I'm The Hard Rice King

Chapter 395 One wedding per person?

"Little brat, I'll give you a chance to organize your words, and you repeat what you just said."

Li Qiyuan stood upright, pointing at Li Peifeng's nose, his eyes seemed to contain a volcano that was about to erupt.

Li Peifeng was helpless: "Dad, I know this is very difficult for you, but if I add money, can I add money? It's also five million, and the appearance fee is only five million for one person... Your price is comparable to that of the first-tier A star."

Li Qiyuan's words came out from between his teeth: "Don't even think about fifty million!!"

"Is it uncle?"

Before the phone hung up, Xu Manying's crisp and lovely voice came from the phone: "Uncle, I, Man Ning, you answer the phone~"

"For you?"

Li Peifeng felt uneasy, knowing that he could not get Li Qiyuan to agree, so he had no choice but to hand over the phone, trying to see if Xu Manying's words would work...

Li Qiyuan gritted his teeth, and took it with a gloomy face, but he still knew to look back to see if Zhao Qingge had followed, and then walked quickly to the window at the edge of the kitchen. Although his face was still gloomy, his tone was kind and smiling. Satisfied, the volume was also low: "Man Ning, it's me, what's wrong?"

"ta~ta~"

Li Peifeng sensed footsteps approaching from outside the living room, and immediately walked out of the kitchen to greet him.

"I'll help, don't let uncle do the work."

Zhao Qingge continued to walk forward while talking like this, Li Peifeng stopped her and hugged her, and said with a smile: "Honey, after my father and your parents meet in the evening, will our teacher-student relationship be sublimated?" For a moment?"

Zhao Qingge's face was cold: "I can't sublimate, I have been your mentor until you graduate."

"You can also serve as your fiancée."

"Let go, your dad is still in the kitchen!"

"It's okay, don't worry about him, the dishes are ready, and you can eat them right away."

In order to delay Zhao Qingge's time, Li Peifeng didn't let Zhao Qingge find out that Lao Li was on the phone with Xu Manying, and walked to the bedroom with his hands in his arms, wandering around Zhao Qingge's suit and trousers...

At this time, Li Qiyuan was still on the phone with complicated emotions: "Man Ning, you should know the purpose of my visit to the capital this time, right?"

"I know, for the sake of Zhao Qingge's parents... but it doesn't affect it."

Xu Manying tried his best to pretend nothing had happened, but he still couldn't hide his grievance: "Uncle, you should go see them first, anyway, Pei Feng also wants to marry Zhao Qingge first. But you must come to my house tomorrow, I will tell my parents ”

Li Qiyuan's face is like the suffering Jesus, with a touch of pain and compassion for all sentient beings: "Tomorrow Monday, I planned to go back to work tonight...Of course, I can ask for leave, it doesn't affect anything But the problem is Manning, you want me to meet your parents for the same purpose as Qingge, right?"

"right!"

After Xu Manying responded affirmatively, he seemed to gain confidence: "Uncle, you should know that strictly speaking, I am Pei Feng's official girlfriend, and I was the only one who was officially announced with him. By the way, you now Haven't gone to Zhao Qingge's house to have dinner with them yet? If you want me to tell you that you shouldn't go, you're coming to my house today to meet my parents. Pei Feng and I were together in September last year, and I was his first love... …You shouldn’t meet anyone else’s parents!”

Daughter-in-law No. 2 is on the stage, right? Are you giving me a hard time?

Li Qiyuan wiped the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, and was silent for a moment. When Xu Manying thought the signal was not good, he said ruthlessly: "Manning, it's like this. Just now, Peifeng and I came to Qingge, and we went with you again. Auntie used a video call, and the four of us chatted. After discussion, we all agreed that it would be more appropriate for them to get married after Peifeng graduated. So after dinner, I will ask Qing Ge’s parents for their opinion on this matter. It’s probably settled…”

"Yes, I know."

