Rebirth of the Great Era 1993

Beijing.

When Zhang Xuan and Mi Jian returned to Nanluogu Lane, Mi Pei had already prepared a table waiting for them.

After taking the large and small bags bought by the two, Mi Pei greeted: Go wash your hands and eat.

Zhang Xuanze asked Mi Jian with concern: Do you want to take a rest first?

Mi Jian looked at his confused biological father, smiled and shook his head: I'm not that tired, let's eat first.

Okay. Zhang Xuan washed his hands and went to serve the rice.

The food was rich, so the hungry old man ate two bowls in succession, and finally said to Mi Pei: Uncle's cooking is really good.

Mi Pei smiled, seeing him enjoying his meal, he was undoubtedly happy.

Mi Jian was almost done eating. He took the bowl of soup handed over by Zhang Xuan and drank half of the bowl in small sips. Then he put down the bowl and chopsticks and said to Mi Pei: Dad, let me tell you something.

Mi Pei was eating peanuts and drinking wine, and his ears pricked up when he heard the words.

Mi Jian glanced at Zhang Xuan and said, Dad, I'm pregnant.

What?

Mi Pei's mouth was slightly open, with the half-bitten peanut still on his tongue. He looked up at his daughter blankly, obviously shocked by the news.

Mi Jian said again: You are going to be a grandpa.

Okay, you heard me right, my daughter is really pregnant. Mi Pei realized it this time and subconsciously asked: Zhang Xuan's?

Mi Jian, who was fully prepared, was originally very calm, but when he heard this, his face instantly turned crimson.

Seeing that he had said something wrong, Mi Pei didn't care and asked happily: When did it happen?

Zhang Xuan took over: The doctor said it's almost 2 months.

His eyes wandered over his daughter and Zhang Xuan several times, and finally stopped on his daughter's belly. Mi Pei was in a daze for half a minute, then stood up suddenly and said very excitedly: I haven't called your mother yet. Come on, I’m going to call your mother right now.”

Picking up the phone, Mi Pei dialed a series of numbers skillfully, waited for about 5 seconds, and then shouted excitedly to the other end: Jian Bao is pregnant, yes, you heard that right, Jian Bao is pregnant, come here quickly .”

Zhang Xuan and Mi Jian looked at each other and smiled. They both thought that Mi Pei's reaction would be a little big, but they didn't expect it to be so big.

After the phone call, Mi Pei happily ran to the study and took out a bottle of Maotai wine. It's a happy event. Dad has to drink good wine today.

Zhang Xuan took a cup and said, Uncle, I'll drink with you.

Mi Pei poured him a glass with a smile on his face. After a toast, he came back to his senses and asked his daughter to ask her questions. Today, the almost 50-year-old man became a talkative, but eight out of ten words came to his mind. children.

Mi Jian seemed very patient and answered each question carefully.

To Zhang Xuan's surprise, this father-in-law was very considerate and asked a lot of questions, but never asked about their next plans, such as getting married or naming their children.

He had been waiting to be asked, but found that the other party didn't ask at all, which made him feel a little disappointed but also more happy.

This is the father-in-law in my memory. In his previous life, he only scolded himself too much, and in this life he also doesn't put too much pressure on himself.

To be honest, he felt that he was quite lucky and had a good life: Lao Du and Lao Mi were both very nice people to talk to and get along with.

However, Lao Mi didn't ask about his daughter's lifelong events. Zhang Xuan wanted to give her more and wanted Mi to see happiness. He immediately changed his mind and said, Dad, come here, I'll toast you with another drink.

Mi Pei said Dad and the smile on his face became even bigger. He drank the liquor as water and ran to the bedroom to seal a red envelope for him, saying it was the money to change his mouth.

It is a custom in my hometown in Shao City that when someone changes their name to mom and dad, both parents will symbolically seal a red envelope.

Mi Jian, who had not interrupted and had been watching the two men drinking, asked: Dad, why did you get the red envelope?

Mi Pei didn't hide it: Your mother prepared it during the summer vacation and stuffed it into my bag when she came here. She said it was just in case. I didn't care at the time. I didn't expect to use it so quickly.

