Living and working in peace and contentment through the past and the present

When it comes to the Ling family, they are not well known to the general public, because the Ling family always likes to keep a low profile because of their particularity. The Ling family and the Yu family have known each other since three generations ago, so the two can be regarded as family friends.

What the Ling family does is not simply serving as soldiers. All of the Ling family join the army, regardless of gender, but none of the soldiers they serve are ordinary. Everyone holds an important position in the army. Moreover, the Ling family also Holds the lifeblood of the army, arms.

The Ling family is engaged in scientific research, and specializes in developing new weapons for the army.The old man Ling in Ling Yun's mouth is her grandfather, and also the founder of the Ling family in the military. His name is Ling Zhiyuan. The talent in weapons has completely become the most influential and powerful weapons expert in the country.

Originally weapons experts had nothing to do with calligraphy and painting, but the Ling family was a scholarly family for three generations. Ling Zhiyuan devoted himself to weapons research as a scholar at that time. Although he has been dealing with weapons for so many years, he has always liked his country. Calligraphy and painting, I have been busy with scientific research in the early years. In recent years, I have been fond of painting and collecting after retiring at home.

Ling Zhiyuan has not been in the calligraphy and painting circle for a long time, but his evaluation of calligraphy and painting is very precise. People in the calligraphy and painting circle often rush to his house to get a word of his evaluation. Naturally, few people can squeeze Go in, the door of Ling's house is not for casual entry.

This time Ruan Li became famous quickly, and Ling Zhiyuan had a lot of reasons for it. He heard from Ling Yun that the artist he admired held a solo exhibition, and he specially spared a day to go to the City Art Museum to see the exhibition. After watching the exhibition, he made a satisfactory evaluation, "Ruan Li is the most talented and aura painter I have seen in recent years."

With a word from him, Ruan Li quickly became famous without knowing it.However, the news leaked out very quickly, and within a few days, the price of Ruan Li's paintings had soared, and Yun Lianxuan's reputation had also increased greatly.Therefore, no matter how you look at it, Ruan Li must visit Ling Zhiyuan's.Ruan Li also has respect for Ling Zhiyuan.

Follow Ling Yun to Ling's house together, all the way, through the noisy urban area and then into the quiet suburbs, through the car window, Ruan Li looked at the scenery outside the window and felt that it didn't look like the suburbs, the wide road, the road There are evergreen pine trees on both sides, and there are occasional cars in front of it, which looks very small on the wide road.

Seeing Ruan Li looking out the window, Ling Yun said with a smile, "This is a military area, so the layout is a bit special. This is not a suburb."

"I see." Ruan Li smiled.

Ling Yun looked at Ruan Li and thought, Ruan Li's reaction was too calm, like someone who has seen the world. However, as far as she knew, Ruan Li came from the countryside. She should have been flattered, but she couldn't see such emotion on Ruan Li's face.She couldn't understand Ruan Li.This person gave her a warm and personable feeling, but he also gave her a cold feeling.Sometimes he feels all-round and exquisite, and sometimes he feels repulsed by others. He has experienced the contradictory feelings.

The jeep galloped on the wide road, and finally stopped in front of a gate. Two uniformed soldiers stood at the gate. After seeing the jeep, they saluted the car and opened the gate to let the car drive in. Curiosity aside, I have no sense of this representational power scene.The Ruan family is one of the most famous and famous families in the capital. He has seen many situations like this. If it weren't for the fact that the Ruan family had too much power, he would never have known the vicious, vicious, ambitious man who was full of spring on the surface, gentle and infinite on the outside. The second prince of the court, Long Mufan.

Thinking of Long Mufan, Ruan Li's face finally changed a bit. He imagined that Long Mufan who didn't appear in Xi Yelan would come up with some kind of moth to punish him... Thinking of the tragic situation of being punished by Long Mufan for so many years, Ruan Li Li really wanted to cry and roar against the car window, why would Long Mufan run to Hyundai?Go back to the Song Dynasty and take your position as emperor!

Obviously, Ruan Li couldn't do such a disrespectful thing, so he could only follow Ling Yun to visit Ling Zhiyuan with resentment.

Ling Zhiyuan is seventy-three years old. He has been honed in the army. His body is quite tough. He looks like a man in his 60s. The wrinkles on his face are deep, as if they have been carved. The whole person feels quite oppressive. , not the imposing oppression Duan Yunlian gives people, Ling Zhiyuan gives people the feeling that even if he stands still and doesn't look at you, you can't ignore his existence, the kind of people who have been honed in the army His aura of guiding the country is not comparable to that of an ordinary businessman.

Ruan Li could ignore Duan Yunlian's feeling of oppression, but he couldn't ignore Ling Zhiyuan's feeling of oppression.When he came in, Ling Zhiyuan was painting. If he ignored the fierce aura, Ruan Li thought that the old man in front of him was really an old painter.

Ling Yun called out respectfully, "Grandpa."

Ling Zhiyuan responded, "Well, here we come."

"Yes."

"Grandpa, this is Ruan Li."

Only then did Ling Zhiyuan raise his head from the painting to look at Ruan Li. Ruan Li suddenly felt the hairs on his body stand on end, and a chill rose from the soles of his feet. He called out loudly, "Old Ling."

