"But given Old Master Qian's temper... I'm afraid we'll have to give him a huge way out."
Fengling pondered how to get Old Master Qian to agree, and the thought alone gave her a headache.
Ruo Tinghan shook his head:
"Why do you think he agreed to come to the banquet yesterday?"
"Why?"
"Of course it's for you."
"I?"
"It's clear that he still cares a lot about you, his grandson."
Fengling scratched her head. She realized that she hadn't noticed Ruo Qingyan because her eyes were on her during the banquet last night.
However, Ruo Tinghan noticed that Old Master Qian's gaze kept glancing at Feng Ling.
So Fengling agreed to give it a try and set off immediately.
Naturally, I should bring many gifts, but most importantly, I should bring Ruo Qingyan.
This time, Fengling wasn't turned away again, after all, she had been to Qianjia's house more than once or twice.
Old Master Qian seemed to have a premonition as well, and was waiting in the courtyard early on.
Before going, Fengling had already informed Ruo Qingyan.
"Wife, when we see him later, we'll call him Grandpa without saying a word, no matter how he reacts."
Ruo Qingyan hesitated:
"But...I'm not even officially married into the family yet..."
"Don't worry, when we get married, he won't skimp on the 'change of address' fee for you."
That's not what I meant!
Although Ruo Qingyan felt it was inappropriate, she agreed for the sake of the bigger picture.
Upon meeting, the two immediately addressed each other as "Grandpa".
Even Old Master Qian didn't expect this, and he snorted coldly:
"I'm not your grandfather..."
"Yes, yes, yes... Grandpa is right!"
Qianduying:...
What are you doing here?
"Nothing much, just came to visit Grandpa and brought him a small gift. It's just a little something from a younger generation; please accept it..."
Ruo Qingyan quickly added that the Ruo family would send her a big gift in the future.
After silently accepting the gifts, Old Master Qian couldn't help but say:
"Speak your mind directly."
"Then I'll really tell you, Grandpa..."
"explain!"
"I would like to ask you to lead the thousand families in announcing their return to the present world."
"No, decades ago I declared I would retire from public life, and now I'm back. Does that mean my words are just empty talk?"
Feng Ling quickly stepped forward to comfort him:
"You can't say that... Grandpa, listen to me...blah blah blah..."
Fengling explained the current situation to Qian Duying. China is in a time of crisis. If the Qian family helps at this time, who would still mock the Qian family? They would only feel that the Qian family is righteous!
As he spoke, he massaged Old Master Qian's shoulders:
"Wow! Grandpa, your shoulders are really strong. Let me give you a massage..."
Ruo Qingyan looked at Feng Ling's attentive manner and couldn't help but turn her head away, pretending to look elsewhere and secretly laughing.
Grandpa Qian looked very helpless, but he was secretly enjoying himself. However, he just wouldn't agree to Feng Ling's request, mumbling incoherently.
"What, you realize threatening me isn't working, so you're resorting to appeasement? You think that'll work? Humph!"
"When did I ever threaten you?! You're completely innocent! I admit I raised my voice a bit when I begged you before, I apologize...hehe..."
Fengling knew that as long as Old Master Qian could save face, everything was negotiable!
Especially in front of Ruo Qingyan, with Ruo Qingyan watching, it will definitely be twice as effective.
In fact, after this period of time, Master Qian had roughly seen through the true nature of Feng Ling.
He had said before that people reveal their true nature when they are in the most urgent situation.
Although Fengling's actions were somewhat outrageous, it still showed that while he had no affection for the Qian family, he also harbored no hostility towards them.
What he's doing now is more likely driven by self-interest.
But a thousand shadows, for the wind chimes!
This is his own grandson. As people get older, they have deep feelings for their blood relatives.
So he was really enjoying the wind chimes' massage, completely unguarded, lying on the recliner, and even fell asleep while being massaged by the wind chimes.
Wind Chime was stunned. You're really asleep?
Speechless, he looked at Ruo Qingyan. Finally, Ruo Qingyan stopped holding back her laughter and let out a soft laugh. Her smile was more beautiful than all the flowers and plants in the courtyard.
"He's asleep. Shall I give you a massage?"
Ruo Qingyan covered her mouth and chuckled:
"I don't want to."
"What, did you get enough massages last night?"
"you!"
The smile vanished, a warning look appeared in his eyes!
Inner monologue: I can't trust this guy too much next time, and I can't sleep too soundly at night!
Last night was an accident; it was the lingering effect of the Soul-Suppressing Pill.
When Qian Duying was asleep, she had a dream.
He dreamt of many years ago, when Qianyu was still a little girl.
He took the girl to refine elixirs and asked her to fetch the medicine, but she patted her own belly instead.
[Ah...I ate it...]
Qianduying:? ? ?
"What am I supposed to refine if you eat me!?"
[Then... I'll take it out for you tonight?]
Then Qian Shuo was hung up by the old man and spanked for not keeping a close eye on his younger sister.
Qianyu is always mischievous and likes to stick close to her.
Later, he was sent to the Ruo family to cultivate, and then Feng Xing appeared... and abducted his beloved daughter.
He flew into a rage and became hysterical, threatening to sever his father-daughter relationship with Qianyu.
But that day, I suddenly received the devastating news of Qianyu's death...
Tears streamed down his face, his hair turned white overnight, and he announced his retirement, cutting himself off from the world.
Suddenly, she felt someone wiping away her tears. Qian Duying slowly opened her eyes and seemed to see Qian Yu.
"Dad? Why are you crying?"
His daughter looked at him with a worried expression.
"A Thousand Words..."
Old Master Qian murmured to himself, only to be woken up by the wind chimes a second later!
"Grandpa! Wake up! Are you alright? Did you have a nightmare?"
Then, Qianyu's face transformed into a wind chime.
To be honest, Fengling and Qianyu look very alike!
that is...
"Stop shaking!"
Old Master Qian said speechlessly.
"What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare?"
Feng Ling asked in confusion, and Old Master Qian replied irritably:
"Yeah, I dreamt about you."
That means we have a good relationship.
Fengling shamelessly said, "My wife also dreams about me all the time."
If Qingyan: ? ? ?
"Alright, I'll think about what you're talking about. You can go back now."
"Oh, you're not even letting us have dinner?"
When Feng Ling asked, Old Master Qian replied coldly:
“My family doesn’t have such a lavish diet.”
"Haha! It's okay, as long as there's food, that's fine."
Although Master Qian said that, he still sent people to prepare a Manchu Han Imperial Feast to entertain Feng Ling and Ruo Qingyan.
How can a maternal grandfather's family be inferior to a father-in-law's family?
During dinner that evening, Grandpa Qian invited his entire family to join him.
Qi Xinyu introduced all the relatives at the table.
Everyone had a smile on their face.
Meanwhile, Fengling's cousins stared intently at him and Ruo Qingyan, as if they were some rare species.
