Chapter 2335 get together
Bai Qingqing naturally wanted to join in the fun, but she just said the wrong thing, and Xia Ruofei almost got angry, so now she doesn't dare to make additional requests, she can only nod her head in grievance and agree.
Because the Song family's old house was heavily guarded, Xia Ruofei did not let Wu Qiang drive, but he drove the car himself.
Everyone's seat allocation is also very subtle. Song Qiming and Fang Liyun naturally sat in the most comfortable seat in the middle row. There was still a passenger seat and a relatively narrow rear seat.
Song Wei and Ling Qingxue hesitated for a while, then chose the rear seat invariably, but the co-pilot seat was vacated.
In fact, everyone was tacit, Xia Ruofei simply took some of the gifts he prepared in advance from the spiritual map space and put them on the co-pilot's seat.
He also carefully divided the gift into two parts, one of which was given to Lao Song rarely by him before, as a gift for Song Qiming's family, and the other was naturally a gift from him and Ling Qingxue to Lao Song.
After all, in everyone's cognition, Ling Qingxue is his real girlfriend.
The car drove smoothly on the streets of the capital, and the awkward atmosphere gradually dissipated.
Song Qiming couldn't help feeling quite emotional when he looked at the scene outside the car window.
Before he retired, he actually came to the capital often, for various meetings, work reports, etc., no less than ten times a year.
Song Qiming talked about some interesting things about going to Beijing in the past, and the atmosphere in the car became more and more relaxed.
Before we knew it, everyone arrived at the Song Family old house.
The Coaster that Xia Ruofei drove had its license plate registered in advance, and the Song family, the visitor this time, also informed the sentry in advance, so the guard soldiers simply checked everyone's identities and quickly released it.
When the car came to the empty field at the entrance of the old house, Xia Ruofei found that there were a lot more cars parked today than before.
And Director Lu has also come to the door ahead of time to wait.
This standard is very high, even Song Qiming was a little moved. He naturally knew the weight of Director Lu. Before, when he came to visit Lao Song, young staff members came to lead the way, and he could not enjoy the treatment that Director Lu personally greeted.
This time Director Lu came out, obviously not because of him Song Qiming.
Sure enough, after everyone got off the bus, Director Lu immediately walked up to greet everyone with a smile, and the first person he greeted was Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Director Lu, every time you go out to greet me in person, this junior is really flattered!"
"Since you're flattered, why don't you give me the letter that the old man gave you last time?" Director Lu joked.
"It's not the same thing..." Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Besides, you won't be short of the words of the old man if you lack anything! You have been working by his side for so many years..."
"Your painting is the masterpiece of the old man!" Director Lu still cherishes the calligraphy that is devoted to serving the country, "How about I exchange the five old man's calligraphy with you?"
"Don't change it!" Xia Ruofei said, "The old man wrote the signature and gave it to me, and I definitely want to keep it..."
"Alas..." Director Lu said with a sigh, "I know this is the result..."
The group walked into the house under the guidance of Director Lu, and Xia Ruofei asked casually: "By the way, Director Lu, I see a lot of cars outside. Are there guests at home today?"
"There are no outsiders, it's just that Xiao Rui's wedding is approaching, and most of the old man's children have come back." Director Lu said, "Even the younger generation living in the capital has returned to the old house these days. After all, the wedding is about the matter. There are so many things, everyone must contribute!"
"That's what it is!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Xiao Rui should be the first in the third generation of the Song family to start a family, right? He was the eldest son and the eldest grandson, and now he is about to add a great-grandson to the old man. It should be."
"Who said it wasn't?" Director Lu replied, then he woke up, stopped and looked at Xia Ruofei and asked, "Ruofei, you saw Yiyi last time, do you see that she has a great-grandson in her stomach?"
Xia Ruofei was stunned for a moment, and said incredulously: "Director Lu, how long has Yiyi been pregnant? I can't even see it through ultrasound, how could I see it, I just said that the great-grandson was just like that, it may be a great-granddaughter! But the meaning is the same!"
"Oh..." Director Lu said slightly disappointed.
