Chapter 277 Chapter 277 Wedding 1
Thinking of Xu Yunfan, Qin Run's lips curled up involuntarily, and the light in his eyes softened. "Xiaobao looks like Big Brother. Brother Fang said Big Brother is also very smart. Yunfan said that in Big Brother's profession, if you don't have a smart head, people will probably not even pay attention to you, no matter how handsome you are. Yunfan said that in those professions, people only look at strength, not looks."
Hearing this, Qin Qingfeng leaned over to Qin Run's ear and whispered, "So, you guys take good care of Xiaobao. I heard that some children can be harmed if they become too smart."
"No," Qin Run immediately shook his head. "Second Uncle, Yunfan is also very smart. He said that none of the three Xu brothers are unintelligent. They've all been in good health since they were little, and they enjoy eating everything. Xiaobao must be the same."
"Then I feel relieved." Qin Qingfeng was also afraid. Even though Xiaobao was not related to him by blood, he loved Xiaobao very much.
This child is not only well-behaved, but also very polite. When he arrived at Prince Xu's mansion, even though he had been there many times before, every time he wanted to eat something, he would politely ask if it was available and if he could have a piece.
Even though Fu Qingxu didn't like his son very much, he was unusually patient with Xiaobao. Whenever he had free time, he would read storybooks with the children.
Everyone in the mansion said that Fu Qingxu loved his children too much.
Only Qin Qingfeng, who is clear-headed and knows Fu Qingxu too well, knows the truth.
Of course, he loves his child, but it is hard to say how much he loves him. But it is definitely true that Fu Qingxu wants to read a storybook.
Not to mention that Fu Qingxu thought the storybook was interesting, he would also ask about it every time the children came to his house to play.
There's no way around it. Xu Yunfan is so good at stirring up trouble that he even started serializing his stories, which makes people really anxious.
Thinking of the progress Qin An and Qin Mu had made in arithmetic, and then looking at his own two brothers who had been sent to the Meng Academy, which was known as a small imperial academy, and had studied there for several years, Qin An and Qin Mu finished the same paper in half an hour, and did not get a single question wrong. Compared with the Qin An brothers, the Fu Shaoan brothers were much inferior.
"Is Yunfan still teaching Ange'er and the others arithmetic recently?"
Qin Run nodded. "Yes, I teach. Learning never ends. An Ge'er and the others have been studying for so long, but Yun Fan said they have only learned the basics. We can't slack off."
"That's true, Run'er, go back and ask for your uncle if I can..." Qin Qingfeng looked at the Fu Shaoping brothers embarrassedly, "They are older than Mu'er and the others, but they didn't do as well as them in the exam."
"Last time, the two brothers were spanked by your Uncle Xu. Fortunately, they have a good attitude." Qin Qingfeng turned his gaze to Xiaobao and sighed, "There really is a difference between people. It has nothing to do with other things. Some things are really destined at birth."
Qin An and his friends would stay in Prince Xu's mansion for most of the day each time they went there. Xu Yunfan simply asked them to do the homework he assigned.
Qin Qingfeng was very surprised at first. It was really rare for Xu Yunfan, a brother-in-law, to achieve this. Obviously, these were not his responsibilities, but he really had nothing to say about the child.
He looked at the homework of his three children and found that he couldn't understand a lot of it. Not only did the two older children have homework, but even the three-and-a-half-year-old little one had homework.
At the age of three and a half, when he can’t even control his urine, Xiaobao is extremely self-disciplined.
Whenever he saw his two uncles putting away toys, as long as they called out "Xiaobao, it's time to do your homework", he would immediately put away his toys, take out his homework from his schoolbag, pick up the small stool, and do his homework obediently, even if he was having fun.
Fu Qingxu clapped his hands and exclaimed, "Oh!" He just found it funny: "This kid is really good. He knows how to study at such a young age. It's incredible. I have to see him."
As a result, Fu Qingxu came over with a smile, but soon his face looked constipated.
As for why, it’s simple: Xiaobao can’t understand the numbers in his homework.
After they finished, Fu Qingxu suddenly had an idea and asked An Ge'er how they were doing. Qin An patted his chest and said, "Uncle Xu, we are really good. We can do addition and subtraction within ten thousand."
