Ancient Assassin Meets Modern-day Career Woman

Chapter 37: Hit the road

Of course Ruan Qing would ask how this was done.

Twenty-seven said modestly: "It's just a small skill from the master's school, not worth mentioning."

Ruan Qing tasted them one by one.

Trade secrets should not be disclosed.

OK.

The purchased items were delivered one after another in the afternoon and evening. Some were purchased from supermarkets, and some were purchased through errands. Basically, they were all purchased.

Get ready to leave the next morning.

When Ruan Qing woke up in the morning and walked out of the bedroom, he was stunned when he saw Nian Qi.

She also asked him not to shave before going to bed yesterday. Sure enough, he didn't shave. Just one night, my chin turned blue. Do men's beards grow so fast

The originally clean and handsome face suddenly became more masculine. How could a lustful person like Ruan Qing not take a few furtive glances.

This made Twenty-Seven feel anxious until he got in the car - he really looked old if he didn't shave!

Does she dislike him

Moving is annoying. But for twenty-seven, it’s worth it.

It doesn't matter even if he can't find a job, he can work as a driver for her, and she can really pay him a salary. Housework and so on can be offset by her taking him in. But he couldn't shirk the reward of being a driver.

By the way, his kung fu is so good that he can also work part-time as a bodyguard. With him here, I can go anywhere without fear.

"When you get your ID card, hurry up and get your driver's license." Ruan Qing said, "Now that you have your driver's license, you will drive when we go out, and I will lie down next to you."

This little day is amazing!

"Later, they both resigned and went to work, and our family moved to the provincial capital so that I could have better educational resources."

Ruan Qing has no intention of inheriting the family business, and her parents have also considered whether to hand over the business to others or hire a professional manager in the future. But they are engaged in township-level processing industry. There is no technical content. Professional managers are familiar with all customers, and it is easy to lure your customers away to work alone.

He responded happily: "Okay!" Ruan Qing thought further: "I will change my residence then and find a three-bedroom apartment so that you can have your own bedroom."

My parents were afraid that Ruan Qing would not be able to do business in the future and the family would be ruined, so they had been investing in real estate in Ruan Qing over the years.

Ruan Qing drove all the way and told Nana Qi about the situation in his hometown: "...my grandfather left his hometown and went to the county. My father was born in the county. Later he went to the city and married my mother. I was born in the city. of."

My own bedroom or something...

This is my father and mother’s debtor from the previous life.

The corners of Ruan Qing's mouth turned up.

As soon as these words came out, Twenty-seven's worried heart suddenly felt at ease. The harsh sunshine outside the car became bright and pleasant.

In Ruan Qing's imagination, he didn't have to worry about anything and was accompanied by a handsome man every day. He can handle housework and daily life.

Twenty-seven set out with Ruan Qing in a worried mood. By car of course. Twenty-seven doesn’t have an ID card yet, and the high-speed rail is not available yet, so she can only drive by herself.

"But then I went to college, and the two of them went back to live in the city. Mainly because their friends and some connections were there. It can be said that the entire foundation is there, and they preferred to live there. .

As for the fact that my family actually has houses and shops in the county, city, provincial capital and front line, there is no need to talk to Twenty-seven.

With Twenty-Seven by her side, she can handle all the housework. If she can learn to drive again, she can take him with her wherever she goes in the future.

Twenty-seven smiled: "It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if you have it or not."

Even if the family factory cannot continue to operate in the future, with these assets, Ruan Qing can rest peacefully for the rest of his life.

Jiangcheng is in the same province as my hometown, and the expressway doesn't take long. I got off the expressway after driving for an hour.

But the speed of the car slowed down as soon as we got off the highway. It took almost two hours to drive from the moment we got off the highway to the county town where the hotel was located.

"This is not the county seat of my hometown. My hometown belongs to the county next door." Ruan Qing said, "I avoided it on purpose. Although I didn't know anyone there, I still wanted to be just in case. It's safe for us to live here. point."

The main thing is that there are some relatives in his hometown. Ruan Qing doesn't know them, but they know Ruan Qing.

Because my family’s factory uses many relatives from my hometown.

This is also one of the reasons why Ruan Qing is unwilling to inherit the family business. There are a lot of bad things, nonsense, and weird things. A girl like Ruan Qing who grew up in the city simply couldn't stand it.

"This time I am mainly going to deceive. No, the relative I am going to visit, I call him Grandpa Seven." Ruan Qing said, "What kind of relative is he? I have to do the math..."

She hesitated for a long time to figure out this relationship—

"My grandfather and him are cousins across the room."

"My great-grandfather and his father are cousins."

"My grandfather's grandfather and his grandfather are brothers."

In twenty-seven seconds, the relationship was clear: "Your branch and his branch have the same great ancestor."

Great-great-grandfather, great-great-grandfather, great-grandfather, grandfather, father, and then Ruan Qing.

He said: "Five servers have been released."

"Yes, yes, my mother said the same thing." Ruan Qing said, "You are so good, you can figure it out all at once? I have to push it backwards every time to figure it out."

Twenty-seven couldn't understand: "Why can't you figure this out?"

Even if they come out of the fifth server, they are still of the same race. Brothers from that branch are clan brothers. This is a basic understanding of social relationships. How could you not understand it

Twenty-seven are orphans and can figure it out. Because the five etiquettes are written in the book. "Because I'm an only child." Ruan Qing said, "I figured it out. My grandfather came from the countryside. My family has many relatives in the countryside, and many of them are still in contact with our family. So I can still tell the difference. Know most of the names of relatives."

"My college classmates are the kind who have been urbanites for generations, the kind where at least two generations of the family have only children, including 'cousin' and 'cousin', 'nephew' and 'nephew', 'uncle' and 'uncle' , I can’t tell the difference between ‘aunt’ and ‘aunt’.”