After saying that, Mi Pei started to feel happy again.

This night, Mi Pei drank a little too much, but he was very energetic and not drunk. He kept circling around with his daughter as the center. He looked like a slave to his daughter.

After nine o'clock, Zhang Xuan accompanied Mi Jian into the bedroom.

Mi Jianban sat on the bed and said to him: Don't leave tonight, stay here with me.

Hey, okay!

The old man was eager to have it, but he was a little worried: Is this bed too small? I'm afraid I'll roll over and crush you.

Mi Jian smiled pleasantly: It's only been two months now. It's okay. I don't move much when I sleep.

Zhang Xuan blinked, I'm afraid that I like to move, I'm used to it.

Mi Jian looked into his eyes quietly, smiling without saying a word.

He was very thick-skinned and turned a blind eye to this. He lifted the thin quilt and got on the bed from that side, and then he was intimate with her face and neck for a long time.

Mi Jian was not as shy as before. This time he closed his eyes and did not hide. It was not until he was satisfied that he opened his eyes and asked, When will you inform aunt?

Zhang Xuan reluctantly withdrew his hands from the quilt and muttered: What aunt? You have to call me mom.

Seeing that she was unmoved, Zhang Xuan handed over the mobile phone on the bedside: At this point, I'm afraid that she is still playing cards at Teacher Tian'e's house and won't receive the call.

Even so, he still called.

Sure enough, no one answered the phone at home, and Comrade Ruan Xiuqin’s mobile phone had no signal and could not be reached.

I had no choice but to call the canteen next door.

Hey, who's there?

Uncle, good evening. I am Zhang Xuan. Call my mother for me.

Oh, it's our great writer, good evening, wait a minute. Then came Xiu Qin! Xiu Qin! Your Man Zai called back, your billionaire Man Zai called back Got it!

The canteen owner's voice was clear and resonant, and he shouted in dialect. It was very moist and made Mi Jian laugh.

After a while, Ruan Xiuqin trotted over from Teacher Tian'e's house, Manzai, what are you doing at night? Mom just caught two kings and three twos after losing all night. If you are about to turn over, you can take me. Called over.

This mother is in a good mood.

Afraid of being heard by outsiders, Zhang Xuan just said: Mom, please go home. I'll call the home phone number.

Ruan Xiuqin realized that what her son said must be important, so she immediately took out a dollar and put it next to the landline phone, and ran home.

The owner of the canteen shouted from behind: Hey, Ruan Xiuqin, you've lost your money, hey.

Ruan Xiuqin ran to the second floor in one breath. A minute later, the call was connected.

As soon as the bell rang, Ruan Xiuqin quickly grabbed the phone and asked, Man Zai, what's the matter?

Zhang Xuan said: Mom, you have to be mentally prepared.

Ruan Xiuqin's heart skipped a beat and she asked anxiously: What's the matter?

Zhang Xuan said: It's late at night, who do you think I'm with?

Ruan Xiuqin asked: Who are you with?

She wanted to say Shuang Ling casually, but then her mind changed and she thought, eh, that's not right. If she was a Shuang Ling, she wouldn't have asked this question, so she asked tentatively: Where are you in Mi Jian?

Logically speaking, there is no need to test, but this son has too many women, and she can't guarantee that it will be with Mi Jian, maybe with Xi Jian, or with Wen Hui?

Zhang Xuan said: Congratulations, you got the answer right! Let me ask another question, why am I calling your old man at this time?

When Ruan Xiuqin asked this question, she suddenly thought of the vaccination her son had given her during the summer vacation. The answer was ready to come out, and her voice suddenly became faster several times: Mi Jian is pregnant?

Zhang Xuan turned on the voiceover and tilted his head to look at Mi Jian.

Mi Jian accepted the signal and swallowed nervously. After a long while, he shouted: Auntie, good evening.

Hey! Hey! Mi Jian, good evening, good evening.

As soon as she heard the girl's voice, Ruan Xiuqin had basically confirmed it. She was suddenly excited and a little incoherent. It took a long time to sort out her thoughts and asked again: How many months has it been?

Mi Jian said: Two months.

Ruan Xiuqin asked considerately: How is your health? Are you able to eat well?