Xu Manying's tone did not fluctuate: "They planned this way a long time ago, but this is not a conflict. I will not graduate in two years, so I plan to marry him in two years. But recently my parents always want to see each other You and Auntie, it just so happens that you are here this time."

Speaking of this, Miss Xu seemed to be choked up after a pause in her tone: "If it's inconvenient for uncle, forget it, we'll talk about it next time when we have a chance...hiss~wu~"

That little brat is really sinful! !

Li Qiyuan couldn't stop cursing secretly. Hearing the vague crying, even he felt that he had made some heinous mistake. He couldn't help subconsciously saying: "Go, I'll go see your parents tomorrow..."

As soon as the words came out, Lao Li realized something was wrong and went back to make amends: "Let's wait until the evening. I'll finish talking to Qingge's parents in the evening, and then talk to..."

"Okay, then it's settled. Goodbye, uncle!"

Xu Manying interrupted with a tearful smile, and hung up the phone before he could finish.

Li Qiyuan slowly put down his hand and stared at the knife on the cutting board in a daze.

Hold back, hold back, hold back!

Take the kitchen knife and cut the meat in half directly! !

"peng~"

"Dad, let me do it."

Li Peifeng showed up just in time for the meeting, followed by Zhao Qingge: "Uncle, you don't need to do anything."

"Yes, go and rest."

Li Peifeng tried to take the kitchen knife, once, twice, but he didn't take it. With a little force tentatively, Li Qiyuan was willing to step aside, and without looking at his son, he said to Zhao Qingge in a low voice: "Can you contact me?" Parents, please move the conversation ahead of time. It’s best if we go there right after dinner, otherwise we’ll be idle now and I have to catch the train in the evening.”

Lao Li planned to end the meeting with Zhao Qingge's parents early so that he could have more time in the evening to chat with Xu Manying and the others.

Zhao Qingge also felt that the time set at four in the afternoon was a bit late, so he nodded and agreed: "Okay, I'll ask them if they have time."

…

Although Li Xin and Zhao Haiqi are university leaders and are busy with work on weekdays, they don't have to work overtime every weekend, and they have an important meeting today, so they have specially arranged a whole day of free time.

Under the premise of sufficient time, Li Qiyuan's proposal was approved, so the meeting between the parents of both parties was more than three hours earlier than the original plan at 4 pm.

"Haha, Peifeng is right, my future in-laws are indeed young."

"Really? After hearing what you said, I instantly felt several years younger, haha~"

"Professor Li, sit down quickly, there are fruits here."

When the two families met for the first time, they greeted each other politely.

Needless to say, Li Xin and Zhao Haiqi are both good at socializing, with impeccable words and deeds. They did not reveal some uncomfortable eyes or condescending words because of the social status gap between the two parties. Instead, they were very enthusiastic and natural.

Li Qiyuan is also transparent and humorous. He exudes personal charm in every move he makes and every word he does.

Li Peifeng has always felt that his father is not only a teacher, but also a philosopher, a poet, and maybe half a stand-up show actor. This old man has some humor genes in his bones, and he also inherited it, so at this time, cooperate with Lao Li and let The atmosphere of the conversation was improved to a higher level.

The topics ranged from pregnant Yu Huizhi to each other's university and interesting things at work, and then returned to family, talking about Li Peifeng and Zhao Qingge's grandparents and grandparents' generation.

Everyone chatted speculatively, and Li Qiyuan and Zhao Haiqi were already familiar with each other by calling each other "brother" and "brother". Half an hour passed without knowing it, and Li Qiyuan suddenly slapped his head, saying that he almost forgot something.

Then, he picked up the schoolbag he had brought from home, opened it and took out a painting tube.

"My wife painted this by herself. She told me before coming here to give it to you two."

Li Xin smiled and waved her hand: "Xiao Feng is always empty-handed every time he comes. Professor Li, you come here and bring something with you, which makes us..."

"A gentleman's heart is benevolence, and his heart is courtesy. A benevolent person loves others, and a polite person respects others. Those who love others will always love them, and those who respect others will always respect them."

