so he told the young man below, "He Sheng, go and call Yu'er over here"

Song Hesheng nodded, looked at Qin Sheng not far away again, got up thoughtfully and walked out of the living room.Except when he was a child, this was also the first time he saw Qin Sheng. For some reason, he had a natural resistance to this man. Maybe it was because of the marriage. He felt that no one was worthy of his cousin. This also includes the man in front of him.

However, he was no stranger to Qin Ran. After all, they almost got together. It was a pity that some people got in the way. Maybe it was because of the lack of fate, so that friends in the circle still joked about it.

Just when Song Hesheng was about to open the door to go out, the door of the living room was pushed open from the outside, and only a woman's clear voice was heard, "Grandpa, I'm here."

Qin Sheng looked at this woman subconsciously, and lost his mind for a moment. He didn't expect there to be such a temperamental woman in the world. Who is she?

Chapter 395 A Blind Date

The Song family has kept a low profile for so many years, mainly because the old man's family education is very strict.Just like the phrase in Yan's family motto, "Born in troubled times, growing up in the army, wandering in Boyue, seeing a lot of people", the life of the old man is like this, born in that precarious age, growing up in the ruthless war years of life and death, and finally from the dead Climbing out of the pile, living at the height of the temple, witnessing the process of this country and nation from troubled times to prosperous times.

The old man cultivated his moral character, cultivated his character, and made his family peaceful. He never dared to be negligent, because he often thought about why he was able to live, while those comrades, brothers and friends died in troubled times.He dare not attribute his current status to his own hard work. Thousands of people have fought for it with their deaths, so he strictly demands himself and his descendants. If the family's achievement seeks the slightest benefit, it will be exchanged for his scolding and reprimand.

So the second generation of the Song family was very ordinary and didn't have any great achievements. They basically worked in the Qingshui Yamen, but in the third generation, there were two outstanding younger generations.

One is Song Hesheng who is sitting below. He is highly expected by many people, and he is one of the core figures among the young people in the Forty-Nine City. After graduating from graduate school, he entered the grassroots and began to exercise. , all spoke highly of him, and he was willing to do practical things, and there was nothing to say about his life. Now he is a deputy director-level of the real power department, and his future is limitless.

The other is this woman who just opened the door. She is the youngest granddaughter of Mr. Song and also Song Hesheng's cousin. How do many people evaluate her?Just like her name, Song Ruyu, she said that she was a gentleman, as gentle as jade.

If you use a gentleman to describe a woman, you will know that this woman is not simple, she is a strange woman in the world, and she is also a clean stream in this impetuous society.

At this moment, Qin Sheng didn't know who this woman was, but was attracted by her aura. He didn't know how to describe the aura of this woman in front of him, just like when you meet a stranger, you can tell at a glance that she must be a good person .

The woman is very beautiful, not inferior to his elder sister, but Qin Sheng feels that it is an insult to the woman to pay attention to the woman's appearance at this moment, because her temperament has already covered up her beauty.

She tied her hair casually with the most common black hair tie, didn't wear any makeup, and was dressed very simply, gray sweater and light-colored coat, whitish jeans, and a pair of black cloth shoes that surprised Qin Sheng.Qin Sheng loved to wear this kind of cloth shoes when he was a child. They were not the old Beijing cloth shoes bought outside, but the layered soles made by the aunts and aunts in the village. They were very comfortable and practical, but they never wore them again these years. That's why Qin Sheng lost his mind when he saw the woman in front of him wearing black cloth shoes.

This woman gives people a simple feeling, but makes people feel particularly comfortable and sunny, especially those black eyes, which are so clean that Qin Sheng feels ashamed. Qin Sheng can't help but think of that sentence, some people's hearts are like flowers and trees , are born facing the sun.

"Yu'er, did you go to the study again?" The old man's eyes were full of kindness when he saw his granddaughter.Yu'er is the youngest of all his grandchildren, but she is also the one he is most satisfied with and admires the most.The old man sometimes thinks about it, did the old man of the Qin family have already broken the secret to make such a joke with him?

Song Ruyu pursed her lips and smiled, not showing her teeth, but her eyes were full of smiles, like the warm sun outside, which made people very kind.

"Sister Ran, long time no see, you look a bit haggard." Song Ruyu walked in front of Qin Ran and Qin Sheng and said with a smile. Her footsteps were light, like a spring breeze. Wherever she walked, the vegetation was full of glory.

Qin Ran liked this woman from the Song family very much. She was used to seeing all kinds of women, but Song Ruyu was the only woman like her. Her personality seemed to be incompatible with this secular world, but she used her unique method to integrate into it. , Qin Ran couldn't help thinking that it might not be a good thing for such a woman to marry into the Qin family.