Ruan Xiuqin seemed to have started talking, and for the next ten minutes she was concerned about Mi Jian's body and all aspects of Mi Jian.

Finally, he said to the two of them, Mom will come over tomorrow morning before hanging up the phone.

After the call ended, Ruan Xiuqin walked around the room more than ten times in a row. Her mood was so high that it was difficult to calm down for a long time.

Thinking of something in the middle, she quickly went downstairs, came to the shrine, burned some paper, lit three incense sticks, knelt on the ground and started talking nonsense, first telling the Zhang family ancestors the good news, and then asking for help. Bless, bless Mi Jian, mother and son, etc.

This night, Ruan Xiuqin never slept well. In the first half of the night, I was so excited by the huge surprise that I couldn't sleep. In the second half of the night, I was worried about how sad the girl would be if the two actors knew about it. Are you still worried that if Lao Du's family gets the news, will they cause trouble? There are also Manzai's other confidante, how will they react if they find out?

Just as Ruan Xiuqin expected, Du Shuangling, who returned to CUHK, first took Zou Qingzhu to give Wenhui a clean break. The three sisters celebrated and had a big meal.

The night started out lively, but later on Du Shuangling completely lost sleep, lying straight on the bed, staring at the ceiling in trance in the dark night.

Coincidentally, Wen Hui, who was sleeping next door, also couldn't sleep. Thinking of everything that happened with him on this bed, thinking of the further intimate contact with him on this bed, thinking of her grandfather's illness, thinking of her guilt for the two actors, thinking of Mi Jian being pregnant, she didn't close her eyes. Pass.

Time passed quietly at 2:30 in the morning. Suddenly, Wenhui sat up. After thinking for a while, she put on her shoes and came to the door of the master bedroom.

Shuang Ling, can I come in?

Ah? Du Shuangling said unconsciously, focused her mind and asked: Huihui, are you still not asleep?

Well, I can't sleep.

Du Shuangling opened the door, pulled her over, smiled and said, I just can't sleep either, let's have a chat with the two sisters.

Both women are smart people, and they both know why they can't sleep?

Wen Hui suggested: Let's drink some wine.

Du Shuangling really wanted to drink to drown her sorrows, so she immediately agreed.

However, the two of them knew how much they drank, so they chose the red wine they drank. Wen Hui, who had almost finished drinking while sitting cross-legged on the sofa, suddenly said: Shuang Ling, you know, I would rather you get pregnant first.

Hearing these sudden words, Du Shuangling was stunned for a while, feeling warm and aggrieved.

The warm thing is that Wenhui still prefers her. She also feels the self-blame and guilt in Huihui's heart, and she also immediately feels that the other party can't help herself emotionally.

What's aggrieved is that she devoted her sincerity to Zhang Xuan, but she still couldn't resist Mi Jian, who was astonished by the time.

At this moment, the two women, who are both fallen from the world, are much closer. At least at this moment, there is less separation between them and more true love between them.

It really goes with that sentence, don’t guess what a woman is thinking.

The night passed, and Du Shuangling and Wenhui, who had been chatting all night, fell asleep.

The two of them did not sleep in the same room and bed as they did in the past. After all, some things just happened. No matter how hard they tried to make up for it and maintain it, there was still a rift that could not go back.

In the afternoon, Wen Hui and Du Shuangling got up almost at the same time.

Seeing the two people coming out, Zou Qingzhu clapped his hands and said, Oh, you two are finally willing to get up. If you don't get up, the hot dishes will become cold dishes.

Du Shuanglingyan smiled and asked, Qingzhu, what delicious food did you make?

Zou Qingzhu curled his lips: See for yourself, I'm sure there will be something you like.

Halfway through the meal, Wen Hui said to the two of them, I'll be leaving in a moment. I'm going to visit my aunt.

Zou Qingzhu asked straightforwardly: Are you coming back?

still coming back? Will you come back with one sentence? The dining table that was lively just now suddenly became a little sad.

The reason why Wenhui came back to CUHK this time was that she really misses CUHK deeply. This alma mater holds so many beautiful memories for her.