Zhao Haiqi stretched out his hand to take the scroll, and at the same time tugged at it politely and said, "Reciprocity is a courtesy, next time it's our turn to return it... Let me see what's on the painting."

"The painting is the scenery of Ningyuan City. She and I both hope that you two will have time to visit us."

Zhao Haiqi praised again and again, and slowly unfolded the picture scroll in the painting tube on the coffee table. The size of 81cm×51cm covered half of the coffee table, and everyone could have a clear view.

This is a work depicting the sunrise on the seashore of Ningyuan City. It overlooks the sea from the perspective of Zeshan Mountain in Ningyuan. The forest on the mountain is lush and lush. Not far away, the red sun has just jumped out of the sea level. It is golden and red, burning through half of the sky. , giving people a majestic feeling of "the sea breeze is dyed with thousands of rays of light, and the waves are turbulent all the time".

Looking at the sea water again, the true blue color and the sunshine of the first day have formed a gorgeous color, like a dream, full of water and sparkling waves. The translucent and crystal water is flexible, blurry and full of texture, even if it is captured with a camera. The beauty of the painting cannot be captured.

The painting style is super realistic, fresh and clear, and the brushwork is free and natural.

Especially the depiction of water is not only realistic, but also very moving. Yu Huizhi uses watercolor to express the light and shadow effects of sea water under different climate conditions. This technique is truly unique. Because the most taboo thing about watercolor painting is repeated modifications and multiple layers of paint, this makes painting with water quite difficult.

"Oh~"

The three members of the Zhao family were obviously shocked at this time, either out of intention or out of respect.

"My mother's painting skills have improved a lot." Li Peifeng commented. Li Qiyuan glanced at him and whispered: "Your painting will be of some help to her."

"Auntie can hold an art exhibition." Zhao Qingge praised, and Zhao Haiqi also nodded in agreement: "It's so precious that the in-laws have to worry about it. Brother Qiyuan, you must thank her on our behalf. Next summer vacation, we will definitely go to Ningyuan The city is a guest.”

Li Xin looked at the title "Sunrise on the Sea" written in the blank space in the upper right corner of the painting, as well as Yu Huizhi's three delicate and elegant autographs. She was not only satisfied with the painting, but also admired the author.

As the saying goes, the painting is like the person, and the work represents the author's personality to a large extent.

With such a versatile and romantic mother-in-law, Qingge would never have been in trouble when she got married, and the two families will definitely get along very harmoniously in the future!

"I still have to thank you in person. Lao Li, can you give me Huizhi's WeChat account and I can chat with her?"

"Okay." Li Qiyuan happily agreed and reported the number. It should be no problem for Li Xin to call it now.

At this point, Li Xin went into the bedroom to call Yu Huizhi, while Li Qiyuan and Zhao Haiqi continued to chat.

However, no one mentioned anything serious, namely the marriage of the two children!

Zhao Haiqi wanted Li Qiyuan, the man's parent, to take the initiative to speak. This was reasonable. After all, the man's parents should bring up such matters first. If he said so, he would lose his standing. On the other hand, Zhao Haiqi also felt that by taking the initiative, it was easy for the other party to think that his old girl was worried about getting married, although in fact she was really worried about getting married.

Li Qiyuan didn't want to speak out of guilt, evasion and other reasons. Originally, Lao Li also wanted to settle the marriage between Li Peifeng and Zhao Qingge as soon as possible so that the remaining three girls would give up. However, Xu Manying gave him a phone call to give him up. .

These girls are really obsessed with their sons and don't want to let go no matter what. Now Li Qiyuan has no choice but to be his son's accomplice and let Li Peifeng marry one, divorce one, marry one, and divorce one, and indirectly realize his wolf ambition in this way?

Then Li Qiyuan would feel that he had failed as a father, so he was inexplicably resistant. Secondly, even when chatting with Zhao Qingge's parents, he always inadvertently thought of the scene when he went to the Xu family tomorrow...