"Is this true?"
"Bao Zhen, Goff has taught us that children should not lie to good people. An Ge'er doesn't lie."
Fu Qingxu was very skeptical, "Then Uncle Xu will test you?"
"Sure." Qin Mu became interested. "Father, don't underestimate us. My brother-in-law has praised us."
The questions were set by Fu Qingxu himself, and the four brothers Fu Shaoping and Qin An took the exam together.
There is no place for Xiaobao.
It’s not that Xiaobao doesn’t want to take the exam, but Fu Qingxu won’t let him.
Even though Qin An and Qin Mu testified that Xiaobao was very capable, Fu Qingxu looked at Xiaobao, who was not much taller than his calf, and when they met Xiaobao's eyes, he really couldn't bear to undermine the child's self-confidence.
It wasn't until he saw the big crosses on his two sons' papers that Xiaobao noticed his expression was off. He squeezed into Fu Qingxu's office, pointed at the crosses on the papers, looked up at Fu Qingxu, and said in a baby voice, "Grandpa Xu, uncle made a mistake here. The answer should be 679."
Fu Qingxu was a little shocked at the time. He didn't know what he was thinking. He pointed at the scroll and said, "How did you know? What about this question? What should the answer be?"
Xiao Bao looked in the direction of Fu Qingxu's index finger. Soon, the little fellow's ten fingers moved. He looked up and said solemnly, "It should be nine hundred and eighty-six."
Fu Qingxu's eyes widened and his expression changed. He then pointed to a few more questions, the difficulty of which gradually increased, but without exception, Xiaobao answered them correctly after just moving his fingers.
Qin Qingfeng, who was watching curiously from the side, was also stunned by this. "How did Xiaobao figure it out?"
Xiaobao tilted his head and thought for a moment, scratching his mushroom head with his short index finger. "It was my father who taught me. He taught me addition and subtraction, and also taught me mental arithmetic..."
The more they listened, the more shocked Qin Qingfeng and his wife were.
Damn it.
After all, other people’s children are other people’s children. Comparing yourself with others will make you angry, and comparing goods with others will make you throw them away!
Look at Xiaobao, he perfectly illustrates the saying "like father, like son".
Although Xiaobao's good academic performance is inseparable from Xu Yunfan's good teaching, Xiaobao's own efforts and intelligence are equally important.
Fu Qingxu turned around and looked at his two sons who were riding the children's bicycles that Xu Yunfan had specially made for them in the yard, smiling happily. No matter how many points they had in the test, he felt very upset.
The happier they laughed, the more itchy Fu Qingxu's hands became.
When Qin Qingfeng sent Qin An and the other two back, he could still hear loud howling sounds coming from the study next door.
Thinking of this, Qin Qingfeng couldn't help but have a headache, "It doesn't matter if Yun Fan doesn't have time."
Which parent doesn’t want their son to become a dragon and their daughter to become a phoenix?
Qin Qingfeng naturally thought of it too.
Qin Run didn't insist that there was no problem, but just said: "Okay, I'll go back and ask him."
For Xu Yunfan, he doesn't worry about having too much debt, and he doesn't care about having too many lice. Similarly, it doesn't matter whether he releases one cow or two cows.
But after he opened the door for Fu Qingxu once and broke the precedent, even Fu Qingyu began to target him.
After discovering Xu Yunfan's special teaching method, Fu Qingxu went to the palace to talk to Fu Qingyu. Fu Qingyu told Fu Qingxu that Jiang Lanfang had already mentioned this matter to him, but there was no rush. After Xu Yunfan entered the Hanlin Academy, the teaching reform could be arranged openly, so they had to wait a little longer.
Upon hearing this, Fu Qingxu couldn't help but feel sorry for Xu Yunfan. As the saying goes, "the more capable, the more work" and "don't meddle in matters that are not within your jurisdiction". What the ancients said makes sense. Look, Xu Yunfan has been targeted by others before he even takes office. It is truly unprecedented.
After sitting in the carriage for a long time, Xiaobao couldn't sit still anymore and started moving his butt around. "Daddy, my butt hurts a little."
Qin Run smiled and said, "Come here, Daddy will hold you."