Secondly, she still had a hard time letting go of her guilt towards the two actors, so she took the initiative to express goodwill to ease the conflict.

Third, if she misses this opportunity to come to CUHK, Wen Hui is not sure when the next opportunity will appear? So she followed this trend.

Fourthly, Wen Hui knew that he was a little too sharp this time in Berlin, and he felt a little uneasy and anxious in his heart.

Disappointed, so she took a step in the direction that Zhang Xuan wanted to see most to comfort him.

Seeing that Wen Hui was speechless, Du Shuangling, who was thoughtful, smoothed things over and asked, Hui Hui, when are you leaving?

Wen Hui said: I will rest one night at my aunt's house and fly out tomorrow morning. Grandpa's health is getting worse. I have to go back as soon as possible.

Thinking of the old man, Zou Qingzhu deliberately asked Du Shuangling: Shuangling, do we want to go over and visit him.

Unexpectedly, before Du Shuangling could reply, Wenhui spoke up: No, you are busy with your studies and it is not easy to go back and forth. Please stop running around for the time being.

Feeling that her words were blunt, Wen Hui added: I don't know how long Grandpa's body can last. I will call you when the time is right.

As for why Huihui said this, Du Shuangling felt like a mirror and immediately agreed softly.

After four o'clock in the afternoon, Wen Hui arrived at Zhou Yi's house.

At the same time, Liu Yi and Ruan Xiuqin rushed to Nanluogu Lane after receiving the news.

On the way here, Ruan Xiuqin repeatedly confirmed the accuracy of Mi Jian's pregnancy through text messages and repeatedly asked about various details of Mi Jian's pregnancy.

It's not that Ruan Xiuqin is so cautious and suspicious, but she understands that Mi Jian's pregnancy is really closely related.

The old Zhang family now has a big business, and their son is unmarried and has children. Could it be that there are many people secretly coveting him? So now that Mi Jian is pregnant with a full child, it means that the old Zhang family has the next generation of incense and an heir to the property. To a certain extent, this unborn child is destined to attract the attention of all interested people and is destined to become a The old Zhang family's Dinghai Shenzhen.

Ruan Xiuqin knew the affairs of the old Zhang family clearly, and Liu Yi and Mi Pei also saw it thoroughly.

When she learned that her daughter was pregnant with Zhang Xuan's first child, Liu Yi finally let go of the heavy burden in her heart. She knew: everything was stable.

No matter how many confidantes Zhang Xuan has outside, no matter which way his daughter and Zhang Xuan will go in the future, as long as this child is around, the daughter's status will be as stable as a rock. The child is the guarantee of her daughter's life, and also the relationship between the Zhang family and Mi. The bond of home.

It is said that blood is thicker than water. Only with the bond of children can the Zhang family and the Mi family be completely connected, and they can be considered true in-laws.

With the great news of having a child as a buffer, Ruan Xiuqin, Mi Pei, and Liu Yi seemed no strangers when they met for the first time. The three of them exchanged sincere greetings and chatted about the big and small things in the future.

Half an hour passed, and the three elders continued to talk happily, but Ruan Xiuqin was a person who always thought of others. Seeing that Liu Yi and his wife never asked about Zhang Xuan and Mi Jian's arrangements, she knew that she should take action.

She quietly asked her son with her eyes. When she saw Manzai blinking, Ruan Xiuqin asked Zhang Xuan in front of Mi Pei and Liu Yi: Mom has always known that you like to see treasures. She has been thinking about it since high school. Now, Your wish has come true and Jian Bao is pregnant. Do you have any plans next?

Jianbao's family of three are here now. If you have anything to say, let's talk it out. If we don't have a specific plan yet, it's not too late for our two families to discuss it now.

Hearing this, Liu Yi and Mi Pei looked at each other without any trace, and they both breathed a sigh of relief, and a thought came to their mind: This relative is sensible.

Seeing Ruan Xiuqin, Mi Pei and Liu Yi all looking over, Zhang Xuan did not hesitate, reached out and grabbed Mi Jian's right hand, and said: Mi Jian and I checked the almanac last night. Tomorrow is a good day, and we plan to go there. Civil Affairs Bureau.”

