While Jiang Qifeng and his wife went shopping for groceries, Wei Qingfan picked up his cell phone and sent a message to his mother, informing her of the successful resolution so that she would not have to worry about it in the capital.
Wang Shuhua typed slowly, usually speaking. At this time, she probably didn't want Li Wanyi to hear her, so she typed little by little: "Okay. Your dad and I will go there tomorrow."
Wei Qingfan hesitated for a moment and typed: "Her father still has work. He just said that he will go to the capital after finishing his work."
Perhaps because he was too slow to give up, Wang Shuhua sent another voice message. There was no voice-to-text function at this time, so Wei Qingfan had to put it in his ear and heard his mother say: "How can I ask the girl's parents to come over?
It makes sense, not to mention that it was our family’s fault originally. I told your dad that you don’t want to come back today. Your dad and I will go there tomorrow.”
As Wei Qingfan listened, he suddenly felt a little strange. It wasn't his mother who was strange, but Jiang Qifeng.
Jiang Qifeng took the initiative to mention this matter, and also took the initiative to say that he would go to the capital. He did not have the reserve of the girl's parents, nor did he get angry because of the discomfort in his heart... This was so inconsistent with Jiang Qifeng's past character!
Even if you compromise and agree to the marriage, there is no need to be so "active", right?
Jiang Qinghuai noticed his expression and looked at him with a questioning look. Wei Qingfan thought for a moment and said, "My parents told me to come over tomorrow."
Jiang Qinghuai asked: "Isn't uncle still at home?"
Wei Qingfan smiled and said, "We'll come over tomorrow, one from the capital and the other from home. Anyway, there's nothing going on at home now, and dad happens to be going to the capital as well."
Jiang Qinghuai thought for a moment and nodded.
Pang Yingying smiled and said: "I'm so envious, they are already discussing marriage."
Jiang Qinghuai smiled and said, "You can get married if you want!"
"Forget it, I'd better wait another two years."
Pang Yingying is a little worried. She has been dating her boyfriend for a year and feels that everything is going well and that she can move forward with marriage. However, the pressure of reality is in front of her. We must work together, otherwise her boyfriend alone wants to settle down in the provincial capital.
I didn’t know it was the year of the monkey and the month of the horse.
Jiang Qinghuai rolled his eyes at her, then moved closer to Wei Qingfan and said, "I'll tell Auntie."
Wei Peng and Wang Shuhua took the initiative to come over to discuss their marriage. Jiang Qinghuai was very happy and wanted to settle down as soon as possible to avoid long nights and dreams.
Although the probability is approximately zero, what if dad regrets it again?
Jiang Qifeng and Yu Xiurong came back soon. Wei Qingfan and Jiang Qinghuai talked about the matter. Jiang Qifeng was silent for a while, but Yu Xiurong smiled and said: "It's better to settle things earlier or prepare earlier. The wedding is not a trivial matter.
, it’s quite complicated.”
While she was talking, Jiang Qinghuai's cell phone rang several times in succession. She was a little strange. When she picked up the phone, she was immediately dumbfounded.
Wei Qingfan asked curiously: "Who sent it?"
"Miao Miao."
Jiang Qinghuai was angry and funny. While typing a reply, he explained to Wei Qingfan, "She is choosing a wedding dress for me."
"..."
Wei Qingfan was also a little funny. This kind of thing was certainly not strange for Miaomiao, but he felt that it was more likely that Miaomiao was using Qingqing as a test subject and continued to collect the specific effects of different styles of wedding dresses, so that he could wait for her
I have more experience when I get married.
"Li Miaoyu?"
Pang Yingying was a little surprised, "I actually chose a wedding dress for you? We have such a good relationship?"
Jiang Qinghuai has said more than once that she has a very good relationship with Li Wanyi and Li Miaoyu, but Pang Yingying has always been skeptical about this... Please, are you love rivals?
In novels and TV shows, there will be "imperial battles". No matter how good the relationship is, how much better can it be?
"She wants me to help her try on wedding dresses."
Jiang Qinghuai curled his lips, but couldn't hide the smile on his face. He let out a slight sigh and typed a reply: "I don't want it, I want to choose it myself."
Li Miaoyu: "These are very beautiful, don't you believe my vision?"
Jiang Qinghuai: "Believe it, I believe whatever you choose is what you like."
Li Miaoyu: "You must also like what I like."
Jiang Qinghuai: "Is there something wrong with your head?"
Li Miaoyu: "You're the one who's in trouble, stupid woman!"
Li Miaoyu: "Ignore you."
Li Miaoyu: "Humph!"
