It was the next morning again, and Yun Qianran was rubbing against Zhuang Tingyun's arms like a kitten.
Zhuang Tingyun hugged her, with a hint of teasing in his eyes, "As the saying goes, a day's plan begins in the morning."
Yun Qianran looked up at his chin, moved her body upwards, laid on his chest, and licked his Adam's apple gently, "So we shouldn't miss the good time in the early morning."
Their eyes met, and they instantly understood each other's meaning, "Come."
Yun Qianran took the initiative to sit on his waist, and he tried his best to adjust his posture so that she would not be too tired.
However, before the two of them were halfway through, a tentative voice sounded from outside, "Ran'er, are you free today?"
Zhang Chufeng stood in front of the courtyard gate and stuck his head out to look inside.
The two people who were busy in the room stopped moving, looked at each other, and stood up and started to put on their clothes at the same time, "What's wrong, grandma?"
Yun Qianran was putting on her clothes while asking outside about the situation.
...
...
Zhang Chufeng was relieved when she heard her calm voice, "Grandma wants to take you and Xiaozhuang home to play."
"Go home, to the Zhang family?" Yun Qianran subconsciously thought of her grandmother's family.
"Yes." Zhang Chufeng smiled outside.
"Grandma, wait a moment." Yun Qianran and the other girl put on their clothes and opened the window to ventilate the room.
After about five minutes, he opened the door and walked out, "Grandma, when are we going back?"
She was quite happy to visit the Zhang family.
"Let's see when it's convenient for you." Zhang Chufeng looked behind her.
Zhuang Tingyun came out next, "Now is the time."
"Then let's go back now." Zhang Chufeng called them.
"Okay." Following grandma, the three of them came to Zhang's house.
The Zhang family, who had known that they would return, warmly welcomed them. All the family members, young and old, were present, except for those who could not return home for special reasons such as studying abroad.
"Come here, Ran'er. Grandma will introduce you. This is the current head of the Zhang family and grandma's eldest brother. You can just call him uncle. The one standing next to him is his wife. You can call her aunt-in-law.
This is grandma’s second brother, you can call him second uncle, and the one next to him is second aunt-in-law. And this is grandma’s younger sister, you can call her little aunt-in-law, and the one next to her is little uncle-in-law.
This young man here is your uncle's son, and he is currently managing the Zhang family's business in the northwest of China."
Yun Qianran followed behind her grandmother and listened to her introduce the entire Zhang family. Every time her grandmother introduced someone, she would call out, and in return she would receive high praise from the other party, with people saying things like "this child is really well-behaved and really nice."
After going around, Yun Qianran had an impression of everyone, and everyone also remembered her, the second granddaughter of the Yun family who was living outside, and most importantly, the wife of the head of the Zhuang family. This identity was the main reason they remembered her.
"Brother, what are we having for lunch?" Zhang Chufeng pulled Yun Qianran and looked at his brother Zhang Yulin with a smile.
Zhang Yulin glared, "Don't worry, I will definitely not treat you unfairly."
Not to mention that Yun Qianran and Zhuang Tingyun were here today, even when the two of them were not there, they would always prepare delicious food for Zhang Chufeng whenever he came back.
The delicious food and wine were soon served. Zhang Yulin invited the three to sit down. Zhang Chufeng and Yun Qianran sat on his left and right. "Ran'er, Xiaozhuang, don't be polite. Eat and drink as much as you want."
"Thank you grandma, thank you uncle." Yun Qianran nodded obediently, and then began to eat and drink, while Zhuang Tingyun took the initiative to raise the glass to toast. The family of my daughter-in-law's grandmother is roughly equivalent to my daughter-in-law's family, so I can't put on airs.
Zhang Yulin never refuses anyone who comes to him. For a company like Zhuangjia that has assets all over the world, he really wants to get closer to them.
Zhuang Tingyun was thinking the same thing at this time. Although the Zhang family was not as strong as the Zhuang family, their overall strength was not bad, and with the Yun family as their backup, they were the best partners.
The two of them drank and hit it off immediately, and within a meal they decided on the business layout for the next fifty years in the world.
In the end, the two of them almost called each other brothers. Seeing grandma's twitching eyebrows, Yun Qianran pulled the man away and said, "Uncle, this guy is drunk and speaks without restraint. We will visit you next time."
She dragged Zhuang Tingyun away forcibly, despite his reluctance.