Xia Ruofei joked: "Yo! It seems that Director Lu wants Xiaorui and Zhuo Yiyi's child to be a boy! I don't see that you still have a patriarchal mind..."
"I didn't!" Director Lu hurriedly denied, "I just want to know the result! Boys and girls are the same..."
Song Wei and Ling Qingxue couldn't help but secretly pursed their lips and laughed. Director Lu's desire to survive was still very strong. Although there were no outsiders today, he didn't want to tell the truth.
While chatting, everyone followed Director Lu into the inner house.
The inner house was really lively today. Song Lao was wearing a brand-new Tang suit, and he looked even more radiant with his strong body.
Most of Song Lao's children also rushed back.
Song Rui's father Song Zhengping is now also in charge, but he is the father of the groom, so he also took a few more days off and returned to Beijing ahead of schedule.
In addition, Song Zhengming, the third son of the Song family, was originally working in the capital, and he moved to the old house these two days. There is nothing particularly important in the work unit, so he will not go there. He is helping Zhang Luo's wedding at the old house. matter.
There are also two aunts of Song Rui, Song Zhiping and Song Zhilan, who are also at the old house.
Only Song Zhenglin, the second son of Song Lao, was able to arrive two days later because of his busy government affairs.
Most of the three generations of the Song family live in the capital. They can't stand the boring life in the old house, mainly because the pressure of being around the old man is too great, so they didn't come. It is estimated that they will appear the day before the wedding or even the day of the wedding.
Only Song Rui, as the protagonist of this wedding, can't go anywhere. He has lived in the old house for seven or eight days and accepts calls from all parties at any time.
As soon as Xia Ruofei and his party arrived, Song Lao was also very happy, and the children of the Song family also greeted each other warmly. Song Qiming was already close to the Song family, not to mention Xia Ruofei, Song Lao regarded him as his grandson. Yes, and the children of the Song family also know very well that if it weren't for Xia Ruofei's magical medical skills, Song Lao would have died long ago, and the pillars of the Song family would no longer exist.
Song Rui saw that Xia Ruofei brought Song Wei and Ling Qingxue to the door together, and Song Wei's parents, he couldn't help showing admiration, hiding behind and secretly gave Xia Ruofei a thumbs up.
How could Xia Ruofei not know Song Rui's thoughts, he could only pretend that he didn't see Song Rui's little actions, and still greeted Song Zhengping with a smile on his face.
Song Qiming and Fang Liyun did the same, first greeted Song Lao, and then chatted happily with everyone.
On the other hand, Song Wei and Ling Qingxue, as juniors, didn't get much attention for a while, and they looked at the layout of the old house with great interest.
With the approaching of the wedding date, some atmosphere arrangements have also begun to be made. The old house that was slightly outdated has been redecorated, and red elements can be seen everywhere, red couplets, red lanterns, red window grilles...
After everyone chatted for a while, Song Qiming said: "Uncle, we and Ruofei came to Beijing a few days earlier this time, just to see if there was anything we could help... Xiao Rui's wedding must have a lot of things to do. , you see... do we claim some work ourselves, or do you assign us tasks?"
Song Qiming and the Song family are distant relatives. According to the seniority, Song Qiming and Song Rui are of the same seniority. He called Song Lao "uncle" according to the family seniority.
But this was also the first time he called him that in many years. The last time he called him uncle was when he was young. After joining the job, he always formally identified himself as a subordinate, and he was also called Song Lao.
Song Lao smiled and said: "You are the guests who came to watch the ceremony this time. You don't have to undertake any tasks... Oh no, it seems that Xiao Rui has assigned tasks to Ruofei and the other young people, right? Xiao Rui! Xiao Rui!"
Song Lao called out a few words before Song Rui came back to his senses and stood up quickly.
"Why are you so absent-minded?" Song Lao couldn't help but scolded Song Rui, and then said, "Didn't you say that you would arrange tasks for Ruofei and the others?"
Song Rui came back to his senses and said quickly, "Oh! Right, right, Ruo Fei, the best man group will count you as one! Yiyi also said that Weiwei and Qingxue are both in the bridesmaid group, and neither are allowed. Get off!"
