Chapter 368 Unconditional Belief in Dad
Taking photos is not difficult.
Because it was a temporary decision and the venue was chosen arbitrarily, the main purpose was to catch people by surprise.
Even though there were many spies near the village, they would move to another place after each shot. Before others had a chance to report the information, he had already finished shooting.
What I fear most is the kind of thing that needs to be decided several days in advance and in a fixed occasion.
Jiang Yiling has a lot of nice clothes, but he rarely wears them at home.
After hearing what Li Yuan said, she immediately became interested.
As for where to go? It doesn't matter.
This season is just right, you can go anywhere for fun.
So, the next day, the two of them took their children out.
They had a lot of cars, so they let the bodyguard drive Li Yuan's car to Jiangzhou first, and the two of them got in another car and left the village.
Jiang Yiling cherishes every opportunity to go out, because such opportunities become fewer and fewer as time goes by.
She doesn't have too many restrictions. Even if someone wants to target Li Yuan, it is unlikely that they will attack her. That would be meaningless and would only completely infuriate Li Yuan.
It is unlikely that Li Yuan will leave the village...
After such a long time, the layout around the village has been completed, leaving basically no chance for others.
Others probably don’t have the opportunity to take photos with Li Yuan alone.
After playing for three days, Jiang Yiling still felt a little unsatisfied, but they had to go back.
Because I just received a phone call from home saying that an old man in the village passed away.
He is also the third master with the highest seniority in the village.
Li Yuan seldom communicates with his third grandfather because of the huge generation gap. Usually it is Li Wanhe who comes to the table, or Li Yuan's grandfather who comes to the table.
The departure of the Third Master in the previous life represented the official severance of the former village ties.
But now, what needs to be solved has been solved.
As for the remaining unresolved interests, they have been completely tied together. They will never betray the interests given by Li Yuan.
Everyone knows that their value lies in being tied to Li Yuan, not in themselves.
Giving them hundreds of millions or billions to betray Li Yuan? It's not worth it.
They can earn this money in just a few years.
Give tens of billions or even hundreds of billions?
You have to be alive to spend it.
Something happened to Li Yuan, how could they get the money?
After Li Yuan came back, he first kowtowed to the Third Master, and then was called aside by He Jianchuan.
He Jianchuan is the great-great-grandson of the Third Grandfather, and he was by his side during his last moments.
He Jianchuan's face was very calm. The Third Grandpa was already a hundred years old. There was nothing sad about him leaving at this age.
Moreover, in the past two years, the third master has enjoyed all the blessings he has never had in his life, and he has no regrets in his heart.
"Yesterday, my grandfather felt that the time was almost up, and he asked someone to inquire about you. When he found out that you were not here, he didn't let me tell you."
Li Yuan nodded.
He Jianchuan continued, "Before leaving, Grandpa said that although many outsiders came to the village, during the holidays, he felt the atmosphere of more than ten years ago. It's not that he didn't know about it, but he was powerless and could only watch the affection in the village slowly fade away."
"Well, if there is no benefit, it is difficult to maintain the relationship."
"Yes, Grandpa couldn't figure it out before, but he figured it out before he left. The southern clans are linked by interests, so they can work together. We don't have enough appeal, and the system we formed back then was relatively loose. With the changes of the times, it has become vulnerable. Fortunately, you are here. Before Grandpa left, he asked me to give you his walking stick."
The so-called crutch is just a wooden stick that the old man has been using for decades.
It may be worth some money, but no more than three hundred, and its value lies in the material.
Li Yuan was silent for a while, then asked, "Have you notified Hou Wenbin and the others?"
"Not yet. After all, they haven't officially moved in yet, and they're not familiar with Grandpa..."
"Notify them and ask them to put down what they are doing and come over."
"good."
After Li Yuan returned, he had a conversation with several elders.
Gao Ming came in a hurry and left in a hurry, because anything that Li Yuan had to attend in person had to be done by him personally, as he would not trust others.
I must eat at noon today.
Zhou Juan and others can act as chefs, but the ingredients need to be prepared skillfully.
Basically, he is responsible for the logistics of the entire village, not only the big supermarket at the entrance of the village, but also several vegetable greenhouses and five or six small farms about a thousand meters behind the village.
Half an hour later, Hou Wenbin and his people started to arrive one after another.
Some are in Qinghe County, and some are a little far away. Even if you buy tickets now, you may not be able to get there by noon.
The people who came first kowtowed to the Third Master, and then helped prepare lunch according to Li Yuan's arrangements.
I can’t cook, but I can always wash the dishes and clear the table.
