Chapter 1807 Urging marriage

Chapter 1807 Urging marriage

Landao City, Lanqin New Garden. Ye Family Villa.

"Xiaoyuan, you are almost thirty now. When are you and Shiyun going to get married?"

Ye's mother was watching the Spring Festival Gala on TV.

But he kept muttering to himself.

Today is New Year's Eve.

It's rare for Ye Yuan to get together with his family.

The result was unexpected.

I had just sat down when my mother started urging me to get married.

"I'm still young, let's wait a little longer, now is a critical moment in the careers of both Li Shiyun and I.

Wait until we are stable again!"

Ye Yuan peeled an orange and threw it into his mouth.

Said vaguely.

"What the hell is stability! There's no end to making money, and our family isn't short of money now, so can't you give us a grandson to take care of?"

When Mr. Ye heard his son say this, he immediately became unhappy.

"Don't you have Xiao Yechao?

How come one child isn't enough for you two old people to play with?"

Ye Yuan waved his hand and hugged little Ye Chao, who was already able to walk unsteadily on his own, into his arms.

Then he said with a smile.

“You kid, Xiao Chao is not your grandson no matter what.

Mom is still thinking about seeing her granddaughter-in-law come home.

At your speed, I don’t think I’ll be able to wait until that day.”

Mother Ye turned around and snatched back the little guy who was giggling because of Ye Yuan's amusements.

Then he said with a complaint.

"Come on, you two elders are only in your 50s, right?

You can still live for at least 50 years, why are you in such a hurry?

Not to mention your granddaughter-in-law, you can see my granddaughter-in-law."

It is rare for the family to get together during the Chinese New Year, so Ye Yuan doesn’t want to make the old couple angry today.

"Ah! We used to worry about our family when we had no money. Now we have money, but we still worry about it. These days..."

However, Ye's mother ignored her son's teasing.

Instead, he complained on the side.

"You old woman, it's New Year's Day, why are you talking about all this nonsense?"

In this way, Ye Yuan spent New Year's Eve at home being urged to get married.

Ye Yuan finally realized that the older you get, the weaker the New Year atmosphere becomes.

Although there is a new little Ye Chao in the family.

But the New Year atmosphere now is really not as good as when I was in Yuwan Island.

Because this year Li Shiyun went to the Kangaroo Country to spend the New Year with her parents.

So on the first day of the New Year, he did not rush to Beijing.

I stayed at home with my parents for another two days.

It was not until the third day of the Lunar New Year that he took his own plane to Beijing.

It’s realistic for you to wish a happy new year to several elderly people.

This has become a habit formed over the years.

Mr. Xu, Mr. Zhao, and Mr. Hua, these three old men are easy to deal with.

When he arrived at the door of Mr. Song's house, Ye Yuan was a little hesitant.

My cheap master.

If he knew that I had taken his precious daughter away, would he beat himself?

Forget it, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain.

Ye Yuan gritted his teeth and knocked on the door of his hometown.

It was Song Ran who opened the door.

When he saw Ye Yuan, the emotions that could not be concealed in his eyes were about to overflow.

"How did you come?"

Song Ran asked in a low voice with a blushing face.

"Can I come every year?"

Ye Yuan did not hear the strangeness in Song Ran's words and spoke carelessly.

"Who is it? Xiao Ran."

Just as the two of them were still standing in front of the door chatting.

But Song's mother's voice sounded behind him.

"Ah! Yes... Ye Yuan came to wish my dad a happy new year."

After hearing their daughter's words, the old couple came out of the living room.

I saw Ye Yuan holding a bunch of gifts.

But Mr. Song couldn't stop smiling.

"Just come if you want, why bring these?"

Mr. Song was really happy.

When he took in Ye Yuan, he just valued this little guy's strong comprehension and extraordinary talent in making furniture.

But who would have thought that the little guy has such a good character.

Every Chinese New Year, he would come to visit me.

Even some ordinary festivals.

Although I can't come in person.

But the gift is also indispensable.

The old man doesn't care about these gifts.

But it is still very happy to have a younger generation who cares about me.

It's because his precious daughter is busy in various film crews all day long.

Never knew what holidays are?

"Xiao Yuan, it's getting dark!"

Mother Song held Ye Yuan's hand, looked at his wheat-colored skin and spoke enthusiastically.

"Hehe, I'm a fisherman, it would be abnormal if I turned white, right?"

Ye Yuan joked.

While letting Song's mother pull him to sit on the sofa.

"You are 28 this year, right?"

Mother Song asked Ye Yuan with a smile.

"I'll be 28 after the Chinese New Year!"