The two bickered for a while, and Li Miaoyu said again: "Auntie is going to the provincial capital, can I go with you?"
Jiang Qinghuai: "What are you doing here?"
Li Miaoyu: "I am also considered my mother's family!"
Jiang Qinghuai replied angrily: "Get out!"
Li Miaoyu: "Then I'll just consider my husband's family. We are all one family anyway."
Jiang Qinghuai: "I can't control this. You go and tell Auntie."
Li Miaoyu: "If aunt agrees for me to go, will I still come to you?"
Jiang Qinghuai: "It's useless for you to look for me."
Jiang Qifeng came out of the kitchen and saw Wei Qingfan talking to Pang Yingying, but Jiang Qinghuai was typing on his mobile phone with a smile on his face. He couldn't help but feel a little strange. He coughed and asked, "Why are you playing with your mobile phone?"
"I'm chatting with Miaomiao."
Jiang Qinghuai then put down his cell phone and recounted what Li Miaoyu said with a smile. Pang Yingying couldn't help but laugh out loud and said, "Why is she here when you get married?"
"She's like this, not wary of anyone."
Jiang Qinghuai smiled and said, "Last time my senior got married, she wanted to be the bridesmaid. She pestered her for several months, but she didn't agree and was angry... Fortunately, she didn't say she wanted to be my bridesmaid this time."
Jiang Qifeng looked at his daughter's unconscious smile when she spoke, and seemed a little surprised. Like Pang Yingying, he couldn't believe how good his daughter's relationship with Li Wanyi and Li Miaoyu could be, but looking at his daughter's expression at this time, it seemed that he was indeed
good relationship.
"I really don't understand..."
Pang Yingying couldn't understand, she glanced at Wei Qingfan again, then shook her head and said with a smile: "I really envy Mr. Wei~"
"Fortunately, you said you envied me..."
Wei Qingfan was startled and complained secretly in his heart. If he had just said "I'm so envious", who knows Jiang Qifeng wouldn't have misunderstood.
Pang Yingying went to the kitchen to help, and the remaining three people sat in front of the sofa. Jiang Qinghuai continued to chat with Li Miaoyu, laughing the whole time. Wei Qingfan and Jiang Qifeng looked at each other in silence, looking a little embarrassed.
"How is your uncle's health lately?"
It was not convenient to ask about work matters, so I had to focus on my health and life. Wei Qingfan took the initiative to find a topic, "You and auntie should pay more attention to taking care of your health."
"fine."
Jiang Qifeng nodded, not intending to talk more, but after a pause, he also found a topic and said: "Can you play chess?"
"Uh... yes, yes."
Wei Qingfan felt a little guilty. After living together for such a long time, a few people would occasionally play chess. Among the four of them, he was the best at Go. He looked around at chess and Jiang Qinghuai was basically the first, but occasionally gave way to Li Wanyi.
, Li Miaoyu, it seems that there is a winner and loser for each other.
Jiang Qinghuai said that he learned it from Jiang Qifeng...
Now that we have to play chess, it would be strange if Wei Qingfan didn't feel guilty.
Jiang Qinghuai paid more attention, looked at Wei Qingfan and raised his eyebrows at him with a smile, as if he was gloating about his misfortune.
There was no shame in losing to his father-in-law, so Wei Qingfan went all out, calmed down his mentality, acted black first, and made quick moves.
Jiang Qifeng took his time and took his time, but after winning more than twenty hands, Wei Qingfan quickly noticed something was wrong:
Why does Jiang Qifeng's chess skills seem to be so much worse than Jiang Qinghuai's, yet he seems to be on par with himself?
Jiang Qifeng obviously noticed that Wei Qingfan was "not weak in chess" and was actually on par with him. He seemed a little surprised. He glanced at Wei Qingfan, then thought for a while, continued to make moves calmly, and continued fighting in the corner.
Jiang Qinghuai, Li Wanyi, and Li Miaoyu despised Wei Qingfan's behavior of always fighting close to each other when playing Go. They thought it was a "novice" and "little way". At this time, when they saw Wei Qingfan and Jiang Qifeng pecking each other, they were surprised.
He seemed to find it interesting again and looked on with a smile.
After a while, Jiang Qifeng was stumped and hesitated whether to take the initiative to eliminate the calamity. Wei Qingfan took the opportunity to glance at Jiang Qinghuai and gave him a questioning look.
Jiang Qinghuai pursed his lips, smiled, and blinked, meaning something like: I learned chess from my dad, but I didn’t say he was better than me!
Wei Qingfan was speechless and continued to fight with his father-in-law for more than 40 minutes. Wei Qingfan lost two pieces after keeping his eyes open.
