Living and working in peace and contentment through the past and the present

The next day, Fan Qiyou took Ruan Li to the Municipal Painting and Calligraphy Association, and recommended Ruan Li to join the Municipal Painting and Calligraphy Association.After the formalities were completed, Ruan Li still felt unreal.

"Old Fan, thank you very much." Ruan Li thanked him sincerely.

"You're welcome, I've made this plan a long time ago, and I just happen to be free today." Old Fan smiled, walking in front with his hands behind his back.He said earnestly, "Xiao Ruan, our country is not as open as foreign countries. You and Xiao An are good boys, but you need to be careful outside."

This is the first time that Ruan Li has encountered someone who has expressed opinions on his and An Zhuo's affairs.Ruan Li walked behind Fan Qi right and frowned in thought.He knew that Fan Qiyou was doing it for his own good, and he treated him as one of his own, even though he thought so, he still felt uncomfortable in his heart.

"What Fan Lao said is true, but I don't care about other people's opinions. An Zhuo and I come from a small place. After experiencing many things, we think about many things clearly. I think it's good for me to live comfortably. What do you think, Mr. Fan?"

Fan Qiyou thought for a moment, then smiled, "It seems that I haven't lived as thoroughly as you for so many years, so I'm talking too much." Then, Fan Qiyou took out two small boxes from his pocket and handed them to Ruan. Li, "This is a gift for the two children."

Ruan Li took the gift and thanked her.

After returning home, Ruan Li and An Zhuo opened the gift and found a pair of fine jade pendants, engraved with the names that Ling Zhiyuan had just given to the two children yesterday. An Zhuo took one and rubbed it in his hand, saying, "Mr. Fan is a good man. He must have spent a lot of time engraving this last night."

"He is indeed a good man." Ruan Li replied with a smile, took out another piece of jade and tied it around the neck of the eldest brother, and An Zhuo also tied the jade stone in his hand around the neck of the second child, "Say, do we want to return the gift?"

"We'll talk about it when we have a chance." Ruan Li thought for a while, Fan Qiyou probably wouldn't accept the gift in return.

The following days passed unhurriedly, the child was full moon, and An Zhuo learned oil painting from Yu Chi again. Half a month later, Ling Zhiyuan invited Ruan Li and An Zhuo to take the child to his house, and ordered that by the way Call Yu Chi also.Ruan Li accepted the appointment and took the whole family there on a sunny day.

As soon as they arrived at Ling's house, Ling Yun came out to greet her. Seeing that Ruan Li and An Zhuo were holding a child each, she teased the child and asked with a smile, "Whose family's child is so cute?"

"My family." An Zhuo and Ruan Li said in unison.Ling Yun chuckled, "Stop teasing, we haven't seen each other for half a year, and the baby is born?"

Ruan Li and An Zhuo just smiled.At this time, the large army arrived in the living room. Ling Zhiyuan saw that he was coming, and immediately came to pick up the two children, one on the left and the other on the right. Judging by his appearance, he actually liked him very much.

"Come, come, grandpa specially prepared a gift for you." As he spoke, he took a pair of bracelet-like things from Xiao Wang and put them on the arms of the two little guys respectively. I made a folding soft sword, and when I grow up, I should practice martial arts well and defend my motherland."

The corners of Ling Yun's mouth twitched a little, "Grandpa, the child is still young."

"Children grow up fast." Ling Zhiyuan didn't care how old the two little guys were.

Seeing that Ling Zhiyuan liked children so much, Ling Yun smiled and pointed her head and said to Ruan Li softly, "I haven't seen the old man so happy. I thought I was thinking about something for the past half month. It turned out that I was preparing a gift for the child." You don't know, since the old man retired, he hasn't made a weapon with his own hands. Hey, by the way, these two children really belong to your family?"

Ruan Li changed the subject in a low voice, "It seems that the two little guys are very lucky to be so pampered not long after they were born."

"Children are pets." Hearing Ruan Li's words, Ling Zhiyuan said in a neutral voice, and continued to tease the two little guys, while An Zhuo kept looking at the two little guys with a smile.

The room was full of joy and harmony, except for Yu Chi who closed his eyes and fell asleep after entering the room and sitting down.Ruan Li glanced at Yu Chi, and asked Ling Yun in a softer voice, "Is there anyone else coming?"

"How do you know?" Ling Yun was surprised.

"Is it related to Yuchi?"

Ling Yun sighed softly, "You guessed it right. Yu Chi's family has known about it for a long time since Yu Chi returned to China, and they have been in touch recently. When we met, Uncle Yu thought of a compromise..."

Before Ling Yun finished speaking here, someone came to report that Yu's family was here, and Duan Yunlian, the takeaway, also came uninvited.

A group of people appeared in the living room again, and the spacious living room didn't look crowded. Father Yu just came in and glanced at Yu Chi, who was dozing off, and then greeted Ling Zhiyuan with a smile, "Brother Ling, are you all right?"

When Yu Chi heard Father Yu's voice, his long eyelashes trembled, and then he slowly opened his eyes. After opening his eyes, he saw Duan Yunlian sitting next to him. Yu Chi yawned lazily, Ask, "Why are you here?"

"Don't worry." Duan Yunlian held Yu Chi's hand and said.

Yu Chi took another look at Mother Yu who was hesitating, got up, walked in front of Duan Yunlian, and sat on Duan Yunlian, "Let me back, the chair is uncomfortable to sleep on." Duan Yunlian smiled and put her arms around her. Yu Chi, let Yu Chi sleep well.