Ye Yuan nodded, not understanding what the old lady meant by suddenly asking about his age.

"You are already 28! My Xiao Ran will be 31 after the Chinese New Year. Please help me persuade her that girls should get married early.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to have children when you are older!"

Good guy.

Song's mother really doesn't consider herself an outsider.

They actually joined forces and wanted to help them force them to get married?

It seems that Song Ran suffered the same treatment as himself this year.

Ye Yuan couldn't help but smile.

"why are you laughing?"

Song Ran gritted his teeth and kicked Ye Yuan viciously.

"You kid, Xiaoyuan is a guest, why do you treat him like this?

Go! Give Xiaoyuan some of those cherries you bought!"

Mother Song glared at her daughter.

Then he turned his head to Ye Yuan again:

"Try this. Xiao Ran brought this back and said it was from New Zealand. Behold, it tastes different from what I bought at the morning market."

Song's mother is probably the type of person who usually stays at home alone and doesn't talk.

I finally got to see Ye Yuan today.

He started talking nonstop from the moment he walked in.

"You old woman, why are you saying all this? People have come a long way to see us, so just say less."

Song's father is the same as Ye's father.

They all have the style of a patriarch.

I rarely talk at home.

But as long as he opens his mouth.

Others at home should shut up.

"Xiaoyuan, have you created anything good recently?

I can tell you, craftsmanship requires constant practice, otherwise once you lose your skills, it will be difficult to get them back."

What Song's father was concerned about was whether Ye Yuan's carpentry skills had improved.

Ye Yuan is not pretentious either.

Just take out your phone.

During this time, he built a yellow rosewood moon-shaped door cover canopy bed on the island.

This is a representative work of classic Suzhou Ming-style furniture.

The craftsmanship of Ming-style furniture is sophisticated and reasonable, and all parts are connected with precise and ingenious mortise and tenon joints.

The large flat panel is embedded in the frame groove using the edge-assembling method. It is solid and strong and can adapt to changes in temperature, dryness and humidity.

The proportions of height, width and length may be based on practicality and aesthetics, or may help correct improper sitting posture.

The decoration is mainly plain, with small areas of lacquer carving or openwork carving in some parts, which sets off the simplicity with complexity. It is plain but not crude, exquisite but not complicated.

The overall outline and the outline of the decorative parts emphasize the use of square within circle, circle within square, and the use of lines that are continuous yet have small twists and turns, with lines that are vigorous and fluent.

The overall length, width and height of the furniture, the balance between the whole and the parts, and the parts and the parts are all very appropriate.

Suzhou Ming-style furniture has four major characteristics: "rigorous structure, smooth lines, exquisite craftsmanship, and bright lacquer."

It is unique for its distinctive artistic style and local characteristics.

Rigorous structure means that the furniture is constructed through the use of mortise and tenon techniques, focusing on the integrity of the structure and the balance of force.

Smooth lines mean that the appearance of the furniture is mainly lines, with very few carvings.

Excellent craftsmanship means that every process including material selection, ingredient matching, carpentry, polishing, painting, etc. is done with great care and is impeccable.

Bright lacquer refers to the fact that the furniture is painted using the traditional raw lacquer technique, and through more than a dozen meticulous processes, an effect that looks like lacquer but is not lacquer is achieved.

It can be said that with Ye Yuan’s current craftsmanship, it is really not difficult to make a qualified Suzhou Ming-style furniture.

But the reason why he still took out the photo of this work to show Mr. Song.

That means there is another deeper meaning.

If it were just a simple piece of Suzhou Ming-style furniture.

He doesn't have the nerve to show off his treasure.

"Did you design this?"

After Mr. Song looked at the photos on his phone.

That was a real surprise.

I can’t wait to go back to Blue Island with Ye Yuan.

Go take a look at the work of this student of yours.

There's no way, this guy is simply a genius.

He not only perfectly reproduced all the techniques of the Huanghuali moon-shaped door cover and canopy bed.

What's more thoughtful is that modern streamlined elements are incorporated into the original design.

Perhaps such a work is indeed a bit out of place in the eyes of some "old artists".

But in the opinion of Mr. Song, who is good at business.

It's a perfect combination.

As we all know, Ming and Qing furniture has been popular in recent years.

It has doubled the value of many antique furniture.

But in Mr. Song’s opinion, furniture is for people to use.

Although the collection value of furniture that has become a collectible has increased, it has also lost its practical value.

Most of those who are keen on Ming and Qing furniture are middle-aged people who have achieved success.

For young people.

Ming and Qing furniture is not only expensive and impractical, but also not in line with their aesthetic taste.

