Chapter 275: Marriage Matters Part 7: There are two "heavenly rules" in life that cannot be violated
At the entrance of the "Wanyutou" hotel, my father, my mother, my sister, Brother Shi, and Lao Xiao stood in a row. After the master and his family got off the car, everyone came forward to hug them.
After not seeing each other for a few years, I shed tears of excitement.
Then, Brother Shi held the master's hand, my mother held the master's wife's hand, and my sister held Sister Li's hand, and they walked and talked as they went to the third floor together.
There's a VIP room on the third floor, very luxuriously decorated. It was my idea to only accept two tables of guests a day, one at lunch and one at dinner.
A waiter was already standing inside, so everyone went inside and first went to the outer living room to rest. The waiter had already laid out the fruit, and as soon as the guests sat down, they were served hot tea.
This time, Master had regained his kingly demeanor, a completely different person from when he was in Shanghai. He asked Shi Ge, "You've come to work here too. Shanhong told me that it seems like you two are inseparable."
Shi Ge smiled and said, "Since you've moved away, it's going to be hard for me to see you. I can't see my master often, but seeing my master's apprentice is also a kind of happiness."
I pointed at Brother Shi and laughed, "You've become slick now."
Lao Xiao took the initiative to introduce himself as someone who came out earlier. The master pointed at Lao Xiao and said, "I know, it was you who brought Shan Hong out. You are Shan Hong's benefactor."
Lao Xiao shook his hands repeatedly: "Shan Hong is my benefactor."
I said, "Lao Xiao, whatever the master says is what it is. From now on, I will call you Brother En."
Lao Xiao said: "Master is our benefactor, we should all call him Master."
I took the opportunity to say, "Master, I have a small suggestion. You are highly respected in Wuxiang, and Mr. Deng has an idea to take you two back to Wuxiang to live. Mr. Deng will pay the majority of the money, and we will contribute a smaller amount to build another Youranju."
Shi Ge said, "Okay, I'll pay."
Lao Xiao said, "I'll go too."
My brother-in-law said, "I'll have one."
The Master's wife and Sister Li were originally chatting with my parents, but were also attracted by these words.
Sister Li said, "Thank you for your kindness. You can stay at my place anyway."
I shook my head and said, "No way. Mr. Deng has land and he's building a few villas in his park. He'll pay the lion's share, and we can chip in a little. Why not? If we want to see Master and his wife, we can get there in no time."
The master's wife didn't say anything, but a happy smile was on her face.
My mother said, "This is the best. When we get old, we'll go back to our hometown. The city is the world of young people. When we get old, we still need to find our roots."
The master shook his hand and said with a smile, "We'll talk about it later, later."
I knew he was embarrassed to agree, but truly wanted to go back. I stopped dwelling on the topic and explained my plans for the next few days. I explained that I was a bit busy, and starting tomorrow, my brother-in-law would be accompanying me full-time to visit several scenic spots in Taiyi Mountain.
Lao Xiao said: "Taiyi Mountain is under my control, and I will be the tour guide."
Shi Ge said, "I'll be the assistant tour guide."
Everyone laughed.
Comrade Wan Shuixiu, who had been busy outside, came in and said, "I'm going to the kitchen to give orders. Master's wife likes light, vegetarian food, so I specially made a few dishes that she likes."
The Master's wife took my sister's hand and said, "My dear daughter."
At this time, the waiter brought a large pot of boiled fish roe and fish head. I asked Master and his wife to take the seat, and everyone else took their seats.
The master looked at the steaming boiled fish head and said with a smile, "I've found the feeling."
I smiled and said, "I'll always remember what you said: having people like Mr. Deng visit, people like Shanhong to chat with, people like Brother Shi to cook for you, and neighbors around to sit with you, that's the best life."
I changed his original words a little bit, and he nodded happily after hearing them.
I said, "President Deng will come this afternoon, and we'll discuss the details of where we'll live. On the day of my wedding, I'll have President Deng announce the news. So many people from Wuxiang are coming. Just listen to the applause."
My master's wife tore off a piece of paper and wiped the corner of her eyes. My father said, "Come, let's raise our glasses and toast to Master, Master's wife, Xiaoli, and her entire family."
Everyone raised their glasses and drank it all in one gulp.
During the meal, we drank to our heart's content and talked and laughed. After we had eaten and drunk our fill, my brother-in-law and I escorted Master and his family to Rising Sun.
On the way, I called Manager Ai and she said, "Okay, I'll meet you at the door."
When the car arrived at Xuri, my brother-in-law was the first to get out and open the door.
I walked with my master's family toward the door. Manager Ai and two attendants wearing sashes, each holding a bouquet of flowers, stood at the door with a smile on their faces.
Several waiters ran to the car and moved the luggage under Gao Xu's command.
Manager Ai beamed, and he led the two women in bowing. "Welcome, respected Master Hongyi and his wife, and welcome, Ms. Xiaoli, to stay at Xuri."
After that, he presented flowers.
Two waiters led the way. Manager Ai introduced himself as he walked, saying to the master, "It is an honor for Sunrise to have you here. During your stay, we will provide you with servant-like service. Please come!"
Our group entered the special elevator.
After escorting Master and his family to the presidential suite, I said, "You guys take a rest first. President Deng will come over at 3 pm, and we'll come back to keep him company."
My brother-in-law and I returned to the 17th floor. I said, "Let's rest here for a while."
I set my phone alarm to wake up at 2:30 AM. I slept in the master bedroom, and my brother-in-law slept in the study. I don't know if it was because I was tired these past few days, but after I got into bed, I fell asleep.