Zhou Ranran also came over and stayed for a while. When she saw the crutch in Li Yuan's hand, she went back to take care of the child.
Li Wanhe came to Li Yuan and asked, "Xiaoyuan, do you want to inform those people in the village? You can stay away for a while."
Li Wanhe was also worried that something might happen to Li Yuan, mainly because they were fellow villagers after all, and it would be better to inform them about the village's downgrade.
But Li Yuan shook his head and said, "No need to notify them, so as to avoid making a mess. They chose to leave at the beginning, and they didn't think of leaving any thoughts in the village."
Li Yuan knew too well the situation in the village in his previous life. Even Zhou Youfang had a very ordinary relationship with his family.
It’s not like now, when if there is anything happening at home, they will come just by calling them without any complaints.
Although those people in the village still mention it from time to time, and even come to see him, they actually value Li Yuan's status. Otherwise, who would have the time to care about the favors in a hometown village.
"well……"
Li Wanhe didn't mention this anymore.
He had nothing much to say about Li Yuan. Even though his personality seemed a little inhumane and he was extremely stubborn, he could always find a reason for it.
The job he does does not allow him to be overly emotional or overly hesitant.
These are the words Jiang Yiling said to them.
Jiang Yiling said that there cannot be any deviation in financial games, and only by discarding all kinds of personalities can one avoid making mistakes.
He also said that Li Yuan was already good enough. If it were someone else, no one in the family would dare to speak loudly in front of him. If anyone made a decision for him and affected him, getting angry on the spot would be the least he could do.
Li Wanhe believed this, and Li Yuan never got angry with anyone around him.
According to Jiang Yiling, Li Yuan is already impeccable.
He had been at home this year, and he could feel the warmth in Li Yuan's emotions slowly returning, but today...
Maybe this matter is more important to him.
We had a simple lunch at noon, and then began to set up the venue and prepare for the burial ceremony.
It was past midnight when Li Yuan came back from Third Master's place, and then he went straight into the study.
Jiang Yiling came over and asked him to rest, but he didn't go.
On the screen in front of him, he was planning the entire village.
His brilliance is indeed brilliant, but overall it is still a little lacking.
Even if this entire generation were to take part, it would still not be enough.
Others have accumulated wealth from several generations, plus incredible luck.
He has luck, but what he lacks is accumulation.
And the most important thing is to keep a backup plan.
The so-called back-up plan is the opportunity to recover even after a major blow.
Originally, he hadn’t thought about it so early, after all, the second generation was still young.
But today he suddenly realized that he might die suddenly.
Whether it was an attack or a sudden serious illness.
I have been thinking about it since daytime, and at night I just put the idea into practice.
It was two o'clock in the morning and I felt it was enough, so I went to rest.
After sleeping for about six hours, he got up and went to the third master's house again.
There were people on guard here last night, and it was normal for the situation to turn into a card game.
Only He Jianchuan did not participate. He helped pour water and relighted incense and candles over and over again.
The next day, all the people from the Thirteen Guardians arrived. They were all from the younger generation. People of Hou Zhenguo's level definitely didn't need to come because they had no connection with the village at all.
Wang Qi also came back.
The funeral was held on the third day.
There is one more grave mound on the back hill.
Half a month later, the atmosphere of the Third Master's death disappeared completely.
He Jianchuan inherited a villa and became the third family in the village, after Li Yuan and Zhou Ranran, to own more than one villa.
In early December, the village began to prepare for Wang Qi's marriage.
Yao Yingsong's parents came over and drank with Li Wanhe and Zhou Youfang for three consecutive days. They set a date, gave a betrothal gift, and presented three golds.
December 24th, the Changjin Lake Victory Day.
Very auspicious, suitable for getting married.
Yao Yingsong arrived at ten o'clock in the morning and had a meal with dozens of guests, including their families, at Wang Qi's villa and gave gifts.
The noise continued until late at night.
Yao Yingsong wanted to go to bed because he had to drive 300 kilometers to take Wang Qi home tomorrow.
Unfortunately, Hou Wenbin and others wouldn’t allow it.
Li Yuan had returned long ago and didn't even plan to get up the next morning to send him off.
But I didn't expect that at around six in the morning, when the weather was freezing cold, the wedding car team stopped in front of Li Yuan's house.
Li Yuan was woken up by Jiang Yiling. He went downstairs, glanced at Yao Yingsong and Wang Qi, and said, "Don't you know that the wedding car can't stop midway? This represents a smooth journey in the relationship. What's the matter with you stopping?"
Yao Yingsong smiled and said, "I came here specifically to tell the boss that I want to take Qiqi home!"
