When Qi Lian was attending an academic conference, he met a very familiar person. He was a professor from T University across the Taiwan Strait, and his surname was Rong. He was about the same age as Rong's father. He looked like the grandfather Rong Wan carved out of a mold.
Qi Lian had seen the old photos of Rong's family and heard Grandpa Rong talked about his half-brother. He said that he had gone to the other side of the Strait with his wife and daughter a long time ago, and he had not heard from him for many years. That niece is about the same age as Grandpa Rong. If we get married and have children at a normal age, the son is likely to be Professor Rong's age.
Maybe this is just a coincidence, but in case, what if Professor Rong is indeed a relative of Rong's family who has been separated for many years, it would be a shame to miss it so.
Under Qi Lian's deliberate friendship, the two quickly became acquainted with each other. Professor Rong admired Qi Lian very much, and felt that this young man was outstanding and talented. Qi Lian also felt that some of Professor Rong's research ideas were very advanced, and the two of them had really become friends in these short days of exchanges.
Before Qi Lian asked about Professor Rong's family background, Professor Rong first told him, he wanted to ask Qi Lian to help, to help his relatives in mainland China who had lost contact for many years.
Professor Rong's grandfather was a general of gmd. He retired to tw with the army. He lost contact with his relatives in the mainland until his death. He had been talking about the return of fallen leaves until his death. Unfortunately, he did not see the unity of mainland and tw and passed away with regret.
"He kept talking about going home and going home, but he didn't get what he wanted, but he told his children and grandchildren, no matter how long, he must be taken back to Taoyuan Village." Professor Rong said, his eyes flushed again. "It's just because of various reasons, it hasn't been realized so far."
"Taoyuan Village..." Qi Lian was excited, but did not show on his face, "My fiancee's family is from Taoyuan Village, whose surname is Rong. Her grandfather went to tw many years ago and there is no news yet. I watched it at her house. I've been to an old photo, you are very similar to her grandfather."
"Then... yes, it should be!" Professor Rong stood up excitedly, his hands trembling slightly, "I didn't expect such a coincidence in the world."
However, there are some problems with the names of Grandpa Rong. Professor Rong's grandfather told Professor Rong that he has a younger brother named Rong Deshan, but Grandpa Rong's name is not.
Based on the photos Qi Lian said and the name Taoyuan Village, Professor Rong was willing to believe that they were his relatives, and he wanted to visit Taoyuan Village. It's just that he can only book tickets for the next day, and cannot travel with Qi Lian and the others.
After thinking about it, Qi Lian decided to postpone his return one day. When he called Rong Wan to talk about this, he also asked about Grandpa Rong's name by the way to see if he had changed his name. Rong Wan asked Grandpa Rong, he did change his name, his original name was Rong Deshan.
"But Brother Qi, what do you ask this for?" Rong Wan said his question.
"I want to ask for proof of a very important matter. When I go back, you will know it." Qi Lian didn't tell the matter, so he didn't let the Rong family be in a hurry.
"Well, then I'll wait for you to come back!" Rong Wan didn't get to the bottom, and waited until Qi Lian came back.
After the conversation between the two of them was over, Professor Rong asked anxiously who was in the Rong family and how they were living. Qi Lian told him one by one, of course, he had the most ink on Rong Wan. Listening to Qi Lian's description, Professor Rong outlined the life of Rong's family, especially Rong Wan. In Professor Rong's mind, she was a beautiful, sensible, gentle and considerate girl.
"I really can't wait to see the little girl!" Professor Rong said with a laugh. His mother had two sons, and he and his younger brother each had a son after they were married. The younger sister is one year younger than her son, so she can be raised as a daughter.
"Xiao Qi has the best temper, and you will definitely like her." Qi Lian said, with a strong sense of pride in his words.
"But Xiao Qi is only so old, why did he get engaged? Our Rong family's daughter can't get married early!" Professor Rong has begun to worry about the marriage late before he recognizes his relatives. I used to think that Qi Lian was a rare young talent, but now I always find something wrong.
"...We two have a very good relationship, and we will get married when Xiao Qi graduates!" Qi Lian's face turned black after hearing Professor Rong's words. It suddenly occurred to him that if the people on Professor Rong's side also loved Xiaoqi like a treasure like the Rong family, then it would be even more difficult for him to hug a beautiful woman early!
"What age is it now, why marry so early? Don't worry, don't worry!" Professor Rong said.
Look, I knew it would be like this! Qi Lian thought helplessly.
After returning to the imperial capital, Professor Qi Lian and Professor Rong did not go to rest first, but rushed to the Rong Family Compound without stopping.
"Brother Qi, are you back?! I have prepared your favorite food, and I will pick you up." After seeing Qi Lian, Rong Wan smiled brighter than the blooming flowers, and was about to hold hands with Qi Lian. I saw Professor Rong who was blocked by Qi Lian, "This is..."
There were doubts and hesitations in her eyes, her thoughts made a mess in her mind, her red lips trembled, and she didn't speak out the possibility that emerged in her mind.
"It's Qi Lian who is back? Why don't you enter the house!" Grandpa Rong also came out of the main house at this time, saying kindly.