It can be said to be quite bad! !

"Are you done talking?"

At this time, Zhao Haiqi noticed Li Xin walking back to the living room from the bedroom with her mobile phone. She nodded and smiled: "Huizhi is beautiful and kind-hearted. You are lucky, Old Li."

Li Qiyuan showed the most sincere smile in this meeting: "Indeed, meeting her may have overdrawn my blessings in the first half of my life."

So I gave birth to such a careless son to pay off the debt! !

What are you looking at me for?

Li Peifeng secretly cursed, took Zhao Qingge's little hand and put it in his arms, squeezing it secretly. At this time, Zhao Duoduo was uncharacteristically honest, sitting on one side and listening intently to the conversation between the two families...

"The scenery in this painting, eh, Hui Zhi painted it really well!"

Zhao Haiqi stared at the paintings on the coffee table and sighed again: "We must go to Ningyuan City to see it in person if we have the opportunity."

Li Xin nodded in agreement, and then asked: "Old Li, do you and Huizhi want to come to the capital for development?"

"You don't need to resign from Liaoyuan University of Technology. You can come here through special appointment. I see that there are many first-class universities in the capital that are in short supply of Mazhi professors, which makes students dislike this course...such as Agricultural University, University of Science and Technology, and Hangzhou University. Including the economy and trade where I work, I don’t think there is any problem. Still, if Huizhi has such superb painting skills, it would be a pity to stay in an engineering school like Liaoyuan University of Technology to teach art... The most important thing is that if you come to the capital, , I can get closer to Xiaofeng in the future."

Zhao Haiqi hummed: "It would be better if the two families are closer."

No need!

Li Peifeng's heart tightened.

And Li Qiyuan understood that this was a hint from the couple opposite him. As long as he nodded, he and his wife could enter those first-class universities as specially appointed professors and teach at the same time. At the same time, they could retain their positions at Liaoyuan University of Technology and receive double salary from now on. salary. It sounded quite tempting, and Lao Li had no doubt that they didn't have this ability, but he just didn't want to build relationships to gain popularity, let alone find work for himself, he just wanted to lie down!

"It's fine now, and since she's still trying to get pregnant, we're unlikely to have to go back and forth."

Li Qiyuan declined politely and said politely: "Fengfeng doesn't need us to take care of him. He is about to start a family... Let him make his own way in the future. When the child gets older, his mother and I can no longer take care of him. Financially, occasionally needs his care."

"Get married soon?"

Zhao Haiqi instantly caught this key word and smiled faintly: "He hasn't gotten married yet, so he still needs you as a father to help him out, and how long you are talking about soon, brother Qiyuan, you might as well Tell me in detail?"

After all, there is no escape from this stubble!

Li Qiyuan sighed in his heart, but with a smile on his face: "Before coming here, I consulted them privately for their opinions. Why don't we wait until he graduates and settle the matter? Brother Haiqi, what do you think?"

"Just as I thought."

Zhao Haiqi nodded with satisfaction: "After Xiaofeng graduates, it will be the summer vacation in July. At that time, everyone has time, and we can hold two. We will hold a relatively small thank you banquet in the capital, and you will hold a large one in Ningyuan City. A formal ceremony of this scale... After all, the relationship between two children is a bit special, so it’s best not to hold a formal wedding in the capital.”

Speaking of this, I stopped talking.

"It depends on what the two children want to do at that time. They can do whatever they want to do, and hold as many shows as they want."

Li Qiyuan didn't explicitly agree, he just said haha.

What's the use of doing a few games? I have to leave in a few days, it's superfluous! !

"Just a real wedding ceremony."

Zhao Qingge suddenly spoke up and looked at Li Peifeng with serious eyes: "Can we just have one wedding?"

Li Peifeng nodded heavily: "Okay, I'll just do one show, just with you!"

Just do one with me, and one for each of the other three people, right? !

Zhao Qingge could completely hear the underlying meaning of Li's words. He pursed his lips and clenched his fists tighter...