"Okay, that's enough. I'll be relieved to leave Xiao Qi to you."
Li Yuan walked over and helped him adjust his tie.
At the same time, he said, "There is still a long way to go in the future."
"Well, I'll listen to the boss."
Yao Yingsong shouldn't have called me 'boss'. I don't know if he couldn't get used to it or if he did it on purpose.
Li Yuan smiled and sent the two back to the car, then waved goodbye to the convoy.
He didn't turn and go into the house until the car's taillights disappeared into the darkness.
Jiang Yiling whispered: "He came here today to express his stance."
"Um."
"Although I'm not very familiar with him, I feel that he is a very calm person. It's a pity that he lacks some background. Although his age is not bad, it's hard to say what his future will be like."
Li Yuan put his arm around Jiang Yiling's shoulders and said, "Wife, times have changed. They have changed quietly since a few years ago. He has a lot of room to play. If there is no room, then build one for him."
"What has it become?"
"It has become a cannibalism that no longer needs to be concealed, and it is even more naked."
"So you actually said the same thing as my grandfather."
"hold head high."
At this point, there is nothing that cannot be admitted.
Arriving at the bedroom, Jiang Yiling thought for a while on the bed and said, "Does Qingtian Group have any education support projects in remote mountainous areas?"
"Yes, we do. We mainly hire some teachers, integrate educational resources in remote areas, and provide students with some living support."
"How about I host this project?"
"Well, I'm worried. It's quite tiring."
"It's okay, it's settled. Jingcheng will be old enough next year, so mom and dad will be able to take care of him. I'll find something to do for myself. As for Jiang Shu's kindergarten... I'll leave it to you."
Li Yuan: “…”
It seems that Jiang Yiling doesn't want to take Jiang Shu with him.
Three-year-old Jiang Shu was already very scary.
He has a lot of energy and basically needs an adult to accompany him and adapt to his biological clock.
He was tired from tossing and turning and fell asleep immediately. Adults don't have such high sleep quality.
That is to say, there are many people in the family, but if there is only Jiang Yiling, he would be exhausted by Jiang Shu.
"Don't you find Jiang Shu's creative ideas interesting?"
"What wonderful idea? I just think he's been so annoying lately..."
It may be because Li Yuan stayed at home more this year, and Li Yuan is the kind of person who is particularly patient with children. No matter what Jiang Shu talked to him about, he could continue the conversation.
Then... Jiang Shu changed.
At the age of three, he can pull people aside and ask questions for a long time, and make all kinds of weird remarks.
Li Yuan smiled and said, "Forget it, forget it. You won't be able to enjoy this blessing. It's my turn to enjoy it."
As soon as Li Yuan finished speaking, Jiang Shu, who had just woken up, ran in from outside.
Because Li Jingcheng was still young, Jiang Shu always slept with his grandparents.
But he is very attached to Li Yuan now.
"Dad, Dad...do you have money?"
He ran over with his little legs. After all, he was old enough to go to kindergarten, so he spoke clearly and moved very quickly.
He asked while lying on the bed.
Li Yuan carried him to the bed and said, "There is no money now, but there will be some in the afternoon."
Jiang Shu looked unconvinced , "But when you were eating my snacks yesterday, you said you would have the money this morning."
"You remembered it wrong. I said today, not morning or afternoon. Jiang Shu, the most important thing between father and son is trust. You must fully and unconditionally trust your father in any situation."
Jiang Shu rolled his eyes and said, "If someone says you ate shit, will I believe you ate shit?"
Li Yuan: "..., this..."
Jiang Shu: "Didn't you say that I should trust you unconditionally in any situation?"
"There is a problem with your assumption. When someone says that I eat shit, if you trust me enough, you should believe that I will not eat shit."
"But no matter what snacks I buy, you always eat them in one gulp, leaving me only a little bit."
Jiang Shu pinched the tip of his little finger with his thumb to describe the snacks that were left after Li Yuan had eaten them.
Li Yuan: "But that's what we agreed on. After buying the snacks, let Dad have a bite."
"Do you want to eat any snack?"
"Yeah, Dad, my bites are just a little bit bigger. After all, I'm an adult, so I must eat more than a child."
"That means you really like snacks."
"Of course, I love it so much. I've never eaten it before."
Jiang Shu: "But you pointed at dog poop yesterday and said it looked like sausage. If you have never eaten snacks before and you love snacks so much, I believe you must have eaten poop as a snack when you didn't have any snacks."
Li Yuan: “…”
Jiang Yiling had already covered his head with the quilt.
She had had enough.