The expressions of Yu's father and Yu's mother changed instantly.But after all, considering that they were in someone else's house, they didn't say anything. Besides, their son hadn't seen him for ten years, and it seemed that the Chinese New Year was about to come. This time they came to pick him up for the Chinese New Year.

The atmosphere was a bit sluggish, just as someone from the kitchen came over to inform that lunch was ready, and the group went to the restaurant for dinner again.

The dinner table was full of excitement. Ling Zhiyuan liked the two children very much, but he couldn't hug two of them during the meal, so he reluctantly handed the other to An Zhuo. An Zhuo took the child with a smile and said, "If you like , we will come here often.”

"Well, I think I will send someone to pick up my great-grandson, and you all have to come over then."

After Ling Zhiyuan talked to Father Yu, he was busy feeding and teasing the child again, while Father Yu talked to Yu Chi, "Xiao Chi, it's been so long, it's time to go home."

Yu Chi didn't raise his eyes, he ate his food, and said after a while, "I'm doing well now."

The meaning is obvious, don't go back.

Yu's mother is the standard image of a noble lady, well maintained, her face is exquisite, her watery eyes are full of worry, she looks at Yu Chi, praying with a heavy meaning, "Xiaochi..."

Yu Chi put down his chopsticks and said, "I'm full."

Mother Yu was embarrassed and looked at her husband.Just as Father Yu was about to speak, he heard Duan Yunlian say, "Uncle and Auntie, Xiao Chi has lived a very good life at my house, and now I am with him, I hope you will be successful."

Yu Chi looked at Duan Yunlian in shock, then stood up and said to those present, "I'm leaving first."

Duan Yunlian did not go after her, but waited for Yu's father and Yu's mother to agree.Yu's father and Yu's mother looked unhappy, and before they had time to say no, Duan Yunlian stopped him, "You don't want what happened ten years ago to happen again, do you? I promise here that I will definitely take good care of Yu Chi."

When Yu's father and Yu's mother heard Duan Yunlian mention ten years ago, their expressions changed again, and the two finally sighed softly, "You can do as you like."

Duan Yunlian saw that her goal was achieved, she got up with a smile and left, and chased after Yuchi.It is already mid-January at this time, and in a few days, it will be Chinese New Year.It was still a clear sky in the morning, but it had turned cloudy at this time, and white snow fell from the top of the head and landed on the ground.Duan Yunlian was driving on the road looking for Yuchi, and saw Yuchi on the bridge.He stopped the car, held an umbrella, and walked to Yu Chi's side, protecting Yu Chi from the wind and snow.Domineering yet gentle, "In the future, stay by my side. I will not disappear."

Yu Chi lay on the bridge railing, looked into the distance, and didn't answer.

Half a month has passed since the Ling family's trip, and it is approaching the end of the new year, and everyone is starting to prepare things for the new year.This is Ruan Li and An Zhuo's first New Year since they came to City B, and also the first New Year after their child was born, which is of great significance.

There was a big shopping before the year, and the three of them took their children to the supermarket for a big shopping, and prepared all the things they needed for the New Year.Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was already the 29th year of the new year. On this day, Ruan Li went to Xi Yelan's house to ask for couplets. There was no way, Xi Yelan's calligraphy was better than his. When you come to the door, you have to make a move.Ruan Li asked for several pairs, kept some for the family, and gave the rest to the Ling family and Fan Qiyou's family.The two old people got the couplets and couldn't put them down, so they took a lot of things for Ruan Li to take home for the New Year. So, on the 29th day of the Chinese New Year, Ruan Li exchanged the couplets written by Xi Yelan for a lot of food.

On New Year's Eve, couplets were pasted on the doors, and there were many doors on the second floor of the small building. It took a long time for several people to finish posting them all.After posting the couplets, Ruan Li and An Zhuo were busy with the New Year's Eve dinner, and Yu Chi took care of the children.After a busy afternoon, the two of them finally had a very rich New Year's Eve dinner.The meal was served, and the three of them sat around, Ruan Li and An Zhuo each holding a child, watching the Spring Festival Gala while eating.

For the first time in ten years, Yu Chi did not celebrate the New Year alone. He ate, shed tears, and said to the empty seat beside him, "Qinlian, Happy New Year."

Ruan Li and An Zhuo looked at each other speechlessly.A dinner was procrastinated until eleven o'clock. After packing up, the three of them went upstairs to rest after watching the Spring Festival Gala.The child was already asleep at this time.

Lying on the bed, Ruan Li hugged An Zhuo, kissed and kissed again and again, feeling extremely happy.He told An Zhuo about his future plans, "An Zhuo, I plan to save money next year and open a gallery. After the gallery makes money, I will buy a house in City B. After that, we will settle down in City B."

"Okay." An Zhuo hugged Ruan Li, and said with a smile about his own plan, "Next year, I will enter the world of oil painting."

"Let's work hard together." Ruan Li smiled softly, then, kissed An Zhuo's lips, and worked hard together to produce another pair of little guys.

An Zhuo was panting again and again from Ruan Li's torment, and at the end he didn't forget to remind Ruan Li, "Put on the condom, I don't want to have another life."

Ruan Li laughed out loud, ignored An Zhuo's reminder, and carried the second child into An Zhuo's body, "I like children."