Qin Ran didn't know why, every time she saw Song Ruyu, she would feel ashamed of herself, she smiled faintly, "Ruyu, my sister is haggard, but you are getting more and more beautiful."

Song Ruyu lowered her head slightly and said in embarrassment, "My sister is joking again."

She actually doesn't like people saying she is beautiful, especially strange men, but she is relatively familiar with Qin Ran, so she is not angry.

"Yu'er, do you still know who he is?" Mr. Song pointed at Qin Sheng and said indifferently. The two children met several times when they were young, but those memories are a little far away, and I'm afraid I can't remember them.

Song Ruyu didn't know who came to pay New Year's greetings today. After all, there were quite a few people who came to pay New Year's greetings every year, but she was not here most of the time, but she knew that Uncle Qin would bring Sister Ran to pay New Year's greetings every morning. Second-rate.

However, what puzzled her this year was why grandpa asked them to come over so early in the morning on the first day of junior high school, thinking that there were some distinguished guests, but she hadn't seen them until now.Of course, she didn't think that elder sister Ran and this man would be the distinguished guests that grandpa valued so much, and the only ones who could be valued by grandpa were those leaders or old friends.

Song Ruyu first smiled and nodded at Qin Sheng, and did not directly look at Qin Sheng in a rude manner, and then looked at Qin Sheng with a slight frown. The time was neither too long nor too short, so Qin Sheng didn't feel disgusted, and he didn't feel disgusted. belittled.From these bits and pieces, one can see Song Ruyu's character.

Afterwards, Song Ruyu looked at his grandfather, smiled and shook his head and responded, "Grandpa, I really didn't recognize him. I'm afraid I haven't seen him for many years, otherwise I wouldn't have no impression."

The old man squinted his eyes and laughed, before explaining to his granddaughter, "Hahaha, you can't even recognize me, Yu'er, of course you can't recognize me. If you count it, I haven't seen it for 22 years, right? It’s the naughty ghost who brought you candied haws every time he came when he was a child.”

Originally, Song Ruyu looked very calm, but after hearing what Grandpa said, she lost her mind for a moment and murmured, "Qin Sheng?"

The old man has already done what he should do, and the other things are left to the two children to reminisce about the past, so he said, "Yu'er, take Qin Sheng around the yard, Grandpa still has something to ask you, Sister Ran."

Although Song Ruyu hadn't recovered yet, she still nodded and said softly, "Yes."

When she turned around, Song Ruyu still couldn't help but look at Qin Sheng. After more than 20 years, she never expected to see Qin Sheng again. She heard grandpa and the others talk about the past of the Qin family before, and knew that the old man always laughed. The child who pursed his lips had already disappeared, and he has not been found so far, but he did not expect to see him today.

Qin Sheng glanced at Qin Ran, then smiled at Grandpa Song, nodded to the others, and followed Song Ruyu out of the courtyard.

In the yard, the sun was just right, and the flowers, plants and trees were stretching their muscles and enjoying the rare sunshine.

Song Ruyu, who was walking in front, happened to be standing under a tree, and the light shone on her body through the gaps in the trees, making Qin Sheng feel like a dream, as if he had seen her somewhere, and of course it wasn't something that happened when he was a child , after all, he had already forgotten.

"I didn't expect to see you again." Song Ruyu turned to look at Qin Sheng, and smiled a little embarrassedly, "I only remember you when you were a child, I really can't recognize you now."

Qin Sheng didn't know why Grandpa Song asked him to come out with the woman in front of him. Although according to Grandpa Song, they knew each other when they were young, but Qin Sheng had already forgotten about the things when they were young. He really didn't know what to talk about with the woman. And for some reason, he didn't have the slightest confidence in front of women.

"I almost forgot everything when I was a child. I can only remember my mother. I can't even recognize my sister. I didn't expect life to be so magical." Qin Sheng smiled wryly, he didn't want to talk about those things in the past , have passed, and there is no right or wrong.

Song Ruyu could feel the sadness in Qin Sheng's words, and the emphasis was on her mother. She knew that Aunt Zhu had passed away when Qin Sheng was young, and wanted to comfort Qin Sheng, but she didn't know what to say. Hypocrisy and politeness, so I kept silent.

"You know my name is Qin Sheng, but I don't know what your name is." Qin Sheng heard Grandpa Song calling Yu'er, he couldn't call Yu'er, so he took the initiative to ask.