Jiang Qifeng seemed to be relieved, nodded, and said with a master-like smile: "Don't be discouraged. You are pretty good at chess. You are quite powerful. You should be better than Qingqing, so there is a gap."
When he spoke, he looked like a master of chess, and his comments were very precise and detailed.
Wei Qingfan almost choked to death on his own saliva. He tried hard to keep his expression tight and prevent himself from laughing out loud. He said very modestly: "No, no, Qingqing is still better than me."
Jiang Qifeng glanced at his daughter, and Jiang Qinghuai raised his head and smiled a little proudly: "I will also grow up, don't always treat me like a child."
Jiang Qifeng seemed a little emotional, coughed, and with a rare smile on his face, nodded and said: "Good progress, we are about to get married...pack your things and get ready to eat."
"Um."
After clearing the chessboard, washing hands and eating, Jiang Qifeng took a bottle of rice wine and asked Wei Qingfan: "Are you used to drinking it?"
"I'm used to drinking."
Wei Qingfan nodded. He preferred low-alcohol wine, beer, rice wine, fruit wine, or wine. He disliked white wine the least. He drank a few glasses with Jiang Qifeng.
After just getting along with each other, Jiang Qifeng's attitude has softened a lot. Although he is still not enthusiastic, he no longer ignores Wei Qingfan and even raised a glass on his own initiative.
Although there is a house in the provincial capital, no one lives there, and Wei Qingfan cannot live in Jiang Qinghuai's house. After having a conversation here after dinner, Wei Qingfan found an excuse to go to the provincial capital branch to inspect, and met with Jiang Qinghuai.
Leave together.
It wasn't all an excuse. He asked the driver to pick him up, and he and Jiang Qinghuai actually went to the branch for a walk, including warehousing and after-sales.
Pang Yingying called and asked them to go home for dinner in the evening. Naturally, Wei Qingfan would not refuse. He looked at the hotel on the way and found it was not far away, but it was inconvenient for him to walk on the street, so he left the car behind.
After visiting the hotel, he took Jiang Qinghuai home. After dinner, he did not stay and went back to the hotel by himself, while Jiang Qinghuai stayed at home.
Jiang Qinghuai took a bath without washing his hair, which saved him a lot of trouble. He dried Pang Yingying's hair and while he was talking, there was a sudden knock on the door, and then Yu Xiurong walked in with a fruit plate.
"Mom~"
Jiang Qinghuai greeted with a smile, and Yu Xiurong smiled, walked over, put down the fruit plate, and motioned for them to eat.
Jiang Qinghuai gave up the chair and sat on the bed. He noticed that Yu Xiurong's expression was different. He thought for a moment and asked in a low voice: "Mom, do you have something to say?"
She originally thought about whether to talk to Pang Yingying and whether she should avoid it, but then she realized that this was her room.
Yu Xiurong seemed to think about it for a moment, and then said: "Your dad went to take a shower. Let me make a story short, you..."
She hesitated to speak, and Jiang Qinghuai became even more confused and said with a smile: "You still want to hide it from my dad?"
Pang Yingying urged: "Then tell me quickly."
Yu Xiurong sighed, looked at Jiang Qinghuai and said, "Have you noticed that your dad has been coughing a lot lately?"
Jiang Qinghuai was stunned for a second and then thought for a moment, "It seems a bit...what exactly do you want to say?"
Her heart was raised, and she opened her eyes and stared at Yu Xiurong.
Yu Xiurong said softly: "Last summer, your dad came back from a business trip. Maybe he was too tired there and didn't get a good rest. When he got home, he turned on the air conditioner again. He had a slight cold and kept coughing. He didn't feel well after that, Yingying.
She urged us to go for a physical examination, but then she got tired of it and went..."
Pang Yingying said: "Isn't everything normal?"
Yu Xiurong glanced at her, and then said to Jiang Qinghuai: "Your dad found out that something is not very good. There is..." in his lungs.
She paused, and under Jiang Qinghuai's nervous gaze, she comforted softly: "Don't worry, it's early."
"..."
Jiang Qinghuai was stunned for two seconds, but what suddenly flashed through his mind were the several "fights" he had had with his father in the past six months due to matters with Wei Qingfan, and his often compromising attitude that was beyond his expectations...
And at noon, the stepmother suddenly mentioned Liu Yubing and asked her to tell Liu Yubing about her pregnancy and marriage...
When her mind went blank, she heard Pang Yingying ask nervously: "What early period?"
Yu Xiurong stretched out a hand, patted the back of Jiang Qinghuai's hand, and whispered: "Lung cancer, stage 2a, is considered early stage. The doctor said it can be cured. Many people have been cured."