Xiaobao immediately jumped down and threw himself into Qin Run's arms, raised his little head, and said softly and cutely, "Thank you, Daddy, Daddy, Xiaobao loves you so much."
Qin Qingfeng on the side couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and pinched Xiaobao's cheek, "Oh, this little mouth, just like your father, has eaten honey, right?"
Xiaobao chuckled, "No, I'm speaking from the heart."
There were a few children in the carriage, chatting and laughing, so it wasn't boring.
On the other hand, Xu Zhifeng and his friends were busy every day, and they didn't know where Xu Yunfan got so many strange things.
He wanted to repair the road, make street lights, hang LED lights, and even make flower petals. He ordered Qi Xiu Ze and the others so hard that they didn't even have time to fart.
They didn't know what a solar street light was, but Xu Yunfan taught them and they installed it.
There are some things that you don't need to ask about, just do it.
As a result of this busy schedule, Qi Xiu Ze's four young masters and Xu Zhifeng, a professional chicken farmer, lost half a pound due to exhaustion.
Finally, the wedding day arrived.
Xu Yunfan got up early in the morning. There was no other way. Today, he was determined to look stunningly handsome.
In the distance, on a clean road, a man in a bright red wedding dress stood with his hands behind his back.
There is no need to say much about the gorgeous words used to describe wedding dresses. After all, anything produced by Xu Yunfan must be a top-notch product.
The guests who came today all knew more or less that the young man who suddenly appeared in the Qin family, and his husband was a handsome young man who was as beautiful as an immortal. After the Master's Competition, countless young men and women were fascinated by him. In the past, they only thought that the so-called immortal man had come to the earth, but it was just the children who were influenced by the atmosphere in the Master's Competition and exaggerated. Now, when they saw him, some of the older men and women's eyes lit up, and they secretly thought that if they were a few decades younger, they would not have any chance with such a handsome young man.
"Yunfan, don't stand here, go away quickly." Fang Peihong and his brothers who were in charge of entertaining the guests were very angry.
With Xu Yunfan standing here, these guys didn't want to leave.
However, some people did linger to look at the bouquets of flowers on both sides. They gathered in twos and threes in front of a large bouquet, stealing glances at Xu Yunfan from time to time. Fang Peihong and others didn't know how to ask them to enter the restaurant. There were too many people here, and the guests who came later would have no way to go.
Xu Yunfan stretched his neck and looked eagerly in the direction of the capital city gate. "Where should I go? Didn't you say that the groom would come to pick up the bride?"
Because the wedding was held in the Food City, Xu Yunfan was supposed to go to Xiao Qin's house to pick up Qin Run. Lord Qin and his companions felt it was troublesome, so they asked Xu Yunfan to wait here.
Qi Xiu Ze and his companions dressed up specially as groomsmen. Unfortunately, Qi Xiu Ze, who used to be one of the best in the capital, was overshadowed by Xu Yunfan, the beautiful flower, and became just a supporting role.
I have to say that they prepared for more than ten days, so the results are naturally extraordinary.
All the people who went to the Food City Restaurant to attend the wedding banquet, whether they were high-ranking officials or wealthy people, were shocked by the scenery before them.
The originally muddy road was paved into a hard and smooth road at some point.
Rows of dazzling red and pink bouquets were placed on both sides of the avenue, with two rows of red balloons hanging on both sides.
From the moment they were halfway out of the city, several military guards stopped everyone and prohibited carriages and horses from passing.
Ahead, the road covered with a large red carpet looked so familiar that even though there was still some distance to go, everyone got off the carriage without complaint.
In front of the restaurant's main door, a lifelike "real" wedding photo, two meters high and two meters wide, became the focus.
Just by looking at this wedding photo, the guests don’t need to ask any questions. Even if they have never seen the couple who are about to get married, they will know who is getting married today.
The names of the groom and the bridegroom were clearly written in golden words on the portrait.
The newlyweds in the portrait are wearing bright red new clothes with intricate golden patterns on them, which symbolize their noble status. The red headband on the husband's head flutters in the wind, his eyes ripple, and the groom with short hair has a smile on his face, as if he is looking at the viewer. One can see the joy naturally revealed in the eyes of the newlyweds at a glance.
In the distance, the sound of rolling wheels could be heard.
The moment the colorful smoke shot up into the sky, the noisy crowd fell silent.
