After the press conference.
Ji Nanfeng immediately helped Ruan Tang down from the podium.
Ruan Tang laughed and joked, "You seem to have lost a lot of weight. The bones in your hands are hurting."
Ji Nanfeng had a tense face and forced a smile.
Ruan Tang held Ji Nanfeng's hand in hers. "What's wrong? Is there something wrong at home?"
She just glanced around the podium and found that Ruan's mother and Xiao Baibai were not there. Only Ruan's father came with Ji Xiaodi and Gao Qin.
Ji Nanfeng shook his head, "No, I saw that uncle from the Ji family. I'll talk about it when I get home."
Ruan Tang finally felt relieved and smiled broadly to greet her relatives, friends and volunteers.
Friends and relatives tactfully stood in two rows, allowing Ruan Tang to greet all the volunteers.
Ruan Tang stood in front of the volunteers and bowed deeply.
When she stood up again, her voice was choked.
"If one day I entrust you with my life, I will definitely not let you down!"
The volunteers couldn't help but wipe away their tears. One said, "Director Ruan has given us a new life, and we've helped Director Ruan... From now on, we're not just friends who have shared our lives together."
After so many days of getting along with each other, many volunteers have developed a revolutionary friendship and have exchanged contact information.
Ruan Tang wanted to treat everyone to a meal, but the volunteers were unwilling to let Ruan Tang spend the money, and they all said they would be gone soon.
The volunteers were afraid that Ruan Tang would drag them to eat, so they waved their hands and dispersed after a while.
Father Ruan called out to his relatives and friends: "Let's go home together. It's freezing cold, so it's the perfect time to go home and eat hot pot."
The medical staff of Provincial No. 1 Hospital have already spent a lot of time in Beijing because of this case, and they have already bought train tickets for tomorrow morning.
Everyone started chatting and laughing and ordered food, shouting and urging their food to go out together.
"Dean Ruan, wait a moment."
Ruan Tang turned around and saw Minister Ji.
Everyone turned around and saw Minister Ji.
Their expressions were strange. They had just spotted this Minister Ji on the rostrum, and he looked too much like Ji Nanfeng.
Little Brother Ji looked at Minister Ji, then at Ji Nanfeng. "Hey, why does this person look so much like the portrait of the deceased that we have at home?"
Minister Ji looked at Ji Xiaodi. He could tell that although Ji Xiaodi was younger, there was a bit of his shadow in his eyes and eyebrows. "Posthumous photo? What posthumous photo?"
"This isn't the place to talk. Let's make an appointment to talk tomorrow. It just so happens that I have a lot of questions for you."
After Ji Nanfeng finished speaking, he pulled Ruan Tang and left with a group of people.
Minister Ji was left standing there alone, looking at Ji Nanfeng's back, his heart burning with anger.
After everyone had left, Zhan Tingbai approached Minister Ji with a handkerchief in her hand.
"Old Ji, I just saw Dean Ruan's man, he looks a bit like you."
Minister Ji took the lead and said, "Go home."
Zhan Tingbai, who knew that Minister Ji had no intention of recognizing his relatives, happily agreed.
As soon as he got home, Minister Ji locked the door. "Tell me, what's going on? Don't play dumb, you know what I'm asking."
Zhan Tingbai's face turned pale. "Old Ji, I really took Gao Yang back to Hongyang County. They said your family was gone, and I even spent money to help your family repair the ancestral tomb."
Minister Ji glanced at Zhan Tingbai and went to the study.
Zhan Tingbai secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he had passed this hurdle.
Unexpectedly, Minister Ji actually took out a pen and notebook from the study!
"Zhan Ting, Bai Qizhi, think it through before you speak."
Minister Ji took a pen and acted as if he wanted to write down everything Zhan Tingbai said.
Zhan Tingbai's face turned pale: "Old Ji, I am your wife, you are acting like you are interrogating a prisoner."
Minister Ji said in a gloomy tone, "As a husband, I have also taken great pains to prevent my wife from lying."
Zhan Tingbai knew from the words that Old Ji didn't believe a single word she had just said.
Zhan Tingbai glanced at the pen in Minister Ji's hand and said, "I took Gao Yang back to Hongyang County and asked the county staff to check your name, Ji Jingshan, and found that your household registration is in Qingyun Brigade."
"When we went there, the team leader told us that Ji Jingshan's home was at the foot of the mountain. That flood broke out, and it rained for several days, and the whole family died in the mudslide."
"I met Dean Ruan's family when Elder He's youngest son got married. Because of a misunderstanding during the family reunion, their people beat up our Gao Yang. I was furious and kept it a secret from you."
"This is the last time I'll see them."
When Minister Ji saw that Zhan Tingbai had finished her explanation, he handed her the notebook and asked her to sign it.
Zhan Tingbai looked at the words above, confirmed that they were correct, and signed.
Minister Ji took the notebook and went out. He wanted to apply to check Ji Nanfeng's file.
On the other side, everyone returned to the Ruan family courtyard and prepared the ingredients themselves.
Seeing that Ji Nanfeng looked normal, Ruan Tang relaxed and invited everyone to eat and drink.
When Liu Yu came to Beijing, he also had his own way of getting a lot of beef and mutton.
Because it was cold, the food was frozen solid when it was brought over. Ruan Tang wanted to ask Ruan's father to cut it into thin slices with a knife so that it would be so delicious when eaten in hot pot.
"dad--"
“Hey!”
“Hey!”
Two voices rang out.
Father Ruan looked over in the direction of the voice and saw Gong Huamao actually responded.
If he remembered correctly, Gong Huamao didn't have a daughter, right?
Gong Huamao just agreed, completely forgetting that Ruan's father was still there.
Father Ruan's eyes fell on Gong Huamao's face, puzzled. What was Gong Huamao feeling guilty about?
It was just a wrong answer, how could he be so petty? Besides, today was his daughter's day, how could he be so petty as to spoil the fun?
Ruan Tang's heart trembled, and she glanced at Ruan's father's face. It seemed that he didn't suspect anything and was ready to slip away.
"Mom, you come cut the beef."
“Hey!”
“Hey!”
Two more voices rang out at once.
Mother Ruan looked at Mother Gong who was ready to fight.
Mother Gong's face was full of excitement. She had had enough of the sneaking around. If Gong Huamao hadn't forbidden her, she would have broken the window paper long ago.
Even if Mr. Ruan was slow-witted, he could vaguely feel that something was wrong.
Mother Gong rolled up her sleeves and, smiling, told Ruan Tang to go talk to the young man. "Don't worry, I'm here for you. Don't be afraid."
Ruan Tang shrank her neck and slipped away.
This scene was not something she could bear.
Father Ruan frowned: "Gong Huamao, what's going on between you and your wife?"
His wife has already admitted it, what else can he hide?!
And the feeling of his wife just calling herself "Mom" is really great and I'm so envious!
Gong Huamao's neck stiffened. "Just as you saw, Xiao Tanger has accepted us as his godparents. My son-in-law comes to Beijing from time to time and brings us some food and visits us at home."
Ji Nanfeng, who was thinking about something while picking vegetables in the corner: ...Wife, wait for me, take me for a walk.