Xia Ruofei smiled and nodded and said, "No problem, I promised them all! By the way, do we have any specific work?"
"The bridesmaids will come to Yiyi's side ahead of time, and she will arrange it." Song Rui said, "As for Ruofei, your main task is to pick me up! You also need your cooperation during the wedding, anyway, those of the best man. What's the matter! Haven't you been a best man before?"
"Not really!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "but it doesn't matter, I will give you more than 100 catties, and I will follow your command from now on!"
"Got it! Righteousness!" Song Rui said with a grin.
Song Lao asked quietly, "Xiao Rui, have you finished the task?"
Song Rui shrank his head subconsciously and said, "Grandpa, it's over, just these things..."
Song Rui was about to become a father, but he was still subconsciously fearful in front of Song Lao. This was a shadow left from childhood, and it may be difficult to overcome in the future.
"Got it!" Song Lao nodded.
Then, Song Lao turned to Xia Ruofei again, and said pleasantly: "Ruofei, you go to the study with me, I want to talk to you about some things!"
Xia Ruofei said knowingly: "Okay!"
Song Lao said to Song Qiming again: "Qiming, you sit down for a while, I have something to do with Ruofei!"
"Yes! Uncle, you are busy!" Song Qiming said quickly.
In fact, Song Qiming and some of Song Lao's children were a little curious. They didn't know what Song Lao asked Xia Ruofei to talk about, but they actually avoided everyone.
It stands to reason that if it is something related to the Song family, among the people present today, in addition to Song Rui who is relatively junior, others such as Song Zhengping, Song Zhengming and others must be qualified to listen in and even express their opinions.
But Song Lao actually called and only met Xia Ruofei alone, and even his children in high positions could not go to the study together, which was a bit unusual.
In fact, when Xia Ruofei heard Song Lao say this, he vaguely guessed what the two were about to talk about.
Sure enough, as soon as he arrived in the study, Song Lao said directly, "Ruofei, the above has already agreed with my suggestion for the last time!"
Xia Ruofei thought that he was talking about this matter, his eyes lit up and said, "That's good! Grandpa Song, after listening to what Academician Cheng said that day, I also know that such a space station with a simulated gravity function is very important to our country. Meaning, it is also my honor to be able to contribute to the country in this matter!"
"I know you are a good boy!" Song Lao said with relief, "Actually, the above discussion has been conducted half a month ago, and my proposal has been unanimously passed. Therefore, now the relevant scientific research institutions have actually taken action. Cheng's plan is actually relatively mature, and our country has made great progress in materials over the years. I heard from old Cheng that there are basically no bottlenecks or difficulties in this space station combination. Now there are many The departments are working together in a race against time!"
Xia Ruofei smiled and said: "Grandpa Song, you don't have to worry so much. Quality should be the first priority. Even if you wait a few more days, I can still afford it."
"Quality naturally comes first." Song Lao said, "but they also attach great importance to efficiency, multi-department collaboration, and many processes go hand in hand, which can save a lot of time. These are our comrades in the aerospace industry front. The experience summed up through years of practice is very effective.”
When Song Lao said this, he patted Xia Ruofei on the shoulder and said, "Ruofei, Lao Cheng has already booked me a ticket, and they must have completed the manufacturing and testing of the entire space station assembly within the time frame you mentioned. Work. At that time, you will need to work hard..."
Xia Ruofei smiled and nodded and said: "I have absolutely no problem here, and the comrades in the aerospace system have any specific requirements, and even some parts that need to be assembled in space, can be handed over to me to complete, as long as a detailed Just give me the tutorial and steps!”
When Xia Ruofei said this, he explained with a sincere smile on his face: "I know that it is dangerous for our astronauts to work in space, and the extravehicular space suit is also relatively heavy, and some work is completed. There are also difficulties, so if necessary, some post-production work can be handed over to me!"
"That's great!" Song Lao said, "I will immediately give Lao Cheng your feedback. By the way, regarding the transfer of the final space station assembly, the comrades in the aerospace system also have a request..."