I also had a dream. A new villa was being built. The first floor was being laid. Suddenly, it grew taller and taller like a tree, stretching left and right, and suddenly became a villa. Brother Shi, Lao Xiao and I selected furniture and electrical appliances and directed people to move into the villa.
The living room and study were ready. The master was sitting in the front hall, chatting and laughing with others.
…
The alarm on my cell phone rang, so I got up and woke up my brother-in-law. We washed up, made a cup of tea, and after sitting down, I contacted Mr. Deng, who said he would be there in ten minutes.
After we finished our tea, we went downstairs to greet Mr. Deng.
In fact, I feel a little guilty. After coming to Shangzhou, except for visiting him when I left, I only called him during the holidays. I went back to Wuxiang several times, but never visited him.
After sitting in the lobby for a while, I saw two people coming out of the elevator. It turned out that he and Xiao Liming drove the car to the underground garage.
We shook hands warmly. Then, we accompanied them to the private elevator. As we exited the elevator, the attendant approached. Xiao Liming said, "A suite room."
The waiter immediately understood what was going on and led us to the west end. They opened two doors and Mr. Deng walked into one of them.
As soon as we sat down, the waiter brought us fruit and hot tea.
I smiled and said, "Mr. Deng, I've thought about it for a long time, and I'll pay for the presidential suite."
President Deng looked at me with a smile and said, "Dad's uncle is older than Mom's uncle. Your master can live in the presidential suite, so where will your uncle live?"
I was shocked. President Deng is still the same President Deng. I can never catch up with his emotional intelligence in ten thousand years. Yes, if I let Master live in the presidential suite, my cousin can be persuaded, but based on the personalities of my uncles, won't they just leave and go back to their hometown?
My face flushed, and I bowed, saying, "Always learn from President Deng."
Then I looked at Xiao Liming and said, "You are the happiest person in the world. Following President Deng every day, your way of thinking is improving every day."
Mr. Deng pointed at my brother-in-law and joked, "It's better to follow Shanhong. He has inherited the true teachings of the master."
Xiao Liming pressed the bell and the waiter came in.
He said, "Call Master Hongyi's second bedroom and tell her that there are a few guests next door who want to see her."
Sure enough, Xiao Liming really learned a lot. The second bedroom is where Sister Li lives.
After a while, Sister Li came over and hugged Mr. Deng as soon as she came in. She said excitedly, "I see Uncle Fatty again."
My brother-in-law stood up, but Mr. Deng didn't. He said, "Let the two elders wash up, and then we'll go."
Sister Li went over first. I said, "I've almost mobilized everyone for Master's return to Wuxiang." I then told them that everyone should contribute some money.
He said, "Give me a little bit to buy some furniture and appliances. That will make the old man feel comfortable. But I won't talk about the money later. I'll just go back and live there."
I was shocked. Mr. Deng was criticizing me in a subtle way, saying that I shouldn't have said everything at the dinner table.
Mr. Deng stood up and we followed him to see the master.
The master has already laid out fruits and cakes, and the flowers on the coffee table are blooming beautifully.
Their meeting was not as warm as ours. Mr. Deng and Master stood and bowed to each other, and he shook hands with Master's wife. Everyone sat down and the waiter brought tea.
Mr. Deng first asked about the two elders' health, whether they were airsick, and their impressions of the changes in the state over the past few years. It was just some casual conversation.
After the greetings, Mr. Deng said, "I've recently read a few books written by Mr. Nan Huaijin. The more I read, the more I sweat. I feel like I'm not doing well in some areas."
The master just smiled.
And I have no idea what Mr. Deng is up to.
Mr. Deng said, "Mr. Nan Huai-Chin said that if a person breaks two of the Heavenly Laws, he will suffer a lifetime of misfortunes. The first is not being worthy of one's position. The second is not being grateful."
I wouldn't say my virtue doesn't match my position, but I do observe basic moral principles. I'm not grateful, and I'm not doing well. So I need to fully practice the last four words.
My benefactors are, first, my parents and second, my master. I've done my parents justice, but I haven't done enough for my master. Therefore, I want to take you back to Wuxiang to live. I hope Xiaoli can fulfill this small request, because you've been so kind to my parents. Let me share a little of your kindness with you."
I am really too far away from President Deng. I used to think we were separated by the solar system, but now we are separated by the Milky Way.
The master didn't agree immediately, but only said, "Boss Deng is good, Shanhong is good, and including Xiao Gao, you are all my good friends."
Mr. Deng said, "Xiao Li didn't express her opinion."
Sister Li's face turned red and white, and finally she said, "Let my parents decide. Their happiness is my happiness."
I whispered a few words to Mr. Deng. He nodded and said, "Master, I'll announce this news on Shanhong's wedding day. Many people from Wuxiang have come, and they've applauded enthusiastically. I won't ask for your opinion anymore. If they don't applaud..."
When she said this, my wife's face became a little gloomy.
President Deng said: "This is absolutely impossible."
Everyone burst into laughter.
The master said, "Fugen, you and Shanhong are two people I am close to. I will follow your arrangements."
President Deng led the applause. My brother-in-law, Xiao Liming, and I clapped vigorously.
Dinner was scheduled to be served in the suite. When Mr. Chen heard that my master had arrived, he called and asked about the situation. He did not agree to dine in the suite and insisted on having it on the fifth floor.
The accompanying personnel were decided: Mr. Chen, Lao Xiao, Brother Shi, me, and my brother-in-law. Together with Mr. Deng, Xiao Liming, and Master's family of three, there were exactly ten people.
For the next few days, Mr. Deng and Xiao Liming accompanied Master and his family. My brother-in-law, Yifan, and Lao Xiao helped me entertain the guests. I was completely busy.
October 1st finally arrived. A grand wedding was waiting for everyone to watch.