Civil Affairs Bureau!

Ruan Xiuqin's mind flashed with the figures of the two actors, but she quickly suppressed this pity thought, clapped her hands and said three good words happily in succession!

After hearing this with her own ears and witnessing this scene with her own eyes, Liu Yi was satisfied, with a smile on her face, looking at her daughter's happy smile. I was secretly thinking: My daughter still has good taste. Although Zhang Xuan is a playboy, he still lived up to his daughter's love after all.

that's enough!

Liu Yi did not dare to further expect Zhang Xuan to guard her daughter wholeheartedly, because this had long since become unrealistic.

Mi Pei is usually a dull person and is not very good at expressing emotions verbally. At this time, he stood up and said, Xiu Qin, are you hungry too? Let's start dinner.

Hey, okay. Ruan Xiuqin stood up and said to Liu Yi, My in-laws have also been running around all day, let's go have dinner.

Liu Yi nodded with a smile, gave way, and then went to the table.

After dinner, Zhang Xuan took the opportunity to ask Mi Jian: Are you nervous today?

Mi Jian shook his head and said with a faint smile, It's not the first time I've met Auntie.

Zhang Xuan was dissatisfied: You still call me auntie now?

Mi smiled and said, I'll change my story after I get my certificate tomorrow.

Zhang Xuan knew that she was more reserved and restrained, so he immediately skipped these words and said, Sister Tao will rush back tomorrow morning, and then we will meet your principal together.

The reason why Tao Ge rushed back was because she wanted to take the two of them to the Civil Affairs Bureau in person. First, she wanted to witness the moment when he got married and started a family, and second, she wanted to use the Tao family's background to teach the people in the Civil Affairs Bureau to shut up.

Zhang Xuan brought up old matters again and asked again and again: Really don't want to hold a banquet? A small banquet will do.

Mi Jian still refused: No, let's call Brother Li and his wife, my cousin, Shi Yu and Bai Ling. Plus Tao Ge and our two families, we can just fill up a big table.

Zhang Xuan understood that Mi Jian’s arrangement had two meanings, one public and one private.

First, I don't want to make a big show of it, so as to save face for him and the two actors.

The second is to call a few trustworthy people as witnesses to prove that the marriage is real and that the child in the belly is not an illegitimate child.

After finding out what she was thinking, Zhang Xuan stopped pressing and just asked, Would you like to call Wei Renjie and Na Wen?

Mi Jian said: Wei Renjie is currently exploring roadbeds in the Yunnan-Guizhou area and will not be able to come back for a while. As for Nawen, it's not that I can't trust her, but she is from Shangcun.

Zhang Xuan immediately understood that Nawen was from Shangcun, and Shangcun was too close to the town and the Du family. What if Nawen let out the news one day, it would be terrible.

Although everyone is mentally prepared for many things, they may not be able to hide them for a long time, but if they can be hidden for a while, it is best to hide them until Shuang Ling graduates from graduate school.

By then the deal is done, even if the old Du family knew about it, they would at most be dissatisfied and depressed in their hearts, but they would never show it on their faces.

Of course, in fact, they are not very afraid of Lao Du's family knowing, but they are afraid that other people will know. People say that people's words are terrible. If rumors form in the society, it will definitely be extremely difficult for Lao Du's family.

In the evening, Tao Ge sent a text message to Zhang Xuan: Sister will be back tomorrow morning.

Zhang Xuan replied: OK.

In the evening, Yuan Mei, who was far away in Shanghai, sent a text message to Wen Hui: Hui Hui, have you settled your matter? Grandpa vomited a lot of blood during dinner and fainted once. As soon as he woke up, he said he wanted to see you.

Wen Hui was having a heart-to-heart talk with Zhou Yi on the balcony. She suddenly received a text message and burst into tears. She quickly called and asked as if she was losing her mind: Are you in a hurry?

Yuan Mei guessed that she had gone astray, It's pretty good now. It's not the most critical moment yet. Otherwise, it wouldn't be me sending you a text message, but my aunt and the others calling you.