Ling Zhiyuan was very satisfied with Ruan Li's neither humble nor overbearing, calm attitude. He nodded in satisfaction, put down his pen, withdrew his momentum, and sat down stroking his gray beard. He said in a thick voice, "Xiao Ruan is here, come and sit down." .”

This seemingly casual attitude well explained Ling Zhiyuan's appreciation for Ruan Li. Ling Yun felt relieved and said to Ling Zhiyuan, "Grandpa, you talk, I'll go down first."

"Go down first and ask Xiao Wang to bring you two cups of tea."

Not long after Ling Yun left, a man in military uniform brought in two cups of tea. After putting them away, he bowed and left.As a result, only Ruan Li and Ling Zhiyuan were left in the room.Fortunately, Ruan Li has met many dignitaries, so he was not nervous when faced with this situation. After taking a sip of tea from his cup, he handed over the scroll and said to Ling Zhiyuan with a smile, "Ruan Li is very grateful to Mr. Ling for his support. Ruan Li's great love, this painting was made by Ruan Li in his spare time in the countryside, I hope Ling Lao will like it."

Ling Zhiyuan put down the cup, took the painting and opened it. After reading it, he nodded with satisfaction, "Well, it's very imposing. It's really a good painting. It seems that Xiao Ruan has paid a lot of money to me, an old man."

Ruan Li really likes this painting very much. This painting is based on the late return picture painted by Fenglin Mountain. The theme of "Late Return Picture" is naturally taken from the villagers who set up stalls at the foot of Fenglin Mountain.

"Give it to Ling Lao, how shabby it is." Ruan Li replied with a light smile, curling the corners of her lips.

Ling Zhiyuan stroked his beard and laughed, and clapped his hands in praise, "You boy, you speak directly. Aside from the set of formalities, old man, I like direct people."

"Then respect is worse than obedience." Ruan Li grinned, with a handsome face, quite the demeanor of an ancient nobleman.An Zhuo once said that Ruan Li knows best what attitude to change under what circumstances. This kind of almost conscious judgment makes Ruan Li a fish in water in terms of interpersonal relationships. As long as people who know Ruan Li stay well with Ruan Li impression.

His attitude towards Ling Zhiyuan is quite different from his attitude towards Fan Qiyou. Although the change is not great, the subtleties are finely tuned.

Ling Zhiyuan is a soldier, and he likes the straightforward look, but for the first time today, he feels that someone with long hair looks good, he thinks, Ruan Li's long hair brings out all the temperament of him.He became more and more satisfied with Ruan Li, so he asked, "Xiao Ruan doesn't have a girlfriend yet, does she?"

Ruan Li thought for a long time before he remembered the meaning of his girlfriend. He thought, Ling Zhiyuan didn't want to introduce him to a girlfriend, he twitched in his heart, Ruan Li showed a faint smile on his face, his eyes were gentle, "I have lover."

"Oh?" Another Ling Zhiyuan was surprised, "You are already married at such a young age?"

"..." Ruan Li paused for a moment, then said with bent eyes, "It's not about age, finding the right person doesn't care about young or not."

"It seems that Xiao Ruan loves your lover very much."

"Yes."

Ruan Li likes to mention An Zhuo the most. Every time someone mentions An Zhuo, he becomes quite tender. That kind of tenderness from the heart is not pretended.Ling Zhiyuan looked at Ruan Li, and his affection for Ruan Li increased to another level. A man who loves his wife is definitely a good man, and there will be no major problems in his character.

However, when Ling Zhiyuan mentioned marriage, Ruan Li remembered that he and An Zhuo didn't seem to have a formal wedding ceremony. It seemed that they got together naturally after expressing their feelings.Thinking of this, Ruan Li couldn't help being slightly lost in thought, what kind of wedding should we hold?Who will host it?How is a modern wedding held?However, with An Zhuo's current situation, the simpler the better, the wedding was held before the child was born.

"Little Ruan, what are you thinking?"

"Ah?" Ruan Li came back to her senses, smiled apologetically and said, "Sorry, I lost my mind unconsciously when I thought of my lover."

"It's okay." Ling Zhiyuan was willing to accept this reason.

After recovering, Ruan Li had a good chat with Ling Zhiyuan this time about calligraphy and painting.During the chat, Ruan Li knew why many people in the industry were willing to get a comment from Ling Zhiyuan. Ling Zhiyuan had very unique insights into calligraphy and painting. This chat actually led to the friendship between Wangnian.

The two chatted until very late, Ling Zhiyuan left Ruan Li for dinner, Ruan Li stayed unceremoniously, after the meal, Ling Zhiyuan sent someone to send Ruan Li back, before leaving, he patted Ruan Li The shoulder said, "If you have any difficulties in the future, just ask Ling Yun for help, and remember to come and talk to the old man often."

"I will often come to bother old Ling."

"Haha." Ling Zhiyuan laughed, "I'd love for you to bother me. Ling Yun, send Xiao Ruan off for me."

Ling Yun led Ruan Li with a smile, and said while walking Ling Yun, "It seems that you and the old man had a good chat, I rarely see the old man so happy."

"Mr. Ling is a very funny person." Ruan Li praised.

Ling Yun chuckled and said, "Only you think so, the old man is very harsh to us."

"The elders always hope that their younger generations will be successful."

"Let's not talk about this." Ling Yun stopped, she looked at the street lights not far away for a long time before turning to look at Ruan Li, with Xiao Ran in her tone, "Yu Chi...how is he recently?"
