When mentioning Qian Beijiang, Qian Jiujin fell into memories.
His father had handed the group over to him as early as he came of age, saying he wanted to fulfill his youthful dreams and didn't want to be tied down by work.
But he died young, when he was only in his fifties.
At that time, Lu Guansheng had just been born and passed away without even seeing him.
Qian Jiujin couldn't understand why Lu Guansheng became curious about his father.
"What do you want to ask me?" Qian Jiujin asked.
"I want to ask what kind of person Grandpa is? And how much do you know about his friendship with Grandpa?"
"This?" Qian Jiujin thought for a moment, "As far back as I can remember, my father and Mr. Lu have been close friends.
“I heard that they met in college, and every time they came, they would go to the study to have a private chat for a while.
"As for the rest, I really don't know much. Maybe my mother will have the answer."
"Grandma?" Lu Guansheng had only met Madam Qian once, and that was during the Chinese New Year.
Since Qian Beijiang passed away, Old Madam Qian has lived in seclusion in the old house.
He eats vegetarian food and chants Buddhist scriptures, and has no interest in worldly affairs. Apart from burning incense a few times a year, he doesn't like to go out.
Qian Jiujin had persuaded her to move into Qian's house and live with him a few years ago, but after being rejected several times, he gave up.
Qian Jiujin made a phone call to report, and only after the old lady agreed did he take Lu Guansheng to the old house.
It was a quiet villa and it was difficult to land a helicopter, so we drove there.
Different from modern buildings, this is a simple two-story building surrounded by green gardens, making the building appear and disappear.
There is no video doorbell at the garden gate, but an old-fashioned doorbell button.
A few minutes after ringing the doorbell, an old man dressed in blue dyed cloth came to the front of the yard and opened the door.
Although the old lady is very old, her spirit and temperament are not weak at all. Every step she takes shows the demeanor of a lady from a noble family.
"Please sit down!" Madam Qian led them into the living room. On the coffee table in front of the mahogany sofa, a pot of boiling water was already heated. "I don't have many people here, so I only need to clean up a pot."
What the old lady meant was: I don’t have any coffee.
"Grandma, I love tea. If you don't mind, please let me, your grandson, make the tea?" Lu Guansheng's tone was gentle and sincere, and his attitude was very respectful.
The old lady was a nonconformist, so she made a gesture of "please".
Tea is about the Tao, silence is about contemplation, and no one speaks.
After respectfully presenting a bowl of tea, Lu Guansheng finally explained his purpose: "Grandma, I want to know something about Grandpa and Grandpa's past. I wonder if I should ask."
"Beichuan, Nancheng..." Madam Qian chewed over the two names. "Where do you want me to start? How much time do I have?"
"If Grandma doesn't mind, I'd like to start from the beginning. I have plenty of time, there's no rush."
Old Lady Qian glanced at Qian Jiujin, as if to test his true intentions. When she saw her son nod, she started talking.
"I knew Beichuan and Nancheng the year I entered university..." Old Madam Qian began to tell the story of their older generation.
Madam Qian's name was Zheng Jue. When she first entered school that year, she heard that there were two talented men in the class above her: Qian Beijiang and Lu Nancheng.
Qian Beijiang is bold and avant-garde, with a great popularity, while Lu Nancheng is reserved, intellectual, and has a strong scholarly air.
Everyone's eyes were on the two of them, and unsurprisingly, Zheng Jue's attention was also attracted by them.
He fell in love with Qian Beijiang at first sight.
It's a pity that these two talented men were both in love with their classmate Sui Tang, who was also known as the "cold and talented woman" at that time.
"Sui and Tang?" Isn't this...
"Yes! It's your grandma!"
Lawrence Lu didn't ask any more questions, just nodded and continued listening.
Qian Beijiang and Lu Nancheng, it seems, are acquaintances who have never known each other before. In order to attract the aloof Sui Tang, they secretly compete with each other in everything.
In this way, they went from being together to attract Sui Tang's attention to being good brothers who were together all the time.
The two of them can fight with each other and slander each other, but if others cause trouble for them, they will become a tight rope to protect each other!
"Friendship between men is really strange!" the old lady sighed sincerely.
"Why is it strange?" Lu Guansheng felt that there was a story and gossiped.
“People of our generation all loved reading online novels.” Old Madam Qian laughed and complained about her youthful days, “Back then, my husband was a well-deserved representative of the second male lead!”
It turned out that Sui Tang had always been interested in Lu Nancheng. So the year she graduated, it was natural for her to get together with Lu Nancheng.
Qian Beijiang not only did not develop a rift with Lu Nancheng and break up with him, but instead blessed them.
To put it clichédly, the bold and confident Zheng Jue took advantage of the situation and became Qian Beijiang's sweetheart and bitter bucket.
After all the bitterness was poured out, only the sweetness of companionship remained between the two people, and they finally got together.
"Grandma, you said they got together. How did they get together? Are they like-minded?"
"Like-minded?" The old lady shook her head. "Beijiang loves technology, and Nancheng only likes archaeology. How can they be like-minded? They have absolutely no connection!"
"That's the opposite, right? How come my father likes technology, and Mr. Lu likes archaeology?" Qian Jiujin was also hearing the story of the previous generation for the first time, so he asked.
"Maybe God got them mixed up when they were reincarnated?" In any case, Zheng Jue was definitely not wrong.
I remember that at that time, Qian Beijiang's science club wanted to design a robot, and he forced Lu Nancheng to join the club to work together.