But Yuan Mei added in a low voice: But it probably won't last long. This is what the doctor said, so you have to be mentally prepared. I've been with my grandpa these days, and I feel that his mental condition is getting worse day by day, so , I hope you come back as soon as possible and don’t leave any regrets.”

Wen Hui was silent, tears still flowing desperately.

In the evening, Lilith sent a text message to Zhang Xuan: Husband, have you returned to China?

Zhang Xuan glanced at Mi Jian, who was reading a book by the bedside: He's back, he's in the capital.

Lilith asked: I want to come to the capital, is that okay?

Zhang Xuan handed the phone to Mi Jian and politely asked for your opinion. Mi Jian nodded with a smile.

Zhang Xuan texted back: Come if you want, don't ask for permission.

Lilith typed with a smile: I still need to ask for permission. Although I am very familiar with your body, Mi Jian may not be able to bear my intrusion. After all, my body is much better than hers.

Zhang Xuan was speechless: When will you come over?

Lilith replied: I bought a ticket for tomorrow.

Looking at this text message, the old man sighed in his heart, who said Huniu is a tiger? Not bad at all!

He had planned before that when Mi saw what was going on here, he would go to Xijie, then her, and then go to Shudu to find Dong Ziyu. Unexpectedly, this tiger girl was one step ahead and came over on her own initiative.

What are you doing here?

The purpose is self-evident.

Putting down the phone, Zhang Xuan said, Lilith will come over tomorrow.

Mi Jian said yes.

Just when Zhang Xuan put his big hands into Mi Jian's clothes and wanted to pamper her, a voice came from the door.

Ruan Xiuqin shouted softly: Jianbao, are you asleep?

Mi Jian took out his hand, straightened his clothes, and said to the door: I'm not asleep yet. Auntie, come in.

Ruan Xiuqin opened the door and said to her son as soon as she entered: Man Zai, go to the study and read some books. Mom and Jian Bao will say a few words of praise.

You can see treasures when you see them, you can steer by the wind, you can change your mind so quickly. Zhang Xuan muttered a few words of resentment and reluctantly went out.

Mi Jianxiao watched this scene and didn't say anything until the door closed: Auntie, you worked hard today.

Ruan Xiuqin held her hand and said with a smile on her face: It's not hard for me, it's hard for you to be pregnant.

It was not too early, and I was afraid of disturbing Mi Jian's rest. Then Ruan Xiuqin explained the purpose of his visit straightforwardly: I am coming to the capital this time. I want to stay and stay here to take care of you for a while. What do you think?

If her mother-in-law wants to stay and take care of herself, Mi Jian will naturally not object. This is an opportunity to bring the two of them closer, even if it is not for herself, it is for the sake of the children. He mentioned this to me during the summer vacation. I have been looking forward to this. God, I’ve always been craving for your home-cooked food.”

Hey, okay! Seeing Mi Jian sincerely welcoming her, Ruan Xiuqin responded happily: Don't worry, my aunt's craftsmanship may not be satisfactory, but she will definitely do her best to serve you mother and son.

After chatting for a while, Mi Jian brought the topic to the naming of the child.

She said: Auntie, you are the child's grandmother. He said that you are the best at naming the child. Please help him choose a name.

Ruan Xiuqin asked: You and Manzai didn't discuss it?

Mi Jian nodded and shook his head: We have discussed it, but he said that this is the first child of the old Zhang family, and he hopes you will make the decision.

Ruan Xiuqin observed carefully, and after seeing that the words were not polite, he blurted out the word mi.

Mi Jian thought about the connotation of the word mi.

Ruan Xiuqinzi said from the side: To tell you the truth, I have been helping you think of a name for your child since this summer. The word mi represents the spirit of exploration and thinking, and it means auspiciousness.

Moreover, Mi is composed of the prefix 爱 and the word 见 in your name. Zhang Mi represents Zhang Xuan's love for Mi Jian.

In addition, Mi and Mi have the same pronunciation, Zhang Mi and Zhang Mi, so the child’s name happens to be the last name of you two, which is great. Suitable for both boys and girls.

Hearing such a disgusting explanation, Mi Jian's face became a little hot, but he felt that this mother-in-law was very capable and readily agreed.

(Go to eat first and come back for inspection)
