【Extra 14】
Xia Cheng had no objection, and Xia Canghai asked his granddaughter to make his own decisions, so no one else in the Xia family said anything more.
A few months later, while Shi Jian was free, Xia Cheng took her boyfriend home.
After a meal, the people in the Xia family were extremely satisfied with Shi Jian. As for Qi Ning's attitude, they thought it was acceptable for Shi Jian's sake.
"I wanted to meet and chat with your parents before. Academician Qi has a relatively avant-garde personality, but he feels that parents don't plan to interfere in the marriage of their children." Xia's mother still felt a little uncomfortable, thinking that Qi Ning had neglected her daughter.
Shi Jian smiled softly, "My parents educated me differently than many parents. They regarded me as an independent person, not their subordinates."
"..." Xia's mother couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, "Indeed, but sometimes the opinions of her parents are also very important."
Shi Jianhan nodded with a smile, "Maybe, my dad said that no two people have the same life trajectory, so just walk your own life path well. There is no need to walk along the pace of elders. If you cannot open up a new path, your future achievements will be limited."
Is this young man here to sabotage?
Xia Cheng looked at her boyfriend with a smile, without saying a word to help her mother.
It is a collision and exchange of thoughts. If she stands next to her mother and denies the educational style of the Qi family, she thinks it is inappropriate.
No one forced anyone, so there was no need for her to interrupt.
"Where do you live after marriage?" Xia's mother changed the topic.
"Xia Cheng said she could live in an old house. The Qi family's old house is very big and can live in it."
Mama Xia secretly glared at her daughter, "Do you don't have your own house outside?"
"No!" Shi Jian was honest. "I usually live in the institute most of my time and go home in my spare time."
Mama Xia pondered, "This young man has no house to get married, so it doesn't seem appropriate."
"I don't have any demand for this, it depends on what Xia Cheng means."
Xia Cheng looked at her mother and smiled and said, "I want to live in the old house of Qi's family, which is very crowded."
Mother Xia regrets that she is not strong enough, but her daughter is willing, so she naturally won’t pretend to be a bad person.
The housing prices in the imperial capital are not expensive, and with the ability of her daughter, it is easy to buy a few or two houses. She just thinks that it seems too casual to marry her daughter like this.
When he sent him off, Jian left and returned home, he was pulled and told by Xia’s mother.
"Are you stupid? At least you should have a house when you get married. I don't care whether it's a luxury house or not. It's okay to have an ordinary small family. If you live in the old house of Qi and be with your parents-in-law, can you be at ease?"
"Is it because I don't have enough money? I'm rich here. I'll buy one for you on the new property."
"Oh." Xia Cheng pulled her mother to sit down in the living room, "What are you doing before? The house doesn't matter."
"Hey, you kid, am I doing this for myself? I don't ask you for anything else. The worst and worst must have a house. Do you really want to live with your in-laws?"
"I think it's pretty good." Xia Cheng didn't think there was anything wrong with living together, after all, Aunt Qi's personality is really straightforward.
"It's not that mom said something discouraging. What if you divorce in the future? Then you will leave the house with nothing. How much loss will you suffer in your life? Have you ever thought about it?"
Xia Cheng couldn't help but open her mouth and laughed out loud, causing Xia's mother to slap her on the thigh twice.
"Mom, let me say the most sincere thing to you. My life is not as valuable as Shi Jian's life. He is engaged in scientific research. I am just a perfume. The meaning is different. The ten life I combined are not as valuable as Shi Jian's life in a year. Don't worry, I can't suffer any losses."
Mama Xia opened her mouth, trying to refute but didn't know what to say, and in the end she just glared at her daughter in anger.
"I'm a villain, I don't care about you anymore, just mess around with it yourself."
Xia Cheng held his mother's arm intimately, "Mom, I like Shi Jian, I really like it. And I am willing to compromise for Shi Jian, and even be his good wife. There are very few parts of his life that belong to me, and he belongs to this country. I think it is worth it to be able to participate in such a person's life."
"It may be very tired." Xia's mother sighed softly, "Your dad is not a scientific researcher, but your grandfather is. At the beginning, your grandmother basically took care of her children by herself, but she endured a lot of hardships."
"As a citizen of the country, he contributed to the country in front, and I became his harbor in the back, which could be regarded as indirectly contributing to the country. This is a meaningful thing and I don't feel miserable. Now smart stewards can be seen everywhere, and even if I have children in the future, I will not lose myself. Don't worry."
What else can Mama Xia say?
Four years later, Shi Jian and Xia Cheng got married. Xia Cheng followed up the wedding throughout, and neither of the parents of both families were affected.
The second year after marriage, their children were born and the smart nanny went online to take care of the children. The couple's life was almost unchanged.
Many years later, humans broke through the blockade of the star system and entered the vast space.
The hero who broke the barrier of the stellar system was Shi Jian, who also became the greatest scientist after Qi Ning and Luoxinghu.
**
One morning in late autumn, a flying car arrived at one of the aerial villas floating above the imperial capital.
The car door opened, two men and two women got out of the car and saw the butler standing in front of the villa.
The housekeeper was wearing a black suit, and his two rabbit ears would occasionally shake twice. He was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his high nose. His azure pupils were like the blue sea, extremely handsome.