"San Ye, I'm Rong Nian, the grandson of the Rong family's virtue and talent, come to find relatives!" Professor Rong already had tears in his eyes at this time, and he was about to kneel down two steps forward. When he said the name Rong Decai, the iron ball in Grandpa Rong's hand fell to the ground twice.
I have been looking forward to it for so many years, and I have been disappointed for so many years. Later, Grandpa Rong also understood that his elder brother, who was so much older, should be dead. But after all, he still has this thought. One day, his descendants will take him back to Taoyuan Village and return to his hometown. He heard the name of his eldest brother today, and he didn't need to say anything, he was already in tears.
Although I was sure that the one in front of me was the descendant of my eldest brother, there was absolutely no ambiguity about what I should ask. He also took out all the old photos of his family, and Professor Rong also took out the photos of his grandfather and his mother that he took with him.
Yes, it is right, separated for many years, and finally reunited.
"My grandfather kept talking about going home before he died, and he said he was sorry for you, so you had to support the whole family at a young age!" Professor Rong wiped away the tears, his voice still choked.
"Big brother, why is he sorry to me? It's not what he wants to do, but I am sorry that he has not been able to return to the roots of the leaves!" When Grandpa Rong spoke, his lips were trembling, and his tears were hazy.
"We will follow my grandfather's wishes and let him return to his hometown." Professor Rong said, "I have told my family before coming here, they will fly straight from tw, and then our family will really be reunited."
"Okay, okay, good to come back, good to come back!" Grandpa Rong patted the Eight Immortals table twice with excitement, "I will take you home and have a look at that time, our Taoyuan Village is no longer the same!"
The uncle Rong family had only one daughter, and later recruited a handsome son-in-law who had no father and no mother from the mainland. At that time, the negotiation was made. The eldest son was named Rong and the second son was named Chen. Son-in-law Chen and Elder Rong family have a deep affection, and they respect Grandpa Rong's family as their father. The whole family has a sense of belonging to Grandpa Rong's hometown, Taoyuan Village. When they learned that Grandpa Rong had already been there, they stayed up all night excitedly, booked the earliest air ticket, and wanted to come over earlier to see their relatives.
"Come on, meet your brother, this is your elder brother!" Grandpa Rong calmed down his emotions and called Rong Huan, Rong Le and others at home to them and introduced them "This is my elder brother's grandson, you Call Big Brother!"
"Hello, big brother!" The Rong family brothers and sisters said in unison, with an extremely respectful attitude.
"Okay, okay, brothers and sisters!" Professor Rong said again and again, all kinds of tastes agitated in his heart, of course the main thing was happiness.
After Grandma Rong, who had gone out for a walk, came back, there was a turbulent explanation. Grandma Rong couldn't help wiping her tears. In the end, everyone persuaded her to show her smile.
"Cry or cry, I should be happy, Rong Nian finally found a home today, if my eldest brother is here, he will be happy too!" Grandpa Rong muttered.
"Yes, aunt and uncle will be here soon, we will be reunited as soon as we have a family, we can't cry like this." Rong Wan gently shook grandma's arm and said softly.
"Well, listen to you!" Grandma Rong gently patted the back of Rong Wan's hand, with a kind smile on her face.
"My little brother and I are the most rare daughters, but they don't have this blessing. Now there is a little girl who can hurt, it is God's favor!" Professor Rong said with a smile, and the girl with a beautiful face and a sweet smile in front of him had sketched it in his mind. Many times the image of the daughter overlapped, and the smile became more and more fatherly. If his son Rong Yan were here, he would be stunned. He had never seen his father with such a soft expression when he grew up.
"Qi Lian, thanks to you for this! Grandpa gave you a credit!" Grandpa Rong did not forget Qi Lian's contribution, cleared his throat, and said something solemnly.
"Grandpa, this is what I should do!" Qi Lian responded, "Little Qi's business is my business."
"San Ye, I heard Qi Lian say that he and our Xiao Qi are already engaged, right?!" Professor Rong asked.
"Uh... for sure... so!" In fact, Grandpa Rong wanted to blow his beard and stare at him and said that it was not because they were only talking about the relationship between the two of them. But after all, the biggest project of the Rong family reunion was Qi Lian. After the demolition of the platform, he was a little unable to do it, so he recognized it with an awkward expression.
"San Ye, Chen Si and I managed to get such a baby sister. We haven't had time to do anything for my sister. Why would you be willing to marry her to someone else's house early? It's better to stay at home for a few years and enjoy being hurt by family members? In the days of spoiling, she is still young anyway!" Professor Rong said. His remarks were very close to Grandpa Rong's thoughts, and Grandpa Rong couldn't help but bloom, and took a few shots of his thighs to say yes.
"Yes, brother wise!"
"Big Brother is right!"
"Support Big Brother!"
For a while, the Rong family and the brothers were all excited, and they expressed their support for the eldest brother in words.
Qi Lian didn't know what kind of expression he could put on in addition to his expressionless face to face this growing group of gangsters. It was said that the year-end pay was so cleanly and crisply that I stabbed myself! I can't be more worried!