After leaving Zhang's house, Zhuang Tingyun immediately sobered up, "My uncle is really amazing."
He sighed, no wonder that he was an old fox who had been in the business world for decades. He almost got involved in today's negotiations.
"That's right. Don't you see whose family he is? He is our uncle." Yun Qianran took over the conversation.
Zhuang Tingyun thought about it and realized that this was the truth. No matter how powerful they were, they were still relatives after all, which was stronger than enemies.
The three of them returned to the Yun family, and before they even walked in, they heard the voice of their younger sister Yun Xi.
"Grandpa, please teach me. I promise to study hard in the future."
"Now you know how to cram. That's what I always tell you."
Yun Qianran and the other person looked at each other and quickly walked towards the direction where the sound came from.
Hearing the noise, Yun Xi turned to look at the two of them, "Second sister, second brother-in-law, come and help me tell grandpa that my school is going to hold a calligraphy competition soon. I asked grandpa to teach me some useful techniques so that I won't lose too badly, but grandpa said there is no such thing."
Yun Xi pouted. If it wasn't for the fact that her credits for this semester were so far off, she would never have been able to participate in this competition. What was she working so hard for? Credits.
Yun Qianran came to the desk between them and looked at the two large characters that had just been written on it. One was strong and powerful, while the other was just a form.
Obviously, it's just the simplest big characters, but it can also be seen that Yun Xi's understanding of calligraphy is still at the stage of imitation.
"Second sister, please help me." Yun Xi pulled her arm and acted coquettishly.
Yun Qianran took out a piece of rice paper from the side, placed it on the table, then picked up the brush and wrote a big word in one go, "Do you like this kind of words?"
The smile on Yun Changsheng's face froze. He was originally prepared to wait for Yun Qianran to ask him for help, but at this moment he seemed to have discovered a new world, "Ran'er, who did you learn this from?"
This handwriting is simply amazing, isn't it? He has been immersed in calligraphy for most of his life. It can be said that apart from eating, drinking and working, he basically spends his time writing and drawing. But what he wrote in the end is almost the same as his granddaughter's?
And it was obvious that Yun Qianran had just written it casually. If he had asked her to write it seriously, he dared not imagine the result, but it would definitely be better than his.
Yun Xi couldn't tell whether Yun Qianran's writing was good or bad, but she could understand her grandfather's expression. He was not only shocked, but even a little happy, so there must be nothing wrong with the handwriting of her second sister.
She clapped her hands and cheered loudly, "I like it. Second sister, can you teach me?"
“Okay.” Yun Qianran did not refuse. Yun Xi liked to imitate, but even if they imitated, many people could not reach the standard.
The fact that Yun Xi was able to meet the standard showed that she had some basic skills. She only needed to change the way she wrote to improve her calligraphy skills.
Yun Qianran held the brush and explained carefully, "Your handwriting is not completely without merit, but it is a bit rigid. It should be because of your grandfather. You wanted to imitate him, but in the end you ended up drawing a dog instead of a tiger.
This won't work. Grandpa said that if you cram at the last minute, then your calligraphy competition will definitely be soon. If you want to change in such a short time, there is only one way, change your mindset.
When you write, try to be more casual and not worry too much about gains and losses. What you write will definitely be different."
Although Yun Qianran was explaining, his hands did not stop working. In just a few words, he wrote an article about Linjiangxian.
Yun Xi and Yun Changsheng were both attracted by her Linjiangxian.
"Second sister, your handwriting is so beautiful, just like grandpa's."
"Nonsense, how can grandpa compare with your second sister? This handwriting is much more beautiful than grandpa's."
Yun Changsheng and the other man were generous with their praise.
"Second sister, how did you practice your handwriting?" Yun Xi held Linjiangxian and looked at it again and again. She couldn't tell whether it was good or bad, but looking at the handwriting made her feel inexplicably at ease. It could affect her mood, which was a good thing.
Yun Changsheng watched her movements, his heart trembling, fearing that she would damage the rice paper.
She noticed that Grandpa was acting strangely, turned around and asked, "What's wrong, Grandpa?"
Yun Changsheng pointed at the rice paper in her hand and said, "Put it down. Be careful not to damage it."
Yun Xi put it down without knowing why, and Yun Changsheng immediately took it over. "Okay, okay, this handwriting is probably only comparable to those top calligraphers. Come, get a frame, I want to collect this Linjiangxian."