Song Ruyu said lightly, "Song Ruyu"

"Fleeing away, scorching its brilliance, a gentleman is like jade, noble and elegant. A humble gentleman is as gentle as jade. A gentleman is like jade, as sharp as a cut. Is that like jade?" Qin Sheng was very fond of the name when he heard the name, but followed closely Said, "I'm not trying to show off my knowledge, I just said it subconsciously"

Qin Sheng's cautiousness made Song Ruyu laugh and said, "It's Ruyu, but I'm not that sensitive."

"Good name" Qin Sheng couldn't help but said, he didn't think this name was inappropriate, no matter if it was a man or a woman, it was suitable for such a name.Confucianism pays attention to the mean, worships the gentleman, and takes the word Ruyu to correct its original meaning.

When Qin Sheng was talking, Song Ruyu was still looking at Qin Sheng calmly, especially when Qin Sheng was talking, she kept staring into Qin Sheng's eyes, what did she want to see?

She has recovered from the initial loss of consciousness and surprise. In fact, when she guessed Qin Sheng's name, she already knew why grandpa asked them to come so early today. Obviously, everyone else should already know the reason, but they just kept it from her. That's all.

Everyone thought she didn't know about the history of the Song and Qin families, but she already knew about it a long time ago. It was because her grandma, who had passed away for many years, made a slip of the tongue. At that time, she just thought it was interesting, but she didn't take it back. What's more, she knew that the man from the Qin family had been missing for many years, but she never thought that the Qin family would find him, let alone see him today.

Therefore, today's deliberately arranged meeting is actually just a disguised blind date for her or him.

Chapter 396 Let's Talk About It

The door carved with patterns in the main hall has been closed by Secretary He at this time, so the people inside can't see Qin Sheng and Song Ruyu outside, which saves too much pressure on these two children, let them get in touch with each other slowly. Reminiscing about the past.

Mr. Song is not worried that the two children will be embarrassed in the cold, let alone that he is very confident in his granddaughter's ability to get along with others. The most important thing is that he was also a little friend who played together back then, and there were more or less topics to talk about. Besides, Qin Sheng didn't look so dull either.

"Ran Ran, you are satisfied with our Yu'er, please don't bully our Yu'er in the future, your sister." Mr. Song joked on purpose. After hearing these words, the men below couldn't help but thump in their hearts. The old man is determined to marry Yu'er to the Qin family, and he doesn't ask their opinions, let alone whether Yu'er is willing.

Qin Ran was also stunned. She didn't expect Grandpa Song to be so direct, which made her not know how to answer. After all, she didn't dare to agree casually. Qin Sheng's real girlfriend was Lin Su, even though she was very satisfied with Song Ruyu.

"Grandpa Song, I think it depends on their mutual attitudes, we can't force it," Qin Ran could only say tactfully.

Mr. Song said with a cheerful smile, "Your grandfather and I ordered this matter at the beginning, and it was also for the further improvement of our two families' relationship and the friendship between Qin and Jin. Originally, we wanted to match you and He Sheng, but who knew that the two of you One is Huanxi's lover. Now I'm watching Qin Sheng and Ruyu. Although I didn't see Qin Sheng again after more than 20 years, I am quite satisfied with this child. I think I am quite accurate in judging people. After all, it is your grandfather holding hands Taught it. As for Yu’er, I will communicate with her well, of course both children need to nod, I’m not that old and stubborn.”

Qin Ran murmured in his heart, so he could only smile and said, "Grandpa Song said yes, I'm afraid that Ruyu is too good, and our Qin Sheng won't be good enough."

"You don't need to worry about this. Although Yu'er's eyes are higher than the top, girls are going to marry after all." Mr. Song said with a smile. He is in charge of all matters of the Song family, and these juniors dare not disobey him at all. , not to mention that he still knows his granddaughter well, and he believes that this matter is sure.

Qin Ran didn't dare to say anything more, for fear that Mr. Song would be disgusted if he said too much, or the rest of the Song family would be angry.The men of the Song family below all sighed in their hearts. If the old man really wants to force it, with Ruyu's character of wanting nothing, he may directly agree. After all, Ruyu has always listened to the old man, not to mention that he has no one he likes so far. .

Song Hesheng felt even more uncomfortable, but what can he do if he was born in such a family?He once asked Ruyu in private about her views on marriage, and Ruyu's answer shocked him, and sometimes he had to sigh that it's not good for a woman to be too good.

In the courtyard outside, Qin Sheng and Song Ruyu didn't know what happened inside. Song Ruyu had already guessed it, but Qin Sheng was still kept in the dark.But this is also good, at least Qin Sheng and Song Ruyu will not be too conflicted when chatting, otherwise it will make the Song family unhappy.