"Reporter from CCTV?" the butler stepped forward and said.
"Hello, I am a CCTV reporter Guan Qing. I made an appointment with Ms. Xia last month for today's interview."
"Please ask me inside, the wife is already waiting in the flower room." After reading their ID, the butler took them into the villa.
The villa is very beautiful, with rockery flowing water surrounding it. Occasionally, you can hear the soft cry of cats. The flowers see butterflies flying, and the kitten jumps up and wants to catch it. Finally, they plunge into the flowers and thrust constantly.
Seeing Guan Qing's eyes falling on the kitten in the flowers, the housekeeper smiled and said, "This is the kitten raised by Miss Sun, and its name is Jasmine."
"Is it Miss Shi Yaoguang?" Guan Qing said.
“That’s right!”
Shi Yaoguang is Mr. Shi Jian’s granddaughter and is also a top actress at present, with a total of more than 300 million fans.
The group followed the wooden Jiuqu corridor to the backyard, and there was a glass flower room not far away.
"Madam, the reporter from CCTV has arrived."
Soon, a woman with elegant face and dignified demeanor stood up from the flowers and looked at them with a soft smile.
"Hello, Ms. Xia, I am the reporter who made an appointment with you last month."
"I remember." Xia Cheng greeted them onto the terrace.
The terrace is built on top of a thick old tree. Even in late autumn, the old trees are still lush with branches and leaves, covering up the sunshine sprinkled above their heads.
The terrace is quite spacious, surrounded by wooden guardrails, and a spiral staircase surrounds the tree body.
The housekeeper brought tea and desserts. The tea is green tea, and the desserts are also exquisitely shaped Chinese desserts.
"Ms. Xia's housekeeper is so beautiful." Guan Qing sincerely envied.
Xia Cheng glanced at the rabbit butler standing next to him and said with a smile: "This was chosen by Yaoguang's child."
Guan Qing nodded, "We all know that Ms. Xia is the most famous perfumer now. How did she get into this industry?"
"My sense of smell is more sensitive than that of ordinary people, and I have liked all kinds of flowers since I was a child and liked the aroma. However, flowers have their own flowering periods, and later I wondered whether the fragrance of these flowers can be preserved for a long time."
"This is a very romantic idea." Guan Qing is also Xia Cheng's true love fan.
"Ms. Xia and Mr. Shi have been married for so many years, have they always had a good relationship?"
Xia Cheng looked at Guan Qing and showed a clear smile.
"We are in a free relationship. We are very busy with our work every year. We spend almost a month together every year. We have experienced countless small separations and better than newlyweds. Moreover, Shi Jian and I are both rational people. We know that quarrels are the most waste of time and energy. If we think about this, we will not have conflicts."
The interviews afterwards are just casual, and basically Xia Cheng is recalling the past.
This interview is about Shi Jian’s documentary material.
"I don't spend much time with my in-laws, and it's actually not easy to say about filial piety. It's because they prefer the two of them. My mother-in-law is a person who can do whatever she wants. Her life is wonderful and can be enviable when she says it. It's also because of this that it has affected Shi Jian's life. My husband has been very independent since childhood. Whether it's study or life, as long as it is not a matter of principle, his in-laws never interfere."
"Later we had children and we also learned scriptures from my mother-in-law. My three children and I never had any unpleasant problems because of their own problems."
"I saw someone online that the little princess of the Shi family went to act, which was depravity."
When Guan Qing heard this, she asked, "What did Ms. Xia think?"
"I have no idea. Yaoguang likes acting, and this job is not illegal, nor is it shameful. I naturally support it."
Guan Qing said: "I know that none of your three children have entered the entertainment industry. With Mr. Shi's influence, many ordinary people think that Miss Shi seems to have a little bit of a loss in her own value when she enters the entertainment industry."
"Do they think Yaoguang should also do scientific research?" Xia Cheng smiled.
Guan Qing nodded.
"Actually, there is no need. At work, you still have to like it yourself. If you don't like parents, you force your children to do something, this is not a child, but a puppet. Since my mother-in-law's time, the family education has always been very open-minded. I think Yaoguang's acting skills are still very good."
Guan Qing couldn't help but nodded with a smile, "Yes, Miss Shi has won many awards."
Xia Cheng said: "We didn't manipulate the awards behind our backs, they all got them themselves."
Guan Qing couldn't help laughing.
It was a pleasant chat with Xia Cheng. This nearly two hundred-year-old lady’s insights on life always made Guan Qing understand instantly.
At noon, Xia Cheng invited them to have a simple meal at home, and the four of them were preparing to leave in the warm afternoon sun.
Walking to the door of the villa, a low-key flying car slowly landed, and a woman with a tall and long legs that could not hide her bright colors even with sunglasses.
When the woman saw Guan Qing and others, she was stunned for a moment, took off her sunglasses and walked forward, hugging Xia Cheng.
"Grandma, do you miss me?"
"Are you finished?" Xia Cheng smiled so hard that she couldn't stop smiling when she saw her granddaughter.
The two grandparents and grandchildren saw off several reporters and walked into the villa hand in hand.
Guan Qing looked at them through the car window.
I don’t know what Shi Yaoguang said, which made Xia Cheng laugh and bent.
Everything, the years are peaceful and prosperous, just like the prosperous times.