"And in modern times, there are no clans like you did in ancient times. They were broken up and dispersed as early as the founding of the People's Republic of China. The country does not allow clan forces to exist. Now each family lives its own life. In big cities, many families basically do not Hanging out with relatives.

"In our family, if my grandfather and my father hadn't always wanted to bring relatives with them, I would probably have become indistinguishable from cousins."

Twenty-seven's heart moved slightly, and he asked tentatively: "Then if a person is alone and has no relatives, is it not a big deal?"

"Isn't that a good thing?" Ruan Qing said, "Who wants to visit relatives now? Let alone relatives, the current trend of decoration is to decontaminate the living room, without TV, TV cabinet, TV wall or anything else. I just have no intention of doing so. Entertain guests at home."

"The house I live in now is rented. Most of the furniture belongs to the landlord, and I am too lazy to get it, so it has a traditional layout and a living room."

When Ruan Qing ran to Jiangcheng, he had no intention of staying there forever. He just regarded it as a temporary place to stay.

I just didn't expect that time flies by so fast, and more than two years have passed.

"Would the woman mind if we talk about marriage?" Twenty-seven continued to test. In ancient times, if he took advantage of his rich net worth to buy a house, farmland, and servants, he would be able to mend the fate of a lonely star and the death of his parents.

It may not be possible to marry into a wealthy family, but you can marry into a good family from a small family no matter what.

But now, he is poor and living on Ruan Qing's food. A poor boy with both parents dead and no relatives. In the past, he would have been rejected as a son-in-law. Therefore, twenty-seven has always been worried that Ruan Qing's parents will look down on him.

Although Ruan Qing didn't explain it clearly, Twenty-Seven had already vaguely noticed that Ruan Qing not only made a lot of money herself, but her family's conditions should be quite good, even very good.

So now I really can’t open my mouth to ask for marriage.

"No way?" Ruan Qing said, "Who cares? Girls all wish their boyfriends had lost their parents."

Although it sounds like the three views are not very upright, almost like the kind that can make a Taoist gentleman angry to death. But Twenty-Seven is a desperate man, and he is not a Taoist.

It's good for him, good.

"What about the girl's parents?" He asked cautiously, "The parents still mind a little bit, right?"

Comparing his feelings, if he had a daughter who was as beautiful as a flower, a poor boy who couldn't explain her origins came and abducted his daughter.

Don't blame him for being ruthless and ruthless. He will not spare anyone.

But people have double standards. When I am that poor boy with unknown origins, I hope that Ruan Qing's parents will look up to him.

Ruan Qing finally came to his senses and glanced at him, a little surprised: "Are you talking about yourself? Do you want to get married?"

"Ahem." Twenty-seven quickly took the opportunity to express his attitude, "Now that we are here, we should put down roots and live a down-to-earth life."

Twenty-seven felt that his attitude was too correct.

No one should look for this kind of son-in-law. You should know that it is not uncommon for a man to run away after being a home-based son-in-law for two years. The woman's family is afraid of encountering that kind of man.

You must be honest and prepared to live for a long time.

Tsk.

After all, they are ancient people with old-fashioned feudal ideas. All they think about is marrying a wife and having children. I have traveled to the future world, and I still don’t want to travel around the world, overlooking the mountains and rivers, or marry a wife.

Tsk, tsk, tsk, that’s really annoying. The sweet dream just now was just perfect, and it brought him back to reality.

People will not die unless they get married.

"Who knows." Ruan Qing said perfunctorily, "I'm not from my parents' generation, so I don't know if they would mind."

In one sentence, Twenty-seven was stunned again.

When the car drove into the county town, they first found a place to have lunch, and then passed through the county town towards Ruan Qing's hometown.

The roads we drive on are all mountainous, but there are roads.

Ruan Qing drove the navigation all the way, and finally parked the car on the side of the road at a high place. He pointed to the distance and showed it to Twenty-seven: "That! That village! It should be my hometown."

Ruan Qing's plan is for them to go into the mountains first to check out the locations to see where they can perform the scene.

The plot is actually not complicated. Ruan Qing plans to visit Uncle Seventh alone tomorrow, and then pretend to visit the mountains in front of him. Of course, Twenty-seven met her at a place arranged in advance. In fact, the two of them went into the mountains together and wandered around until dark. Then she called Uncle Qi and told Uncle Qi that she was lost and met a man. The mountain people took her in.

Of course, if you want to maximize the dramatic effect and make the plot realistic, it is best to make one or two phone calls first to say that you are lost, creating the illusion that you are "always looking for a way", and then make the last phone call to say that you met a mountain man and was Taken in, safe.

Tell Uncle Qi not to go into the mountains to look for her.

The next day, she took this "mountain man" out of the mountain again and gave him a person who "was adopted and raised by an old man (little Taoist boy) in a Taoist temple in the mountains. The master has died, and he is left to live alone in the mountains." set up.

Done.

The condition required by the plot is to find a place for this "mountain man" to live. Ruan Qing's idea was to find a cave, build a few bonfires, and burn some traces of life, making it seem like someone really lived here.

In this way, if the villagers ask for proof, they will take the villagers here to see it to confirm that what they said is true.

The only thing Ruan Qing was worried about was whether Uncle Qi's heart could bear it if the missing person was too realistic. Because Uncle Qi’s family had received help from her family in the past, they have always had a good relationship with her family. I'm afraid he'll get angry in a hurry.

When I meet Uncle Qi tomorrow, I will ask him if he has a history of heart disease, gauge whether the old man will be frightened, and then decide whether to add drama.