"So, you've been in Xi'an these years. I've been there a few times. I like the Beilin Museum the most, and I often recommend it to my friends. Unfortunately, most people only like that kind of lively place, but they don't like this kind of truly cultural place. Where is the background?" Song Ruyu asked after learning that Qin Sheng had been living in Xi'an, and said with some surprise, just a little curious, why the Qin family didn't find him for so many years?

Qin Sheng did not expect that the woman in front of him actually liked the Beilin Museum, which made him have a good impression of Song Ruyu. At least such a woman has connotations, but thinking about it, how could a woman with such a temperament have no connotations, and how could she be outside? Those vulgar rouge vulgar fans.What's more, her name is Song Ruyu, and the stone carvings of the Four Books and Five Classics in the Forest of Steles Museum are very shocking.

Qin Sheng laughed and said, "I didn't expect you to like the Beilin Museum. I also like it the most. When I was a child, my grandfather would throw it there during the winter and summer vacations. I would practice calligraphy and copy famous posters."

"Really?" Song Ruyu was also pleasantly surprised by Qin Sheng's answer, and she immediately said, "Then your calligraphy must be very good?"

Qin Sheng said modestly, "Hahaha, it's still a bit worse than my grandfather, but my sister said I was bragging and never believed it."

Song Ruyu smiled slightly, "I believe you, because I can smell the faint smell of pen and ink on your body."

But after finishing speaking, Song Ruyu felt that the words were a bit strange, and she lowered her head in embarrassment and quickly changed the subject, "I like the Monk Huairen's collection of Wang Xizhi's "The Preface to the Tripitaka of the Tang Dynasty" in the Forest of Steles Museum the most."

"Oh, I like Yan Zhenqing's "Yanjiamiao Monument". It is his work after he mastered calligraphy. Compared with the Duobao Pagoda Monument that he got up earlier, it is more amazing." Qin Sheng said with great interest, "Everyone knows that Wang Xizhi is the number one in the world. One line script "Preface to the Collection of Lanting", but I don't know Yan Zhenqing's second running script "Manuscript for Sacrifice to My Nephew". The two are called double walls of running script. "Manuscript" is collectively known as the "Three Drafts of Yan Shu"

Song Ruyu knows all this knowledge, she has a deep study of Chinese classical culture, and her calligraphy is not low, but when Qin Sheng said this, she still listened quietly, and at the same time admired Qin Sheng quite a bit Not everyone knows this.

"It seems that you like Yan Zhenqing," Song Ruyu said thoughtfully.

Qin Sheng didn't deny it and said with a smile, "Well, I really like him very much, my running script is just biased towards it"

Song Ruyu hesitated for a moment and said, "If you have time, can you give me a copy of the "Manuscript for the Memorial to My Nephew"? I may be a bit abrupt, don't mind, I just want to like it"

Qin Sheng happily said, "Hahaha, it's okay, then I will try to give it to you as soon as possible, but I am afraid that the copying will not be good, and you will laugh at me."

"I believe in your strength" Song Ruyu said with a smile.

At this time, a young man's piercing voice said, "Whose dude is flirting with my little aunt again? I'd better advise you to give up on this, my aunt doesn't think much of you."

Qin Sheng subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound, which was also in the direction of the door. He saw a middle-aged couple walking slowly with a child under 20 years old. The young child looked very arrogant and dressed very trendy. Full of disdain.

"Song Shigui, don't be rude, can you be a little polite?" Song Ruyu lectured very bluntly, and then said to the middle-aged couple behind him, "Brother, sister-in-law, you are here."

"Is the old man in there?" the middle-aged couple asked, and at the same time quietly looked at Qin Sheng. Whose family son is actually able to chat and laugh with Ruyu.

Song Ruyu replied in a low voice, "It's inside."

A middle-aged man in a down jacket walked towards Qin Sheng and said, "I'm sorry, this kid is so rude, I made you laugh."

Qin Sheng smiled and nodded at the middle-aged man, but didn't say much.

It was not easy for Song Ruyu to continue chatting with Qin Sheng at this time, and she took her brother, sister-in-law and this little nephew to the main hall.

Qin Sheng walked at the back, and the boy named Song Shigui threatened in a low voice, "I advise you not to think about my little aunt, and give up on it as soon as possible. If you dare to harass her, I will definitely make you look good."

Qin Sheng wasn't used to this kind of lawless brat, so he snorted coldly, "Could it be that you have an affair with an aunt?"

