Wedding date?
On the way back, the two discussed getting married at the beginning of the year and trying to have a dragon baby at the end of the year.
Ruan Xianxian likes dragon babies or pig babies, but waiting for the Year of the Pig is too long, so she might as well go for it in one go.
Miyano spoke first, then looked tenderly at his lover who had been with him for nine lifetimes and abandoned him nine times, suppressing his impatience to wait even a day longer, and said with a smile:
“We want to get our marriage certificate at the beginning of the year, but we’ll have to trouble Dad and Grandma to help us with that.”
Yan Fenghua and Feng Guang's faces froze instantly. No matter how well the former spoke, the thought of her granddaughter getting married soon still made her feel as if her own flesh was being torn out.
The latter is a political consideration; the news that the old gentleman's condition has largely recovered has not been announced to the public, and it has only been a few months since then.
The death of that person will surely cause great chaos in the country. The main reason is that a strange wind has been blowing from somewhere recently at the top, saying that a powerful person has predicted that there will be a huge earthquake in 1976.
Things happen one after another; these two really know how to pick their timing.
Seeing that the two elders remained silent and lost in thought, Miyano took the blame upon himself.
"The main reason is that I want a baby born in the Year of the Dragon; I don't really like any of the other attributes."
Or perhaps if the two of us aren't in a rush, we'd like to enjoy a few years of alone time, and we can consider having children later, perhaps in the Year of the Pig.
These words struck a nerve with the two elderly people, and they stood up together and said in unison, "No way!"
They can't wait until the Year of the Pig, who are they trying to drive to their wits' end?
He began to plan in his mind that the original plan for the two young people was to avoid the chaos of 1976 and then get things done in 1977!
But as Miyano said, if the two of them had a child, it would very likely be born in the Year of the Sheep.
The old man was very superstitious and felt that being born in the Year of the Sheep was not good. There was an old saying that nine out of ten sheep are incomplete, and that only one out of ten would be exceptionally noble!
But nobody wants to gamble on a one-in-ten probability.
Feng Guang made the decision: "At the beginning of the year."
He grinned like an old bandit; anyone who didn't know better would think he was about to snatch someone's child. "Dragon baby is great! I want a dragon baby!"
Although Yan Fenghua was reluctant to part with her granddaughter, she calmed down when she thought about the great-grandchild she was about to have and even had a lot of expectations.
"Time is tight, but we can still hurry!"
She plans to return to Haishi this week to give away the family fortune left by the Yan family as a dowry for her granddaughter.
Ruan Xianxian, who had already poached them all: ...
With just one sentence, Miyano changed the two elders' minds. He leaned closer and lowered his voice.
"I received news that the person has recovered and there will be no major incidents in the first half of the year."
The news is currently confidential; Dad, please don't reveal it to anyone.
Feng Guang was overjoyed at first, then glared at his unfilial son. What did he take him for? A sieve?
The wedding date was set for early January next year.
The house was in complete chaos, like a boiling pot of water. Grandma was frantically busy with everything: the dowry, the new house renovation, the guest list, and the wedding banquet.
Although we've decided to hold a small event, we still need to prepare all of these things.
Feng Guang was like a headless fly, frantically searching for betrothal gifts, wedding rooms, and more wedding rooms!
Suddenly remembering something, he slapped his forehead, took out a page of the property deed from his briefcase, and smiled like an old child begging for candy.
"I heard Xianxian likes courtyard houses, so this is for you."
Ruan Xianxian took the paper and smiled. Feng Guang had prepared a two-courtyard siheyuan for them in Beijing, near the courtyard that Xie Zheng had prepared for her.
It's clear that they put a lot of thought into it.
“The courtyard is too big; it’s too quiet for just the two of you. Two courtyards would be just right.” He whispered to Ruan Xianxian, who was fiddling with the property certificate.
“In addition, Dad has also prepared a three-courtyard house as part of your betrothal gifts.”
"Thank you, Uncle Feng." He hasn't changed his address yet; don't even think about tricking her into calling him "Dad."
With the wedding date finally set, both families were incredibly busy, and even Sister Feng, who lived in Beijing, was brought in to help with the hard work.
The plan was finalized and then overturned because of Ruan Xianxian. She had performed meritorious service on the high seas and was rewarded with two courtyards, which were delivered by the old gentleman's guard on New Year's Day.
Seeing the house decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, the guard smiled and congratulated them, saying, "The old gentleman guessed that your good news was coming soon, so he specially asked me to bring this over."
The box was opened to reveal a large four-courtyard house and a three-courtyard house privately owned by the old gentleman.
Holding the two thin sheets of paper, Ruan Xianxian was overjoyed and grinned from ear to ear in front of the guards.
"You understand me so well, sir. I don't know how to thank you enough. How about I kowtow to you?"
If she refuses several times before accepting it, it will not only seem fake, but the struggle will also make it seem like the old man is begging her to accept it, which is not good.
The guard's serious expression was amused, and he explained:
"The reason we delivered the items only today is because the house needs repairs."
The old gentleman hired craftsmen who repaired the palace and spent half a year renovating and maintaining the two courtyard houses.
The repairs were completed a few days ago; after buying some furniture, we can move in.
Ruan Xianxian was not only excited, but also genuinely moved!
Such an important leader, who was so busy with national affairs that he could turn the world upside down, actually thought of renovating the house that was given to her!
There was no need to go this far. The sincerity has been shown. What else could it be but that I have her in my heart and am seriously considering her needs?
Ruan Xianxian invited the guards into the house and took out a porcelain bottle, lowering his voice.
"My superpowers have improved during this time. The liquid in the bottle is a spiritual liquid extracted from an ancient plant near Kunlun Mountain."
This is the only copy; I hope the old gentleman will make good use of it and recover his health completely as soon as possible.
The guard gripped the small porcelain bottle tightly, and a hint of surprise flickered across his face, though not outwardly obvious, which Ruan Xianxian noticed.
Based on the timeline, she had just provided Bureau 749 with a considerable amount of Spirit Liquid before going on the mission, which should have exhausted all her supernatural abilities, leaving her with no more at this point.
This proves that the old man did all this not to get any benefits from her, but because he was truly sincere!
Holding the small porcelain bottle, the guard was at a loss for what to do. He hadn't been prepared for this beforehand. If he had known, it wouldn't have been a mistake to send a troop to escort the item.
Ruan Xianxian understood the guard's concern and caution regarding whether the old man could fully recover. She thought for a moment:
"If you don't mind, could you take me and Miyano along? It's not far, and I'm eager to see the new house."
Low emotional intelligence: You're afraid something bad will happen, so I'll bring you a powerful weapon to take you back, ensuring your safety on the way.
High EQ: I can't wait to see the new house, give us a ride!
The guard clearly understood, and a hint of emotion appeared in his eyes. No wonder his husband liked him; Comrade Ruan was not only capable and thoughtful in his work, but he also took care of his feelings.
This little girl just wants people to give her the best of everything!
Her expression softened. "Then I'll have to trouble you."
Ruan Xianxian grinned, "I should be the one troubling you!"
The matter was settled, and just as he was about to leave the room, the guard, as if remembering something, pulled a slip of paper from his pocket.
"I almost forgot, the note has the craftsman's home address. We can contact him to make furniture later. The old man told us that!"