This also leads to the fact that Ming and Qing furniture is popular, but not sought after by young people.

Ye Yuan designed this Huanghuali moon-shaped door cover canopy bed.

It not only takes into account the characteristics of Ming and Qing furniture, but also incorporates modern streamline elements.

I believe if it can really be produced.

It will surely be loved by people of all ages.

This is the path that craftsmen should take.

They not only have to inherit the fine skills of their predecessors.

We must continue to innovate in this technique.

Only in this way can the things passed down by our ancestors keep up with the times.

So as not to be submerged in the torrent of time.

"Not bad! Really good. You have now moved beyond the simple imitation stage."

Mr. Song believes that his craftsmanship is not inferior to Ye Yuan's.

But in terms of carving and innovation.

At this moment, Ye Yuan was far ahead of himself.

I really can’t stand it anymore.

Mr. Song felt emotional.

I have never heard of that smile on his face.

After all, this is the disciple I chose myself.

The higher his achievements, the greater his reputation in the circle.

"You old fool, Xiaoyuan is here to visit, but you're talking about your furniture again."

Song's mother scolded with a smile.

It made everyone burst into laughter.

After having lunch at the Song family, Ye Yuan left Mr. Song’s residence accompanied by Song Ran.

. . . . . .

A villa on the third ring road of Beijing.

Ye Yuan just walked in.

Then I saw Doudou running towards me.

"Why did you leave the little guy at home alone?"

Ye Yuan directly hugged the little black Shiba Inu that flew into his arms.

While helping him comb the dog's hair, she looked at Song Ran who was changing his shoes.

"My mom is allergic to dog hair, so the little guy has to suffer."

Song Ran shrugged his shoulders, changed into comfortable slippers, and walked straight past Ye Yuan towards the room.

Doudou, on the other hand, made a pitiful sound of 'woohoo'.

It was as if she was telling the male host about the grievances she had suffered during this period.

Originally according to Ye Yuan’s plan.

We have to stay at Song Ran's house until at least the fifth day of the New Year.

Finally, both of them have some time to be together and improve their mental strength.

As a result, a phone call interrupted his original plan.

"Brother Yuan, are you at Sister Ran's house?"

On the other end of the phone, Mu Qiang asked with a smile.

“You second-generation people, do you all like to pay attention to other people’s privacy?

Why do I feel like every time I come to Beijing.

There are no secrets?"

Ye Yuan was lying on the bed.

While playing with the soft hair of the beauty on his chest.

While complaining.

"Hey, this is not a secret.

I think it’s hard not to know.

What's more, there are many celebrities living in Sister Ran's villa area.

Recently, a man came to Sister Ran's house. This is no secret in the circle."

Mu Qiang reminded half-jokingly.

"Oh my god! Are celebrities so gossipy?"

Ye Yuan didn't expect this.

I originally thought that my every move in Beijing was being monitored by someone.

In the end, it was those gossip-loving celebrities who revealed their whereabouts.

This was something he didn't expect.

“Hey, celebrities are also human beings.

They are very ferocious when eating melons, so let’s not talk about those guys.

Brother Yuan, do you have time?

My old man wants to see you!"

Mu Qiang finally revealed the purpose of his call.

"see me?"

Ye Yuan was stunned at first, but he quickly reacted.

Within this one year.

Not only did he and Mu Qiang establish a friendship.

The establishment of a community of interests has also been completed.

And as the real boss of the Mu family.

It is also right to see yourself.

Mr. Xu had talked about this with him before.

That is, he is very popular among some elderly circles.

Not only because Ye Yuan’s skills completely hit the spot for these old guys.

The most important thing is that Ye Yuan is Master Hua’s last disciple.

As people get older, their bodies will develop various problems.

Although this group of people have their own medical team.

But this group of people also respect traditional Chinese medicine masters like Mr. Hua.

But Mr. Hua is older than this group of people.

So unless it's a life-and-death moment.

Normally, Mr. Hua rarely takes action.

Now make friends with Mr. Hua, his last disciple.

Not only can you please Mr. Hua.

The most important thing was Ye Yuan’s superb medical skills, which really forced these old guys to take him seriously.

Even in their circle, a saying has spread.

That is, although Ye Yuan is young, he specializes in treating difficult and complicated diseases.

This has also been recognized by Mr. Hua.

Therefore, Ye Yuan’s current status has completely moved beyond the realm of a tool.

He has become the object that many old guys are vying to make friends with.

Ye Yuan was very happy about this.

After all, these people have enormous power.

Even though we are all unemployed at home now.

But their voice is not weak at all.