When the big red sedan stopped at the front of the red carpet, the second row of colored fireworks again sounded with thick smoke billowing into the sky.
Inside the sedan, Qin Run was extremely nervous, clutching the wedding gown on his knees with both hands. He could hear loud noises rising to the sky. He wanted to look outside, but he was inside the sedan and according to custom, he could not go out. He could not break the rules.
Just when he was curious and nervous, a voice that was very familiar to him was heard outside the sedan chair. It was Xu Yunfan's subwoofer. Qin Run felt as if his ears were pregnant, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, his back felt numb, and he subconsciously straightened his back.
Xu Yunfan said, "Husband, I'm here to pick you up."
A delicate hand with rosy fingertips lifted the car curtain, and a red sleeve with the same style slowly reached in and slowly stopped in front of her.
At this moment, Qin Run should have been happy and cheerful, but his heart suddenly became sour and bitter.
Everything seemed so dreamy. He was finally going to marry Xu Yunfan and they were no longer just a couple in name only.
Qin Run, with tears in his eyes, moved.
Feeling a familiar touch on his palm, Xu Yunfan curled the corners of his mouth and quickly lifted the curtain with his left hand. He suppressed his ecstatic joy and, regardless of the public gaze, leaned into the sedan chair.
A hot breath hit him in the face. Qin Run raised his eyes and stared at the person in front of him who was holding flowers in one hand and had gentle eyes and eyebrows. His lips moved silently.
He called silently: "Xu Yunfan."
Xu Yunfan's chest was heaving violently, his heart filled with mixed emotions. He couldn't explain his feelings at the moment. He could only stay calm as much as possible. After taking a few deep breaths, he leaned over and placed a lingering kiss on the corner of Qin Run's mouth. He responded softly but forcefully, "I'm here!"
In the past, Xu Yunfan could not understand why some grooms could not help crying when they saw their beloved women walking towards them step by step on their wedding day.
At this moment, Xu Yunfan finally understood.
For the rest of his life, he would no longer be alone.
Whether it is rainy or happy, sweet or bitter, he is no longer alone. He has a lover who will accompany him through the ups and downs and never leave him.
He finally grew up and had another identity, and he would have to shoulder corresponding responsibilities in the future.
For some people, this identity is like a shackle, or like a burden with two families on both ends, weighing heavily on their shoulders. Excessive responsibility often discourages people.
But this responsibility and this identity made Xu Yunfan determined and willing to accept it, because this was something Qin Run gave him. He accepted it with pleasure and enjoyed it.
Joy, emotion, happiness, the sense of responsibility bestowed by another identity... too many indescribable emotions burst out, and since I can't express them, I can only vent them in other ways.
Xu Yunfan's eyes were red. Before she even led her husband out of the bridal sedan, she couldn't help but turned around and wiped away her tears.
Qi Xiu Ze and the others who came over were clapping and cheering, but when they saw Xu Yunfan bursting into tears, they wanted to laugh, but for some reason, they suddenly couldn't laugh.
In this life, how many people can be like Xu Yunfan, where lovers finally get married?
As Lord Qin and his companions laughed, their eyes turned red.
Old Madam Xiao secretly wiped away her tears. There was nothing she could do. Seeing Xu Yunfan crying with joy, she felt distressed.
Second Lord Qin patted Xu Yunfan on the back and said, "Alright, Yunfan, hurry up and bring Runge'er out. It would be bad if we delay. Hengzhi and Feiyu are still waiting. Be good and listen."
They, the elders, were not supposed to be here, but the wedding prepared by Xu Yunfan was so unique that they couldn't sit still, so they ran over.
Not to mention them, the moment the firecrackers sounded, the guests who had already sat down in the restaurant felt as if they were pricked by needles under their buttocks and ran out one after another.
Xu Yunfan hummed in a depressed tone, wiped his tears hastily, and turned back.
Qin Run in the sedan chair waited for a while. It was only a few breaths, but he felt it was unprecedentedly long. He knew that Xu Yunfan must have been crying.
No matter why Xu Yunfan cried, Qin Run felt that he couldn't bear to see her cry.