Hearing this sentence, the boy didn't know whether the secret was leaked or what. He became angry instantly, and punched Qin Sheng. Qin Sheng grabbed his wrist without hesitation, and secretly said, "It's just because of you!" The level of the three-legged cat also wants to beat me, I am afraid that even ten of you may not be my opponent, if it is not here, I will send you to the hospital a long time ago."

Qin Sheng's strength was not small. The boy grinned his teeth in pain, and almost screamed. At this moment, Song Ruyu just pushed open the door of the main hall, and Qin Sheng let go in a timely manner, while keeping a distance from the boy.The boy dared not speak out, and he didn't dare to act recklessly at this time, because he knew his grandfather's temper, and if he was not sure, he would be beaten up, and he could only suffer from this dull loss.

Song Ruyu pushed open the door and said, "Grandpa, brother and sister-in-law are here."

Qin Ran, who was chatting inside, saw a visitor from the Song family, and stood up with a smile, "Grandpa Song, then we won't bother you, we'll go back first, and I'll come to see you another day."

Old Master Song didn't ask to stay either, knowing that the Qin family obviously had other arrangements, he said directly, "That's fine, Ran Ran, Grandpa won't keep you guys anymore, let Xiao He send you out on my behalf."

Qin Ran walked towards Qin Sheng, greeted the rest of the Song family with Qin Sheng, then left the Song family, and Secretary He sent them out.When Qin Sheng turned around, Song Ruyu smiled faintly at him. Song Hesheng noticed this detail and could only sigh in his heart.

After Qin Ran went out and got into the car, he casually asked, "How do you feel about Song Ruyu?"

Qin Sheng didn't know the deeper meaning of his sister's words, but he was a little puzzled, but he still replied, "Well, how should I put it, it feels very strange. Her temperament is very special. If you describe it, it is like her name. Jade"

Qin Ran chuckled and said, "Hahaha, then you don't know how many men in Sijiu City wanted to marry Song Ruyu, and how many people Grandpa Song pushed? Those who can speak to Grandpa Song are not simple people. This Song Ruyu What's more, her eyes are higher than the top, and she has never taken a fancy to anyone, but I also think that no man can be worthy of him, and when you get to know her better, you will know that this woman is not simple."

Qin Sheng didn't answer the question, he couldn't say that I don't marry him as a wife, so what does it have to do with me?I'm afraid I'll see you this time, and I don't know when I'll see you again.If he really said that, Qin Ran would probably drop his jaw in shock if Qin Ran replied that you and her had a marriage contract between the fingertips.

After Qin Ran and Qin Sheng returned to the courtyard of the Qin family, Qin Changan didn't ask how things were going in the Song family, and Qin Ran would definitely report to him later, and immediately arranged for Qin Ran to take Qin Sheng to the next house.

At this moment in the Song family, Mr. Song has returned to the study from the main hall. The three men of the Song family were called in. Song Ruyu was in the main hall with her brother and sister-in-law, but her mind was in the study. She was smart and naturally guessed that Grandpa Why did you call uncle, father, and elder brother to the study.

In the study room, Mr. Song was sitting on the grand teacher's chair, looked at his son and grandson below, and said lightly, "Man, you also met, let's talk about it."

Chapter 397 The sky is about to change

Qin Sheng and Song Ruyu were about the same age, and it happened that the daughters-in-law of the Song and Qin families were both pregnant, and the two old men made the marriage contract half-jokingly while chatting.

I remember that it was an autumn afternoon, and the two old people took the time to visit Xiangshan together. After all, the red leaves of Xiangshan are an indispensable scenic spot in autumn in Sijiu City.At that time, the Forty-Nine City was not as large as it is today. Standing on the top of Xiangshan Mountain, you can clearly see the Forbidden City, which is not completely blocked by smog like today.

Mr. Song was the first to talk about this topic, and asked with a smile, "Old Qin, the one in your family is about to give birth, right? Are you a boy or a girl?"

Mr. Qin shook his head and smiled, "The incense of our Qin family has not been broken so far, so you don't need to count to know, but your family may be a girl."

Mr. Song was a little unconvinced and said, "Yo, then I really don't believe it. Let's make a bet. I think your family is still a daughter, and our family is still a son."

"Just bet, I've never lost any bets." Mr. Qin said confidently, "However, what is the bet, I have to hear whether it is worth it or not."

Mr. Song laughed and said, "You have the final say."

"Then bet, if our family is a daughter and your family is a son, similarly our family is a son and your family is a daughter, our two families will become good friends of Qin and Jin. If both are sons or both are daughters, then we should be Nothing happened, how?" Mr. Qin said with a faint smile.