"So powerful?" Yun Xi covered her mouth. Grandpa's actions didn't seem fake. The second sister was really capable.
She hugged Yun Qianran's arm again and pleaded coquettishly: "Second sister, why don't you come and be my external aid? With you, why would I need to study on my own?"
"No!" Yun Changsheng blew his beard and glared, "How can you grow if you always want to rely on others?"
"But grandpa, if I'm eliminated in the first round, it will be a disgrace to the Yun family. You don't want to be laughed at by other friends outside because your granddaughter can't even write clearly, do you?"
"Second sister, just promise me."
Yun Qianran smiled and nodded, "Okay, Second Sister promises you, but you have to tell Second Sister what this calligraphy competition and foreign aid are all about."
"Really? Second sister, I love you!" Yun Xi hugged her and explained to her.
The calligraphy competition is very simple. It is a competition for everyone in the school. It is not mandatory for everyone to participate, but anyone who wants to participate can sign up.
There are two rounds in total, the first round is screening and the second round is final. Passing one round will add two credits, and passing two rounds will add five credits.
Those who can get the first three places will get additional eight points, ten points and twenty points respectively.
The competition allows for a foreign aid. I don’t know what the organizers are thinking, but the foreign aid can play as a contestant, and the rewards received also belong to the contestant.
As for the time of the competition, it will be tomorrow, which is why Yun Changsheng said she was cramming.
After listening to the rules, Yun Qianran agreed again, "Send me the specific start time and location, and I'll go there then."
"Okay, second sister." Yun Xi quickly sent her the venue of the competition.
"Then I'll go back to school to help my second sister sign up for my foreign aid." Fearing that she would go back on her word, Yun Xi turned around and disappeared from their sight.
Yun Changsheng shook his head helplessly, "It's not good for you to spoil her like this."
"It's okay, Grandpa. If you're not good at calligraphy, we can still learn painting and other things. There will always be something that Third Sister is interested in." Yun Qianran still understood the principle of teaching students in accordance with their aptitude.
Yun Changsheng had no choice but to take her Linjiangxian to have it framed. Yun Qianran smiled and took Zhuang Tingyun back to the room.
"Madam." Zhuang Tingyun leaned on her.
Yun Qianran pushed his head away and said, "Enough is enough."
Zhuang Tingyun felt wronged, "But Madam, we are newlyweds."
“That won’t work either.” Yun Qianran pulled the quilt over herself.
"Okay, ma'am, I respect your opinion." Zhuang Tingyun leaned over and kissed her on the lips.
Just when Yun Qianran thought he was going to pull away, something soft invaded her mouth from his lips.
Yun Qianran's eyes widened. Was this how he respected her opinion?
Looking at the person on top of her, he kissed her from her lips to her neck, and then all the way down.
A little bit of heat emanated from her body, and her originally fair skin turned pink. She raised her arms and directly wrapped them around his neck, "I wanted to let you rest for a while."
"Madam, please don't underestimate me. I don't need to rest." Zhuang Tingyun lingered in her heart.
“Then don’t shout to stop.” Yun Qianran gritted her teeth and raised her little fist and waved it in front of him.
"No." Zhuang Tingyun kissed her pubic bone, gently and slowly.
In an instant, the two of them were frank with each other, intertwined and lingering, and the noise in the house continued until late at night. Yun Qianran resisted the sleepiness and kept pressing his abdomen with her palm. Zhuang Tingyun raised his hand to stop him, "Madam, don't."
"Who said I wouldn't stop before?" Yun Qianran's eyes showed a cunning look, "Call me Queen, and I'll let you go."
Zhuang Tingyun hugged her, climbed up her slender neck, and whispered in her ear, "My Queen, please let me go."
"Okay." Yun Qianran smiled and lay down.
Zhuang Tingyun's eyes were full of doting. He covered her with the quilt before lying down beside her. He put his arm under her head, hugged her against his chest, and then closed his eyes.
At eight o'clock the next morning, the two opened their eyes on time, got dressed, had breakfast, and set off for Yunxi's school.
At this time, Yun Xi had already started preparing.
"The first place in the calligraphy competition is worth 20 credits. If we work hard, we might have a chance."
"Bullshit hope. As far as I know, at least three of the participants in this competition are descendants of masters, and there are many people like Yun Xi from scholarly families. Forget about getting first place, it's enough for me to pass the first round."