When Qin Run was led down from the bridal sedan by Xu Yunfan, salutes shot up into the sky again. Everyone turned their heads to look. Qin Run raised his eyes to look at the people around him, and was surprised to meet a pair of red eyes, as if filled with stars in the sky. When these eyes met his gaze, the joy in them almost overflowed, making people unable to help but indulge in it.
"Yunfan... I love you so much!" Qin Run shouted, his sparkling eyes filled with deep love that could not be hidden. He hooked his fingertips in Xu Yunfan's palm, and while the others were attracted by the colorful firecrackers, he gave her a passionate kiss and then left.
Xu Yunfan only felt a scorching heat falling on his face. Although it was only a moment, the temperature belonging to Qin Run was deeply reflected in his senses.
"I love you so much! So much." Xu Yunfan responded, his voice almost choking.
Qin Run said with tears in his eyes: "The time is almost up, we still have to get married."
As for whether he loves her or not, there is plenty of time to talk about it tonight. In bed, by the window, and in every place Xu Yunfan wants, he can repeat the words "I love you" over and over again as long as Xu Yunfan wants to hear it.
"Yeah, I know." Another round of fireworks fell. The other guests were still not satisfied. They looked up at the sky and couldn't come back to their senses for a long time.
Xie Baizhou and the others wiped their faces. Damn, this was all Xu Yunfan had shown. This wedding would be something the guests who came today would reminisce about for months.
But the guests were amazed and even more shocked.
When Xu Yunfan and Qin Run stepped onto the red carpet, white smoke appeared from nowhere and spread everywhere. The group of children could not help but scream non-stop.
"Wow, look, it's the ball, the ball is flying into the sky!"
On both sides of the red carpet, countless colorful bubbles reflecting various colors were flying out. No one knew what was hanging underneath the red balloons, which were slowly floating up in the bubbles.
Hundreds of big red balloons flew several meters into the air and exploded with a very regular bang.
Petals flying all over the sky fluttered down.
"It's Huahua, it's Huahua, Daddy, look! Look quickly!"
They saw it, they saw it, they were watching it intently.
The child, unable to contain himself, stamped his feet with joy and reached out to catch the falling petals, which had already been dried.
The adults were speechless, their mouths wide open, and the falling petals landed on their bodies and faces. Even so, they were still unwilling to lower their heads or look away, staring without blinking. Everywhere they looked, they saw the most magnificent and beautiful scenery they had ever seen.
As the petals fell, two rows of pink balloons floated up again on both sides of the red carpet. This time, the pink balloons exploded, and what fell were no longer red petals, but colorful, red, pink, blue, gold, purple and other small ribbons that floated down.
After the newlyweds Xu Yunfan and Qin Run walked past, several military attendants appeared on both sides of the red carpet, each holding a Gatling bubble machine. They pressed the switch and bubbles flew up to the sky and to the left and right. It was romantic and gorgeous, and attracted the onlookers to exclaim in amazement.
"Bow to the parents~"
"Second bow to heaven and earth~"
"Husband and wife bow to each other~"
"Send to the bridal chamber~"
While everyone was in a state of euphoria, the newlyweds had already completed the process.
After all, a boy is not a woman, so he can go out of the room to entertain guests after going through the formalities.
Xu Yunfan took Qin Run to toast at each table. Xu Yunfan didn't know most of the people who came today, but they knew him.
Qin Run had met quite a few people under the leadership of Lord Qin before. He remembered that many people wanted to help him make connections and introduce him to others.
However, Qin Run rejected all their attempts to matchmake. Some of them even grumbled in private that Qin Run was ungrateful, thinking that as the young master of the Qin family, he fell in love with a man who had nothing.
Without family background and connections, how could a handsome man make a living? In the future, when he met them, he would have to bow and scrape and greet them, feeling inferior to them. He would know that he would regret it.
Now seeing the betrothal gift Xu Yunfan gave to Qin Run and the grand wedding that they had never seen in their entire lives, everyone was filled with envy and jealousy.
Since the wedding was held in the Food City, it was impossible for the Qin and Xiao families to carry the dowry prepared for Qin Run here.
But they saw clearly in the capital that the Qin and Xiao families had prepared boxes and boxes of dowry for Qin Run, so many that they couldn't even count them.
Countless men and young masters who were interested in Qin Run had their eyes red when they saw this scene.
