Chapter 857: 851. Chatting After Drinking (Seeking Subscriptions and Monthly Tickets)

Zhang Ran and the others did not go back to sleep, but instead sat on the sofa chatting.

"What do you all think of this young man, Liu Ming?" Zhang Ran asked.

This is perhaps a common ailment among the vast majority of parents; when encountering similar matters, they just want to ask for others' opinions.

Although he already had his own ideas in mind, even a person like Zhang Ran still felt a bit uneasy at this moment.

"I feel he's not bad. The key is that this young man truly likes Siyan; actually, this point is enough. If someone could treat our Xiao Qing like this in the future, I wouldn't be picky about anything.

I would rather have someone who likes Xiao Qing than someone Xiao Qing likes; that is too tiring and too aggrieved." He Yong had drunk quite a bit, so his words became more frequent.

At this time, He Qing had not left yet; she was pouring tea for the three of them, so she heard it too.

"Dad, how old am I? Isn't it a bit too early for you to say these things?" He Qing said with a smile.

After giving tea to the three of them respectively, she stood behind He Yong and helped him rub his shoulders.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Ran and Yin Long were both envious.

"Sigh, having a daughter is better after all," Yin Long said with a sigh.

Zhang Ran didn't say anything, but he was also a bit envious in his heart; his relationship with Zhang Siyan was also very good now.

However, because they had been separated for so many years, even if it was good, most of it was still respect and admiration for a father.

Plus, when their family reunited, Zhang Siyan was already married, and it was an unhappy marriage at that, so there was no way to be as close as He Qing.

Although He Qing had also been separated from He Yong for many years, He Qing knew that she had a father, and her father was not dead yet.

Furthermore, with the teachings of her grandparents and the stories from the older generation in the village, she had known since she was a child that her father was a good person and her mother was a bad person.

Because of this, even if He Qing didn't say it out loud, her feelings for her father deepened day by day under these circumstances.

Zhang Ran did not dwell on this issue; what was missed was missed, and there was no way to start over no matter what.

Unless he traveled through time again, and specifically to when Yu Qingwan was pregnant.

"Actually, I am quite satisfied with young Liu, but the fact that I am doing this is actually delaying him. Even if I make it up to him, if the final result doesn't work out, then..." Zhang Ran couldn't help but sigh as he spoke.

He had indeed done these things, but in reality, he still felt a bit bad about it. It was just that he could rationally control himself before, but now that he had drunk some alcohol and it was going to his head, some things involuntarily spilled out.

"Brother Zhang, don't think so much. Actually, this isn't a bad thing at all. If you really want to talk about it, young Liu is the one who gained.

Young Liu likes Siyan; this point is unquestionable. So no matter what, even if he doesn't end up with Siyan in the future, the wife he marries won't be the one he likes, so there is no difference.

Now you have given him this opportunity, and he has also entered a new social class in the future; the social status and wealth he has obtained have increased greatly."

"In this way, no matter what kind of girl he marries in the future, it will be much better than now. As for delaying him for a few years, what is the problem with that?

No matter who you give the choice to, they would choose this," Yin Long said.

"I hope so," Zhang Ran rubbed his brow.

"By the way, Dayong, how is your situation? Since Xiao Qing is here, what do you plan to do in the future? Don't tell me you plan to live your life alone.

Not to mention anything else, Xiao Qing will eventually have to marry; you can't live with your son-in-law, right? Have you thought about finding someone else?" Zhang Ran asked He Yong.

Zhang Ran was still very concerned about these matters around him; there had been too many things before, and he hadn't had the time.

It was just right to take this opportunity to have a good talk.

Before He Yong could speak, He Qing said, "Uncle Zhang, even if I get married, I won't..."

Before she could finish, she was interrupted by Zhang Ran, "Xiao Qing, I know what you mean, and I'm not doubting you. I'm just thinking that if your dad could have someone to take care of him, that would be a good thing.

Right now your dad can still follow me around, but there will eventually be a day when he gets old, and that day isn't far off. At that time, are you going to let him stay at home alone?

You can't be with him all day long, let alone every day; even being able to have a meal with your dad once a month would be good," Zhang Ran said very directly.

He Qing didn't speak again; she now understood that everything Zhang Ran said was true.

She was so busy now, but that was because she had been following Zhang Ran, so she could see her father every day and didn't feel it deeply.

After Zhang Ran finished handling some matters, he would also become more relaxed and would transfer some of the power and tasks in his hands to the siblings, Sicheng and Siyan.

At that time, He Qing would either be arranged to go out and serve as a main person in charge of a company, or she would remain by Sicheng's side and continue to serve as his secretary.

This was the best choice for her.

"Brother Zhang, I really don't think that much right now. If I really can't move anymore, I'll go back to my hometown; it'll be relaxed and comfortable there.

I'll hire a nanny at that time and enjoy myself," He Yong said with a chuckle; he didn't care about this at all.

Zhang Ran looked at He Yong, then looked at He Qing, and in the end, he didn't say anything more.

He knew some situations; He Qing's mother often contacted her. Although He Qing appeared very resistant at first, she couldn't withstand the long-term harassment from this woman.

After all, she was her biological mother; blood ties could not be erased.

The reason Zhang Ran knew these things was because He Qing's current status was important, and Zhang Ran paid attention to many of her affairs; He Yong knew this too.

"Forget it, I won't talk about you. Once Little Cheng is done with his busy work, I should find someone for him too," Zhang Ran said.

Li Cheng had been a bachelor all this time, and now that he had returned to his side to help him, Zhang Ran would also help consider these matters.

"I asked Little Cheng, and he said he's used to being alone and doesn't want to drag anyone down," He Yong said honestly.

Zhang Ran rolled his eyes at him and said, "That was in the past. Have you ever seen me bring this up before? It's different now. Now he has a stable job, and even if something happens, he doesn't need to be on the front lines himself.

Now that he's settled down, it's time to start a family. Although it's a bit late, having one is better than not having one."

The three of them chatted a lot about these issues; they were all trivial family matters, and the three old men still had plenty to talk about in this regard.

He Qing stayed for a while and then left, not wanting to disturb their reminiscing; this was a rare opportunity.