"Well, reincarnation is also a technical job. Yunxi, what do you say? I heard that your grandfather has won many calligraphy awards. You should at least strive for the top three."
Yun Xi didn't expect the topic to turn to herself. She was stunned for a moment before she came to her senses, "Then it must be in the top three!"
If it were her, she would be satisfied if she could secure the second round, but when her second sister, who was praised by her grandfather, came on stage, she would definitely be first. She said she would be in the top three because she was afraid that people would say she was proud.
"Tsk, you, in the top three? Yun Xi, ah Yun Xi, others may not know you, but I do." A discordant voice made everyone's faces freeze.
They all turned around and saw Jiang Wan, who looked arrogant, coming up to them with two followers.
Jiang Wan was extremely sarcastic, "What does her grandfather's ability have to do with her? She even ranked in the top three in the calligraphy competition. Have you forgotten the few crappy characters she usually writes?"
No one dared to respond. When Jiang Wan was not around, they flattered Yun Xi to please the Yun family, but the Jiang family was stronger than the Yun family, and they could not afford to offend the Yun family, so silence was the best way.
Jiang Wan said provocatively, "If you, Yun Xi, can make it into the top three, I, Jiang Wan, will read my name backwards."
"As I knew, you have disliked the Jiang family for a long time. You said something about reading the name backwards. In fact, you want to find a reason to change your name and take the opportunity to leave the Jiang family, right?" Yun Xi thought with one hand on his chin.
Jiang Wan's expression changed and she scolded, "Shut up."
She can act so arrogant outside because of the Jiang family's reputation. If she leaves the Jiang family, how will she live in the future?
"Okay, I'll shut up." Yun Xi covered her mouth, blinked mischievously, and said in a voice that only the people around her could hear, "Don't worry, I will keep this secret for you, and I look forward to the day when you can truly leave the Jiang family."
Jiang Wan glared at him, "If you say that again, I'll tear your mouth apart."
Yun Xi stepped forward and said, "Come, I'll tear it for you, do you dare?"
The Yun family is well-known in the imperial capital for protecting their own people, but apart from Jiang Wen, the other descendants of the Jiang family are not to be feared.
Jiang Wan retreated angrily, "Only barbarians would take action, not me. Besides, don't forget what day it is today. It's a calligraphy competition. If you have the ability, go and get the top three. What's the point of talking nonsense?"
"The top three is nothing, I want the first place today too!" Yun Xi also got angry.
Jiang Wan's eyes lit up, "Remember, this is what you said. If you can't get first place, I will definitely help you promote what you just said."
"The first place will definitely be mine. I don't need you to promote it." Yun Xi snorted.
"The competition will start in five minutes. Don't just talk, get on stage." Jiang Wan stimulated.
"Five minutes is not five seconds. What does it have to do with you whether I go on stage or not? Don't say that I got first place. It would be ridiculous if you got last place. You are the last disciple of Huangpu, who is known as the contemporary calligraphy master." Yun Xi retorted.
Jiang Wan took a deep breath and opened her mouth to say that she would also compete for first place, but when the words came to her lips, they turned into, "I can't guarantee first place, after all, there are two senior brothers here, but I will definitely have a chance in the top three."
"So what if you can't make the top three?"
"What if you can't get first place?"
The two of them stared at each other, neither of them giving in.
Someone watching the fun nearby said, "Whoever loses will take off all his clothes and run around the football field three times."
The little princesses of the Jiang family and the Yun family may never have the chance to hold hands, but it is also nice to feast their eyes on them.
"Get out!" The two turned around and cursed at the same time.
But the next second they nodded again, "Whoever loses will kneel on the ground and call the other person daddy."
"Okay, everyone present here will bear witness." The two looked around, and the first few people who wanted to flatter Yun Xi were helpless, "We will bear witness."
"There are still two minutes before the game starts." Jiang Wan took the initiative to report the time. The reason why she came to provoke was actually because she heard that Yun Xi had found foreign aid yesterday.
She really wanted to see what kind of foreign aid it was, but now it seemed that the foreign aid had run away?
There was also a hint of anxiety in Yun Xi's eyes. What happened? Could it be that her second sister had overslept?
"Third sister, am I late?" Yun Qianran appeared with Zhuang Tingyun.
Jiang Wan turned around and looked over. Zhuang Tingyun?
She was full of excitement and ran over, "Hello, Mr. Zhuang, we meet again."
